The Faerie Court

Lilith~

"No!" She screamed back in reply. "You were all over the Queen like white on bread!" She threw a pillow at the UNLOCKED door.

*Sorry had to point that out...i gotta go 2 bed,**

**He was trying to be nice**

Tristan:

I sighed and pushed the door open. "Lilith, she was going to kill us. ALL of us. You, me,...and Grace. How could I sit there and still defy her when all I had to do was give in and save you? I love you! I never loved her. But I didn't know how to stop her. so...I did what I thought MIGHT stop her. But she then just wanted more of me. as long as I was with her, I had to pretend like I was hers, or risk the chance she might get angry and kill you. I can't live without you." I sighed and pulled her to me. "You must believe me!"

Lilith~

Lilith absorbed all his words like a sponge. She realized just how stupid she was being. "I believe you," she whispered, hugging him tightly.

Tristan:

I kissed her passionately. "I thought about you the entire time. I was going crazy inside. It was pure torture not to be with you." I sighed. "I'm sorry. I just...wanted to help."

~~Lilith~~

Lilith kissed him back, smiling lightly. "I love you so much," she whispered to him, kissing his neck lightly.

Tristan:

I smiled. "I love you too. I should let you get some sleep though." I sighed. "I don't know what the queen will make me do tomorrow, but I promise you, no matter what I have to do, I love YOU, and no one else. Okay?"

Faede-

"Get out!" I screamed at Aurora. "Leave me!"

"Your highness,"

I sat up. "Don't you get it? I don't want to talk to you. I don't want to see your face. Or yours Owen. Get out! All of you!"

Owen-

She sat in the middle of the ballroom, tearing at her hair. Her tears had stained the floor around her. Her dress was ripped and her fingernails were covered in her own blood that she had drawn from her face.

Our queen, our ruler, was a mess.

"Come on," I muttered to Aurora. "We should go."

Aurora:

I nodded mutely. I didn't know what to do. I clutched at Owen tighter, trying to peal myself away from the queen's wrath. I sighed.

Lilith~

Lilith nodded and helped him to his feet, kissing him again. "I know," she whispered, tiredly walking towards her bed.

Tristan:

I smiled. "Goodnight, my love. I will see you in the morning." I kissed her and left, "Tell Grace I'm sorry for being a jerk earlier." I left.

Owen-

I kissed Aurora gently. "I love you," I said.

She kissed me back. "Aren't you coming?"

"I need rest! I got shot today!"

"You're still angry?"

"No, of course not, but I need to recover. My magic isn't that fast, okay? I'll talk to you tomorrow."

I kissed her again, and went to my own room.

Faede-

I sat in the middle of the floor. I had torn my skirt to shreds at the bottom. My hair was dishevelled, the new braids had been ripped out. I screamed again.

But no one was there to hear me.

Aurora:

I sighed and watched him walk away from me. I went to my rooms and fell asleep, exhausted. I didn't know what to make of everything, but at the moment, I didn't care. I dreamed of Owen...and us, and hoped that dreams came true.

*Okay, let's just take a minute to regroup: it's morning. Everybody is in bed, except for the Queen who's a nervous wreck in the middle of the ballroom. Tristan knows her name, him and Lilith are slightly precarious, but not nearly as precarious as Owen and Aurora. I think all the humans have eaten, yes? And that random Asteria is not giving up easily on Owen, the Queen is very angry with Tristan, Tristan's ready to go to any means to keep Lilith and Grace safe... So what happens now?

Somebody can post for the morning... let's move onto Stage Two, whatever that is.*

Aurora:

I yawned and jumped out of bed. I was thrilled. Owen loved me. It was a new day, and I could spend any way I so chose. I dressed quickly in black pants and a tank. I rushed to Owen's room to check on him. "Owen?" I asked, knocking, hoping he would answer.

Owen-

Somebody called my name. "C'min," I mumbled sleepily, sitting up and rubbing my eyes. Light broke through my window.
