The Roof Top(Raine)

[Crystal Ballistera]

Crystal arrived to the apartment building she hoped to live in, and then climbed up the steep stairs of the building. She got up to the door and smiled as she opened it. The tents were still up, though some were taken down after some of the parties they had. Crystal looked back to make sure that Raine was following alirght. She took off the hood of her sweat shirt and unzipped it slightly.

Crystal flipped back her hair, even her long bangs that were soaked from exposure to the storm's rain. She smiled as she looked out into the distance. During the sunset the skyline was made to glow with the sunlight. Though it was storming, it was still a majestic sight to see, at least to Crystal's mind. Crissy turned around and smiled warmly. She hoped he would like it as much as she did. "This is it, I might look better if it wasn't raining." Crystal said with a slight shrug and a warm smile to Raine.

[Raine Darkcave]

Raine climbed the stairs behind Crystal. When they got to the top, he looked around and smiled. Even with the rain it was beautiful. He smiled at her when she looked back, to see if he was probably following alright. He went over and stood next to her, sneaking glances at her all the while.

As he saw her take off her hood, he did the same. There was no need for it now, they were under the tents she had described to him. As she spoke, he listened. "It is very beautiful, even with the rain" he said as he looked out over the sunset and the rain. He turned towards Crystal. "I'm glad you brought me up here" he said, his green eyes twinkling in the light.

[Crystal Ballistera]

Crystal smiled at him, looking out into the distance. She heard what he said, and looked at Raine with a warm and gentle smile. "I'm glad you decided to come with me." Crystal said with a smile. She looked into his sparkling eyes, and got lost in them. She tried not to stare, but she couldn't help it. She looked from his eyes to the skyline and kept on her smile. She leaned back on the walk slightly, letting her left leg give her support on the wall. Crystal looked at Raine, and wondered what he was thinking.

She realized she was staring, and looked out into the skyline again. She loved the serenity that the roof top was providing, and Raine being there with her was only an extra for her. She flipped back her hair, trying to enhance her line of sight. Crissy looked out into the sky, and smiled at the lighting flashing above her. Crystal's gaze shifted slowly from the skyling before her, to Raine's eyes.

[Raine Darkcave]

Raine caught her looking at him several times. He smiled as he turned around, lookign all around them. Then after a minute, he turned back to her. He thought it was time they got to know each other a little better. "So, what do you like to do?" he asked as he gave her a warm smile. He didn't want to have her think that he was creepy or anything, but he was just trying to be friendly. Plus, he was falling hard for her.

The rain picked up, as did the wind. The tops of the tents rippled in the wind, as the rain came down on them. He turned back to her, awaiting her reply.

[Crystal Ballistera]

She smiled subtly at him. As the tents rippled in the wind, her smile grew brighter. "I like to sing. I love to sing..." Crystal said with a smile. It seemed liek a bit of an under statement to her. She truly loved singing, it was the only thing she knew she would always have in her life. Her mother refused to let her sing in public, but she sang for her sister. Her sister told her that she was good, but agreed with their mother on keeping it under tabs. She looked at Raine, and wondered what he would have to say about it.

"What about you? What do you enjoy?" Crystal asked with a coy smile. She would rather hear more about him than talk about her some what bleak life style. Crissy look out into the horizen of the roof top, and then to the tents for a moment. She felt the rain on her face, and smiled as she closed her eyes. After a moment, she opened them up and looked back to Raine. The storm was great, and the wind was even better.

[Raine Darkcave]

Raine smiled as she said she loved to sing. "Well I like to vanquish demons...." he stopped and looked at her and quickly added, "My inner demons that is" as he turned away and after a minute turned back. "I also like to draw" he said as he smiled at her. No one knew about that, well except her now. "It takes my mind off of things" he said as a smile came over his face.

He wondered if she had a secret. He sure had one, but he wondered if they met by chance or on purpose. His mother was always tryign to hook him up with other vampires, but he never took to any of them. So he hoped she wasn't another pairing that his mother had set up.

[Crystal Ballistera]

Crystal turned to Raine in slight schock. She grabbed her throat and took a small gulp. "Inner demons....okay..." Crystal said, still clinging to her throat. She shook off the shock, but she was still a little on edge about that comment. She didn't consider herself a demon, but a Fury. But to everyone else, they labled her as a demonic race. She thought for a moment. "Drawing, that's really cool." Crystal said, calming down much more. She liked spending time with Raine, but she wondered how it would look if she said she was a Fury. Raine, I'm a Fury princess....that doesn't sound crazy." Crystal thought to herself.

Her sarcasm, one of her more developed traits, leaking into her mind. She looked at Raine, and wondered how he would handle something like that. It would be the same if she fell for a mortal, or someone else. What were the odds that he wasn't human. No one else would have slipped up on a sentence like that, than again, she would have too if her mind was somewhere else. She looked at the sky for a second, and then back to Raine. "Your girlfriend must be worried about you being out so late." Crystal said, setting him up to answer the statement. If he said yes, she'd be on the roof top with a taken guy. If he said no, then there was nothing to worry about. Other than the her being a Fury though.

[Raine Darkcave]

Raine looked at her as she said 'inner demons'. She was definitly thinking something, because of the way she looked. He had slipped up, and she knew it. He never slipped up, so he was shocked himself. He turned away until he heard her speak again. He laughed immediately. "Girlfriend? No, no I don't have a girlfriend" he said as he blushed a little and smiled at her.

