diazlucy:

Lucy walked toward the waterline, shrugging off her jacket and kicking off her shoes. She shrugged her tank top off and then she noticed the man in the water. “Damn, I thought this was my secret skinny-dipping spot.” Lucy continued on stripping, taking off her shorts, before looking back to the man. “Can I help you?”

      Unimpressed, the hunter gave a short “no” as he moved closer to the shore and searched for his clothes in the dim light the moon provided through the branches of trees. Lacey wasn’t looking for a conversation, especially not with whoever this girl was. “You can’t do anything for me.” All he wanted was Dawn, but was too angry to really even admit that to himself.

[laceydenny]

dawn-hartman:

Pulling her knees up to her chest, Dawn wrapped her arms around them and kept her gaze out at the lake, afraid to look at him because if she did she knew she would start crying, and she knew that if she cried in front of him all it would do was make him angry again. It was a vicious circle, one that she missed being caught up in - because it was with him.

“I never –” She began, her voice raised for only a moment before she closed her mouth and let out another sad sigh. “I’m not lying,” Her head hung as her voice came out in barely a whisper. “I miss you.”

      “I miss you.”

      Do not, he thought. Do not go back to her to tell her off. But what did he do? He marched over to her, towering over in his height and Lacey just stared. All of his anger dissipated to petty frustration and the looming male tore away from her to try to collect his thoughts, but for once words were coming out faster than he could stop them and Lacey hated the honesty of every single one of them.

     “You don’t get to miss me. You don’t get to look at me and say that you’re sorry or that you tried, because you didn’t try hard enough. If you did, I wouldn’t have spent a week thinking you’d died and there was nothing I could do to protect you or stop it.” Was his voice shaking or was that just his body? He didn’t want to figure out which was the fact and which was in his mind.

aleksandriavann:

“You look you didn’t want to see me here. Well tough luck I’m here and I need to have my swim”.She said before she gently slid into the water before swimming up to him. “I won’t be long”

      “Don’t come near me.” He warned her, leaning back as she approached him in the water. She just didn’t seem to get it, did she? There was no part of him that wanted to be cordial or polite with her. It could be one second, one year, an entire millennium and each second with her would be just as excruciating for him no matter the length of time.

[laceydenny]

dawn-hartman:

“I’m sorry.” Her eyes cast down to the ground as she backed up further onto the bank, shying away from the hunter as he climbed out of the water. She could feel the tension in the air and it only caused a sadness to fill the pit of the blonde’s stomach. She’d hated being on her own the past week, but more than that, she missed Lacey; and seeing him again only made it worse. Especially when he was still so mad at her for doing something that she’d had to do, even if he didn’t understand it.

Softly sighing at his admission that he was leaving, Dawn moved back to the shoreline while being careful to steer clear of the man she cared so much about, and sat back down with her feet in the water. “Okay.” She said meekly, “It was good to see you.” She dared a glance at him before looking back out at the lake and waiting for him to leave, something she would hate to have to get used to but was looking more and more like she was going to have to.

      Lacey had every intention of leaving. He’d done it once and it shouldn’t have been hard to do it once more, but he wasn’t sure what was stopping him now. Pausing in his steps, he wasn’t sure how to go about this. Things with Dawn always ended with her crying and he wasn’t sure if today was a day where he’d lose his steam at her tears or just grow angrier at the sight of them. 

      The thing that got to him was her last sentence. 

      “Don’t lie to me.” He grit out. “You lied to me once all ready, don’t do it again.”

[laceydenny]

aleksandriavann:

Aleksandria was making her way to the lake for her late night swim,she loved the lake especially when the sky was as clear as that night. She began to take off her shoes when she stumbled against a bush. Hearing the voice she made her way closer to the bank,showing herself to the stranger that was swimming in the lake. “I didn’t startle you,did I”

     “You again.” He all but groaned, wanting to sit beneath the water’s surface until he ran out of oxygen.

[laceydenny]

dahlianavess:

        Dahliana never really found herself near the water. She was rather indifferent towards the element; neither liking nor wanting to stay away. The woman was bored, though. And she needed a new sight instead of looking over paper work or repeat episodes of F.R.I.E.N.D.S. So here she found herself, walking through a trail close to the water late at night. Her sharp eyes had already spotted a male relaxing in the water, and she really didn’t care for making any conversation right now, so determined to not be ground, she was about to detour when she unintentionally kicking a rock which make it clatter loudly against the silent night.

