OOC:
So, your real name is Alexa? :DD I'll think of something with that! :DDD
Don't worry. When I write by myself, I'm not very fond of it either. But that doesn't mean its bad, right? HAHA :D

OMG SECOND PAGE <3 ! *Gets excited when we get to next pages*

BIC:
Nikki kept a close eye on the two strangers, as he took care of the girl - Now known as Shayle -  with the first aid kit she handed him. Both of them didn't look familiar, but she kept studying the two - mostly the guy that looked her age. No familiarity though.

Finally, when he was finished, she frowned at his next comment about the situation.

 "So, you don't know how this happened at all?" She asked. She didn't wait for his answer, before sitting down gently on the bright blue couch next to where Shayle's feet were. "Honey..." She said, putting her hand on the girls calves, comfortingly - where there was no blood. The last thing she needed was getting sick from touching someone's blood. "Can you hear me?" She asked, waiting patiently for her response. Nikki guessed she could, since the stranger guy said she was saying someting before.

She looked up at the guy, while waiting for a reaction from the girl, and said, "What's your name?"

[[Yes that is my name :D Ahaha and true^^ I guess no one really truly likes their own writing. Yes, it's always exciting to reach a new pagee'~~]]

Shawn was about to answer her but she sat down on the couch beside, Shayle and he guessed that the question wasn't supposed to be answered, but he answered it anyway. "No, I have no idea at all, I just found her there."

Shayle blinked twice and looked at her. "Yes.. I can hear you" she rasped, barely able to speak at all. The condition she was in made Shawn feel angry. Not at Shayle, of course, but at whoever/whatever did this to her and/or how it happened. She was young, probably around the age of nine or ten, which didn't make the situation any better. Shawn left his thoughts and looked at the teenage girl.

 "What's your name?"

He blinked once or twice before reluctantly answering. "My name is, Shawn Kazos... and you are?" Shawn felt that it was only right for him to know her name as well. Afterall, it would be rather strange if he left here without knowing her name, wouldn't you think so? He waited for her answer and looked back at Shayle, the poor child. She sounded as if she needed a drink of water. "Do you have a cup of water that you can give her?... She sounds parched.." Asking others for things wasn't Shawn's specialty, he was the type to earn everything on his own so that he didn't have to be a pest and ask others for things.

"Weird..."

Nikki thought out loud at this 'Shawn's' comment about finding her on the groud out of nowhere. Thoughts filled her head as she tried to ponder what had happened. Maybe a rape? An adult enraged and wanting to let it out on someone who couldn't fight back? Maybe it was all just an accident, and some one left her there because they might have gotten in trouble. Maybe, it was a suicide attempt. But, she's never heard of a little girl commiting suicide.

Nikki smiled at Shayle, glad that she was alright - at least, for now.

"Good." She started, before adding, "After we get you settled, will you tell us what happened? It's alright if you can't. If it's too much. We don't want you to worry right now." She kept her voice very calm and gentle, not wanting Shayle anxious.

"Yeah, I do."

She said , and quickly went to go get a cup of water. After doing so, she came back to the girl, and gave her the cup. "Here." She whispered, handing the cup to her. She looked back up at Shawn, and said, "I'm Nikki. Nikki Smith." Before looking back at Shayle worriedly while still talking to Shawn. "Are you knew to this community at all? I take walks around the community all the time, and I've never seen you."

OOC:
BUMPSIES <3

[[Sorry Charm <333 I've been kinda... Delayed O-O]]

Shayle just drank the cup of water and said: "Nap", before closing her eyes and falling asleep. Soon, her snoring filled the room. She didn't snore loudly, more of a small whistle. Shawn sighed and watched as her chest rose slowly up, and then down. At least she's well enough...  He blinked when, the girl now revealed as Nikki, answered him. "It's nice to meet you. Though, the circumstance is awful"

 "Are you knew to this community at all? I take walks around the community all the time, and I've never seen you."

Shawn smirked at that comment. He practically considered this town as his own little empire. "Yeah I live here, I don't go outside during the day much... you could call me more of a nightime person. Sleep during the day, awake at night... Almost like a vampire" he chuckled quietly, not wanting to scare her or make it obvious. He had been successful at hiding what he was from others. As far as anyone else knew, he was just as human as them. Of course his family knew, they only hid themselves so that they wouldn't be hunted or something. Shawn thought it was all silly. If someone tried to hunt me... it'd be the end of them.

