Maybe that was how he'd leave so that she could get back with Nick.. But the war.. he couldn't explain why the streets were so busy or anything. And there home, it wasn't like the house she lived in now. How would he explain the change to her? He'd think of something he had to. And her father-- oh dear god help him. He had no idea how to even go about explaining it to her. "We can go home, now... I don't know. It's possible that I might have to but it's still to unsure right now to say."


Nick nodded. "I understand, you don't have to sign it if you don't want to. Not until the changes are made. I'll send a copy over when we have it laid out." He told him.


Stella nodded, then shut the door and walked out and sent Grace a quick text. Saying that Will was coming but he'd be a bit still because he had a phone call to finish up.

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby looked up him tears running down her face. "I can't lose you, Blake. I need you." She whispered softly holding on to him. "If you do go you have to promise you won't die. The thought of never being near you again is horrifying." She closed her eyes a little bit. "I love you Blake so much there isn't anyone else out there for me." She was half asleep. "At least I'll have Nickalos I won't be completely alone."

Will nodded his head. "Okay, if they do not agree to it. We will push further in." He threatened. "I have to go." He hung up the phone.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Blake could tell that she was falling asleep fast. Holding her against himself so that she didn't fall. Whispering to her. "For now, I'm not going anywhere. Sleep, then we'll go home." Not wanting her to worry. Picking her up and carrying her back to the bed and laying her down on it. Snatching up the phone before it could buzz again and went about checking messages. One from Raven. And a few unknown numbers. Still typing in in the code and listening to them just to make sure they weren't important. Before deleting them and then sitting down beside her, with his back to the head bored on the bed.



Nick cursed as he heard the dial tone and knew that he'd already hung up. Slamming the phone down on the holder, before walking out of his office to go get something to drink. Then stopped when he got to the living room seeing Raven sitting on the couch. And groaned. "What do you want?"

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby curled into the bed. Very exhausted from that day, but not sure what she did to get so exhausted. "Blake can you hold me and sing our lullaby." She requested softly in a quiet voice. Ruby looked so peaceful and fragile at this moment in time, despite not remembering herself as Ruby.

Will pushed his chair in and got up to go see Grace like he said he would. Though his mind was still distracted about the treaty.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Blake nodded, holding out his arms to her and sliding down so that she could rest on him if she'd like. Starting to sing softly, it had been a long time but he still remembered it. In this moment, she looked so at peace. So unlike the Ruby he knew today. And the girl he'd known so many years ago and had fallen for. Despit the jeans and shirt, but she wasn't her. Not really. She was still Ruby. Today's version of herself even if that part of her was berried deep inside of her right now.


Grace, had gotten the message from Stella. Although she hadn't replied to it. Stretching out on the blanket and looking up at the tree tops and sky above. Or what little she could see of it, waiting. She knew that he was worried and stressed about the treaty but she was too. She'd planned this to get their minds off of it. At least for a little while. And even though they were in the middle of the woods, she had bothered dressing up just a little bit. She wore a sundress that reached her knees and a pair of flats that she could easily kick off anytime he feet got sore. With just a bit of make up.

[onceuponatimeareview]

((I'm so so sorry my post didn't save))

Ruby curled into Blake and smiled softly as she quickly feel asleep. Her head rested on his chest and her arm laid across him. "Noapte buna" She whispered softly using the Romania way of saying goodnight. ((Yes I used google translate)) Her eyes closed for the final time as she went into a deep sleep. No worries in the world. Her dreams were really peaceful and light. Her eyes opened a few hours later. "Blake my throat burns." She whispered she needed to feed from Nick and it had been a couple weeks since she done that. "It really burns." Tears ran down her face as never experienced this before. She clenched Blake's shirt. "Something smells really good, but its hard to focus on it Blake." Ruby was so confused on what was happening. She was smelling Nick's scent from a distance.

