Contemplation [PAN!!!] « Thread Started on Mar 23, 2008, 1:13am »
The stars and the full moon glistened in the sky, reflecting off of Roxy's creamy, pale skin. The grass was graced slightly with rainwater from earlier that evening, the air up at the cliff smelled like it did after a thunderstorm. The sky was clear and pure as Roxy made her way up to the top of the cliff.
For quite possibly the first time, Roxy was alone up there. Usually, there were others there; lovers in a car, teenagers on a date, sometimes some vampires went up there to tease people, but no. Not that night. Roxy was alone.
Sighing softly, she walked near the edge, though standing a few feet away from it. She crossed her arms across her chest, shivering slightly at the crisp, midnight air. Roxy looked down at the town, at the streetlights and headlights and business signs that made up where she lived with Danni.
Roxy was dressed down that night. She wore only a bit of mascara around her crystal clear, pale blue eyes. Her jet black hair was curly, and pulled back into a ponytail in the middle of the back of her head. Roxy wore a white camisole tank top underneath a black, zip up hoodie with thumb holes in the sleeves. To top it all off, Roxy wore a pair of dark jeans, ripped in the back, just below her butt, and on both of her knees, with a pair of her beat up Converse.
Her beautiful, confusing eyes looked around her as she stood there, thinking. The past month had been hard for Roxy. Her mother had died, she had died, she had gotten into a car crash, the owner of Tassel's was still missing, though she was still getting paid, and she had major writer's block.
Roxy had not told Danni where she was that night, although she had a feeling that he might know; he's just like that. Roxy sighed again. There were soo many things she wanted to change in her life. She wished that just for once, Danni wouldn't tear his gaze away from her, that just for once, all of his ADHD focus was on her. She wondered if they'd move in together, and when their next fight would be. Roxy wondered if she should yet tell Danni about Pandora, whom he hadn't seen because they had been mostly at Danni's apartment. Roxy wondered about her father, and how he has been, even though she had just talked to him a few hours prior.
A look of a mixture of worry, confusion and frustration graced Roxy's face as she shivered again. Maybe she had been so down lately because of losing her mother. Maybe it all had to do with Danni. Not only had they been in situations dealing with being possessed, but they had switched bodies between her, Danni and Giovanni, and a shape shifter had gotten involved. But still, Roxy always worried about Danni; sometimes she even forgot to worry about herself.
Whenever Danni was in a bad mood, it almost affect Roxy more than it affected him. She worried so much about him, she would go through so much to try to make him happy. Roxy knew that it was a mental problem, but she couldn't help but feel that she wasn't good enough.
Just for once, Roxy wished that she and Danni could just cut themselves off from the world for a little bit and be completely focused on each other. She wished that Danni would invade her private space at the right times. No matter if she said she didn't like something, Roxy almost always did, when it comes to Danni. She loved waking up to him kissing her. She loved that when she took his hands and try to push him away, he would hold on to her, pull her up to him and kiss her. Roxy loved how Danni fiddled with her hair and poked her bony hips and made fun of how skinny she was. She loved hearing compliments from him. Roxy loved Danni. It was as simple as that. And she tried sooooo hard to express that to him as much as she could, and then Danni made Roxy's heart melt, and she felt like she wasn't doing the same to him.
Roxy sniffled softly, finally realizing that silent tears had streaked down her face as she thought everything over. Her tears fell to the ground, augmenting with the rain droplets. With the back of sleeved hand, Roxy brought her hand up to her face and wiped the tears away, only to make room for more. Giving up quietly, Roxy simply stood there, her arms crossed in a poor attempt to stay warm, even though she had just fed, and let the tears slide down her porcelain cheeks.

Now it was unusual for a vampire to be crashed out on their sofa, sleeping at night instead of the day time, but his sleep had been interrupted during the day with his paranoid nightmares of someone coming to kill him. What a lovely life he led eh? When he had finally sensed that the sun had gone, he had changed into a long sleeved black shirt and deep blue jeans, and had soon fallen asleep on the sofa. Problem was, that after about twenty minutes, he had started periodically waking up, about every five minutes, often enough that he couldn’t actually get any proper rest at all.
Though he didn’t quite know what, something was secretly bugging him to the point at which he couldn’t get to sleep, and he hated that. So after having a been tantrum about it and throwing something, probably a mug or glass, at the wall in the kitchen, he had decided he would go out. Or rather, Giovanni had told him to go out and feed, otherwise he would probably wreck the apartment, and annoy his maker even further. Now dressed in his shirt and jeans, though both were rumpled and screwed up beyond recognition, oh and a pair of pull on boots, he looked quite a bit like someone who hadn’t got a lot of sleep, and who had eventually slept in their clothes.
He quickly found someone that he could feed from, a drunken woman. It satisfied his energy levels, meaning that he wasn’t just going to fall asleep where he stood, but he still couldn’t concentrate on anything, something was bugging him. Standing alone in the cold darkness, he stared at the red brick wall, contemplating putting his fist through it…though his hand would hurt if he did, he knew from years of hitting things like brick walls. Danni eventually came to the decision that it would have been a bad idea, and with a quiet growl, he turned away from it, just walking off into a random direction, hoping his subconscious might lead him to whatever was distracting him so badly that he couldn’t even sleep.
”Hi Danni!!” The sudden shriek of excitement nearly gave him a heart attack, and he looked to see who he was as he caught his breath, realising it was Gerald, one of his famous hallucinatory friends. Or fiends, yes fieds would have been more accurate really. He turned away and kept walking, ignoring the thing that was part of his subconscious, annoyed and sighing as Gerald cried like some sort of child and tugged at his jacket. He continued to ignore him, actually doing quite well, until Gerald started shouting something at him.
”What?”
He asked him blankly with a growl, seeing Gerald grin. ”Roxy’s at the cliffs.” Danni thought on it for a moment, before he nodded and kept walking, noticing Gerald disappear around the corner, apparently pleased that Danni had listened to him. Other people got hunches and feelings from things only their subconscious noticed, Danni had hallucinations tell him things. Really he should have been cold, in a scruffy, extremely thin shirt and jeans, but he wasn’t, he was actually quite warm, though that could have been from feeding earlier.
-cliffs-
Feeling a little tired, he looked up as he got up to the cliffs, seeing Roxy, the sadness that he felt from her touched him, made him stand in silence for a few moments. His jaw tightened in the slightest as he tried not to cry himself, though he didn’t know why she was sad, he just knew she was. In a moment he was behind her, leaning against her ever so slightly, though not actually putting any weight, just a little bit of pressure. Danni moved his hands to her hips, kissing her neck softly as she stood there, his entire energy showing that he was quiet from being semi exhausted, he wasn’t going to be running around like a loony.
”What is it?”
He asked her quietly, his words breathy, whispery, but almost shattering in contrast to the silence that had been before.

