Chapter 6 – Urichti's Room.

Itchiru wondered a little on how her room would look like considering how nice his room had been, she bit her lip a little thinking back to when she had called him her boyfriend. The blush on her cheeks grew yet again as she wondered how he had reacted to that and hope he would not feel bad that she had said so.... tough she had wanted to be his girlfriend she could not deny that.. she liked him alot and he was kind to her...Gentle and... Well he made her feel like she was a normal person when he was around her.. she smiled a little as she kept walking along the corridor's.

"I'm sure it must have been a little shocking seeing me like that... one thing i can thank Lorance for is that all his torture... Well it have made me really strong even tough i do not look like it..." she said softly and bit her lip "tough..I'm happy my towel didn't fall of when i jumped... if it had i am not so sure that i could be acting at all..." she said her cheeks burning in embarrassment as she looked at her feet while walking beside him.

Niuwq noticed the sadness in her tone as she spoke. The way she seemed to be unsure if she was playing the part of Urichti good enough. "I think you're doing just fine. I mean...you did leave Aya and her gang speechless, after all." He said with a chuckle, shaking his head as some of his still slightly damp hair would stick to his face. He brushed the strands aside with his hand. "I know it is hard for you to act in such a way...You are different from Urichti..more kind...she is...pure evil...But do not worry, soon, you will no longer have to act..." He said and paused frowning slightly.

Yes...once she was home she could be her normal self again, couldn't she?...But at what cost?...His body would tense as he recalled the memories she had shared with him. It was bone chilling, and her echoing screams would linger on his mind, His stomach twisting as if he were ready to wretch, but he kept it down, clearing his throat instead as he attempted to shove aside the thoughts.

Sense she didn't know were her room was she just had to follow him.. In her world her sell had been in the deepest part of Lorance Prison were no one could hear her scream in pain when he would torturer her for hours and it was not the nicest thing to be living in.... all she had was the torture bench that was more or less soaked in her own blood after he cut her up for fun. Itchiru shacked her head as she rid her self of the thoughts and looked back at Niuwq whit a light smile on her natural red lips. as her long blond hair flew behind her from the ponytail.

Slowly, they came to a room and he paused at the door. He had...never seen Urichti's room in person. Even he didn't know what was in there. "Ah...just remember...We are allowed to decorate our rooms however we see fit...You..may not like it..." He warned her glancing down at her. His eyes growing wide, just noticing then her new dress. Perhaps because he had been so deep in thought with other things...."W-what? Where did you get that dress?" He asked, almost tripping over his own words as his face grew bright.

That...wasn't the dress she had been wearing...But...it fit her so perfectly, the pure white of the gown and the lovely flow of the red ribbon. Her long blonde hair tied up neatly as it moved down her slender shoulders and back. For a moment, he could only stare, but when his eyes fell closer to her chest, he gasped, quickly looking away. Niuwq placed a hand against his face, feeling the heat radiating from his cheeks. Jeez....He couldn't just stare at her like that, it was rude!

Itchiru looked at him softly as she kept walking down the hall beside him, he was right when they left for there jury she didn't have to ac't... It both made her happy and sad at the same time because that would mean she was a step closer to get home.... Her only comfort in that was that it might take 2 years to get the items they needed sense they would be going by foot. she nodded a little "I know" she said softly and blushed a little as she smiled at him.

She nodded a little as the thought of how her room would be were a little frightening. "I know...I'm sure her taste and mine when it comes to rooms are different.....But..I mean how bad can it be...Your room were nice and pleasant" she said softly as she kept walking. As he mention her dress she blushed a little "When i opened my locker my old dress were gone and this was what i found in its place" she said and blushed deeper "Do....Do you like it?" she asked as she looked up at him whit a light smile. she did hope he liked her dress... She thought it fit her nicely but in away his opinion felt to mean more to her then her own.

Niuwq didn't seem to give a real answer at her question of whether or not he enjoyed the dress. Instead, he only give her a slight nod, unable to find the right words. Yes, he did enjoy the dress. Perhaps a little too much...It seemed to show off the figure of her body just perfect and at times he would have to force himself not to stare.

"A-anyways...yah...your room..." He said his heart racing still from having examined her body. He slowly push open the door, which let out a creek in response. The room was dark, but the objects could be clearly seen around it. Walls painted an almost blood red...A black silk bed with pillows...A few skulls and other interesting, yet revolting decoration choices at the same time. Niuwq slowly walked in flicking on the light to brighten the view up. But the view didn't get better...Torn books...burnt objects....It was as if it were the room of a witch doctor...Symbols and spells...Would....Itchiru even really feel comfortable sleeping here? Even he felt as if there were tiny eyes on him, and suddenly, he didn't want to be there...But he kept his ground..."So...this is it.."

As he stopped in front of the door that seemed to be her room... She stopped to and took a seep breath.. She watched him open the door and she walked inside whit him, Tough as she watched him take on the lights her stomach felt like it was turning as she looked at the dark red room.... The black bed...Torn books...burnt objects....It was as if it were the room of a witch doctor or some sick Woodoo...Symbols and spells...