Will kept walking, but then stop his mind was too distracted to even focus on Grace. Of course he wanted to be with Grace, but he had to plan for the fail of treaty.He done this the past two dates he went off to do something else. Not on purpose its just mind went somewhere else and it was hard to focus on anything else, but that.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

((It's okay, I didn't have time to get on yesterday so I never knew until I got on today. :) ))


Blake had dozed while she'd slept but never let himself fall all the way to sleep. There were so many things to think about. How was he going to explain this to Nick? How was Ruby going to react when she got her memories back and could still remember this? Would she remember this? And none of the answers he knew for sure. He could guess at them but that was all. He might be an Elder but he'd never encountered this type of thing before. Mostly because no one that he knew. Well besides Ruby and Nick had past selves and got brought back to life every hundred or so years. Thinking to Nick 'You better get over here,--- motel on the corner of Plum and 12. We're in room 32.' "It'll be okay, open up let me look at your throat." he told her.


Nick heard Blake in his mind, while he still had to talk to Raven about whatever she wanted to talk about. He did have to go. Saying. "Don't go anyplace... we'll talk in a bit. Right now I have to go check on something." He told her quickly then ran out the door. Raven could watch out for Avery if she woke. Heading for the motel.



Grace rose to her feet, smelling him. Crossing the short distance to where the trees parted on the trail. She'd set up a little off of the trail just in case someone came by. Biting her lip as she saw him. The last two times, he had gotten distracted. With work, and stuff like that. And he hadn't meant to but he'd stood her up. She had forgiven him given everything with the treaty and stuff. But she really did want him to at least relax a little bit. Walking up to him, and resting a hand on his check. "I started to think you weren't going to come.."

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby nodded her head and opened her mouth and winced a little quickly closing it because it burned. She looked up at Blake helpless tears ran down her face and then her head turned to the door the scent she was smelling was getting closer and it smelt so good. "Blake do you smell that it smells so good." Then a knock on the door came and she jumped back a little bit into Blake's arms not quite understanding who was at the door. "Does father know we are in this room together? Father must know." She whispered wincing at the pain. "Blake father is going to kill us if he finds us like this. He likes you and all, but he doesn't like you this month." Then she heard a familiar voice. "Nickolas?" Ruby was very confused she thought he was working and why was here. Why did he smell so good?

Will shook his head. "I'm sorry I am late. I'm just a little distracted over everything." He whispered not having much to say. He didn't really say much these past few months. He just kept everything short and precise.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

"It'll be okay, I called Nickolas while you were asleep. He said that he was getting off soon, so I invited him to stop by if he could." He explained, going and opening the door after dis tangling himself from Ruby. Stepping out of the room to have a word with him before they went in. "Thank you for coming so soon,--- Ruby is. Ruby is not herself... she's one of her past selves. The first of her past selves. The one where the two of you meet in Romania. In that life, her name was Gabriella. And you, were my brother... even though your name is the same as it is today. Although back then we addressed you as Nickolas. That is what she'll be expecting. And- there's something else you should know. Before, the two of you got together, and I died for the first time before I was saved. We- me and Gabriella. Were together. It wasn't until I went off to fight in the war that the two of you got together. So she thinks that now. And we should play along as such for now. We'll work something out, and get Ruby back. I promise. But for now,we should play along. Can you do that?"


Nick was totally confused. He hadn't recalled any of his past lives yet. But yet here they were. He was going to have to act like he was himself from so long ago. And he didn't remember anything. And here Blake was telling him that they were brothers once. Or-- what was him a very long time ago was brother's with Blake. Along with having to fake not being with her while he watched Blake be with her until he went off to 'war'. But if that's what it took-- so be it. Nodding. "I can do that- I wont like it but I also wont give it away. I'll be able to play along." he told him.
Blake nodded "She needs your blood, that's why her throat hurts so badly. She hasn't taken from you in some time and now she needs it although doesn't understand what's going on." He told him then opened the door. And Nick fallowed him in.


