➳ bulletproof & nothing to lose.

          had it been any other day, Luke would have               continued to harmlessly taunt her. But one look              and he knew he already did too much damage.               It was his own fault, he really didn’t tell anyone               but Charlie about where he was going and even              then he left little knowledge with the theif. An               apologetic smile softened his grin and he gently              tousled at blonde tufts of the knight’s hair. “As              you wish, Vi. —Should I come by later with some              proper apology gifts?” 

           ".. What kind of gifts did you have in mind?"

             Ϟ | Being left alone was what he was accustomed              to, but maybe having Violet there with him wasn’t so              bad. She was one of the few people in his life that              were patient with him on all terms, and that he was              thankful for. Though, right now, it was best to act              strong for her. ‘It’s okay. Don’t worry about me,’              He types with one hand, flashing a forced smile              down at her. ‘Stay long as you need.’

           "No, no. This is stupid. I don't wanna sit            here and sulk about things. And I'm not            letting you do that either."

   ”..’Here’ is Japan! Tokyo, actually.” he said, rocking back and forth on his heels. “How did you get here, if you weren’t sure where it was in the beginning?” he asked curiously. “Did you come by yourself..?” he asked. 

           "..Tokyo.. Japan? Ahaha.. that can't be            right.. did I.." She knew she had slept for            quite a while during the flight, but to think             she had actually managed to get on the             wrong one and not realize it was almost            so ridiculous, if it been anyone else but            her, she would find it funny. "I got.. on            the wrong plane..."

         ”Come on, Vi. You know how I am, you saved me after all.” Laughing softly he moved a hand to mess with his hair softly. Even after her yelling he was amused at her responses but still he knew to tone down the jokes now. “How have you been, blondie?”

   "I shouldn't have. I should have            let them beat you into the ground and even             help them do it." Though her words were             empty and held no real truth to them, the            teen was genuinely furious, the pat to her            head doing nothing to alleviate her anger.            "I was fine up until a moment ago. Why            are you here?"

    █ ▌║ ✂ ——   “Hm…" A pensive silence fell between them as Ki glanced briefly at his surroundings, casting his gaze left, right, up and down before turning back to meet the stranger’s eyes. "I’m lost too. Probably." He’d been wondering about for a while now, and though losing his way hadn’t the boy’s primary concern, there was no doubt that he’d ended up in an unfamiliar area.

   ”R-Really?” Her expression            falls, palms raising to muss up her            hair in obvious distress. If he really            was lost, he was almost eerily calm             about it in her opinion, or maybe he            had been here for a while and accepted            his situation long before her arrival.            "..Do.. do you think we should try to            figure out where we are?"

   He jumped kind of, and stood back. He looked around and rubbed his arm, “Yes, Pax.. It’s nice to meet you Violet. Pax is sorry he scared you…he didn’t mean to, honest. You just looked lost, so…Pax just wanted to help. You aren’t from here, are you?”

           "Ah, no, don't apologize, I was just.. a little startled.            It's nice to meet you too--and no, I don't know where            'here' is.. as per usual." A sigh parts from her lips as            she rubs the bridge of her nose, willing the oncoming            throb of a headache to disappear. "Sorry, sorry--it's been            a long day."

     Looking over, Pax saw someone unfamiliar to him. He’d been around here awhile, so seeing someone he didn’t know was always fun. Pax walked up to the girl, tapping her shoulder lightly. “Excuse me miss, are you lost? Pax can help..” 

           The knight jumps forward, startled by the             touch before whirling around on her heel            with wide eyes. "I--no, I'm fine, thank you--..."            Blinking repeatedly, the teen allows her gaze            to travel from his feet to the top of his head,            amazed by the sheer fact that they appeared            to be close to the same height. "Ah--um, excuse            me. Pax, was it? I'm Violet."

              Ϟ | It was sad for him to see her like this, surely a mix              of emotions after the return of their friends. He had              already convinced himself months in advance that they              didn’t need people like that. But here they were yet again,              his stomach churning at the mere thought of them.              Frowning, and his heart thumping dangerously against              his rib cage, he decides to take a risk and slides his arm              around her shoulders.

   Immediately scoots closer            to his side as an arm drapes around her,            an exasperated sigh slipping past her lips.            Drops her head against his frame and            peers up at him with a frown, brows furrowed.            in concern. It was selfish for her to seek comfort            from him when he was obviously in distress over            the situation at hand as well. He had made it             perfectly clear that he wanted to be left alone to            his thoughts, but she had no one else to turn to.            "..Sorry, Lyle. Really sorry. You don't have to--I'm            okay, but--are you?"

             Ϟ | Clenches his teeth as she sits down, retrieving his              phone from his pocket and typing out a quick, blunt              message. ‘Would you be mad if I punched them both in              the nose?' He scoots a bit closer to her frame, leaning              his forearm on her shoulder as he holds out the phone              for her to read.

   Remains silent as orbs quickly            scan the message, a sudden pang in her            chest forcing her to turn away from his phone            fists clenched in her lap as she leans her head            on his arm. She shakes her head, energy drained            to the point of being unable to verbally reply.

             Ϟ | Bites the inside of his cheek as the pebble skids              across the ground in front of him, briefly lifting his              head to glance just past her figure before a deep sigh              is drawn from his lips. A defeated nod is given, motioning              for her to sit next to him.

   Resists the urge to bounce on            her heels, opting to release a relieved exhale            instead as she scurries to take a seat beside            him. Kicks her legs slightly, peeking out of the            corner of her eye then glancing down to her lap.

             Ϟ | Squints at the ground in a refusal to make eye contact             with the blonde, hoping she would leave him to fume in bitter             silence for a while. 

   Holds her hands behind her            back, kicking a stray pebble past his            field of vision before clearing her throat.            "..I'll be quiet if you let me stay here for a            while, okay?"

               Smirking to himself he continued to play his game. Looking down at her little stomping he let out a fake gasp. “Oh! You really are here. I really didn’t notice you.” With her response he actually almost felt bad about his joke. Her reaction was far too great to pass up though. 

   "You're the worst! Even after            all this time, you still have the audacity             to treat everything like it's a joke! Go back            where you came from!" She fumes,            biting the inside of her cheek to stop            from saying more before she truly             regretted it, not used to speaking in such            a rude manner. 

        ah, but this was Luke she was dealing with.            He lived to pester the petite blonde, even if           it annoyed every last nerve of her being; her           irritation was just the icing of the cake.            “Aww, did someone get shy over the months            of my absence?”

   ”Someone was worried sick            and really doesn't want to look at,            nor speak with you. Please leave."            She speaks in a rush quick enough            to leave her momentarily out of breath,            having to inhale sharply as soon as            she's finished. Typical was it was for            him to poke fun at her, now was not            the time to test her patience, though            she doubted that would stop him. It            never had before.

              “I thought Vi was here— I don’t see anyone.”

   Ignore him. Ignore him. Ignore--            "You aren't funny! I'm right here and you            know it full well!" The teen stomps her feet,            fists clenched as she tries to regulate her            breathing, offense taken towards what she            could only assume was a short joke.

          “Well, if it isn’t our cute little knight.”

   ”..." The knight casts her             gaze astray, arms ridged by her sides.            Maybe if she ignored him long enough,            he would grow bored and move along.
