At first, Shakila didn't seem to say anything as she looked at the paper with a little sigh before looking over to Shelton "Well...yeah....why...do you ask anyway?" she asked him.

"Shakila, I don't know if you noticed, but I'm 41; I can't be getting into relationships with underage teenagers!" Shelton put his head in his hand. "I'm sorry; I should never have agreed to even sleep in the same room with you."

MrDrake · **Reply #2222 on:** June 01, 2010, 09:15:30 PM

"You're....41? But...I thought that....no....this can't be....no...." Shakila gave off a sigh "I guess....it is my own fault anyway....." she looked down at the piece of paper once again....she seemed to have gone silent for a few seconds, not even sure on what to say to Shelton now.

"This has been a huge mistake," Shelton couldn't meet her eye. "I just assumed you looked younger than you actually were, I didn't think..." he trailed off. "I didn't think. That was my problem."

Dr Landon came into the room, and bid the rest oif the m good morning " Morning guys, good to see most of you are up and helping yourselves to breakfast.. does anyone have the morning paper?' he asked as he headed towards the cereal container..

Shakila was still silent at the moment, as she didn't really know what to say back to him. She looked to the muffin next and just sighed.

"Everything happened so quickly. You almost died in Trinity Facility, and I came to rescue you, and then we wound up in the closet, and then--" The words stuck in Shelton's throat.

After a few moments, he could finally speak again. "I let my impulses get the better of me. I don't know what to say, but I am so sorry..."

MrDrake · **Reply #2227 on:** June 01, 2010, 09:26:58 PM

"Don't be....it's not your fault..." Shakila finally spoke, but a little quietly "I should've been thinking more clearly myself....but no....I let my instincts take over, act first....think later sort of thing...."

She glanced up at Shelton "I guess....I guess you could say that it is all my fault in the end....usually is anyway...." she added on with a small little chuckle as well only for it to stop seconds later as she sighed a little bit.

"It's not your fault," Shelton shook his head. "You're seventeen, you don't know any better. I'm the adult, I'm the one who's responsible. I should have ended this before we stayed in the last hotel."

He finally managed to look up and meet her eyes. "I was just--I've been undercover for the last two months, in danger of dying any day, unable to even trust anyone...and you were the first person who seemed to think like me, and show interest in me. And you seemed so receptive, and I wanted so badly for it to work out--"

He broke off again. "--but I should have realized it couldn't. I took advantage of you, and I don't know how or if I'm ever going to forgive myself."

Shakila could not help but just scoff afterwards as she shook her head a little bit before getting up from the table she was at, loking at Shelton some more "Just.....just don't alright? We were both in the wrong...." she begun as she reached into her pocket, pulling out some cash she had on hand and looked at it "I'm going into town....I need a new laptop....." was all she could say in the end.

She really, just wanted to have some time to herself as well as actually getting another laptop and walked over to the receptionist to borrow the phone, calling a taxi to the hotel.

Once she was off the phone to the taxi company, she simply walked outside and sat down on the sidewalk, waiting for the taxi to arrive.

Shelton sat silently at the table for a while longer, than turned and started walking back to the room.

Werner saw him approaching. "I'm sorry, Shelton," he tried to reassure him. "I didn't want to tell you, but--"

Shelton just walked by without looking at him.

Werner stood in the hallway until Hans came up behind him, finished with his run. "Ready for breakfast?" Hans puffed, wiping his brow.

Soon enough, the taxi had arrived, to which Shakila got into it and told the driver to head into town. The taxi took off for town.

***

After a few minutes, they arrived in town as Shakila got out, paying the taxi driver before walking down the street, she was heading for a computer shop in general, yet, things were still on her mind about what Shelton had just said to her "How....how could I have been so stupid?" she asked herself as she walked on still.

She wasn't even paying attention to the area around herself either, nor on whom was watching her....a female fox....one whom had a smirk upon her face.

The female fox in question approached Shakila and spoke up straight away to her "Well....if it isn't one of Hailey's friends...."

