The One He Tried To Save [Audrey.]

[kenshin]

Tyler Scott, Kyukaku, The names were stuck in his mind throughout the transfer from 'There' to 'Here'. He was a man that he tried to save from unfair judgement. He was one step away from getting him out of the slammer, But then the incident happen and it was all gone. He was wondering if the man was ever released. But from then on, he was a bit depressed from that whole ordeal. And so today was total hell for the Italian. A fight with a small group of Hircinians, A pain loving psycho who tried to get him pounced by the Hircinians, and now...His mouth still tasted a small tab of blood in it, and it wasen't his own.

He sat there by himself, in an ordinary restaurant that usually serves breakfest. His hands held the styrafoam cup that surprisingly held water. He wasen't paying close attention the environment beside him, and really didn't notice the lovely female enter this fine establishment. The dark ring under his eyes ment that he himself, haven't gotten a moments rest from the nightmares he has currently endured. "I wish...I wish i could of helped him" He said in his grim voice.

[Audrey Pierce]

"Another gorgeous day and I have no idea what to do with it," Audrey muttered as she walked along the seemingly empty sidewalk. Couples passed her by, holding hands and giggling to inside jokes. She lowered her head in jealousy and tried to ignore them. Seeing the happy couples reminded her of her love for Tyler, also known as Kyukaku. She was not sure where exactly he was at this moment, but she had wished he was right next to her to enjoy the day with her.

Whatever he's doing, I hope he has a smile on his face.

A small restaurant attracted Audrey's eye as she stopped at the front door. She was not exactly hungry, but she decided to enter anyway. She tugged at the door knob towards her and entered.

The place seemed cozy and had a fair amount of customers. But one in particular caught Audrey's eye. His body language made him seem to be in a self-loathing state of mind. Her head tilted to the side slightly as she tried to read his facial expression. Dark rings under his eyes showed that extreme restlessness he was in right now. She frowned and then bit down on her lower lip.

Perhaps he would like some company.

She walked towards the stranger, her hands holding onto each other behind her. She stopped at his table and looked down at him. Her face was calm, with a slight smirk peeking through,"The Sun is shining and there's not a cloud in the sky. What could be bothering you?"

[kenshin]

His eyes immediatly flashed open at the sound of a womans voice. To be honest, it has been long since a woman has even walked near him, let alone talk to him. He turned his head at a very slow pace, and through the corner of his eyes, he indeed saw a woman. And she was quite a looker as well. Her chest was perky, her eyes were shimmering in the sunlight through the windows, and there was abit of redness in her cheeks. But, why would this woman take the time of talking to him? He shivered a little bit from nervousness. He took the time to drink, and speak clearly for the first time. "In way's i used to admire the sunlight and the sea breeze...but alas, ive gone through a phase which denies me such pleasures in life..." He said. Would this one girl give him the time of day? He leaned back a but and casted an amused gaze at her.

[Audrey Pierce]

Audrey blinked as she awaited his response. He seemed to have been taking quite a deal of time in replying to her. It also looked as if he was checking her out. Audrey simply shrugged it off as nothing, since she really did not care. As long as he kept his hands to himself. He also looked nervous, judging him by his bodily actions. He took a drink and then clearly spoke to her.

Her hand came up to her hip while the other laid at her side, her palm facing her thigh,"You can never be too down in the dumps to enjoy nature's splendors."

She thought it would be appropriate for her to sit down at his table, so she pulled back at a chair and seated herself. Pushing aside her dirty blonde locks from her face, she smiled at the stranger,"I'm Audrey Pierce by the way, and who may you be?"

[kenshin]

I guess she may have noticed him observing her. He didn't mean it to be rude, but when someone confronts him, he must physically observe those that are around him. He watched through the darkness of his eyes, the woman taking a seat in front of him. She brushed her blonde locks away and gave him her name. 'Audrey Pierce...' His mind played back. "Alas but i have gone through many changes, including changes that occured in the past...My Past thats is..." He said, running his finger along the circle of the styrofoam cup. "Im sure il probably bore you with it all..."

To be honest it's been quite a while since he has revealed his history to anyone but himself. But it seems this woman seems highly interested in him.

