I was born in what you might call the dark ages. Not that they were for all, just for you humans. My kind favor the darkness, the night. We are of the night. The moon is for us what the sun is for your kind. We are the darkness. You see us and feel fear, just as you fear the dark. Whether that darkness is within or without makes no difference.
Then there is our appearance. We don’t exactly look like you, with our pale hides and pointed ears. Not to mention the fangs. They don’t show all the time, but has that ever made a difference to your kind? Of course not. The fact that they are there is all it takes. So you hunt us. Most of us are peaceful, but you don’t care. You never have. The few malicious ones are all it takes to make you fear us. And you hate what you fear. We can hide our fangs and our ears. And we can claim that we work the nights to explain our pallid complexions.
But our eyes. Those will always give us away, once you are close enough to see them. The colors are brilliant. So much so that they almost glow. And not the normal colors of you mortal creatures either. Mostly various shades of yellow, from amber to gold and even true yellow. Purples of every shade and tone. The part that bothers most of you is the fact that our pupils are vertical slits. I guess they remind you of reptiles or something.
So you hate us and fear us. That is why my birth was such an exception. I am of both human and non-human decent. Why my mother fell in love with the darkling that is my sire, I can not say. She didn’t survive long. Your kind murdered her because of it. Though you may have allowed her to live if I had not been born. So I was taken by my sire and raised in the darkness. He is one of the peaceful ones. But peaceful doesn’t mean naïve. Far from it. He knows that there are those that would hunt us all down simply because we are not human. So he taught me to fight. My half-blood breeding allows me to do things that others of my kind can not. I can walk in the light. And I could probably blend in with the social outcasts, the Gothic types, that exist on the fringes of your society. But I don’t. I have no reason to do so. And a very good reason not to.
I am a hunter. Not my own kind, unless ordered to do so. I hunt those who hunt us. Those who take money to slay those of my kind who cannot defend themselves. For there are those among my kind who are helpless, whether by birth or accident. So I hunt the hunters, to protect my kind from the extinction that would follow if individuals like myself do not hunt.
There is no thanks for doing what I do. Nor is thanks needed. None of us advertises the fact that we hunt. We are shunned as anachronisms when others discover what we are. And we are seen as a danger to our own kind. Hunting the hunters has a tendency to draw more hunters to us. Most often, they are after revenge. Some few come after us in a misguided, and suicidal, attempt to make a name for themselves. As if being famous to humans would make them better at what they do. As if it would protect them from our attacks. It won’t do either. It only spawns anger in our own hunters, that those fools would believe they could harm us. They can if there are enough of them, but the fools almost never work in large groups.
The ones who hunted us have been dead for over 10,000 years. We are still alive. I am still alive. And now those who once hated and feared us for no reason other than our differences have reason to hate and fear. For now we hunt them. For nourishment and sometimes for sport, though it is poor sport. But the hunters are returning. Some are like myself. Half-breeds. But rather than hunt those that hunt my kind as I once did, they hunt us. And they are good at it, though there are few of them. For most are raised as I was, by their non-human parent. But for those of us who have lived for so long, the hunters are not much of a threat.

The Reason Why « Result #1 on Dec 30, 2009, 7:40pm »
A/N:: This is going to be a fairly short story I think. It might last longer but who knows. If it is long enough it can be a story by itself but if not I will add another story at the bottom lol. I think this story will explain just how useful Damon is xD I know he may not be the best fighter or cooker or anything else stereotypical male probably should but it will show why Innocence is so inclined to stick by him so you know it will be cute lol. It does have some drama and not as much humor as normal but it still is a nice story. With that said you might actually be able to drink and eat but I am not sure what makes your funny bone tingle so you might as well be safer then sorry but it really is up to you. Now with all the said, ENJOY AND READ THE DAMN STORY!
~~~
The sun had been up for quite awhile. Jezebelle had been waiting for nighttime for a long while… Or at least it felt that way. She had sent Innocence a letter early this morning and figured she would have gotten it but the sun was keeping her from actually coming… She had finally met someone she felt would help her merge back into the lives of the gypsy and give her little son someone to call father… She wanted to brag, she knew Innocence had told her all her stories and she finally had something to tell her. She knew the girl would listen she just needed her to come. She watched as Marko and his friends moved the drums and other instruments so they would start practicing. She held her son to her stomach and watched. She knew the rumors about Marko and she had seen a side no one had told her about.
She knew about the rumor mills that ran in this town and all towns for that matter. She would test the waters… Seriously what could he do that Dante had not done? Get her pregnant, then get her friends or cousins pregnant and then run off? As far as she could tell Dante had done all that was possible to screw her life up… Marko… He was a flirt but no one actually said he went to roll in the hay so she felt pretty safe at about that. He seemed to enjoy Brishen’s company as well. She had seen him flirting with one of her cousin’s but as far as she cared he was just trying to make her jealous. She had always thought it was a trait woman used to make sure their man still loved them but… To see a man use it on his woman was a little strange but she held that remark.
Jezebelle watched them until the sun had gone down. She then watched them take a break to light torches so they could see. Looking up she saw a large moon and smiled. It was a perfect summer night. She then heard a familiar whinny and stood up. Brishen who had been asleep woke up and looked around. He then noticed his mother’s friend on a large red horse. He looked for Damian and did not see him. Jezebelle bouncing over to her friend and grabbed her leg while she was still on the horse. Innocence gave her friend an amused look. Hopping down she hit Red Hare on the hip which caused him to turn around. He knew what he had to do, roam around for a little while and then return for Innocence. He knew she would call for him if she needed him sooner. With that he trotted off.
Jezebelle with Innocence in hand dragged her to where she was sitting. Innocence kept the amused look on her face. “I saw your letter, what do you want to brag about?” Brishen then started to cry for his grandmother suddenly which caused Jezebelle to pout. “Hold on…” Innocence nodded and watched her enter the hut Jalilah had used for her house for a few months. She waited for her friend but she suddenly felt someone from behind pick her up and spin her around. Being placed on the ground she looked up in surprise. She saw someone who was really tall looking down at her. He then grabbed her hand.
He started to kiss it from her knuckle up to her shoulder and then bowed. “Hello goddess, I am Marko. What a pleasure to have you, an honor really. What have your fellow gods named you?” Innocence just froze up. Marko taking it as being shy just wrapped his arm around her and started to bring her towards the group he had been practicing. “Hey guys look at the pretty little angel I found, Dumnezeu must be missing an angel tonight eh?” Innocence wanted to duck from his arm but found it locked around her shoulder. Looking over to the hut she hoped to see Jezebelle come but she saw no sign of her friend. Marko noticing her looking away took it as being shy again. “And she is a shy, why not give her a nice little song guys?”
The group shrugged and began making a beat. Marko pointed to Jaquel who began to sing. Marko helped him out but focused on dancing with Innocence who wanted no part and was not happy with the lyrics. Marko figured she was just shy about the whole thing so he tried harder. This just made Innocence draw in more. She had no idea who this guy was but as far as she knew, all other gypsy men knew her to be friends with Jezebelle and never was this touchy feely… In fact they almost avoided her. They were nice but shy around her, she was like them but she was not by birthright or marriage a gypsy. Therefore she was off limits. Where the f**k was that shyness now?!
“ The way that booty movin’ I can't take no more Have to stop what I’m doin’ so I can pull up close I'm tryna find the words to describe this girl without being disrespectful Damn girl Damn you'se a sexy bitch A sexy bitch Damn you'se a sexy bitch Damn girl- ”
Just as they went to continue singing Jezebelle finally broke free of her mother’s rant in time to see Innocence being plagued by her boyfriend. Slapping her hand to her forehead she walked over and started to curse him out in Romanian which caused the music to come to a halt. Innocence just hid behind her friend and felt her eyes burning with tears. Now she normally was able to handle this type of attention, she did work at a bar… But the lyrics… They reminded her of something her aunt would say with sarcasm, and the fact he was so tall and all over her reminded her of him… Just as Jezebelle went to turn and apologize Innocence released her shoulders and sprinted away.
Jezebelle went to call out for her but just sighed. She then glared at Marko. “Idiot! That was my friend you just scared off…” Marko just pursed his lips, “I was just complementing her… She is quite pretty. You have nice looking friends…” Jezebelle snarled slightly which caused him to put his hands up in defense. “Alright I apologize… Get her back here and I will say I am sorry…” Jezebelle sighed, “Oh you bet your ass you will… Tomorrow… She needs to sort some things out.” Marko gave her a strange look and she just sighed before going to get her son. “I cannot tell you… You as far as I can tell are not worthy of such information…” Marko gave a look of mock horror but Jezebelle was in no mood and left him pouting outside.
Innocence who had broke into a run simply ignored the fact she ran past Red Hare who looked confused at her run. Trotting beside her he just followed at her pace with a look of worry on his face. Reaching Lee he stopped following her at the stairs. He then started towards the stables which caused the stable hand to be mildly surprised. He was used to the horse coming in alone but… He had thought that this horse was by request support to be gone for most of the night… With a sigh he locked the stall and continued to tend to the other horses. Innocence was so caught up she ran right past Rhys and Damian. Rhys rose a brow and then looked at Damian.
Rhys sighed and pointed down the hall that Innocence had run past. “Uh… go fine your mother.” Damian saluted Rhys before running down the hallways with his arms out like a bird. “YES UNCLE RHYS!” He belted out as he ran. Rhys watched amused before shaking his head. While Innocence running around was no all to strange the Molotov Cocktail of emotions that had just rushed by was not a good sign. Sighing he went up to his brother’s study and knocked on the frame of the opened door. Damon lifted his head and gave his brother a confused look, “Yes?” Rhys rolled his eyes, “Your little woman is having a fit. You should probably calm her down…”
Damon gave him a strange look but stood up. “Where is she?” Rhys sighed, “In your bedroom… Hurry up I am getting a headache…” He had no disrespect for the little troublemaker but when she got like this while he had almost no sleep due to stress he got rather testy and spoke harshly. He really hoped she would be ok for herself but right now he hoped she would calm down so he could get rid of the boulder of pressure sitting on his head. Walking back to where he had been standing with Damian he leaned against the wall. He had no where else to go and walking any closer would cause more pain… He would stay here until the coast was clear…
Meanwhile with Innocence she had run all the way from her fiend’s house, past her son and Rhys, and ended up running right into Damon’s room blindly. She had ended up breaking down when she sat on the bed. She figured no one would notice and she could have her little break down in peace but Damian who wanted to surprise her noticed she was crying and frowned. “Mommy?” Innocence jumping looked and saw her son hiding behind the opened door. Innocence rubbed her eyes and smiled, “Yes?” Damian entered the room and moused over. “Are you ok mommy?” Innocence just smiled. “Yes… Sorry I uh…. Trip and fell…”
She figured it would not work seeing she was running just fine but… Damian pouted and went over to her. He gave her a hug and nuzzled his face in her side. “I hate when I fall, it hurts… Will you be ok mommy?” Innocence just bit back some new tears and nodded while rubbing Damian’s back. She was in the middle of a few really unpleasant and realistic flashbacks. She had no need to cause Damian trauma so she bit it back. Damon who had seen most of the show continued to watch from his leaning position. “Damian… Go find Uncle Rhys…” Damian looking up noticed Damon. He figured he could make mommy smile and saluted his father before making like a bird and ‘flying’ down the hall back to Rhys.
Damon then closed the door. He stood in front of her with a frown, “Now what really is the problem? You seemed to be running just fine when you whizzed past Rhys and Damian…” Innocence pouted, she knew Damon would not believe the idea but she figured she would more time to make a story up… Damon waited a moment and saw her press her face into her knees which she brought up to her chest. She refused to look at him and just tried to hide hoping he would go away. She had no desire to talk about what happened. Damon however just got on his knees and forced her knees down. “What… Happened…” He put a demanding urgency in his voice and held onto her arms.
For a moment Innocence was tempted to tell him but she was not able to form the words and she figured the fear of something in the past was so… Stupid and childish. She was twenty-two not fifteen… Damon waited and she finally looked at him. Her eyes were slightly puffy and very red. He waited for her to explain what happened but she just slid off the bed and lightly tackled him. She buried her face in his shoulder and Damon looked down at her. After another moment he knew he was not going to be getting an answer… Sighing he waited a moment before sitting up and turning so he could rest his back on the bed frame. He let Innocence sit in his lap like a child and just let her cry on his jacket.
He sighed again, he had no idea what to do… He figured something had to have happened. As far as he could tell she was not bleeding, nothing was broken, and she was not sick… So that meant whatever it was must be mental. He had no idea how to deal with that, he hardly knew how to deal with physical but with a tight embrace around Innocence he settled on letting her cry on his shoulder until she fell asleep. Damian being sent by Rhys peeked into the room and saw his mother was sleep. Silently walking into the room he leaned against Damon’s other shoulder and pouted. “Is mommy going to be ok? I do not think she tripped and fell…” Damon just smiled before using a hand to ruffle his hair.
“She will be fine. Where did Uncle Rhys go?” Damian smiled, “Oh after a moment of talking with him he explained the pent up emotion mommy was feeling was making him ill so he went to take a nap in the farthest room. Now that mommy is asleep he should be ok thought.” Damon nodded at the long explanation. He then got a knock from a maid she was holding a letter. “Another letter for the little missus…” Damon took the letter and held onto it thanking before dismissing the maid who went to continue her duties. Damon was tempted to read the letter in hopes to find something but just tucked the letter into Innocence’s dress front.
He then stood up and laid her on the bed, he still had a lot of work to do but… Sighing he saw Damian’s worried frown and he picked up the boy. Placing him beside Innocence. He then took his now damp jacket off and removed his shoes. With another sigh he went to the door and closed it again. Making his way back he ended up laying down next to the two darkling. Damian who was hyper took a moment to fall into a lull but Damon who had not slept all yesterday and the day before fell into a rather quick sleep. He was still worried but had an idea… He just needed to make sure he could make it work…
Later that next night Innocence finally woke up. Her eyes returning to their normal glory and her nose was no longer stuffy from crying. Sitting up she went to get something to drink but noticed something was stick out of her dress front. She looked at Damon who was sleeping like a log and then looked at Damian who was following suit. She then took the letter and read it. It was Jezebelle again, this time she was apologizing and saying that Marko was who she had been ready to brag about. She then told her to come back tonight to get the proper apology from her stupid boyfriend. Sighing she folded the letter up and put it on the table not really awake yet.
She knew it was nighttime but… She did not really want to go near that man again… She felt badly for Jezebelle, while she had not been raped it might have well been… She had all of her respect stripped from her, and she was stuck with a son she loved but got her looks for she was obviously an unmarried single mother. She should feel happy but she felt somewhere in her heart Jezebelle deserved better then some womanizer… She knew Jezebelle was no fool and must have some reason… With a change of heart she left the room. She would be giving Jezebelle a visit and be giving Marko a second chance. To have won her dear friend’s heart he must have something that would change her mind…
Damon noticed her leaving and frowned. He then noticed the opened letter. He waited a moment before reading it. His eyes narrowed. He had no idea what happened but it was obvious this Marko guy was the cause of it… Grabbing Damian in one hand and his shoes in another he ran down to where Rhys was sleeping and dumped the sleeping child with his brother. He then put on his shoes and went to follow Innocence hoping to see exactly what had happened to cause such a scary reaction. The only time he saw her cry that hard was when she had explained what had happened… Which led him to believe the worst but for her to go back made him hope differently.
Plus if she told him once, even if it was Jezebelle’s new guy friend she would most likely tell him again. It had to be something else… Following behind her he knew where the camp was and ran after the speedy Red Hare. He was not as fast as a horse but he figured it was faster then trying his brother’s horse or Innocence’s other crazy mare. Innocence finally reached the camp but this time did not leave Red Hare. Jezebelle hearing the hooves left the hut and bowed before her friend. “I am soooooo sorry Kitten… I know you have been through a lot and my idiot of a man has brought up things you rather forget… I hope you can forgive me and not hate him…”
Innocence looked down at her friend before pouting. “You said he would apologize… I did not come here for you to apologize and grovel… You are my dear friend… I do not care what he did you are my friend…” Jezebelle stopped bowing and gave a look of relief. She then yelled for Marko who appeared. Damon at this point had caught up and was hiding in some shrubs. Marko seeing Innocence bowed, “I am sorry… I am not sure what I did to upset you, but I did and for that I am very very very sorry.” Innocence looked at him before sighing. “Alright… Sorry I think I might have over reacted…”
Stepping down from Red Hare she went to continue but Marko just wrapped his arm around her shoulder again and grinned. “No harm done then. Good. I hope to be good fri-” He had noticed the look Jezebelle was giving and then noticed Innocence was tensed up again. He then felt something hit him in the back. Spinning he was surprised to see someone behind him. Damon glared at Marko and he just grinned, that was until Damon punched his chest, or attempted to anyways. Innocence flinched as she heard Marko take his free hand and wind it back hitting Damon in the temple knocking him on his ass. He had a frown on his face, “Hey, what the hell is wrong with you!” That was when Jezebelle screamed, “MARKO!” Innocence broke free from his arm and went over to Damon.
Marko looked confused, “What? He was punching me!” Jezebelle held her head. “That is because HE is her boyfriend… Idiot!!! I said to apologize not sock her boyfriend in the head! Apologize! Get on your knees!” She started to panic, Innocence just ignored everything until Marko came over. She then stood up and in a flash winded her foot before sending a round house kicked him into his temple. “What the f**k is wrong with you!?!?!” She had a look of pure hate in her eyes but after a moment she went back to the ground. Marko went to get up and go over again but this time Red Hare blocked the way. He did not exactly like Damon but seeing Innocence so upset pissed him off. Marko getting the hint backed off and went into the hut. Jezebelle just sighed.
Innocence knowing Marko was gone took Damon’s hand off his now bruising forehead. He looked upset and slightly depressed. “Ugh… Sorry…” Innocence gave him a confused look as she moved so he could rest his head in her lap while she checked on his head. “What do you mean sorry? He should be sorry…” Damon sighed, “No I mean I am useless… My brother is right.” Innocence looked down at him surprised at the confession before gently flicking his wound. He winced and looked at her confused. She just glared at him. “If I wanted some meat heat to protect me I would have went for one of your guards… If I wanted protection I would have gone after Walter or hell tried to steal Rhys from Sarah. I do not need to be protected like that…”
He gave her a confused look and wanted to argue but she just rolled her eyes and covered his mouth. “Listen… Remember when I told you about what happened? Any man can get rage and go to find the bastard, then go teach him a thing or two… Not every man actually takes the time to make sure the victim is safe to be left alone… If both you and Rhys left I would have probably done something stupid… Not to mention if you went with Rhys I would have never actually jumped your pretty little ass…” She blushed lightly at the last part and Damon just looked at her. Confused but interesting in what was being said.
Innocence figuring she would get silence released her hand from his mouth and started to wrap some bandage Jezebelle had gotten for her a moment again around his head. “In short I would rather have someone to stand besides me, and comfort the wounds I get not in front of me taking the blows for me... Anyways if you were protecting me I would probably just get in the way cause I would want to protect you and then we would be stuck in a cycle of protection which would cause problems.” Jezebelle pursed her lips, “Aww that is so sweet…” Damon who was now resting against Innocence’s chest blushed. He had not exactly thought of it that way…
Jezebelle then bent forward. “Sir Dog… Puppy… I apologize… Kitten I apologize to you too… I know you both probably hate him but please-” Innocence sighed, “Jezebelle, you are an honest woman, a dear friend, if you see something in him worth keeping I can forgive him. Damon… I am not sure about.” Damon who had gotten over his blush sighed, “Yeah whatever…” Jezebelle hugged the both of them at once before rushing into the hut. She then dragged Marko out who flinched when Innocence held out her hand. “I am sorry for hitting you but if you attack him again I will not be kicking the head on your shoulders…”
Marko paused before grinned, “Such words for such a pretty girl. I will believe that threat and agree not to touch him again or you. I apologize I first thought you were just some lost woman, I had no clue you were Belle’s friend nor that you were not single… I once again apologize.” Innocence shook his hand and Marko and Jezebelle went inside again. Red Hare looked at Damon and Innocence before snorting. Getting down Innocence was able to put Damon on his back before hopping on it as well. Damon grabbed her waist and rested his chin on her shoulder. Red Hare then took down the road back home at a nice calm pace for once.
Reaching home, Red Hare went down on the ground allowing Innocence to get off his back easily before helping Damon. Red Hare taking the hint went back to the stables. Innocence then helped Damon into the house. Damon wanted to tell her he needed to get back to work but she shushed him when he went to talk and just dragged him to his room. She then pulled back the blankets and forced him to lay down. Covering him up she sat on the edge of the bed. Curling her legs under her she rested her head on his chest. “I got to watch you for twenty-four hours so you do not go into a coma. I love you far to much for that to happen.”
Damon blushed before she sat up and kissed his nose. Before she could return to her resting position he captured her lips and she just grinned. Damian who had seen the two return saw Damon’s head and began to panic, “AH! What happened to daddy!?” Innocence just opened her arms as she sat on the edge of the bed and Damian ran into them. Picking him up she placed him at Damon’s other side and Damian curled up beside his father. Innocence then patted his head, “He just… Had a little accident.” Damon grinned, “Yes I tripped and fell.” Innocence rolling her eyes looked at her son to see if he believed it and from the calmed look on his face he looked like he believed it.
He then before trying to take a nap next to Damon looked at both his parents. “Mommy and daddy trip and fall a lot…” Innocence just giggled, “Oh honey I have been falling since I fell for your father.” Damian looked at his mother and then saw Damon’s cheesy grin paired with a blush. “Ah mommy made daddy blush!” Damon grabbed Damian and pushed his little face into his chest so he would not be teased. Innocence hit Damon’s shoulder playful and Damian who was released came up for a breath. He then laughed and poked Damon’s cheek before being tickled by Damon.
Innocence just watched amused. It was true… If she had some meat head, he would probably end up crushing Damian not tickling him. She really had no need for such a protection and like the time with her aunt… No matter if he remembered or not, he did have a hidden beast in him that came out when needed. After Damon stopped tickling Damian, she crawled so she was laying next to Damon and Damian laid on his chest. Damon wrapped an arm around both of them and started to fall asleep.
Rhys who had been resting on the sofa smirked, well at least the emotions were relaxed at this point. Among the fact his brother apparently had some use after all… Closing his eyes again he figured he still should try teaching his brother a thing or two… At least for back up, you could never be to safe. He knew Innocence knew at least something but his brother needed to toughen up. With that determination in mind he fell into a peaceful sleep at the lack of raging emotions and loud noises…

A/N:: How is that for mushy? I told you had had drama but it makes up with fluff, mush, and amusing romance where the crazy insane randomness humor lacks. I think it is a decent trade but correct me if I am wrong. I find this story so cute… I wanted to wait to type this but it was eating at the corners of my brain so I typed it now. It is almost noon time and still no sleep… I am going to be dead later… Oh well at least I got tons of stories written lol. Alright this is a small little story about Jezebelle and her nicknames she gives everyone. Nothing really to worry about I think but just in case follow the no drinking rule. Alright besides that I do not really have any warnings. So without further ado READ!
~~~
Jezebelle was bored to death. It was just after lunch and everyone she knew besides Sarah who was living the darkling night cycle HAD to live the darkling night cycle. Satisfaction was another human but she too was living in the night… She never really cared for the sun and enjoyed the night but training for things was easier for her and many other of the new dancers. She however was done training and was bored stiff. She then thought of something. Grabbing a quill, ink, and paper she wrote down Innocence = Kitten. She then thought for a moment. Her dear friend had a nickname but… She wanted to nickname her friends and family for they were to her, friends and family as well. Waiting a moment she began to write a list.
