Eithne smiled on the inside when Cowl kissed her and she leaned into the kiss, her hands placing themselves on Cowl's sides and working thier way under his shirt for only a few brief moments as they graced over his skin, sensing the rythm of his heart sending warm blood through his veins. She then let her mouth wander as she kissed him on the neck a few times, smelling his aroma, a few times her tongue would slide over his flesh, Eithne's fangs noticeably lengthened as she was so close to Cowl's Carotid Artery and she moved past it and made her way to his ear, "Now hurry up and get well, okay?" she whispered to him, her voice sweet as she spoke and her breath tickled the side of Cowl's face. She kissed his ear before stepping back, a rather sudden way of coming out of a stream of kisses like that. In all honesty, it was because the urge to bite from him and feed was growing from the closeness, so instead she stood there, her hands no longer caressing Cowl's sides, but placed on his shoulders now, helping to steady him in case Eithne had accidentally hurt him or if he fainted again. She watched him with a serene expression, a slight smile on her face. If Cowl had any doubts on how Eithne felt, he'd better be damn sure about Eithne's emotions by this point, otherwise it's pathetic.
(Li-Wa: So what have we learned today, kids? Eithne's an agressive kisser! Like we didn't see that coming! Everyone: *didn't see that coming* Li-Wa: Well, if we want to know more about Eithne... we should know that she prefers being on top! Now you know more about Eithne! Eithne: Liz... if you want to live, you'll shut up five minutes ago. -.- Li-Wa: *cough* umm... I said nothing! Oh! But about the Carotid Artery, it's the Artery that vampires are classically depicted feeding from, they wouldn't feed from the Jugular because that's a killing bite and not a very good practice if you want to turn someone. And there's a lot more chewing involved in getting to the Jugular than the Carotid.)

Cowl was taken aback from her reaction as she kissed his lips. Her going under his shirt was the last thing he would have accepted from someone like Eithne. But he should have known after all she was a vampire. As she licked his skin all over the sensation of it would have had Cowl completely helpless. As she kissed his skin it was as if he was lost in lust unable to do anything else but go along with what ever she did. Even as she separated from him he wanted to kiss her again and for her to kiss him. Someone had once said a vampire's kiss was like a drug. Cowl now knew what that meant. He smiled at her while blushing. He nodded. He would get better if it was just for her. He had no more doubts about he feelings towards him. He turned to her again and said. "Thank you." He thanked her for allowing him to like her. And not only that he thanked her for showing her true feelings. After all that most of been the hardest thing for Eithne.

Eithne nodded to Cowl, the slightest hurt expression in her face, she hated it when she did that, she noticed the changes in Cowl's heart rate and everything, he had become passive as she kissed him and she knew it was the magic that made her such a predator. "Cowl... I need to ask you a question..." She didn't make any eye contact with him, trying to restrict the entrancing vampiric qualities she had, "Do you..." She took a breath, "Do you say you love me because of who I am... or because of what I am?" she asked. She wanted to know it, just how he responded would help her know as well. Her gaze kept itself glued to the floor, uncharacteristically shy for such a person as Eithne.

After all this time Cowl couldn't believe she had asked him that question. He was sure she would have already knew the answer. He was sure she would be able to tell. He stepped in front of her so he could stare into her eyes. "Eithne. I would love you what ever you were. wither it be a vampire, angel, demon, elf, or any race in the world. I am not in love with Eithne the Vampire. I am in love with Eithne. Eithne the Person." He hoped that answered her question. he loved her not for what she was, but who she was. He kissed her again to show her that he meant what he said. How could he love her if she was anyone else.

"It doesn't make sense, though..." she said, almost ignoring the kiss, her eyes staying on the ground. Her black curled hair hung in her face, "I don't even like myself for who I am... why would anyone else?" she asked him, her shoulders were limp and her arms hung at her sides now, she seemed more dead than anything, her mind racing, trying to figure Cowl out, as if there would be some kind of equation to let her know why the two of them cared for each other like they did. "It doesn't make sense."
A nurse with pink hair put up into pigtails walked up to the two quietly, she carried a clipboard with her and she nodded to Cowl and Eithne but was silent, waiting for the two to say whatever they needed to before she spoke. Her green eyes glanced down at the clipboard for a moment as she glanced over some words, as if double checking something.

Cowl wasn't hurt by the fact that she almost tried to ignore the kiss. He could understand her worry. She wondered how someone like him could love someone like her. Cowl thought of the best way to say it. He hoped that how he said it, would make sense to her. He nodded to the nurse as if to say give me one moment. "Eithne..." He said lifting her head up with his index finger so he could look in her eyes. She had very beautiful eyes in his opinion. Once he was looking in her eyes he said. "Not everything has to make total sense. The fact of the matter is. That when I'm around you I feel happy. I would like nothing to spend my time with you more so then anyone else. I feel a need to keep you to myself and to protect you. I call that love. Not admiration, nor a crush but love." He said it with complete seriousness. He knew he would have to go. But before he did he added something on a laughing tone. "And hey I don't like myself either. And if you do then that must mean we love eachother." He added a smile and waited to see if she had any more questions before he went with the nurse.

