Screaming, she bolted upright in her bed and wept. It was the same dream, the same nightmare that had plagued her for the past seven years. She buried her face in her knees and let the sobs wrack her body. Her bare legs were soon drenched with her tears and her sobs slowed, then on instinct, her hand reached for the razor she kept tucked away in the drawer beside the bed in the nightstand. She lifted her head and through the waviness of her slowly spent tears she cut, she put three on each wrist and bit her lip as she let her pain and freight and hopelessness bleed out of them.
Calm again, Alaea decided she should step out and explore, to relax herself so that she could fall asleep again. Slipping on a long sleeved zip up hoodie with wolves running across it, to hide the fresh gashes on her wrists she smiled a little and then she put on a pair of sweats and pulled on a pair of boots. Tucking her hands into the pockets of her hoodie she stepped outside and smiled as she breathed in the cool air. She decided she wanted to take a walk, just as the sun was beginning to rise. She smiled as she wandered through the streets of Sylian.
She stopped briefly to get some hot chocolate at one of the tiny little shops in the caverns as she passed by it. Wrapping her hands tightly around it and sipped cautiously on the sweet chocolate flavored drink. It was lovely. As she continued to wander, she found herself in the Open Fields. A half smile found its way to her lips as she paused in the long grass and dragged a hand through the soft seeds of a milkweed-like plant, scattering them to the breeze. As she looked toward the horizon she saw the first golden rays of the sunrise. Curling up gracefully on a rock she wrapped the hot chocolate in her hands again as the sun started to awaken the world.

Jayden walked up to the water and looked at it he tested it by kneeling down and putting a hand in and moving it back and forth. It was kinda cold but he would get used to it. He stripped down to his boxers set his glasses down with his clothes and dove in swimming around for a minute under the water before surfacing and shaking his head lightly to get the water out of his eyes. His arms and legs pumped to keep him surfaced. he swam a few laps then swam to the side and rested his arms on the shore taking a few minutes to relax but not wanting to get out.
He sighed it was nice but he was kind hungry luckily his bag wasn't every far and he could grab it from the water. He grabbed his bag pulled out a sandwich and bottle of water sat on the shore and ate, taking sips of his water. He looked up as a flock of birds flew by and smiled warmly. The sun was up by now and its glow warmed his face. and dried his wet hair some. His blue eyes sparkled a little with happiness. He needed the relaxation he was glad to have it too.

A sound caught her attention as the sun rose up. Her beautiful emerald eyes scanned the surroundings and fell upon the water and the dark haired young man in it. Slight embarrassment colored her cheeks as she looked down and away, unconsciously adjusting the sleeves of her hoodie over the slashes on her wrists then a soft clearing of her throat as her eyes travelled back to him, from her perch on the rock, a mere five feet from him, she saw that he was a rather handsome young man. Her embarrassment took over again and she pulled her eyes away again. How had he not seen her when he’d arrived? She didn’t know but she kind of liked the thought that she was a little bit invisible.

Jayden finished his sandwich and got out he walked over to a tree near were Alaea was and sat down still drinking his water he looked over and saw her he jumped and yelped. "Oh... He didn't see you there..... " He said startled and awkwardly. What was it with him running into girls lately third one this week jeez.... He drank some more of his water and looked at her. She was kinda cute. He smiled warmly

She looked up again as he sat beneath a tree near to where she was perched and sipped his water, Alaea hid a laugh as she watched him look at her, jump and yelp before he spoke, Oh...I didn't see you there... Alaea smiled softly at his startled awkwardness a moment. Then she spoke, her voice gentle, “I wouldn’t have noticed you either, had I not heard you mere seconds before.” She told him with a soft laugh as she spoke again, “You’re not very sneaky. I’m Alaea by the way, Alaea Khoal. What about you?” She had forgotten the fresh gashes and as the sun rose, she began to get warm.
She pushed the sleeves up a little ways, but the tug reminded her and she winced as she replaced the sleeves over her arms and instead decided to unzip the jacket, leaving her arms covered she dropped the hoodie off her shoulders revealing her teal tank top. The gashes were effectively hidden. She wasn’t ready to really…explain them to this stranger yet. It was hard for her not to feel comfortable in his company though, he had dark hair and gorgeous blue eyes and lovely facial features and body stature, and his smile, it comforted her.
She tucked a loose strand of her hip length blonde hair behind a lovely ear and her emerald eyes brightened a little, she needed more friends, people she could trust and that understood her enough to keep her secrets. Maybe this handsome young man could be her first friend, outside of her big brother who had come back and who was now in a happy relationship of his own, her brother’s partner wasn’t too bad either. She smiled inwardly to herself. The sun wrapped her in a warm embrace and she felt her own warm, graceful smile claim her features. It was a good idea to come out this morning. She sipped on the last little bit of her cocoa as her emerald eyes fell back to the young man.

