Re: Starting Over (RiRiishtar)

Drake listens to her as she rants a bit and ended up revealing details about the accident. He looks at her and says, "I won't tell anyone but you should not hold stuff in. It can make you sick. I don't want you to get sick because of your emotions." He makes her look at him. "They are mad at me because I am willing to risi everything about our family to be with you. So they are kind of venting their rage out on you."

by Xuxa_Rene Sat Jan 08, 2011 10:44 am

Still surprised that Drake was able to get that out of her she licked her lips. Her body was in pain, she knew that he was right the doctors had told her that she needed to let it out but she just didn’t know how she knew that her mother and sister would want her to live but she didn’t know how, it was one of the reasons she wanted to try that cliff diving to see if that would make her feel alive and not so much like a zombie.

As he made her look at him she swallowed hard and blinked what he was saying still did not make any sense.

“What do you are willing to risk everything for me?” She shook her head “Drake you are not making sense. Do they not like me because I am from the big city? Or because of the accident?” She sighed “Family is everything I will not let you lose yours because of me” She looked up at him “You should go now, be with them”

by Guest Sat Jan 08, 2011 11:00 am

Drake looks in her eyes and says, "I know I am not making any sense to you. I don't know how to explain what I am trying to say to you words. It would be easier if I could just show you." He looks at her with sad eyes not wanting to leave her. He says, "I am not leaving you alone. The doctor said not to leave you alone for a few hours. So stop trying to get me to leave." He sits her down gently on the couch and says, "The accident does not matter to my family. As for the city girl thing, they don't care where people come from."

by Xuxa_Rene Sat Jan 08, 2011 11:27 am

“No you are not making sense” She said bluntly She shook her head “Sorry I just don’t understand but I didn’t mean to be rude” She allowed her self to be lead to the couch. She could tell now that he would not be leaving her she wasn’t sure how to take that.

“So they are just worried that I will corrupt you?” She shook her head and laid down slightly and looked at the TV “I am sorry if I fall asleep its been a long day and I think the doctors gave me meds to make me sleepy”

by Guest Sat Jan 08, 2011 11:50 am

Drake says calmly, "My family and I aren't considered normal. We survive by living as one. If one member feelings a connection with someone who is not like us, it risks the safety of all of us." He looks at her body was starting to grow tired. He says, "Go ahead and rest Brook. Maybe after you rest I can show you what I'm trying to say."

by Xuxa_Rene Sat Jan 08, 2011 12:24 pm

Yawning Brook looked at him "How would I or anyone be a risk to you?" She closed her eyes as he told her to rest she didnt like to leave him but her body was taking over.

She was only asleep for a few moments before she was surronded by the fire and her baby sister was screaming for her. She was tossing and turning moaning in her sleep.

Suddenly she woke with a start and sat up panting and her eyes wide open. She was sweating and licking her lips looking at Drake. "How long was I out for?"

by Guest Sat Jan 08, 2011 12:48 pm

Drake looks at Brook as she slept for a few moments before she seemed to slip into a nightmare. He looks at her upset that he could not ease that pain she carries with her. When she awoke with a start, he says to her, "You have only been asleep for a few minutes. Do you want me to get you something?" His eyes watch her calmly. (Don't forget the other rp I replied to.)

by Xuxa_Rene Sat Jan 08, 2011 8:17 pm

Slowly her breathing returned to normal and she licked her lips. She was ashamed that he know knew another secret of hers, the reason that she didnt sleep. To sleep meant to relive the accidnet over and over and hear the screams over and over and smell the burning it was just easier just not to sleep.

Brook shook her head at the sound of anything "No I dont need anything" She sat up and rubbed her face. "Sorry I know I am a bit of a mess, nightmares and all.

She sighed and looked at him "Is there anything you want?"

by Guest Sat Jan 08, 2011 8:43 pm

Drake looks at her with understanding eyes and says, "It is fine Brook. You have been through a trauma it is bound to effect you for a while until you face it." He was growing more hungry by the moment but he seemed to be able to ignore it because of his concern for her. "I don't need anything thank you though for the offer."

by Xuxa_Rene Sat Jan 08, 2011 9:16 pm

Brook was about to answer him when the front door opened her father walked in Brook stood to her father and her father smiled. "Well you do look a little better Brook" Brook nodded. "I am feeling a little better" Her father went to Drake. "Thanks for being here for her"

Brook nodded. "I will see you at school on Monday, or maybe before but my father is home now and I know your family must be worried about you now" Brook gently kissed her fathers cheek. And left the two alone she had a feeling her father wanted to tell Drake to at least take her out for dinner for her brithay to help her get out.

