Map of the Problematique [private]

[Asphyxia]

[and here we... go!]

"It won't hurt one bit, I promise."
With a light rattle of a plastic make up bag and a sharp clang were the only offering tunes at the moment for what was upcoming. A slender, porcelain hand unzipped the plastic bag, the paraphernalia inside stirring with crystal clanking noises and sharp metal bangs before the zip rippled once again through the air. The excitement had lighted the air, the exasperated look of the mirroring woman on the reflection glass naturally stunning and beautifully ecstatic. The hour glass form of a woman whispered through the bathroom door, breezing through the halls and finally shadowing through the living room of upstairs where she would find the source of her excitement and the primary delight and sparkle of her eyes; her porcelain skin--when passing through--a powdery white from the intruding rays of sun beam through the lines of the shuffling curtains, making it seem as a ghost had entered the room instead of the slender, curvaceous contours of a woman with glittering, lush of crimson hair trailing behind her lithe form. One hand clutched mindlessly to a slender piece of metal while the other made sure to cover down the exposed, pale inch her stomach provided by polyester white that hugged the shapely form in a nicely fitting way, not leaving much to the imagination. The pallid digits moved promptly along the black shorts that clung to her hips and thighs for dear life as her feathery movements allowed the fabric to slide up not by much, but a nice little centimeter each time a pause was made to settle down some hair products, something that would be checked next in the list after the grooming of eyebrows prepared for her delight angel. It would be part of her beautifying ritual as she knew that the tall frame of her beloved enjoyed the different tones of color his hair could intake for different occasions. Lilly had managed to convince Caleb to let her do some natural beautifying just so he'd look presentable for his concerts and or formal go outs with her. He had also agreed to spend a couple of nights with her in her mansion, leaving not much to do, a product out of boredom and routine was sprung from the red head's little brain. The long-lasting lovebirds had an attraction for each other in a carnal way, but never paid enough attention to make some heated, passionate moments a priority or a real need in their relationship. Everything had been fine the way it fluctuated throughout their years together, the only need being for each other and a tangent that didn't involve sexual desires. Their mentality and still ongoing honeymoon phase were enough to hinder both and turn to their more cute momentum they so romantically shared and cherished. So with a few more agile glides, the red haired beauty made her stunning appearance in front of her beloved saint, the tweezers in her hands still hidden from his view. "You promised." Her lullaby tone sung from her lips, as if she had been reminding someone a bargain, before she managed to pin him down with her form, both legs cradling his hips with her feathery weight, straddling his lap to have a more firm grip of what she was about to do and so it wouldn't be so easy for him to squirm away, paying no attention at her how white tank top creased and puckered into her chest, exposing the pale inch she was so trying to hide in the first place or the already too exposing shirts that slid up her shapely behind at her light cradle against her saint. Lilly had been used to skimpy attires like these in front of her saint, she was comfortable enough to know and let him know that she trusted him, that nothing would really happen. The porcelain hand outstretched to touch the rock star's shoulder, gliding down his skin with a light tickling sensation before she overpowered his hand, stretched it to her side and pinned it down, making it seem as if she were aiming for a kiss with her lean down, the little silver necklace hanging around her neck making jingling noises from the silver rings at the end of them, swerving her destination to lightly press her soft, smooth ivory lips against his forehead. "Thank you." She spoke lightly, a silent gratefulness for letting her do this in the first place. The other hand containing her metal tweezers flew to his eyebrows in the blink of an eye, the other hand stroking along the tall boy's jawline to make the first embrace the first impact, grabbing the piece of hair out of place and giving it a light but quick pluck.