Grace nodded her head slightly. "It's okay, Stella messaged me a few minutes before you got here saying you were on a call and had to finish it.." She had noticed that everything he'd said the past few months had been short but still precise. Thinking it would be like this for a while. At least until he got everything sorted out and felt more like himself again. "Come on, I have everything laid out.."

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby wasn't paying attention to what Blake was saying to Nick. She looked up to see him and ran over to him and hugged him. "I missed you Nickolas you been so busy working these past few days." She whispered softly. She took in his scent and her eyes widened at his neck. Her first instinct was too go for his blood. "Blake no Blake please no I can't be it. The village people are going to kill me. I get be a blood monster." Tears started to ran down her face as she left Nick's arms to go to Blake's crying.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Blake let out a sigh as she can into his arms wrapping his around her as she cried. "I was going to tell you when you woke up... we've been able to keep it under wraps though. No one knows, I swear." He told her.


Nick stood back. It killed him that he couldn't do anything to help her, but this wasn't his time. It was Blake's. This was before he'd gotten together with Ruby. Going to the window on the other side of the room to give them a moment.

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby looked up at him confused. "Blake how though? My father is going to kill me. Does that mean you and Nickolas are vampires to? I don't want this Blake please kill me." She whispered softly. "I don't want to be a blood monster." Tears ran down her face. "I'm going to be murdered by father." She whispered softly.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Blake shook his head. "No, we're not vampires... I know you don't Dragă." He told her using the Romaine word for sweetheart "But- I can't kill you. I'm sorry. We've manged to hide it, well enough even from your father. He has no idea, and neither does any of your family. Luckily, their out of town on business for a couple weeks, so they wont find out about, the well. You know."

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby melted against him softly relaxing against him. She smiled softly. "I love you Blake." She said a quiet voice. "Did you get any calls about the war?" She asked softly tears went down her face she just had a feeling that Blake was going to go to war and that she was going to lose him. Ruby looked over at Nick there was something about him that drew her to him. "He smells very good Blake." Her eyes glistened in tears. Blake would break her heart, but Nick was there to catch her and their love would be the love that only comes once.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

"No, I'm expected to hear from them later tomorrow." He told her, seeing as he had gotten a 'briefing' that year on when to expect to hear from them. Whipping the tears off her face gently, then glancing over at Nick by the window still looking out of it. He'd leave, and then Nick could step in. They'd fall in love, again and everything would be as it was suppose to be. But then there was the case of getting her real memoirs about this life back. "I know,-I know you don't want to... but. Maybe, you should talk to him, about-- taking blood." He told her softly. There was a reason that she wasn't smelling him and smelling Nick instead. It was because, Nick, and his blood was already stuck in her mind. How he smelled how he tasted to her-. It was all in there rather she knew it right now or not.

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby glanced over at Nick and nodded slightly at Blake she was captured by Nick. Despite not realizing it she was in madly in love with him. She walked over to him slowly. "Nickolas you smell very good." She whispered softly looking up at him. It was a weird feeling she had she wanted him to be something more. She didn't want to feel this way her and Blake would be getting married, but she when she looked at Nick Blake didn't matter. Blake's phone, buzzed it was the Elders. She jumped into Nick's arms. "Nickolas I don't like that thing."

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Blake excused himself quickly when the phone went off. Going out the door again and answering it "Blake here.."


Nick marveled how different she was. Although didn't show it, he couldn't afford that. Catching her when she jumped into his arms and told him that she didn't like the phone. "I know, it's a new invention. I'm so sure about it myself. Maybe it's my cologne." he offered her to sooth her again. He wasn't wearing any but she wouldn't know it.

[onceuponatimeareview]

"Blake you are to come back right now. Nick is the only one who can fix Ruby and if he can't fix her you will be in charge of disposing of her." The elder hung up.