        The werewolf groaned lightly upon hearing the stranger call out, and she made herself seen shortly afterwards with her hands up cautiously, wanting to give him some piece of mind. “No one to worry about.” Is her response, a ghost of a grin on her lips.

      No one to worry about is what she said, but he wasn’t sure that was a fact. It would be up to him to decide if shew as a threat or not, but he found himself too tired to fight anyone in the moment. There was one thing that he wanted, but he couldn’t have it and Lacey was very aware as to why. With no rhyme or reason, only having ever had healthy relationships and never a problem with having his emotions too prominent in any of them, the only different between now and then was the type of girl he found himself with. Everything would be easier if she wasn’t a witch.

      “So you say.” He mumbled to himself, moving from the water to his things, sliding the clothes over his still wet skin without caring about he way it clung to his skin. “What are you doing out here?”

[laceydenny]

dawn-hartman:

Dawn had found herself out at the lake more times than she could count within the last week, using the time alone to work on her magic as she sat at the edge of the water with her feet fully submerged. She’d had her hands hovering over the top of the smooth surface, causing small jets of water to jut up out of the stillness, hitting her hands and then falling back. It was a small piece of magic, but one that she’d begun to find comforting as she sat alone in the dark.

But as she heard some splashing and noticed a figure move closer to shore, the blonde froze, instantly recognizing the voice. Standing up rather quickly and almost tripping over own feet before backing up away from the shoreline, Dawn debated on simply running into the darkness and away from him. It’d been a week since she’d seen Lacey and while her bruises had almost completely faded, their last encounter had been anything but pleasant and the memories were still fresh in her mind. “I’m sorry,” She spoke timidly as she grabbed her shoes, “I didn’t know anyone else was here.”

      Seeing Dawn did nothing to make the situation any less tense. Lacey wanted her out of his sight, out of his presence, but most of all the male wanted her out of his head. He hated the way she’d looked when he left a week ago, opting to sleep in his car and spend time deep in the woods rather than socialise because it felt better and more like home. How was he supposed to trust her on her own when she didn’t give him a reason to? “Well, no you know.” He groused out, pushing out of the water and going for his clothes.

      If anything, he didn’t know how to accurately tell her why he was upset and that was more frustrating than anything else. “Do whatever you were going to do. I’m leaving.”

[laceydenny]

      Night swimming had always been part of his life. From a younger age, he could remember dipping into cold water on summer nights thick with heat and the song of cicadas in the background as his sisters kept their laughs quiet so as not to let their parents know they were out. He could remember his father taking him down to the lake in order to teach him how to swim, how to manoeuvre that water, but know that he’d never get away from a mermaid or siren without a concealed weapon.

      Relaxation took hold of him until there was a noise that had the male turning and swimming closer to the shore of the lake. “Who’s out there?” He called, eyes narrowing as he struggled to see in the dark. His weapons were next to his clothes, too far away to reach in time if it was a threat, but he felt his hand to hand combat was good enough to stall until he could reach his gun.

       “Not everything and everyone has to have a motive for something, you know that right? It’s important to me that you know that.” Sienna shook her head. “I don’t get anything out of it. Seriously - nothing. Or well, having a friend might be something, but from what I know of you so far, you don’t seem like the kind of guy who has friends either.”

      “I’ll keep it in mind.” He sighed, not quite convincing in his delivery. “A friend? You want us to be friends? I find that hard to believe.”

[laceydenny]

dawn-hartman:

Dawn flinched once more when he threw another object onto the ground, causing a loud crash and shards of glass to fly everywhere. A piece had gone so far to cause a small scratch in Dawn’s cheek, a scratch that would deactivate the charm that was hiding the bruises on her face and neck, but Dawn didn’t notice. All she could focus on was Lacey gathering all of this things, getting ready to leave and walk out of her life, something she wasn’t sure if she could handle at the moment. “Lacey… Lacey, please. Please don’t.” She choked out over her tears, “Please..” She took a step towards him, being careful not to step on the broken shards, but quickly stopped as he began to speak once more.

His tone was hateful, horrible - it sounded almost exactly like her father’s voice - and she couldn’t take it, she completely broke down. Moving back up against the wall and sliding down it, the blonde pulled her knees up to her chest and wrapped her arms tightly around them. “I’m sorry.” Her voice started out quiet, but once he told her she was going to be on her own it got louder and everything she’d been trying to say since his tirade began quickly came spilling past her lips. “I’m sorry, okay! I knew you wouldn’t let me go so I left but I tried to text you at least three times to tell you I was okay! So that you wouldn’t worry! Please don’t go, Lacey. You know I need you.”