Caleb let out a sigh as the slender form of his girlfriend skipped out of the room. He'd been coerced by the sweet eyes and tender voice turning out honey coated phrases and suggestions he would have been cruel to downright refuse. He bent under Lilly's will more often then most men would give into a woman's will. He had limits but he was less set on male imagery and could be slightly feminist. The suggestion this time left a strange heaviness settling on his stomach and dispersing through him in electrifying anticipation. What had he signed himself up for, again? His eyes skimmed the room but were unobservant. He settled back into the corner of the couch to give himself enough room to at least get his feet up onto the far arm rest of the couch. His long form was a bit over whelming for the love seat. If he sat upright, his legs stuck awkwardly into space so instead he spread out however he could to look less lanky. He propped his elbow on the back of the couch and let his head fall into his hand. The occasional sound drifted to him enhancing his fearful anticipation of being her beauty project. His eyes shut, locking away the pupil's from having to face whatever terrible machinery his angel returned with. "You promised. His head snapped up, eyes wide open and straining to focus on the angel, but she was on top of him, straddling him, restraining him. Caleb's eyes couldn't grow wider, only sink under the frown of his eyebrows. You promised - poision. He didn't know how, but the angel could speak death to him in just two words. "Lillyyy...." A protest was about to begin but mentally, he was hindered by her precious mannerisms but more so by the physical view now invading his space. The gentle touch was distracting but his eyes were drawn to the dangling necklaces, jingling as though calling his name to look. His view, unfocused went beyond at her chest. With out a doubt, Lilly was the most "motivating" woman he had ever laid eyes on. The beautiful couple seemed to marvel in their perfection alone but Caleb was young, and the young had and enjoyed their views rather discreetly. Thus, captivated by the hovering female figure, his recovery proved to slow. Lilly had taken away his advantage by removing his arm from the top of the couch and pinning him completely. "Thank you." His eyes were brought up to her, bright blue pools of pathetic begging. Futile. A light color hindered his sight, her hand moved to his face and then the pull followed by an intolerable sting. "Ow." Caleb whined and his right eye watered and squinted shut. "Ow, devil woman! That hurts." Caleb fell into the notorious group of men who were terribly wimpy when it came to spa like treatment. They could take a punch, go ahead but massages, facials, waxing and plucking were things of a new pain level and were humiliating. "Lilly," He could tell a second impact was coming, her hand was to close. "Nooo..." His hands clasped her bare outer thighs. "Get off me, woman." The words were conducted in such a way that it took off every serious edge of his tone, especially when he tacked on woman at the end. He could never offend his angel of a matter like this. Regardless, he had to try at least one opposition. He pushed his hands on her thighs backwards and sideways but she was braced well on his body. He did however, manage to squirm lower but was stuck at the ribs so he reversed his squirm and got back to the hips, again she had him. With a heavy sigh, he gave up and glanced up at her to find out what his fate would be and how she was going to deal with his bad "cat being bathed" behavior - he had difficulty with baths too and took those only when necessary, or every third day.

Neo had perfected almost everything for the delivery of his gift.
The Blue crisp uniform fitted him nicely along with its cap.the cap made him look silly in his opnion
ut if it would help to disguise his apperance.He didnt want to be recognised during the delivery of his perfect gift.
He had planned it down to the last detail.
He had told the shopkeeper he worked for Delta so his name wouldnt appear on the slip should the
urious boyfriend choose to investgate. The uniform and fake ids was 'borrowed' from the store.
It was a little over the top maybe but still he wanted nothing to go wrong.nothing was allowed to go wrong.

The gift considered of one diamond necklace, two earrings and a ring.
The Quality of the set was the top of the range and had cost Neo a fortune.
But every penny was worth it. He still felt bad for hitting her at the gig
.And would for that matter for a long time there after
It was in a silver case cushioned on red velvet. A small card
accompanied it but all it had apon it was a love heart to symbolise the gift was a lover's gift
Neo just hope he chose well.He had never brought the like before or probably would again.

