Killing me softly

[LavyBrown]

Lavy shrugged, "I swing by here once in a blue moon when my life starts falling apart. So you might have, yes."

She looked away from everyone out over the lake. She really did miss this place sometimes. It felt like home. Somehow in the few hours she had been back she had managed to meet four new people. She liked feeling like...she wasn't ''something that needed to be dealt with''. She shivered at the memory of those words that had once been said about her. She wanted to feel like the people around her wanted to be around her because they liked her, not because she could do something for them. Her bright bubble abrutly popped, leaving her feeling lonely again.

Jackie looked at Lavy's face, studying it.  It was if her blue eyes were looking through her.  "Is something bothering you?"  Jackie asked tentativly.

[LavyBrown]

"Yes actually, to be honest with you."

Stacey greeted the people that just stepped into the concersation. ((which seems to be a lot, someone was busy over the past 24 hours)) She had kinda blacked out for a few minutes.

[Lola_La_Fringe7]

"Yes actually, to be honest with you."

"Such as?"  Jackie persisted, then though she realized that she may be pushing it a bit.  "You don't have to answer if you don't want to."  She quickly added, but in a soft voice.

[LavyBrown]

Lavy smiled but it didn't reach her eyes, "I don't mind telling you for my own sake. I just don't want to give you nighmears."

[Lola_La_Fringe7]

"Oh, no trust me. I'll be fine. I don't really have dreams except for about water.  That might sound really weird, but considering that I'm a Siren.  Its pretty normal."  Jackie replied thinking a bit.

[LavyBrown]

Lavy shrugged, decideing that she really did want to tell someone,"I guess I should start at the beginning so please get comforatable. It's a long story."

[I loves YOUz]

Pete sat back slightly and looked at her and waited.

[LavyBrown]

"This all started about two years ago. I met a man who, to be honest with you, I fell in love with. Not the cheesy, teenager love. Real ''I would give up everything for you'' love. But about three months ago everything seemed to start and fall apart. He went missing for about three weeks and when he came back he was completly different. He hated everything and everyone and he told me he never wanted to see me again. After that it just all went downhill from there."

[I loves YOUz]

Pete didn't know what to say. He felt bad for her. He has had hi sheart broken many times, but her love sounded ten times worse. It sadden him. "Do you know why he hated everything?" he asked her.

Jackie stared into space for a moment.  She had never really loved a guy.  She couldn't, she wouldn't, she could never know if he liked her for her, not her Siren form.  "How was he different when he came back?"  Jackie asked with enough emotion in her voice that she was comforting, but not so she was faking.

[LavyBrown]

"I don't know.  But I know it's over now. He almost let me die a month ago. He just stood there while I was bleeding on the floor. Just the look in his eyes told me he didn't care anymore. I'm just another pawn in his game."

She paused, wondering if she wanted to go any farther, "He wants me dead. He came after me last night. That's why I'm here. This is the only place he can't touch me. I don't want you guys to think less of him. Something happened to him when he went missing. I just haven't figured it out."

[Lola_La_Fringe7]

"Well, the fact that he tried to kill you, that explains that he changed.  But why come after you?"  Jackie said, partly muttering to herself.  "There is just one question that I have.  Who is he?" She asked aloud and clearly.

"Harsh." Stacey mumbled when Lavy made her last comment.
