Cowl listened to her and her belief that it was helpless. At least that was how Eithne sounded. But he shook his head. "I don't care. He's your son. And I will find a way to help him. No matter what." he smiled to her trying to show his sincerity. He was doing this for Eithne. He could tell how much this hurt her. And by hurting her it hurt him. He listened to her further when she stopped. He knew what she was going to say. that Alysdair would do something to him like he did to Emilio. "Eithne... Don't worry about me. I wont let Alysdair hurt me. And if he shows up we can worry about it then." He turned towards Emilio. Stepping closer he placed his hand on Emilio's forhead. He could feel almost a heartbeat in it. This boy would be in a comma all his life unless someone save him. Cowl then thought of something. Something he had totally forgotten about he even had. He took out the dragon blood in his pocket. He knew it would do nothing for Emilio but it might help him find someone who might know how to save him. "Eithne... Do you want to go on a trip with me. I think I might know someone who can help Emilio."

Eithne looked towards Cowl, "I've tried to find someone who can help him, and you don't think that Alysdair wouldn't try to stop us?" she asked, standing up, "What can we do, anyways?" it was so odd to see Eithne shadowed by so much doubt, she was always determined and always sure of herself, but when it came to anything concering Alysdair, it was all the sudden impossible. The one hundred years of her life stolen away didn't leave her without scars.

Cowl stared at the ground. He was only trying to help. But she did have a point. Alysdair would probably go after them. Cowl tried to think of a way so that they could go. But he understood that Eithne thought it was hopeless. It seemed to be a hopeless situation. Cowl at first thought Kyar. but he doubted Kyar would want to go with them. After all he probably had tons of stuff he had to do himself. Then there was Julius. Which Eithne didn't seem to like that much so Cowl pushed him out of the equation as well. Cowl turned back to Emilio. He wanted to cure the guy. He seemed helpless there and Cowl wanted to fix that. What if Cowl went alone? He could try that, but he didn't think Eithne would be fond of the idea. Cowl answered her question though anyways. "We could try. After all everyone deserves a chance."

"And you think I haven't tried?" She asked, "You think I haven't tried over and over again?" her voice escalating in volume and she seemed as if she was going to burst into tears, but she caught herself, "I'm sorry for yelling." she apologized. She looked towards Emilio (name used too because I just really liked the name... *shrug*) She put her hands in her lap and she looked towards Cowl, "I don't know what to do..." she admitted, and what was worse was that she was positive that if she tried to help Emilio at all at this point, he'd be taken away again, just like last time.

Cowl was a bit taken aback. He couldn't totally understand just what she was going through, but he was doing his best to relate with her. "No I'm sorry Eithne. It's my fault. I understand that this is hard for you." He turned away from her feeling a bit idiotic. Here he was going on about how they could save him he didn't think of how Eithne really was feeling. He turned towards Emilio. "Is there really nothing we can do?" He really wanted to help this man. If not just for Eithne but for himself. After all no one should have to be like this. Cowl put the dragon blood back in his pocket. He wouldn't need it at that moment.

Eithne shook her head, "Everything I've tried has failed... " she looked up at Cowl, almost pitiful with her expression, "I just wanted you to know what might happen to you... and you should know what I'm like at my lowest, I guess. The only thing I've ever done is give you every reason to leave, so if you ever want to... it's okay and there's nothing anyone can say. And... I guess I just don't want to think that you're telling the truth about what you feel." she stood up, seeing no need to be in the room anymore, "You scare me, you know... everything about you scares me..." She didn't look towards him at all.
Eithne tried to lock away emotion for so long and now Cowl's presense seemed to force it all to the surface and now just standing here she felt the need to be closer to him, his scent was intoxicating and she wanted to know everything about him, her self control being the only thing keeping her where she stood. She wanted to kiss Cowl, Oh God how she wanted to kiss him again and again, but she wouldn't. She was afraid. What nobody knew was how much Eithne hid her fear of everything. She had to be strong, didn't she?

Cowl stepped closer to Eithne so that he was only inches apart. He looked at her with a warm smile as he responded to what she said. "I'm not leaving you. Not know and not ever." With his hands he placed them ontop of her shoulders. "You know you don't have to be strong all the time. It is ok to be afraid. Everyone gets afraid. Heck I get scared as much as anyone. But as long as were there for eachother then I don't think it matters. I think that as long as I love you and you love me, thats enough. I will always tell you the truth Eithne." He kissed her then his lips gently touching hers. he put not force behind the kiss it was just meant to show that he meant what he said. When he pulled away he added something. "And stop thinking your unlovable. Because the fact of the matter is that I am in love with you."