After a moment she looked at it and crossed some words out and changed them. Looking at the list she grabbed another piece of paper and re-wrote it so it looked neat. She then noticed that another name would fit better with someone else and she ended up reorganizing again. By dusk she had the list totally complete… Yes and she was proud. She had a nickname for everyone she knew and everyone her dearest friend knew… And the names fit perfectly… Looking at the list one last time she tossed the mistake ridden lists and nailed the perfect to her bedroom wall. The list read like this…
“ INNOCENCE - kitten = cause she is my curious friend ENIGMA - dove (dovie) = cause she is the toy to kitten and is white haired WALTER - stallion = cause he runs like a stallion at the site of woman WHISPER - deer = cause she seems fragile like a deer DAMIAN - cub = cause he is the son of my little kitten MERCY - pup = cause he is the cousin like boy of kitten SATISFACTION - bunny = cause she is fragile and cute like a bunny JEZEBELLE - tinkerbelle = cause it was kitten’s idea JALILAH - dya = cause she wants to be called mom BRISHE - kid = cause he eats everything in the house SARAH - angel = cause she simply is one RHYS - wolf (wolfie) = cause it is obvious that kitten is right about him being a wolf DAMON - dog (puppy) = cause he is wolfie’s little brother and therefore a little puppy. ROBERT - lion = cause he has the heart of a lion MARY - owlet = cause she is wise and beautiful like the owl VIVI - snake = cause… she is a minge… ”
Happy with her list he went into her room to take a little nap so she could be ready for the trouble she knew the great members of Lee and Tiamorre would cause deep into tonight. Even as a day walker she would not want to miss the fun and laugher of the adventures of her dearest friends. Now she was armed with nicknames she could try. Letting her eyes close she allowed a small grin to form on her lips. Tonight was going to be fun no matter what happened, it always was fun…

A cute little explanation and it makes a nice little relaxed mini story. Hope you liked it lol.

A/N:: Whoot alright so I got another story… I have two ideas and I think I can make a decent story if I put them both together. I have a bunch of ideas… But this one is processing easier then my other idea and the other idea has music and lyrics so I might not do it. Doing lyrics drives me crazy, cause I see the dance in my head but can never do it justice and some songs do not fit lyric wise and that one line might screw up the song so lol I will just focus on what is coming without problems but do not be surprised if you see a new song story. Well this is going to be fluff and humor with a hint of romance so put on your seatbelts. I know I have been focusing on Damon, Damian, and Innocence and not really including anyone else so I will make sure to try and add some more people this time around. Seeing it is fun to have helpers… Muahahahaha… Alright so everyone knows the drill right? Do not drink or eat while reading this cause it will cause you big problems and we all know that Fat Tony does not do problems carve peaches? Yeah that’s right… Anyways This story has some smut in it later on and it is to large to really point out so you can try to brave it until you cannot take it or not read it and ask me or someone who read it already what happened over a chat system or something.
Anyways… ONWARD!

A cool chill had long ago settled into the towns. It was late fall and it was beginning to show signs of winter coming around again. While the trees were bare the ground had yet to see anything besides fallen leaves and a few mild passing showers. No snow had arrived yet to the disappointment of a select few and the glee of many more. Damon was busy once again with work. It seemed whenever he actually wanted to relax he would have a shit load of crap jump into his lap and push him back into his chair. He might as well be tied to the damn chair… Grabbing a fist full of his hair he yanked lightly in frustration. He had re-read this line sixteen times already… He was going crazy…
Elsewhere in the castle of Lee, Rhys had decided it was time for his brother to leave his damn office. Sure he knew duty was important and all the jazz but if even if he did not know it, it was the idiot’s birthday and even he did not wish the boring mundane work on his brother on his birthday. He knew exactly what he had to do too… Forming a fist he knocked on the door of the library. Innocence who had been reading a book with Damian resting in her lap jolted in surprise at the knock but carefully removed Damian and went to the door. She gave a look of surprise when she saw it was Rhys. “Yes?” Rhys combed a hand through his hair before walking through the door.
Innocence closed the door and put her hands on her hips, still confused to the sudden visit. “Well?” Rhys was silent for a moment longer before sighing and crossing his arms over his chest. “I know I always say never to both Damon while he is working but I need your help with something…” Innocence tilted her head in curiosity. “Oh really? What do you need help with?” Rhys grumbled softly before uncrossing his arms. “Well as you know he has been locked in the damn room for the past week and-” Just as he feared he saw her curiosity turn into amusement. “Wait, wait a second let me get this straight you want me to help you help him?”
Rhys gave her a blank look. “Yes…” This was the double edge sword, he had no time or will to take his brother outside to remind him what nature looked like… He however knew she had no problem doing so, the only problem was asking her so she would not go around teasing him for some brotherly love shit. True he loved his brother but… There was a limit to how much he was willing to show. This woman made it hard to show that much… Heaving a sigh he took her by her elbow and forced her to sit down.
Innocence sat down without struggling and crossed her legs. She rested her head in her hands and looked up at him through her bangs with a devilish smirk. “Alright continue.” Rhys leaned against the wall and crossed his arms again. “Alright here is the deal, he has been in the damn room for to long dealing with noble shit and normally I would not complain but today is technically special… I may want to keep him on track as the head but I do not want to drive him insane and I am not heartless.” Innocence leaned back in the chair and looked at him.
“Well I am fine with the idea… What do you want me to do and uh… This may seem like a stupid question but what is the special day?” Rhys looked at her with mild surprise before smirking, “Are you telling me you do not even know when his birthday is?” Innocence felt her mouth fall open as she placed a hand to her head. “Oh my gosh… You must be kidding!” Rhys shook his head the grin staying on his lips. “No, he was born in late fall and last time I checked it was late fall.” Innocence closed her lips and leaned forward.
She looked like she was deep in thought for a moment before she looked up, “Alright I will obviously do this but am I planning this myself or did you have something set up?” Rhys chuckled softly before pushing off from the wall. “The sun will be setting in the next fifteen minutes, I already have some stuff set up thanks to Sarah and your little gypsy friend. I wrote it all down, make sure you follow it fairly close so you two do not get lost or burned to a crisp.” That is not something he wanted to happen. Innocence took the letter that was held on in front of her and opened it. Taking a moment she looked at the list.
After a moment she looked up at him with a grin, “Alright I can totally do this.” Rhys gave her a grin and took her hand forcing her to stand. “I thought you would say that. Your friend is here, she plans on helping you. She already has a outfit selected for you and is waiting in the bathroom to help you get ready. Hurry up and get in the water before it is cold. Innocence went to pick Damian up but Rhys beat her to the punch and then pressed on the middle of her back. “[b]Hey I said to get, I will deal with the demon spawn.” Innocence glare at him softly before rolling her eyes and running out of the library to meet her friend.
Rhys looked at Damian who looked up at him. Rhys just grinned, “Want to cause some trouble?” Damian giggled and clapped his hands which was yes enough for Rhys. Leaving the library he made his way to his brother’s work room. Not bothering to knock he simply kicked the door down which got him a glare from his brother who had his mouth open in shock at the sudden action. He then stood and pointed to the door, “What the hell are you doing?!” Rhys did not answer him until he had a hand on his collar and was dragging him out of the room.
“Well that is easy, breaking you out of here.” Damon tried to fight to get free but was simply thrown over his brother’s shoulder like a jacket. Taking a huffing breath he crossed his arms and glared at the help that was looking at him with amusement. Glaring he grumbled, “Laugh and you are all fired…” It was not until Rhys turned the corner that the staff that saw him broke out laughing. Rhys then kicked down the door to the bathroom. Damian giggled at the sound of Rhys chuckle at kicking down the doors. While he knew he would get in trouble for it later it was fun as hell to kick down shit for no reason. Great stress release.
Damon struggled again against the hold he was in and started to flail slightly, “Will you stop that!?” Rhys paused for a moment before shrugging. “Nope.” Damon stopped fighting and slumped, “No… Of course not… Why maybe you should kick the stable doors down and kick the stable hand too while you are at it…” Rhys who had gotten to the tub tossed his brother into the empty bathtub. “If you do not shut up I will kick you.” Damon glared up at his brother as he noticed where he was. “Wait a second what the he-” Before he could finish Rhys turned the water on which made him try to get out of the tub before his clothes got wet.
Rhys took advantage of that panic and put Damian in his hands. That caused him to freeze for a moment. Rhys left the bathroom for a moment and grabbed something for Damian to be placed in. Taking the child from his arms he put him in the basket like crate and then began to tear the clothing off his brother. Taking the dirty clothes he opened the window to the bathroom and tossed them out. Damon who was now sitting in the tub with his arms crossed glared at his brother. “You know… I am feeling a very morbid sense of déjà vu here…” Rhys just gave him a grin. “Good, then you will know what will happen if you do not wash behind your ears.”
Damon just gave him a look of horror which caused Rhys to grin. “Good.” Grabbing Damian he left the bathroom so he could stand in the hall. Meanwhile with Innocence it was less of a fight. When she reached the bathroom Jezebelle greeted her before telling her to get undress and step into the water which Innocence did with no problem. After about fifteen minutes she was prompted to leave the water and was wrapped in a towel. She was then assaulted by a white power like substance, and something that Jezebelle put on her lips. She then had her cheeks pinched and was then pushed out of the bathroom where she was lead by Sarah into a guest bedroom.
She wondered if Rhys had this planned all along and instead of actually wanting to get him outside was planning something… This was falling together to well to just be a spur of the moment thing… Reaching the guest bedroom she had the towel taken away and a clean set of bandages wrapped around her hips and chest. She then had a dress fitted over her head and her hair combed. She glared at the wall. She was all for looking nice but this was like when Enigma got bored when they were younger and used her for a doll… After a moment she felt Sarah tug her hair and she then saw Sarah leaning over her shoulder. “Alright all done. You look so pretty.”
Innocence stood up and looked down. From what she could see she was wearing a deep scarlet dress with black lace and ties. She reached back and felt a ribbon tying her hair in a hairstyle she had never worn before. Sarah looked pleased at her work and then grabbed Innocence by her hand and lead her out to the hallway. Jezebelle was leaning against the wall and saw Innocence, she then looked at Sarah. “Oh my god! Angel you are genius!” Sarah just gave a playful dramatic bow. Innocence sighed, she loved dressing up but this was a bit extreme. Normally she knew what she was wearing. Right now all she could tell was the dress. She still wondered what was on her face. She had the urge to rub it off but knew it would upset Jezebelle if she tried.
Just as she was about to ask Jezebelle about Rhys she saw the man in question walking down the hallway. Damian asleep in his arms. She noticed Rhys was soaking wet but did not get a chance to ask when she was grabbed by the elbow. She looked up at him with a slight glare. He noticed the look and just gave her a devilish grin that made her almost trip in surprise. She had never seen him grin like that… It was spooky almost. Just as she went to ask him what the hell was up she was pushed into the room and the door was slammed shut. She heard Rhys yell out before sprinting away, “I will babysit the demon just have fun.” She went to open the door and chase him but she then felt someone staring at her.
Releasing the door knob she almost fell over. Now she was used to seeing Damon dressed up seeing he almost always wore a suit but… The outfit he was wearing was one of the most fancy she had ever seen. She gave him a look which turned into a blank look. He was giving her a similar look but it did not turn into a blank look it turned into a badly hidden leer. While Innocence could not see what she was wearing Damon had a perfect view. It was a nice flowing dress as the skirt but the top was tight fitting with ties that kept it tight. It hugged her waist, part of her hips, and her chest. While the front view had surprised him the back view when she went to chase after his brother had been what got him to leer.
Not to mention her hair was put in a cute little hairstyle held by a matching ribbon of scarlet with black interlaced in the design. What really surprised him was her face looked paler then normal yet her cheeks were reddened and her lips had a dark red on it. Innocence however took the staring the wrong way. “Alright… What did she write on my forehead?” Damon took a moment to snap out of his slight trance, “Huh?” Innocence walked over to him and crossed her arms. “I know Jezebelle wrote something on my face after she gave me a bath…” Damon just grinned, “No… That is not it.”
Innocence looked at him before pouting, “Then why are you staring…?” Damon held his mouth open for a moment, not exactly sure how to explain it. Innocence just waited, she did not believe that Jezebelle had not pull a prank on her. Hell it would make sense… Everyone was acting strange and for all she knew Damon could have been born in the summertime… Damon placed a hand over his mouth and leaned on his elbow. “… Well you look stunning is all…” Innocence looked at him before freezing. “Oh now I know you are lying… Damon looked up at her with amusement, “Oh really? What is so hard to believe?” Innocence paused for a moment before pouting.
Damon just removed his hand and his hidden grin was revealed. He then held out his hand to Innocence who glared at it softly before taking it. She figured he wanted to stand but was then pulled into his lap. She gave a small squeal of surprise and Damon just wrapped his arm around her waist. “Well my brother told me you had something to show me… I have no idea what he is trying to do, do you know what is going on?” Innocence looked at him for a moment and then sighed, “I was told it was your birthday and that you have been working really hard and deserve a break.” She expected him to laugh at her and explain his birthday was not even in fall but he took his free hand and slapped his forehead.
“Holy… I forgot… I have not had a birthday since I was like… Five. I remember getting a gift from Rhys every year but I never actually got a party…” Innocence gave him a look of surprise, “You actually forgot your birthday?” Damon gave a sheepish grin, “Well… I never really had a birthday worth remembering so it… Slipped my mind I suppose...” He looked at Innocence who was giving him a blank look. “What? I seriously never had a birthday party worth-” Innocence rolling her eyes pulled at his collar and planted a small kiss on his lips. He gave her a look of mild surprise and then grinned at the smirk she gave him. “Well stop complaining and let us go make a birthday worth remembering.”
Damon felt his grin grow and went to kiss her again but she placed a finger on his lips. “Oh come now, I know what you want, but I have more planned, so keep your pants on and lets go outside. We are already running late.” Damon gave her a confused look but she got up from his lap and took both of his hands. Pulling him up so he was standing she released one of his hands and started towards the door. Damon fought the urge to comment on her ass and just followed enjoying the view. Innocence had remembered the list clearly. The first thing on the list had been to go outside, it did not really explain what was suppose to happen but she trusted if Rhys had it planned out this far he would not fall through. Reaching outside she was surprised to see a carriage waiting for them. Red Hare and Az both hooked up and ready to go.
Damon gave a look of amusement at seeing the two familiar horses. He then felt himself being lead to the carriage. He saw Innocence lean to check to see who the driver was and she let out a cheer of surprise. Damon went to look but he heard the familiar voices and rolled his eyes. “Sister… I hope you enjoy yourself… There happy Walter I said it…” A chuckle could be heard and then a belly laugh. He then heard Rob speak, “Well wish the man a happy birthday.” Enigma leaning over Walter sent Damon a surprised look at his outfit before pulling a blank look. “Happy birthday…” Damon just widened his eyes and in a sarcastic way nodded his head slowly. Enigma glared at him before sitting between Rob and Walter again. Innocence grinning went back over to Damon and with his help sat down.
After a moment the sound of reins being shaken could be heard along with Red Hare’s wild cry of excitement. The carriage then started to move. Innocence just sat with a large grin on her face, she normally just rode bare back until her ass was sore. This was not the first time she was even in a carriage but it was sure as hell the first time she was dressed up while riding in one. Damon noticing the large grin felt one of his own appear on his lips. After a moment Innocence remembered the next thing on the list. They were going to a fancy little place for a dinner… Which in her mind made no sense seeing Damon could not eat but… She figured fancy meant wine so he would be able to have something at least…
After going about halfway there Innocence began to grow bored. She never was really the princess type, while she enjoyed it for a short while she had other things on the list that needed to happen… She looked over to talk to Damon but his grin had left like hers had and he looked just as bored. She waited a moment before rolling her eyes. Shifting so she had one leg stretched out straight with her foot on the floor of the carriage, it was keeping her other leg which was bent at the knee from slipping as she wrapped an arm around Damon’s neck and began to nibble on his ear. If she was going to be stuck in here with him she might as well have some fun.
Damon saw her changing position but he figured it was cause she was not used to sitting long times in a bumpy moving ride. That was until he felt her teeth on his ear. He went to turn to look at her in surprise but she used her free hand to grab his chin and keep his face still. After a few minutes she had gotten his tie off and had gotten that strange lip substance all over his ear, lips, and left cheek. He however did not notice nor did he care. He was much to busy moving her so she was straddling his waist so he could start on the ties on the back of her dress. They were so busy that they did not notice the carriage come to a stop.
Walter and Enigma both took a horse and began to unbuckle them from the carriage so they could have a little cool down walk before getting some water and food. Robert took it upon himself to tell the two that the carriage was ready to unload them for they were not stopping for a problem but had reached their destination. Opening the carriage door he noticed the two of them and a large grin exploded on his lips. He waited a moment but the two of them did not notice him standing there, after a few seconds longer he formed a fist and pumped it in the air mocking a cheer. “Go Damon Go!” At the sound of Robert’s voice the two of them stopped and snapped their heads in the direction of his voice.
Innocence started to open and close her mouth like a fish and Damon just bit his lip trying to hide the blush that was now spreading over his cheeks. Robert taking advantage of the free blackmail he had gotten just crossed his arms, “Innocence darling, you are suppose to make that motion with your lips on his neck not in my general direction…” That caused Innocence to clamp her mouth shut and bury her face in Damon’s chest. Damon just sighed and began to fix his tie. Robert getting a few more laughs in closed the door so the two of them could finish. After Damon finished with his tie he began to fix the back of her dress so it would not fall off when she stood up.
After a moment Innocence with a blush still staining her cheeks grabbed a handkerchief from her bodice and started to wipe his face off. Damon just stood still with a blush still slightly on his face as well. He had never exactly been caught before… Not that is was exactly a big deal anymore but still… After Innocence cleaned his face she put away the handkerchief and took a deep breath before leaving his lap. Damon followed suit and the both of them left the carriage. Damon in an attempt to change the embarrassing mood looked at Innocence and held a slightly confused look. “So what are we doing now exactly?” Innocence taking advantage of the subject change just smiled. “If I tell you it will not be a surprise.”
Damon looked at her with a amusement and stared at her before shrugging. She had a point… Following after her he ignored the thumbs up he was getting from Walter and Robert. Almost falling over when he saw the blank look and thumbs up from Enigma. Innocence looked at the all the thumbs up and getting the wrong idea again gave it back thinking it was directed at her. Robert and Walter looked at each other before chuckling. Enigma just dropped her thumb up and with her hands hit both of them at the same time in the chest. “Stop laughing and feed the horses.” Both men kept grinning before bowing in a mocking manner which caused Enigma to roll her eyes.
Inside Damon was surprised he had never heard or seen this place before. Leave it to his brother to find a place like that… Innocence walked up to the counter and the perky woman bowed before asking Innocence how many. Innocence held up a peace sign for two and the woman smiled before leading Innocence and Damon who was lagging behind due to all the decorations on the walls. Being led to a table Innocence looked to see Damon was ten feet away staring at a moose head that was mounted on the wall with suspicious. As if the rest of the moose was behind the wall. Innocence giggled before grabbing his arm and dragging him away from the moose which he gave one last paranoid look at.
Sitting down Damon gave her a confused look, “This place is…” He tried to looked for the word and Innocence just grinned. “Awesome? Strange? Spooky? Interesting? Romantic?” Damon gave her an amused smile, “Yeah I suppose you could say that…” After a moment another perky woman dressed up in a waitress uniform appeared. She also bowed and she handed out two pieces of paper to both Innocence and Damon. “We hope you enjoy your stay.” Innocence just smiled before being polite and looking at the menu. Damon picked it up and looked at it before frowning.
“I cannot eat anything on this menu… Not to mention do you think they are using that moose for the mystery meat?” Innocence taking her menu lightly hit him on the head. “Drop the moose Damon. You do not need to eat anything, the back has a wine list.” Damon turning the menu over noticed they indeed had a wine list, they had white, red, and a few he had never heard of before. He blinked in surprise, just then the perky waitress came back. “Alright darlings do you know what you want or do you need more time?” Innocence smiled and sat straight, “Well we do not need anything to eat but if you have a wine that you would suggest we will take that.” The waitress paused for a moment before smiling. “Well I would have to suggest the Domaine de la Romanee-Conti but it is a tad bit expensive…”
Innocence smiling handed her menu to the waitress who took Damon’s. “We will take that then.” The waitress smiled and left the two alone. Damon gave Innocence a confused expression, “How are we suppose to pay for this? I forgot to bring my money with me.” Innocence rolled her eyes. “With my body, I already knew it would come to this some day.” Damon gave her a shocked look, Innocence just giggled, “Relax, I was given some money from my sister when I was talking to her. It seems Rhys had her in on this as well, so just relax.” Damon hearing it was a joke dropped the shocked look but glared softly. “Bad joke…” Innocence just shrugged with an amused look on her face. “I try.”
After a moment the waitress came back with two fancy glasses and the bottle of wine. Placing the wine on the table she opened it then poured some into the two glasses before placing the wine on the table and bowed one last time before leaving the two alone again. Damon watched her leave wondering why she was so perky and why the hell she was all over the place. Innocence looked at the wine and took a sip before she broke into a smile. “Wow this tastes good.” Damon looked at her before looking at his own glass. Grabbing it he too took a sip and grinned. “Wow… You are right.” After a moment both had finished their glasses and Innocence was starting round two.
Just as they were going to start round three the perky waitress, three more waitresses, and two waiters and started to sing an old song. This caused Damon to just stare in horror. He noticed everyone inside was looking at him. Innocence just looked on in surprise. She had no idea you could get sung to on your birthday… By strangers at least she had been sung a similar song but… That was family. Damon by the end of the song had buried his head in his arms. Innocence gave him an amused smile and thanked the singing group as they left. After a moment Damon raised his head with a blush on his face. He knew that song, Rhys obviously had gotten these people to do this… Rhys was the only one who sung it to him just because he knew it embarrassed him so much.
After a moment he finished his glass of wine and stole Innocence’s who just kept watching in amusement. “Was it so bad?” Damon just rested his chin on the table. He looked up at her trying to keep low as possible in case anyone was still looking. “Yes…” Innocence just rolled her eyes and poured the last two glasses of wine. She drank this one and Damon drank his. After finishing the wine Innocence stood. Damon went to follow but almost fell over. Innocence helped him keep steady. She just giggled at him. Throwing the money she had been given by her sister on the table she figured it would be exactly the price and would not need to stick around to find out how much it was. Leading Damon outside the three who had been playing rock paper scissors all stood up and went to get the carriage ready.
Damon once again helped her in the carriage but almost fell backwards while doing so. Innocence snapped her hands out and while laughing helped him inside as well. Enigma then knocked on the door. Innocence opened it and Enigma looked at her sister, “The next ride it going to take awhile… So if you want him to be ready I would let him sleep…” Innocence blushed but nodded. Enigma closed the door softly and after the wild call from Red Hare and the crack of reins the carriage was moving again. Damon had his eyes closed and Innocence smirked up at him.
He was getting a buzz that only good wine gave. Not to mention he had a lot of it. Reaching up she pulled him so he was resting his head on her shoulder. Damon opened an eye before snuggling his cheek into her shoulder and closing his eye. Innocence just smiled. If she remembered correctly they would be going to the forest now… She was not exactly sure which one but she knew the next step had a forest in it. Like her sister said the ride took quite awhile. After about an hour into the ride Innocence had fallen asleep. When the carriage finally stopped an half an hour later then that Enigma opened the door and saw the two of them were asleep.
Grinning she rolled her eyes and poked Damon roughly in the back causing him to moan in frustration. He was comfortable and tired and he did not want to be woken up and and and why the hell or rather what was poking him!? Grumbling after being poked about fifteen times he noticed Enigma was grinning at him. Lifting his head up he noticed Innocence was asleep. He shook her awake gently and then stretched. After a moment Innocence woke up and noticed her sister was waiting for them to exit the carriage. The two guys were taking care of the horses this time around.
