Getting Better (Edward)

[Valeriana Le-Ang]

{I didn't bother to continue since I just realized the the muse for that thread is gone and Ina & Eddie is very much different now so I don't really see the point. This is more of the friendship between the two so this one's completely new Hey, you can tell me about Klera in here!}

Ina was in the Greenhouse again, waiting for a friend. That same person whom she met here only a few weeks ago. She was cut up, broken and mangled then. Barely able to stand on her own. But she was better now. It turns out, time was kinder to her than what sh expected. Much kinder. She paced around slowly, taking in the magnificence of the flowers around and laughing at strangely shaped plants. Yes, she was better, but that didn't mean that she didn't have problems. That's what she wanted to talk about tonight. Mr. Wong is still a threat.

Edward walked slowly out of the castle. He had recieved another owl from ina. He had heard rumours that she was doing quite better. But he hadnt had a chance to talk to her because he hadnt been at school for a while. Instead he had been with the clan and most of all getting the house ready for himself and klera. He headed towards the greenhouses trying to hide his scars where he hads not fully recovered from the fight with the newborns.When he arrived he saw ina looking at the flowers slowly and cautiously he approached. Edward looked alot better than he had on the night of the fight but he still looked weak.

Ina kept wondering about the greenhouse. It was certainly a very entertaining place. The first time Ina went here ended in sobs and uncontrollable tears. It certainly wasn't pretty. Now, she had time to stop and smell the roses. Literally. She stooped down towards a particularly nice looking bunch of roses and stuck her nose in between the petals. The roses smelt like glory and utter femininity. Then she regretted it immediately. She whipped her face away from the roses and sneezed once...twice...and then thrice.

"Wrong...", she said as she sniffled and scratched her nose. This wasn't exactly the reaction she'd visualized when emerging from rose-sniffing. It was less than graceful.

Edward couldnt help himself he laughed. "still a goofball as usual" he called from just behind ina. His face was still badly scarred but happiness was written all over his face.

[Valeriana Le-Ang]

She didn't need to turn around to see who it was. A friend. An ally. She smiled even before she turned around.

"Edward.", she said and turned to look at him with a smile. She was happy to see somebody that she comfortable with. "Long time, no see.", she said with a nod. She wanted to hug him but that reminded her of the last time she was in his arms. Awkward, is the term. She was crying then...probably even wailing.

"How've you been?",she contented herself with a playful punch in the arm.

[Edward Jacobs]

Edward smiled. He was glad that she had not payed attention to the horrific scars over his face. "ive been alright" he said, "the real question is how are you, ive heard rumours that you are doing better now but i havnt been at school so i haqvnt been able to see you".

[Valeriana Le-Ang]

{I didn't know there was a scar. -_- LOL, nevermind}

She nodded with a sincere smile. "I have been. Time helped a lot. Haven't seen him for weeks so I guess that helped too." She finished. She wondered if she was able to see Di in those past few weeks...Would she be better? She let the question trail off. It didn't happen anyways.

"Why haven't you been up at the school, anyways?", she asked. Even though she didn't have much help with recovering, aside from time, she'd done wonders. Ina didn't want to sound too accusing. She could have used help but what's done is done. She was just grateful that he came here tonight. After all, he didn't look well at all.

[Edward Jacobs]

((nevermind i said it in the post before.))

Edward smiled. "im glad to hear it" he said smiling, "as for why i havnt been at school, i have been with my clan and then i had to recover after nearly dieing for my mate". He would have to tell her the truth.

[Valeriana Le-Ang]

"What?", Ina's eyebrows knotted. She had the impression that vampires are nearly invincible and that it was almost impossible to kill them. That is...by humans.

"Are you joking?", she asked with a quirked eyebrow. "I thought it was hard to kill vampires. You weren't attacked by humans, were you? And why in the hell were you attacked anyways?"

[Edward Jacobs]

Edward sighed. This would be a very confusing story. "well im not sure if i can tell you so once i do you cant tell anybody" he said, "ok well my mate was on a job for the clan during that dance at the school and the job was to defeat some newborn vampires before they had anytime to do any harm, anyway she left and i followed, once i got close to where she was i heard her scream and when i got there there were two of them and they had her pinned against a bin and they were smashing her head into it and the other one was ready to bite her, so i shot a curse to distract them and i jumped in between my mate and the vampires, they were much stronger than me and when i finally ripped them both apart and burned them i was extreamly weak and i fainted and if it wasnt for another member of the clan i would be dead right now". He finished taking out a vial from his pocket and drinking it. Then he made a face at the taste and put it away.

"New borns, huh?", she said, nodding. She'd heard that new borns were extremely strong, even stronger than older vampires. But the problem was that they had no sense of control. The drive for blood cancels out other mental capabilities.

She then looked at Edward with a smirk. "And, let's go back to this..mate of yours, seeing that you're pretty much okay now. Who is she?", she asked, excited that her friend has somebody in his life. She's a lucky girl.

[Edward Jacobs]

Edward smiled. "her names klera elric, she is in my year and we are the same age in vampire years and human years" he said happily, "and we have got a house now so we are ready to start our new life". He looked down at her and messed up her hair with his hand. She was like a sister to him. "so enough about me what about you shorty" he teased.

[Valeriana Le-Ang]

"Gah, Don't.", she said weakly, trying to swat Eddie's hand away, but she couldn't. She liked being around him. Like an older sibling she never had. She sighed as she straightened up.

"I don't know. I'm just....", she shrugged. "I took some time off and focused on my studies and I guess that helped in a way. Time passed and I just realized, one day that I'm okay already."

She chuckled at a thought. "For quite some time, I actually thought that I'd never get better. I did some terrible things but I guess it goes to show that experience is the best teacher."

[Edward Jacobs]

Edward smiled. "im glad to hear it" he said smiling, "ahh life is great". He walked over to a plant and picked it up interested in it. "so are you ready to talk to di again" he asked taking out his wand and flicking it to levitate the plant.

[Valeriana Le-Ang]

Ina huffed, unconsciously. Whenever she thinks of Di or whenever he's mentioned, she gets serious. Like, there was something unresolved between them. She was well but she still needs closure. Nonetheless, there were more pressing matters at hand.

"Actually, yes. I think I need to anyways.", she said to Edward as she plucked a leaf from the plant that he was levitating. "I think he's been well too but we both need some type of closure. Everything ended so horribly.", she said and shook her head.