"New invention? Why don't anyone like letters? They seem safer." She whispered softly looking up at him. Her eyes widened at his scent. "Please Nickolas may I have some." Ruby whispered.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Blake hung up. Shoving the phone into his pocket, making decisions quickly. He'd tell her that he was going to war, that she'd be safe with Nickolas. And then hope like hell, that Nick could fix her. Bring her back to this life time. To who she was this time around. If not-- then. He'd have to kill her. And he didn't want to be the one to do that. Standing outside and looking around. He would have one hell of a time trying to explain what everything was to Ruby once they left the room. He thought, giving them time. Ruby would want his blood, and he would give it to her. Blake didn't need to be in the room while that happened.


"They do, but someone invented them.. who knows? Maybe they wont take off and no one will like them." he told her softly looking down at her. Then nodded when she asked if she could have some. He didn't have to ask her what 'have some' meant. Seeing as he knew what she wanted. "Yes, you may have some.."

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby looked at him and nodded. "Yeah lets hope they don't take off." She whispered softly eyeing his neck she frowned a little bit. "How do I take it?" She asked Nick confused, but then a sensation rushed over her body and she quickly bit his neck. When the blood came into her mouth something felt familiar and she quickly pulled away. "Thank you." She whispered it was enough, but she didn't like that feeling she got from his blood.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Nick didn't flinch when she bit him. Taking a tissue off the desk and holding it to his neck to ease the bleeding. "Your welcome," He told her, having half expected her to take more but maybe she could sense something from him. That he didn't know about and she couldn't stand to take more then what she had. Then moved a strand of hair behind her ear.


((Will?))

Blake heard them speaking inside, waiting another moment so that they could say what they had to before he went in.

[onceuponatimeareview]

((I never saw any post from Grace so I didn't know if you did her or not))

Ruby looked down quickly and backing away. "Blake should be done with his talk with whoever was on the phone." These feelings she had for Nick was freaking out. "I hope he doesn't have to go to war Nickolas we are suppose to be getting married and I don't want to lose him." It was a weird feeling because it felt like she didn't even love Blake that much.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

((Man, I thought it saved... let me go check it out real quick..))


Nick nodded, he didn't know much of how things where with Blake when they had actually been related all those years ago now. But he had a feeling they had been close. "I know, I'm hoping he doesn't either. But if he does, end up leaving.... your welcome anytime.." he told her. Glancing at the door expecting it to open any minute.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

((I have one for Grace about half way up.))

[onceuponatimeareview]

((Okay, I don't see so it's probably something on my end))

Ruby looked at the door waiting for Blake to come in somehow she felt like she was betraying him. Why did she have these feelings for Nick? She loved Blake right? Ruby frowned a little bit confused on what was going. "Blake do you have to leave?" she whispered waiting for some type of response. "I love Blake." she whispered somehow saying it made it feel more true.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

((I'll repost it then. Maybe that'll help.))


Blake walked in, then. Slipping the evil phone which was a good way of thinking of it for her into his pocket. Then shutting it once more. Looking between the two of them. Then his eyes landed on Nick. "Can we have a moment?" He asked waiting for Nick to answer.


Nick got the hint. Nodding his head. "Yeah. I'll be outside if you two need anything." He said then headed for the door. Walking out a moment later.


Blake waited until the door was closed then crossed over to where she stood. Taking her hands, "That, was a call from the main office.." He told her slowly.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Grace nodded her head slightly. "It's okay, Stella messaged me a few minutes before you got here saying you were on a call and had to finish it.." She had noticed that everything he'd said the past few months had been short but still precise. Thinking it would be like this for a while. At least until he got everything sorted out and felt more like himself again. "Come on, I have everything laid out.."

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby looked at him, but her heart didn't sank why wasn't her heart sinking? She looked over at Nick through the door. "You're going to have to go to war," she whispered. She felt ashamed for not being disappointed. "Blake I love you. I know I love you, but why do I not feel sad that you are leaving? I love you. I want no one, but you." Inside she was conflicting because Nick was her mate the person who she was meant to be with.