She bit her lip as she looked more around the room as she took a few steps in.. It was cold and there was no way she would be able to sleep inside there.. "I...Its...um...." seeing a skull she jumped back a little "I...um...Can we go back to your room...." she asked and looked back at him "I..I cant stay here...." she said low and looked down her cheeks blushing on what she were about to ask "C...Can i stay whit you in stead....I...I wont be able to sleep in here...its ...its to scary and dark and the hole aura of this room is wrong...." she said low and bit her lips. looking back at him her eyes were pleading.

He frowned, however, making note of her reaction towards the room as she gazed about, perhaps just as unsure and confused with the cold and frightening decorations. When she asked him of staying in his room instead he give a quick answer, perhaps not even thinking about it. "Of course." He said blushing slightly at how quick he had said so.

It...wasn't as if he wanted anything embarrassing to happen between the two, but he understood just as well as seeing how...strange this room felt...and knew that even he would be unable to sleep in such a place. He definitely didn't expect her to stay there..."C-come on...Let's get out of here.." He said softly and quickly leading her out and turning off the light, closing the door behind them. Honestly, they couldn't get out of that little hole fast enough.

But, once they were out in the hallway, it felt as if a great weight was lifted from their shoulders. He sighted heavily, rubbing at his head. Though, he was slightly nervous of having her sleep over... He...did only have one bed..."Um...Well, I suppose I could sleep on the floor and you could take the bed." He said softly and were beginning to wonder what possibly could have happened to her clothes....

She had been the only one in the lockers, it seemed...Except for maybe...Aya...Had they something to do with it?...It seemed unlikely, but who else would have done such a thing?...None the less, he would leave the thought for now. Arriving at his room as he opened it and allowed her in; closing the door behind him.

Itchiru nodded as she walked back out of the room whit him seeming happy to have left the creepy room behind as she walked besides him, she was glad that he at least didn't tell her no to stay whit him because she would have never been able to sleep in that room. she looked up at him softly and smiled "thank you.... oh and you don't have to sleep on the floor.." she said and blushed deeply feeling a bit bad at the thought of him sleeping on the floor like an animal... It just wasn't right..

Biting her lip she looked down toward the floor as she kept walking "I...I can sleep on your couch...I would never forgive my self if you had to sleep in the floor instead of your own bed....." she said softly as she looked up at him him biting her lips. Her head felt a bit heavy from the little fight between her and Aya as well and she was happy she had shocked the woman enough to not follow her for a while at least.

Itchiru looked a Niuwq softly and took his hand in hers lightly as she felt a little better at least whit him around her, it was strange how at ease he made her feel "you.... you know... we can just both sleep in the bed... that way I mean no one have to sleep uncomfortable.....I...I mean its just an idea.." she said blushing deeply as the words came out of her mouth. As she were not sure on how to say things like that, she hand never slept in the same bed as a man but she trusted him enough to be comfortable doing so. when they came to his room she softly walking inside stopping on the middle of the floor, looking at him wondering what he would say of that idea as she blushed deep moving her ponytail over her shoulder so her blond white hair stretched down over her chest and down to her knees. Her fingers softly playing whit her hair nervously.

Niuwq flinched slightly in surprise as he felt her fingers against his palm, their hands holding one another as he glanced over at her. staring at her with wide glittering yellow eyes. Her hands were...warm..yet obviously much smaller than his and more feminine in his grasp. He...liked it...He only smiled, allowing their hands to hold for a moment before they entered the room.

Though, at her mention of them simply sharing the bed so neither of them would have to sleep uncomfortably, he stuttered a little hesitate his face going red as he watched her. The way she stood at the center of his room. He let his eyes examine her once more...That long beautiful hair as she moved over her shoulder....It was so long...He just wanted to run his fingers through it...Just wanted to touch that beautiful doll-like skin...So perfect...Those red lips...

He shacked his head, placing his palm against his forehead. God! What was he thinking?! It felt like he was going crazy...SHE was making him crazy..for HER...He needed to forget these thoughts...let them go...Sleeping in the same bed...That wasn't anything strange, of course!...Right? Just necessary so they were both comfortable? "I...u-um...I mean, if you are ok with that, of course..." He said slowly trying to find the right words...

Itchiru looked at him and blushed as her fingers softly played whit her hair shyly. "I...I don't mind...I trust you and I feel safe close to you" she admitted her cheeks glowing hot whit her blush. she bit her lip softly as she looked at him as she could not help having her heart jump at the thought of sleeping next to him. she softly walked over to the bed sitting down the dress softly flowing around her as it stopped at her upper knee.

He was unsure himself, his heart already racing at the thought. He was...much too nervous and shy...Would he even be able to sleep if they shared the same bed together? He...supposed he could try...Clearing his throat he looked around. "Well...If you decide you would like to shower, there is the bathroom...If you get hungry..I do have a few snacks lying around here...Or you can just head to the cafeteria..." He explained walking over to his dresser to look at the clothes inside. "I...um...don't have really any girl clothes...But if you need to change clothes, I have a few things you could bother to wear in here..." He said realizing then that she only had one thing to wear...and that was the dress she had somehow found in her locker after the spa...