Twice he'd almost walked away. It would be so easy to leave it with her butler but Neo was
never a Coward. It was the one thing he was glad z had taught him. That and the power of a
good hit. Combined with the fact he'd learnt from the Butler Lilly was with Caleb it took all
his willpower to stay there. Although there would be the pleasure of seeing Lilly open his gift,
Caleb was a big deterrant.In more ways than one and none hed care to think about.
The silly cap actually had a purpose, it was stopping him from running his fingers through his
recently dyed hair. it was only one of those wash in wash outs deals at least Neo hoped so.he wanted
his black hair back at the end of this, but for now his dark locks were the colour of sun yellow,

How long did it take for the butler to go and seek out her anyway. Hed been gone at least ten minutes
by Neo's count, even though it was closer to five. neo didnt understand why he had to wait for Lilly's permission
before he could be seen. if it hadnt been for the butler getting in his way this would
have been over and done with it. But this was Lillys house Lillys way of doing things
and hed do it her way.Even if it meant waiting for the butler to return.


(Will let you work the butler Lilly as I have no idea where to go from here)

[Asphyxia]

[thanks for controlling my Butler for me? xD Lukas is his name if you decide to keep controlling him in a future.]

Lillyyy... Although the way her adoration dragged her name in such a whining way that Lilly melted immediately into his adorable protesting mocks, like she had told him before, he had promised to her that he'd be a good boy and let her do her grooming with the hopes of leaving him so beautified, no woman could resist. In her sentence, Lilly had tagged alone something about herself and not being able to resist him when she was done with sugar coated flirtatious movements to further push him into the convincing line of letting her do whatever was that she wanted to work with on him. Icy blues peered from thick black lashes to watch Caleb's first reaction to the small pluck she had already inflicted, her chiming, silver bells giggle ringing brightly in contrasting, lullaby tunes as he protested further noting how it hurt. Obviously, it had been the saint's first time and probably last if Lilly didn't coax him into forgetting the numbing pain that were to intrude after a couple of more plucks and the stinging after she swabbed a small cotton ball over his eyebrow, collecting the already taken out hair brow. Lilly. This time, his voice sounded a little firm, his pleasing warmth invading her hips as he tried to remove her from his lap. Before Lilly could successfully pluck another hair from the places they shouldn't quite be, her eyes dragged about at his attempts of sliding from underneath her or even trying to remove her but his attempts had gone futile, just as she had brilliantly plan. "Caleb." A porcelain, slender hand quickly fluttered through the air and fell over her forehead before the digits slid down to her own eyebrows, her index and middle finger gliding in different directions to pinch the bridge of her nose. Proven that there was no escape, the lithe beauty pressed herself closer to her tall, blond saint, her feet clutching further into his own hips, her stomach taking a comfortable perch over his own, pinning him down differently and with slightly more pressure. "I promise it'll be fast and you won't feel a thing when I'm done." Her voice had gotten a few notches down from her usual chorus of angels high soprano voice, sounding a little more softer with a little more coaxing than before as her hand ran back up his face, the other stroking his jawline once again before she plucked with her vampiric speed several of hairs, swabbing quickly with the cotton to soothe the pain she knew she had been causing him. The feathery touch running down his jawline and furthering up into his cheekbones caught the jingling noise dangling from her neck to her low cut shirt, releasing it as if to stop the movement, but as other things, it had proven futile as well. "After this, I'll dye your hair and do whatever you want from meeeeuh... as long as it's nothing too bad." Her tone had risen from low and soft to silvery and with an air of joke in it to cheer up her beloved sweetheart; she had caught herself in her own trap of words. Icy blues traveled from his form in a swift movement, captivated by the lingering man over the door recognizable as a butler from his tailored butler dress her father had made him wear long ago. "Yes, Lukas?"

The Butler called Lukas gave a light gulp, his eyes traveling elsewhere but wanting to focus on the pair as if there was something he was forbidden to see. "There's a delivery man here to bring you a package, miss." With a fidget of his white gloved hands, his voice lowered down with its shaking undertone.

"Why didn't you take the package then, silly." Lilly kept talking over the small plucks her agile inhumane speed kept picking up, making it quicker and easier for Caleb.

"That's the thing. The boy said it's a personal delivery, something that had to be delivered in person."