Will nodded his head. "Okay. I can't stay out too long I have an important meeting to attend to in the morning." He said bluntly.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Blake knew that it was because of her link with Nick. But couldn't tell her that, she'd have to re discover that on her own once he'd left. "I know you do, and I'll be careful. I promise. I don't know, dragă. Prepares you can tell me if you figure it out once I come back.. seeing as you'll have a while to think on it. In the mean time, though. If you need something- anything. Or just need someone to be there for you, go to my brother. He'll protect you if anything should arise. And he'll be good to just talk to if that's the case." He told her softly.



"We wont..." She told him seeing as he must of forgotten that she was due to go with him in the morning to the meeting. Rubbing her finger back and forth against the back of his hand as she lead him over to where everything was set out.

[onceuponatimeareview]

((Sorry about the late response I was busy Tuesday getting my dress for homecoming alter))

Ruby looked up at him and nodded her head a little bit. She wanted to feel Nick's lips on her. Something about Nick felt so familiar, but she couldn't put her finger on it. Her throat started to burn again, but she didn't want to take from Nick. "I'm okay, I think I'm going to sleep I'm tired." Ruby looked at Blake. "I want you I don't want anyone else." That was a lie she wanted Nick. She felt Nick touching her arms slowly teasing her it felt like they did this before. Ruby felt dizzy she felt the world collapsing around her. The joints in her body went limp as she hit the floor. She was fighting her connection with Nick, which was causing some nasty affects.

Grace didn't know that Nick was suppose to call back about the treaty in the morning. She didn't know what was going wrong and she didn't need to know that.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

((It's okay, I didn't come on Tuesday so no worries.Oh cool! what color is your dress?))


Blake nodded then scooped her up when she went to fall carrying her over to the bed and placing her on it softly. Covering her with the sheet then stepping back, and headed outside. He needed to leave now. As in right now. Walking out and seeing Nick going over and telling him that he had to leave. And if she asked to tell her that he got called in for the war already. And to get her to fall for him again. As in Nick. As in the man he had been all those years ago and that she still believed him to be. If not--- well. If Nick couldn't do that. Then-- it wouldn't end pretty. He'd have to kill her. That was his order. Letting out a breath.


Nick nodded. He'd be able to do it, it would be slow going. He knew that but he'd be able to. He had always been able to get her to fall for him all over again no matter what. Rather it be this life time or past life times. Although none of those he remembered. "I will, don't worry. In the mean time-- I need a favor. Try and get the concual to agree to take the 'can withdrawal at anytime out of the treaty with the werewolves.' And try to get them to give more land. Will wont agree to sign it unless we take that out, he doesn't know about the land though. I'm hoping that if we add that in there and withdrawal that one part, he'll agree to sign. I'm not saying it'll be easy. And with Ruby like she is right now she's in no shape to think about any of this let alone make these calls. Just try. That's all I'm asking." He asked.


Blake let out a breath considering it. It wasn't his place really. But then again he did hold more sway in the matter then Nick. Or even Ruby really. Seeing as she was new to being an Elder. And a young one at that. Where as he had been one for century's. "I'll see what I can do. I'll get back with you on the news when I can."
Seeing Nick agree by nodding his head, then turning and walking away.



Grace led him to the blanket and sat down, pulling him with her. "I didn't know what you were going to be in the mood for tonight so I kind of packed a little of everything," She said trying to lighten the mood.

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby opened her eyes weakly hearing Nick and Blake talk. Something wasn't right, but she couldn't remember what. The council was for vampires, but the Elders were higher up. How did she know this? Why did she feel betrayed that Nick wanted to negotiate that clause? Her eyes fluttered shut to weak to focus on anything it was probably just a dream. A few hours later she opened her eyes from a nightmare she looked down. She got a letter that Blake MIA in the war, but he was just here not to long ago. It felt so real though she looked up to see Nick. Where was Blake? She thought to herself, being near Nick scared her it always did because with Nick she could be free. He brought out something in her that no one else did.