The nurse sensed the pause, "Excuse me, Miss Byrn...you asked to be informed if someone with certain symptoms was checked in..." She spoke, her voice was very quiet and she had a melancholy expression on her face, "Do you wish to see him?" she asked, obviously she hadn't approached the two on Cowl's accord.
Eithne's gaze moved immediately to the nurse, "Yes! Immediately!" She commanded, her red eyes hard and determined, "Cowl, you can follow if you want." She offered him a hand, "If it's who I think it is... I want you to see this. I have some... things I need you to know." She spoke with an odd tone in her voice, that of one who obviously had some intention. It was amazing how all the softness of the situation melted away in Eithne with the mentioning of a single patient... who knew who it could be...

Cowl was glad she understood what he said. As he listened to the nurse he wondered just who she was talking about. But as she mentioned a certain patient and Eithne responded he was even more interested. "Sure." He responded to her statement that he could follow her. He wondered what made Eithne speak in such a tone.

The nurse turned on her heels and began walking down the hallway, "Follow me, then." she didn't sound cheerfull at all, "To be honest, I have no clue why'd you want to see a patient like him... we don't even know who his family is. He was just dropped off in the hospital bed, the same night a bunch of blood was stolen, naturally we expected it was another vampire." she shrugged as she opened a door to a hospital room, and there laying on the bed was a man who looked like he could perhaps have been in his early twenties. His black hair hung around his face and he looked as if he had been sleeping.
"He's been like this the entire time?" Eithne asked, her eyes worried as she looked the patient over, it could be noticed that her hands were shaking.
"Yes, everything is exactly as you've described it, we even did the scans... and the... thing is there as well." The nurse confirmed.
Eithne nodded, "Cowl... this is Emilio." Tears were forming in her eyes, she hadn't seen Emilio in how long? it seemed like perhaps 70 years approximately since Alysdair had ever allowed her to see him. Eithne placed a hand on Emilio's chest, feeling the heartbeat and she carried a sad expression on her face, "Nurse, if you'd please leave the three of us alone for a while?" She asked, she didn't want any unneccesary people in the room at the moment. This was kind of a big deal.
The nurse didn't ask anything, she left the room, but stood in the hallway silently, ready in case there were any problems.

Cowl followed the nurse behind Eithne taking in the surroundings and keeping a close eye on Eithnes behavior. He had never seen her act like this before. And when they entered a room with a man who seemed to be in his twenties, he was stunned at Eithne's expression. Emilio... The name struck Cowl. He had no idea who this person was, but it was obvious he was someone special to Eithne. At first the words Former Lover struck Cowl's head immediately. After all he was young and if Cowl heard the nurse correctly a vampire. So perhaps this was Eithne's first lover. Upon realizing this Cowl, immediately pushed out any thoughts of him being anything else. He was a bit jealous but he didn't say anything. He just stood there quietly waiting to see why Eithne would want him to meet her former lover.

Eithne kissed Emilio on the forehead and brushed a few strands of hair from his face, "Cowl... you forget that I can hear your thoughts." she spoke to Cowl telepathically in a little reminder, "He's not my lover. Cowl, this is Emilio, and he's... he's my son." She spoke quietly, there was no hint of shame in her voice when she spoke, but there was something there, pain. "I need you to know what might happen to you, you see... Alysdair takes joy in ruining lives. If he knows of you... then it wouldn't be long till he does something..." She looked to Cowl with her vibrant red eyed gaze.

Cowl stared at the young man in disbelief. This man was her son??? Wow Cowl never would have figured that out. Cowl looked at EIthne and could see the hurt in her. He wanted to make it better. He wanted to make it go away. When she warned him about Alysdair he shook his head. "I don't care what Alysdair takes joy in. If he wants to do something to me I would like to see him try." That's Cowl for ya. A person who believes that he can overcome anything. Of course Cowl never would have thought this way before he met Eithne. Eithne gave him courage in an odd way. Cowl took ahold of Eithne's hand. "And I don't care what he trys to do to me. As long as I'm with you it don't matter." he said as he looked at Emilio. "So what's wrong with him? Why won't he wake up?" He asked. He felt like he needed to fix this for Eithne. That was his next personal goal. To heal Emilio.

Eithne looked down at Emilio, her hand picked up Emilio's left hand and showed the palm to Cowl, there it was scarred, the shape of a circle seemed to be burned into the flesh. "I made Alysdair promise he wouldn't kill him... he didn't of course, but instead there's a parasite. It disguises itself as a ring and then when it comes to contact with any living thing, it'll enter the body... and make itself home in the brain." Eithne paused, "It makes the host appear to be sleeping and the parasite feeds off of the life force. Nobody's been able to remove it..."

Cowl listened nodding to Eithne's words. A parasite that took form of a ring. And then entered the body and resides in the brain. Cowl had never heard of anything like this before. He never thought of a parasite that could take the form of an object. It sounded horrible to be in a coma for life. Cowl gazed at Eithne. He could tell this hurt her. He would find a way to get rid of this parasite.There had to be some way to do so. Cowl thought about it for a moment. How would one destroy something they couldn't destroy phsyclly. Would magic work? Cowl doubted that most magic wouldn't. After all Alysdair was powerful and most likely that parasite was something, that shouldn't normally exist. "Eithne... I promise I will find a way to make him better." He said. After all this was his new goal.

"It defends itself... and when it gets into your skin... it'll deposit another parasite in you. It's nearly impossible to remove it without injuring him anyways..." She gave the slightest sigh as she sat down on the bedside, "I dont think there's anything I'll be able to do..." She looked towards the comatose figure, "Alysdair did this for fun, don't you see that..." she was about to finish the sentance but she cut herself short, not really knowing what to say.