Her hand lifted in the air and dismissed with a simple flicker of her wrist, nodding off distractedly. Lukas, knowing that had been a yes, took the door with him to only leave a crack open before he went back downstairs to take the messenger boy and escort him into his room. "Mistress Ruby is with her boyfriend at the moment, but if you knock before you enter, you'll be greeted. Come, I'll show you to your destination." With that, Lukas set off once again up the stairs in hopes that the boy would follow.

Caleb stared up at the slender woman hovering over him. Any man would have smiled under such perfect circumstances and toyed around with the awkwardly but perfectly settled position. However, Caleb was not any man. The paths his thoughts traveled seemed to have a bumper holding them on course and keeping them from ever sliding into the gutter. Still, Caleb was no angel, no god or saint. He contained the simplest of male flaws. Even his mental naive had it's gaps. His harbored youthful innocence was slowly stripped away by the glaring limelight of fame and the simple exposure of life. Yet, the attention she had captured from him didn't hold light hearted frolic. He was struggling with her simple, once in a blue moon orders. The little zing of pain wasn't nearly as bad as he made it out to be but Caleb was made for stage and theatrics, over dramatizing was his mindset, a form of entertainment on the dullest of evenings. He forced his blue eyes to yield a squint as the sensation of the zing vague and had come with no visible movement from Lilly. He was determined that it couldn't possibly be a phantom pain. His right hand moved off her hip to his face to check to see if any affliction had been placed there but catching her pleas, he changed his mind and his hand ducked for a course around her arm and to her right side, delivering an obnoxious, tickling side squeeze. "Cheater." He knew she had used her vampiricy against him, it wasn't the first quick movement he'd fallen victim too but it was still a rare few. For whatever strange reasons, the couple saved each other from suffering everything they were and seemed to dance around some shallow reality that both were perfectly accepting of. "Oh, trust me." Though under siege, Caleb's eyebrows rose making his eyes wider in feigned seriousness. "I'm going to do a lot to..." the movment of her eyes caused his words to hang while his voice slid down a scale into a near silence "you." He attempted to inch himself up to get a glimpse of what had caught her attention but, she was back to work, forcing him to keep still. Lukas. Caleb recognized the name to be the Butler. Despite Caleb's occasional lingerings in Lilly's house, he hadn't had very few run ins with the man. For the duration of their conversation, Caleb remained still but as soon as he felt the absence of Lukas' presence, he reverted back to Lilly's problem. "So... are you getting your present?" He didn't know what silent language had passed between Lilly and the butler but a delivery sounded like reason enough to get him out of her beautifying clutches. "It's not like I'll get that far when you come back." A grin snuck onto his face to confuse the reality of the statement as truth or lie.

[something like that... just saying, since i don't really know what the next steps will be. they're both dressed like slores. Caleb's only got really comfy grey sweatpants on. this is a very incriminating situation]

[Dara]

(aww i only birrowed him for a minute... or three... Also apologies ahead of time for a sucky post)

"Mistress Ruby is with her boyfriend at the moment" Those six words just made him even more nervous than before. Why was Caleb even there, didnt he have music to learn.Why pick today of all days to visit her. It was a bad omen that he was there with her when Neo was here on his errand. He cursed his ill luck and asked himself once more why he hadnt let Lukas do it ,The offering, the gift for his goddess. No he had to swallow his nerve and take it upstairs and hope for a little luck.

"Are you coming" Lukas paused on the stairs having checked to see if Neo was following. "Yes sir" Neo realised then he hadnt moved,Scurrying up the styairs he quickly came to heel behind the butler. As they walked the remainer of the stairs he thought over the words he would say to Lilly. He wanted no mistakes, no slip ups everything had to be perfect and neither Caleb or Lilly realise whom he really was. Knocking twice at the allocated door he forgot to wait to be told he could enter.

