Dinning Area

It was getting late into the afternoon, the sun was getting low, tucked away by the large bay window was a fiery red head, her hair seemed to of shined due to the way the sun was setting in the window at a two chaired table. Sitting there watching the world pass her by, while nursing a hot cup of tea in her tanned hands. This Women could feel, winter was coming, it was slowly setting into her bones, she knew it was starting to come, sun was slightly setting each day earlier, a chill in her bones, all due to her in fact being born in the winter season. Willow Wynters.. She rose her her cream mug to her lips as she gently blow on the hot liquid before taking a small sip.

The figure was dressed differently then what she normally.. didn't wear? She normally naked unless she's in public. Yet she would normally wear a dress something loose fitted too. She was wearing cream jewelled flats, she legs were crossed and covered in what look like to be mocha coloured leggings and on her top half of her body. A big baggy cream jumped that had hung off her left shoulder, fiery red hair was mermaid plaited over her right shoulder her fashion sense was comfy in her obviously two sizes too big for her jumper, Yet weirdly enough not much skin showing on her body. Which was odd for the Water Nymph who always had her flesh on display with no shame.

Willow had no reason to be dressed like this, she just want to cosy for the day. Hoping not gaining attention. Emerald eyes lined with eyeliner and mascara looked down at her cup as she quietly nursed it against her chest while watching the world go by. People hurry to pick up there children, Trying to get home from work. A few people stopped on the way in to grab a bite to eat. Yet Willow stayed in her snugged little corner nursing her drinking, Willow knew if she was a cat she'll be sound a sleep in this corner no problem what so ever. But she isn't cat.

(Anyone is Welcome to join! More the merrier!)

It was late much like the days before when he was out and about and on his own. Animals were doing their normal thing much like everyone else for they were running around and leaving on their own forsaken paths. Distance kept apart a cafe and a traveling man who stood very tall and stood out from the large amount of normal looking people. Breathing really hard and dragging his legs as if some kind of force was behind each step did he stumble forward. Fixing his posture did he continue to drag his feet with a strange looking stride with a limp. Dusk was a man who saw everything, did everything, and was a man with a dark past that would make many fall if they were in his very shoes. His breath continued to get heavier as he continued to walk and then finally he stopped looking to the cafe door as if it was some kind of strange object. People would look at him strangely and many would talk about him in a negative manner for it has happened before.

Slowly lifting his left hand did he open the door and attempted to walk inside which sort of failed due to him stumbling which made a loud bang when he hit a table to fix himself. Dusk had a body which was different from other people and it didn't help him out much for it seemed to bring all kinds of trouble. Shaking his head as if he had hit something with it did he walk forward a bit more which made him stumble more. This could not go on much longer or else he would be thrown out due to his odd nature of trying to walk. Dusk did not breath for a while and then finally he sat down on the first chair close to him with a heavy sigh.

Willow allowed her eyes to slip closed for a second, well it felt like a second. It might of been a few minutes but that didn't matter to her, yet what startled her was the loud bang her hand that held the jump tea jumped more into her chest, yet thankfully not spilling on her at all. She placed the cup down on the table and took in a deep breath to calm herself down. When when she finally did calm down her hands went back to nursing her cup of tea. Emerald flicker about the dinning area of the cafe from her tucked away cosy corner.

Everything seemed fine apart the great big guy, sitting kinda awkwardly in a chair a couple of tables away from her, since she was tucked into the corner of the window. He was huge compared to her curvy petite form, let alone his skin colour was different too, then again, she hasn't seen may people, she tended to tuck herself away somewhere or if she was out, mainly to the closed place that had a different forms of drink which is not water. Willows eyes turn curious at the sight of the new customer that entered. Yet her eyes flicker to the bar where two waiters arguing with each other how would survive him. Were the frightened?

Willows head tilted as she looked back to the not so welcomed customer. What wrong with him? Sure it seemed like he had problems moving, he was huge and grey and wore little clothing and perhaps glowing eyes. Yet she had no problem with him sitting a couple of tables away from her. Infact to her he seemed kinda exhausted. She took it upon herself, seeing nobody was going to ask this 'gentleman' if he was okay or did he need a drink?

"Hey.." She spoke one word looking at the giant male. Hoping to gain his attention. Yet at the counter the two waiters that were arguing went silent and watch the new two customer communicate. "You Okay?" She asked as she leant forward slightly in her chair as if her voice needed to travel further to him. Willows head tilts much like a puppy would as she questioned him and her braid hitting against her neck slightly.

Dusk brought his left hand up and to his face rather worn out and by the sounds of the waiters he was causing another scare into peoples lives. This was a normal response for he was so large compared to their small. The eyes of a being not human looking to normal eyes may give off the wrong vibe for all these he had seen in different people and each person reacted the same. Countless fights started and then trying to bribe him for his services and it seems to get worse from there. Enemies became a main course and they would come from all over just to fight him and take over the large amount of money which was placed on his head.