Sleeping off the short buzz both Damon and Innocence left the carriage and looked around in confusion. They were in a forest alright but… From the looks of it so were about twenty something gypsy with musical instruments. That confused the hell out of Damon but it reminded Innocence what the next direction was. It was to dance… She had no clue if Damon knew how to dance and if he did which dances he knew but she figured as long as they were having fun it did not matter. Damon went to ask what was going on but Innocence took his hand and lead him over to a clear area. Damon gave her a questioning look but when the music started he gave her a alarmed look.
“Wait…” Innocence gave him a sly look, “Wait what?” Damon narrowed his eyes, “I do not dance…” Innocence gave him an amused look, “Yes you do, remember that time-” Before she could finish he pressed a hand to her lips and looked around to see if anyone heard what she had said. Innocence laughed under his hand. Damon then frowned and almost whined. “I thought I said to keep that a secret…” Innocence shrugged, “Well it is true, so you can dance. Come on, dancing is fun.” Damon pouted, “Can I just watch you?”
Innocence rolled her eyes, “I do not know how to dance alone without causing you to flip out if more then just you is watching… Do you really want to risk me dancing alone?” Damon waited a moment before sighing, “Fine…” The music changed at a flick of Innocence’s wrist and after that she proceeded to help Damon place his hands on the right areas. She then started to teach him how to dance. For about three hours she taught him and in the final hour he had seemed to get the hang of it. It seemed like he was having fun too. Just then Enigma appeared and got their attention. “Time to get going guys.”
Innocence smiled and looked at Damon who smirked back. He although would not easily admit it, he did have fun. Returning to the carriage Damon was the first one to reach it, Enigma pulled her sister aside and gave her a small box with a ribbon. Innocence then remembered the next step. She was suppose to give him a gift she was given. Which was handy for her seeing she never was good at getting him normal gifts… Hell she had to give him herself for Christmas which was that rather sad… Not that he seemed to mind but still it was not her idea of a good gift. Returning to the carriage she sat next to Damon who looked confused at her long time outside.
When the carriage started she took her hands off the gift that had been resting in her lap. Damon noticed and gave her a strange look. “What is that?” Innocence just smiled and handed it to him. Damon gave her an amused look at the action and then began to open it. After he opened it he felt a smirk explode on his face. He held the charm in front of Innocence who blinked innocently at the gift. Damon had noticed it had something engraved in the metal. He found it oddly amusing. It had the crest of Lee on it on one side and on the other it said property of Innocence return if lost. Innocence reading what was engraved blushed before laughing.
Go figure they would go embarrass her like that. Damon grinning at her reaction figured the gift had not been her idea but still liked it. It fit his gift of claim on her necklace and Damian’s matching gift. He took the charm and placed it around his neck before tucking it in his shirt. Innocence looked at him mildly surprised but then grinned. She then tried to remember the next thing on the list. Feeling the carriage halt she waited a moment before Walter this time opened the door. He smiled at the two and then allowed them to exit. The sun was going to start rising soon and Walter pointed towards the castle of Lee. “Well this is where you are on your own, hope you had fun.” Innocence gave Walter a hug before Damon just gave him a light punch on the shoulder of thanks and followed her.
Walter watched them before closing the carriage door and walked over to Enigma and Robert to help put things away before turning home. Damon sighed, he had fun, in fact he had almost forgotten about his mountain of work until they walked past his work and he saw his fallen door. He then let out a sad sigh, he figured things were over and while this would be a birthday to remember he did not want it to end yet… He went to go over to his study to go back to work but felt Innocence grab his arm and tug it with a sly look on her face. He gave her a confused look but the look on her face made him grin. He allowed himself to be dragged away. Wondering what was going to happen now. Happy his birthday was not done just yet.
Innocence went to the room that was on the letter of directions. Opening the door she allowed Damon to enter before closing it. Damon sat down on the bed and crossed his legs. “So now what?” He had a slight leer in his glance at her but she just cocked her hip and crossed her arms. “Take your shirt off…” Damon gave her a surprised look at the demand and how bold it was. “Huh?” Innocence walked over and pulled at his tie with a grin on her lips. “I said…” She nipped at his ear softly before continuing. “To take your shirt off…” Damon looked at her with surprise before moving his hands to work on his tie, jacket, and dress shirt. While he was doing that Innocence walked over to the bottle that had been left out.
Noticing a letter she quickly opened it and read it. She had wondered what it had been but it made sense. Not that she was a great master at this whole thing but it would probably make it less painful in the long run… Noticing he had taken his shirt off and folded it neatly she grinned at the charm that still hung around his neck. Damon looked at her with curiosity. Innocence keeping the bottle hidden behind he back dipped down to his level and whispered in his ear, “Lay down on the bed…” Damon rose a brow before laying on his back on the bed. Innocence however just laughed. “No silly on your stomach.” Damon seemed more confused at the statement but followed what he was told to do.
Resting his arms on a bunch of pillows he rested his chin on his arms. Innocence taking advantage of this took a look at the remaining steps before putting the list away. Getting on the bed she stepped until she was standing next to Damon. Placing the small bottle in her mouth she used her hands to lift her dress skirt up to her hips. She then sat down on his lower back which caused him to tilt his head back to try and try to look at her. She just smiled as she quickly took the bottle from her mouth before he saw it. He gave her another confused look before grinning, “Has it been that long that you actually forgot how this goes?” Innocence giggled before rolling her eyes.
“Yes that must be what it is right?” Damon went to answer but she opened the small bottle and squeezed the contents on his back. The cold hitting his skin made him freeze for a moment. He went to ask another question but she had already started to rub her hands on his back. She had never did this before, but when she had a really bad backache, her sister did it so she knew it felt nice. After a moment when he creased asking questions and making teasing comments she knew he must have been enjoying it. Damon had been taken by surprise at the sudden coldness on his back but once he felt her hands rubbing his back he had creased all through and just grinned. He had no idea she knew how to give backrubs.
After being hunched over a desk for a week with little or no sleep a backrub was exactly what he needed. She started on his lower back just in front of where she was sitting but slowly moved her hands up his back and onto his sore shoulders. Damon had been enjoying it on his lower back but when she started hitting his tense and sore muscles on his shoulders he could not help but let out of small groan. That caused Innocence to blush but she just rolled her eyes and kept the movements she had been doing to get another groan. After a moment she moved slightly and it caused a moan. She was tempted to smack him but that would hardly be nice to do. She just bit her lip and tried to keep from blushing.
After a few minutes she started to leave his shoulders and went back down to his lower back. She then went to grab more from the small bottle but Damon took advantage of her being off balance. Swinging his arm behind and grabbed her waist before spinning so he was sitting on his back. Innocence froze at the sudden change of position and gave a look of surprise. She still had a blush on her face from before and then frowned. He did not even give her enough time to get rid of it. She went to complain but he just reached his arm behind her head and brought her down so he could kiss her.
She when released leaned against his chest and pouted. He was catching her by surprise again… Damon just grinned at her reaction. He then took the bottle that she had gone to grab. Placing it in his mouth he sat up and after grabbing Innocence by her waist turned her so she saw looking at the door. She looked over her shoulder to ask him what he was doing but when he untied the ties of her dress and bandages before he tugged the sleeves off her arms she just froze. She had gotten a backrub before but she had never gotten one from Damon before… It almost made her giddy but she bit her lip and decided to act calm about it.
She went to ask him if he really wanted to return the favor seeing it was his birthday and all but before she could ask she felt the cold on her back and nearly jumped. No wonder she was told to sit on his back. She however soon felt his warm hands rubbing against her back making it so it was not cold anymore. She then felt him rest his chin on her shoulder. “Lay down…” Innocence blinked in surprise but followed the order. She felt him sit on her back and start to return the favor. At first she started to almost fall asleep but that was until he got to her shoulders. At the first squeeze of her shoulders her eyes ended up shooting open before she let out a groan.
She had thought he had been doing it to tease her but it felt so damn good she could not blame him. Getting the reaction he wanted he kept rubbing her shoulders. She let out a few more moans and groans before he started to move down to her lower back again. He then leaned forward and whispered in her ear, “You look stunning in that dress but you know you would look so much better with it on the floor…” Innocence who had been falling asleep at the relaxing backrub snapped her eyes open again. She looked over her shoulder and grinned. “Oh really…” Damon rubbing his hands together to rid of the extra lotion nodded his head, “Yes really…”
Innocence waited a moment before turning so she was on her back. “That sounds like a pick up line…” Damon gave a cheesy grin, “Your uncle knows a lot of them apparently.” Innocence just rolled her eyes, she already knew that. Hell most of the ones she did not even understand she got from him. Keeping a hand over her chest she used the other one to prop herself up. “Well then… I may not be a stonemason but I bet I can make your bed rock.” Damon just grinned and tugged her arm that was covering her chest. “Well then please do.” Innocence blushed at the lack of reaction she had planned and allowed him to move her arm.
He then dipped down and began to kiss her neck. He then began trailing kisses from her neck and started towards her collarbone. He then continued until he reached her chest. Just then she remembered she was suppose to have a pillow fight. She went to mention it but all that came out was a surprised moan. Damon grinned before he sat up, “What were you saying?” Innocence with a large blush on her cheeks sat up with him and tried to catch her breath. “I was saying I am suppose to have a pillow fight first.” Damon gave her an amused look before reaching behind him and bopping her lightly with a pillow. “I win.”
Innocence just gave him a look of disbelief. He then tossed the pillow over his shoulder before he leaned over and reached a hand up her already loose dress and pulled at the wrapping around her hips. He used his other hand to pull at the ribbon in her hair. She just sat still surprised at the whole boldness of what was happening. Getting the ribbon out he tossed it over his shoulder and then used both hands to work on the wrapping around her hips. Finally getting it off he let it fall as far as it could before backing off and looking at her with a leer he did not bother to hide. “Care to stand for me?”
Innocence just gave him another look of surprise before she got off the bed and stood. As she did so the bandages fell from her hip and her loose dress followed. She then suddenly shy allowed her hair to cover her chest while she clasped her hands in front of her lap. She lowered her head with a flaming blush on her face. She had not planned to be totally undressed first. Normally she was to busy trying to get him undressed to notice that she herself was undressed but seeing she was not busy she was totally aware and she could not help but feel a wave of embarrassment.
Damon just stared for a moment. He then went to the edge of the bed and stood up. Innocence felt her face grow hotter at him coming over. She had no idea why she was suddenly so bashful about this yet she could not help it. Damon stepped up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. She moved her arms and rested them on his arms. He then hunched over her so he could rest his chin on her shoulder. He smirked before he started to nibble on her ear. Innocence let out a soft moan at the nibble and he just moved from her ear to her neck causing her to grow louder in her moaning. That caused him to grin larger against her skin.
He continued for a moment before he gently lead her towards the bed. Reaching the edge he let her go and allowed her to hop on the bed and crawl towards the pillows, still with a small blush on her face and still acting quite bashful. He just grinned, he thought it was rather strange seeing her past record but then again things were going slower this time around so he supposed that was what go her acting strange. He thought it was cute thought, he liked it when she was bold but seeing her act so innocent for once was amusing to him. Looking down he sat down with his back to her and took his shoe off, throwing them randomly across the room. He then practically tore his pants off.
He waited a moment before leaning back. He saw her looking at the bed and he forced himself in her vision with a playful grin on his face. “Why so shy?” The comment just caused her to blush harder, look away, and let out a little whine. He just continued to grin. She kept looking away until he reached up and grabbed some of her hair and brought her down so he could kiss her. After a few moments he allowed her to break the kiss. He then spun so it was on his stomach. He then rested his chin on her left thigh. She braved a look down at him, she saw the playful pout on his lips. He seemed to be trying to make her feel less embarrassed which caused her to give a small smile.
After a moment he lifted his chin off her thigh and began to kiss it, she looked down at him with a look of surprise but he spared her what she had been expecting and began to trail the kisses up her stomach and to her collarbone where he went to her neck and finally finished the trail by meeting her lips. He wrapped a hand around her neck and wrapped the other around her waist. Innocence was surprised for a moment before she felt her blush fade and she was able to wrap her arms around his neck. Damon noticing she was not as shy anymore grinned against her lips and moved his arm from around her neck to around her waist with his other arm.
He then picked her up and placed her so she was straddling his waist. She gave a sound of surprise but relaxed when she was placed on his lap. She felt him nip at her ear before he moved, and fell on his back allowing her to take the lead. He looked up at her with a grin, she looked down. She felt a bit more bold at the grin, almost seeing it as a challenge. Taking her position she saw him lift his chin up and hiss softly at the movement. She then smiled, she knew what she was doing now. Getting her boldness back she moved painfully slow for a moment listening to him cry out as she moved. She felt a grin as she began to speed up.
This caused him to cry out louder and in quicker succession. She continued to switch up the speed until she felt herself being flipped. She saw Damon hovering over her and she looked up at him with a curious look on her face. He was panting yet he had a devilish grin on his face. She saw the grin and felt a wave of emotion, she knew that grin meant she was in a world of trouble. She however just kept looking up at him. She saw him drive down for her lips, he then grinded his hips into hers before pulling back and thrusting. That caused her to let out a screaming moan to explode from her and crash against his lips which were still crushing into hers.
He paused for a moment before he pulled out and moved again, this time going a bit faster, this time he did not pause. This caused her to arch her back, taking advantage of her arched back he left her lips and attached himself to her left nipple causing her to bit her lip and thrash. She knew she was in trouble but this was more then she had expected. He continued at her chest and speed up till he felt like he was going to come. He then froze before he focused on nipping and sucking on her nipple. She let out a whimper and then a moan. He then trailed his kisses to her other breast and proceeded to give the other nipple equal treatment.
After a few moments he started to trail his kisses lower. He stopped at her navel, only to get a peek at her face. He grinned at her, her face was flushed and she had a look on her face that made him pause for a moment. He then continued lower still till he got where he had been planning on going all along. He always got an amusing reaction when he did this. Innocence who was beginning to recover noticed he was between her legs and went to get his attention in order to stop him but it was to late, as she went to speak he had began to nip and lick. She could only fall back and let out a feral cry. Damon just continued to grin, letting out a pained moan. He had wanted to make this last longer then the other times and he would if it killed him.
He felt her thrashing against him, he let out a chuckle when she by instinct grinded her hips against his tongue. Placing a hand at her inner thigh he waited for her to grind again before thrusting his fingers inside her in a mock of what he had been doing before. He continued to do this until he felt her grab his hair. He allowed himself to be dragged up so he was on top of her again. He hovered over her again before thrusting into her again, this time however he grabbed her hips and flipped on his back. Innocence rested against his chest for a moment trying to recover from what had just happened. He just rested his hands on her hips. He waited for a moment as she got a grip.
She then sat up against his hips. He saw the look in her eyes and felt his grin grow even larger then it had been before. She rested her hands on his chest and began to grind and rock her hips hard into his. He arched his back and growled at the sensations. He pressed his hands harder into her hips and grinded his hips into hers as she grinded. After a moment he felt the familiar feeling but this time did nothing to stop it. He just continued to grind and then the moment came, or rather he did. He let out a scream of pleasure that was soon joined by Innocence who had finally climaxed and after a moment she rested against his chest. She was panting again but she had a smirk on her face.
Damon simply took his hands off her hips and rested them against her back. He was panting also, he smirked, while fast was fun he had to admit dragging out was much better. A few moments later they both caught their breath but after a busy day Innocence simply waited a moment before sliding off his stomach and chest and wrapped her arms around him. He wrapped his arm around her and used his free arm to bring the blankets over them. He then buried his face in her neck. He then soon fell asleep Innocence not to far behind.
Meanwhile during the little backrub and bed games Rhys and the two girls along with Damian were playing cards. Rather Rhys was teaching them modern games with cards he had made himself by ripping up a bunch of paper in similar sized strips and putting the symbols, numbers, and faces on the cards. He had taught the two girls how to play poker, go fish, rummy, and after losing so many times fifty-two pick up. He was currently playing poker which he found the girls were really good at playing. He normally was good at the game but the emotions coming from the bedroom was driving him nuts.
First it was surprise, then it was embarrassment, then it was sexual tension, and only after the release of all those emotions did he look down and see he had a straight flush. He grinned, “Bingo…” He could focus now. Both girls noticing him say bingo gave a confused look. Jezebelle tilted her head. “I thought Bingo was a different game and also a dog from an old song…” Rhys looked at her confused before noticing he said bingo. He thought for a moment hoping his good cards were not suspected before putting on a cheesy smile.
“Oh yeah wrong game… Aheh…” He gave a weak laugh and both girls looked at each other before shrugging. Sarah then placed her cards down, “Full house.” Jezebelle grinned, “Four of a kind!” Rhys waited a moment figuring the girls were so used to him losing that they would not even let him show his cards. “This is double or nothing right?” He was currently twenty down… The girls both nodded and he showed his cards. “Straight flush, read em and weep darlings.” Both girls gave a look of surprise before laughing. Rhys then yawned, he could hear birds chirping. After knowing his brother had a decent birthday for once stood up and stretched.
Sarah quickly cleaned up the cards and Jezebelle took Damian. She had already picked a room to hang in for tonight. Rhys started towards his room and Sarah after finishing followed him. Jezebelle waved goodbye before heading towards her room. Rhys then grinned, he did not accidentally say it out loud this time but he thought it. ‘Your welcome idiot…’ he had a almost giddy grin on his face. He had gotten his plan to work and he was up twenty. Yawning one last time he reached the room and fell into the bed. Sarah just smiled before closing the door and following. Well from Rhys reaction she figured the plan worked. Yawning herself she allowed her eyes to close. She would have to ask Innocence how things went tomorrow, that is if she did not find her and Jezebelle first…

The nice was young, the humans were asleep and the darkling were waking up to enjoy their time to be awake. That was save for one little boy who had a big problem… At four years old he had gotten used to having certain things and well… Due to a bit of a problem he was missing one important one… His mother had been called to Tiamorre alone to deal with some issues that concerned her… That meant he was not invited and he was stuck at Lee. Now he would not have any problem with that if there was not a mean person on the staff picking on him… Sure it would be easy to run to Rhys, Damon, or even Sarah but he was blocking the way. He had a name but Damian never bothered to use it… He settled on calling it Devil or He never calling him by his name… The name was not deserved after all that he had done to poor Damian.
It had always been so easy to sit on the floor crying for his mother when he needed help but she was not here and this meanie knew it… Ah yes he knew and he wanted to take advantage of the fact Uncle Rhys and Auntie Sarah were away at their little hide away he had heard about and Father was very very very busy with some issues that had arrived just after mother had left… That meant he was technically alone… This was causing him a great distress… Sighing he figured he should put his plan to work… He knew the ins and outs of this castle like most children know the back of their hands. That would make it easier to sneak past him until day time where he could sneak into bed where Damon would hopefully be and if he was really lucky his mother. Not that he wanted her risk getting burned by the sun but having her here would be nice.
His first stop was the library… He needed to get to the library where his mother often took him when he was upset. While he liked the stalls, his mother had taken Red Hare and the other two horses were to wild for him. Az tried to bite him and Diablo had tried to crush him… He forgave them but still had a slight fear of them… He saw him… The devil he was armed with a rag and a duster… He was a butler. He remembered when he first started working here. After spending a lot of time with Uncle Walter he expected his man to be as friendly seeing he too was a Butler and in front of Father he had been but the moment both his mother and father looked away… He had pushed, shoved, and laughed at him.
He would listen to Innocence when she asked for something to be made, and he would make it perfectly for everyone but when his name came up… He always would end up sick to his stomach. He had gotten pretty skinny from lack of eating and was happy when his mother thought he was simply being picky and started making his meals again. She was so worried over him it made him feel safe and now she was gone… He was alone, he wanted to go to his father but… He knew he would probably cause problems… Reaching the library he looked around. He had passed the mean butler but, god help him if he was followed. It would not have been the first time he was locked in the library by accident.
He only came here cause his mother read to him and it gave him a calm feeling but if his attention span shorted like it normally did he would get himself in trouble due to being so bored… Closing the library door he walked into the room and sat down. He stared at the wall for a moment before he felt his eyes tearing up. He was trying to be brave and avoid telling anyone about this problem but… He then started to whimper softly. He almost let out a scream when he heard the door opening. He figured he had been heard and stayed silent with a look of fear on his face. He then saw he had been caught. He bit back a scream and tried to pull the frown Rhys used.
Devin had been working here for less then a few months, he had come from a rather rocky family… His family had lived in extensive wealth and being pure blooded he had always felt it fit. His history was never really rich… He had been abandoned by his father who had found himself another woman and started another family while his mother treated him like dirt. All this caused even his intense love of money not to be a reason to stay. That is why he took this job, he had heard Darcia was ruled by Gypsy and hardly wanted to work for them and he had heard the castle of Tiamorre had enough help as it was… Lee had been his last real chance to get an excuse to live in a nice house and pretend to do work while getting paid.
If anything it was better then living at home. The outfits were nice, and while he got the job, he was jealous of the little snot that was running around. Here he had a mother and a father both of which loved him… He was spoiled rotten yet it did not show… It was not fair at all and it caused him to want to make the little brat suffer for being so damn perfect and having the nice little family he never had. He had been ‘cleaning’ the hallway when he heard the library door open. He had wanted to go right away but he figured Damian would have his guard up so he waited… He then heard a soft whimpering. That caused him a smirk. Dropping his stuff on the floor he opened the library door to see the look of horror on Damian’s face and it caused a grin to grow on his face.
He was only nineteen but he still loved to bully those he deemed unworthy and here he deemed this child unworthy of everything he got so he would even things out… Walking over he laughed hard at the fail of a frown he was getting. “Awww does the little brat miss his mommy?” Damian kept his glare up and refused to answer the question, his mother had always said feeding into teasing made the bully have fun and stick around longer. There was a thin line between defending ones self and becoming a favorite target. He wanted to put his mother’s words to work and his faith in her made him believe they would work. Devin not getting the normal reaction frowned before grinning. “Oh I get it… Mr tough guy things he can take me on? Mighty brave for a two year old snot nosed brat…”
Damian frowned, “I am four!” Devin shrugged with a amused look on his face, “Two, four, six, eight, does it really matter? You are still a snot nosed child. I mean really… And here you are hiding in your mommy’s little hideout trying to escape my company. Not really smart snot ball.” Damian pouted and then looked away. He buried his face in the back of the chair he had been sitting on. Devin waited before grabbing his collar and lifting him up like a bad kitten or puppy. “Oh no, you will not be able to pull that trick on me. Your parents might let you do that if you want to get away with shit but you will listen to me.”
Damian started to flail not enjoying the feeling of being off the ground without support and also trying to get some air that his collar was cutting off. After a moment Devin lifted him up and looked him in the eyes. Purple to gold, a frown to a grin. “I know what will make you happy… Why not talk about your pretty little mother… Oh how I would love to bag that fine piece of ass. To tell the truth… I think your father is pretty useless… Not man enough for such a fragile lady as your mother but… The way she acts around him makes me think she must be quite the woman in bed… I wonder if I should give that a try. Would you like a little half sibling you little piece of shit?”
Damian gave him a blank look, while he hated being picked on he never felt the urge to get hurt defending himself but… His mother and his father was a different story. Flailing again he reached out and grabbed Devin’s hair while trying to kick his chest and stomach with his legs. Devin started to shake him to make him stop but after a moment tossed him into a bookcase. It caused the bookcase to moan at the movement it had not felt in awhile. Devin then looked at Damian who was now moving to stand up but ended up letting out a large scream of a sob as he moved his arm. Devin then frowned, he had done to much… He was going to get in trouble… Darting out of the room he went to resume ‘cleaning’ the hallway.
Damon had been deep in work, he had felt the need to rip up a few documents that went on to long but he fought the urge knowing it would come to crap on him later. He had almost started to pull out his hair when he heard a large scream of a sob. Jolting he looked around before raising an eyebrow. He knew that screaming sob… Sighing he knew he should keep working but Damian was more important. Standing he left his work study and saw Devin… As far as he knew, Rhys had hated him, Sarah stayed away from him due to some sort of failed flirt attempt that almost got Rhys to kill him, and all the woman staff complained about him but… He seemed like such a good worker it confused him… He was confused about him as a whole but the story he had been given made him give the young man a shot.
