Faded Dreams pt6.

Memories.

Lilith tumbled around in her bed. She knew she had gotten at least less than 4 hours of sleep. Physically exhausted and confused, she didn't know what to do anymore. There were so many questions and unfamiliar feelings. There was no disgust towards Cain at all, she couldn't understand why. It was the opposite of disgust. The butterflies in her stomach erupted as soon as she began to think of Cain and his proposal. She wondered carefully as to if he was serious. She couldn't understand why at all he would say such things to her. She looked outside of her wonder. The sun wasn't even up, and she still needed sleep. Her mind full, and her heart hurting, she didn't know what to do anymore.

The door knob to her room suddenly sounded like it was slowly turning, her heart began beating rapidly. She turned to her side and closed her eyes pretending to be asleep. The door creaked open, as it creaked as it shut. Footsteps were heard and a chair was pulled up to the side where Lilith's sleeping face lay. Cain looked at her face intently, he has a sad, wanting look. He placed his hands on her bed and placed his forehead on top of them, sighing deeply. "..... My sleeping maiden... I wish you could love me too... As much as I feel for you.. As much as my heart beats for you... As much as I want bully you... And dirty you..." Lilith slightly shivered as he heard his words. He seemed to notice her shiver and thought she was cold. Bringing her covers up over her shoulders and tucking them softly under her chin. Lilith forced herself to stop.
"My maiden... I don't want to you know my feelings.. Because it's hard taking rejection.. I want to play with your mind.. And hurt you... Making you my prey.." Cain said as he looked lovingly into her face, taking a lock of hair and grasping it tightly. He bent down, locking his lips with hers again. Lilith laid there, frozen still from all of his words and actions. Shortly after, he stood and left. Leaving his presence all around in her room again.

Devin watched as Miyu tumbled around in her bed, she was obviously having a nightmare. He had sat in a chair they had in the corner of the room. The reason why he wasn't in the bed with her was, as she was moving around in her delusion, she had kicked him out of the bed around four times. The fourth time almost hit him in his most sensitive spot. He didn't want to take the chance and decided sitting in a chair and trying to sleep was more comfortable than sleeping a peaceful sleep just to be awakened with a painful kick to the groin and passing out instead of sleeping.

Miyu was dreaming of the day Rikku had died, all the while trying to get rid of her current feelings that filled her. Worry, doubt, fear, depression, all were in her current state of feelings. She had remembered that a man named Mike had called her, a college classmate who somehow managed to get her number. Nephie and her were having coffee together when his call came, it disrupted her nice day.

"So.... How's life going?" he said to her nervously, already knowing her temper. "It's going fine, do you need to know?" She retorted, talking to him was the last thing she needed. "Aww, don't be like that, I haven't seen you in forever!" He had said with a whine, Miyu made a What-the-eff-are-you-talking-about-you-idiot kind of face and looked at the phone. Nephie in the background was laughing at her while happily enjoying a slice of cake. "Can I hang up now?" Miyu questioned him, the other line was silent for a moment before a nervous laugh came "Oh, what that a joke? Hahaha, anyways, I was wondering if you're free tomorr-" He was promptly cut short of his sentence as her cell phone beeped, indicating there was another call coming, Miyu knew the call must be important, because everything is more important than Mike.

"Ou, there's another call coming in, talktoyoulaterbye." She managed to switch to the other line and hanging up on Mike. As soon as she switched, she heard sobbing. Miyu looked at her cell phone and saw it was Rikku. Immediately she knew it was the worst news she is going to hear from her. Nephie looked at her curiously. Miyu smiled at her and shook her head. She was about to whine to Miyu but noticed it was time to go back and baby-sit a rich family's child. As much as she loved kids, she often detests Luke because he would always do the most unintelligent things, even if the job was difficult, they paid her pretty well. Nephie stood and gave Miyu a hug and whispered lightly in her ear "Tell Rikku I said hi and sorry I can't talk right now" Miyu hugged her back and then returned her attention to the call again. "Rikku, sweetie tell me what's wrong?" As Rikku explained everything to her, Miyu grew angrier. "I just don't know what to do... Promises, something to look forward to in the future, relationships... They're all lies. ALL of them." Miyu was deeply concerned As she was about to speak, a screeching sound was heard and Rikku's scream echoed into the receiver....

