[Roleplay] The Rebuilding - Continuation of The Aftermath

[toxapex]

Sage snuggles up close to me, and I feel contentedly warm. I'm so comfortable that I fall asleep with Sage in my embrace.

 

[Naiad]

I frown. ".... Blaze, are you jealous.....?" I trail off.

There's no way, right?

Even if he's jealous, it's too ****ing late.
His wrongs will never make a right. A person like him doesn't deserve another chance.

 

[Myst]

"No... yes... maybe..."

(Tokay, I see you! Stop being a sneaky-sneak! ;3 )

 

[Naiad]

I want to trust him...

But you shouldn't, not after what happened the first few times.

I know. Sometimes I wish that he won't betray me....

And some wishes will forever stay wishes.

I smile softly. ".... Never thought that you'd be getting jealous over me." I laugh. "It feels nice to know that you care, even if only a bit."

I will try to not give this man my trust.

Not try to not. Will not.

 

[Myst]

"Am I keeping you awake?" I ask, in an attempt to exit the conversation. I really don't know what else to tell her...

I release Sai from the hug but stand nearby in case she needs me again... ****ing Blaze... Always screws up everyone's lives... Not even looking back to see all the damage he's done... I sigh.

 

[Naiad]

I glance at Mace. "I'm fine." I sigh and mentally slap myself. "... Sorry, it slipped my mind. You're tired, right? You should probably get some sleep."

 

[Myst]

"Yeah... kinda... But if you want to talk more, I can..."

I fall asleep in Helix's embrace.

 

[Naiad]

"... Maybe another time. Night, Blaze. Stay safe."

 

[Myst]

"I love you." I hang up then fall asleep on the couch.

 

[Naiad]

I shove the phone back into my pocket and rub my eyes. "..... I'm going to go. Sorry about this, Mace."

 

[Myst]

"I don't mind but... are you alright?" I ask, concerned.

 

[Naiad]

I might not be able to sleep tonight... too much to think about.

There are pills in your bag. Use them.

I smile weakly. "..... I definitely wasn't expecting another love confession."

I know.....

What?

I know that even if he tells the truth, he will never truly be mine. I— I can't handle someone like that...

.... You're in luck, then. Odds are, he's lying and just wants to use you again.

 

[Myst]

I pull Sai into a hug and softly say, "Don't let him in... He'll only hurt you more..."

 

[Naiad]

"I know, Mace. I know."

But knowing something is correct is not the same as accepting that something is correct.
Do not surrender yourself again, Sai. Your current scars are already too large.

 

[Myst]

I sigh. "Don't do the same thing over and over again expecting different results. So far, he's been consistent to his character... I even have quite a few stories about him that will surprise you... He's not who you think he is. He's even worse..."

 

[Naiad]

I smile weakly. "Tomorrow, maybe? I— I just need to get some rest right now..."

 

[Myst]

"Sure." I release her from the hug. "If you need anything, just come to me." I smile at her.

 

[Naiad]

"Thanks...." I grab my pillow and leave Mace's office.

-----

I open the door to Sage's room. Sleep....

I freeze when I see Sage and Helix. "I— I would like to have had something like that...."

Life is a *****.

I change into my pajamas and swallow my sleeping pills.

..... But still, I want to be happy like that, Lia.

Go to sleep.

I sign and crawl into my bed. "....Night..." I murmur before falling into a restless sleep.

 

[Myst]

I turn off the lights and go to my room attached to my office. I fall asleep.

 

[nard]

( Okay, so I'm going to assume it's nighttime and all the lights are off. )


I open my eyes, but only see darkness. Am I still sleeping? My eyes finally adjust. "Oh..." I slowly get up and go to the door. I quietly open it. I need to find an actual bed around here. That one's too... hard to lay one. It hurts my back. I sneak out into the hallway, trying not to make a sound.


I eventually reach a door. As silently as possible, I creak it open and find it to be a storage closet, with cleaning supplies. Still better. I go in and shut the door behind me. I move a vacuum out of the way and sit down. I scrunch myself into a ball and sleep once again.
