Light It Up

Fire and Blood | Nyx & Alexandria

Alexandria imitated Nyx, and also layed back a bit more. Her gaze fell on the other’s exposed skin and she felt slight attraction, but turned her look at the other side so she wouldn’t cause any discomfort. “Say.. I’ve thought about escaping plenty of times. The doctors seem kind of irresponsible from time to time. I’ve considered jumping down the window, or over the fence but I am not sure. And it also would be unfair if only one of us all got to leave..” She revealed.

Nyx noticed her new friend turn her eyes away and realized that she was showing some skin. She was somewhat surprised that she felt disappointment at the reaction, though she hadn't even meant to show her skin in the first place. She nodded after listening to the girl. "Yeah.. they'd probably put out wanted posters or something. You'd almost definitely end up back in here," she guessed.

"I usually am not like that." Alexandria laughed it off. "You are kinda lucky that I’m not feeling moody today. I don’t tend to support these things. Actually, I kinda don’t support anything or anyone but..don’t we all need some words of encouragement from time to time? Especially in a place like this." She gave her a faint smile. "I wonder if we’ll ever get out.." She sighed.

Nyx nodded. Some people tended to be nicer to her than others. "Yeah, we do need some encouragement. Some, more than others. And I dunno. Maybe we will. It depends really on the doctors here, I suppose." She echoed the girl's sigh, leaning back on the bed more. She felt that her stomach and hipbones were exposed a little, but she didn't care. She was too busy thinking about the chance of getting out. And of course, this beautiful new friend.

A New Home | Nyx & Helena

Helena shook her head at the girl’s comment, finding it almost absurd that the other couldn’t find anything. “Nah, man, I’m sure you’re good at something, you just gotta figure it out. Unless you like being real good at sex, which is fair enough.” She commented, closing her eyes.

Nyx laughed. "Ha, maybe that's all I'm good for, to bloody anyone," she said. What if it was? She'd never really thought about it before, come to think of it. She shrugged, even though the girl's eyes were closed.

Alexandria realized the girl’s situation by the look on her face. Not wanting to trigger her any more,she thought it would be a good idea to change the subject. “Let’s not talk about these things now,alright?” She smiled with encouragement. “I believe you can leave this in the past. I am sure you can.” Alexandria was trying her hardest to be kind,though this was not her true nature. 

Nyx smiled more at her new friend. Her words were kind, kinder than any other words that had been said to her. She liked her even more. "Thank you," she said gratefully. She wondered what she could've possibly done to deserve this type of kindness.

Alexandria’s eyes widened at the sight. She would normally mock something like that,but she felt empathy for the girl. “I see.” She nodded. “But,why? Is there any particular reason or what? You are too lovely to be doing this,it’s unfair.” She gave her a comforting smile,being unusually kind towards her.

Nyx looked away a little when the girl's eyes grew big. Although it almost never happened, there were certain people, generally people she liked, with whom she would get embarrassed around. She felt like a freak.She shrugged. "It's comforting. I like the way the heat stays under my skin." She looked up a little with her big blue eyes to see the girl smiling. She returned it with a small, nervous smile of her own.

Alexandria let out an awkward laugh,surprised from the other’s response. “This might be the first time I am not the one blamed for this!” She exclaimed. “Yes,he should had seen it coming. But either way,it does not matter now.” She added and stared at Nyx,wondering what her story was. “Your turn now.” Alexandria gave her an intense look,as if it was a demand.

Nyx shrugged. People were so stupid, not knowing what they were asking. She turned to the girl and smiled a little. "I'm here because I was burning myself a lot. It was really bad," she explained. She rolled up the sleeves of her jacket, showing the fading burns and the healing scars. She shrugged again. "I like fire too much."

"No, coffee is bad for you." Amber mumbled with a sniff,more to herself, than the other.

"Only if you drink loads of it."