Miyu flinched in her body, the unconscious feeling of falling and trying not to fall feeling. Devin looked at her, examining her body and how cute she looked in her teddy bear patterned pajamas. He stood and walked over to her, placing his hand on her head and lightly patted it. Soon a small tear crept out of her eyes. His heart tightened and he closed his eyes, wishing everything would restart over. He ran his fingers through her hair and smiled. As soon as his hand ran out of hair to run his fingers through, Miyu stuck out her leg violently and kicked Devin square on in the crotch region. Devin eventually passed out on the ground, in the cold.

Lance paced around his room, unable to sleep, unable to stop thinking, and unable to forgive himself. He plopped onto his bed and tried to close his eyes, however every time he did, he could see that man kissing Rikku passionately. That image was burned onto his retinas. He nearly screamed, and almost nearly fell off his bed.

Hours passed and Lilith was sure she wasn't going to be able to sleep in that room. She stood, slipping out of her room and into the hallway. Her nightgown was very loose and it kept slipping, she held herself tightly so that it wouldn't fall. It was much cooler in the hallway and the presence of Cain had disappeared. As she slowly walked down the halls, she remember the library and the couches. She hurriedly rushed to the room and opened the door. It was cool and silent, no one was there yet. Lilith made her way to one of the couches and laid down. Shortly afterwards, she drifted peacefully to sleep.

"I love you...." "I love you too." "Promise me you'll be with me forever?" "Forever and beyond." A man smiled happily at her response and pulled her into a tight hug following a soft kiss on the lips. The girl blushed nervously and clung to him. She felt very warm and happy to be where she was and the relationship she was in. All very fuzzy feelings. A different memory replaced that one shortly after. The man smiled weakly at her and gently took her hands. "I.. I can't hide it anymore.. I know that you know it-" He suddenly stopped, not being able to say anymore, the girl looked at him with a teary expression, but no tears came. He was immobile looking at her. The girl looked up at the man and smiled. "Then I guess I shouldn't pretend that everything is all right. I don't even know if we can stay friends. Good-bye." She lightly patted his hands, and let go. Turning and walking away, still not even a tear shed. It was only when she was out of his range was she able to cry, silent tears. Lilith never got to see who these people where, they were all faceless, before she could find out who they belonged to and why she remembered them, she was out of her dreams.

Lilith was suddenly awoken by something heavy on top of her, at first she thought she was in her bedroom when she looked up at what was on her. Cain was there, with a smirk on his face. "You just couldn't wait now could you?" He slyly said, pinning her hands above her head and pinning her body with his. Lilith's face blushed bright red. "You're.. You're wrong! I just... J-just needed some air." She managed to stammer out. Cain looked at her blankly and then proceeded to look down to her body. Lilith's face had almost turned into a tomato. While she was dreaming, her nightgown managed to inch from belong the knee to a little less than mid-thigh, and the straps to it seemed to have slipped past her shoulders. Cain looked at her curiously and he smiled wickedly. He lightly began to kiss her shoulders, making his way towards her neck, lightly licking the skin there and then to the other side of her neck. Lilith seemed to have lost her voice at those few moments. He soon began to kiss the top part of her breasts. Lilith immediately tensed up, Cain felt this and smiled, looking up at her. She remember the words he said to her sleeping self earlier, how he wanted to dirty her, and how he wanted to hurt her. Tears slowly leaked out of her eyes, "H...Hat....Hate you...." She slowly began to say, at first Cain didn't understand, until he saw her crying, and she saw the displeasure in her eyes. "I hate you..." Lilith said to him, sobbing madly now. Cain stood and looking at her helplessly. He got his wish, he had hurt her. He took off his coat jacket and covered Lilith up. He looked away and Lilith was surprised. She slowly stopped crying and sat up.

Cain didn't look at her, he stare out of the windows. It was still slightly night but it was a light shade of blue. "I'm... Sorry." He said to her, not looking. When he did look at her, she could tell her was sorry, just by looking into his golden eyes. He kneeled in front of her and slowly raised his hands to her face, cupping them. His touch was warm and kind this time, he softly narrowed his eyes and looked into hers, lightly drawing her closer, kissing her lovingly. He stood shortly and left the room, leaving her alone in the room, full of his scent.

Lilith laid back down on the couch, closing her eyes tightly. And feeling the beat of her heart rapidly pumping.