Nick was always a mysterious bad boy to her he lured her in every life and that was okay. Blake was gone for good, but why was she thinking this way? Did he ever realize he lured her in? "Nickolas that kiss can't happen again," she whispered softly. "Blake can't find out it will destroy him." Nickolas kissed her and ever since then she was trying to convince herself that she loved Blake.

Ruby got up though and walked up to where he was sitting. "What are you doing to me?" she sat down on his lap. "Nickolas its like your controlling me, but at the same time I want you to." She knew it was attraction and love. "I can't Nickolas. I can't do this. I have Blake I love Blake." He was going to whisper in her ear and seduce her, but for some reason she was okay with that. All she had to do was admit it out loud and that was going to to take more time.

"Its okay." Will said sitting down. "Anything is good." Will wasn't much on talking these days. He didn't really know how to get closer to Grace.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Nick had 'received' a letter saying that Blake had gone MIA during war. Although Blake had sent it to him, himself. And he'd placed it on the bedside table. Before going and sitting down to wait while she slept. Looking up when she woke and came to sit on his lap. He had no idea that he lured her. It had never even crossed his mind before, although maybe it had and it was in a past life so he wouldn't remember anyways. Looking up at her when she sat on his knee. And he knew what she was feeling just as surely as she did herself. Although he had done nothing to her. "I don't know,--- but if you don't want to, then we wont. I might be rude and outspoken at times, as you well know. But I do keep my word and respect a ladies wishes." He told her softly.


How could she get him to open up? She missed talking to him, at things. She missed how easily they had battered with each other, before everything. She missed everything that they used to be. "Okay-- well I brought sandwich's and a couple salads and a bowl of fruit. Plus we got a couple things to pick from for desert.." She said. Starting to remove everything from the basket.

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby looked at him confused then a feeling of dread and heartbreak entered her. She backed away quickly and looked at the letter on the night stand that was weird there didn't appear to be a war going on right now. "Blake is going to come back and he's going to protect me. You can go." I'm going to leave you Those words echoed in her head and despite not remembering him saying that she believed he did. "I do not need you. You kissed me knowing full well that your brother and I will be getting married. You aren't a gentlemen your and irrational băiat rău" She said looking down he was a bad boy. "Your a heartbreaker and I will not throw away something I have to give away my heart to you of all people." Tears ran down her face. "You hurt people that's what you do." Her real memories were starting to seep in with her old ones making her confused. The Nickolas she knew would get upset he then probably would come over to her and show her that she was wrong. That she has feelings for him.


Will nodded and shrugged his shoulders. "It doesn't matter to me really." He looked down and started to play with his hands.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Nick didn't know what the past him would do at such an encounter. Nor did he understand what she was saying he was. Although he could tell that whatever she'd called him was bad. Maybe a bad boy. Seeing as he did have a history in this life of being one. Even if that was mostly all before he had meet her. But even then after they'd meet he'd had some slip ups. And he could only do what this- the person he was now- would do. Standing up, and walking over to her to comfort her. Yes he was slightly upset more with himself then her though. But he could and would always put her feelings above his own, if he had to. Just like he would for his daughter. "I'm not asking you to throw away what you have with my brother away. I could never do that, to either of you. I know I don't have the best history with, well mainly everything. But I never set out to hurt anyone. You and Blake less of all. All I ask right now, though. Is that while he's away you let me look after and protect you. I'm not asking , and I know I have no right to ask for more."



Grace looked over as she stopped taking things out. Turning to him and resting a hand on top of his. "Will---" She said softly looking up at his face trying to catch his eyes.

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby raised her eyebrows. "Nickolas you're not acting like yourself." She was quite confused on what exactly was going on. "Nickolas what is my name?" She asked softly. "If your Nicholas you will know my name." Blake and this guy only talked a couple times and he didn't say her name either time. If this guy wasn't Nickolas then who was he? When he didn't answer right way she knew something was up. She backed away from him. "You're not Nickolas are you. Your a fraud. Once Blake finds out he will kill you." She snapped sending jolts of energy towards him. She didn't know what she was doing.


