Finding one who dissapeared.... (Closed)

[Hadrian]

Hadrian's eyes widened a little as he watched Dark, apparently that was the one of the two that was currently in control of their body, came in and started dressing Celeste. His formerly peaceful and content expression briefly flashed with anger as Dark started dressing her without even paying attention to her silent protests. She had just been beaten and her self-image was shattered and here was Dark just dressing her and seeing her naked without even making sure it was okay with her first. The nerve of these humans, such arrogant bastards all of them. Hadrian sighed again and closed his eyes flushing the feelings out of his system for the time being.

Hadrian followed, attempting to keep his anger in check as Dark just took control and began leading Celeste around without any apparent desire to hear what she wanted. Damn these humans, to think he had actually taken the time to waste breath on a thank you to this one. Hadrian shook his head a little as he followed them out of the bathroom and into the living room area. Apparently Dark had been busy preparing food and after he served Celeste he added that there was some left over for Hadrian if he wanted. This Dark was lucky that Hadrian had slashed his throat with his scythe yet for touching Celeste like that in front of him.

Then his eyes widened in a mixture of surprise, gratitude, and sadness as Celeste limped across the room to bring him a bowl of soup, "Celeste...you didn't have to," he whispered softly as he tasted the soup. Hadrian did not really mind what food tasted like as long it supplied him with the energy to kill or tend to Celeste's needs. Those were the only two things that mattered to him. "Celeste I never want you to have to put yourself through pain for me again," he said as he moved over to the bed and sat beside her.

"I am not worthy of that kind of sacrifice from you," he said as he ate the soup quickly. Hadrian had not realized until now that he had not eaten all day and despite his annyoance at Dark's presumptious, arrogant actions he ate because he needed the fuel to tend to Celeste.

[Drake Sevnik]

"Such jealousy is unnecessary to show from a brother," Dark murmured silently in Hadrian's ear but, he was surely not defenseless like Hadrian expected him to me and he certainly knew that Hadrian would tend to her tonight. There would always be other nights when Dark and Drake would care for her without Hadrian waiting and carrying that ominous threat. Both were prepared to fight Hadrian if that was what it took to win Celeste's hand once more as he opened the balcony door and gave a wink at Celeste.

"You already have one gaurdian tonight Celeste, another would be pointless, we'll be back tomorrow," Dark said sid to her as he leaped off the balcony-edge and snapped out his wings taking to the skies.

[Celeste]

Hadrian sat next to her on the bed and she smiled softly as she worked on eating her soup. Overall it was wonderful tasting and she realized now just how hungry she was. She began even dipping her toast in the soup with a soft smile as she looked over at Dark whispereing something in Hadrian's ear. After that he got up and Celeste sat her things down.

Azure got up from the window seat and flew into Celeste's lap. She giggled softly at the sweet little bug as she nuzzled it. But suddenly Dark said that she had a guardian for the night and that he was going to leave. She reached out a hand to him..

"Dar..." but he was gone and tears welled up in her eyes as she looked over at Hadrian. One tear fell down her cheek as she looked from the window back to Hadrian several times. No longer hungry she lay down on the bed. What had she done wrong now? She put her head under her pillow. She didn't deserve anything right now. Not food. Not touches. Not care. Nothing.

"What.. did I do.. now?" she asked herself softly.

[Hadrian]

Hadrian remained still, his eyes narrowing ever so slightly as Dark whispered in his ear. The nerve of this human to again be so arrogant as to presume that he had Hadrian's emotions figured out. Hadrian actually chuckled softly at how arrogantly presumptuous this boy was. He shook his head a little as he finished his soup keeping his eyes on Celeste. She was seeming to get better and eating a little more hungrily but then the boy Dark made another mistake. He left her after he whispered in Hadrian's ear, the girl was already feeling inferior and now Dark was not helping the problem by leaving on such a note.

Hadrian sighed softly and shook his head as he picked up his and Celeste's bowls and sat them down by the sink. He moved back to the bed as she lay there asking what she had done now. Celeste had felt horrible and her confidence was shattered when Angra beat her. She felt worthless and did not feel that she deserved any sort of love anymore all over a simple mistake. But now she had been showing signs of improvement, which was slow and fragile but it was improvement nonetheless. Until Dark's rash and presumptuous actions shattered that improvement.


