Something, that will never fade [Liluth and Faolan]

As their cheek touches each other, Liluth squeezed her eyes shut again, trying not to explode into another tear attack. She knew, she was hurting Faolan with such look on her, but Liluth couldn't act strong now, she had no strength for it.



Her hand gripped into his shirt on his chest, and Liluth dig her face into his hair. Staying like this elped her to calm at least that much, to stop tear wave. Still being close to his ear, Liluth mumbled: "You are everything I have left ..."

Hearing that promise, Liluth gently pushed Faolan away to look into his eyes. She just looked at him for second, and then slowly leaned her head lower, until her lips touched his.

After withdrawing from short smooch Liluth just nodded her head as agreement to his promise. But their moment was interupted by very loud growling sound. It was her stomack. Liluth was very hungry actually. Little ashamed elf looked down.

Liluth looked at her open palms now, how they were looking somehow weaker and thinner as usual. "Faolan ... can I use your bath?" Elf asked, squeezing her fists gently close. "I must look awful ..."

True, she looked very awful and out of her usual character - weak, with small herb parts stuck in her open hair, what somehow still holded in sloby braid. Her clothes needed wash too, and by now Faolan could feel strong dirt like smell coming from Liluth. She was used to it already, so she didn't feel how she smells actually.

Liluth observed how Faolan approached the wall and summoned doors from nowhere. She only blinked her eyes from surprise, but didn't say anything. With little effort she managed to stand up, firmly holding on the sofa's edge. When she was sure she would stay still, she let it go. With slow pace Liluth went to Faolan, and with his invite went into them, what surely was a bathroom.

The dark elf tried not to look too much on other elf, because she didn't want to see that pity look he gave to her. Seeing that in his eyes made her feel more awful.

Liluth then approached bath, and carefully unpinned her dirty cloak and furr piece, letting it fell next to her feet. She was standing facing back to Faolan, and as cloak was off, he would now see that her long jacket piece had ripped open stripes on her back, five in total. But, her back was oky, no wounds or anything ... because Liluth had healed those whip marks already ...

When Liluth heard Faolan talking so suddenly and whit such tone, she even glumped a little. She forgot about ripped clothes, and regretted that he saw it right away. She just stood there, staring at ground really not knowing what to do. But, he was expecting answers, so not to anger him more, Liluth told him quietly, slowly trying to undo her belts with trembling hands, what made all little bit harder to do.

"While I was in Valsk ..." she paused to take a breath, otherwise her language would start to tremble as well, "I was captured by small Valsk soldier group ... they wanted information, but I did not have any to give." Liluth squeezed her eyes closed and hands to her chest, trying to calm her trembling hands.

Liluth gently squeezed other elf hands with her's. "I know you will ..." she gently whispered. After mere second, she gently freed herself from him, and as her hands stopped trembled a bit, she finally undo her belts, and took her jacket piece off. "Faolan ... sorry to burther you more, but would you ... help me do this ... I feel that I might fail doing this on my own right now."

After her request followed pretty akward expirience for both of them, but he did a good job, and atleats now Liluth was clean, dry, and smelled as her usual self - as berries.

Being all clean now felt really great, in truth, she had not been so clean in days.

While her clothes were still dirty, Liluth was given bath robe, what works just fine. And, again as Faolan surprised her with another door appearing in the wall, she only widened her eyes for a moment.

But, as Liluth saw all that food her eyes widened again, and second lasting smile appeared on her face. Excorted by Faolan, she sat down, and they had breakfast. But, unfortunately, Liluth was quiet during it, still feeling little off herself.

As she was done, Liluth looked at Faolan and forces small smile out. "Thank you for the meal." Was all she said before the dark elf pointed eyes down, on hands in her lap, what gripped in robe fabric.

"Faolan ..." she started almoust whispering, "forgive me that I pull you inside my problems, just ..." another pause, "I had no other to go to ... you were first in my mind."