Will looked at her. "What do you want?" He asked softly confused on why she was speaking to him. "Did i do something wrong?"

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Nick remembered Blake using her name. It started with a G but he wasn't sure if it was Gabby or Gabriela. And the name he knew her by today was very different. Feeling the shocks of energy as they flew towards him, but he wasn't fast enough to stop them or even step out of the way. Feeling them knock him to his knees, he knew that she wouldn't know what she was doing. Or that she was even the one doing it for that matter. "Let me explain, Gabriela..." He was a chance. And if it wasn't the right one, then he didn't know what would happen. But one that he had; had to take.



Grace shook her head, when he asked if he'd done something wrong. Along with sensing his UN-sureness about why she was speaking to him. "No, you didn't do anything wrong... I. I just- I miss you."

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby backed away from him confused on why he was on the floor. "No you don't get to explain. Nickolas wouldn't have taken that long. He wouldn't be a gentleman. I want the Nickolas and Blake i know back." She snapped. "I don't trust you. You hurt me. I don't remember how, but you did." Ruby blinked a few times letting the tears run down her face. She sniffled some her throat started to burn again. "It burns." She whispered.

Will nodded his head slowly. "Oh okay." He said looking down at the food around them.

He couldn't give them back to her. He didn't remember who he was back then and Blake had already left to go do what he needed to. But i was clear that he wasn't pulling anything off by pretending to be who he had been. Staying on his knees seeing as he had a feeling that if he got up or made a move to. She would unknowingly shoot him with the energy again and he'd be back on the ground anyways. And it seemed that she was remembering how he had told her that he was leaving even though he hadn't meant it and done it out of sheer desperation on how to get her emotions back on. Wishing he could wipe the tears off her face. "I know, it does.... you need more. That's why it's burning.." He told her.


Grace nodded slightly then kept going. "I miss us... I know that things have been--- strained. And things are still getting back to normal. But, I still miss us, does that kind of make sense?"

Ruby looked down at him. "You smell good." She whispered softly biting the inside of her cheek. Walking over to him she knelt down. "I want Nickolas." She whispered softly looking at his neck. "Not you." Her head tilted to the side. "There's something about you though." Ruby bit down on her neck softly she didn't know how to stop.

Will nodded his head a little bit. "I get it." He whispered. "I'm just busy with a lot of things."

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Nick could understand that. Letting her bite his neck and not moving when she did. Not at all but inhale slightly from the sting. It felt new with her, even though it wasn't.


Grace nodded she knew that. She had a lot going on to as it was. "I know,---" She told him softly then leaned over and kissed his check.

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby felt satisfied and pulled away a little bit. She was intoxicated by his scent and everything about him. "What did you to Nickolas? And what are you doing to me." She asked looking up at him she wanted him so badly, but it made her feel guilty because she had Blake. "Why are you doing this to me?" It only made sense that he was doing something part of her hoped that this Nickolas. That he would tell her that it was okay to want him.

Will pulled away a little. "Let's eat." she whispered softly as he started to eat some of the sandwhiches trying to stop as much talking from happening.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Nick could almost- but not for sure swear- that he heard a hint of something that could almost be want and wonder in her voice. Even though her words said differently. Taking a moment to consider his words carefully. Reaching out slowly and pushing a strand of hair behind her ear before letting his hand drop back into his lap once more. "I'm not doing anything, I swear.... I would tell you if I was. But I'm not." He told her softly taking a moment to study her face. Study all of her. "It's okay though, I can tell what your feeling, and I want that too.."



Grace nodded her head slightly as he said 'lets eat' although she was slightly hurt that he'd pulled back a little from her kiss on his cheek. But she wouldn't say anything because she knew how much he was going through. She just wished she could help him more. Starting to eat as well.