Sitting there in a odd slumping manner did his breath seem to grow weaker as his eyes shook for they were sensitive to certain color of lights. The sounds of people and the increase sounds outside seemed to make his eyes sore and his head hurt. Shaking his head as if trying to shake it off did he close his eyes and mentally prepared himself for something to happen. Dusk however heard a voice and it was a normal voice which fit very well with a well dressed female who had actually approached him.

Dusk almost said something rude but then her words shook his strange being and his eyes narrowed some for his breath stopped for a second in astonishment. Not many speak their concern of him and normally they do it just to get on his good side only then to betray him later. Shifting his eyes from one side to another did his head lower more and finally he took a breath. Looking to her with his eyes and not his face did he nod silently before his eyes grew wide and his legs went out from under him while he was sitting. Dusk grunted when he hit the floor and as he looked to his legs did he show a look of complete displeasure.

Willow sat here trying not to practically stare at the worn face of this obviously strange male. He looked oddy un-comfortable to her yet he seemed weak, yet not. If that made sense? After all this guy was huge mass of muscle, she had no doubt that he could squish her without even trying. Yet his breathing was not very regular. How odd.

Noise outside just came a blur to her, they were getting louder so could feel many gazes at the shop from her sitting place in the window. Yet her focus was on the being infornt of her. His red eyes seemed to watch her, a red that she never really seen before in colour, sure modern humans wear contacts, but no one could make contacts like this guy eyes in front of her.  Yet he nodded, assuming that was the answer to her question, her eyes only moved anyway from him for a fraction of a second just to look at her tea and the being fell.

Her eyes looked back to the only males wide eyes, her own doing the same as he buckled off the chair. Willow shot to her feet knocking over her own chair and running over to the silent stranger. Yet she halted just before she could reach him. He looked fine, yet he didn't look happy about his legs. She was kinda unsure what to do with this stranger.

So she continued walking to him in her silent steps, she bowed downed down, as the others in the shop backed more away from the two. In fear. She didn't touch the male who currently sat on the other in disgust with his legs. She offered her hand down to him. Ethier to help him up -not that she should do a lot of help cause he was huge- or to shake his hand. "I think thats a little lie you just told.." She smiled kindly at the male."Here.." She offered him her hand. "Do you need help?" He old english accent fell from her lips. Which was rare to hear, since no one really on this plant had old accents, mainly modern ones.

The man who was large and weighed alot was on the floor thanks to his legs and perhaps his body, as he sat there did the woman from before seem more concerned and started talking to him more. Dusk was finding it hard to say anything and that was probably cause he was out of breath to begin with, at times he could speak but just a little while ago he did something that was to hard to do. As a man who has a large body would do is simple for he trains and as he trains does he do it the hard way. Dusk did things a little to hard and now his body was acting up because of it, and now he could only worry to himself if his legs were breaking down.

Many people found his body weird and he can only imagine how this lady feels about his body or perhaps his walking was the trigger and not his large frame. Dusk listened to her though and it seemed that he wasn't blinking due to her talking and this is how he is when talking to someone new. Normally, he was a little less nice to new people but that was how he was for he had to get to know them first but it seemed that the lady had more guts than he had once thought. After all, she was the only one talking to him at this moment. Dusk blinked finally when she offered a hand to him and he looked at it as if it was some kind of lost artifact which has never been seen before.

There was no way she was going to help him up and he knew this for well he probably weighed more than her and besides she was a female and he needed to take that into mind. Dusk shook his head silently as he placed his left hand on the floor while his right was as stiff as a board. The fingers on his right hand flicked but that was it as he attempted to lift himself up by using the chair he once was in. It was a long and annoying struggle but finally he got himself up though it seemed it left him more worn out and tired than when he first had entered the cafe.

Willow couldn't help but find this man strange, then again, he might be perfectly normal and she was the strange one. She couldn't help but notice he stared at her hand just a little bit too long, in a wired manner? To Willow it was like he had never seem a hand before, part from his own of course. He rejected her hand she Willow let it fell back to her side in a limp manner, this guy, seemed to make everything difficult for him self. Her back returned going back to the straight angel that it was perviously in.

A sigh left the soft lips as she watched him struggle to get back into the chair, he seemed tired. Willow frowned slightly, she noted the menu that lied on each table was missing, she looked down to the floor and saw it on the floor under the next table. She went and picked it up trying shortly and replaced it flat on the table. Prehapes his guy needed a caffeine boost? or food? or perhaps just water. After all this place was and is a cafe, dinning area.

