He turns, slamming a fist into a nearby tree. "You talk like you know. There is no excuse, that girl could have doen manual labor instead of whoring her body out. It's just plain disgusiting. No one has an excuse to do that. There are plenty of other things you could've done. Stop trying to reassure yourself." He begins to walk away, not wanting her to admit to the crime. But he couldn't mistake what he heard in her voice, the pain and panic, all together, he just didn't want to know. All he did know was that he needed to go punch somethings. All the pain and agony created when Julianna left, was now turned to anger, and even though her didn't know this girl, he didn't want to end up hurting her either, which was a strange thought, even for him.

Erika curses herself for letting him guess that part of her past. But it made her want to prove herself. She hated to think that she was worthless. "Is whoring worse than getting killed by your husband like my mother? Is whoring worse than living alone and not knowing how to fend for yourself? Is whoring worse than having no one care?" she practically yells at him. She has no idea why she's telling him, but it's all just falling out. She doesn't care at this point. "Or maybe you'll appreciate my other profession better. Would you rather think of me as an assassin than a whore?" she says, not quite yelling anymore. Her hands are clenched in fists at her sides. "Is killing people you've never met better than selling your body out to the world?"

He turns to her and says, "Yes, it is. At least in my book. And look, I'm not your diary, so don't give me the whole life story bullshit, I've heard it all before." He remembers Julianna's past and doesn't want to get involved again. Why wouldn't this girl let him be, couldnt she see he was suffering? He turns back around and says, "You don't want to get close to a person like me if you think selling your body is better then killing people you don't know. What do you think I do? Am I such a bad person because I do things I need to? I guess I am, by your book anyway. So, save yourself a problem. If you think I'm such a bad person, then leave me alone and don't ever try to get close to me ever again or a will rip open that pretty little throat of yours." He starts to run off into the forest with his inhuman speed. He reaches and edge of the woods and wipes the blood off of his chin that was still there.

Erika sighs and watches him leave. "You're just trying to survive too. Like the rest of us." She resumes her walk through the forest, heading back to the castle. Part of her wants to catch up with the vampire and apologize and part of her wants to crawl in a whole and die. The part with a conscience wins out in the end, but she doesn't try to seek him out. She just keeps walking and eventually gets to the edge of the forest. She stops then, still not wanting to go back to her dorm.

Frost walks over to the garden by the edge of the woods and starts to punch through the cement walls. He screams a wordless rage and then falls to his knees, weeping. He mutters under his breath, "Why... why did you leave. Julianna, please spare me, come back to me. Mend my broken heart.... please." He collaspses onto the ground and begins to fade away.

Erika hears someone near by crying so she goes over, quietly, to see what was wrong. She gets there soon enough to hear what Frost says. Her first instinct is to giggle at the fact that a vampire was suffering from a broken heart, but then she ended up sighing instead. She'd never experienced a broken heart because of her jobs, but after her mother was killed she wasn't even sure that she wanted to be in a relationship. But hearing that a woman left her man, granted an undead one, surprises her. She wants to go comfort him, but she doesn't want to incur his wrath. She starts to move toward him, but stops, still not sure what to do.

Frost passes out from over exertion and still tears flow from his eyes.

Erika sees him go down, and she shakes her head and curses. She hurries over to him and starts to check him for a pulse, like she was taught. Then she remembers that he's a vampire. She laughs quietly at her own stupidity. Sighing again, she decides to try to wake him up. "Hey," she says gently, lightly shaking him.

He sees Julianna in front of him, calling his name and holding her hand out to him. Blood is smeared across her lips and chest, glittering like red rubies. He grabs her hand and pulls her close to him, feeling her lips against his, he kisses her hard, thrusting his tounge deep into her mouth. Little did he know, back in the real world, it was Erika he was forcefully kissing, not Julianna.

Erika gasps and gives a little shriek of protest. This can't be happening, she thinks. I don't think he's even awake! She doesn't want to freak him out by doing the forcefield thing again, so she does the only thing she can think of: she pulls away enough to free her mouth and slaps him, hoping that would wake him up enough to realize what he was doing.

Julianna bit his tounge and ripped it off, blood trailing out of his mouth. He screams and pushes Julianna/Erika away. He wakes up and sits up straight, looking around him to see Erika sitting on the ground next to him. "What in the hell are you doing here?" He turns his face away from her and wipes the tears away that were still drying on his face. He stands up and has to catch himself on the wall next to him. "I told you to go away. Why are you here?"

"You passed out in the middle of the fickin' night. I couldn't just leave you out here," she says like it's obvious. "I didn't expect you to start making out with me either, but you did." She sighs and runs a hand through her hair. "Besides, I wanted to apologize. Even if you do jump a girl while you're dreaming, you're not a monster. You're just trying to survive. That's all any of us seem to want. So, sorry for freaking out earlier." She gets up, dusting off her clothes and starts to leave the gardens.

Frost stumbled over to her and caught her arm, "Wait, I did what?!" He thought back to his dream and dread filled him. "I did not just kiss this girl, did i?" he thought to himself. His knees gave out and he fell to his knees on the ground. He kept muttering, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I'm sorry." He let go of her arm and punched the ground, making the cement crack like ice being sturck with an ice pick.

Erika watches the vampire, not sure what to do, until he punches the ground. Then she kneels in front of him. "Hey, it's fine. I'm not mad. You don't need to take out whatever this is on the cement. How can I be mad at someone for doing something in their sleep?" She sighs. "I'm sure you and I have both done way worse things than that."

He gives her an anguished look and says, "You have no idea.." With that he stands, regains his posure, and begins to walk toward Julianna's once home. Her dormatory was all he had left of her.

Erika stood as well, but didn't follow him. "You know, it does actually help to talk about it. So if you ever need to, I'm in the Air dormitories. I thougth they'd put me in Fire, but no. I got stuck with the telepath and some other people."
((So, it took me until two months later that this post is wrong. She is in Fire.... Shows how much I pay attention..))

Frost nods his head at her and continues to walk towards the other set of dormitories. He regains his composure and locks his emotions down tight inside of him. "Sorry, but I do not need to take advice from a human girl. You're the one who seems like you need to talk. Just remember that my mage is clairvoyance, so if you don't want me to know your past, stay the fuck away from me." He hated to be this rude to the girl, but he didn't want to get close to her in any way shape or form.

"I've basically told you the whole thing anyway, so it doesn't even matter if I'm near you," Erika mumbled, knowing he would hear. "And I never said you needed to take my advice. I was just giving it." She hurries to catch up with him. "So, who is this girl anyway? The one you thought I was when you jumped me. Sometimes it's nice to know who a guy's thinkin' about when he's stickin' his tongue down my throat," she says nonchalantly.

[Lmao, that was really funny.]
Frost said in a low, almost growling voice heeding warning, "No one you need to know about... or anyone else. I don't really want to talk about it." He was starting to soften up. This was due mostly to the fact that he was growing very tired.

"Alright," she says. "I get it. She pissed you off or something and you're wallowing. I respect that." Erika chances a look at his face. "If you ever do want to talk about it, I'm here. And the donation is still open for whenever." She knows he probably won't take either offer, but she feels she needs to make it anyway. She has learned through the years that it's better to make the offer and not be taken up on it than to not make it and have someone need it.