Brook meanwhile went to her room and flipped on her TV, seemed some show about vampires were on. She winkled her brow as they began to talk about them being called the cold blooded ones and had speed quicker then the speed of light. She shook her head thinking of Drake and how he was cold and how he had saved her by being so quick.

Turning on her lap top she did more investagating but it all said the same thing. Sighing she relized now it was very late and she walked on her balcony. Could Drake be a vampire?

by Guest Sat Jan 08, 2011 9:28 pm

Drake sighs as he watched her once again retreat to her bedroom. He says goodbye to her father and heads for home. On his way home, he goes into the lush forest and feeds off five deer before going home. His father looks at him as he comes through the door. He says, "You really plan on telling her..." Drake nods and goes up to his room.

by Xuxa_Rene Sun Jan 09, 2011 12:39 am

Still awake and feeling like she was being watched Brook backed away slowly into her room once she was back in her room Brook sat on her bed and turned on her laptop again and continued searching through legends of vampires it was all pointing towards Drake being one. She couldn’t believe it though; vampires were like Dracula with fangs and capes. She leaned back, but there was always spike, that was the vampire on TV right?

Sighing she gave up, there was no way without asking him and there was no way that he would admit it. She channel surfed until the sun came up, not wanting to risk another nightmare.

Then once she was sure it was late enough she got up, dressed and went down stairs.

“Morning Father I am just going to hang around town maybe paint” Her father raised a eyebrow

“Just stay away from the woods”

“Yes father I will” With that Brook gathered her painting supplies and left the house and walked to the cliff jumping place went to the edge and sat down and took out her pants and her canvas but she didn’t start painting not yet, she wondered if Drake would know that she was at this place.

All the information that she had read the night before was laying heavily on her, she wanted to know but if she knew, she also knew that Vampires fed on blood, mostly human blood.

At the same time she felt that he wouldn’t hurt or harm her. She licked her lips and found herself wondering if she could jump from here, not to die she couldn’t do that to her father but to feel alive again.

by Guest Sun Jan 09, 2011 7:49 am

Drake was up and about the woods when he had a weird feeling Brook was at the cliffs. He smiles and decides to go see if he was right since the cliffs were still a part of their land. As he walks to the cliffs and sees her. He appears behind her and says, "I didn't know you liked to paint." He was a bit worried about her.

by Xuxa_Rene Sun Jan 09, 2011 5:57 pm

Sitting there seeing the colors of the water and the surronding lands Brook forgot about the temptation to jump from the cliff and started to paint. She never drew the picture first always it made it seem more real. She was too lost in the painting to hear Drake approching she was humming and painting.

When he spoke she quickly turned to him. "Hello" She looked back and the painting. "I just do it for fun I dont think its that good" She shrugged and stood up brushing her pants.

"So was your family upset that you were with me so late last night?" She crossed her arms. She thought about the stuff she had read, and wondered if he really was what she was beginning to think.

by Guest Mon Jan 10, 2011 2:20 pm

Drake looks her calmly and says, "Well I think painting is very therapeutic and relaxing. I like to draw more though." He sits down on ground and watches her. "They weren't mad just a bit worried that I didn't eat. But I ate on the way home." He looks at her as the wind blows her scent around them. He relaxes a bit fighting his urge to hunt.

by Xuxa_Rene Mon Jan 10, 2011 4:54 pm

Watching him as he sat down Brook began to doubt what she had read. He couldnt be a vampire. She looked down at him wondering how she could test her theory. She could run into the forest but she was suppose to stay out of it. She felt the wind and how he reacted to it. Although she was unsure she sat beside him hanging her feet over the edge and picked up her painting.

