Confusion had been painted across the feline’s face. She no longer could smell the scent of blood. The sounds of screams had transformed into laughter and light hearted chatter. Soil and grass had no longer been under her feet as she pressed her heels into cobble. As Naomi had came back from the flashback, she had been hyper aware of her senses. Everything had seemed to have been magnified by a hundred as her heart continued to pound in her chest. What had happened, the leopardess wasn’t sure. One minute she was there, in the thick of battle, the next she had been back at the seat where she sat with an old friend. Aislin had seem to be forgotten in that moment as heat started to string her cheeks. She wasn’t sure what the vampire had witnessed, but whatever it had been probably wasn’t good. Naomi had been embarrassed. She didn’t want anyone to see her like this.
Deciding that it had been best to leave, horror had washed over her face as Aislin mentioned heading back to the mansion. “..I don’t think….” She shook her head in protect, but vampire insisted and probably wouldn’t have taken no as an answer. “Really, I’ll be…” Naomi kept shaking her head as she pushed away from the table. All of this would have passed, at least that was what the feline had been telling herself. It wouldn’t happen again. That was what she had convinced herself over and over again, yet the imagines haunted her in dreams and while awake. “….Seriously...I’m fine…” She really wasn’t, but she didn’t want to friend to believe otherwise. The leopardess had tried every possible way to get out of this without putting much effect. Truthfully, Naomi wasn’t sure if she had the energy for that episode had sucked energy out of her.
As Aislin rose to her feet and placed bills on the table to pay for the drinks, Naomi kept shaking her head. That was not how she wanted this to have gone down. She silently cursed at herself for the mental slip-up. A hand had been held out to her and the leopardess stared at it suspiciously. It was the same hand she had known from long ago, yet it had felt like that hand would drag her down in a hole. She knew she could trust the vampire for Aislin had never wronged her. Yet, she felt like going to the mansion would be her unravel. She didn’t want anyone to see, didn’t want anyone to know. Still, Naomi begrudgingly took the hand offered to her. She still had been shaken up as the leopardess rose from her seat. “….Okay,” she said softly as she swallowed. There was no turning back from this point.