Hadrian moved back to the bed and sat cross-legged beside Celeste. He gently picked her up and cradled her in his lap, stroking her hair gently, "Celeste you've done nothing wrong, I promise you," he whispered as he held her like a fragile, precious jewel that would shatter if he let it be exposed to the elements, "Dark does not understand the things that he has done and how rash he has been," he said softly, still cradling her gently, "He thinks I am jealous of him but it is not jealousy it is anger that I feel, anger that he could think it would be acceptable to start dressing you without asking permission...." he sontinued to whisper, stroking her hair gently and soothingly, "I am to blame for his departure and I apologize..." he said, looking away a little in shame at having caused Celeste further pain.

[Celeste]

Celeste felt Hadrian gather her in his arms holding her gently against him in his lap. He stroked her drying pink hair and she closed her eyes as she wept softly in his arms. She was hurting and it wasn't just physically. She hadn't gotten to tell Drake thank you for healing her wings. Or Dark for making her soup. She hadn't gotten to do either and now he had left. Maybe she should have said it sooner.

She closed her eyes and let him try to soothe her. He told her that it wasn't her fault that it was his for getting jealous and angry that Dark had dressed her like that. He looked away and she turned his face to look at her again. Staying in his arms safely wrapped up there she felt safe right now as if Angra couldn't hurt her again not right here or right now. Hadrian was tough she knew he was and he didn't feel physical pain.

She looked up into his eyes her own crystalline blue ones stared up into his crimision ones. She stroked his cheek with her thumb as she just stared up into his eyes. Blinking was the only thing that ever took her eyes away from his.

"Please.. don't leave me.. stay by my side." she whispered softly her hand never once faltering from his soft cheek.

[Hadrian]

Hadrian held her gently so as not to hurt her but let her grip him as tightly as she wanted as she cried into his chest. He held her against him, still soothingly stroking her hair as he attempted to soothe her. He could feel her pain and it was breaking his heart, he had not sadness and lack of self-worth like this at all during his time at the Academy. She did not hardly think herself worthy of living and it made Hadrian inwardly seethe with rage that Angra could make her feel so lowly about herself.

He smiled down at her gently as she cupped his cheek, looking up into his eyes with those innocent crystalline blue eyes of hers and begged him to stay with her in a whispered voice, "Of course I'll stay with you Celeste, I will stay with you until you get better. I promise Angra will never come near you as long as I am around, I'll never let him hurt you again my little one," he said, squeezing her gently as he kissed her lightly.

[Celeste]

Celeste let him hold her gently and she smiled softly. She felt safe here. She looked into his eyes. Those beautiful crimison orbs that seemed to hold so much pain. He could feel her pain she knew that no matter the fact that she was actively using her mana to block some of it from him which in turn kept her weaker than normal. Hence why Azure had been gone for a day because she had no free mana to give him.

She looked up at Hadrian when he told her he wouldn't leave her alone and she smiled. The kiss came and she closed her eyes for a moment returning it gently. But for some reason it didn't feel long enough. When he pulled away she followed. Moving closer she placed her hand in his hair at the back of his head and kissed him back softly and passionatly. This was a kiss they had never shared. She held this kiss for some moments near minutes as they held each other.

Why? She wasn't sure but right now she was running on impulses and a broken heart and a shattered soul. Right now he was her connection to this world and right now he was her all. Breaking the kiss gently her eyes opened and they were heady a bit filled with desire for another kiss.

"Move in with me." she whispered. "Please, don't leave me alone." she said as she ran her hand through his soft white lockes.

[Hadrian]

Hadrian's eyes widened faintly as she followed his head as he attempted to pull away from the kiss. She pressed her lips against his in a much more deeper and passionate kiss than they had previously shared. Hadrian had to admit he was pleasantly surprised by this recent turn of events as he wrapped his arms around her waist and drew her closer. Extending his wings he wrapped her in them as a symbol of his willingness to shield her from everything the world could try to do to her as he held the kiss.

