Eve Of Gluttony

Early Summer Thoughts

The breeze blew warm announcing the coming of summer's hottest days. The aroma of the tall grasses was an intoxicating perfume and the starry night above was a painting more sublime than any man could create. "Say , Ise , what do you think about the plan?" The servamp of Gluttony was resting his head on his crossed arms , laying on the back. Ise's eyes haven't broke up the connection with the sparkling stars ,not even for an instant. He just made a puzzled face and muttered something. It's unusual for World End to be so silent , despite the fact he's tired and full for once in a while. "Doesn't fascinate me." I assume he said. His hair was lazily ruffled, the white tips being gently blew by the current of air, his black and cropped shirt also revealing more of his dark,  vertical lines which were going from the  stomach down to his hips. One of the things that interest me in Ise was his hair. A kind of translucent white,  not greyish or creamy or blonde. It was absolutely white. Then another right now , are his eyes . Each Servamp's eyes are a different shade of red ...going from fiery, sizzling hot, flaming red to scorching hot , scarlet, bold , maroon, sunset and holly berry red. It was the color of blood, but not the vivid red of the freshly spilled, but more the browning red of old blood, which from my opinion is as beautiful as the others. And as for the three oval shaped marks on his cheeck , I can't say what they represent.. neither I can for the lines from the abbdomen. But I like it this way. Another breath of wind came , making me shiver because I was resting on the ground too.It was getting a little bit cold. "Let's go inside"
"You can go if you want. I'm staying a little longer." The feeling I got when I heard his lazy voice was relaxing, mixed with the smell of summer leaves and the sound of tokyo at night.Itmade me feel somehow like staying more. "I'm going down with you..so I guess I'll have to wait" I pondered as holding my forearm with the other hand and sending him a slight smile. Ise then detached his gaze from the starry sky and dirrected it to me, getting half up and supporting his back on the wooden whatever that thing was."If you really are that cold I can warm you up." I turned my head to the side to avert my gaze, but the sudden rosiness of my cheeks gave me away. Lucky it was that dark outside he wouldn't notice  ..and why would I blush from something World End said .. it doesn't make sense at all. I step  forward and give Ise a questioning look from above. "And where should I plant myself?" I knew sitting next to him won't be more confortable than the cold ground. He then took hold of my wrist and slowly guided me. I stood and let myself rest my head on his pectorals, back against his stomach and my legs were on the solid surface. It indeed was better than before ... even better than going into my room.Despite the fact in Twilight vampires are icecold and white skinned but the truth is they are sometimes warmer than humans and it feels..it feels like I'm cold enough to melt down into his embrace. Anyway , the starry night above was better than any software imitation. There were lighter patches, clusters of faint and bold light, the constellations altered according to the time of year. "Now I get why you wanted to remain here"
 "I'm trying to find the Aquila" World Wnd stated. "Pride told me I won't do it that easily"
"And this is the reason you're spending night outside?" I smile in mockery. He was unbelieveable.
"I'm a big fan of the summer starry sky.You didn't have how to know since you've become my eve at the beggining of the autumn"
"Indeed.Tell me more about the constellations you find in summer" I sluggishly demanded.
"Vulpecula , Sagitta and Lyra are one of the smallest. You can see them there , there and there" he explaind as pointing at the ocean of stars. I could easyly remark them after a description of the shapes.  The Pole Star was overhead, the Great Bear hanging over the circle of the earth and away beneath and beyond the shining corona of the sun were strange groupings of stars I had never seen in my life. Anyway ...after 10 more minutes I fell half asleep in the servamp's arms, allowing him to concentrate over the serch of Aquila. Since I met him , he never got so quiet and into something like he did last night. I'm used to his loud and impatient self , the one who has anger-management problems and the one who despite the fact he's wearing sandals, still enters the house without taking them off. Shouldn't've said that but hey , it's annoying as hell. As I let myself go into the dream's realm I somehow notice him moving a strand of hair which was resting on my face , after my ear. Then he placed his arms over mine in order to keep the heath and started playing with my necklace , muttering "I've found it"  then he bented a little in order to restabilish his center of weight. My back hepled for his supporting , fact which caused me pain since then.He would have transformed into his animal form and sleep better if it wasn't me the factor to take care of. All I can add about last night is that the warmth of his embrace soaked into me , and I plan on using it as a powerful charm against bad things as I planned to do from the very beggining of our contract. This morning I found myself sleeping onto the couch from the place World Wnd usually spends his time at. That one little cabin at the edge of the Aokigahara woods also known as the suicide forest. "What happened .. notes again?" I ask the vampire next to me which has barely woken up. "Note ? yeah .. there was one but I threw it away before it could get on my nerves!" his tone increased as he explaind. Usually when it happens to fall asleep in ... unusual places or leave the house unanounced my mother locks the door and keeps me outside as punishment. Since it's 5 am in the morning mom should be asleep ,fact which allows me to go fake a nap onto the garden swing. I throw Ise a look to see he is still laying on the bed in his pig form, snooring and swirling all over it. I take him from the so called bed and have my way out of the little wooden place. I still need to ask World End about wether he's ok or not with living together with the others.