OOC:

It's alright Kool <3

BIC:

Shawn was very much correct. The circumstance was not the best, she agreed. Nikki smiled as Shayle quickly fell sleep. She was dieing to know what happened. She deserved to know at least, since she helped the poor girl. Looking back up at Shawn, she did a soft chuckle to show that she knew he was kidding.  

"Right. But, if you really were a vampire, we'd have the life sucked out of us already." When she said 'we', she was referring to Shayle, her parents and herself. Oddly enough, she was starting to feel tired. But, she would never leave a stranger down here, unattended. Who knows, this could all be some distraction, so that when Nikki leaves they steal the Smith's belongings and then run out before their caught.

That thought reminded her that she did leave them for a while, while getting the rags, and first aid kit. And, Shawn was the one that suggested to get it. She glared for a moment at Shawn, and said,

"Show me what's in your pockets. All of it." This was more of a test, of course. This guy could hide something in his pants, or shoe. But, to see if he was guilty, she'd look at his reaction to her command about his pockets. If it made her suspicious, she wouldn't be afraid to strip the man down until she was sure.

OOC:
K-koool? D:

[[Sorreh D: Res was being all bleh to me yesterday xD So I was on Gaia and Facebook all day lol and watching anime]]

Shawn sighed and took off his shoes, not objecting or questioning her. He couldn't help but think of some funny thougts or remarks that he could have made but he kept quiet. Shawn handed her his shoes, which very very expensive, and then took off his shirt as well. He did indeed feel better, his shirt was soaked and now he could at least dry off. Just by looking at him you could tell he was well built and that he worked out. He was one to lift weights during the day in his house. Strength, was something that was important to him, everything his father had taught him about was strength and how 'important' it was. Of course, being brought up this way, Shawn believed him.

He blinked and looked at her, waiting to see if the inspection was over. My pants..? That'll be interesting.. He almost smiled at this thought but he didn't, hoping that it wouldn't come to that. Besides, what in the world could he hide in his pants? Other than... Now that thought did make him smile, almost made him laugh but he remembered that he was told to keep quiet, and so he controlled himself.

OOC:
Gaia? :D
BIC:

Nikki smiled satisfied as she grabbed the shoes, did a quick run through, and carefully put them on the front entrance door mat that said 'Welcome' in different colored letters. "Thanks." She said, just loud enough for only him to hear - not wanting to wake up her parents. She tried to look serious as she 'inspected' him, but finding nothing she could feel her face blush just by knowing in her head she was admiring his torso while inspecting.
"Put the shirt on." She mumbled, refusng to admit that he was clean. "But, if I find out that I'm missing anything your my first suspect." She added, a bit louder purposely for him to hear.

OOC:
^^ Sorry. Failure. :D

[[Yeees, Gaia. :DD It's NOT a fail ;3]]

Shawn smiled and said: "That's fine with me, I totally understand" he was reffering to the "Your my first suspect", part. He sighed and put his shirt back on and then he looked back at Shayle; the sounds she made when she slept made him smile a little. She's adorable.. "Hey, Nikki. What if Shayle, doesn't wake up 'till morning? Then we'd have a problem...." The thought had just popped into his head. Shayle seemed exhausted and he couldn't stay here all night, he had to get going soon. The sunlight wasn't his problem, he could go outside during the day, unlike many in his family. Shawn was what you would call... the black sheep of them all. What, with him being the only one able to walk in the light. The only reason why he DIDN'T go out was because the sunlight made him a little drowsy and weak, as if it drained him of his strength. It didn't weaken him so much like: OMG! It was just he hated that feeling; being weak wasn't something he enjoyed.