His hands massaged her back, running soothingly over her badly bruised wing areas as he held he kiss. Hadrian tenatively forced his tongue into her mouth as he allowed the kiss to deepen, pulling her closer against him. His wings continued to shelter her as he allowed her to break the kiss and a small grin formed on his lips.

"I will move in with you for as long as you will have me," he said resting his forehead gently against hers as he held her tightly against him. He leaned in and kissed her again allowing some of his own passion to leak into the kiss. Normally Hadrian flushed his system of emotions through regular daily mediation. But now he was flooding with emotion and it felt good, normal. Hadrian was starting to wonder if he might put his practice of emotional neutrality on hold for a little while, at least as long as his stay with Celeste.

[Celeste]

Celeste felt him return the kiss and inside she smiled and relaxed in his arms. She continued to kiss him her hand running through his white hair gently her eyes closed as they shared this moment. His tongue worked it's way into her mouth and she let out the softest moan as her own tongue began to play back. She felt his wings come out and surround the both of them as he held her closely but gently. Finally breaking the kiss she lay in the cocoon of Hadrian's feathers and smiled softly looking up into his now black eyes.

He told her he would move in with her for a while. Keeping her safe and helping her live a better life. She smiled even more brightly at that. Her.. brother?.. or friend? Was coming to live with her and she couldn't help but feel a bit better about that. He kissed her again and this time his own passoin over flowed to her and she pushed her tongue into his mouth this time reversing their roles. She stroked his neck just the back and very lightly. The kiss held for several long minutes. She didn't want to break it ever. She felt so.. good and happy at that exact moment only a little guilty over what would happen if Angra found out.

Breaking the kiss gently she breathed heavily as her blue eyes looked up into his beautiful black orbs. She cupped his cheek gently. He was going to stay. He was going to live with her and she would be safe then. She knew it. He was.. her guardian angel.

"...Hadrian.." she whispered her voice filled with so many feelings and her breath still heavy from those kisses. She had not known what was right in front of her.

[Hadrian]

One hand left her back and reached up to stroke her cheek gently. He looked down at her, his normally blank and dead black eyes shone with caring and love for his little angel. He held her tightly merely looking into her eyes and stroking her cheek for several minutes. Hadrian too the opportunity to see how beautiful Celeste had become. He had either not been paying much attention to her physical appearance when he first saw her or she had been growing up under his nose this whole time.

Her heavy breathing told him that she too was feeling the stirrings of passion that their kissing had generated in him. Hadrian was seriously considering toning down his emotional neutralization mediation exercises for the time being. He had forgotten the power of emotions. His original intent had been to deaden them in order to make him a more efficient killing machine but he had forgotten how much power and determination emotions can instill in a person.

Hadrian shivered slightly as she whispered his name in her soft almost breathless voice. The feelings that her voice conveyed was what made him shiver. He could not hold out much longer against the passion and he pulled her a little closer, "My little angel..." he whispered softly as he started to place gentle, caring kisses up and down her neck.

[Celeste]

Hadrian whispered his nickname for her and she smiled. 'My little angel' it just fit so perfectly. It was just the sweetest sentiment she could think that she would want him to call her. She smiled softly but then he began to kiss her neck and she tilted her bruised face back letting him have more room to play. Her chest rose and fell in the soft linens of her shirt.

This felt so good. But why? She was with Angra. She wasn't supposed to like this. She was supposed to feel guilty. But she didn't and she wasn't sure if that was a good or a bad thing but right now with Hadrian's soft lips touching the skin on her neck she didn't care. Her hands ran through his feathers and hers were extremely sensitive she was about to find out if his were too.

While he played with her neck his own was open and she took the chance to lean in and began kissing his neck. Her soft lips began to carress the skin there around his beautiful white hair and just below his ear. Her hands continued to run through his beautiful ebony feathers that seemed to shimmer in the dying light. The moon was coming out and it had grown dark in her room but she didn't care she was much much too busy.

Up his neck her lips went until they reached his ear in which she began to nibble on his earlobe softly. One of her hands, the one not playing with his feathers began to stroke his white hair gently. This was getting rather heated so suddenly she should stop before it got too far. But that was the problem, it had already gone too far. They would either stop to sleep or they would end up doing a bit more. She didn't know how far they would go but right now she was only concentrating on making him happy.