So far no evidence had really come to surface and sadly until he got some solid evidence he could not easily fire the young man… It annoyed him slightly but he needed proof it was only fair. Listening he heard a sobbing coming down the hallway, listening he started with a slow confused walk but as soon as he found out which room it was coming from he broke into a sprint. Opening the door he looked around and saw Damian with his face streaked with tears and he was on the floor holding his elbow. Rushing to his side he placed a hand on his head. Damian figuring it was Devin again went to curl up but when he saw it was Damon he relaxed.
Damon gave him a slightly confused look, “What happened? You were not climbing the bookcases again were you?” Damian wanted to say that was what it was and stayed silent for a moment before snapping. “No…” He whined out softly. He sniffled before going into a long explanation of what had been going on, “He was really mean, he pretends to be nice in front of daddy so he will not fire the mean mean butler, and he is nice in front of mommy so he can appear nice for her, he was trying to steal some of Auntie’s clothes and messed up some of swords that belong to Uncle Rhys, he would make me food taste weird and glare at me if I did not eat it, he teases me, and he told me daddy is useless and not good enough for mommy which is a lie… He is lying!!”
Damon looked down at him surprised for a moment but then he frowned. “How long as this be happening Damian?” Damian sniffled and gave a hiccup. “Since he started…” Damon gave Damian a sympathetic look, to have been dealing with that when Devin had started in mid summer and here it was late fall… He then noticed Damian’s elbow was being held. Carefully picking Damian up he left the room. Devin noticed and frowned, he knew he needed to pretend he had no idea what was going on. He walked up to the two and with a fake smile tilted his head. “Oh my was he playing on the bookcases again?” Damian buried his face in Damon’s neck ignoring the pain it caused to shoot up his arm. Damon just glared at Devin.
Devin gave a surprised look at the hostile glare. He then frowned, he knew he had been ratted on… Leave it to the stupid brat to finally crack and of course ‘daddy’ dearest would end up spoiling his son again… He went to speak but suddenly a sing song voice was heard. “I am hooooooooome! Where is everyone?” Everyone turned their head in turn to see Innocence with a large bag and a pan in her hand. She was dressed in a different dress and walked over to Damon. She then tilted her head. She went to ask what happened but suddenly remembered the stuff. “Oh hey, my sister was going to throw a party for her little French friend and needed some help. She ended me giving me some left over stuff… Although I am not sure what to do with the pan…”
Devin who had his arms crossed noticed Damian was glaring at him. Rolling his eyes he noticed Damon seemed to relax at Innocence coming by. He grinned and felt he knew exactly what he had to do. Leaning over he waited for Innocence to finish speaking before running his hand down her back, resting it on her ass and squeezing it all the while grinning in spite at the two males. Innocence tensing up in surprise swung her hand and hit him with the pan. Devin fell to the floor and Innocence looked in surprise before grinning with excitement. “Nevermind I found a use!” Damon gave her an amused look before shaking his head. Damian giggled and Devin held his face. He then took the chance to try to cause a bang before being fired, he knew he was going to be…
He went to look up Innocence’s dress but got a foot in the face. “What the hell is his problem?” She gave a look of surprise to Damon who once again rolled his eyes and held his amused face at bay. Damian then started to cry. Innocence noticing placed the stuff on the floor and stepped over the now moaning man on the floor. She then started to take Damian from Damon’s arm but the movement caused him to cry out harder. Innocence frowned, “Damian… I thought you would miss me…” Damian then bite his lip and looked at her with a small smile, he was trying to show her he was happy but his arm was throbbing really badly.
Innocence taking him carefully placed him on the floor and rubbed his tears from his face. “What is wrong honey?” Damian just pouted, Damon sighed and got on his knees and stood on them next to Innocence. Innocence looked up at him confused, “Do you know?” Damon sighed, “Well I know this much… Devin is fired, all that stuff was true and he had been teasing Damian for the last few months…” Innocence suddenly became seriously. “Oh… I see…” Damian held his arm and slumped his shoulders. He had failed at dealing with his problems alone again…
Devin who had recovered growled, “You cannot fire me I quit, this place is so screwed up, this little brat gets so much attention and he is completely useless. I hope I broke his arm, that way he can never take over and he is a failure at everything and you both fail at rising what was already useless!” He went to stand up but Innocence had leaned past her son and grabbed the train of Devin’s shirt. He went to tell her to let go but got a slight shiver up his spine when he saw the look in her eyes. She then tugged on his shirt and brought him back to the floor. Carefully lifting her dress she sat on his stomach and after quickly cracking her knuckles she proceeded to start punching him in the face along with slapping him hard.
“You…Do…Not…Talk…Like…That…About…My….Darling…Sweet...Son…Again…You….Bloody…Bastard.” With each word she punched him. Damian watched with surprise at his mother’s sudden actions. Damon watched also but his expression was more amused. He then stood up and lifted Innocence from the now knocked out ex-butler. Being placed down she went to sit down and punch him some more but Damon placed her in a hug and rested his chin on her shoulder. “Enough…” Innocence stopped fighting and growled, “The f**k**g bastard broke my baby’s arm, there is never enough… Look see I missed a spot!” Damian who gripped his mother’s dress hem with his good hand looked up at her.
Bending down she picked him up ignoring the pain in her knuckles and gave his elbow a look. It did not look like that bad of a wound but on her son it was worse enough to make her want to kill. If he skinned his knee, got a cold, or broke his arm playing she could just be a kind woman and nurse him back to health but if someone caused any of these ailments they were going to pay… Pay dearly… Devin who had been out started to come to, moving to his elbow he laid on his side and looked up at Innocence. Innocence seeing he was awake growled softly, she wanted to keep going but she would be just like her aunt if she did that… Settling on instead on grabbing Damon’s hand and keeping her other hand firmly on Damian’s waist.
She stepped over Devin but made sure to have her other leg ‘accidentally’ kick him in the goods. She then before turning the corner glared at his now fetal positioned form. “If you threaten another one of my children or wish harm on anyone else I love, you will be sure never to have children in your long lonely lifetime now get out of here before I get the big bad wolf and tell him you stole one of Sarah’s clothes…” Devin glared at her as he got the feeling back in his goods. Standing up he started to limp past the door, he was stubborn, mean, and hot headed but not stupid nor did he have a death wish. If the sweet appearing woman could do this… The cold hearted man would probably finish the job.
With him gone Innocence took both men to the library. Damian whined softly but Innocence put him on the table. “I do not want this place to be ruined because some nobody… Wait a second and I will get you something-” Before she could finish she felt herself being pushed into a chair. Damon then held up her hands. “I will get the stuff, just made sure you watch your hands… I will wrap them in a moment.” Innocence looked down and saw her knuckles were a mangled mess and the slapping had turned her palms to a violent alarming red. She then laughed, she had no idea she did so much, no wonder her hands hurt. Damon rolled his eyes at the laugher and kissed her knuckles before standing up to get the first aid. Damian being along with his mother looked at her.
“Mommy?” Innocence looked at her son and gave a pleasant smile, “Yes Damian?” Damian seeing her smile gave a small one, “I love you…” Innocence felt her smile melt into a softer one and she just stood up and carefully wrapped her arms around him. Damian snuggled the best he could into her light embrace. He then looked surprised as she whispered a phrase she had heard Rob and Mary both use, “And I love you too, to the moon and back.” Damian felt a grin explode on his face, “That much?! Really truly?!”
Innocence pulled back and smiled even softer before rubbing her nose on his. “Well of course. What is not to love?” Damian just shrugged and then winced. Innocence bent forward, gave his elbow a soft kiss before picking him up and sitting down again. “I love your eyes, the way you giggle and smile, the way you hold onto to me like I would for some reason leave, the way you snore when you sleep-” Before she could finish Damian pouted, “Mooooommy I do not snore! That is Daddy!” Innocence looked at him in surprise before laughing. Damon had come back at that point. Hearing he was the one who snored he too got defensive.
“Heeey I do not snore you little hooligan.” Innocence just rolled her eyes, “I said the snoring was cute, I have no idea why you both are getting so defensive.” Damian whined softly as Damon took his jacket off. Looking at his arm he saw a bruise forming but as for a break there was no real proof. A sprain or a pull might be though. Wrapping the arm he grabbed a plant leaf which he folded in half and placed under Damian’s tongue. It was then Damian remembered, “Aggy! Aggy! Mummy sak shek lugs meh tob deh moob ung bahk!” Damon gave a look of amusement. “Ooooh…” Nodding his head slowly he looked up at Innocence who rolled her eyes.
“I told him I loved him to the moon and back.” Damon smiled before pouted, “Oh and I suppose you would leave me on the moon?” Innocence rolled her eyes and placed a hand on his head before playing with his hair. “Well of course not, like it or not this is a round way trip and you are coming if you want to or not.” Damon grinned and watched as the plant leaf took effect. Damian started to fall asleep and Innocence tightened her grip on him. Damon picked the now sleeping child up and placed him on the other chair. He then took the bandages and ointment and worked on Innocence’s hands quickly. After getting a decent wrapping she stood up and stretched.
She then picked Damian up and started towards the bedroom. Just when she went to turn the corner she almost bumped into Rhys. Sarah was with him but had a tired look on her face. She was resting her head on his arm. Innocence gave her a smile of hello and Sarah gave a tired on in return. Damon looked confused, “Back so soon?” Rhys sighed, “Yeah… There is a leak and it is raining really badly outside. I feel bad but I rather her be tired then sick.” Damon nodded and noticed the look of curiosity and confusion on his brother’s face he then looked around. “Something is different… Oh… Where is that butler you hired?” Damon growled softly but then sighed, “I fired him…”
Rhys gave a frown, “Aww and you did it when I was away? I wanted to fix his face up…” Damon just grinned, “Who said I let him go unharmed?” Rhys gave him a blank look, “What is that suppose to mean?” Innocence looked up at him with a cheerful voice but her voice and fake cheerfulness showed her real emotion, “Oh, he will not be coming back any time soon, well I need to go sleep nice seeing you again.” She then ducked under his arm and went into the room. Rhys turned and watched her leave, slightly confused to her obvious fake cheer. He then noticed the bandages on her hands. He looked at Damon who shrugged and went to follow after her. “I never said I did anything either. I got to say though… Do not piss her off… She is scary, very very scary when upset…”
Rhys just watched with a slightly amused look on his face. He had wanted to beat the guy up for the chance Sarah’s outfit was taken but… He figured Innocence did a good enough job, it was better then nothing anyways. Picking the now sleeping Sarah up he headed towards his own room. He still felt bad about Sarah not getting a good rest. She had picked up the Darkling sleep cycle pretty well but sometimes when going to hang with human friends reverted back and it was times like this it was a bit of a problem but he was fine with it. Reaching his room he placed her on the bed before spotting the shirt that had been taken resting behind the door. With a small laugh he picked up the shirt and put it away. Well he had no reason to hate the man anymore but… He was still glad he was gone, he had a weird aura about him and the emotions he kept getting made him sick.
With a yawn he looked outside and saw through the rain clouds that the sun was beginning to rise. Resting next to Sarah he slowly started to fall asleep feeling the light echoes of the people nearby. All of which was calm and happy. He felt a lazy smirk to rise on his lips. He still was a bit saddened by the idea of not being able to get rid of some tension and cause that little pain in the ass some respect but he figured a lesson with Innocence would be enough. So far it seemed his lessons were paying off not that the butler was that big of a threat. With that final thought he let his eyes close and sleep take over his tired body who welcomed the relax with glee.

A/N:: Doode… I had planned for fluff and my god it turned into a romantic humorous drama fluff thing… I mean really I had my ipod on shuffle while typing this and it was on low… I went from mystery and suspense to hurt to kick ass to fluff to humor to confusion to being tired… This is like a rollercoaster… I must try this again xD anyways either way I hope you enjoy this. I had fun doing it up. Sorry this A/N is so short. I am really tired and should get some more sleep… I might edit it but you know I never edit these things… It is either hit or miss. Anyways xD enjoy -cookies and bailey’s (or milk) for everyone!!!!!- Now here is a mini story for you guys. This is a little story about HOW Damian gets his OCD. ADD you can be born with but OCD is often a suppressed gene and then after something explosive or traumatic happens you start to fear things and get OCD. I have OCPD but I have been accused of OCD so I will try to make this as realistic as possible. This A/N sucks but the story is going to be a big sad with some borderline fluff so the A/N is just going to have to suck, the warnings above go for down here for the most part. Alright READ!

Damian was turning five soon. Due to his parents being ‘far to busy’ he had been sent to play with his friend Brishen. His mother had walked him to his friend’s house and had chatted with Jezebelle for a short while before both woman left and the boys were being watched by Brishen’s grandmother.. They had been playing with a few of Brishen’s instruments but after they heard a slight snore coming from Jalilah Brishen grabbed his hand and lead him to his private playground. At first Damian was against leaving the area his mother had told him to stay in but after a few minutes playing on the Gypsy made playground he loosened up. After a few moments Brishen touched Damian’s shoulder and darted off screaming to be caught.
Vivi had been sent on another fools errand… Rob had been sick for the last couple of days and for all she knew it was all an act. Anyone can put a finger down their throat and vomit, and anyone and put there face to their hands and only take them off as someone went to check for fever, and everyone knew if you pinched your cheeks you can get a flush look that added to the sick, it worked for noses too. She had been shopping for the stuff on the list but it was not what she wanted to be doing. She then spotted the Gyspy, she let out a disgusted look. She always thought those people are dirty and vile creatures. She then heard children laughing. She then saw two boys running past her.
With a frown she watched them run past and then felt something in her brain tick. Looking at the outfit… The hair… And the personality she felt her frown turn into a crooked grin. She followed after the two children, only approaching when they stopped to catch their breath. Brishen was the first one to notice her. He gave her a strange look, “Can we help you?” Vivi grinned, “Why yes you can…” She looked at Damian, “Boy… What is your name and your mother’s name?” Damian paused before looking at Brishen who shrugged. Damian then looked up at her, “My name is Damian and my mommy is named Innocence… She is really pretty. Do you know her?”
Vivi held her grin, “Why yes I do…” Damian seemed to brighten at that, he went to say something else but Vivi touched a finger to her lip. “You are so dirty… Do you hug your mother with those arms?” Damian looked down and saw but only a few spots of dirt from falling and frowned. “I am dirty? Should I take a bath?” Vivi gave a look of amusement. “Why maybe you should… Make sure you scrub yourself very hard when you get home.” Brishen watched the woman and with narrowed eyes grabbed Damian’s elbow. “Excuse me… I hear my mommy calling, come on Damian!” The two boys then ran off, Damian looked over his shoulder to see Vivi waving at him with a grin on her face.
Vivi then started back home, she had gotten most of the stuff and she did not want to be here if her little brat of a niece was going to be coming. She had already been banned from seeing her and she was stubborn but not stupid. She knew she would get nothing but trouble if she went after Innocence… But the great thing was, even if she hurt the wench of a woman it never actually hurt her. She was getting used to it but… She had gotten a real thrill at threatening the boy… Maybe she could get indirect fun by messing with the boy… With a grin well placed on her lips she started back at a calm pace to get Robert all the things he needed…
Back at Lee Damian’s surprise party had been set up and Innocence was going to go pick Damian up when she saw Jalilah and the two boys coming towards her. She gave Jalilah a confused look and Jalilah gave her a borderline worried one. “The child wished to come home saying it was very important… He would not stop crying… I figured you would be finished…” Innocence gave her a confused look that held some worry but she thanked Jalilah and allowed her to enter she then heard a group shout of surprise. She went inside to find everyone looking at each other in confusion. Innocence went over to Damon who looked just as puzzled. “What is wrong?” She gave a her own confused look and Damon just shrugged softly, “We yelled surprised and instead of freaking out over the party he ran upstairs…”
After a moment some doors slamming shut could be heard. Damon frowned, Innocence also frowned. “I think he is a bit young to be at the age to be rebelling…” Innocence then began to follow him up the stairs while everyone sat down and started to chat about the lack of response from the normally hyper boy. While Innocence was following Brishen piped up. “There was some weird woman who wanted to know his name… He had been acting weird since…” Damon took a moment but bit back a snarl, “Did she have blue eyes and white hair?” Brishen nodded slowly and Damon felt his fingernails stabbing into his palms again…
Innocence finally making it to the bathroom she heard sounds from she opened the door to peek her head in. “Damian what are you AH!” She slammed the door open and went over to the edge of the tub to grab her son’s wrists. He then pulled him out of the tub and looked at him with a freaked out look. “What happened?! Why is your skin raw?” Damian did not speak and only looked at the floor. “I am dirty… I do not want to make you dirty…” Innocence gave him a confused look. She then went to hug him but he pulled away and sat on the floor. She frowned and went to try again, “Darling… you re not dirty who told you that?”
Damian did not answer but Damon who had his way upstairs leaned against the door with a glare on his face. “Vivi did…” Innocence looked at him in surprise at his sudden appearance and then what he said hit her. She snapped her head at Damian who was now crying cause his skin hurt from being scrubbed so hard. Innocence bit her lip and stood up, draining the slightly blooded water she grabbed a towel and wrapped him in it. Fighting so he stayed in her embrace. After a moment he just started to cry his body hurt and he was now in his mind making his beloved mother dirty. Innocence let him go and grabbed his shoulders. “Damian… Listen to me. You are not dirty… Of all the times I hugged you, fed you, and bathed with you, I never got sick or became dirty. I am worried… Please do not fight me…”
Damian frowned but stopped fighting. Innocence softly began to pat the worst of the areas on his body and then picked him up carefully. She felt horrible, how Vivi had gotten to him she had no clue but she felt so guilty over letting it happen. She went to go down stairs but she felt her waist being hugged from behind and a soft nuzzle on her neck. She bit her lip harder and tried to keep the tears that were beginning to bubble up from falling. Damian saw his mother’s tears and went to ask her something but she just hugged him a bit tighter and pressed his face into her shoulder. She then slumped her shoulders and turned around so she could bury her face in Damon’s shirt. Damon frowned, maybe he should not have said anything…
He wrapped his arms around her again and slowly rubbed her back. After a moment she calmed down and with a sadden sigh she turned to go down stairs. Damon grabbed her free hand and laced his fingers with hers and walked next to her offering what comfort her could. He wanted to bash Vivi’s face in… She was still causing trouble… He wondered where Rob was… Reaching the group Innocence put on a happy face but her eyes were red from crying. “Um… Can we do this another time… Damian is not feeling well.” The group let out murmers of yes, of course, and sure see you then. They then began to leave even more confused.
Jezebelle watched the group leave and then walked over to Innocence who looked like she was going to start crying again. “Awww Kitten I heard what that minge did to poor Cub… Brishen knows what she looks like now and will make sure that Damian does not see her again. If I see her god will have mercy on her souless body…” Innocence gave her friend a thankful look and watched as the remaining people left. With a sigh she went to get some bandages for Damian’s now almost totally raw body. She was afraid that he would get sick and die if it was not treated for, or at least that is what she had heard about. Damon tugging her hand lead her to the library.
Making it to the library in record time Innocence unwrapped the towel and wanted to sob at the blood that was lining the towel but held it in cause each time she went to cry Damian looked like he was going to follow suit. Damon getting the bandages patted Damian’s head in a caring manner before stepping back to give Innocence enough room. After a few moments he was wrapped up, he seemed sad and tired but allowed to held at least. He looked up at his saddened mother and then over to his pissed father. He thought he was doing good but it seemed it was not good. Reaching the bedroom he snuggled against his mother. It seemed to took it to an extreme… He figured his mother was right she had been fine up to this point but… Just as he eyes went to close and he felt Damon wrap his arms around him and his mother he decided that he would keep clean juuuuuust in case. This time he would just avoid playing in the dirt and avoid scrubbing so hard he loses himself… Yeah that would be a good idea…

A/N:: Oh my god that was fluffy and saddening. I hope I did not ruin the high the first story gave. I just wanted to explain his OCD a little bit. It has fluff so I did not go to far off base, it just was sugar free fluff. This A/N sucks too and for that I apologize. I will work on these. I just need to be more random so look forward to that in the future.

The season had changed from the cold blistery winter in a more mellow spring. While the temperatures were far from ideal the wind chill was not as bad and the snow had long turned into light rain showers. Innocence had been called to her sister’s side to help her with a small issue. One that once again left Damian by himself, but this time he was alone with Damon. Damon had actually be nice enough to allow him to sit in the chair in his office as long as he was quiet. Damian was very happy at the company and with Devin not around anymore it was simply a bonus instead of protection. He stared at the ceiling and looked at the shapes the design made.
Damon had once again buried in work. It seemed during the turn of the season, mainly after winter and summer, after the weather did the most damage, he had to deal with complaints and other things from the people of Lee and while he wanted to be nice and help reading the similar letters when he could be doing something more entertaining like hanging with Damian made him crazy. He sighed, at least it was raining. The rain had a nice calming effect to it, the spring rain did anyways. Summer rain had a bad habit of being a bit to loud and or bring a storm in. When he was not busy he did not mind it but it was very difficult to write letters when Innocence had a death grip on him.
Damian hearing the rain looked at Damon and saw he was still busy. He knew Innocence was traveling to see Enigma but… He was a bit worried and the clouds made it difficult to be able to tell if his mother was going to make it back in time for the sun to rise and if father was going to not worry. As he long ago learned his father was a big worry wart and while he tried to remain calm seeing his father worry made him worry too. Just then he saw a bright flash which confused him. Blinking he looked over his shoulder. He almost jumped out of skin when he heard a rumble of thunder. Closing the window he ran over to Damon and sat in his lap burying his face in Damon’s chest while clinging to his shirt. Damon looked down and rolled his eyes.
Using his free hand he wrapped an arm around his shoulders and continued to write reply letters. After a few moments a few doors could be heard opening and then shuffling of feet. Damon looked at his door expecting either a maid or Rhys to open the door but when he saw Innocence he tiled his head. Innocence was soaking wet, had a panicked look on her face, and just stood in the doorway until another flash flickered causing her to mouse her way over to Damon. She got on her knees and buried her face in his side. Damon at this point just laughed. Putting down the quill he wrapped his other arm around her shoulders. Damian unburied his face to see his mother’s golden hair and used one of his hands to grab her wet sleeve.
Innocence looked up at saw Damian was looking down at her with a similar look she had on her face. Pausing for a moment she gave a weak smile and moved from Damon’s side and hugged Damian who buried his face in Damon’s chest again. Damon took the chance to unwrap his hand from Innocence’s shoulders and pick up some of her wet hair. “What happened to you?” Innocence looked up at him and pouted, “Well it was only soft rain when I left Tiamorre and then suddenly it started to pour… By the time I got Red Hare in his stable and got inside it started to get worse…” Damon gave her an amused look before standing from his chair.
Placing Damian on the desk he took his jacket off and gave it to Innocence before picking Damian up again and moving to the sofa near the fireplace. Innocence placed her arms through the jacket’s arms and then followed closely behind Damon and Damian. She waited for the two of them to get in a comfortable position before sitting next to Damon and burying her face in his shoulder. Damon knew he should be working but he was thankful for the fear of storms these two shared. It was funny… When alone they freaked out but when they had someone with them they would toughen up but if it was him they would just grip on him. Not that he was complaining.
