[Roleplay] The Rebuilding - Continuation of The Aftermath

[Naiad]

I curl into a ball on the couch after Blaze rushes out. Tears trickle down my face.

"I'm stupid. So very stupid...." I begin sobbing.

Sai.... go after him. Now.

I sniffle. "Why?"

.... Just go.

(( fun fact: this is the first time Sai's talked to Lia using dialogue rather than thoughts ;D))

 

[Myst]

A cab finally pulls up. I tell the driver my address, sit in the car, and go home. I need to do my ****ing job... Not make friends... But I quit my job... Then what do I do now? Why am I finding myself caring more and more about the broken healer girl? Ever since her little outburst, all I've wanted to do is comfort her... Damnit Blaze... Get yourself together... You can't care for anyone... She was the enemy... Her friends still distrust you... But... Why her?

(Oooh. Nice.)

 

[Naiad]

I walk outside and notice Blaze get into a cab.

 

[Myst]

(Uh... He's in the cab already. )

 

[Naiad]

... And that's how it ends. That's how it ALWAYS ends. He walks away while you cry. He leaves when you're at your weakest.

"I know, Lia. I know." I begin to sob once again.

 

[Myst]

By the time I get home, I'm frustrated enough that I'm almost pulling my hair. I pay the driver and step out. I watch the taxi leave before walking up the few steps to my apartment.

 

[Naiad]

Go to sleep, Sai. You'll need it.

I smile sadly. "Just like old times, huh? Crying myself to sleep while you comfort me seems like a common occurrence now." My voice shakes.

.... You'll be better in the morning. Forget about him.

 

[Myst]

(Blaze left his booze btw. Oh, and he has no phone now. XD )

 

[Naiad]

I lock the door behind me. "I— I need to clean up everything...."

In the morning. Sleep now.

 

[Myst]

I sit inside my apartment. It's still quiet. I sigh. I go into my kitchen, and grab a knife. I sit on the ground. Pulling my shirt off, I start to cut myself. Feeling the pain centers me... Helps me focus... I need to stop seeing Sai. I'm growing attached to her presence... Next thing, I know I'll be falling in love with her...

(Sai needs to run to his apt... But oh, well...)

 

[Naiad]

(( WHOA

WOW))

(( SAI NEEDS TO GET IN THERE OMFG ))

 

[Myst]

(Yup. XD )

 

[Naiad]

"No. Lia. I— I need to go see him." I rush to my car.

Sai.

 

[Myst]

Seeing all this blood is starting to hurt. My vision wavers. Next thing I know, I'm passing out, knife still in my hand, as I fall back onto the kitchen floor...

(Front door is unlocked.)

 

[Naiad]

"Lia, I'm not letting him go."

I start the car and drive to Blaze's apartment complex.

 

[Myst]

(He's shirtless, cuts/blood on his chest, and passed out on kitchen floor.)

 

[Naiad]

I park and run up the stairs.

I knock on Blaze's door. No reply.

Try the knob. He may've left the door unlocked.

My eyes widen as I twist the knob. "Open." I push the door open slowly. "Blaze?"

 

[Myst]

No reply.

 

[Naiad]

Sai. There's blood in the kitchen. Lots of it.

What?

Peripheral Vision.

I cautiously make my way to the kitchen. "Oh god..." I rush over to Blaze and begin healing him. "You better not be dead, you stupid idiot...."

 

[Myst]

Still no reply.
