[Roleplay] The Aftermath 2.5 - A Cushion For Our Hearts

[Naiad]

"They're not that bad," I say softly. "Just a bit.. interesting, that's all."

Oh goddamn this is cold.

 

[Myst]

"They should all die and you know it... especially the girl, her brother, and her boyfriend." I sigh growing frustrated with this conversation.

I notice her shivering and I begin to smirk. "Feeling cold?"

 

[Naiad]

"Yes, yes I am." I glance at him. "... I honestly have no idea how you handle this."

 

[toxapex]

"Uh-huh." I smile at her and put my arm around her. "So... Uh, wanna watch anything?" I pick up the remote and glance at her inquisitively.

 

[Myst]

I shrug. "You get used to it after a while..."

I bite my lip. "Hm... why don't you pick tonight? Nothing too gory, okay?"

 

[Naiad]

I reach up and adjust the temperature. "Like I always say, warm showers are nicer."

 

[Myst]

I move out of the direction of the water. "Hey! No fair. I was here first."

 

[Naiad]

I stifle my laughter. "What's the matter? Scared of a little warm water?"

 

[Myst]

"Not scared... it's too..." I bite my lip. "...hot."

I reach for the dial and turn it back to ice cold.

 

[toxapex]

"Alright." I flip through the channels and stop when I see an episode of Doctor Who starting.

Hm... I wonder if she'll forget about the memorial tomorrow...

 

[Myst]

I glance at him curiously. "Do you have something against the memorial? My only reason for wanting to go is... Dusk... you know that right?"

 

[toxapex]

Dang, I forgot you could read minds...

"I... nothing against the memorial, really... I'm just not sure if it's safe, because of... Blaze..."

 

[Myst]

"Wait... is he going to be there?" I tense up.

 

[Naiad]

I raise an eyebrow. "It was barely warm." I grab his hand. "Look. Your hand is basically an ice block right now."

 

[Myst]

"No, it's not." I breathe slowly to calm myself down.

... I really hope she doesn't notice... oh, god... why did she have to come in here...?

 

[toxapex]

"Yeah, I think Sai mentioned him. She said he's 'changed', but... Yeah..."

 

[Naiad]

I sigh and glance down.

"...."

Is that why he came in here?

"Blaze?"

 

[Myst]

I sigh. "Oh... b-but... Dusk..." I cover my face with my hands.

I glance over at her. "...yeah?"

 

[Naiad]

"Is that why you're taking an ice-cold shower at 11 PM?"

 

[Myst]

I avert my eyes and blush ever so slightly. "Mayyybe."