His eyes wandered over Lilly's perfect flawless form and wondered not for the first time how lucky he was. The demon would give up his very soul for Lilly to love him just for one day. Not that he knew that day would come... he was a realist after all. These few moments in her company would have to ease the thirst of the want he could never have. His gaze wandered up and down her long legs that seemed to never end only to see them finish at the shortest of shorts. Letting his eyes wander further up her body he realised she truly was a goddess, a work of art fresh from Heaven itself.

It was then he rembered Caleb, it was then he tore his gaze away from her beautiful form. Licking his lips he found them dry. Would Caleb make a fuss just because he'd dared to look a moment too long. He rembered all to well his 'rival' and the way he fought.It would be a tough fight, that and it would ruin the gift and the reasons behind its giving,

"Miss Ruby" He began with a descreet cough to claim her attensions, doubting he needed it but he figured thats what Staff did " Miss Ruby Im sorry to disturb you and the Gentleman"
The words were strange on his tounge. and he prayed his tone of voice was correct. He wanted, no Needed for the pair to just see a delivery boy and not him "But I really have to get this package to you today" He offered the gift box in one hand "I will need you to sign the note to say youve had it"The clipboard with the delivery form was in his other. Perfectally balanced thanks to the practise he'd put in beforehand.

Now all he had left to do was wait, and hope everything was still going according to plan. Hed wait on the pair's reaction to his small performance.

[Asphyxia]

Cheater. The simple wording and tone of voice spoken in scraped underneath her professionalism and dug deeper until it found one of her heart breaking smiles, the rarest of smiles that would have melted even the most hardest to thaw hearts. The smile rippled beautifully across her stained lips in a gracious, instantaneous, fluid movement accompanied with a sparkling blare of her unnaturally sharped whites underneath invitingly immaculate skin. It had been the sweet talks of her succumbed boyfriend that kept her spirits aloft in their too cute of moments; the kind of airy, silly exchange between the couple that kept their star-crossed, sickening love strong and ongoing. The oppressing challenges that have passed through hand in their live just brought them somehow closer to a further tangent that kept their shallow reality within action. Neither minded and both often forgot they were inhumane in a way, one dominant and the other recessive. Caleb had to double check what was the cause of his feeling without a single handed wrong turn and Lilly had perfectly caught it, ready to slap his prince hand away but in redemption, his hand tickled along the perfect hourglass contours of her shapely figure. His icy cerulean eyes gave a quick skim of his expressions when his empty threats commenced, empty threats that usually meant intimate, amorous moments that never prolonged to the point of over carrying toward something inappropriate, but didn't necessarily keep a PG or even PG-13 rating. An unusual pull at the end of her big, feline eyes denoted the squint of question about the momentary pause before he spoke now after the quick, buzzing exchanges between her butler and herself. Her adoration's little comments brought a fluttering, silver bell chime giggle to the peak of her pressed roses before her beloved's wishes were momentarily granted. Icy cerulean's picked up her peripheral, the uneven pace of a new human being approaching her door and walking in already, catching briefly his first intake of her obviously and blunt inappropriate attire for visitors. With little to no care the goddess approached her blond saint faux-upset, pointing playfully a slender porcelain at him. "Stay." The digits splayed neatly apart and skewed vertically to emphasize her words before she turned her look back to the bell boy. Something about him seemed oddly familiar, a feeling swarming in her, her mind automatically comparing facial features, wanting to know. It felt like she should have, like she should have known his name; after all, it was her sole duty to know all her inhabitants. "Oh." She said a little troubled. It seemed like she was torn apart in making some tough decision. It dawned on her, however, that she needn't to move from her place. "That's odd. I thought I had said no personal packages." Lilly had been once clear of never receiving alien things: sometimes they were from fans that wanted to harm her or that were obsessed with her and her overnice heart simply didn't want any grief with her beloved. "Hmwell. Lemme sign it." Without moving from her place, the stunning vampire tucked the tweezers between her exposed skin and her shorts to grab a hold of the offering pen and paper she'd be given to sign.