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby looked up at him and took a deep breath in. He said it was okay to want him. She closed the space to between them, not exactly sure what she was doing. "I don't know why, but I want you." she whispered. "I love Blake, but you remind me of Nickolas and I love him differently than Blake." she whispered softly. Blake was a big brother to her and she will always love as a brother and friend, but Nick was who she was meant to be with. "I can't think right near you. All I can think is about how you touch me and feeling your lips on mine. You do something to me." That something happened to be love.


He ate in silence. Will was depressed and still addicted to Wolvesbane. He also just felt very empty inside and he didn't want to say anything to Grace about it.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Nick glanced down at her almost feeling as if he was free falling off of a very tall and never ending cliff. With no net to catch him in the end, which was frightening. Seeing as even though they had known each other for 6 years now and had been together for five of them... this was new. He'd never felt it before. Even when he had first meet her and they'd gotten together. Maybe it was part of his past self coming to the service and that was causing it and somehow mixing with who he was today. Not saying anything for a couple minutes trying to regain his own thoughts. "I know the feeling--- I feel like I'm in a free fall with no net to catch me when we're so close." He told her. Knowing somewhere in the very back of his mind that this- this strange and scary feeling was complete and total love. Love for her.



Grace let the silence stretch. Although it was starting to get to her, she wanted to say so much to him but she also didn't even know how to start explaining any of it to him either. Popping some fruit into her mouth. Frowning slightly glancing over into the basket. Maybe they'd both be a little more open if they had some. Even then maybe that was a bad idea. Chancing the question anyways. "Wine?"

[onceuponatimeareview]

For a moment Ruby felt hurt why was she feeling hurt? The real Ruby was still inside of her and she felt hurt because she knew Nick never looked at her this way and that really hurt her even more. She glanced at Nick trying to gathering her feelings away from that. "Exactly." she whispered softly. "Part of me feels really hurt. Why do I feel really hurt? Its like I'm upset because your looking at another girl who isn't me, but that's not happening though. Another part of me wants you to kiss and touch me so much."

Will shrugged his shoulders. "It doesn't matter to me. I can't have too much I have an important meeting in the morning." He knew Grace thought it the meeting they were both going to and that was okay for her to think that.

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

Nick shook his head confused as well. Although Blake had said that this life time Ruby was still inside of her. Even if she wasn't present at the time. "I don't know--- I wish I could tell you why, but I just don't know." He told her honestly seeing as he didn't know what was going on inside of her. Not fully at least. He could sense some of it but not nearly enough to give her a straight answer that would only confuse her more.


Grace nodded, she knew that they couldn't have too much. And she wasn't suggesting they drink the whole bottle. But just a little. One glass each or something like that. Seeing as they did need to go to the meeting in the morning. "I know, just one glass each then?" She asked starting to remove the glasses.

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby looked at him confused and nodded for a second. Her memories were slowly coming back, but Gabriela didn't realize what was happening. "I really want you to kiss me. If you don't have a girlfriend."

"It's fine." He said softly.

((Sorry its short busy))

[Cassie 'The Thinker Go Go Go Go' Mis. Roben Goodfellow'\Isabelle Lightwood]

((it's cool.))


Nick suspected that her memories where beginning to return. That was the only thing that made sense. And hoped like hell that once they did, return fully that he would have even the slightest of chances to explain to her why he had told her that he was leaving. When really he had no plans to. Seeing as it was clear that this form of Ruby. Gabriela didn't understand or realize what was happening. And here she was, asking for him to kiss her if he didn't have a girlfriend. He didn't. He had a fenince but his fenicie was her. Pressing their foreheads together softly testing it at first. Before closing the gap between their mouths.



Grace nodded her head popping the cork on the wine and pouring two half glasses. Then handing his to him.

[onceuponatimeareview]

Ruby kissed him softly back, but soon Gabriela started to fade and after she faded Ruby backed away. Tears fell down her face. "I loved you and trusted you. You took the one thing in life that took hurting me over the line. We are done."

Will faked a smiled and drank the wine. He started to go back to eating again.
