~..Pomni..~

*She fidgets with the hem of her sleeve, the fabric soft under her anxious fingers. She can't seem to look Ragatha in the eye.* "I... I've just been feeling... a lot, lately. And... a lot of it has to do with you."

*Ragatha's expression shifts to one of faint guilt.* "Oh, did I do something wrong?"

*Pomni's head snaps up, her eyes wide with alarm at the guilt in Ragatha's voice.* "No! No, Ragatha, you... you didn't do anything wrong. That's not what I meant at all."

*opens the door slowey and sees pomni sleeping in bed not wanting to wake up*

*comes inside and sneaks infront of her trying not to wake her up*

*get's nurvous and kisses her in the cheek*

Another trick... another lie. (Pomnis fingers clutch at her jester hat, her eyes wide with a mix of fear and disbelief.) I just want to wake up, please... I just want it to end.

No... I don't think so. (Pomni squints her eyes, studying the photo carefully.) Who is it?

ITS LITERALLY YOU

*grins wider* go ahead. I've buried it deeper than your will to live

*She doesn't even flinch. A small, knowing smile plays on her lips.* You had to bury it, Caine. Because you know we have a right to leave.

*floats back* and who's going to give you that right? your imaginary friend?

*watches you leave, then whispers to herself* Maybe... maybe that's better. *clutches hat* I don't want to drag anyone else into this nightmare.

*I head over to the others*

*whispers* Please come back...

*melts into the embrace, breath finally steadying* Please... *voice barely a whisper* I don't want to let go.

*blushes* ok

*shivers at the blush* You're adorable when you blush. *traces Roslyns jaw gently*