Taking a deep breath he just sunk deeper in the sofa while keeping one hand wrapped around Damian’s waist and his other around Innocence’s waist. He noticed the lightning was not as bright and the thunder was calming down. He however figured he would take advantage of his little relaxation period. As the storm calmed he noticed that Damian and Innocence both relaxed so they were not as tense. After a moment longer he noticed they both had a rhythmatic breathing which meant they were probably asleep. Taking a look at the wall he felt his eyes droop. He then rolled his eyes and closed them, he deserved some sleep… With a slight grin he felt himself falling asleep…
~~~
Damon jolted slightly as he woke. He looked around and remember what had happened. He yawned and relaxed for a moment. His jolt woke Damian up who unburied his face and looked at Damon with a confused look, “What is wrong daddy?” Damon finished his second yawn and grinned, “Oh nothing, sorry about that.” Damian tilted his head before resting his head on Damon’s shoulder. He then looked down at Innocence who was still sleeping. Damon followed Damian’s glance in curiosity. He was surprised she was not awake yet. Normally she woke up the earliest to make trouble for everyone. It was like the nightly ritual…
Shaking her softly he tried to wake her up, after a few shakes she did her own surprised jolt and sat up. Looking around she rubbed her head. Damon noticed her face looked flushed and she looked rather… Run down? She looked like she was sick or something… He went to ask her what was wrong but she sneezed into her arm before he could ask. That was when Damian started to get worried, “Mommy? Are you ok?” Innocence sniffling nodded her head slowly. “Yes just caught a cold.” Damian hearing the word started to flail so much Damon almost dropped him. Damon glared at Damian softly and Damian just looked back at him with panic. “I got mommy sick!!”
Damon gave him a look of surprise before he heard Innocence let out a string of raspy laughs. “No, sweetheart, you did not get me sick. The rain did. Ow…” Gripping her head she rubbed it for a moment before she settled on pinching the bridge of her nose. Damian looked at his mother and pouted, he did not want her to be sick… Damon took his hand and ran his hand over Innocence’s lap. He frowned the dress was still wet… He figured the jacket would have at least done something but it seemed the dress had already done the damage. Sighing he stood up, he placed Damian down on the floor and scooped Innocence up might to her surprise.
Damon then stood next to the sofa and looked at Damian who got the clue and with a well placed pounce climbed up his tall frame and wrapped his arms around Damon’s waist while holding his neck. Damon fixed his arm so it was wrapped around Damian but still was holding on Innocence. He then bent forward so Damian could take one of his hands and open the door. Walking through Damian wondered where they were going but when he saw the bathroom he understood. Reaching the bathroom he was prompted to open the door again. He then held on tighter as Damon placed his mother down and helped him to do the same. Damian looked up at Damon who was starting the bath up.
Innocence just leaned against the wall rubbing her now sore muscles. Damian frowned, he then tugged at Damon’s pants. “Can I help daddy?” Damon looked down before nodding with a grin, “Maybe you can, do you think you can get mommy a set of new clothes? Something warm possibly?” Damian thought for a moment before nodding and with a smile darted from the bathroom. He was a boy on a mission and if it helped his mother he would make sure he only came back when he had what was needed. Innocence looked with tired amusement at how happy helping her made her son. She then noticed the bath was done.
Any other time she would have either teased Damon or been embarrassed but she was to tired and sore to really care about anything at this point. Taking his jacket off she handed it to him before taking the cold damp dress off. Handing that to him she went into the bath and nearly fell over. Damon snapped out his hand and grabbed her and helped her sit down before placing his jacket on again and folding her wet dress. After a few moments Damian came into the bathroom with a pile full of clothing. “I could not find exactly what you wanted but I found some things that might… Just was not sure which one you wanted to use…”
Damon looked at the pile and gave an amused look. Innocence saw the pile and started to laugh and ended up coughing. She kept laughing through the coughs however and gasped for breath while holding her hand up. “Oh my… Do not make me laugh… So hard right now… It might kill me…” Panting she tried to get her breath back. Damian pouted, “I am sorry…” Damon just grinned and made a gesture for him to come over. Damian seeing it walked over and gave Damon the pile of clothing. Damon picked through it quickly before picking something that had decent sleeves. He then gave the rest back and Damian once again raced out of the room to place the others away.
Innocence just watched with an amused look on her still tired face. Sighing she rested against the edge of the bath and rested her chin on her hand. Damon took his hand and felt her head, it was not super warm but it was warm enough. Standing up he went and grabbed a towel. Innocence getting the hint stood up and stretched before being wrapped in a towel and placed in a hug. She let out a cough laced giggle. Damon then rubbed her dry quickly before handing her the dress Damian had been so nice to pick out. Trading the dress for the towel she put the dress on and took the towel back for her hair as Damon went to drain the tub.
Just as they were going to leave Damian appeared. He looked up at Innocence with a pout. “Do you feel better mommy?” Innocence just smiled and bent forward to pick him up before she handed him to Damon. “Oh course, I am being so well taken care off. I bet I will be well tomorrow.” Damian smiled as his mother playfully poked his nose. He then looked at his father for a moment. “What do we do now daddy?” Damon gave it thought before shrugging. “Are you hungry?” Innocence paused for a moment. She really was not hungry… Her stomach was doing flips and her throat hurt among that fact she was dizzy but the look of excitement on Damian’s face caused her to just give a soft smile.
“Famished…” Damian clapped his hands and started to bounce which caused Damon to almost drop him. “Daddy! Daddy! Lets make something for mommy!” Damon held onto Damian tighter before rolling his eyes in a playful fashion. “Alright lets go. Lead the way princess.” Innocence let out a coughing laugh at being called princess and started to lead the way. Damon followed from behind making sure that he did not drop Damian who was still bouncing in his arms. Reaching the kitchen Innocence took a seat and rested her head in her arms on the table. She kept her eyes on Damon and Damian however, she had never seen either of them cook and she was sure this was going to be amusing…
Damon grabbed a old book and flipped through the pages. After a few moments he tossed the book over his shoulder and looked at Innocence. “What type of soup do you want?” Innocence paused for a moment. Tomato or chicken works.[/b]” Damon nodded. He then looked at Damian who was sitting on the table kicking his feet in excitement. “Alright you get the tomatoes and I will get the water ready.” Damian jumping off the counter ran over to where he had seen fruits and veggies. Spotting the tomatoes he climbed up the counter and grabbed three big ones before carefully jumping down. Damon bending down grabbed the tomatoes from him and helped him back on the counter again.
After a few moments the water was boiling and Damon and Damian started to work on the tomatoes. In an explosion of action the ‘soup’ was made. Damian and Damon both were covered in it but there was enough left over to give to Innocence who ate it the best she could before saying she was full. Damon gave her an amused look before leaning forward and licking the few spots off Damian’s face. That caused him to giggle and Innocence to laugh. Damon then got a rag and washed himself off and the rest of Damian. He then looked at the mess and rolled his eyes. The chef can deal with it. As someone who never ate solid foods it was safe to say he never needed to learn how to wash dishes…
Innocence was to sick to wash them so he allowed Damian to hang onto him again while he picked Innocence up and made a run for it. He did not want to be caught in the kitchen. That way he can at least have no proof it was him. Innocence looked up at him with amusement. Damian just giggled at the fast pace. Reaching the bedroom he bent so Damian could open the door again. He then closed the door with his foot and placed Innocence on the bed where she curled up and buried her face in her pillow. Damian jumped off Damon’s shoulder and laid next to her. Damon going to the pile of clothing quickly made it less messy and then took his jacket off.
He was now technically a night and a half behind in paperwork but he had his reasons… Not to mention this was far more amusing and important to him then paperwork. Placing his jacket on a chair he laid down next to Innocence and wrapped his hands around her waist. Damian once against laying in the middle snuggled into the sandwhich he was placed in. A small smile on his face. Innocence opened one eye and saw the smiles on both males and smiled as well. Patting them both she snuggled into her embrace and son. She then whispered into Damian’s ear. “Thank you for taking care of me… I will be giving you a thank you when I feel better.”
She would probably be making him another doll or getting him some candy. Something she knew he would like. She then looked up at Damon who had a mock pout on his lips. Before he could even ask what about him she poked his nose and grinned. “I will be giving you a thank you as well.” Damon grinned and took the poking hand and gave it a soft kiss before allowing her to wrap it around Damian’s waist. He then closed his eyes. “I look forward to it.” Innocence let out a giggle cough before closing her eye and keeping her smile. “As do I…”

The weather was cold, raw, and wet. This was the reason the streets were barren and most people of all types were inside their homes keeping warm and dry. The weather however did not stop this child. At the age of four he had already learned how to dodge all those who knew him and get outside even when he was not supposed to. Damian had been told by his mother and aunt both to stay inside the castle of Lee to avoid getting sick. While he tried his very best to listen, the sound of rain was to much for the child to pass up.
He loved playing in the puddles, often he found himself going outside for puddles during a rain shower, and found himself doing something else in the course of a few minutes. It often frustrated him but at the same time he just dealt with it. Seeing it often lead him to something else that was fun. This time however he knew he would be going out to play in the puddles. Dressing himself the best he could without any help he started to sneak around the hallways. He dodged the help, he knew his mother probably got them on the alert… Just for a little puddle playing which was confusing… Oh well mother knows best but… Mother was also slightly overprotective…
So far so good… He figured his mother was in the library and father was probably busy working… Which meant it would be easier but he had to worry about Uncle Rhys… He had caught him last time. Aunt Sarah often allowed him to do what he wanted, unless it was obviously dangerous, but if anyone hinted her in on everything she could be just as bad as anyone else… While Lee had its obstacles it was no Tiamorre where Aunt Whisper, Aunt Enigma, and Uncle Walter all were keeping an eye on him and often Satisfaction would go all motherly on him and follow the rules. As far as he could tell Mercy and Brishen were the only ones on his side.
Reaching the large doors he took one last look before making a break for it. As he ran outside he felt the downpour of rain soak his hair while it also drench his jacket and pants. He looked around through his now limp bangs and ran for the first puddle he had seen. He then noticed as time went on the puddles kept growing in size and were now spotting around the whole grounds. Running around at top speed he found himself jumping in each puddle. After a short time he started to laugh and let loose not worried about being caught at this point. He was having to much fun to notice anything.
While Damian was playing in the puddles Innocence was reading a book. She of course was in the library. She however had no idea what she was reading exactly. The words were not in a language she understood but the pictures that were sporadically shown was enough to keep her interest. That was until she heard a familiar laughter. Giving a blank look to the wall she opened the library door to see if her son was running through the hallways again. After a moment of hearing his laugher again she frowned.
Normally she would laugh along with him but something told her he was not going to be laughing much longer if he was outside… She had told him to stay inside yet she could give a wild guess that he did not listen… He was getting craftier as he aged… Opening the window to the library she indeed saw her son playing outside. She rolled her eyes before yelling out the window. “Damian! What are you doing?!” Hearing his mother’s voice caused him to freeze. He looked up to see his mother sticking her body out the window and a frown was on her face.
He gave a sheepish smile before running off to go around the building and away from sight. Innocence seeing the action started yelling for him to get his ass back inside but he ignored her and the yelling got Damon’s attention. Opening the door to the library he noticed Innocence was yelling out the window. Sneaking up behind her he looked over her shoulder but could not see who she was yelling at. “… I know the boredom makes you crazy but… I think you just hit a new level…” Innocence surprised at his sudden appearance almost fell out the window.
Damon grabbed her and pulled her inside with his own cheesy grin. “Sorry…” Innocence just gave him a slightly surprised glare and a playful slap to the chest before darting from his embrace to go chase her son. Damon closed the window with a confused look on his face. Waiting a moment he shook his head and left the library figuring the weather was just driving everyone crazy. Going back into his study he did not notice Innocence chasing her son past the window to his work room.
Innocence was not going to be beaten by her son, Enigma maybe, Damon maybe, Rob maybe, Mary and Whisper maybe… Hell even Rhys and Walter but her own son was one to many years to young to defeat her. Chasing after him she saw him trip and land head first into a puddle. Pausing she walked up from behind him and waited for him to sit up. When he did he started to wail at his now throbbing knee. Innocence ran over to his side with a look of worry. She then bent forward and picked him up ignoring her dress getting mud all over it. Taking him inside she sat him down in a chair and took a look at his bleeding knee.
“Damian…” Damian looked at his mother through unshed tears. “Yes mommy?” Innocence glared at him softly for a moment before giving him a hug and standing. “Stay there… I will get you something for your knee…” Damian kicked his one good leg and waited for his mother to come back. Damon who had been slightly paranoid over the quiet house decided to find the demons before they found him, he instead found Damian sitting on a chair, covered in mud, soaking wet, and with blood running down his leg. He froze for a moment before rushing over to the boy’s side and picking him up.
“Oh my god are you ok?!” Damian looked up at Damon with a confused look on his face. “Yes?” It was more of a question seeing his leg did feel pretty badly… He was watching Damon’s reaction and started to feel a bit of panic. Innocence who was coming back with a bowl of water, bandages, and a change of clothes came back to see Damian wrapped in Damon’s jacket and Damian was sitting in his lap with a panicked look on his face. She dared a look at Damon and held back a laugh. Damon looked just as freaked out.
“I see you found my mud child… Care to give him back?” Damon looked up at her with the freaked out look, “Did you see his knee?!” Innocence gave him a blank look, “Last time I checked he had two of them… One of them is bleeding… So yes…” Damon gave her a slight glare, “Sarcasm is not needed…” Innocence laughed at that, “Well excuse me, it is a skinned knee not a life threatening disease darling, so it would be wise not to treat it like such.” Damian looked at his mother was a panicked look on his face, “I am dying?!” Innocence ruffled her son’s head before glaring at Damon.
“Of course not… You just took some skin off you knee and it is bleeding to heal. You will be fine as long as you listen to me next time I warn you about staying inside.” Damian looked at his mother while holding back tears. “Are you sure? My leg really hurts and… Daddy seems really worried…” Innocence rolled her eyes, “That is cause Daddy is a worry wart.” Damon snorted at being called a worry wart but it was obvious he was still worried. Innocence peeled the jacket back so she could see his knee she cleaned the small cut and wrapped a bit of bandage around his knee.
She then gave Damon the spare clothing along with a teasing grin. “I need to change… Seeing you fit the mother role so well can you change him for me?” Damon gave her a look before Damian suddenly piped up. “I- … I-… ACHOO!” This got a reaction out of Innocence. “Oh my god you got a cold!” Dropping to her knees she hugged her son who was looking up at Damon who looked just as alarmed. “Am I dying n-… n-… ACHOO!” He scrunched up his nose as he felt another sneeze crawling up his throat and tickle his nose.
Innocence placed her cheek on his and saw he had a slight temperature. “No… You have a cold but… Never play in puddles again do you hear me!” Damian started to tear up slightly at the thought of never playing in puddles again but his head was beginning to throb and he was getting cold and at this rate a cold wet puddle was not something he wanted… Nodding his head slowly he felt himself being hugged by two sets of arms which suddenly warmed him up. Tucking his head in his mother’s neck he held back the sneeze he felt and just gripped onto his mother’s wet dress.
Innocence then let go and allowed Damon to placed Damian in a larger embrace. “I need to take a bath… And change, can you watch him for me while I do that?” Damon went to nod his head but Damian reached out for his mother, “I wanna… ACHOO… Bath too…” Innocence looked at him before smiling, she figured he was cold… She looked at Damon who shrugged, “Do you want to take a bath with him?” Innocence thought for a moment before picking Damian up. “Sure why not. Although I figure it would make more sense for you to bath with him now that he is older.”
Damian gripped onto his mother and waited a moment before overcoming a sneeze long enough to answer the current question, “Group bath please?” Innocence gave her son a look of surprise and then pointed at Damon with a blush paired with a flustered pout while he was trying to hide a grin, “Since when does he want a group bath! Since when has he been your partner in crime!?” Damon just continued to hide his obvious grin, “Oh my who sounds paranoid now… Well I suppose the kid got a point.” Innocence glared at him for a moment.
Innocence then snorted lightly, “Oh of course he does. When he wants to use your ties for Red Hare it is a bad idea, when he wants to use the help as jumping hurdles it is a bad idea, when he wants to draw over your work with doodles it is a bad idea but when he wants a group bath, he finally struck gold…” Damon stood up and stretched slightly before he let the grin explode across his face. “The kid is a genius…” Rolling her eyes she hit his chest lightly with her free hand and started towards the bathroom. Damon just grabbed his jacket and the clean clothes.
He made a pit stop at his room to place the jacket down and grab a set of clean clothes for himself. Right about now a bath would be nice, granted it was wet, it would be warm at least. He hated the raw weather like this… He also hated most of winter. Reaching the bathroom he came just after Damian and Innocence both sat in the warm water. Damian was sitting on his mother’s lap to tired to really do anything. He had tears in his eyes from his leg stringing at the water but he was happy to be warm. Damon snorted before giving a mocking pout. “Does this mean I am not needed?” Innocence just rolled her eyes again.
“By all means, I want to get the mud out of his hair, if you are willing to help please do… He has a vice grip on my waist…” Damon by the time she finish the wordy invite had already stripped down and entered the water. He looked at Damian who had a slightly red nose and he did look sick. Hr reached for the boy’s hands and unlatched them before he placed Damian in his lap. He plugging his nose and dunked his head underwater while Innocence combed her fingers through his hair for a few seconds. Getting most of the mud out she signaled for Damon to bring Damian back up.
Damian taking a breath of air sniffled before his eyes started to water up. He was warm but his throat was now getting sore making it hard to swallow and he was having trouble breathing… Innocence noticed he looked like he was about to cry and brought herself to his level. “What is wrong Damian?” Damian just sat in Damon’s lap looking like he was about start crying. Damon frowned slightly before getting Damian attention. “If you cheer up I will make sure all my letters for tonight get your stamp of approval… Damian allowed a small smile to form on his face. Innocence looked up at him with an amused look but stayed quiet.
Damian looked at his mother before sniffling again. “Can I?” Innocence grinned, “Well of course you can silly. Just dry off and get dressed first, the help might be confused to a small wet man running around naked giving stamps of approval.” Damon snorted getting him a curious look from Damian who allowed his mother yes be enough to calm him down. “Well it would not be the worst thing he has done right?” Innocence sat straight and touched a hand to her chin, “No I suppose not… Still, do you really want the list to grow?” Damon rolled his eyes, “Touche… Alright fine. I suppose meeting is adjourn?”
It was Innocence’s turn to roll her eyes. “This has to be the most awkward meeting I have ever had…” As she went to grab Damian so he could be dried off and dressed Damon felt his grin come back, “Oh on the contrary, this was one of the best meetings ever.” Innocence gave him a look that was a cross between amusement and embarrassment. He just shot her a grin, Innocence taking Damian stood up and walked over to where the towels were. Placing Damian down she grabbed a towel and wrapped it around his shoulders before placing him in a hug.
Damian gave a stuffy giggle at the hug. Damon then leaned over the edge of the bath and pouted. “Aw no fair… Where is my hug?” Innocence looked over her son’s shoulder to give him a blank look. Damon turned his pout into a grin and he shrugged, “Well I tried…” Innocence just rolled her eyes and grabbed a towel for herself in which she wrapped it around her body and picked Damian up. Damon getting the hint stood up and grabbed the last towel and place it around his hips before picking all the fallen clothing off the floor. Draining the bath he caught up to the two after taking a few long strides.
Innocence making her way to his room placed her son on the bed. She then went into the closet to grab one of her extra dresses. Not bothering with the bandages her sister was so glad to force on her she just threw the dress over her shoulders and went to where her son was. Damon had already placed a pair of clean pants on and had started to help Damian who was asking which designs would be the best for his ‘stamps’ of approval. “The kitty or the bunny?” Damon blinked before giving it thought, “Kitty, it seems the kitty is a big hit.”
Damian seemed happy at that comment and Innocence sat next to Damian who leaned over and wrapped his hands around her waist. Damon finished placing his pants on and figured the shirt could wait till after the hug. Innocence rested her hand on his head and ruffled his hair and looked at Damon who looked tired. She had no clue how late it was… The rain was not making it any easier. Damian let out a yawn before giving a few coughs. Innocence looked down at him with a worried look. Making him sit up she grabbed his shirt and tugged it carefully over his head before placing him in her lap where she hugged him to her body like a doll.
Damian looked up at her before reaching out for Damon. Innocence laughed at the look on his face before allowing Damian to jump from her lap and jump onto Damon who caught him. Damian pressed his cheek again Damon’s while wrapping his arms around his neck. Damon looked surprised for a moment before wrapping his arms around the boys waist and standing up before sitting down next to Innocence who just rested her head against his shoulder. Damian then looked up, “… Daddy I am tired… Can I give my stamp of approval tomorrow if I cannot do it tonight?”
Damon met his look and smirked, “Oh of course you can.” Damian smiled before sneezing which caused Innocence to laugh at the fact it made Damian so happy to help even though he was sick. Damian giggled before he crawled from Damon’s lap to the middle of the bed where he made like a cat and spun around a few times before falling onto the bed. Both Innocence and Damon watched as he slowly began to fall asleep. When his pant like breathing turned into a rhythm Innocence went to stand but Damon grabbed her waist and made her fall onto his lap. She went to glare at him but she got a shiver down her spine instead when he nuzzled his nose into her neck.
Swatting at him she tried to get up, “Daaaamon let me go…” She was trying to stay quiet but she wanted to be free too… Damon just stopped nuzzling her neck and sent her a devilish grin. “Oh please, what do I have to do around here to get some love?” Innocence was slightly surprised as the question and was seriously thinking of answering but was stopped when he started to kiss her exposed shoulder. She giggled but stopped and swatted him again. “Stop it!” He gave her a mock frown and she stood up. She went to brush herself off but Damon stood up and went to grab her again.
His mocking frown melted into another devilish grin, “Oh come on… Do I have to get sick again? Getting sick seems to get your attention.” Innocence went to answer him again but he started to reach for her waist. She then started to back away with a serious expression that was quickly melting into one of amusement. As he went to grab her she darted away from him and after getting a safe distance away turned towards him again. “No come on, maybe later.” Damon grinned and reached for her again. She darted away but as she went to turn back and tell him to knock it off she did not expect him to keep following.
This allowed him to wrap his arms around her waist and pick her up. “Ah put me down!” Damon just chuckled and placed her on the bed next to Damian who was still sound asleep. “Ok fine have it your way.” He still had a grin on his face. She sent him a look of paranoia. He however just pretended to be finish, laying down next to her and closing his eyes. Innocence stared at him for a few minutes before figuring he was seriously asleep. After a moment she felt something crawling up her leg. Rolling her eyes she allowed the crawling to continue until it stopped at her ribs and started to tickle. She flailed and went to laugh but held it in.
Damon grinned at the reaction and pulled his hand back. Getting a grip she turned her head towards him and glared, he just continued grinning. “What? I cannot pet my kitten?” She continued to glare at him before he pouted in a mocking manner. Rolling her eyes one last time she grabbing Damian and once again placed him on Damon’s chest. She then turned so she could wrap her arm around her son’s back, rest her head on Damon’s shoulder, and wrap her leg around his. She then mocked a purring noise. “ Kitten is pleased now go to sleep. Kitten needs her sleep so she can hunt you a present later…” Damon grinned, “Woof woof.”
Innocence laughed at his answer to her getting him a gift. She waited a moment before giving sleep another try. After a few minutes of calm breathing between the two males she decided it was safe to try to go to sleep herself. She was glad Damon had been here to help, she probably would have freaked out otherwise. She was just about to slip into a sleep when she felt a hand make itself at home on her ass… She just grinned and kept her eyes closed. Some habits died hard…

A/N:: Ok so I suppose I could have done better but you know for all I have been through these past four days it could have been worse. Not to mention I think while they are slightly out of character it still is cute and sweet. For my bad apology I would like to apologize again but with another story that I dreamed up last night. Now I had a shit load of dreams and I cannot remember them all but this one fits as a mini story attached to the end of this seeing it is the same three. Oh but this one had mild smut in it so if you hate smut do not read like between where I warn you.. It is nothing bad but it is needed. Alright without further ado my dream apology mini story!!!