[Little Lion]

Caleb stilled himself for the instant of his lover's precious laugh. He made himself every kind of fool to coax the melodic noise out. The noise had him transfixed, momentarilly longing for the figure inching away from him. It's memory had overpowered the words the delivery boy were saying. He might have been standing half way across the world and it would have been the same difference to Caleb. "Stay" Her voice was enough for him without any meaning but as this one sunk into his spinning, little gray cells, it knitted an impromptu frown on his features. "Not a dog..." He whispered quietly, his eyes wandering across the room for an exit other then where the dilvery boy was blocking. The voice in his head offered him tempting, though touchy, advice. Cat. You do what you want. Get up. Caleb's head moved in a small nod to himself, True.
His eyes rotated back to Lilly, focusing on the small of her back, listening to the brief exchanges between her and errand boy. Something had been said that was enough to get him off the couch. Long strides got him across the room in a seemingly face amount of time, but to him it had been a very lazy approach. "You did." A repsonse to Lilly's anti-package statement. The star's manager had set up a mail system for Caleb which in turn extended to Lilly. Fan mail poured in for him and on the offshoot, for her too. However, people had been assigned to pick out and make note of the hate mail and any threats that seemed overly specific or packages that had something more then a stuffed animal.
"Who's it from?" Caleb asked, peering at the package and then the errand boy. It was a standard question that slipped out rather mindlessly. He had a feeling he wouldn't even know the person but, it never hurt to ask. As he waited for the answer, his eyes were moving from one person to the other and then the door. He was biding his time before a great escape. His eyes skipped back to the delivery man. They took a slender shape as he began to squint, staring harder at the person. When his eyes relaxed, there was no movement to show he had recognized the boy, perhaps he'd given up trying.

[sort of. I figured I owed something. I'm going to take a nap! xD]

[Dara]

A confident smile etched itself on his dry lips. The long studyied plan seemed to own no flaw, but that didnt mean he wasnt out the woods yet. It would only count as a success should two things happen. The first the appraisal and liking, no adoring the Jewellry ,he'd brought for her. The second was of course a clean get away.Even if the second was unachievable the first was a Must.Otherwise this whole charade was for nothing.Soon he would have his answer and he couldnt wait.

He had to tell himself not to focus on the slender perfect movements as Lilly approached him claiming both pen and delivery docket.He was sure at this point neither couple had recognised him. It earnt a tick on his mental checklist. He was shocked slightly that Caleb didnt respond well to the command of Stay.The demon would give away the credit to the singer but the devine moment of the package opening was for Lilly and her eyes only.

'Who's it from?' the question that begged an answer.Yet it wasnt Neo's place to issue the words 'Mr C de Lavalle' and the address with it, that was of course care of Delta's Manger. Those words belonged to Lilly should she decide to share them with her boyfriend. Neo's hope was to be witness to the impact fully along with the divine moment of the opening of the packet, without the impedeing dismissal at the end of his duty. He just wished she would hurry up.

[Asphyxia]