She slide the laminated paper over to him. She nodded down to it, obviously in a silent way to say would you like anything? After all the real waiters don't seem fussed about loosing a customer. Yet his guy  seemed like he had the world on his shoulders, yet he never spoke a word. Willow just smiles, two could play at that again, yet could this guy even speak? Willow would have to wait to find out.

Dusk continued his harsh breathing until his eyes opened slightly to see something being moved to him to see it and as he looked at it did he frown. Food and drinks, sure he loved to eat and everything but he doubted if he can swallow anything as of yet. Placing his left hand up and over his face did he take a little bit of air and blew it out before laying his head all the way back. In this state he looked very much uncomfortable but this didn't faze him much since he body was being a major pain as it is.

It seemed like forever to him but he lifted his head and looked to the weird looking paper as if he had not seen anything like it before. Where he came from people came by and asked him things on what he wanted to eat and so on. Dusk narrowed his eyes some before finally placing his left hand off of his face and placed it on the weird looking paper. Pointing to the drinks did he wave his hand which was his way of saying he will drink anything. Lowering his head did he let out a deep and heavy sigh unlike anything else. The voice that came out of this sigh seemed nothing like a human.

Willow tilted her head the only thing that came from her to hear as a hum, just a single toned hm. As her eyes fixed on the male. Even as the sigh came out it didn't sound like a human or anything close to it, actually as Willow thought about it made her surprised that the sound actually came from him, then again this guys skin tone was grey, weird clothing, Glowing red fire for eyes, doesn't talk much and seems weirdly tired with his body.

Willow rose from her current chair and walked further into the building, towards the bar, the waiters looked at her backing away shaking there heads, as if like, the big guy had a disease and he had past it on to her. They kept on shaking there heads at her as she stood at the bar. Willow being the gentle creature she is, never really took no for an answer. In the end she had to charm the staff members with her smile, to give her a cup and a tea bag and a small jug of milk. Her smile, looked like it could tame frightened and fierce animals. No water, No sugar. She had in the right mind to scold them like they were children. Yet all did was take the tray with the items on to the guy sitting at the table.

He had not seem to off moved much, then again she wouldn't ether if she looked that drained too. She placed the tray gently on the table, she took a few steals towards hers to her own cup. That was still luke warm. She came back and sat at the table with the stranger. "Stare at me if you want water, or blink for tea." She spoke in her normal warm tone and smile, not the ones she used to control the waiters. This one was calm and pleasant to the eyes easily. After all she knew this guy hadn't spoken to her yet. It was nice to have some silence sometimes.

The lady from before left which caught his eyes for a second for she was actually getting stuff together for him and at first it was like he could not believe it. Dusk simply hated how his body reacted and no matter what he did would it always be like this. The body of something that was not human and when normal people look at him of course it would be like that since to them he was a monster of some kind. It never failed and he was use to it which was probably why he was quiet to new people. Dusk heard a noise and it was a tray and as he looked at it was it clear that she had gotten things for him. The voice came from her then for she was asking what he had wanted by doing gestures with his face.

Shifting his head to the side did he look at the things on the tray and he heard what she said for it was tea or water and he looked to her silently but for a second. Dusk had to think back to the last time he had ate something or drank anything and it shocked him to know that he hadn't eaten anything for such a long time while as drinking was more used to him than eating. Shifting himself which caused his body to shiver and fall behind his request in his mind did he actually try to sit like a normal human being. Earlier he had saw how the waiters reacted toward the lady when she was going to get him something to drink. Dusk had to admit that he felt bad for making her do something like this for him. It was pathetic on his part and he knew it. A good moment passed by and he softly took the water with his eyes lowered to the table before him, his features seemed distant much like his thoughts at that moment. His voice finally erupted from deep inside his throat and chest and it was clear that his voice sounded some what hollow.

"Thank you, Ma'am."

Willows features seem to perk up at the reaction she was receiving from the male. "Ah! It's okay, a good deed for the day." She smiled pleasantly. Her tanned fingers wrap themselves around her own she felt it going cold, with a slight squeeze around the cup, the tea bubbled slightly inside the cup and steam rose from it again like it was freshly made hot tea. She used her element which was water, to reheat the tea to boiling point easily after all tea is main made out of water and a bag of tea. Willow didn't seem to say much about the guy voice, she just spoke as it was a good deed done for the day in a joking manner as she smiled. She brought her own cup to her lips and took a small sip of her hot drink.

She noted in her mind that his actions were slow. Yet he even called her Ma'am. Which was odd to her ears. Would he be okay to drink the water, after all his actions are slow, would it be easier she got him a ridiculous long straw. Yet her eyes rose and looked at the male in front of her. Seeing him look at the table her eyes did the same but to her own cup of tea. No.. No Straw, that'll probably hurt any kind of man's pride. Or bad for there outer appearance that they give off to the world. So.. No straw, even though it could help him drink it quicker and useless of his limbs to move.