With a steady stream of tears falling down her face she found the strength to stand up and slowly remove her clothing until she was down to just her underwear. “You wanted to see this?” Her voice was softer, she wasn’t yelling anymore as she stood completely vulnerable in front of him. “Well here you go. Please don’t go.”

      He wasn’t listening. Lacey could hear her apologies, but they didn’t register as he kept packing his things, fitting as many items as he could into two bags without even glancing in her direction. He wasn’t going to sit around protecting her when she didn’t needed it apparently. Lacey had let his feelings get in the way, let them cloud the truths that he knew and what it came down to was the fact that they would never be together and he realised that now.

      When he finally looked up, Lacey was at the door and he couldn’t see Dawn from that vantage point. “Have fun, Dawn. Or don’t.” He didn’t care at this point. Dealing with her was exhausting and he was tired of going back and forth with this, with her. There was nothing she could say to him in this state that would stop him and it was almost relieving to slam the door after himself as he made it out.

[laceydenny]

siennaogilvy:

       “Of course you don’t…” Sienna muttered, shaking her head. “Hey, buster, I never said you were awful, and I don’t know - I’m curious? Wondering? Possibly perplexed? Attempting to make a conversation? Any one of those work for you?”

      “I’m not used to people just being curious without a motive, so why? What do you get from this?”

[laceydenny]

dawn-hartman:

She hadn’t moved an inch since he’d rushed at her, her back still pressed against the wall and her hands clenched at her sides, nails digging into the soft flesh of her palms as she hoped it all would end soon. She’d opened her mouth to tell him she hadn’t but quickly closed it when he began to speak again. All she wanted to do was apologize for making him worry and explain why she’d done what she had. She loved her family, even her parents, and given the opportunity to go meet the newest addition, well she wasn’t going to pass that up. She’d face the danger simply because of her loyalty to  her bloodline, the loyalty that had been beaten into her since she was a young child.

But when he finally turned to speak to her, Dawn had pretty much lost her ability to speak. “I…” She began meekly, but nothing would come out after that. Her eyes lifted to look at him, wide and full of fear, and she simply shook her head no as she wrapped her sweater tighter around her body. Her siblings had helped her with a spell to hide the bruises from her face and neck, but they hadn’t done anything about the ones on the rest of her body. And seeing Lacey in the state he was in now, she was afraid to show him what she’d been through because she was unsure of how he’d react. “N-No.” She finally stammered out after a few moments, her voice along with her entire body was shaking.

      No. The word rang out to him and only made him lash out once more. There was another crash, a shattering of something, but he was too angry to realise what he was doing anymore. When he finally came to seeing what the actions of his body was doing, Lacey found that he was grabbing his own things and stepping over glass shards that littered the floor.

      “God, I hate you.” He finally grit out. “I fucking hate you. Dawn. I’m sick of worrying about you. I’m sick of having to babysit you like you’re some child that needs to be protected. I do all of this for you and you don’t even have the fucking common courtesy to tell me you’re going back to your family? For all this I could just go home and see my own family and leave you out here since you think you can do everything yourself. You want to do thing son your own? Fine. You’re on your own.”

xxvalencia-plata:

“And there it is.” mused Valencia once she caught sight of Lacey’s anger. Looking up at him, the huntress rolled her eyes, completely unfazed despite knowing that at any given moment he could strike at her. “Yeah okay, says the one that’s literally towering over me.” she sarcastically replied. “Just walk it off or better yet, go back to Dawn. You know it really astounds me how a sweet girl like her, ended up being stuck with a man like you—but then again, it’s none of my fucking business yeah? Just fuck off and be on with your day then.” 

      “Say something about her again.” He demanded, wanting a reason to fight someone other than Dawn for the first time in months. “Say her name again and see what happens to you.” Lacey knew she was too sweet for him. Witch or not, she was too good and he knew it. The only person that didn’t seem to understand what was Dawn herself. “Fuck off, Plata. I don’t need to deal with you just because your Daddy and his Daddy made big names for themselves.”

[laceydenny]

aleksandriavann:

“Maybe I should have stuck to my instincts and not talk to you,I mean your kind took somebody from me and I will never forgive that”

      “I’d say I’m sorry for your loss, but my mother taught me to never lie.”

[laceydenny]

aureliavaltameri:

“Not particularly.” She kept it short with a simple shrug of her shoulders, not caring what the hunter thought of her. She’d been called childish plenty of times throughout the decades, but she wasn’t about to let him know that.

      “Great. Are we done here?”