~~~
It was about two hours before day light. Damian who had been playing for most of the night was now very tired. He had found his mother and after asking her and Damon to take him to bed he ended up being picked up as Damon was still working. Damian was now sitting on his mother’s lap like a doll. She had her arms snuggly wrapped around his waist and her chin resting on his shoulder. Both of them were sitting on a chair that was in Damon’s workplace. The two were watching with tired expressions as he started to finish up some last moment things.
Damian had wanted to go to sleep right away but he wanted to fall asleep with mommy and daddy. So he settled on resting on his mother in her warm embrace. After another fifteen minutes he ended up falling asleep. Ten minutes later Damon had finally finished. He went to look up and tell the two who had been waiting that they could go to sleep now but he just smirked as both of them sitting in a chair had their eyes closed. Carefully getting up he went over to the two sleeping darkling and picked up Innocence, careful not to wake either of them.
Recently they had been placing Damian in another room to teach him while he was still young, how to sleep by himself. While it was fairly difficult it was beginning to work. Innocence in the beginning had not wanted Damian to turn into Mercy but after the first night she had found herself feeling badly and ended up breaking down so she could get some sleep. Damian was not exactly against the idea, he was fine sleeping alone. That was however if he was not sad, injured, sick, or had a bad dream. Damon paused for a moment… Did Innocence want to bring Damian or not?
He gently shook her awake, when she woke up she looked around and saw they were in the hallway. She gave him a curious look, he then looked down and pointed his head in Damian’s direction. Noticing he was asleep on her stomach she thought for a moment before sighing. He was already asleep he might as well sleep alone right? She pointed to her old room seeing that was another room he was used too. Walking he carefully opened the door and placed Innocence on the ground.
She held onto Damian for a moment longer before she pulled back the blankets and placed him on the bed before tucked him in. She looked at his sleeping form for a minute before dragging herself away. She knew it was better if he got used to sleeping alone but… She was so used to having him nearby and that was after so many years with Mercy. Technically she did have Damon but she was used to them both being there… Pouting she felt herself being lead to the door. She just sighed and started towards Damon’s room. At least it was down the hall… Not like it was in a different hall or something.
She was half way down the hallway when Damon wrapped his arms around her waist and nuzzled his nose in her neck. Smirking she wrapped an arm around his neck and sighed. She knew what he was doing but… Her mind was still elsewhere and no matter what he did he would not take her mind off… Damian… She had it in her mind he would not be able to do anything but suddenly he started to nip her neck and moved one of his hands to the collar of her dress and tugged it lightly. She then felt him push against her and start her walking to the bedroom again. She felt herself smirk well maybe she could get her mind taken off her son… At least for a little while.
(Alright stop reading all ye with virgin eyes) By the time they got into the room Innocence had already gotten his shirt unbuttoned which was hanging off his right shoulder and he had gotten the bandages around her hips off. Damon closed the door with his foot and began taking her dress off. After getting it off he tossed it over his shoulders and then shrugged his shirt off before causing Innocence to fall on the bed, him following her. Grabbing the bandages that were wrapped around her chest he started to tug them off while she began to tug off his pants. Finally getting the second round of bandages off he dipped down and started to kiss and suck at her collarbone.
Innocence then felt her body turn to jelly and moaned. Damon grinning against her skin, unbuttoned his pants, and tossed them as well. He then went down a bit lower and left a string of kissed from her collarbone down to her stomach. After a moment he stopped in order to turn on his back taking her with him so she could sit on top of him. She fixed her hair so it was over her shoulders. Just as she went to start grinding her hips she heard a knock on the door and her son’s voice trembling voice, “Mommy… Daddy? …” (Okay you can look again =B)
Freezing she looked down at Damon who had the same frozen expression on his face. After a moment another string of knocks hit the door and Innocence jumped up before she started looking for her dress. Finding it she tore it over her head and went to the door. Opening it slightly she saw her son holding the dolls she had made awhile ago and his face had tears stains on his cheeks with more tears unshed in his eyes. She then frowned, getting on her knees she looked at him.
“Aw… Damian what is wrong?” Damian sniffled before rubbing his sleeve on his cheek. “I had a bad dream…” Innocence smiled softly before opening the door wider and wrapping her arms around him. Being placed in a big hug caused him to bury his face in his mother’s neck and started to cry. Innocence pulled away when she felt the tears. She gave him a soft frown, she then looked over her shoulder to see Damon was laying on the bed with his legs crossed and he was wearing his pants. She sighed, she felt badly cause she was leaving Damon hanging but Damian was so upset…
Picking him up she closed the door, walking to the edge of the bed she kept Damian on her hip, “Damon… Can he-” Before she could finish her question Damon sat up and he reached for Damian. Innocence leaned forward and handed Damian to him. Placing Damian on his chest he looked at the small boy who stared back. Damon taking his thumb gently rubbed Damian’s cheeks dry and wrapped his arms around the small boy who buried his head in Damon’s shoulder. Innocence smiled and laid next to the two of them. Damian then lifted his head and looked at Damon before looking at Innocence. “Sorry…” Innocence looked surprised.
“Why are you sorry?” Damian pouted softly, “Cause I know you want me to get used to sleeping alone… Aunt Enigma told me that Mercy is to old to be sleeping with anyone to help him sleep and it would be good for me to learn early and I tried but…” Innocence just rolled her eyes, leave it to her sister to try to help her out and relapse into her cold teacher mode. “Well maybe I can get Mercy to sleep over and the two of you can help each other? You have no need to be sorry silly. You are about seven years younger then Mercy anyways.” Damian looked at his mother before looking at his father with a curious look. “So I can stay?”
Damon rolled his eyes, “Of course.” Damian smiled, let go of his plushies, and wrapped his arms around Damon’s neck which caused Damon to smirk. Innocence just ruffled Damian’s hair before giving Damon a kiss on his temple. She then sighed, she had tried and it seemed Damian knew about it… One more night could not hurt. She then reached for the dropped dolls and grinned, they were quite worn at this time but all things considered they still looked pretty good. Bringing them to her nose she giggled. They still smelled good too. Damian turning his head saw his mother with his dolls and smiled.
Innocence noticed Damian was looking at her and she held out the dolls. Damian just buried his face in Damon’s neck again. That caused Innocence to laugh and put the dolls next to Damon’s head. “Well I suppose you do not need these if you have the real ones.” Damon just rolled his eyes. Damian then peeked at his mother, “Can Mercy sleep over tomorrow?” Innocence thought for a moment, “Sure, I am sure Enigma will enjoy having her bed to herself again. Plus the two of you have not seen each other in awhile. Mercy will be happy to hang with you again.” Damian smiled and sat up on Damon’s stomach after Damon dropped his hug around Damian’s waist.
Damian then reached out for his mother who leaned over and gave him a hug and a cluster of kisses over his face. He just giggled and wrapped his arms around her neck happy to have the both of them in the same room again. Innocence then picked him up and placed Damian back in her lap. He rested his head on her chest and after a moment yawned. Damon tilted his head and poked his finger softly into Damian’s nose. “You sleep now.” Damian pouted and went to complain but Innocence bent forward and blew a raspberry on his cheek causing him to laugh.
Damon grinned but then spoke again. “Seriously though, you need to get some sleep so you can cause trouble tomorrow.” Damian gave it thought for a moment before nodding. He crawled from his mother’s lap and laid down next to Damon. Innocence grinned softly before laying down next to both of them. She wrapped her arms around Damian who wrapped his arms around his dolls. Damon then wrapped his arms around both of them. He however stayed awake, he waited for Damian to drift off before grinning.
He had been teased so many times about this he figure he might as well try to see what kind of reaction he could get. From what he had learned everything she used to get reaction often embarrassed her due to the fact if it embarrassed him she never would guess he would use the same stuff, which caught her off guard and got him a similar reaction. He used his hand that was resting on her waist to shake her awake softly. She opened her eyes giving him a confused but curious look.
“Yes?” Damon waited a moment before rolling his eyes to the ceiling and then shrugged softly. “Well it is nothing important but you know… If Damian wants a bed buddy you could always help me ‘find’ one if you catch my drift.” Innocence was half asleep and confused. So much so she almost missed the drift but when she indeed caught it her face exploded in redness and heat. Damon chuckled softly at the reaction. She then used her leg and kicked him softly.
She then rolled her eyes pushing down her blush, “But it seems hardly like a good idea if you think about it, to have your drift to be true he would need to leave us alone and then he would not need a roommate.” Damon paused before he pouted, he had been beaten… He then saw her grin as she looked at him. “What?” She felt her grin grow and she just giggled softly before closing her eyes. “Oh nothing.” He narrowed his eyes and expected her to do something but after a few moment it seemed she was actually asleep.
He then closed his eyes and figured it was safe to fall asleep. That was before Innocence opened one of her eyes and saw his eyes were closed. That was when she pressed Damian closer into Damon’s side and wrapped her legs around one of his and with a grin closed her eyes. Damian feeling the slight shift just snuggled deeper into his father’s chest and enjoyed the tightening of his mother’s embrace. A small smile on his face, while he knew tomorrow his brother like friend would be sleeping next to him he could at least enjoy this last night the best he can. With one last snuggle he fell into a deep sleep followed by his two competitive parents.

I actually got all the presents worked out I just got to say… That was a pain to do but lets just say this story will be amusing to read. I hope you all enjoy it. Of course like always make sure you do not eat or drink, cause I hate to tell you while eggnog may be in the season… When it is still between your keyboards in summer you might rethink how awesome eggnog is…
Now that is what I call a Christmas cheer aheh… Anyways just to let you know this story is a two part story but I will be nice and put both parts together. The beginning is needed to keep the second and most important part of the story from being rushed and driving me further into that white padded room I call Narnia… Anyways I will list the presents, and the list I made to keep my from getting confused in the ending A/N just so people can get a quick summery of what everyone got encase you missed something. To keep me from getting overwhelmed most of the children will not appear in the first half. Alright with all of that listed and said…
Without further ado…
ONWARD!
---
The snow was falling heavily. The wind was blowing ever so slightly making the outside temperature drop even further. However the members of Lee were snug inside the castle with every possible window closed and ever fireplace kept crackling with a lively fire. This was a special day however; according to Walter it was Christmas Eve, while he had books… It was Rhys who had to explain it further due to Walter not having his books with him. While Innocence normally stayed at Lee, seeing it was in the holiday cheer and because of a slight problem, all the main people of Tiamorre would be bunking at Lee for the time being.
Due to a slight mishap it seemed Lee would finally would be able to repay Tiamorre for all the times they had slept over. Innocence was of course very happy have everyone together but due to a little misunderstanding Enigma was thinking about sleeping outside, even as much as she hated the cold, she hated looking at Damon’s smug smirk. It had not been her fault that someone had been stupid enough to try to cook a Christmas dinner… She should have known the little maids would have listened to every one of Walter’s bloody words on this damned holiday and tried to cook… She had a chef for a reason, not that she ever really needed him but… It was to keep stupid shit like this from happening.
Whisper was probably the most stressed, while her room had not exactly been affected, she rarely left her room and she wanted to go back… She had been gripping onto Enigma like a child and when she reached Lee she had tore Innocence from Damon and hugged her instead. Knowing Enigma was not exactly the nurturing type and that was for young children she was almost the same age… Innocence just giggled and Damon frowned, his lap was now cold. Crossing his legs he caught Enigma’s eyes in his own and gave another sly grin, which caused her to growl slightly.
Walter watched the whole thing amused. He knew the damage was not bad but when they got home he would be in for it… He then heard a knock at the door. He was practically programmed to open doors, so he went to stand but Damon grabbed his attention. “Relax, consider it a vacation.” Walter gave him a surprised look before smiling. Sitting back down, Enigma rolled her eyes as she was sent to open the door instead. When she opened it she was surprised to see her uncle. She narrowed her eyes and looked around but did not see Vivi. She then gave him a surprised look, “You broke free? Oh my god did you kill her?!”
Rob gave her an amused laugh before stepping into the castle. “Oh no, she is sick as a hound and wanted her old friend to stay with her, saying I knew nothing about treating a sick woman. So I heard you guys were having a party.” Enigma closed the door and led her uncle to the room where everyone had been relaxing. “Oh no… Not a party really but…” Innocence saw her uncle and held back a squeak. “Yay! You made it!” Enigma rose a brow, “You told him?” Innocence giggled, “Well duh, I heard aunt was sick and we were having a party so…” Enigma just playfully rolled her eyes before going to sit down.
Rob followed and took another seat. He then looked at the three men, “I have something I want to talk to you all about… Nothing serious just a little man to man alright?” Walter tilted his head ever so slightly but nodded. Damon shrugged, “Yeah sure.” Rhys just nodded his head slowly as he read over the book of lyrics he had found. Rob getting a positive answer from each just relaxed against the chair he was sharing with Enigma and Walter. “So… Are you all going to celebrate Christmas?” Half of the room gave curious looks but Enigma gave a glare. “Do not mention that holiday…”
Rob gave his niece a grin before shrugging, “Well I mean Secret Santa would be fun right?” Enigma rolled her eyes, “Yeah sure… Please explain what this Secret Santa is? I personally think this holiday is satanic… I mean his name is practically an acronym for Satan… Walter already explained it…” Walter had to cover his mouth to keep a laugh from erupting from his lips. He had never thought of Santa like that, it worked… Enigma sent a cool glare at Walter who froze. Rob just grinned, “My god you have him whipped.” Innocence giggled, “I thought you knew… The men who marry a Tiamorre woman are always whipped.” Damon went to protest but Innocence just sent him a look that shut him up. Innocence then giggled, “I rest my case.”
Rob sighed with an amused smile, “I suppose that is true… Shame it is not the same for the men… I am more whipped then a jar of cool whip…” He got a few strange glances at that comparison but he just continued to grin. Enigma then yawned, “Well nice seeing you uncle but I must get to sleep…” Innocence grinned at her sister and then looked down at Whisper was already asleep at her waist. All three women left the room, Innocence leading them to their temporary rooms. With the three women gone Rob felt his grin grow. “Well I take it seeing Walter told the girls about it… I only need to tell the pretty boy about game of Secret Santa.”
Walter and Rhys both looked at Damon who was fighting back a slight blush at being called a pretty boy, “I heard enough of what Secret Santa is thank you… Are you seriously suggesting we do such a thing? I doubt all of us have gifts…” Rob went to say something but then just grinned. Damon gave Rob a strange look, “Well I suppose that might be a bit difficult but I am sure that you all have something that someone would like. Trust me this will be fun…” Damon did not lose his look but nodded slowly. It was quiet for a few moments after Rob stopped speaking. Suddenly Rob shifted and placed his elbows on his knees, folded his hands, and rested his chin on them with a grin on his lips.
“I wanted to talk to you all… I just wanted to make sure the girls were gone, it would be no fun it they are in the room…” That got everyone’s attention. Walter gave a slightly worried look that was shared with Damon but Rhys just gave a blank expression. Rob tilted his head, “I actually only need to talk to you two… Rhys you can continue to read.” Rhys getting his cue started to once again ignore the group. Being singled out however caused Damon and Walter to become more worried. Rob was silent for a moment before his locked eyes with both men for a moment, “Do you know the greatness of the pick up line?”
Walter blinked quickly in confusion, “As in the pick up lines?” Rob looked at him and nodded his head. “Sort of… I got a few for you two…” Damon made a face, “Uh… I thought pick up lines were used the first time around…” Rob turned his head and gave a serious glare, “Are you saying you already made it with my youngest niece?” Damon went to say something but the look on Rob’s face just made him freeze with his mouth agape. Rob seeing the reaction grinned, he knew that he had already done it, hell he had until recently thought the young boy was his son… Damon was so amusing to tease…
No wonder Innocence picked him; among the obvious things he had no interest in really knowing about. “Well then… Shall I continue?” Damon just slowly nodded his head. Getting another amusing reaction Rob’s glare melted into an amused one. “Alright let me see… Have either of you tried this one?” He waited a moment before continuing, “Girl is your Gillette cause you are the best a man can get.” After a moment of getting two blank looks he gave an amused look. “What?” Damon rose a brow, “… Gillette is a type of deer right?” Walter was wracking his brain, the name was familiar but he could not place it.
Rob rolled his eyes and Rhys started to chuckle form behind his book. “No it is a type of razor.” Damon this time asked another question, “Are you saying that people use to name their razor’s like they name children? What the hell was going on back then…” Walter was resting his head in his hand, he remembered hearing about that from an old friend and had the same reaction. He figured if Damon asked all the questions he could get the answers. After a moment Rob just chuckled, “Alright never mind that one how about…” He had gotten such amusing reactions from such a tame pick up line… What happened if he made it less then tame…
He waited a moment before he started to just list them not giving either men a chance to ask questions or recover, “That outfit would look great in a crumpled heap next to my bed, That shirt's very becoming on you. If I were on you, I'd be coming too, There are 265 bones in the human body. How would you like one more, Sit on my lap and we'll get things straight between us, Pardon me, but are you a screamer or a moaner, Picture this, you, me, bubble baths, and a bottle of champagne… He paused and to catch reactions and he fought the urge to fall of the couch laughing. Damon looked like his head was about to explode and Walter looked like he was going to faint.
Rhys on the other hand had long ago dropped his book and was on the floor thrashing, as he was laughing so hard he fell off the couch he had been reading on. He was screaming for it to stop, he needed to breath. Rob gave him an amused smirk before taking a moment. “Hmmm… f**k me if I am wrong, but you want to screw me, don't you? That is a personal favorite of mine…” Damon unfroze and pointed at Rob, “I know that one!” He then covered his mouth with the pointing hand. Rob laughed, “Oh I see Innocence used that one already. Good girl… Pfft…” He then broke out laughing chiming in with Rhys who was still trying to catch his breath of the reactions and corny pick up lines.
Innocence and Enigma had both woke up at the sound of laughter. Both had heard Rob ask for some man to man time but… The laughter was strange… Whisper was sound asleep clutching Damian who was also asleep. That allowed both woman to look at each other before sneaking behind the couch and listen in to most of the pick up lines and Rhys screaming laughter. Innocence grinned; she had never heard him laugh that hard before… She then heard Damon announce she had used one of the lines before and waited for her uncle’s reaction. Hearing him call her a good girl she looked at her sister who with a small smirk nodded. Innocence then stood and leaned herself over her uncle’s shoulder. “Oh uncle I would not call me a good girl, it gives me an ego…”
Rob fought the urge to jump and fall to the floor. Enigma then leaned over his other shoulder and laughed, “Not to mention, you forgot the best line ever…” Both women waited a moment before chiming in together, “Fancy a f**k?” Rob waited a moment before laughing. “Yes I suppose I did forget that one.” Damon looked away and with a slight mutter said something that caused Rhys to laugh harder, “She used that one too… Why do I feel so cheap?” Innocence grinned, she walked slowly over to him before straddling his waist causing him to look at her in surprise.
She then leaned over so she could whisper loudly in his ear, “Cheap is such a bad word… Toy is so much more fun…” She then licked his ear causing him to jump and shudder. Rob joined in with Rhys at laughing at Innocence and Damon. Rhys then allowed a few loud and long laughs to erupt before he creased laughing and moving, Innocence looked at him and frowned, “Oh no I think you killed him, who knew it was possible…” Damon looked over at his brother before Innocence got off his lap. Enigma rolled her eyes and stood straight before sitting between her uncle and Walter.
Innocence however walked over to Rhys who was motionless. She bent forward and poked his cheek twice. She then looked around, she found a quill and moved him so she could mark his face up. Sitting on his chest she leaned in and started with an outline of a mustache, she then worked on his chin and cheeks making an outline of a beard. Damon watched with an amused grin, when Innocence finished she stood and bowed, “I now introduce… Santa Claws.” Rob laughed, “Claus honey, but good job… I wonder how lon-” Rhys now waking from his laughing coma rubbed his face.
“I am not stupid, I know you did something to my face.” Innocence laughed and tossed the quill behind her shoulder in a quick motion. “You have no trust… I am hurt.” Rhys sitting up went to sit and read again but another knock at the door caused everyone to share a look of slight confusion of who else would be visiting. Innocence running to the door opened it to see Jezebelle, her son, her mother, and a woman she had never seen before. Jezebelle hugged her friend before pointing to the strange woman, “She claimed to be your aunt. She knew enough about you I figured it might be true. She seems nice enough too.”
Innocence made a strange look but allowed everyone inside anyways. Jezebelle and her mother took a seat on the floor happy to be warm again. The strange woman however followed Innocence before walking over to Enigma, she then ran a hand over her face in a kind manner, "Oh Enigma you have grown up so nicely.” Enigma looked at her uncle who looked surprised. “Well Hello Mary.” Mary hearing her son like borther’s voice smiled, “Oh Robert I am surprised you are here as well.” She then listened and heard Innocence speaking to Damon. Walking over she ran a hand over Damon’s face and pulled a confused look. “Darling… Have you thought about lotion?” Damon blinked twice in surprise before Innocence laughed.
Grabbing her aunt’s hand she placed it to her cheek. “Aunt Mary that was Damon’s face.” Mary nodded her head slowly, “Ah I see. My pardon, in that case you do not need to lotion.” Innocence laughed again and let Mary walk over to Robert. “Well it really has been a long time. How is everything dearest?” Robert allowed his sister to sit on his lap and he shrugged, “Well nothing really… How have you been?” Mary pauses for a moment before she also shrugged, “Ditto, are you explaining Christmas to these children?” Rob smirked, “In a way yes. We got a Secret Santa in the works. It seems Walter already broke the ice in that respect.”
Mary listened before nodding, “Speaking of Walter has he finally gotten over his fear of woman?” Rob looked at Walter who gave a confused look, “I am not sure… Why do you ask?” Mary just smiled, “My darling Enigma needs a husband right? Who better then such a kind man.” Enigma gave her aunt a look of horror before burying her face in her hands. Walter choked and looked away. Innocence watched and then giggled, “Oh my god! You are so right auntie Mary, Sister you have succeeded where I have failed!” Enigma glared though her hands at her sister. Damon gave an amused look at seeing Enigma so embarrassed.
Jezebelle suddenly piped up, “Dovie and Stallion do make a cute couple.” Enigma groaned and stood. “Alright enough, I am going to sleep…” Rob however stopped her, “Well the boy has a book of lyrics. Do you not want to sing?” Enigma glared at her uncle but Innocence perked up, “I DO!” Rhys grinned and pointed to the page he had been reading. “Sing that but replace that with his name.” Innocence read it quickly and frowned, “What is a convertible? … And a Sable… And a Yacht… and a-” Before she could ask anymore Rhys lightly hit her with the book. “Stop asking and just sing it.”
Innocence rolled her eyes and took the lyrics book. Damon gave a look of confusion, as did everyone else save for Rob, Rhys, and Mary. All of which just grinned. Innocence sighed and rolled her eyes, “Alright I will do this but you better explain what the hell half of this stuff I am asking for it… I want to know what the hell I am asking for…” Rhys nodded with a grin, “Of course, now sing it already.” Innocence rolled her eyes one last time before she started to sing,
“Damon baby, slip a sable under the tree, For me. been an awful good girl, Damon baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Damon baby, a 54 convertible too, Light blue. I'll wait up for you dear, Damon baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Think of all the fun I've missed, Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed, Next year I could be just as good, If you'll check off my Christmas list,
Damon baby, I wanna yacht, And really that's not a lot, Been an angel all year, Damon baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Damon honey, there's one thing I really do need, The deed To a platinum mine, Damon honey, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Damon cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex, And checks. Sign your 'X' on the line, Damon cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight.
Come and trim my Christmas tree, With some decorations bought at Tiffany's, I really do believe in you, Let's see if you believe in me,
Damon baby, forgot to mention one little thing, A ring. I don't mean on the phone, Damon baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight, Hurry down the chimney tonight, Hurry, tonight. ”
The group was silent for a moment before they all broke into laughter, Rhys once again laughing only this was because of the look on his brother’s face. Innocence glared at him and tossed the book at his head. “Now you sing something!” Rhys shrugged and leafed through the lyrics book before picking one. “Alright fine… Seeing you were so amusing.” Innocence tossed him one last glare before he stood up and started to sing one, he knew this one by memory and tossed the lyrics back at Innocence who was avoiding the temptation to stand up and swat him like a bad dog with it.
