Romance RP

(Ahh back now so I'll be staying for a while. ^^ And I got your PM-it's totally fine, I understand. ^^ We'll get to RP more when you have free time and all and of course, I'll come on Monday so we can RP then. Thanks for letting me know. ^^)

Although Lycoris felt comforted by Ryan's words, she still felt too upset by what happened a little ago and it seemed like she was with the risk of losing everyone she loved. 

Lisianthus sighed and looking at the two, she apologetically said, "I'm sorry about that. I'd think he would act a little responsibly with everything that's happening but I suppose not. That jerk would never change."

(Ahh no problem.  I just finished another file and sent it so I'm taking a bit of a break before starting the next one.  ^^  And thanks for understanding.  I appreciate it.  ^^   )

Ryan smiled a bit at Lisianthus and replied, "It's not your fault, beautiful.  That Duke Collins is just too selfish to think about Lycoris' needs before his wants.  But we won't have to worry about him for much longer.  Once Lycoris is released, we can execute our plan and then he won't find us."

He turned to Lycoris and said, "Once it's just the two of us, no one will bother you.  I promise."

(No problem. And good luck with your work. ^^)

Lycoris nodded slowly, hoping that this would be really the case, for she couldn't stand the thought of losing Ryan as well. Lisianthus could see that she was still upset so trying to cheer up the mood, she said,

"Well, let's not worry about him any longer, ok? He really doesn't deserve it. Are you hungry? We should probably ask for some lunch and it's going to be the most delicious one ever."

(Thanks.  ^^)

Ryan nodded and replied, "Sure.  It is close to lunchtime anyway so we should get something to eat.  What do you say, Lycoris?"

The puppies had woken up and happily approached Lycoris, cuddling close to her.

Lycoris nodded without saying anything, and as she felt the puppies come near, she reached out to touch them and pet them gently. Lisianthus then asked the nearest maid to fetch a delicious lunch for everyone, and the maid left right away to do as ordered.

As the group waited for lunch to be brought, Ryan turned to Lycoris and gently asked, 

"Did you have a good nap, Lycoris?  Do you feel a little better now?"

As Lycoris continued petting the puppies gently, she quietly replied,

"I-I feel a bit better but still very weak and tired . . . It's like I barely have the energy to talk and move."

Lisianthus blinked and asked, "Do you want to have a healer check over you? Although I think it's just the effects of the surgery earlier."

Ryan nodded and added, "I think Sia's right.  Perhaps I can transfer some of my energy to you if you're feeling really tired.  You might recover faster that way."

Lycoris shook her head and replied, "No, it's alright . . . I-I don't want to tire you out with me. I-I'll feel fine eventually, I think."

The maids soon returned with lunch and laid it out on the nearby table before bowing and taking their leave.

After the maids left, Ryan looked at the plates of food presented before them and said,

"Lunch sure smells delicious and I'm hungry.  Let's eat."

He then began to eat his lunch and helped feed Lycoris as well.

Lisianthus began eating her lunch happily as well while Lycoris ate as Ryan fed her, grateful for his help.
She felt quite tired but couldn't help but feeling upset in the same time, feeling down after Alex and Nerine had left, for she couldn't imagine life without them, as though she would never feel happiness again.

(Aww, poor Lycoris.  I hope that she can be happy with Ryan, though.  :/)

As Ryan continued to eat his lunch, he would cast occasional glances at Lycoris and noticed how down and tired she was.  He knew that it was partially due to the surgery but part of him also thought that Lycoris might be sad because Nerine and Alex were gone.  He paused in eating and looking at Lycoris with worry, he asked,

"Lycoris, are you happy being with me?"

(Aww she says that Ryan is the only one giving her strength to go on right now but she can't help feeling quite empty without Alex or Nerine. :/)

Lycoris looked surprised as she heard Ryan asking her such a question and quickly replied,

"But why do you ask that, Ryan? I-I want nothing in the world now but to be with you."

(Aww I understand but Ryan says that he wants Lycoris to be happy again and he wants to make her happy.  :/)

Ryan replied, "I guess I'm just worried about you.  You would tell me if I did something to make you sad or upset, right?  I want you to be happy always when we're together.  I want to bring happiness to my sister, after all."

(I share the same feelings as you do but Lycoris says that all she wants now is to defeat the captain so she would be able to go on peacefully and until that happens, she wants Ryan by her side. :/)

Lycoris sighed and she could guess that Ryan noticed the sadness all over her face. After a moment of silence, she quietly said,

"I-I am sorry, Ryan. I didn't mean to worry you. You-you can never upset me in any way and I-I didn't mean to make you think like that. It-it's just . . . "

She wanted to say that she didn't help how she felt about Alex and Nerine leaving her and how upset and heartbroken about it but she couldn't. Instead, a couple of tears trickled down her cheeks although she quickly wiped them away in hope that Ryan wouldn't see them.

(Aww Ryan says that he's very determined to give Lycoris a reason to live after she defeats the captain.  :/)

However, Ryan noticed the tears that trickled on Lycoris' face and giving her a hug, he rubbed her back and gently replied,

"I'm so sorry, Lycoris.  You must be going through a difficult time now but I promise that you're not alone.  You'll never be alone.  I'll be with you always."
