She followed him all the way back to his house, never looking directly into his eyes, but focused all her attention to the road ahead. This way she could track the directions in order to stalk his house with ease if she ever had to resort to such drastic measures. The paths were cloaked in a thick layer of darkness, though her ghostly hues could pick up light that ordinary humans could not. Or perhaps she was simply skilled at seeing at nighttime after spending years of being nocturnal. Either way, it didnât matter. The memory of their âinnocentâ walk had been burned into her skull, and now she had a method of ensuring his safety and protection at all times.Â
When they had finally reached his Manor, she stopped and glanced at all the ivy snaking its way up the concrete walls. âBrother, you have to get that fixed,â she remarked firmly. âYou donât want to be as dirty as I am sometimes.â All his other comments about the crimson color dye and such were discarded from her mind; she had to focus on his outward presentation and her own filthy toy rabbit.Â
They entered through the front door, and he set the doll in the sink, gently scrubbing it clean with care. âBe gentle,â the lolita reminded him simply, a pout dancing on her lips as she gazed blankly at the reddish fluid accompanying the water down the drain.Â
Vincent smirked weakly to himself as he washed the doll in the sink, his eyes gleaming slightly as he watched the dirt and blood swirl down the plug hole. Gentle? When am I not gentle? The blonde grinned weakly to himself, it was a sadistic and hollow smile.
Slowly, the man turned round, staring at the girl in the white lolita dress. For a moment he stood in silence, watching her like a vulture as he dangled the doll between them by it's arm. In a flash of ornate steel Vincent had drawn the pair of scissors from his belt, without word he moved the the open blade under the stitches of the stuffed animals chest, not quite cutting them yet.
"So tell me, why such an ugly and filthy toy? You don't need others, you hardly need friends, when you have a loving brother. I think people need to realize that a loving brother is the only thing anyone could ever need. Do you agree?" Vincent spoke mockingly and cold, his usual gentle tone twitching with a sense of hysteria.
