[39] The Impossible [open]

[jiyuna_togabito]

[This couldn't be happening. It was almost like a conspiracy. The two apostles gone and now this!? Aion slowly began to open his eyes as he stared at the ground from his given position. The sudden flow of air into his lungs forced him to violently cough as residual blood splatted out. He angrily gritted his teeth as he managed to stand and lean against the wall of the building. The hair follicles left around his neck and suit gradually fell to the floor. He didn't know what the hell that thing was but the sensation he was feeling throughout his body gave him the verdict of what had happened. His skin cold as ice, it was the same feeling he felt when the demon touched the Saint's skin. He was certain he was the walking dead.

The sinner weakly began to walk out of the private room of the casino and headed towards the exit. There were no longer damages to his body but his suit was stained in red and the shear exhaustion remained; making it difficult to check the messages on his phone and keep his balance in check without the support of something. After checking them, he violently shut it and tossed it into his pocket. Lilith's mindless blabbering was unsettling. He had to make it back home soon to find out the truth behind it.]

[[ooc: Sooo yea, the unseen creature attacked Aion and rid of him in the process since he didn't do that deities tribute ->W>-;;; so right now he's on his way back to the Cathedral. I made it an open action log in case anyone wanted to possibly help him (especially if they don't know him? LOL), mock him (which yea, don't beat him up too much~ -TTWTT-;;;, or something~ lol between the time of leaving the Casino and making it to the Cathedral. And Lore~ action log for Lilith is a go~<333 Thanks!]]

[Lilith returned in ten minutes with a tray neatly prepared with beans, fried eggs, bacon, fried toast and dark coffee.]

[Feeling his cheek with his thumb as he browsed through the book, Aion looked up seeing Lilith return and closed it. Placing it back onto his desk, he stared at the food coming towards him and took in its scent.]

Smells good.

[Lilith smiled and unfolded a napkin over Aion's torso before lowering the tray.]

Thank you. If you need more coffee, call me. Leave the tray on the nightstand when you finish, I will retrieve it later.

[He lightly sighed and waited for her to set things up. He grabbed the utensils and began to cut.]

All right. [He bit into a piece of the egg when he realized. The flavor was there but the sensation of it going down felt as if it were passing through an empty never-ending tunnel. No hunger or satisfaction of being full. This was the feeling he was lacking.]

[Lilith waits outside the room until he finishes. She respects Aion's privacy, but she's unable to leave him alone after the traumatic experience he had lived and she wasn't there to help him.

It was her fault for leaving him alone. Her fault he died.]

[Aion finished most of it though simply stuffing his face wasn't cutting it anymore. He placed the half-eaten tray on the nightstand as she had requested and took his glasses off, pinching the bridge of his nose.

Finally rest. He began to slip under the covers.]

[Quietly, Lilith entered to the room, making no noise to not disturb him as she retrieved his tray of food. He didn't eat all, but she wouldn't lecture him about that.]

[Aion slowly opened his eyes half way and silently watched her retrieve the tray until she was about to leave.]

Thanks Lilith. It was delicious.

[She turned around and left the tray on the chair near the door. She tried to give him space, but that was Aion, so vulnerable and so tired. She reached for the covers to tuck him in properly.]

I made it as you would like, nothing too sweet.

[She leaned on his forehead and gave him a tender kiss.]

Sleep well. If the monster returns, I will chase it away, dear.

[He began to close his eyes again when she came back and tucked him in. Slightly widening his eyes to the sudden affection, Aion stared at her dumbfounded and let out an exhausted sigh to her following words.]

Lilith...

[Lilith looked down at him, worried about the look he was throwing at her]

You don't want me to leave?

[Aion's eyebrow rose and gave her the "look" as he grumbled.]

What are you taking me for?

[holymadonna.livejournal.com]

A big baby, my big baby.

[She teased, stroking his forehead.]

[jiyuna_togabito]

[B-Baby... She called him a baby. No one has every called him a baby! Aion turned his head away to angrily grunt.]

I'm sorry I even asked considering today's curse.

[holymadonna.livejournal.com]

A curse... Maybe you should rest. I don't read about a curse today.

[jiyuna_togabito]

[He slightly glanced back thinking of that possibility and quickly shot it down. No, she isn't this affectionate towards him.]

All right, I will.

[holymadonna.livejournal.com]

Sweet dreams.

[She wished before leaving the room, shutting the door softly behind her.]