"That voice...it sounds familiar....it can't be....can it?" Shakila thought as she turned around and came face to face with the female fox in question....Subject 19.

Neku smiled at Hailey, quickly stepping into the shower and kissing her.
"Hehe...Sleepyhead."
He teased softly...

Kagetora smiled at Kiara, sitting next to her.
"Agreed. Want me to get you anything?"
He asked softly, smiling gently...
____________________________________________________________________

Unknown to Shakila, a pair of figures had tailed her in the taxicab, and were now watching her talking to Subject 19 from a nearby rooftop...

MrDrake · **Reply #2233 on:** June 01, 2010, 11:18:38 PM

Hailey smiled back to Neku and kissed him in return "Yeah, I know.....I guess you can say I'm not a morning person" she spoke with a giggle and kissed him a second time.

***

Kiara gave off a small shrug back to Kagetora "Sure, that would be lovely actually" she smiled back to him.

***

"What are you doing here?" Shakila asked her, stepping back a little bit.

"Oh, you know, just hanging out in this godforsaken place" Subject 19 replied back, looking to Shakila some more as she stepped toward, not going to attack however.

"You're not here....to kill me are you?" Shakila asked back, still a bit iffy with talking to Subject 19.

Subject 19 however, just seemed to smirk back rather lightly "Oh no, I don't really plan on killing you....you're not really the one I'm after...." she took a glance around, her eyes settling upon the rooftop where the figure were supposedly before looking back to Shakila before starting to walk off, yet, she stopped a few feet away from her "Come....I wish to talk with you some more....unless of course, you wish to be all alone...."

Shakila's eyes widened a little bit from what Subject 19 had said, looking to the side a little bit before deciding to walk with her, but rather reluctantly.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #2234 on:** June 01, 2010, 11:27:50 PM

Neku smiled.
"It's all good. It's just another thing I love about you."
He said softly

Kagetora smiled and got up.
"Anything in particular you'd like?"
He asked...

Slash and Agito nodded to each other, then darted after Shakila and 19...

Anyone have the papoer? i want to check on the sports section' Aisha asked looking around at the others, before suipping from her drink

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #2236 on:** June 01, 2010, 11:33:28 PM

Hawkeye held the paper out to her.
"Here you go."
He said...

MrDrake · **Reply #2237 on:** June 01, 2010, 11:33:59 PM

"Aww" Hailey laughed some and gave him a bit of a nuzzle as well as she murred some as well from the water from the shower in general, that, and of course being with Neku still.

***

Kiara thought for a second and shrugged lightly "Whatever it is you can get, I'm not really all that picky you know, so you know, you can't do anything wrong there" she teased him a bit.

***

Subject 19 was now walking down the street with Shakila walking next to her, yet, she was all quiet. Subject 19 noticed that as she looked over to her "Not very talkative are we? No matter, that's a good thing....I don't need you to speak just yet....as I need to speak with you without any interuptions...." she glanced around for a moment before speakign again "What I need to know is this....why do you even care for those worthless friends of yours? What do they ever do for you?"

Shakila indeed, wanted to say something, but she was just unsure on what to actually say at the moment in regards to it.

"I mean, you're out here, all alone, none of your friends are around....seems like they just don't care for you in the end...." Subject 19 chuckled lightly.

"That's....not true...." Shakila replied back rather quietly.

"Face it....they have been using you all this time, they don't care what happens to you, as long as you can do their dirty little work for them" Subject 19 told her with a smirk as well.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #2238 on:** June 01, 2010, 11:37:21 PM

Neku murred happily, hugging her close and kissing her gently.

Slash and Agito looked down and waited, wanting to see where the conversation would go...

"Alright then. I'll be back soon." Aydin got off of the bed and stretched. Quickly putting on his pants and shirt, the Vulpine exited the room and went downstairs to find some food. He hoped he would find something they liked. For him, it was eggs and some bacon, for Aimee, it was more of the same, but he brought some cereal and milk in case she didn't like the first course.

Aydin took a seat downstairs, saying to himself that he would wait for five minutes for Aimee to come downstairs before going back upstairs with the food for her.
