Salene and Bray-Location: Unknown

[_salene_]

Salene was still squinting, a small smile grazed her lips, and though it looked like it could be from the squinting, it was also because even a bit of light made her feel better. She shook her head when he apologized, though she wasn't sure what he was apologizing for. He had a slight fever, but not enough to be frighten her, and plus, she was a

Salene looked down into Bray's face, worry lines across her forehead, her eyes reflecting the concern she felt, and before she knew what was going on he was lifting his face towards hers, lips puckered, and she was confused. What the..she pulled back just before his lips touched hers, jumping away, sitting at the end of the bed trying to figure out what had just almost happened. Was he trying to kiss her? Or was he, in his delusional state, trying to ... kiss her?! Salene felt..weird...and the emotions she was trying to suppress came flooding back at her, the old stuff, the things she did to herself to make herself desireable for this boy, the friends she fought with over this boy, and she couldn't handle it, it was too much, too close for comfort, and she had to get away.

But, there was nowhere to go..nowhere at all. She was stuck in a hovel with a boy that she had intense old feelings for that were rushing back at her and she felt so guilty for feeling this way, guilty because she loved Pride, with all of her heart, and she cared a great deal about her friend Amber, and about Bray, but not in that way and yet, here were all of these emotions, these needs and wants rushing back at her that she hadn't felt in so long, she was confused, torn and upset and she didn't know what to do anymore, so she just sat there, trying not to cry...again.

She left him,Amber had left him. He felt as though he wanted to die. He needed her and she had abandoned him.

Where was his son, he needed his son, he wanted to get up and look for him, but when he tried it was like being grabbed and held down by the arms of a thousand demons.

"Argh!" he screamed. Then he was back again, and aware. What had happened, why was he here? There was still light he hadn't imagined it. "Salene?" he called out, but his voice didn't seem to go as loud as he wanted it to.

Salene jumped when he screamed out, he sounded like he was in so much pain, and she wiped at her eyes, her nose felt all stuffy and she had a sinus headache, this much crying was not good for a person, god grow a spine already. She took a deep breath and swallowed hard, trying to grasp at something to give her some strength. "What?" she asked, sort of shortly, wondering what he wanted. If he wanted to kiss her again, or whatever it was he wanted in his altered state, she was going to..to lock herself in that bathroom...and he could just forget about her taking care of him anymore..at least..for right now..unless it was an emergency..or..something.

"Salene I don't feel so good," Bray said, his speech was becomming slurred again, and he was having problems concentrating, "W-w-what happened to Amber? Wasshe here?" he asked. He managed to sit up, and pull his shirt down with his good arm, butit was an effort to stay up.
