Closed I see the loneliness in those beautiful eyes[Erosynie]

[Assilsa Curare]

Her hand… Assilsa felt the strength and softness all in one hand, she was amazed and comforted by such a simple notion. As they began to walk Assilsa caught herself beaming in delight, even in the empty hall Assilsa felt as though she had all the company in the world.

As the stood in front of the door Assilsa could tell that Save was nervous, Assilsa could understand afterall she was sure Save’s room was much nicer then hers. After all Assilsa’s room was filled with rocks, leaves and anything she found in her travels. The door seemed to open too slowly, why was she is such a rush?

Half of her wanted to get to know Save as fast as possible and the other half wanted this moment to never end, there was a war in her mind between wanting it fast and wanting it slow. Save’s room was fairly empty compared to Assilsa’s, however one thing caught her attention the most. A steel fan… she had never seen one before, widening her eyes Assilsa looked back at her companion.

“Your Fan….”

Her voice trailed off as she continued to scan the room, there wasn’t much else of importance however Assilsa still preferred this compared to her room. Was it because Save was in here?

[Erosynielissave]

"Your fan..."Having a weapon out in the open was kinda hard to miss. Save picked up her fan as she sat down on her bed. She opened it slowly and demonstrated a few simple defensive techniques.

"It's a gift from my father. He believed that even though the men were the ones who serve the women, a woman should know how to handle a weapon. This fan is mainly for defense and disarming. But..." Save gestured to the sharp points at the end of each fan blade, "it can also be used for attacking. I haven't practiced using it as much as I should have lately" Save suddenly felt uncomfortable, almost like she was too hot, which was ridiculous because she almost was as cold as ice.

I miss my father.... Sitting awkwardly, she didn't know how to continue the conversation, or how to start another one. "Come in. Sit down. I don't bite unless I am asked." She was turning a deep red. Did she really just say that? For the love of Caiyha, she was pathetic.

"So....Assilsa....where are you from?"

[Assilsa Curare]

Assilsa knew that tone of voice all too well, Save was missing her father. That fan was truly amazing; she had honestly never seen anything like it before, it was almost as odd to see as her whip. Assilsa would have shown her Lash, however it was hidden away in her room.

Taking the offered sit beside Save Assilsa laughed at the biting joke. Assilsa had never been so comfortable about talking about fangs and biting and even home. Resting her hands in her lap and allowing for her hair to fall around her face Assilsa began to whisper softly.

“I come from Kalinor…. Home to the Widows…”

A small sigh escaped her lips as she began to think of home, however yet she would no return home. Deciding to think on something more positive Assilsa looked up to look as Save’s face, which had turned a bright pink.

Without even realising what she was doing Assilsa reached up and rested her palm on Save’s blushing cheeks. Her face was perfection, the shape, the colour of her eyes. All of it just made the most beautiful combination at Assilsa had seen in a long time.

“And in my travels I have never seen such beautiful view then the one I am seeing now”

[Erosynielissave]

Save was again speechless. Her face hot with the blood that rushed to her cheeks. She had been called many things, both good and bad, but Assilsa's words seemed to shatter and melt the ice that she shielded her heart in. It pounded harder when Assilsa gently caressed her face.

[i]She's from Kalinor....so she's...[/i] "A symenestra?" Save had only heard stories about the symenestra. Such a unique and powerful race. She almost envied them. She wanted to know all about Assilsa all the more. But the tone in her voice spoke worlds of sadness and Save decided against pushing the subject.

"I'm from Ahnatep. The Viper Nest" Pride for her heritage filled her as she revealed where she was from. Although she did not miss her home in the least. She was against torturing humans even though it was plenty fun. She refused to admit it to anyone. She felt like a disgrace to Siku and Caiyha.

Save reached up and placed her hand over Assilsa's. "I've just met you, and yet you are the kindest, most elegantly gorgeous creature I have ever seen. I want to know all about you."

If only this moment could last forever… Their hands together, and a compliment in the room. Assilsa was stunned, she had never been called gentle before. Such compliments caused Assilsa to blush and giggle like an excitable child.

It was only moments before the world seemed to close around the beautiful woman in front of her, almost seeming as if she was her world that this point. Such compliments had turned Assilsa’s heart into a humming bird. It was beating so fast Assilsa couldn’t form a reply. She just sat there gapping as she went to say how she felt; only nothing came out.

“Save….”

The one word that had manage to find its way out of her maze like mind was her name, the shocking thing was that Assilsa could understand it as common , had she actually managed the word in common?

