Room 608: Derek T. and Virgil V.

[Vergil von Wulf]

Der Beschütze put her hand down when she saw the human outside the door made no movement so she motioned the wielder forward who then peeked out with her to look one way then the other to what she pointed at. Mykel. He was caught between retreating into his room but seeing him lay there like that... he couldn't ignore him. Even if he did disappear into the room he'd be thinking about the older boy laying very corpse-like outside and come back out anyway.
He cleared his throat a little, "Mai-khul..?"

[Mykel Rahs]

The boy didn't move, except for breathing, and when Vergil said his name, a trance was broken. Mykel leapt up and hugged Vergil tightly. "I'm so sorry, Wings, I'm so, so sorry." He whimpered, holding the other close.

[Vergil von Wulf]

Der Beschütze grabbed Mykel by the collar and dragged him forcefully off of Vergil, dangling him in the air with her halberd in the other hand. She fixed him with a cold stare while Vergil tried to just comprehend what the hell had happened in the span of a few seconds.

[Mykel Rahs]

Mykel did nothing when he was dragged away, simply swinging in mid-air. "I did not mean to seem as though I attacked your wielder." He commented to the.... apparition, he supposed it was.... holding him up.

[Vergil von Wulf]

Der Beschütze didn't make to drop him or let him go until Vergil motioned her back into the room and mumbled to bring who she was holding which she did without further asking. The door shut and she dropped Mykel onto the bed that wasn't Vergil's while her wielder took a seat on his bed with the note back in his hand. He was quiet.

[Mykel Rahs]

Mykel stared at his hands, which were situated in his lap, playing with his fingers lightly. "I just came by to apologize, Wings. That.... I think I was trying to see the appeal in taking someone by force.... like I was. I shouldn't have done that, and I'm sorry."

[Vergil von Wulf]

Vergil remained quiet for a few more moments, Der Beschütze crossing her arms over her half-breastplate in the silence to watch the human on the opposite bed; the dangling metal on her cuffs made a clank against the plate when she had them situated. She moved from her spot and kneeled next to her wielder to touch his face and give him a lulling coo, filling his core like water then draining like the tide does before a tsunami. He nodded and whispered to her as he leaned in to hug her, pulling away with a big sigh, "Mai-khul.."

Standing, he put the note on his dresser and paced in front of the bed with his hands behind his back, "I.. I cahn uhndurstahnd vhat yu meen buht..." He stopped to rub his eyes and sigh again, not knowing what to really say. He could understand it to a certain degree but he'd be lying if he said he wasn't scared of being around Mykel alone now. Turning to him he spoke firmly, "I ahsk yu nevhur du sumtheeng lyke that evhur ahgane. Evhur." That he knew for sure. He never wanted to feel that helpless again.

[Mykel Rahs]

Mykel sighed softly, eyes wet and slightly dull. "I swear I won't do it again." He whispered, looking up to try and catch Vergil's eyes.

[Vergil von Wulf]

Vergil nodded a little slowly at first but it became a firm motion as he wrapped his arms around himself and continued to pace, avoiding what he was looking for, that recognition by locking eyes. He paused in pacing and bit at his lip, catching the pink surface roughly between his teeth to gnaw at it in thought. "Yu tohld me yu vould prohtekt me Mai-khul.. yu sehd yu vould evhun fruhm yu."
If there was one thing about the entire situation that killed Vergil it was that. Having been told he'd be protected to have it ripped away only moments later.

[Mykel Rahs]

"I know I did." He whispered, tears threatening to spill from his eyes. "And.... you know what, I'm just gonna go...." He murmured, though made no move to leave.

[Vergil von Wulf]

Vergil felt better getting that off his chest but the apprehension in his stomach did not leave. However, he kneeled in front of Mykel and dabbed at his eyes with the edge of his sleeve, pulling his hand back to his lap to look down. He didn't know what to say now and the big things he had wanted to get off of his chest were out.

[Mykel Rahs]

Mykel blinked a few times, watching Vergil kneeling there. He reached down to lightly touch the other's shoulder, biting his lip to fight back tears again. "Vergil...." He muttered, eyes spilling over now, but only slightly. "If I could take back everything I did today, I swear I would."

[Vergil von Wulf]

Vergil couldn't help the little flinch he gave when Mykel's hand made contact with his shoulder but he forced himself to relax. A natural relaxation spread from his core when he heard the honest words, his beads giving a purr and Der Beschütze backing down a little. He was telling the truth.
He looked up at Mykel and finally locked eyes with him, very slowly standing on his knees and wrapping his arms around his middle to hide his face in his stomach. He hoped he wasn't making a mistake.

[Mykel Rahs]

Mykel lightly pushed Vergil back, then fell to his knees before the boy, holding him closely, eyes wet, crying gently. "Wings, I am so freaking sorry. If you want, we can.... we can start over, or.... I can try to prove myself again, however you want."

[Vergil von Wulf]

Vergil thought he had offended Mykel when he was pushed away but he was soon pulled in for another hug which he returned. Der Beschütze crouched on his bed, ready should she be called, but on call right now rather than immediate defense since her wielder approached the human on his own.
He shook his head in their embrace of each other, "Thare ess goheeng bahk Mai-khul... ve khan ohnly ahtehmpt tu movf ohn. Ohkay..?"