[Hadrian]

Hadrian could not stop the gentle moan that past through his lips as she started to kiss his neck. Her lips were so soft and gentle as she kissed her way up and down his neck. Hadrian thought he could not feel pain but apparently he could most certainly feel pleasure as the sensations running through his body made him shiver with delight. He had certainly not been told of the pleasure that physical touch could bring. Up until know he had known only the manners in which to inflict pain and suffering through physical touch. While he preferred the direct path of physical pain and suffering, the slower mental toturing yielded much sweeter results.

However this was not the time for such thoughts. In front of him he had the only other of his kind and she was returning the affection he had for her. He moaned softly again as her fingers ran through his feathers. They were so sensitive and the feelings from her gentle stroking of his wings was even more intensely pleasurable than the kisses she was placing on his neck.

He gently pushed her back against the bed, planting a hard and heated kiss against her lips. He clasped her hands in his, pinning her to the bed. Hadrian broke the kiss, pulling just a few inches away from her mouth, breathing heavily, "Celeste..." he whispered softly, looking down into her beautifully pure and innocent blue eyes.

[Celeste]

Celeste kissed his neck over and over again. She felt bad for a moment knowing she was dating Angra but knowing right now that the gentle love that Hadrian was showing her suddenly called to her soul. He lay her down gently on the bed. She was still wrapped in his wonderfully soft wings his feathers cradling her softly.

Her own moan came out as he kissed her heatedly and passionatly. This was something she had never expected from Hadrian. Had he felt this way all along? She couldn't help but enjoy it though. Suddenly, she didn't mind the bruises so long as it had brought them closer. She remembered his story and it clicked. He really was her angel. The one that was saving her even as she thought about it. Breaking the kiss her eyes opened as she looked up at the man that was above her.

Her name was whispered out as she was still pinned to the bed but didn't mind in the least. She breathed heavily as she looked up into his beautiful black eyes.

"Hadrian.. have you felt this way always?" she asked in a soft whisper as she stroked from his cheek. Her nails raked his neck and down his chest gently as she wished his shirt wasnt there. She looked up at him as her fingers ran up and down his perfect body. They were in a very intimate embrace and she was smiling.

[Hadrian]

Hadrian's breathing had quickened and grown heavier and he had not even noticed. He had not realized how much power emotions had or how much influence they could have over one's body. Hadrian did not even feel like himself right now but of course he was with Cleste so it doid not matter. Being born and raised to nullify his emotions, he had not realized how much of a motivator they could be. He had always thought of emotions as a hindrance, something that could only get in his way and distract him from his purpose of being a killer. But now he understood what a driving force emotions could be. Of course he had have to keep them in check because they could also run rampant and then they could be a serious obstruction to his efforts as a killer.

But for now he was Celeste so now, his emotions would run free and unbridled. Had he always felt this way? He had come to this place just for her. For now though he had been content to play the role of the older brother and guardian so as to stay close to her. He only wanted the best for her and that was why he had voiced his suspcions about Angra. As it turned out he had been right about Angra, for now though he would leave that subject alone.

He caressed her cheek lightly with the back of his hand as he smiled softly, "I came here with these feelings Celeste, I have felt like this since the moment I landed here at the Academy," he said with a gentle smile as he kissed her lightly.

[Celeste]

He cupped her cheek gently as he told her that he had indeed had feelings for her since the beginning. Though he had never in their lives together ever said anything. But Hadrian tended to be a man that wasn't exactly free with his emotions. But right now he was opening up to her in a way that she had never felt before. She leaned back and moaned louder as she broke the kiss.

She was in pain sure but right now it was pleasure and pain no matter how bruised she was. Was this wrong? Probably but that didn't mean she wasn't going to continue kissing him because damn it felt good.

"Hadrian.. I .. I love you." she whispered as she kissed him gently and passioinatly. Letting her tongue move into her mouth. That was another difference between the two. His moves tended to be more foreceful while hers were delicate and light. But both contained the same feelings in them and that was all that mattered at the moment.
