Dream a little, Dream of me

The wine is cold Like the shoulder that I gave you in the street

"Ouch! Ouch!" Eris yelped
"You should have told me before, you oaf!" Lilliana cried in anger as she smacked him with another pillow.
"Will you both stop?" Rhea asked
"No. I'll kill him." Lilliana said and Eris yelped again
"Lilliana." Rhea sighed
"What?" She snapped
"It wasn't his fault that he didn't know about your ultimate obsession with the night court. They're coming for a meeting and you'll meet them." Rhea said
Lilliana stopped hitting the daylights out of Eris and-
"When are we to meet them exactly?" She asked
"In a few days." Eris said running his hand through his hair
"And when is the wedding exactly?" She asked
"In a few days." Rhea replied
"And?"
"Darling we'll meet them after the wedding." He said
"Oh."
Eris chuckled before leaving the room
"Is the dress done?" She asked Rhea
Rhea's face blanched a bit.
"The dress had to be changed. Beron thought fit...a traditional dress." Rhea mumbled
"A white one." Lilliana said
"Yes."
"So it's done."
"Yes."

The dress was horrible, so horrible. She felt like gagging when she saw the monstrosity.
"I hate your husband." Lilliana muttered
"What it this." She cried
"A dress." Izzy said
"I know."
"This is so ugly." She wailed
"Why is it so puffy?" Izzy asked
"The cloth."
"I hate it, I officially hate it." Lilliana said sniffing
"I do too."
"Has he seen it?" She asked
"No."
"He's going to erupt laughing when I walk down the aisle." She said
"He would." Sirius said
"Where did you come from." Lilliana said glaring at him
"Calm down." He said hiding behind his mother
"They does look horrible." Another voice spoke
"Get out both of you." Lilliana cried
"Will you stop crying?"
"Oh look the lovebirds are rejoined." Felix said making a face.
"Yes!" Sirius agreed
"Where did you three come from?" She asked
"We escaped from Eris." Zane said
"He wasn't going to kill you." Lilliana said
"He tried."
"Whatever."
And then as it goes, Eris himself emerged, Sirius scowled upon seeing his big brother.
"What brings you here?"
Eris just rolled his eyes, and then he turned to Lilliana and Sirius could've sworn, his eyes softened a bit and his face relaxed as well.
And then his eyes stuck to the dress and Eris Vanserra erupted laughing, the Male laughed clutching his stomach, while Lilliana's face morphed into anger, tears sprung out of her eyes. She glared at Eris.
"You're a bastard!" She hissed
Eris only laughed in return
She knocked a punch on his jaw. He sobered up at that.
Though his face was straight and slightly angry, the remnants of laughter remained.
She scowled at him. A fire thread swirled around his finger, she narrows her eyes at that.
"What are you going to do? Hit me?"
And he hit it, she threw a hand forward and that incoming fire, was frozen. Mid air.
She snarled
Rhea sighed and walked out
Isabella hid herself behind Zane who grimaced at his older brother. Sirius and Felix looked shocked.
And a powerful gust of icy breeze knocked Eris of his feet and threw him to the ground. He growled at her.
"No power." Sirius announced
Lilliana only smirked.
As Eris tackled, she side swept his move and threw a kick to his legs that he caught and she slammed her head into his head and pushed him back, he threw a punch and she caught it and twisted his hand. He kicked her and she fell, He straddled her and then she used her hand to pinch the small of his back and he didn't give any reaction. Then she kneed him in the gut and upper cut his nose.
He sagged a bit and she grabbed his hair to throw him to the ground. He snarled and tackled again. This time holding her hands behind her back.
"I have training." She spat
He only smiled. Like a snake
"You two have so much going on." Zane said
She sighed and then rallied her magic and he froze.
Zane laughed
"Cool." Felix yelled
She got up and brushed her clothes. And then she unfroze him and he fell to the ground disbalanced.
She menacingly laughed.
It was more like a cackle.
Eris stood up, a new flame burning in his eyes.
He took a step forward. His eyes burning with something different. She took a step back.
He didn't smirk or smile or even chuckle.
Another step. The intimidation rose. His eyes truly burned like fire now. His face looked focused but his eyebrows scrunched together looked kind of hot? Or was it the temperature in the room. His hair caught the light in the room and gleamed.
Now it truly felt hot or perhaps it was the room. She felt weird. Her arm was tingling.
She took another step back as he took one forward. Only two steps between her and the wall. She didn't even notice her surroundings. His tilted his face and something in his eyes was so molten. So much emotion but it wasn't readable. And he looked good? It was the first time she truly cared to acknowledge him.
She took another step back. He advanced and the final step was all it was to the wall.
Perhaps she could freeze him again.
Her surroundings were blurring. She felt giddy?
And he took the step and she hit the wall. And he placed his arms around her on the wall, surrounding her.
"The tension between them is high." Zane whispered to Sirius. Felix was gazing at the two. He kept staring at Lilliana, even Isabella pointed out that it was rude.
Lilliana was having an inner meltdown. Usually she'd have a comeback or some sort of comment, but right now even breathing seemed impossible at the moment. Eris was studying her. But mostly he was looking in her eyes. Holding eye contact seemed difficult. She could feel his breath on her face. He was warm, his body temperature was.
She looked in his eyes too and God's they looked beautiful. Like molten lava, the orange of them burned, so similar to fire. With shades of sunset red, and slight hues of blue. His eyes were soft. They looked so much like the Aurum trees outside.
She gulped.