He couldn't really talk to girls, let alone get up the fangs to ask them out. He knew what she was doing, but he thought it was cute. "What about you? Do you have a boyfriend who is wondering where you are?" he asked as he waited for her response.

[Crystal Ballistera]

Crystal smiled as she heard Raine was single. It was more than a relief, but almost an invitation to a new level of the conversation. Then he turned the tables on her, asking if she was in a relationship. "I'm not dating anyone right now, though there is someone I've kind of got my eye on." Crystal said coyly. She smiled at him as she finished her statement. Crystal thought about it, she was almost forced into the single life style. There weren't too many guys she could see, for fear of what her mother would think or say. That and telling someone your a Fury doesn't exactly roll off the tounge.

Crystal looked at the sky through the tents, and then her gaze shifted to the moon in the stormy night sky. She let out a small sigh of relief and comfort. Crissy looked from the sky back to Raine's eyes. She would much rather let him lead the conversation, the one question she wanted to ask was asked. More would probably arise, but as of now she was more than content being on the roof with Raine.

[Leo Wyatt]

Raine listened intently, waiting for her answer. He smiled a small, boyish grin as he looked at her. Well at least he didn't have to look out for any jealous boyfriends. "Oh really?" he said as he heard her next comment. "If you don't mind me asking, who would that be?" he asked with another grin. Well maybe he would get lucky and finally find a girl that was acceptable in his parents eyes. He really liked this girl, even though he barely knew anything about her.

He looked at her, examining her features. He didn't know what it was, but there was something about her that made him fall for her. Her golden locks stuck out from her face, the most prettiest feature that she had in his opinion. He was interested to hear her answer, hopefully not feeling too uncomfortable.

[Crystal Ballistera]

Crystal looked at him and smiled. There wasn't much she could do to dodge the question he asked her. She wondered what he'd think if she told him the truth. Crystal answered with the only reply that wouldn't put herself too far out there. "I don't want to say and jynx it. Maybe you'll find out later." Crystal said with a gentle smile. She let out a small giggle at her amazement of finding a small loop-whole to the question. She saw him looking at her and her smile grew brighter.

Crystal looked out into the moon light, it seemed like the moon was falling. There was still time before the sun would come up, but she still didn't want to go home. She'd have to lie to her mother, but at this point she didn't care much. Crystal looked at Raine, and began to wonder. "Single...both...so...single." Crystal said with a slight giggle. She wasn't too sure where to go with the conversation. She had planned to ask him about his life, but that part of her plan was exacted. She didn't think too far after, assuming it would take it's own course of action.

[Raine Darkcave]

Raine laughed when she found a way to dodge the question. He looked at her and grinned. There was just something about her that made him want her even more. She was just so easy to talk to, he could be himself around her. Well not his whole self. He couldn't exactly turn into a bat right in front of her. He looked at her as she started to speak again. He heard her say 'Single...oh so single'. He gave a chuckle at that. "Yes we are..." he said as hhe turned to her. "But that could easily be fixed" he said as he gave a shy smile to her.

He turned away, mostly because he was blushing. Mostly because it wasn't a normal blush. That would be because he wasn't human, he was a vampire. Instead of the normal crimsion color that usually filled a human's cheeks when they were embarassed, his cheeks turned a silverey color. He didn't want her to see, because then it would freak her out. He also tried to keep from touching her. If he did, she would feel his skin, the cold, stone like skin of a vampire.

[Crystal Ballistera]

Crystal smiled at Raine and looked down at her feet for a moment. When she heard what Raine had said, she let out a bright smile. 'But that could easily be fixed.'. Crystal waited a moment before she replied, and then spoke with her smile. "Well..." Crystal began, her smile still as incondecenet as before. "What would you purpose as a solution for our little prediciment?" Crystal asked with a coy smile. She raised her eye level to meet with Raine's, and continued her smile. She looked at him as he turned away, and let out a small giggle.

She ran her fingers through her hair, and then looked up to the sky. She saw that the moon was falling, and the sun was beginning to come up from the horizen. It probably wouldn't be up for a few minutes, but that still meant she ws out all night. Her mother would probably throw a fit, or be too busy to care. Crystal noticed the rain had ceased, and she smiled. "Almost sunrise..." Crystal muttered to herself quietly.

[Raine Darkcave]

When he felt his skin return to the normal pale color, he turned back to her. His eyes met her, making him smile. He was being careful not to blush again. He heard her reply. "Well you could let me take you to dinner tomorrow night" he said with a grin. He had just noticed that the rain had stopped falling, but the weather was still cool. He looked down at his shoes, noticing a spot on them. He would have to clean them later, or get one of his servants to.

He was about to say somethign else when he heard her other comment about the sun. His head snapped up and he turned around, facing the brightenign ball of light. It was still too dim enough for anythign to happen to him. But t would only stay that way for a few minutes. He needed to get out of here, but not without an answer from her first. He turned back to her, putting a smile on his face.

[Crystal Ballistera]

Crystal looked at him, and couldn't help but smile. "I'd really like that." Crystal said with a bright smile. Crystal was happy he asked, a little surprised, but still happy. That was the first time she'd been asked out, but hopefully not the last. She looked at him, and wondered what she should expect. Too bad I didn't get Rina's power... Her sister was gifted with a type of foresight, but sadly it wasn't a power they both developed. She looked at the horizen, and then to Raine's face once again.

"Any particular place we're going?" Crystal asked with a smile. She saw his reaction to the sun, and wondered what it was about it that would make him act like that. It wasn't too important, but it would be nice to know. Crystal pulled all her hair to one side, and wondered what he would have to say.