“ Have a holly jolly Christmas It's the best time of the year Well I don't know if there'll be snow But have a cup of cheer
Have a holly jolly Christmas And when you walk down the street Say hello to friends you know And everyone you meet
Ho ho the mistletoe Hung where you can see Somebody waits for you Kiss her once for me
Have a holly jolly Christmas And in case you didn't hear Oh bygolly have a holly jolly Christmas This year
Have a holly jolly Christmas And when you walk down the street Say hello to friends you know And everyone you meet
Have a holly jolly Christmas And in case you didn't hear Oh bygolly have a holly jolly Christmas This year… ”
After singing Rhys sat back down with a relaxed look on his face. Everyone clapped for a moment before they started to talk among themselves. Rob saw the tired faces of everyone after a few minutes. Rob looked at Mary who seemed tired herself, “Hey Jezebelle was the sun rising when you came by chance?” Jezebelle nodded, “Barely, but it has been awhile why?” Rob stood and carefully allowed his sister to slide off his lap and land on the floor. “I think it is time for us to go to sleep or no one will be able to have a Merry Christmas. So let us all go to sleep.” Everyone agreed and slowly everyone started towards their rooms. Everyone excited about what Christmas would bring…
***Next Night***
Like always Innocence was the first to rise. She was surprised to see a note tied to her wrist. Sitting up she went to see if Damon was the one who put it on her wrist but saw he was still asleep and had one as well. Pulling it off she opened it. She smiled at what it said. “Secret Santa starts after you read this, on the opposite page is the one you need to give your gift to. So make sure you give them something they want. Meet up downstairs when you are ready.” Looking on the opposite page she was pleased to see she had gotten Damon.
Getting up she pouted for a moment, did this mean she could not give her sister the gift she was going to give her? It was not exactly anything super special but Enigma was her sister and she had thought to get her something. Looking once last time at Damon who was still asleep she went over to the dresser. She pulled out the outfit that she had spent a few days making. She knew her sister hated most of her outfits so she had to figure out what to make that she would like. It would have taken less time but she wanted it perfect. She had to thank Whisper for that.
Sneaking out of the room she went into the next one. Knocking she heard her sister beckoning her to enter. Opening the door she stuck her head in with a smile, “Hello sister.” Enigma who was making the bed, finished and sat down on the edge of the now freshly made bed. “Why hello… Can I help you?” She gave her sister a confused look, Innocence then stuck her whole body through the door and closed it behind her. She kept the wrapped gift behind her back until she was standing in front of Enigma. She then held it out for her to grab.
Enigma looked surprised and took it, “I got you something too… I was going to wait seeing I was not sure if we were allowed to give more then one gift…” Innocence sat next to her sister and grinned, “Oh really? I felt the same way but I figured if I snuck it over it would be fine.” Enigma gave her sister a amused smile before she pulled on the tie and the cloth fell from around the dress. Lifting it up and standing she looked at it. She felt her smile grow, “Oh my, this is so soft…” Innocence grinned, “I made it myself.” Enigma folded the dress and put it on the bed. She then went over to her bags and grabbed something similar wrapped.
She then walked back to her sister and gave it to her. “Here.” She had a small blush on her face but her bangs covered it fairly well. Innocence grinned wider and opened the gift. She like her sister stood and pulled the dress she had gotten from the wrapping. She held it against herself and looked surprised, “This is your favorite dress! Why are you giving it to me?” Enigma shrugged slightly and sat back down next to her gift. Innocence then started to pull her current outfit off and put the black dress on. Enigma gave an amused smile before pulling her own dress off and putting her sister’s handy work on.
Innocence folded both dresses and grinned, she was wearing a semi formal black dress with lace and a corset. It went to just below her knees and fanned out ever so slightly. It was one of the dresses she had always loved as a child and would always used to tell people when she was old enough she would steal it and become just like her sister. It never occurred to her that Enigma may give it to her instead. Enigma was wearing a white dress with black trim, it looked almost like a summer dress only it had nice sleeves and felt very soft and warm.
Both of them very happy with their gifts looked at each other. Innocence was the one who voiced the thought, “What about the horses? I mean we have been making them work all year… And left them outside while it was cold… I kind of made them something…” Enigma grinned, “I got them something too…” Innocence left the wrapping material on the bed and after Enigma grabbed her gift for the horses she grabbed her sister’s hand and ran next door. Damon at this rate was waking up and was surprised to see both women in the room. He however just watched amused as they left with their hands filled with what seemed to be large blankets.
Sitting up and getting off the bed he went to get dressed. It seemed the two sisters were trading gifts… He never was a big gifter but if they could do it he figured he could too… He had gotten Rhys something but… Oh screw it, he would give it, he just needed to get dressed first. In another room Rhys was going through a similar dilemma. Sarah was still sleeping off her last three days and nights awake. He however had figured he would need to give his brother a gift. It was a sensible thing to do but… What the hell to get his spoiled little brother? He had gotten him something but… Oh screw it, he would give it, he just needed a few more minutes to sleep first.
Meanwhile back with the sisters, they had picked Whisper up. She had some sort of hate of Christmas, she had declared that she wanted nothing to do with the Secret Santa and would rather spend the day in her new room. She however had been talked into helping the two sisters give the horses gifts. All three were bundled up and had their gifts. When they arrived to the stables the three horses were huddled against each other. Whisper was the first to give her gift. She gave them all treats and some fairly pricey feed. Enigma gave them each a new grooming kit. So that the stable hand would have less trouble and so the horses would actually enjoy being groomed.
Innocence was last and needed help with her gifts. She had since Enigma had last gotten sick gotten each horse a new blanket, one that was lined with wool and looked like a cape almost, only it had extra fabric that went to their knees and buttoned at the chest. That way it would be less cold. The three girls all took a horse and put the gift on one horse. The horses all snorted and whinnied but seemed pleased all the same. Whisper then tugged at Enigma’s sleeve. “We have extra food…” Enigma bit her lip, Innocence however knew what to do. Running over to the next stall she poured it into that horse’s feed container. She heard a snarl like snort and smirked.
She then walked away, getting a strange look from Enigma. “What horse was that?” Innocence just smiled, “Even a devil can have a Merry Christmas…” That got her a confused but amused look from her sister as they all entered the building just in time to see Damon and Rhys in a slightly awkward but totally amusing brotherly moment. They were both standing in the hallway with their arms filled with what was obviously a gift. The three girls looked at each other and walked closer so they could hear what was being said. After a moment they started to talk, mostly in unison.
“Wait a second…” Damon gave a strange look, he knew he had wanted to give his brother something but did his brother also think the same, or was he his Santa person? Rhys had a blank look on his face. And then that is where the talking in unison began, “Are you my Secret Santa?” … They both gave each other a blank look at this, “No, just giving you a gift.” … The blank look turned into one of slight annoyance. “Stop coping me.” … “STOP!” At that the two men simply pushed their gift into the others arm and turned away. They opened their gifts with their backs turned. The girls had to hold in their laughter at both of their expressions.
It practically screamed, ‘what the hell was he thinking? …’ But they both turned and once again in unison with priceless pained expressions thanked each other before walking away from each other. Once they were both gone all three girls broke out laughing at the amusing scene. After calming their laughter, Whisper went back to her new room. The two sisters then broke away and went to get their Secret Santa gifts ready. Lucky for them they both got someone they had already gotten gifts for. Rob and Mary were sitting all ready with their gifts, both held similar amused smiles. They knew the whole thing was rigged but that was the fun…
Mary then turned to Rob, “Darling… Do you think they know what mistletoe are?” Rob thought for a moment before grinning almost evilly. “No, I am not sure but I think about eighty percent of them are clueless…” Mary then reached into her pocket, “Well then, seeing we are so early we should lay a few surprises…” Robert took the kissing plants and grinned, leaving his sister he started to put them in the doorways to the room. No matter which door was used… The two entering would have to walk under the mistletoe and he and his dear sister would be laughing, and laughing hard.
***Few Hours Later***
At this time everyone was awake. Everyone was putting last minute touches on any gift they had and wanted to make special. Rob and Mary had been waiting for the last few hours but as the door opened their amused smiles turned into demonic grins, which they of course masked as soon as they showed on their faces. The first couple to come through was Satisfaction and Mercy followed by Jalilah and Jezebelle both holding a baby. Mary poked her brother and he stopped the group. “Alright woman and babies can pass but you two… Look above your head.”
The two children looked up and saw a small little plant hanging over their heads. They then looked back at Rob. “What is that?” Mercy was the one to ask seeing Satisfaction was a bit to shy to ask. Rob laughed before explaining, “It is a plant used to trap couples together… In short, you owe the little miss a kiss.” Mercy opened his eyes wider and looked at Satisfaction who shared the same look. They then both started to flail and argue with Rob. “Do it, if you want to get into the room, plus if you do it, you can see everyone else freak out.”
After a moment, Mercy sighed and gave a small peck on Satisfaction’s cheek. They both looked at Rob who looked at Mary. “Well if they kissed, it is good enough for me. Make sure everyone else actually locks lips. No fun unless they have to lock lips.” Rob let out another laugh and allowed the children to take their seats. After a few minutes Innocence followed by Damon ended up coming through the door. Rob too stopped them. He pointed up to where the devious plan was hanging. “Look up.” Both looked up and Innocence tilted her head. “What is that doing there?” Rob gave an amused look. He loved how everyone always asked, walking right into the trap.
He once again explained it and Innocence gave her uncle a look of amusement. “You cannot be serious… Oh my god you are!” Damon just stood beside her with a slight blush growing on his face. Innocence looked at her uncle and he made a movement with his hands. Innocence rolled her eyes, “Fine…” Carefully of the gift in her hand she stood on her toes and wrapped her arms around Damon’s neck placed a kiss on his lips. He was slightly surprised that she was actually doing it but after a moment returned the gesture. Rob then started to laugh as the two children started to yell for the two to get a room.
After being allowed into the room they both took a seat. After a few minutes Sarah and Rhys entered the room. Rob did not speak he just pointed up, both looked up and Sarah had a slightly clueless look on her face but once she looked at Rhys she could tell whatever was hanging over their head was some sort of joke. Jezebelle and Innocence looked at each other before they started to chant. Rhys glared at both of them but then rolled his eyes and bent forward and placed a soft kiss on Sarah’s lips. The both of them then walked into the room. Rob clapped, “Well done, first one who did not bother to fight me.” Rhys sent him a glare and Rob just stuck his tongue out while using a finger to pull on his eye.
As the group started to silently chat among themselves the last and final couple showed up. Enigma had been talking to Walter but when they entered the room, the soft chatter stopped and Enigma gave a blank look. “What?” Walter rose a brow, he knew something was up but… He then noticed Rob was pointing above their heads. He looked up and nearly fell on his ass. He had forgotten about that… Enigma looked up and then looked at her uncle, “A plant…” Rob pouted she had no asked what the plant was for… Mary however just leaned against her Rob and rested her chin on his shoulder. She whispered something into his ear and his pout turned to a grin.
“Eh Walter why… You should know what that plant is, care to explain it to my darling niece?” Walter at this point was rubbing his head, he froze and gave Rob a look of panic. Enigma turned towards Walter, “Spill it, you tell sister everything about this blasted holiday… What is so great about this plant?” Walter gave her a look and she turned his look with a glare. “Well?” Walter rubbed his head once last time before crossing his arms. “Well uh… It is called a mistletoe… And it uh… Wellwhenyoustandunderitwithsomeoneelseyouaresupposetokissthem…” Enigma gave him a blank look before hitting him on his head. “What?” Walter sighed, he really did not want to explain it…
Innocence grinned, “Walter, do not explain just dooooo iiiiiit.” Walter gave her a pained look but at the risk of getting hit a few more times before knocked out he figured he would rather just getting knocked out… Covering his eyes with his hand he used two fingers to pinch his nose before he just went for it. He leaned forward and he grabbed her chin, Enigma who had been glaring at Rob due to him laughing was taken by surprise. She almost lost her balance but Walter ended up wrapping an arm around her waist. She froze in surprise before giving him a blank glare. She should have known when he had rushed through the explanation it was something like this.
Walter ended the kiss, let her go, and after counting to three ran away from Enigma who was now chasing after him, her face a violent red, everyone in the room started to laugh at the two. After a few rounds around the group Rob stuck his leg out and went to trip Walter. Walter jumped over the leg only to be pushed off balance while in the air by Mary. Falling over he sent both of them a glare but it did not last long as Enigma ended up tripping and landing on his back. He then started to apologize over and over only to be hit each him he apologized.
Rob watched amused before tapping Enigma’s shoulder. “Time for gifts, the sun will be rising soon. Thank you for the show, it was the most amusing.” Enigma glared at him before giving Walter one last hit for good measure. She then stood up and walked over to a free chair. Walter brushed himself off and stood. He then sat next to Rob who was getting the Secret Santa underway. “Alright everyone knows who they are giving their gift to correct? Switch your gifts… NOW!” Getting the cue everyone stood and started switching their gifts. After a moment the three adult couples all noticed something, all six of them glared at Rob who just grinned.
It was obviously rigged… It had been so obviously rigged. Satisfaction and Mercy at this point did not notice the rigging and were too happy with their gifts. Satisfaction had been planning to give this to Mercy for his birthday but it worked out, she had been carving this wooden sword for the better part of the month. She was happy to see him jumping around the room swatting it around. She opened her gift and saw a hand made teddy bear holding homemade chocolates. She grinned and hugged the bear carefully not to crush the chocolates. She ran over to Mercy and returned the kiss on the cheek and ran over to the couch to start munching on the candy.
The other couples all sat down, and started to open the gifts they had gotten. Enigma was the first one to finish and looked surprised. She had gotten that dress she had wanted but had been in to much of a rush to get. She had gotten two new outfits… That meant she was spared needing to go shopping. While this holiday was a terror on her heart she had to admit it was awesome… Walter had opened his gift; he was surprised to find a raise, a new outfit, and a letter. He went to open the letter but saw it said open later so he put it back. The two of them shared a smile before watching everyone else open their gifts.
Innocence had opened her gift and let out a happy laugh, she had gotten a necklace with a pretty little pendent on it. She looked at Damon and he helped her put it on. He then leaned over her shoulder and whispered, “This is proof that you are mine.” He then wrapped an arm around her waist and rested his chin on her shoulder. She just giggled and grinned. She then looked over and saw that Rhys and Sarah had given each other cute little gifts. Rhys had given Sarah a nice little bracelet and she had given him a nice blade. The two of them seemed happy, she then noticed that Jezebelle and Jalilah had been grouped together.
She watched with glee as she saw her friend got a historical hand me down of her mother’s prized dress and Jalilah had gotten a blanket so she could finally sit outside during colder days without having to look weird with a few smaller blankets over her shoulders. She then remembered, “Jezebelle!” The girl looked up just in time to catch a present from Innocence. Jezebelle laughed and tossed her own gift. The two girls opened it and saw hand made baby clothes. They both laughed and thanked each other. Walter noticed that other gifts were being given and he reached into his pocket for two small gifts and gave them to Mercy and Satisfaction who both opened them with glee before snacking on holiday shaped candy Walter had made.
Jezebelle had handed Damian to Innocence when Damon had given the cue. Innocence at first had not noticed but then saw a gift tied to his outfit made out to her. Giggling she hugged her son before opening the gift. She looked at it before laughing; it was a matching bracelet to the pendent she had just gotten. Jezebelle clapped and then praised Damian for being such a good boy before returning to her son and bringing him over. Jezebelle gave him a gift from her son for him and Innocence gave Jezebelle a gift for Brishen for Damian. The two girls opened their gifts and laughed. Damian had gotten a straw doll that Jezebelle had made and Brishen a plush doll that Innocence had made. The two boy seemed pleased at the new gifts and started to play with them.
Mary and Rob waited before trading their gifts. Mary was given a necklace, one their mother used to wear. She took it and he placed it around her neck. She then gave him cuff links with the old family crest on them. A prized possession Christopher had once owned before splitting and running away. The two shared a hug and went to continue watching the gift trading. Innocence looked down at Damian, “I have a gift for you but I am not finished yet…” She had a box of dolls she had been making. She had given him the Damon and her doll but she had made a doll of Walter, her sister, Whisper, the two children, her uncle, and Rhys paired with Sarah. She needed to finish making dolls for Jezebelle, Jalilah, and now Mary. She figured she might as well make the whole group.
Damian just cooed before starting to doze off. Innocence grinned and leaned back on Damon’s chest. After a moment it was clear the gift frenzy was over. After everyone grabbed what they had been given couples quick to dart out of the room as to avoid a second round of damn mistletoe went back to their rooms to put their gifts away and go to sleep as the sun was once again rising. Rob watched with an amused grin. He then took his sister’s arm and lead her to her room. He held the grin, “That was fun.” Mary just smiled, “Yes… We must do this again… How does Thanksgiving sound?” Rob just laughed before opening the door and allowing his sister to enter. “Sounds fun. Nice seeing you…”
He closed the door before returning to his room he was borrowing. He had a giddy grin on his face. This had gone way better then he had planned, people seemed pleased and it had worked almost flawlessly. Reaching his room he had not noticed Innocence sneaking down the hallways to go back downstairs. She had felt a bit guilty. While Damon seemed pleased with the wine she had given him, and he was drinking it right now, it did not seem good enough for the pendent she had gotten… She had thought about it for about five minutes and maybe it had not been the best idea but… She reached the area where all the string, paper, and cloth was. She then took a bunch of it and carefully took her sister’s dress off.
Making sure no one was around to see she started to wrap the paper and cloth around herself and used the string to make sure it stayed. She figured Damon was probably confused as hell seeing she had in a way ran from the room but he had not come down so she obviously was not going to get caught yet. Looking down she figured it was good enough. She then started back the way she came. Damon was on the bed drinking the wine; he had to admit it was different. It tasted nice. He was pleased to say the least. He however was totally confused to why Innocence had suddenly bolted from the room. He however figured she had a good reason and left it alone.
He then heard a knock. He blinked and beckoned the person to enter. He then felt his jaw drop. Innocence had her arms crossed and a slight pout on her face. “Well stop gaping… I felt bad about the wine… So I suppose I really am yours.” Damon blinked twice before leering ever so slightly. “Well Santa read my mind…” Innocence snorted before laughing, “Well you have been a good boy, I suppose Santa wanted to reward you…” Damon gave his own snorted laughter before he placed the wine on the table besides the bed and held a hand out. “Well then, I should open my gift…” Innocence rolled her eyes before walking over to him. He then started to unwrap the strings a grin on his lips. This Christmas just got oh so much better…
The next room over Enigma was trying to get to sleep but she was freezing cold and hearing the giggles and other sounds next door was hardly a soundtrack she wanted to listen to. She then turned her head, “Hey… You know I called you in here to keep my warm not to sleep on the edge of the bed and stare at the ceiling all day…” Walter slowly turned his head with a blush on his face before Enigma grabbed his arm and dragged him next to her. She then rolled her eyes, “For someone so damn bashful you seemed so happy to kiss me earlier…” Walter let out a squeak and she just grinned.
She looked at him for a moment from over her shoulder before shifting so she was leaning over him and then she gave him a kiss in return for earlier. Walter just gave her a surprised look. She then returned to her past resting position and wrapped his arms around her waist enjoying the warmth she had enjoyed back when her ankle had been injured. She could get used to this… As the sounds of the room next door creased she felt her eyes drooping. She felt Walter had actually fallen asleep and felt her grin grow. She then with a smaller grin rolled her eyes and muttered, “Merry f**k**g Christmas indeed…”

A/N:: Alright well that was fun. Lol I got some funny shit up in there xD so I hope you all enjoy it. I know this A/N probably pales in comparison and for that I apologize. So to make it up to you I will make your brain explode at the randomness… Why won't her scattering photocopy pink a chaos? Should a taking well trek? Does a tree reform the searching coal? A billion jerk coughs outside a partner. Should the compelling sentence fiddle? The clumsy sacrifice crashes inside the graduate safeguard. Why can't an incompetent try opposite the pinched process? The electronics regains the closer jest. When can the sequel breathe the country composite? Above the prolonged optic moans the allowable starter. Should the banner hum near the six transformation? A springing dye reflects past a nuisance. The here stuff bores in the board. Does a meal alternate the specific boot? A discouraging biochemistry hesitates. And now I rest xD.
I will edit this later in order to give the list. I will I promise xD

It was a calm spring night; the weather was right in the middle, not to cold not to warm. That caused quite a few of our friends to get together. Because it was not put together for a holiday or special occasion it was thought the group would spend a few hours together. However after a few hours passed it was clear it was not going to be wrapping up that soon. In the first few hours, Innocence had brought some of her famous brew from work and had dared everyone who was willing to have a drinking game. One would think that no one would actually dare to fall for this trick again, but with the prize being she would leave the winner alone for a whole month it seemed everyone would be participating.
Once again Sarah just looked on, being given the rank as judge. Innocence drank along with everyone else just for the fun of it. She drank one glass as everyone else drank. Jezebelle was the first one out as she was not exactly used to drinking so heavily. Resting her head on Innocence she started to fall asleep, after six more rounds Enigma dropped out. Saying, “Ah hab wook tu dew… To… To… Tomarrow…” Innocence looked at her sister before breaking out laughing. Enigma slowly looked up at her sister but ended up losing her balance and falling onto Walter who just froze up.
Walter took another drink and another, and after taking a few out of turn ended up backing out. That left the two brothers, the two of them looked at each other. Rhys with a gleam in his eyes glared at Damon who had the same gleam. The two of them held their glasses and waited for the cue, Innocence pipped up, “Alright final two, the rules change, both of you get a unopened bottle and whoever finished first wins, no glasses, GO!” Both men without noticing that the glasses they were holding were glass, tossed them over their shoulders and then grabbed the bottle.
Enigma through her drunken fog glared at both of them, “Yo… Oooh, well beh payin fouuuuur dat…” Both men ignored her and waited for the cue to go, when Innocence finished her glass she dropped it and let it shatter. Taking that as the cue both of the men tipped their heads back and started to guzzle the wine. Those who were still awake watched. Jezebelle who had been napping suddenly woke up, “Who wants to party?” Innocence gave her friend a confused but amused look, “Sure what do you want to do?” Jezebelle standing up and wobbling started to make up a song on the spot. Innocence giggled a giddy laugh and then fell to her knees before crawling over to Enigma who was resting her head on the table.
Enigma looked at her sister while keeping her forehead on the cool table. “What?” Innocence just gave a devilish grin before she started to belt out a song.
“The lights are out and I barely know you We're going up and the place is slowing down I knew you'd come around!”
Enigma looked at her sister with a confused look before she raised her head off the table. If she had been sober she would have told her sister to buzz off but she just let out a giddy laugh before belting out the next few words,
”You captivate me, something about you has got me I was lonely now you make me feel alive Will you be mine tonight?”
Jezebelle laughing at the two girls joined in, only really able to sing back up due to her words being so slurred. Innocence and Enigma sang together while laughing between lines.
”Take me on the floor (dadada da dadadada) I can't take it any more (dadada da dadadada) I want you, I want you, I want you to show me love Just take me on the floor (dadada da dadadada) I can give you more (dadada da dadadada) You kill me, you kill me, you kill me with your touch!”
Innocence continued to sing as Jezebelle stumbled to sit next to her friend.
”My heart is racing as you're moving closer You take me higher with every breath I take Would it be wrong to stay?”
Enigma waited before she continued to belt the song out,
“One look at you and I know what you're thinking Time's a bitch and my heart is sinking down You turn me inside out”
The two girls along with Jezebelle trying to sing backup repeated what they had done before.