He watched for for a minute listened to her speak and chuckled a bit. "I wasn't trying to be sneaky... I'm Jayden... Jayden Grey..." He said and smiled again the noticed her wince as she tried to pull her sleeves up. He then watched her pull them back down, unzip her hoodie and let hang on her, but it hid her arms. He wasn't going to ask , he didn't want to be nosy though he was a bit concerned. He bit his lip and watched her movements and his smiled brightened. She had blonde hair that fell to her hips, fun to play with. That is if he got close enough to her to be his self. Bright vivid green eyes you couldn't help but fall in love with.He looked her up and down, she was a smallish girl but still very pretty.
She had a tank top on so if you looked down you could see cleavage he kept his eyes up at her face mostly her eyes, he loved them.He hoped he wasn't creeping her out by staring at her he was trying to get a good look at her so he could remember her if they ever saw each other again. She has gorgeous facial features, the second pretty girl he had seen this week but he liked this one better for some reason he wasn't sure why. He wanted her but didn't try probably already had a boyfriend. Really she was gorgeous, why would some one as pretty as her not have one. He sighed quietly and finished his water off then sat the bottler down next to the tree."You can call me Jay if you want, that's what my friends and my brother call me." He almost whispered, he was starting to get shy with her which was a huge sign that he liked her, though he just met her.

Alaea laughed a little as the young man spoke, I wasn't trying to be sneaky... I'm Jayden... Jayden Grey... a lovely name for a lovely young man. She saw him staring and taking in her entirety and a slightly embarrassed smile claimed her lips as she shifted position, she hadn’t overlooked the fact he had seen her wince at pulling on her sleeves. Then she wiped away the embarrassment and left the smile as she watched him set his empty water bottle by the tree and she chuckled as she spoke, “You have a lovely name Jayden, and I see, I still think you could have managed it if you’d wanted.” She teased her voice not belying her shyness.
She smiled again as Jayden spoke once more, You can call me Jay if you want, that's what my friends and my brother call me. She sat back a little on her rock and chuckled softly, then as silently and gracefully as a cat on the prowl she stepped off her rock and joined Jay beneath the tree and fastened her emerald eyes on him once more, “Thank you, but I prefer to call you Jayden. By the way, I saw you catch my wince, don’t worry, it doesn’t bother me…” she paused and curved her legs off to her left, then she carefully rolled the sleeves up, revealing the still slightly raw cuts.
“…it’s the only way I know to calm myself when I wake up in a terror at night. It’s also I think, the main reason I’m still single, once everyone sees the scars they think I’m mad and don’t think they can handle being with me. But it only works for so long.” Then she almost violently ripped the sleeves back down over her arms and sighed softly. Her emerald eyes drifted away from Jayden for a moment and spoke again, “If only the people I came across would get close enough to me, I could explain it to them…that’s also why I’m eagerly awaiting the Janka hatching, because I know my Bondmate will understand me.” She sighed again and returned her gaze to Jayden and waited for a response.

He watched as she walked over to him sat down. "You may call me anything you want to my lady." He said and smirked then he watched as she pulled her sleeves up to reveal the cuts.he listened to her speak and nodded. "I don't judge people by that I'm sure your an amazing young woman. Also if you want you can come to my room when you have a nightmare instead of cutting I wouldn't mind talking to you and calming you down." He smiled softly as he spoke then tapped her chi twice as he did with his brother sometimes to get his attention. "I will stick with you too. I would love to get to know the lovely Alaea" He said softly. "I'm a Janka Candidate to" He nodded and leaned back a bit eyes still on Alaea his eyes drifting to her wrists then up her body slowly to he met her eyes again. He fixed his glasses which were starting to slip from his nose

A smile claimed her lips again as she listened to Jayden, You may call me anything you want to my lady. I don't judge people by that I'm sure you’re an amazing young woman. Also if you want you can come to my room when you have a nightmare instead of cutting I wouldn't mind talking to you and calming you down. I will stick with you too. I would love to get to know the lovely Alaea. I'm a Janka Candidate to. She moved closer to him and smiled as she answered him, “Really? You’re the first one I have met that didn’t judge me…” she leaned in close as he leaned back a little and then a half-smile claimed her lips.
She watched as he adjusted his glasses and then continued, “…do you really mean it Jayden? If you do, it might help if I knew which room was yours, one-twenty-eight is mine. But the trouble with this though, it’s gonna be hard for me to by-pass the razor in my terrors, it’s a natural instinct now…” she paused and a soft sigh slipped free as the smile reclaimed her lips before she continued, “…but I will try. Thank you Jayden, I’ve needed someone like you for the past six years. I would also like to get to know you Jayden.” She murmured softly and sidled a bit closer to him, wanting to feel comforted in his arms, forget the terror of the night before that had sent her out here to begin with. She waited.