The silent mumbles of her angel caused a chiming giggle that her lips curled in to stifle. It was a simple, playful gesture of her part; Caleb had already had his fun with her multiple times in history [recaps to No You Girls? xD] and it was the vampire's turn to do the silly things he usually did. Her attention span had been turned away from her adoration as the bell boy approached the couch with the signing papers and the package. A slenderly hand stabbed through the air with vampire agility, grabbing the clipboard from his hand and grabbing the package in the other, placing it on Caleb's chest in the meanwhile of her distracting signature. Her fingers beautifully hovered circles, scratching the pen with no effort over the paper, creating intricate loops into an elegant handwriting of her own before returning the clipboard to the boy. Her icy blues shadowed slightly by the tighten of her skin against her eyeballs into a squint, trying to place that face somewhere. The colors were all wrong, and the attire was just a playful throw off, but her mind, her mind still wanted to recognize those features, especially the tell-tale eyes. A cold tingle poked down her spine; Lilly felt as if she'd had history with those eyes, a history that wasn't created too far away from the living present. Shaking it away by the rotate of her shoulders causing her crimson locks to wave and tumble behind her back, the hands once again distracted themselves with grasping the package, a new look brightening her stunning features. Her eyes had a new glint of happiness, like a kid opening their mysterious Christmas present. She rattled it slightly, trying to see if she could make a wild guess out of it, but it didn't rattle to her disappointment. Instead, the blues hovered around the sticker planted on the white box to see who the sender was. Upon reading, her slender eyebrows pulled in an encountering furrow, the skin between them puckering slightly, the look screaming a mixture of confusion and question. "Wait, what?" The red head's mind reeled slightly, time traveling as her head pulled further back from the set of her narrow shoulders, her head snapping to watch her beautiful prince that was underneath her. "Caleb? You sent me this? But I'm right here." It wasn't something she couldn't understand, but she proceeded to open it anyway, her fingers dismissing her statement and beginning to rip the carton from their sealed tape. The await in her eyes widened just a bit, but the brows flattened - another box. A black, velvet one this time with golden letters carved on them. What does he have up on his sleeve? Producing the small, flat box from inside the white, bigger one, Lilly's fingers curled underneath to hold the black box while her other hand busied themselves to unlock it open. The big, feline eyes widened prodigiously at the sparkling, golden view from inside the silky fabric, slowly speculating the golden necklace. Diamonds truly were a girls best friend, and this one had a simplistic but yet intricate and frailly carved sparkling diamond right in the middle. "Caleb..." the words whispered through her tainted lips escaped in a small exasperated sigh, as if her voice had been lost and recently found. "You... shouldn't have."

[laaaame I know xD but here you go]

[Little Lion]

[oh yes. the rp of my epic failue ^^]

Caleb laid rather impatiently under the feathery weight of his beloved. It wasn't a position he could entirely say was so awful and despite his threats and wants of escape, a greater part of him could have laid there all day. He angled his eyes down his nose to study the box placed on his chest trying to glimpse an angle of a name or a company logo. The girl was quick, she already had it back in her hands with a shimmy and a shake. The excitement of surprise that he was picking up from her spiraled down, mingling with her confusion. "Uhm... sure." He mumbled the words just as shocked as she was. He didn't recall sending anything or having ordered anything in advance. Had he seen something in a tour city? He would have just brought it back. There was no anniversary coming so it wasn't sent early, was it? Confused, the star put his elbows into the couch and slid himself up the best he could with the immovable force on top of him. His eyes were fixed intently on the velvet box sitting in her hands, he didn't recognize any of this. The necklace tucked in the box astonished him. He would have remembered looking at that. It was intricate, it was sparkly and it looked freaking expensive. "Oh..." His gasped echoed hers on a downward sliding tone, his jaw was hanging open like an imbicile. He couldn't piece it together. How did that happen. His mother perhaps? Maybe his sister. Both of them hounded him to get Lilly something pretty like a ring. None of that fit satisfactorily enough but his reeling mind couldn't find anything else. The least he could do was play it off. "Well..." He cleared his throat and tried to gather his voice. "Let's say I didn't, then." He touched his right hand to his temple and then moved the other three fingers to his nose and angled his palm over his mouth. He didn't know if he could actually tell her he didn't. Would that ruin the moment? Would he be in trouble? His eyes slid to the delivery boy in an accusing glance. The man had delivered him a handful of unwanted mystery that he couldn't make heads or tails of. What if the mystery sender sent exploding diamonds? What then?! Caleb's naive heart was aching for answers as to who, if not himself, was flattering his dearly beloved under his name.

[fail too xD haha... hmm... this one needs msn discussion, at least for my part]

[Dara]

Everything was going perfectly, in fact both the couples reactions couldn't of gone better. The goddess's reaction was worth every minute of it. From the very moment she took the box and rattled it. Her sweet confusion at the senders address, to be mixed in with Caleb's own bewilderment. To make the singer look the fool would be added bonus, and so far he couldn't find an explanation for Neo's gift. In all reasoning and if it had been him in Caleb's place he'd of played along and checked on the true identity of the sender later.

