((Lost power a few times and a some locals had no power for Christmas Day itself. Are you going to post first for the others or should I?))

Nathan and Delilah were loudly arguing in the front hall of the castle, with raised voices and angry words until it got to the point Delilah slapped her brother and stormed off, on the brink of tears.

Blaze came out of the front door, a small bag of clothes and food over his shoulder. He saw Snow and gained a guilty expression on his face.

By the time he walked out, she looked at him. "Going somewhere?"
_____

Garnet put her hands over her ears aas she heard them.

**Fruit-Pastilles** Sat 18 Jan - 8:00

"I recently recieved correspondence from Nathan. I have a contract."

Delilah sat on a bench in one of the gardens, hiccuping softly as she started to quietly cry.

Vampire-Apprentice Sat 18 Jan - 8:05

She was regretting his answer, but she asked him anyway. "What does this mean?"
____

Garnet moved to lie on the bench, and she shut her eyes.

**Fruit-Pastilles** Sat 18 Jan - 8:10

"I'm going to have to leave for a week or so."

Delilah rubbed her face quietly and tried to control her tears.

Vampire-Apprentice Sat 18 Jan - 8:13

She closed her eyes to stop the look of saddness as she fought to keep her emotions in check, and she opened them against after a few seconds. "Well I can't say that im surprised, just...um...come home in one piece okay?" She slid into the house.
______

Garnet stayed as she was, she wasn't going to find anyone, because if they wanted to be with her, they would most likely find her.

**Fruit-Pastilles** Sat 18 Jan - 8:26

"Nathan is waiting for me to slip up. As soon as I fail to act up to standard he's going to use it as an excuse to prevent us leaving as we want." He followed her in quietly.

Nathan eventually sat on the floor by Garnets bench having found her, staring at a tree completely opposite.

Vampire-Apprentice Sat 18 Jan - 8:29

"Do you think I care about leaving the palace? All I've ever wanted was to be with you and see you, and now i hardly see you at all, so would it would t really make a difference."
_______

Garent didn't notice

**Fruit-Pastilles** Sat 18 Jan - 8:38

"I cared. I cared about having something to our name and something to be proud of. Didn't want Nathan controlling our lives of stopping what we want to have. You want a restricted life go back. I refuse to."

"How does one apologise?"

Vampire-Apprentice Sat 18 Jan - 8:41

"Blaze, you're still restricted. You're too busy doing what he asks to relax and enjoy it here, to enjoy us." She told him, wiping tears which had suddenly decided to flow.
_____

"I don't think you can."

**Fruit-Pastilles** Sat 18 Jan - 9:09

"Either I do monthly contracts or I get bound into servitude. In which I will never see you again because that means I'm not suitable for public life."

"I would like to attempt it at any rate."

Vampire-Apprentice Sat 18 Jan - 9:10

"That still won't be any different, Blaze I haven't seen you for one full day since we got here and we've been here for a while."
________

"Then go ahead."

**Fruit-Pastilles** Sat 18 Jan - 9:46

"It's Nathan's way of testing us. If I don't make it then he's won."

"I understand that I haven't been attentive but I apologise for my indiscretions."

Vampire-Apprentice Sat 18 Jan - 9:52

"Yeah and for how long? Until you die of exhaustion? Or before in sent away?"

"You're soon to be king, it is to be expected."

**Fruit-Pastilles** Sat 18 Jan - 10:16

"I'm doing this to prevent it getting to that point I promise."

"A title does not excuse my unsavoury actions."

Vampire-Apprentice Sat 18 Jan - 11:39

"I'm just as much to blame as you, and anyway if you wanted me around then you would have said." Garnet shrugged.

She looked at him before she wiped her. "Ugh in sorry that I'm being so emotional lately."

**Fruit-Pastilles** Mon 20 Jan - 0:58

"That still does not excuse me."

"Don't worry." Blaze kissed her head. "I'll be back as quick as I can."

Vampire-Apprentice Mon 20 Jan - 2:57

She shrugged.

She managed to kiss his lips. "I hope so."

**Fruit-Pastilles** Mon 20 Jan - 3:08

"Thank you for listening. But now I have to find Delilah and apologise to her too."

Blaze smiled weakly and then nodded before he left quickly and quietly.

Vampire-Apprentice Mon 20 Jan - 3:09

"She went that way." Garnet pointed in a direction.

She watched him leave.

**Fruit-Pastilles** Mon 20 Jan - 3:20

"Thank you. She told me I was ruining our marriage. I told her at least we were married whereas she probably would never be."

((Skip until Blaze))

Vampire-Apprentice Mon 20 Jan - 3:23

"Why can't you two just get along? But lets be fair, we're hardly ever near each other."

((ok))

**Fruit-Pastilles** Mon 20 Jan - 3:36

"My duties will end soon. I've learnt as much as I need to know."

Blaze came back after only four days as opposed to a week, missing the bag he had taken with him.

Vampire-Apprentice Mon 20 Jan - 3:39

When he came back, the door to their home was bolted shut and Snow was lying against it on the other side. The scent of another tiger hung in the air.
______

"Okay."

**Fruit-Pastilles** Mon 20 Jan - 3:55

Since Blaze was human he couldn't smell anything and simply knocked on the door. He left blood on the wood, as he was injured.

Nathan nodded quietly.