His hair fell over his eyes. The soft curls. His face was neutral, he was yielding no emotion and that killed her. She wanted to know what was going on in his head.
"Are they going to..?" Isabella asked in a whisper
"Looks like it." Sirius said
Felix was still ogling them.
"I have a feeling we should go." Zane said
"I don't want to leave her here. Alien with him." Felix spoke
"Why?" Isabella asked harshly
"You May be rooting for that to happen, but she wouldn't want that." Felix
"Anyone would want that." Isabella said pointing to Eris
"Brother I know you'd give up everything to be in Eris's place." Sirius joked
"I would." Felix replied firmly
Sirius looked at Felix in horror. Isabella gaped
"They're to be married." Zane said harshly
"So? Eris ran around kissing girls two nights before and now suddenly he's her priority." Felix said
"Brother." Sirius hissed
"No, let me speak, He slept with another female while knowing he's betrothed." Felix argued
"Everyone makes mistakes."
"He's going to ruin her like what he did to Morrigan."
And Isabella slapped him and dragged him by the collar and left.
Zane followed after his brother and Sirius did too.
And that left our very tense duo alone in a very "hot" room against a wall.
The two just looked at each other, it was eerie but neither broke the silence. Even the argument didn't break them.
"Are you doing to keep staring or will you do something?" Lilliana asked quietly
"What do you want me to do?"
"What do you want Lilliana?"
She looked at him.
"I want-
"Eris."
And Eris flinched and turned to his father who was standing in the doorway.
"I have need of you in my study. Be there with-
"I know, I know." And Beron winnowed away
"What does he want?" Lilliana asked
"I'll see you later." That was all he said and he too vanished
After he was gone, Lilliana bit her lip and and smiled.
But right now she had somethings to settle and an Isabella to stop.
She walked out of the room. She looked around and headed upstairs. There was a huge room with a fireplace and compared to the rest of the manor, this looked comfortable and cozy.
There was a library and a study, a bedroom, a small kitchen and a bathing room also a toilet. It was complete for someone to live. There were many couches and armchairs. A huge window was opened to let the breeze in. She walked into the library, the many shelfs were full of books and articles. A few tables and desks were placed and it was huge. There was a balcony and it looked fairly peaceful. This place felt alive. She walked farther into the library. She came across a cupboard that she opened. A toy sat in there. It was a nearly sewn teddy bear. More like a plushie. It looked old and had dust on it. She crouched down and in the lower section of the cupboard sat a picture frame. A boy was painted on it. The boy had fire red hair. The grin on the child's face was so huge. But one thing unsettled her, the boy's eyes weren't amber or even sunset red, they were a pale blue. A light blue, it was frosty, icy but not cold a sort of beautiful icy, and icy shade that sometimes were her eyes. No she didn't doubt it, they were her eyes, but she didn't have a mop or red hair, she had light hair but this was a boy. And also none of the Vanserra brothers had blue eyes. She recognized the jaw shape, the hair, they eyes, the straight nose. The full mouth. But it was uncomfortable to see-
A step creaked on the floor behind her and she froze.
She swiftly grabbed the frame and hid behind a shelf.
The person sighed and the other person whispered something in their ear.
"Finally."
"I didn't even get a moment alone with you."
"I know you didn't."
Her blood boiled as she recognized the voice. She was going to beat him to pulp. If he hurt her-
"Lilliana" Zane said
"You bastard!"
"Woah calm down." Isabella calmed her
"What's going on here?" She asked Isabella
"We're together."
"Literally him."
"You're marrying a Vanserra too."
"I'm not in love with one, just marriage."
"For some purpose."
"Breeding." She said flatly
Like Morrigan was supposed to be.
"You like him."
"I don't, whatever we have, I don't know, but it's not love and can't be."
"You're interested in him." Zane said
"I'm not."
"You are, and I saw your wrist, it's him."
"That rarely happens."
"You know that, when someone's name appears on your wrist-
"I know. Gods I know Zane, I'm not oblivious. He is."
"And he's interested else where."
"He finds you interesting too-
"He found beauty elsewhere, He found love."
"Whatever he has with that female, is plainly on the foundation of bodily acts, with you, he's...happy."
"He barely stands me."
"Then ,What was happening in that room Lilliana."
"It clicked into place." She whispered
"What." Isabella said
"Holy shit." Zane said and bit his lip.
"Are you sure it's him?" Isabella asked placing hand on Lilliana's shoulder
"I know its him." Lilliana said as her eyes got glassy
"Are you sure it's not Felix?"
"I know it's him, I think I've known since I came here. Or even before that."
"He is so fucking oblivious." Zane said as he ran a hand through his hair, Isabella looked worried
"I scented another one on him." Lilliana said as a tear rolled down her cheek
"Damn."
"This is worse than we expected."
"Where is Felix?" She asked suddenly
"In the back garden." Zane said
"He's cooling down." Isabella said as Lilliana left the room. She ran down the stairs and turned a few hallways and corridors, she crossed Beron's study, if he couldn't keep his hands of other females than she would prove to be as bad as that.
Felix was standing on one side as he gazed into the sky. The trees swaying with the breeze. And she knew that Eris had gotten wind of her that she was going to the garden so soon enough he'd be there.
And she reached to the garden and crossed the few steps between her and Felix, caught him by surprise, she grabbed his collar and smashed his lips on hers.