The very moment her confused look at the second box within in the first. Idly he wondered If Caleb ever treated the crimson beauty like he had just now.The diamonds were top quality and had cost the demon a small fortune.Not that Neo cared, in his eyes Lilly was more than worth it. If she had been his girl, treats like this would be more common place, but sadly she was wasted , on Caleb. But that was just the demon's small opinion.Her gasps at his gift showed it was all worth it every penny, every minute of his planning. Even the glances from Caleb that warned of trouble ahead. Trouble He hoped to avoid, purely because he didn't want to spoil the beauty of the moment. A fight later wouldn't matter between the two males, in fact he'd love a second chance at fighting Caleb, it was a sure win on his part anyway, but for now pleasing Lilly was all that matter, something he was sure he had achieved here and now.

[Asphyxia]

Lilly's light hearted mood was too tunneled on the sparkling prize to notice her adoration's confused undertone. Her icy blues kept focusing on the glinting diamond dazzling her beauty in front of her and the breath taking details carved into the expensive-looking present. "Let's say I didn't, then." The words penetrated and crumbled down her momentary high welling up inside of her, the proud and love reclamation shared between the two. "What?" The diamond neatly hung between her slender hands was dropped down with feathery delicacy inside the velvet black box before the icy cerulean's focused on the tall blond saint underneath her shapely figure. "But it says it's from you..." Lifting the box perched on his stomach, her index finger nonchalantly underlined across his name and the address underneath the indicated sender. Before the further confusion could strike down all the sense of elation elevating her mood from their sharing moments before the bell boy had arrived, Lilly dropped the box somewhere on the floor near the couch they were strewn across and shrugged it off. "No matter." Her sing song voice easily dismissed followed by a silvery hum. It was then her peripheral registered the bell boy still there with them, and with a high-strung, "Oh!" her frame leaned forward into Caleb's, her stomach inches apart from his chest, the silvery necklace over her chest making jingling shimmery noises as it fell and puckered the fabric of her shirt, causing it to part from their secure tangent atop her shorts. Her head stretched up high to shadow and look over her precious sweetheart, watching the direction of her hand as it grabbed a smaller version of her beige make up bag, her other hand instinctively drawing the cascading crimson hair overflowing from her shoulders away to her back with one simple shake. Her hourglass figure pulled back to her previous position on top of her blond saint, her fingers busying themselves with producing a couple of bucks with various numbers on them. "Here you go." The goddess twirled her head in the delivery boy's direction, her hand outstretched with the tip with beaming, stunning features. Inside her precious little head, a new face emanated next to the bell boy and meshed together with different colored hair into one. The skin around her eyes tightened just the slightest at their tails, her chest and head inching back before they pulled forward as if inspecting a closer look. "Oh my gosh. Neo? What did you do to your hair?!" The icy blues, after dawning the realization inside of her, immediately flickered to her beloved boyfriend with a nervous racketeering phantom thrumming inside of her. The two faces meshing inside of her mind distorted and painted another distant vision of their encounters where they three of them stood together and what had happened, including Lilly's protection for her beloved adoration. The historic event leaving a pang in her gut still stung, who could even try to harm her sweetheart? He was the delicacy of nature, he was one of the few things in life that was hard to deny and to see harmed, like an overly cute puppy or kitten stray and up for adoption. It often hurt her heart's content and desire that such things she wanted to get along constantly kept conflicting with each other and co-existed in different worlds painted for her. The breathing impact muted inside of her closing stained lips were followed by the close of her eyes, causing the natural sheath of thick lashes to flourish over the healthy rings of her eyes and the defined, lifted contours of her cheeks. These were the things she wished she could take back and have done differently, the things she acted instinctively upon, a couple of the few things she wish she could think over and over a few times before acting upon so impulsively.