"I'm might take a shower sense i didn't get to in the spa... " she said and blushed before she looked at him "um.. can i borrow a T-shirt to sleep in and walk in after i am done in the shower?" she asked gently as she looked over at him, she didn't want to sleep in the dress as it was the only thing she had to go in beside her panties and she didn't know how he would react to her just wandering around in his room just wearing her underwear.

She looked at him softly and blushed as she could not help to like him... And when he had let her hold his hand it was like little tingles were going out trough her body. she mentally slapped her self ~Bad Itchiru.. your not supposed to fall in love while you are here... it will just make leaving that much harder...but.. i think I'm to late..~ she thought softly as she looked back down on her hands. She wondered if she even would be able to sleep whit him beside her.. or be to nervous.. Tough she felt safe and relaxed whit him so she was sure it would be fine.

Niuwq seemed to be unknowing of her blushing, or even her more nervous actions as she looked at her hands, thinking of as they had held each others hands. In fact, he, himself, didn't think much of that matter. Not because he hadn't enjoyed it, but because that he knew if he thought about it too hard, he would only fall harder for her. He was trying so hard...so hard not to fall for her, but she was making it so difficult...

The cute way she would stutter...The occasional times he would catch the red coming to her cheeks...That sweet way she spoke...so gentle...How beautiful she was...It was driving him crazy...He sighted softly, running his fingers through his hair as she asked for a shirt to wear to sleep. "Of course, of course." He muttered, sounding almost frustrated, but not at her....at his thoughts...Not that she would know that...

He started to dig through his drawer, producing a large white t-shirt that easily reach to just above her knees, being that he was taller than her. He then turned around, tossing it to her with a soft smile. "There you are. There should be a clean towel in the bathroom...Take your time..." He said as he moved towards the bed, plopping down to sit at the edge of the bed as he smiled at her.

He usually only slept in his boxers...Quite more comfy, he had to admit. But, being that Itchiru would be sleeping with him, he would keep his clothes on to keep things less awkward...Perhaps change into a pair of comfy shorts and a t-shirt while she showered...At least that way he could be somewhat comfy... Itchiru took the T-shirt softly and then took a step back "Thank you..." she said low biting her lips as her mind was raising whit her thoughts. HE had sounded frustrated when she had asked for the T-shirt..Was it something she had said.. Was she being there bothering him... Her thoughts were screaming at her as she kept her gaze down and walked into the bath room, and whit a sigh she looked at her self in the mirror.

She started the water so it would be warm when she walked into the shower, turning back to the mirror she took off the ribbon in her hair letting her hair fall loosely down behind he then slowly stripping off her white dress and panties. She looked at her self in the mirror and could still see some of the scars after the hours of torture she had been trough... she hated the scars... Shaking her head she walked into the shower closing the shower door behind her as she let the warm water fall down on her..

Niuwq watched as she took the clothes and retreat into the bathroom. For a moment, he simply sat there at the edge of the bed, thinking...listening to the soft hiss of the shower as it came to life, the droplets smacking against the tub. He could hear her fumbling with her clothes...stepping in as she pulled over the curtains to keep the water from spilling out onto the bathroom ground....

Slowly, he stood up then, walked over to his drawers as he tugged off his clothes, leaving himself naked until he took on a loose black t-shirt and matching shorts. With that, he kicked his dirtied clothes to the side along with the other pile of clothes he had quickly thrown together when she had first arrived...

He wander back towards the bed, flopping back onto the soft fabrics and resting his head against the pillow, staring up at the ceiling...He then allow his own mind to wonder as she bathed, to her...to their future journey...Right up until the point, he imagined, that he would have to give her his last goodbyes...The thought caused his heart to slightly cringe...And he scoff slightly at the feeling... Maybe he was too late...Maybe...already...he had gotten too close...For the thought alone hurt his heart....

Her hair clingers to her body as she let her mind wander as she wondered what she had done wrong to make him frustrated whit her.. she softly washed her arms, chest, stomach legs and back as she lightly bit her lips the feeling of... sorrow in her stomach gripping into her as she bit her lips. She washed her long hair as she closed her eyes trying to rid her self from the thoughts, she just figured she had to be more closed... and try not to bother him to much.... yes that's what she was supposed to do...tough she had all ready fallen for him and she knew it was bad... she took a bit longer in the shower then she had expected do to her thoughts wandering all over.

Rinsing out the soap from her body and hair she got out and started to dry her self, looking into the mirror she smiled a little as she put on the T-Shirt and pulled her panties back on as well. she didn't have a bra so she could not take it on but nicely folded her dress before she walked back out of the bath room.. Her hair was hanging lose down her back and even tough the T-shirt were big and long to her it was also tight enough to still show off her curves hips and chest. but not overly to much just enough to leave some for the imagination. "I'm done" she said softly as she walked over to the other side of the bed sitting down.
