Early Morning Matters [Calypso/Vanyel]
Tue Mar 30, 2021 6:30 pm
THE AWAKENED VAEL
The sun hadn't even peeked from the horizon when the demon shot upright, a gentle gasp erupting from her throat as she felt her heart leap out of her chest, her gaze rapidly darting around as her eyes adjusted to the darkness, seeing that she was in a room, a bedroom, in a house she knew. Her eyes slowed down gradually as she processed all of this, before lying on the person sleeping next to her - Vanyel.
A sigh of relief left her lips as she rested a hand on her chest, covering her forehead with her knuckles as she lied back quietly, staring at the ceiling. It had been a day since they fully abandoned their previous residence, but even so the primordial cries of her subconscious fears rose during her sleep, a nightmare that felt all too real. One of her family being slaughtered and tortured to punish her, and she herself being taken and locked away, never to see freedom ever again.
It was just a bad dream, there's nothing to worry about. Go back to sleep... The sun isn't even up...
Closing her eyes, she tried to let her focus slip, her mind ease back into slumber, but as soon as she sank towards the veil of unconsciousness, she had several unpleasant flashes of memory before her, causing her eyes to squeeze and open as she rolled onto her side, frustrated.
"Yeah, no. Fuck that noise."
She kept her vulgar comment quiet as she carefully and quietly rose from the sheets, trying not to wake her husband as she crept tendril by tendril to the nearest window, nestling through the closed curtains as she would prop herself up to sit neatly on the windowsill, pulling it open and looking out to the sky. Various insects were still chirping, not even the first sliver of dawn in sight as the stars were starting to fade.
They weren't completely free, not yet. This thought led to the young woman to hug her knees, hunched over as only her sillhouette was visible in the window.

Dawn had hardly even broke by the time that Vanyel was stirred from his light slumber, quiet moaning as he blinked a few times, slowly sitting up and rubbing his eyes. It didn't take him long for them to get used to the darkness, and with a brief activation of Jin Jing Huo Yan, he could see the outline of his lover's essence huddled at the other end of the room.
His expression turned sorrowful as he silently got out of bed, taking his jacket from the bedpost and sliding it over his uncovered body as he walked across the room. Even if it had only been a day since they had made their choice to leave the Demon World, leave the manor that Algos had given then and burn it to the ground, Vanyel still felt an ache in his heart. After Calypso had been in-and-out so many times, with him hardly seeing her, even if she was away from him for moments, he missed every moment that they were together, even if it wasn't long.
And to see her like this, as well, it only brought more ache to him.
So, quietly approaching her from behind, he kissed her cheek, wrapping his arms around her waist and knees, resting his chin and lips on her shoulder, his voice coming as a hushed whisper.
"Are you okay? Did you have a nightmare?"
His arms tightened ever so slightly around her, pressing his cheek against hers as he closed his eyes, holding her close.
"Whatever it was, whatever happened...I'm here. I can't do much, but, I can be here."