"Well you can have it if you want when I am done" She added a few more colors, catching the sunrays on the waters and the rocks on the other side along with the trees" She signed the bottom. "Its a bit wet still so just let it dry."

by Guest Mon Jan 10, 2011 5:11 pm

Drake looked at her as she sat next to him. He could tell she was starting to figure out what he was. He asks, "Want to do something today? I need to go to the store and pick up a few new sketchbooks. I do not feel like spending the day in the house." He gently touches her arm and his touch was warm and more alive.

by Xuxa_Rene Mon Jan 10, 2011 5:41 pm

When asked what she wanted to do she looked at him. "Well I could use a little more paint and easles I would just have to check in with my father" She sighed as touched her this time his touch was warm so she doubted herself again. He was warm so how could he be what the webpage called "the cold ones" The touch to the arm made her feel a little uneasy just below the matriel of her hoddie were the ugly scars that coverved her arms.

She smiled and tried to act normal "So what store do you need to go to?" She wasnt ready just yet to leave here, it was a warm day but she didnt want to take off her hoddie. When he was ready she would just ask her father and drop off the painting supplies then go with Drake, if thats what he wanted.

by Guest Mon Jan 10, 2011 7:09 pm

Drake says, "They have a decent sized art store now so I just go there. Its about a half hour away from here." He sees her tense up by his touch and takes his hand away. He says,"I am sorry..." His body got the blood it needed and so he was warm. He says, "Is there anything special you want for your birthday?" He tenses up as her blood teases him again.

by Xuxa_Rene Mon Jan 10, 2011 7:27 pm

Shaking her head as he apologized for touching her she shook her head. “Its not your fault.” She licked her lips. “I am just a little self-conscious about my scars” The art store intrigued her she wouldn’t mind going to the art store, to pick up some more supplies she was running low and there were so many beautiful colours around and nature around here she would be going through a lot of paint, but Drake had not invited her yet and she wouldn’t just invite herself.

At the mention of her birthday she shook her head. “I really don’t need anything” She stood and smiled. “I should let you get to the art store though maybe I should just go home” It was a round about way for asking her if she could come along to the art store.

by Guest Mon Jan 10, 2011 8:02 pm

Drake stands up and says, "If you want to come along with me to get more paints and stuff, you can. I just didn't think you'd want to because I make you so edgy. I don't like making you that way." He offers her his hand. If she trusted him she would take his hand. If she didn't she would go home. He would leave it up to her.

by Xuxa_Rene Mon Jan 10, 2011 10:49 pm

Watching Drake stand up Brook wondered how she could find out if he was truly what she thought he was, the only way she could think of was in the day was to walk into the forest. He wouldn’t want her in there alone with all that lurked in the woods.

She smiled “I would like to go, but I have to let my father know where I am” She looked at his outstretch hand and sighed.

“Drake you do not make me edgy” She sighed again and slowly slipped off her sweater and showed him her scared up arms, marks from surgery, the scars from the glass and the fire covered her arms. “This is what makes me edgy” She looked away from him ashamed then quickly put the sweater back on and looked at his hand and placed her hand in softly “Are you sure you want to be seen with Frankenstein’s monster?”

Once they made it to her home she left a note for her father, grabbed her purse and turned back to Drake.

“So are you ready?” She placed her hand into his again. He made her feel good. It was an odd feeling; he made feel more alive she looked up at him. “That is if you still want me to come”

by Guest Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:07 pm

Drake looks at her scars and says, "You are not the only one whose haunted by physical scars Brook." He escorted her home and waited for her to take care of her painting stuff and grab her purse. He smiles as she puts her hand in his. He says, "Lets go." He holds her hand and opens the car door for her. Once she is in he drives her to the store looking pretty happy.

by Xuxa_Rene Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:18 pm

Although she was a bit taken back from his response, that she wasnt the only one with physical scars she knew that she wasnt the only one with scars. She hid the twinge of hurt that he had blown her.

She grinned as he opened the car door. "Such a gentleman" She looked at him as he drove. He looked different, a little more happy. Brook found herself smiling too. She licked her lips and looked out the window.

"So Drake how long have you lived here?" She wanted to get a little more info on him before she approched him about what she thought he was.

by Guest Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:36 pm

Drake smiled at comment as he had opened the door for her. He had told her that he was raised to be a gentleman. As he drives he listens to her calmly. He says, "Well my family moved here when I was about three years of age. But my family line has moving back and forth since before the civil war. So we not strangers to this town."