OOC:
What's Gaia? :P
I'm trying to rest my fingerrrrs because I have this thing like arthritis where I'm typing to much. I'd have to get surgury if I ignored it and made it worse, so I won't be on as much. But, I'm not going on a haitus, so...Yeah :D

BIC:

Nikki rolled her eyes when her back was toward Shawn. She hated being wrong, and right now she felt like she was. He didn't steal a thing.
When she looked back at him, she said, "Well... I don't think my parents will be very happy with you two being here. Do you know where she lives? If not, maybe she can stay with yo-" She couldn't finish, for she heard a door open and close up stairs. "Oh gosh!" She exclaimed in barely a whisper before she looked at Shawn and said, "Help me pick her up. You have to get out of here!" And with that she started picking up Shayle. Foot steps sounded in the hall, and then everything was silent. She guessed they heard noise but didn't care enough to come down and see what the ruckus was.
"Help me." She command again, much more calm. Her parents weren't the problem anymore, bu she still felt that they should leave.

[[ Gaia is another site that I only go on to roleplay xD But it's awesome; you have an avatar and a car and house etc. Oooh that's fine then, sorry for being so late on posting... I've been really busy :O]]

Shawn didn't panic, he wasn't worried about her parents finding him; he could vanish in seconds if he had wanted. He walked over to her and picked up Shayle, with no effort at all and he walked over to the door. "Hey, Nikki. You should drop by my house to see how she's doing later.. If you want I mean" he added with a look at the sleeping child. She stirred a little and hugged his arms, looking rather comfy. "I live on the hill at the end of Shuezno Street" He whispered before walking out of her house, and into the fresh air.

[[Fail ;C]]

[[Omg, I started doing brackets now too. xD
Like two days ago.
So don't think I copy D:
And, I'm going to check that site out, becuase I like roleplayyinngggggggg alot <3 ]]

Smirking at seeing Shawn effortlessly pick up Shayle, Nikki walked them both to the door.
"I think I will." She whispered back as she watched them leave, then closed the door.
There was no more footsteps, but she still felt relieved that they left. She wouldn't know what she would have said as an excuse for them being inside.
Finally feeling tired, she quickly cleaned up any trace of Shawn and Shayle being there - the rags, first aid kit, ETC... - she went up to her bedroom and easily fell asleep.

[[omg fail for me also.
Timeee skiiip to tomarrroww?]]

[[Lol it's no problem, Charm <333 I know you don't copy :3 and yes.]]

Time Skip >:)

Shawn had been busy with taking care of, Shayle; she was more of a handful than he had thought she would be. She would complain about it being too dark in his house and he had told her to cope with it, no way was he going to make it brighter; light meant weakness and that would create a cranky Shawn. Shayle was always thirsty and hungry and she still wouldn't tell him what had happened. I don't want to have kids, he joked to himself as he got her a glass of water. "Shayle, I'm not your slave. Calm down alright?" He told her, kindly of course, she was only a child afterall. Shayle looked up at him and frowned saying: "I'm sorry, Shawn.. I just want to go home" Shawn sighed and said: "I would take you home if you would tell me what happened and where you live" But Shayle shook her head, refusing to tell him.

[[I've decided to call you... Olio...
I looked up what 'Koolio' meant in a internet dictionary, and it said it wasn't a real word... So, it gave me suggestions of what I could have been looking for. And, I fell in love with 'Olio' so...Yeah.. xD Your MY OLIO now <3
I'll reply at 2:30. I don't want to post, and then have that glitch happen that always happens around two, you know? ]]

[[Yeah I get you :3 and Okay :DDD I'm OLIO <33 I love eet *snuggles*]]

[[ Sorry Olio! By the time I could start replying again, I didn't see this thread DDDD: ]]

The next morning, Nikki already had plans for the day. For some reason, she was ironically excited about going to Shawns. She guessed it was because she was still worried about Shayle.
But, part of her felt that it was Shawn she wanted to see also. He seemed... Nice.
"Mom!" Her voice bellowed throughout the colorful house. "I'm going out!"
Before she could hear a reply from her mother, she left the house, and started for a jog to the direction where Shawn had said he lived.
Shuezno Street was to the right. Once she got to the hill, she saw a house that she guessed was Shawns'. Nikki started jogging a little faster to get up the hill.
Walking up the porch, she found herself all of a sudden worried if her forehead was too sweaty, or if her hair was really frizzy. With one hand she wiped her forehead, and with the other, she smoothed down her hair. Rolling her eyes at being so paranoid, she finally knocked on the door lightly. All of a sudden realizing that there could be sweat marks under her arms. Refusing to embarress herself, and have him catch her checking, she ignored the thought.