Eithne stopped breathing, Cowl being so close all of the sudden and she listened as he spoke, her red eyes watching his lips move and she wished to kiss him again, she was awfully lucky she didn't need to breathe, because she stopped paying attention to how long she was holding her breath. She didn't notice how long her fangs were at the moment, extended to full length and primed for biting. That was kind of an issue for her, huh? She could never get too close to people without having the urge to feed. She rested her head on his shoulder, she wanted to stand with him for a few moments, though what she didn't let Cowl see was the fact that she was biting into his shirt, clenching her teeth so she wouldn't end up sinking them into Cowl.

Cowl wrapped his arms around her holding her close so that his hands rested around her waist. It was practically a dancing position but it was nice just to hold her like that. Cowl did not feel her bite into his shirt as she leaned on him. Cowl still had his hands on her hips as he backed off a little so he could see her eyes again. God did he love her eyes. They were the most beautiful part of her body. At least that's what Cowl thought. "Well... Since it's Christmas and all I got you something." he said with a little smile as he took out a six inch black box. In it was the vial of dragon blood. The blood had two effects depending on what intention it was used for. If the blood was drank it acted as a medicine, retaining the magic powers of the serpentine lizard. If it was mixed with another substance it would serve the purpose of a poison, bringing instant death to anyone who touches it.

Eithne looked at the box, releasing Cowl's shirt from her teeth "I didn't get you anything, though..." She muttered as she accepted it and began opening it, when she saw the dragon blood she smiled gently, "Now let's see... what am I to do with this?" she asked, looking over Cowl's wounds, it seemed like a better alternative than having him stuck here for a day or two, "Drink it, it should heal your wounds. I don't need it." She pulled the cork from it and offered it to Cowl. To be honest, the warmth of Cowl's body was wonderful, considering Vampires create little body heat of thier own, it was kinda like a lizard sitting out in the sun. She didn't notice Cowl was looking into her eyes, considering she didn't meet his gaze, she was kinda focused on healing the massive wounds Issac had inflicted upon Cowl.

Cowl was taken aback from her gesture. He had meant it for her, but know that he thought about it what does a vampire need dragon blood for. "Such an idiot." Cowl told himself already wishing he had got her something else. Maybe flowers or something would have been better. But either way she had a point. He nodded taking the bottle and drank it down. A firey red glow could be seen as the blood went through his throat and disappeared into his shirt. The blood set a wave of heat through his body followed by an icy feeling. Before he knew it the wounds were cured. "Thanks." He said smiling again. He wondered what they should do now.

Eithne shrugged, "I try." she then looked towards the hospital bed before she began walking towards the door, "I heard there's going to be a Christmas party this evening... maybe we could go... though I'd suggest you clean up a bit." She opened the door and the nurse was standing in the hallway, looking at the two slightly untrustingly. "Thank you, Me and my friend will be going now..." Eithne nodded to the nurse. She then gazed down the hallway silently, then turning her gaze back to Cowl, "It's casual. So don't dress too nice. I also have a friend who might be there that I want you to meet." She then kissed Cowl again, she just had to, I'm sorry.

Cowl nodded. A party sounded fun. At least it was something to do. Cowl found it funny that the entire time he had been here he had never spent that much extra time studying for classes or anything like that. He wouldn't doubt he was failing at the moment. Cowl was trying to figure out what he would wear. Eithne said it would be casual, but Cowl still wanted to look nice. He figured jeans would be good with a polo. Something besides the cloak he always wore. When Eithne kissed him he figured that it was time to separate for the time. She probably had to get ready for the party and he did as well. Nevertheless when she kissed him he didn't stop himself from wrapping his arms around her hips and kissing back. After all they were a couple now. When he pulled back from the kiss he asked, "So does this mean goodbye for the time being?"

Eithne closed her eyes, "Yeah.... I guess I'll see you later." she didn't seem too happy about leaving Cowl, she felt like she had to keep watch over him all the time, making sure that he didn't end up as Issac. She remembered what Issac had said and she didn't want to think she could be able to hurt Cowl, or anyone like that. Physical pain was fine, though emotional or mental pain was out of the question, she didn't like doing that to people. "Untill then..." She turned away from Cowl, and began heading out of the infirmary, she wanted to talk to Issac, she had some questions she needed to ask.

Cowl gave her a hug. He noticed she felt unhappy about them separating. Truth be told he felt the same way. He wanted to be with her, he didn't want to leave. But he knew he had to. He had to get ready and so did she. After the hug Cowl turned away from her. "I'll meet you at the party." he called out to her as he turned back. He would go to the dorm and then meet her at the party. he wondered how Estrik was going to take it. He was about to find out.