Roxy had beens o distracted by her thoughts that she didn't even feel Danni's presence behind her, until he was very gently leaning up against her. Immediately, Roxy brought a hand up from her side and wiped her tears away quickly, sniffling once and clearing her throat, as an attempt to appear better. Though, her cheeks were slightly flushed with pink, her eyes were faintly red, and her lips were bright.
Fierce chills shot down Roxy's spine, like a jab of ice, as Danni kissed her neck. His fingertips tingled at her hips. She looked over her shoulder slightly, listening to him speak.
"Nothing," she said, sniffling softly and giving him a small smile, "It's nothing."
Honestly, it almost was nothing....to a degree. Well, it was nothing that Roxy could put into words very well. She sighed quietly, running a hand over her curly ponytail. There was no way that Roxy could tell him what she felt without him getting his feelings hurt. He'd take it the wrong way, he'd get upset, she'd get more upset, and things would just go downhill from there.

He knew that she had been crying, but he didn’t really want to push her about it, if she didn’t want to admit to it or tell him, he didn’t care. Saying he didn’t care probably made you think that he didn’t give a shit about her, he did, he just didn’t mind if she didn’t want to reveal all her emotions to him all the time, wasn’t like he did anything different. Moving his arms around her waist protectively, letting his arms lie comfortably just under her ribs, he had his chin on her shoulder, the entire of his chest and stomach pressed against the curve of her spine.
Danni was overly sensitive at times, well,…most of the time anyway, he was often annoying towards other people, and easily irritated by things. He silently let her know that he was there if she needed him though as he hugged her lightly around the waist where his arms were, kissing her neck again on her jaw line. He adored Roxy, and although he wasn’t hell bent on having her be perfectly happy all the time, he was quite willing to help make her feel better, though more for her happiness than his own.

As Danni moved his arms around her waist and kissed her neck, Roxy continued to wait for him to say something, but he never did. By doing this, it only upset her more, though she tried to keep her poise and not say anything, fresh, new tears spilled down her face.
Turning around slowly in his arms, Roxy put her hands on his chest and leaned against him, tears sliding from her ears to the tip of her nose, and falling to the ground. Roxy put her forehead to his chest, right below this throat and sniffled again.
"Danniiiii-i-i-i," she said quietly, her word behind choked by sobs and sniffles. Tears increased their production rate, sticking to her top and bottom eyelashes like diamonds, some black mascara trailing down her cheeks now and then.

Like the faithful but not that subtle puppy that he was, he didn’t realise that she wanted him to say anything, but then again, ignorance didn’t excuse the fact that he must have been doing something wrong. Danni’s eyes widened as she moved around in his arms, putting her hands and forehead to his chest, still sniffling and crying. Keeping one arm around her waist, he moved the other one up so that he could stroke her hair comfortingly, having no idea what was wrong.
“What? …I…”
He looked lost, his tone slightly desperate in his desire to make her happy, or help her to make herself feel better. Danni knew what it was like to feel sad and depressed, and it was the last thing that he wanted her to feel.

To be honest, Roxy hadn't said Danni's name in order to get something across him. She didn't really know why she had said it, it was just one of those impulsive things one did when they were upset and looking for comfort.
That was all Roxy had been trying to do that week, look for comfort. The truth is...she hadn't gotten much of it. Sure, Danni was crazy upset after the accident, and he tried a little bit to make her feel better that night, and then he came home with a bad attitude and went psycho on her. Of course, that only made Roxy feel worse, which was contributing grately to her breakdown.
Roxy sniffled again, feeling his hand moving over the curls of her long ponytail. She sighed again and after a few moments, she stood up straight, though she didn't move her hands from his chest, nor did she move away from him.
"I'm sorry," she said softly, giving him a small smile, using the back of her sleeve to wipe her face, then replacing her hand on his chest, "The week's events are finally catching up to me, I suppose."
