MODS PLEASE LOCK

[.:ЯαιивσωѴɛιиƨ:.]

"I don't," Jake said smirking and his eyes bright as he looked at Raquel. "It just comes to me.."

[Harpy•]

Raquel smiled, then looked down at their entwined hands, softly brushing the back of his hand with her thumb. "Fortunately for me," she said finally, looking up at him and smiling. "You are a pretty smooth talker, you know." She kept stroking his hand with her thumb.

[.:ЯαιивσωѴɛιиƨ:.]

"Hmm...I had no idea," Jake said smoothly, grinning charmingly, He brought their twined hands to his lips and kissed that back of her softly.

[Harpy•]

Raquel smiled, loving the feel of his lips on her skin. She glanced down, a blush coloring her cheeks, making them a bit redder agains the receding flush. She looked up again, then raised an eyebrow at his charming grin. It took her breath away, but she knew it. "You had every idea," she said, smiling.

[.:ЯαιивσωѴɛιиƨ:.]

"No what would make you think that?" Jake said innocently, smirking at her. Out of now where he gasped sharply, a quick noise of pain, and dropped Raquel's hand. He didn't show the pain in his voice but it was mirrored clearly in his eyes. "I'll be right back.." He said quietly through his clenched jaw. "Stay here..." He darted off on his mare towards the house, and when he was there he climbed of of her quickly and ran inside...

[Harpy•]

{{Lol, yeah, she's gonna stay. XS}}

Raquel's eyes widened, and she narrowed them, kicking the stallion gently and sending him at a rocketing sprint, nearly faster than they were going before. She leaned over his neck, crouching on the saddle, then leaping off and tying him to the railing post outside of the barn, reaching for Jake's mare and doing the same. She ran for the house, a stone determined look on her face, then slipped into the doorway silently, her eyes searching frantically for Jake.

{{I wants to know da secwet. }}

[.:ЯαιивσωѴɛιиƨ:.]

Jake heard Raquel rush in shortly after him and cursed under his breath. He went quickly to his room and shut the door behind him(forgetting to lock it xD) and went over to one of the bags he brought with him from home. He reached inside and pulled out a smaller, white, medical bag. He reached in there, almost frantically now from the pain, and pulled out a syringe filled with a clear looking liquid. He pulled off the protective cap from it and put it straight into his arm, not even wincing as it broke his skin and went into the vein. He closed his eyes and pushed the thing down, releasing the medicine into his blood stream.

[Harpy•]

Raquel scowled, seeing him just as he disappeared into his room. Concern and straight panicked worry took over her expression, and she went to his room, disregarding her better judgement. She gently opened the door, biting her lip, then closed it behind her, her gaze on Jake and staying there. "Is this what was bothering you earlier?" she asked, her voice quiet. She stayed where she was, in case he was angry.

[.:ЯαιивσωѴɛιиƨ:.]

Jake wasn't shocked to hear Raquel's voice coming from the door, in fact he kind of expected it. He felt anger rise at first but it faded away quickly. He pulled the needle out of his arm and put it in the trash. "I said to stay out there..." He said quietly, his tone sounding tiered and a bit sad.

[Harpy•]

Raquel moved closer to him, seeing his anger fade. She put one hand very gently on the side of his face, her feelings showing clearly in her expression and eyes. "I wasn't going to stay when someone I care about is in pain," she answered, her voice quiet. "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Her voice was still quiet, soft.