[Erosynielissave]

"Save..." Save was confused on why she was saying that word, but she immediately realized, she was trying to say her name. Assilsa had been trying so hard, that Save refused to correct her. It was simply adorable. Save leaned in close and kissed her cheek. They hardly spoke at all tonight, yet they seemed to have so much in common.

"Assilsa, I know we have just met, and this may be a bit fast, but would you consider staying with me tonight. We can spend the whole night talking or..." Save couldn't finish. She was simply too flustered.

[Assilsa Curare]

Her lips were so soft; Assilsa’s heart skipped a beat as she felt Saves breath against her cheek. Her pale lips parted in a content sigh, how this felt right, to be sitting her this close to her. A sudden thought smashed all the nice thoughts in her mine… Assilsa would never be able to kiss Save… right on the lips, not without the large chance of killing her.

Save’s invitation was so tempting to waste away the night talking, learning every last detail, however Assilsa was so nervous she felt as she would shake out of her skin, just leaving a pile of skin and her floating bones in her place.

Assilsa knew that she would accept, there was no doubt about it, however it couldn’t stop Assilsa doubting her own control of her emotions. They were spinning like a whirl pool, usually they sat still like a well behaved ocean, now she was sitting her struggling with words. What would she say? The truth?
What was the truth? Assilsa began to think on it. The truth was she was fascinated by this woman, astonished, amazed… Assilsa began to think that at this point in time the pair reminded her of how her parents acted when they thought they were alone. Was this what this was?

“Or?....”

[Erosynielissave]

"Or...we could just cuddle. I enjoy the warmth that you radiate when you wrap your arms around me. I wouldn't have to worry about not waking up in the morning. If I fell asleep, I would have the perfect reason to wake up in the morning." the almost poetic words flowed so easily from her lips. Yet she could not find the words for the way she already felt about Assilsa. What would see say? Would she have the courage to say it?

As she looked deep into Assilsa's eyes, she saw a heart shattering pain reflecting brightly. It almost made her choke up.What would have such a beautiful creature such as her, on the verge of ultimate despair? Save couldn't fathom the suffering and loneliness. She would do whatever it takes to make Assilsa smile, to make her happy. She would kill for her safety and die if she were asked. She would wipe away tears and punch the person's teeth in that had made her upset. Seeing the pain in Assilsa's eyes, Save dedicated her long life to Assilsa.

I hardly know her....yet I am already more than willing to put my own safety and risk my life to keeping her safe and happy. Why? Why is my heart beating so fast that I'm almost heating myself up? Her stomach had butterflies and the world seemed to fade away. It was just Save and Assilsa. Nothing else in the world mattered. Just the two of them, sharing an almost perfect moment.

[Assilsa Curare]

Save felt comfort with her? Assilsa was overjoyed; since the moment Assilsa had laid eyes on Save. She didn’t understand how she felt but Assilsa knew it was a good thing. She saw herself caring for this woman through thick and thin.

Assilsa rarely dedicated herself to someone she had just met, yet here she was on that persons bed considering it. Save seemed to pull the strings of her heart. Even her touch seemed to send shivers down Assilsa’s spine.

With one last look into Save’s eyes Assilsa, in one swift moment, wrapped her pale arms around Save’s beautiful figure. Burying her face in neck Assilsa was overwhelmed by emotions and senses. In all her life Assilsa had never had so emotions spinning around in her head, never had something felt so softly, never had a smell smelled so sweetly.

Clinging tightly to her companion Assilsa began to consider the options, she had never heard of such a thing as a Dhani Symenestra companionship. Yet Assilsa didn’t care, even if it was impossible Assilsa would stay with Save until she was dismissed from her side, and even then Assilsa might not want to leave.

“I would travel anywhere with you even if the city would not take my kind.”

[Erosynielissave]

Save was initially taken by surprise from the intense embrace, but quickly returned the embrace with as much passion as she could manage.

"As will I Assilsa. I will travel the world over just be be with you." Save had never considered a relationship like this. She had never considered a relationship period, but in the arms of Assilsa, she easily could picture herself spending the rest of their lives together.

Closing her eyes, savoring the moment, Save pictured her father and the way he looked at her mother. The way her mother returned his gaze. It was so full of passion, warmth and so many more things that Save didn't know how to describe or fully understand. Yet she had felt these exact things towards Assilsa. What was this feeling? Should she be scared? Hundreds of questions burned in her mind as she held on tightly to Assilsa.

"I will never let go..." Never....not unless you tell me to leave.