Jayden watched her move closer to him each tie she spoke. He slowly slid his arms around her and pulled her close guessing she wanted to be held. "Okay I'm in room 130 also if you want I will sleep with you for a few nights so you can get used to coming to me." He spoke softly knowing the last time he held a woman he got his feelings hurt so he kept himself guarded. "I'm glad you want to get to know me as well.. I'm not to entertaining though." He sighed and ever so gently rubbed Alaea's back humming lightly

Snuggling in close as Jayden’s arms wrapped around her Alaea smiled softly as she listened to his words, Okay I'm in room 130 also if you want I will sleep with you for a few nights so you can get used to coming to me. I'm glad you want to get to know me as well…I'm not too entertaining though. As he rubbed her back gently and hummed, Alaea smiled and fastened her emerald eyes on his, “You’re only two rooms down…” a bright smile fell to her lips as she continued, “…how very convenient. And that might actually work…I’ve never tried it.” She said softly and smiled up at him.
All her worries were slowly beginning to dissipate as she rested her head against his shoulder. No man, well aside from Darren had ever willingly held her as he did, despite going through the same previous steps with them. It was refreshing to know that sometimes those types of men did exist, if not always in the places you looked for them. Another smile played on her lips, and a soft thought tugged on her mind, this is the most times she had smiled…ever. Realization struck her, her healing was slowly beginning. She settled close to Jayden and looked up at him, her eyes bright, he was helping her already, whether he knew it or not.

He smiled at Alaea as she spoke, she seemed glad that she was in his arms. "What me sleeping beside you for a few nights?" he asked making sure she agreed to it and didn't think he was trying to have his way with her, he would never do that he was taught to respect women and their bodies. He could see that he was helping her and stared into her eyes a urge to kiss those beautiful lips slowly creeping it's way into him. He leaned his head closer to hers and lifted his hand up to fix his hair then adjusted back to how he was before. "Bet you thought I was gonna kiss you huh?" He asked playfully. He had never acted like this before He had a light blush and his heart was beating fast He sighed softly and hummed louder.

Alaea nodded as she registered his words, What me sleeping beside you for a for a few nights? She smiled up at him and nodded in affirmation, as she watched him lean in closer then fix his hair and then move back away again as he spoke again, a playful hint under his words, Bet you thought I was gonna kiss you huh? She laughed aloud as she turned away a moment and then returned her gaze again, catching the slight blush, “I did actually…” she teased a little herself as she continued, she could feel the speed of his heart, “…your heart tells me you still want to…” she smiled and held his gaze.
She chuckled softly as she moved in a little closer and spoke, her voice low, “You can if you want, I won’t stop you.” Then she moved back, a playful smirk claiming her lips as she tilted her head and locked her emerald eyes on Jayden again. She really did want to taste his lips, but she kept herself from throwing herself at him to do it, afraid to put him off when they were this close to actually having something happening between them. The teasing, playful half-smirk still clung to her lips as she waited to see what Jayden might do with that one.

He blushed a bit deeper at him words. "Yeah I like you.. I want to get to know you a little better before I do any of that though, so would you tell me more about you?" He asked smiling gently. He really wanted to kiss her now and he leaned closer trying to resist it.One little kiss couldn't hurt could it? He leaned in closer and kissed her cheek then smirked pulling away.

Alaea smiled again and listened as his lovely voice filled her ears, Yeah I like you…I want to get to know you a little better before I do any of that though, so would you tell me more about you? Her lovely eyes met his once more, returning his gentle smile, she watched as he leaned in closer to kiss her and then he brushed her cheek with his lips and leaned back with a smirk. A Playful pout claimed her lips as she looked at him and spoke, “I like you too. Oh my, a perfect gentleman that knows how to tease and play.” She laughed then and met his eyes once more.
“Okay, I’ll be a good girl, what would you like to know about me Jayden?” She asked and rested a hand on his chest a moment as she waited for him to answer that inquiry. Then a thought plagued her mind a moment, What can I tell him? She thought and threw the idea around her mind, he would probably want to know exactly what it was that had caused her to cut herself, that was a simple answer, but what else would he want to know about her? Why she was a Janka Candidate? Another simple answer. She banished the cloud of uncertainty and waited for him to respond.