[Audrey Pierce]

While shaking her head at his comment, she waved a finger in front of him and stated,"You will not bore me. I bet it will be pretty entertaining."

A humble smile spread across her pouting lips as she finished her sentence. Audrey tried to put on her most innocent look in order to have this kind stranger speak to her. She was already dreadfully bored by herself, but having a conversation with someone new could always spark a new friendship.

Audrey waved her hand slightly in the air, catching the attention of a waitress nearby.

"What could I get cha, hun?," she asked, pulling out a small notepad and a pencil.

"Do you guys have any cheesecake? It's one of my most favorite desserts!," she said excitedly. The waitress nodded and then made her way towards the kitchen.

Audrey looked back at the stranger and smirked,"Might as well eat something while I'm here right?"

[kenshin]

'I guess she is honestly interested in all of this.' He let his thought linger a little bit. Raphael decided to simply get comfortable in his seat, Resting his arms behind his head. He watched Audrey get excited as she orderd cheese cake from the waitress. Well, it would be only fair to let atleast someone know about his past. From Barcelona to Polermo. He looked at the saucy waitress walk away to the kitchen. His eyes lingered back to this delectible female. She was quite an interesting woman, and full of energy! "Its not a fact that i'l bores others by telling them of me history." He said, stopping for a short pause. "I just don't know where to begin!" he said somewhat frantic. "Well...I was conceived in the sunny city of Barcelona, But learning about my parents moving when i was 6, I was birthed in Polermo Sicily, Italy. My Father was a famous...how can i say...? 'Gladiator' in the Italian Fighting circut in Polermo. My mother was a professional wine maker, strictly Grape wine because mother always said 'Grapes are the fruit of love.' He stopped for a moment, and was seeing if audrey was keping up so far.

[Audrey Pierce]

Crossing her legs slowly, Audrey placed her hands on her lap as she listened to Raphael begin to tell his tale.

I did not think he would give me his entire life story, but if this is the only way.. So be it.

Listening closely, she heard him speak of where he was conceived. Barcelona, Spain. Audrey thought back to when she spotted photographs of one of the largest cities in all of Spain. It was marvelous, a true beauty. He continued on to say that he and his parents then moved when he was at the age of six to Polermo Sicily, Italy. His father was a Gladiator, which impressed Audrey. It must have been a great honor to be a great fighter in Italy. As for his mother, a wine maker, it seemed like an honest job. His family seemed to be something of a normal household. Not a bit out of shape.

He then stopped, which made Audrey raise her eyebrow slightly. She then let out a small giggle,"Well, what a life. Short, but um... Entertaining?"

As she finished her sentence, the waitress returned with a plate in hand and a delicious slice of cheesecake lying on top of it. Audrey uncrossed her legs and placed her hands on the sides of the table. She almost felt as if she were a kid at Christmas, about to open the very first gift. The waitress smiled and then walked away casually. Reaching over for her fork, she quickly stabbed it into the cake and shoved a huge chunk of it into her mouth. After taking in a few more bites, Audrey realized that she was not alone and looked up at Raph.

"Oops," she giggled, swallowing the last piece in her mouth,"When it comes to this stuff, I'm an animal."

[kenshin]

(God Forgive the naughtyness)

Raphael simply waved the lengthly black hair through his fingers. God, this was a habit he grew up with. Its just the hair is so smooth, and silky. God i need therapy... he thought hopelessly. It appeared this petite woman was enjoying abit of himself. He heard the light giggle that crept out of his lips. "It's not that short, ive yet to get to myself...and Varron." He said. He was interrupted whena waitress came with the dessert she requested. She literally acted like a child opening christmas day presents, oh what an experiance he wished he could have.

But what shocked him the most was, well...Uh, Its kind of hard to see a woman of her status and beauty, "Inhale" a fresh slice of cheesecake like that. To him, it was a first sight, and a Delight! He could not help but release a lustful grin and gaze at her. I bet her mouth can take in ANYTHING. He thought perversly. As soon as the idea, [And Image] came up. He shook his head wildly and regained his normal focus and normal look to Audrey. "Sorry....Im a bit of an animal to...Tee hee." He giggled boyishly for the first time.