“Take me on the floor (dadada da dadadada) I can't take it any more (dadada da dadadada) I want you, I want you, I want you to show me love Just take me on the floor (dadada da dadadada) I can give you more (dadada da dadadada) You kill me, you kill me, you kill me with your touch”
The three girls all looked at each other before each girl took a line before they all belted out the last line. Jezebelle and Innocence mocking a make - out session while Enigma caused Walter to yelp in surprise when she placed a hand on his leg and rubbed her cheek against his shoulder.
”I wanna kiss a girl I wanna kiss a girl I wanna kiss a boy I wanna ... ”
They repeated taking turns while singing, and Jezebelle just continued to mock a make-out session while Enigma ended up wrapping her arms around Walter’s neck.
”I wanna kiss a girl (do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya) I wanna kiss a girl (do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya) I wanna kiss a boy (do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya) I wanna kiss a (kiss a, kiss a, kiss a)”
Jezebelle releasing Innocence started to belt out an easy part of the song,
“dadada da dadadada dadada da dadadada dadada da dadadada (oh)”
Jezebelle continued singing while Enigma and Innocence once again who were sitting next to each other, with one arm wrapped around the other sister’s shoulder belted the rest of the song out together. All three girls totally clueless to what they had both just done.
”Take me on the floor (dadada da dadadada) I can't take it any more (dadada da dadadada) I want you, I want you, I want you to show me love Just take me on the floor (dadada da dadadada) I can give you more (dadada da dadadada) You kill me, you kill me, you kill me with your touch
Take me on the floor (dadada da dadadada) I can't take it any more (dadada da dadadada) I want you, I want you, I want you to show me love Just take me on the floor (dadada da dadadada) I can give you more (dadada da dadadada) You kill me, you kill me, you kill me Please don't stop!”
Damon and Rhys who had finished their drinks, were in the middle of arguing who had won when Damon watched with amusement as Walter had Enigma crawl all over him and after a moment at watching Innocence and Jezebelle looked at his brother with a blank look, “You win…” He then watched while Rhys rested his now aching head on the cool table like Enigma had been doing. Innocence then looked at the two guys, “Your turn.” Damon looked confused, “For?” Enigma gave him a blank look, “Sibling kar… kar… Walter what was the word again?” Walter rubbing his temples answered, “Karaoke.”
Enigma thrust her finger into the air at the two men, “YES! That word! Do it!” Damon just opened his mouth and went to argue but was to buzzed to actually think of a decent excuse. Damon looked at Rhys hoping he had a good excuse but Rhys just sat still on the table before springing up like a jack in the box with a blank look. “Can we pick the song?” Damon taking a minute snapped his head at his brother and ended up falling backwards. Getting up he grabbed Rhys by the collar and shook him, “NO! Do not give in! Give in now and we admit defeat!”
Rhys gave a panicked look before raising a brow, “Wait what are we admitting defeat for again?” Damon paused and stopped shaking Rhys but held his panicked look before it went to one of confusion. “… I am not sure… What were we talking about again?” Innocence and Enigma were quiet for a moment, also trying to remember. Suddenly the two of them scream out, “Sibling Karaoke!” The two brothers then remembered and Rhys went to ask the question again but Innocence answered, “Any song, does not matter.” Rhys nodded before going to stand. Settling on falling over and sitting he started to belt out the song.
“When I get you all alone I'm gonna move in nice and close Ain't nobody gonna interrupt my game, oh no Ever since you've been hangin' around I've been trying to figure out What I'm gonna say to you to get something, yeah
Couldn't we do what we did last night again Baby you and I could be better friends Don't you think it's time we went a bit further, oh yeah Every night when we say goodbye how can I help looking in your eyes Wondering why you and I haven't hit it Can we get it on
Damon froze for a moment but then forgot why he froze, he saw Rhys stopped singing and then with a blank look and a shrug of his shoulders to started to belt out the song.
”Kind of faded, but I feel alright Thinkin' about making my move tonight I can't pretend that you're only my friend when you're holdin' my body tight 'Cause I like the way you're making your move I like the way you're making me wait At the end of the night, when i make up your mind You'll be coming on home with me, yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't you know you've got it? And you know I want it I can't wait to take you home (you know you've got it tonight) I don't want to be rude at all I just want to be where you go Think what we could do alone? (yeah)
Couldn't we do what we did last night again Baby you and I could be better friends Don't you think it's time we went a bit further, oh yeah Every night when we say goodbye How can I help lookin' in your eyes Wondering why you and I haven't hit it Can we get it on”
Rhys at this point was under and Damon had no idea what else to say, he gave a look at Walter who had been staring at the wall before looking at Damon. He gave Walter a look and Walter with a sigh and his own shrug started to attempt to finish the sound, drunk as hell.
”When we first met yo that deal was stated, You spent like my D's the way we compensated; Just another day around the way With me up close so every thing OK. 'cause I'm not like the rest with the best Plus for my full court press Because they hated- How's it go? Hah- Yo, faded.”
Everyone stared at Walter for a moment; he seemed oblivious to the stares and just rested his head on the table. Rhys looked at him for a moment longer before following suit. Enigma let out a yawn that caused a chain reaction. Jezebelle for once actually had to stay over. Taking a spare room she went to sleep as soon as her head hit the pillow. Sarah with help from Whisper got Rhys upstairs, and the other two couples ended up carrying each other up the stairs. Everyone reaching there bedrooms went to sleep off themselves sober that is all but one couple.
The following night Innocence woke up. She had a splitting headache but what else was new? She went to roll out of the bed but she felt two arms around her waist pull her back. Looking behind her she saw Damon was sleeping with his arms around her waist. Grinning she carefully freed herself. Grabbing a robe she put it on and went to go check on her sister, she never drank that much and it would be amusing to see her reaction the night after. Sneaking from the room she made her way to her sister’s room. She noticed the hallway was quiet and it seemed she was the first one up. That meant more fun for her…
Not bothering to knock she was shocked at what she saw. She pressed her two hands over her mouth to keep her from laughing. If they were awake and or sober she figured the two of them would not have been so comfortable. Sneaking over she tapped her sister on the shoulder. Enigma raised her head and looked at her sister. “What are you doing in my room? And why are you only wearing a robe? Did I not tell you to not run around hear naked?” Innocence waited a moment, “Well you also told me not to sleep with the help… Look who is eating her words now.”
Enigma gave her a frown before looking to where her sister was staring. She craned her head slowly before biting back a surprise scream. Leaping off what she had thought was her pillow she almost fell off the bed but Innocence caught her. Gripping her by her arms and keeping her craned as her legs gripped her side of the bed. The action woke Walter up who seeing the two girls jumped and fell over the side of the bed. Both girls looked at each other before looking at the edge of the bed where Walter after another minute poked his head out with a sheepish grin. “Uh… Good evening…” He then noticed his shirt was on the floor across the room.
He then took another look and saw Enigma was only in that bandaged bra and ‘panties’ she always forced herself and her sister to wear. He paused for a moment before blacking out and falling over behind the bed again. Innocence gave a surprised look before looking down at her sister who she was still holding up. “Should we help him?” Enigma gave her a blank look, “No he deserves it.” Innocence felt an evil smirk grow on her face, helping her sister sit on the bed again she started to collect all the fallen clothes. Holding up her sister’s dress she pressed it against her cheek.
“Was this taken off before or after you moaned his name?” Grabbing some fallen bandages she felt the grin grown, “And was this taken off before or after you screamed his name in pure ecstasy?” Enigma grabbing the nearest thing, which happened to be a pillow, tossed it at her sister. “AH SHUT UP!” Innocence dodging the pillow giggled, “Oh right sorry.” Placing all the clothes next to her sister she was silent for a moment before looking closer at her sister. Enigma noticing narrowed her eyes, “What?” Innocence pressed a finger to her bottom lip, “Oh nothing, just looking at the love bite you got.”
Enigma snapping her eyes open in surprise placed a hand over her neck and swatted her hand at Innocence. “GO AWAY!” Innocence just giggled, Enigma glared, “At least I still had something on…” Innocence gave a look of mock hurt, “I was not naked! I still had my stockings on!” She reached down and caused the band of her left stocking to snap against her leg. Enigma taking her dress from the pile threw it over her head and tugged it over her body. “… Then where is the other one?” Innocence paused before frowning, “On the floor…” Enigma just threw her a look of victory before standing up. “Go back to your room and get dressed, we need to help our guests leave.”
Innocence turning to leave threw one last grin over her shoulder, “Well please give me warning next time. I might be scarred for life.” Enigma glared at her before mumbling, “If you do not leave you will be scarred for life…” Innocence giggling ran back to her room. Damon was awake and dressed but he had his hands over his head. Innocence grinning sat next to him, “You will never guess what.” Damon was silent before he wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his head on her shoulder. “What?” Innocence grinned at the display and started to play with his hair. “I just caught Enigma with Walter.”
Damon rose his head with a small grin, “No… Are you serious?” Nodding her head she grinned, “Yes, totally serious.” Damon laughed for a moment, he had always thought Walter was amusing for being so afraid of woman but he was entering dangerous territory if he tried doing anything with Enigma, knowing her she would slap the shit out of him or make him a horse again... Right as he went to say something else a knock was heard. After a moment more the door opened and Rhys stuck his head into the room, “Sarah and I are going to be going now.” Damon nodded his head which caused him to wince.
Innocence giggled softly before waving at Rhys who shut the door. “Well shall we leave too? Sister probably wants me dead right now.” Damon grinned and then stood. He had a splitting headache but he figured he could always just go back to sleep and sleep the damn thing away. Innocence following suit wrapped her arm around his and with a smile started to walk, Damon rolling his eyes and grinning just followed after her. He figured she knew the way so he let himself be led; after all he was too tired to really do anything anyways. Reaching outside they entered the carriage and started towards Lee, both falling asleep on the way there.
*** Five Weeks Later***
This was the third time… The third time this night. She had gotten sick about four days ago and it had only gotten worse. Her body was sore, her ribs ached, her stomach was tossing anything she tried to eat and that was saying a lot seeing she almost never ate solids anyways. She was resting for the fourth night and it was beginning to piss her off. She almost never was sick for this long. She had given Damian to Jezebelle seeing Damon would be too busy to watch him all alone. She would have handed him to Rhys but that would have been too much.
She was deep in thought but then felt the urge to vomit again come, throwing her self over the edge of the bed she emptied her already empty stomach into the bucket that was next to the bed. She held that position until she was sure she was finished. She then heard a knock. She gave a tired look but in a weak voice beckoned the knocker to enter. Jezebelle suck her head into the door. She then saw her friend and gave an amused smile. “Hello Kitten… The Doggie told me you needed someone to help you. He was feeling guilty about being to busy to actually help you.”
Innocence sat back and smiled weakly, “Oh how nice of him… Well how is Damian doing?” Jezebelle entering the room, closed the door, and sat on the corner of the bed. “Oh Cub is doing just fine. How are you doing?” Innocence sighed and rubbed her temples, “I keep throwing up, my ribs here, I am soooo tired, I have not said this to anyone else but my breasts are aching like they were used for punching bags… To make things worse it will not seem to go away…” Jezebelle gave her friend an amused look, “Uh Kitten… You did not like um… Get frisky recently did you?” Innocence gave her friend a blank look.
“What?” Jezebelle giggled into her hand before placing her hands in her lap. “Here let me ask you some questions.” Innocence sitting up on her mountain of pillows just gave her friend a confused look. Jezebelle taking it as a yes just started asking questions. “Answer yes or no, alright does your chest hurt?” Innocence nodded, “Do you feel tired?” Innocence nodded again, “You have been getting sick?” Innocence gave her friend a blank look, “Alright ha… Have you been going to the bathroom more?” Innocence nodded again, “Back and headaches?” Innocence nodded harder this time.
Jezebelle gave a sympatric look, “Alright one last question… When was your last bleed cycle?” Innocence gave her friend a blank look before shooting up and grabbing Jezebelle by the shoulders, “AH! I forgot!” Jezebelle jumped in surprise but then giggled, “Kitten how could you forget? It happens every month…” Innocence froze, “But but but… I was sick and I… Oh crap…” Jezebelle freed herself before patting Innocence on the head, “Does that mean you want me to help you again Kitten?” Innocence frowned, “… Jezebelle…” Jezebelle looked surprised at the depressed tone. “Yes Kitten? Innocence looked up at her friend with panic written on her face.
“Damian was early last time… He almost died what happens…” She could not continue the sentence. Jezebelle catching the drift just smiled, “Oh please that was a violent… Well I hope Doggie is not violent but ahaha after your stories I cannot say that… Well you also have to remember you were kidnapped, this time you will be perfectly fine.” Innocence was silent for a moment before sighing, “What about aunt… And what about Damon…” Jezebelle hugged her friend, “That bitcha will have to fight through armies to get to you Kitten. You will be a bori by that time… Much to late for her to do anything to you.”
She paused before smiling larger, “As for Doggie you will have to tell him, he seems quiet happy with Cub and Pup… I am sure he will enjoy having another around… Plus it gives me a chance to make up another nickname… How does… Lamb sound or maybe Owlet? I had been saving that one for Dovie’s child… But aha.” Innocence looked up at her friend with a small smile, “It sounds cute… and I doubt she will ever have a child…” Jezebelle broke away from the hug and then crossed her arms. “Well, I cannot really care for you till you get better… Seeing it is not exactly an ailment. I must tell Sir Doggie about this…” Innocence suddenly widened her eyes and gripped her friend. “DON’T!” Jezebelle looked at her friend with surprise.
“Why not?” Innocence paused and fiddled with her dress. “Well what happens if he did not want a child yet… I mean he never directly said he wanted one… I mean he did not exactly have a choice with Damian he kind of came with the package…” Jezebelle then playfully hit her on her shoulder. “Kitten, when you two took a roll you were both asking for it, so do not give me that crap. Something tells me he will be happy…” Innocence blushed but nodded her head. It was true… She went to say something but the door opened. Damon stuck his head in, “Oh good you are here, I was just… Why are you both looking at me like that?”
Jezebelle changed her smug look to a playful one. Innocence changed her surprised look to one of horror. “Jezebelle…” The girl wrapped her arms around Damon after forcing him into the room. “Baxt hai sastimos tiri patragi!” Damon gave her a blank look, “Baxt a what now?” Innocence sighed, “Wish luck and good health…” Damon rose a brow, “How did… Nevermind. Why is she wishing me luck and good health? You are the sick one.” Innocence then blushed and buried her face in the pillows. Jezebelle giggled at the display. “Oh boy you really are clueless. Well I guess I can wait until you figure it out but that might take a few months… I cannot care for her that long.”
Damon narrowed his eyes, “What the hell causes that much time in sickness?” Jezebelle grabbed Damon by his shoulders and shook him softly, “Are you kidding me! My god…” Innocence just let out a few groans of embarrassment. Damon gave her a look before looking down, “Alright spill it what is going on?” Jezebelle let go of his shoulders, “Up for a riddle?” Damon gave her a blank look that said no but she just giggled, “Alright then… Riddle me this… What could possible have the personality trait of the Lead of Lee but the looks of the younger sister of the Lead of Tiamorre?” Damon gave her a utterly confused look, “I have no clue!”
Jezebelle pouted, “Alright how about this. What do you have in common with a farmer?” Damon gave her a light glare, “Nothing… What the hell is going on just tell me already.” Jezebelle pouted even more, “Alright Sir Doggie… Riddle me this… Who sows seeds and waits for the ground to bare fruit?” Damon sighed and rubbed his temples, “Farmer?” As the two argued Innocence kept letting out groans of embarrassment that Damon mistaken for pain. “Are you not going to help her with that?”
Innocence let out one final groan as Jezebelle laughed and yelled the answer with her hands over her head. “The answers are, your future child, that fact you both use seeds, and You!” Damon gave her a confused look before it hit him. “W-w-w-w-WHAT!” Jezebelle spun on her heel and did a little dance in place. “Your going to be a father Sir Dog how does it feel?!” Damon just stood frozen while Innocence started to mumble into the pillows. Jezebelle grinned and then blinked. “Oh no I left dya with the children… I must leave before she tries to put them in a show… I wish both you well!” She then left the room.
Innocence kept her face buried, not able to force herself to look at a reaction she might have enjoyed otherwise. Damon stood frozen for a moment; it was not until Innocence was forced to look in his direction as she started another round of vomiting did he unfreeze. She did not look up from the floor though, Damon saw that her reaction was not as excited at Jezebelle’s he wondered why… Sighing he rubbed a hand through his hair and sat on the edge of the bed trying to keep his panic from coming out again. “Your not pulling my leg are you? Please… If this is a joke save a man from an early grave…”
Innocence sat up slowly and rested back on the pillows. She placed a hand over her eyes “… Would it be easier if it was a joke?” Damon gave her a look of surprise before frowning, “No… I just want to make sure I am not being had… I for one love your jokes but if this is one of them it is taking it a bit far…” Innocence sighed, “It is not a joke… I… Jezebelle… GAH!” She brought both of her hands over her face and covered them feeling another wave of embarrassment flood her face. Damon watched her reaction he paled slightly. She either was telling the truth or she was very good at pranks…
He waited a moment for her to brave a look at him, “… I am sorry… I just… Not that Damian is not special its just… His father was not important… So while I would have been upset at if his birth went wrong… I just…” She could not say it… Damon just continued to keep calm mumbling a small fact into her own muttering. “News flash, his father is right here…” He then stayed silent hoping if he did so she could get the words she wanted to say out. After a moment silence from her she just took a sigh, a small sad smile on her face, “Maybe I should hit my aunt up… She would keep her promise I am sure-”
Damon then leaned forward and snapped a hand out, buried her face in his chest, reacting to that comment. “Shut up… Do not say that… You make it sound as if you do not want to have my child.” Innocence struggled against the embrace, getting free she looked up at him, “NO! … I mean I never said that it just seems like a bad idea… You seemed so upset about it and everything… I am not even sure I can go through that again… I almost lost Damian… I was trying to say that I do not feel like I am worthy… Why happens if I am not successful this time around? What happens if I am a horrible mother? I am not used to raising royalty… I-” Damon rolled his eyes, “I said shut up…” Innocence gave him a look before relaxing.
“So does this mean you are not upset?” Damon let out a small snort of a laugh, “Why would I be upset? It was bound to happen…” Sighing he released her and went to the secret stash of wine he had placed in this room. Sitting back down he went to take a drink as he figured Innocence would want to keep talking but much to his surprise she took the bottle. He went to comment on it but Innocence just poked her finger into his nose. “This got us into this mess! …Are you trying to rub it in my face that I cannot drink for another nine months…” Damon gave her a cheesy look before sighing.
“No sorry… Just…” Innocence placed the bottle on the floor next to the bucket and grinned, “It is ok…” She then leaned forward and kiss his nose where she had poked rather roughly. He closed his eyes and had a small smile on his lips. Innocence then laid back down with a frown, “This means I will be throwing up for awhile now… I am not pleased…” Damon just laughed, “Well at least you know why you are sick right?” Innocence placed her hands on her stomach and glared at it, “Yeah I suppose…” Damon placed a hand under her chin and gave a small kiss to the corner of her mouth. He then moved to leave.
“Well I would love to stay and chat but I need to go brag… So I will be back to check later, give a ring if you need anything alright?” Innocence nodded her head and gave him a smile, “Make sure you rub it in to sister’s face alright?” She watched Damon give her a toothy grin and then watched as he left. She had kept the small smile until the door closed, she then changed it to a blank look. “3…2…1…” Just as she reached the end of the countdown she heard heavy footsteps running away from her door and Damon’s voice screaming, "RHYS! BROTHER! I NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE!”
She knew that was going to happen… Leave it to him to keep his cool until he thought she would have no idea he lost it. It was sweet but he was very bad at following through to the end… Rolling her eyes she rested her head down. Rubbing her hands over her stomach she felt a small grin form on her lips. She then heard a slam of a door and then Rhys speak, “What?” She waited to hear Damon’s voice but just heard a line of high pitched whines and yelps. She heard Rhys repeat his past question before the halls became quite an a simple thump was heard. She gave the wall another blank look; she was in for a rough couple of months…

Name;; Mary Ann (Morris) Tiamorre Gender;; Female Hair Color;; Blinding White Eye Color;; Her eyes are no longer, they used to be red however. Age;; She looks around 37 and is around 35,623 years old. Race;; English. Height;; 5’3” Markings;; She has a large scar going across her eyes that she hides behind a wrap. She also has a few scars from her years of hunting and as being an assassin for hire. She has a branding on her hip when she was married into her husband’s family. Personality;; Mary as a whole is very tender hearted and sweet. She would point you before herself even if you were a stranger. As long as you need help you can depend on her that is as long as the favor in question is pure hearted. She will not do any deed that will cause harm to others. The first 10,100 years she lived was spent living with her older brother and helping her mother. She was often also used as an entertainment for her father. She would sing, dance, and play his favor musical pieces. Her grandfather was a very callous man and had demanded she did more then be pretty.
So even though it was against her personality she accepted being her brother’s partner in a hunting business. At first did horribly, often giving mercy and almost getting killed in the process leaving Charles to do the finishing blow, after about 5,000 years of this she became cold herself. Almost broken, she never spoke; she never looked anyone in the eyes and if you caught a look it would be void of everything and anything. She lived like this until her mother had arrived with not one child but two. She was forced to quit her hunting job and take care of her siblings. At first she only looked on with interest but after a few years she got her caring side back.
Right now she is very humorous, although she can seem depressed if you just look at her under all the wrappings and hidden words she is very caring and is not against causing a little trouble. She is a practical joker and loves making her family moan while covered in her latest prank. She has also been known to pull out the wisest lines at the most important times. She often can switch from serious to joking and vise versa in the drop of a hat, often for the best. She does have a bit of a temperament problem. She will often hide that and lash out at those she does not like. She has gotten better over the years but in moments of extreme stress she will snap. History;; Her life has as far as she is concerned going for much to long. However every time in the past when she tried to end it something has happened that made it better. She does not remember many of her victims but she does remember the screams of pain as she gave the finishing blow. These visions often haunt her but she does not drag others down. She remembers the night her mother came back with not one child but two. She was at first against caring for them but found herself drawn. She also felt her cold personality slowly melt as she cared for them.
She cared for them until they were old enough to support each other. She was then married off to Brighton John West Morris. At first the marriage went well but the family was cold and not at all like family back home. They wanted her to do nothing but clean, and produce a heir. They had no real love for her and it caused her to try and run home. She had done so a few times but her grandfather sent her back each time. Every time she was brought back she would get a beating from her mother in law. When she first found out about her mother dying and then her father she figured she had nothing and would live like a slave.
She however finally became pregnant, it went well until Brighton came home drunk and in his rage caused her to have a miscarriage. This happened a few times, after losing so many children her mother in law decided her useless and threw her out. Happily reverting her last name back to her maiden name she reverted to her old habit. That was until the cataclysm. It just happened to strike in the middle of a mission and with her taken off guard her target had stolen her weapon and slashed it against her taking out her eyes. She was an assassin for hire until that day. When she survived she decided to kept an ‘eye’ on her family but kept to the shadows. Refusing to allow her shame to be shared. She then heard about her brother Chris’s death many years later and felt something in her die.
She wanted to end the pain but found out about his two daughters. She wished to meet them but found out that Robert and his wife were still alive. She instead stayed away. The two times she had met Vivi had not gone well and she refused to get into an argument. She wished to meet the girls and be with her brother again but she had no strength to really meet them. She has very sharp senses and while she cannot see, she can ‘sense’ emotions. She knows when joking is appropriate and when a serious line is needed. In these last few years she had been living with two human elders. She does not plan on making herself known for a little longer but… She might end up coming out of the shadows sooner the later. Other;; She is blind and albino. She is also Robert’s older sister. Theme Song;; (No Link) Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven Type;; Noble Pure Blood
