Colour And Strings

Chapter 32

*Encre's POV*

I push the thought aside and start the panting...should I draw his vampire version or the version I see him as of now? I decide to leave that for it bit since even if I did want to draw his vampire side, I don't know every detail of it anyway.

After think for a bit, I decide to take a small walk to the bath house Fallacy mentioned before, I took a few spare clothes, a towel and headed down the hallway until I found the door I was looking for. A steam of warm air hit me the moment I opened the door, a soft smell was being carried in the air as the distanced water crashing against each other can be hear from where I am.

Smiling to myself, I got undressed, tied my hair up and wrap the towel around me covering my chest to my knees. I open the door, a huge and high room with a few statue and like the colour of the floor and wall came to view, it's flashing with the blinding colour of gold and silver making me feel a bit nervous going in there.

"These are not made out of real gold and silver right?" I asked out loud and look at the misty water. I heard a small sound of breathing and froze in my place.

You're kidding right?

Creeping slowly, I turn to one of the pool in the corner to find who I really don't want to see at the moment. I mean, who else is in this ridiculous huge castle except for me? Of course Fallacy is in the pool, apparently sleeping. 

I turn around, I'll take my bath next time. Sighing with disappointment, I turn to go back to the door but, with a small pond of water on the ground, my foot slip causing me to fall into the pool Fallacy is in and if the huge 'splash' didn't wake him, that would be a surprise.  

"Well, isn't this a pleasant surprise? What are you doing here Miss? I was guessing you would just turn back to your room if you see me here but, apparently I'm wrong," he said as I keep my head under the water. Gosh I could feel him smirking!

I slowly emerged from the water showing only up to my nose for me to breath. His giving me an extremely annoying smile. I feel my face gotten red as I desperately trying to keep my eyes on his face.

"Heh," was all he said as he moves closer to me. I panicked and moved backward but, not much since I couldn't really move much to began with. Moving too much can cause the towel to...

I don't want to think about it. Oh no, I think I hit the wall, well, more like the end of the pool.

He stopped when he's pretty much on top of me.

"Is the innocent little girl to afraid to look below my face?" he said and lift my face more. He's teasing me. Thank lord that the water isn't glass clear or he will have the perfect view of my body.

I shut my eyes, tightening my grip on my towel. I started shaking. It's not that I don't trust him, I'm just really embarrassed.

"Fall-Fallacy, please stop, I'm really embarrassed in this position," I said trying to turn my head away. I heard him chuckle a bit and a bit of water moving. I don't feel a shadow over me anymore so I opened my eyes only to find him sitting next to me. He close his eyes and look as if he's really relaxed.

"You might wanna pull your towel down a bit, or else too much of your part will be showing," he said I look down to see my towel reaching almost above my tights. I kind of squeaked and pulled it down.

I heard him laugh a bit. Seeing how calm he is, I suddenly asked a question I didn't even intended to ask.

"Have you seem a women's body before Fallacy?"

I covered my mouth right away. What am I doing? That's so personal! Why should I care about his history with others!

He didn't say anything.

"Ha...haha...I'm sorry, I was being rude, please just forget about it," I said, moving my hand slightly to talk and turn my head to my side, avoiding looking at him

"Yeah, I have, plenty of time actually," he said, I didn't move my head but I moved my eyes to just catch glimpse of him. I don't know how to response, I don't think I'm really surprised I mean, he's possibly hundred or even millions years old. It should be pretty normal for him to...well...

"I see, I'm sorry, I don't know how to response even though I asked the question," I said and move my head to look down at my legs that is in my embrace though out that.

"Really? I answered thinking you were just jealous," he said with a small chuckle at the end.

Feeling a rush of blushes reaching up to may face, I slowly lowered my lip under water hoping I could hid my blushes.

"I-...I'm not," I said

"Heh, if you say so," I heard water being dropped back into the pool, a shadow was shown in the reflection on the surface of the water. Feeling as if someone suddenly jump on me from behind, I ducked under the water when Fallacy got out of the water.

Even under the water I can hear him laughing, after a while I pop my head up again, carefully checking the area. After making sure he's no where near me, I sit back into the pool. I feel my heart jumping so fast I was scared that it'll jump out of my throat.

"Geez, what's with him," I said out loud. I feel like I'm the only one who is so worked up about everything seeing how calm he is. I feel like such an idiot. Letting out a big sigh, I relaxed in the bath, hoping I can act normally around Fallacy afterward.
