My Poor Tavi...
Octavia walked home. Cello case in hand along with a umbrella to shield her from the pouring rain.
It had been the rains fault that the show she was to preform in was cancelled. Though she didn't mind much. She needed a break every now and again.
Opening the door, Octavia shut her wet umbrella, drenching herself in the process as she set her cello case down by the doorway. She sighed as she looked to her dripping dress clothes. Why was something always bound to go wrong for her? Frowning as she made her way back to her room for fresh clothes she hummed softly the tune she'd have played today if not for the rain.
Opening the door to her room, she stepped in. As she walked over to her dresser she dances gracefully to her own humming. Forgetting how terrible her day was going. Stripping down to her panties. Octavia dug neatly through the neatly stacked and folded clothes.
Pulling on a shirt, pants, and bow tie, Octavia walked to the bathroom to get a towel. Drying her wet hair she sighed once more.
"And I'll raise my voice in a fit of fury~ Sadness no longer in my way~" she sang softly.
She stopped suddenly as she heard something fall from down the hall. Vinyl's Room. Rushing to the source of the sound, Octavia knocked on Vinyl's door.
"Vinyl? Are you okay in there???," She stood waiting for a response which didn't come for more than a few minutes.
"Uh, T-Tavi I-I thought y-you were at w-work?" Vinyl Scratch replied from the other side.
"The show was canceled due to rain....May I come in?" Octavia asks. Worried from the studded embedded in Vinyl's words.
"N-No! Y-You can't see me when I'm fucked u-up like this...," Vinyl frowned on the other side. Her back against the door.
Octavia set a hand softly on the door. Speaking softly she began to try to soothe her troubled friend. "Vinyl....please...let me in so that we can talk about this....."
Vinyl sighed shakily speaking softer. "I-I'm not s-stable right now. I-It's not safe for you.." A sob followed Vinyl's words causing Octavia to worry more.
"I don't care Vinyl. I'm your best friend. I'm here to help you for times like this. I can tell your dearly upset. I'll make us some tea and then we'll talk about this," Octavia walked to the kitchen. Grabbing two tea bags of her and surprisingly Vinyl's favorite tea. She plopped them into the hot water that she'd set on the stove. Deep in thought over what had been upsetting Vinyl so badly.... It'd been such a long time since Octavia saw Vinyl cry. She wasn't even sure why Vinyl had cried before... Maybe she cried when Octavia was away with work.... Maybe she kept her true feelings from Octavia all together...
Pouring the tea into her and Vinyl's signature mugs. She carried them to Vinyl's room. The door was now open leaving for Octavia to step inside with the mugs of hot tea. Vinyl was leaning against the wall, heavy shades hiding her eyes. Setting down the mugs, Octavia looks to her electric blue haired friend. "So what seems to be the problem my dear Vinyl?" she asks. Vinyl frowns and looks away. Octavia sighs. "Vinyl, please just tell me."
"It's not that easy Octavia," Vinyl half growls. Octavia frowns at her tone. Almost taken aback by it.
"Vinyl i'm only trying to help you....Please don't have such an awful tone with me..."
"I never asked for your fucking help" Vinyl growls slamming her hands down on each side of Octavia, pinning her to the bed.
"In fact..," she continued. "I'd rather you'd have not come in here at all!"
Octavia flinched at her tone. But she huffed and stood her ground. Pushing Vinyl away she frowns . "Vinyl cut it out!! You've never been so.....so..rude!!!!"
Vinyl then growls and smacks Octavia across the face causing her to fall from the impact. Slamming against the night stand and breaking the mugs of now cold tea. The remains stabbing her in many places. She winces. "V-Vinyl? W-What's wrong w-with you!?!" she cries.
Vinyl huffs. "I told you to stay away!!!" she yells. "I fucking told you I'd hurt you!! Why do you not listen to me!?!!" she demands.
Octavia tears up from the pain. "B-Because Vinyl I-I'm your friend!! I'm t-trying t-to help you!" she cries.
Vinyl huffs before her eyes widen under her shades. "O-Octavia y-your....bleeding..."
"O-Only a little i'm fine." She begins picking the glass from her arm with a shaky hand.
"It's not fine. You have to go. You can't be here!!" Vinyl backs away with a hand over her nose trying to block out the sent of her friends blood.
"I'm not leaving you Vinyl....you need to tell me what's wrong," Octavia reaches a blood stained hand to her friend. Vinyl huffs.
"O-Octy p-please you don't understand," Vinyl pleads.
"But I want to understand. Vinyl there's something upsetting you.....," Octavia said her hand still outstretched.
Vinyl shakes her head and covers her face with her hands. "Look what i've done to you.....," her hands shake. "I'm monster Octavia..."
Octavia gets up shakily and walks to her friend. "No Vinyl...you just got upset and pushed me. Its's not your fault I lost my balance Vi--," she is cut off by the feeling of a tongue against her hand. Looking in shock. She finds Vinyl licking her blood from her hand. "V-Vinyl what a-are you doing?!" she asks, starring to Vinyl in both shock and confusion. Vinyl doesn't respond till Octavia's hand is licked clean.
"I told you Tavi...," she grins. Fangs poking over her bottom lip. "I'm a monster....A hungry....caged....monster. Whom has just fallen in love with the taste of your flesh and blood."
Octavia's eyes widen. "V-Vinyl w-what a-re you talking a-about. How i-is this possible?!"
She rolls her eyes, keeping her grin spread out of her face. "Fuck You that's how." she laughs darkly. "Now....it's time I take something from you I've wanted for so long...be a good girl...and I may reward you in the end."
