PTS: Magical thread, please join only if asked to.
Ginger sat down on the cold marble. It was smooth and polished, and would have been cold.
Would have been.
She gazed out through the glass wall and stared into the nothing white of the realm beyond. She smiled. It was so pure and peaceful to see it. No harm, no cold or sickness...
She sighed momentarily, wishing Landon would come back. He had been gone again, busy with something or another.
Hadn't told her what quite yet, but he always did. She wasn't that worried. She sighed gently and leaned against the wall, closing her eyes.
Things were so quiet sometimes...

Landon slammed through the door. He tore off the white gloves that the council were 'required' to wear and stormed into the room.
The normally pure white marble turned black underneath his feet, until he saw Ginger. Then it went to a dark grey, and as he walked toward her, turned closer and closer to white.

Ginger cracked open an eye when she saw the door fling open.
She blinked a bit and cocked her head as he walked in. Her eyes watched the black marble beneath his feet, slightly worried.
She smiled, watching it subside to a lighter shade.
"Hi..." she whispered.

Landon held out his hand to her. "Come here, please," he shocked himself, Please?

Denise blinked at him for a moment.
He must really need her....
She was up in seconds. her hand slipped into his. "What's the matter...?" she crooned softly, eyes searching his gaze for any sign of problems. She wrapped her arms around his neck.
Something was wrong... something had to be.

Landon rested his head on her shoulder. "The stupid bastards from the council, they want to throw you back. They don't think that we should take another human. They think you'll go bad, like that... Cera."

Denise pulled him in close, closing her eyes tight.
Oh god, please no...
She tried not to tremble, but she couldn't help a small shiver.
"Ha-have they decided yet...?" she choked.

Landon pulled her closer.
"They want to send you out. They intend to do it soon. I don't know when," he told her, breathing in her scent. It was hard, the air around here didn't carry scents well.

Ginger's throat felt very tight. She didn't want to let him go...
"Is... is there nothing we-i can do...?" she asked softly.

Landon held her against him, lifting her slightly off the floor.
"You can't do anything, you're screwed. Lost... unless I help you," he told her, "I... it's up to you. The closest a faerie can be with another is love, and closer then that is acknowledged love. It's what you humans might know as marriage, only not."
He breathed out, wondering if she got his mixed message.

Ginger pulled back slightly to look at his face. Her eyes were wide and surprised.
"What are you saying...?" she whispered.
No... you probably didn't hear that right....

Landon ran his hands lightly over her face, like butterflies.
"I just asked you if you would... marry me?" he asked her again, not quite looking at her.

Ginger struggled to let the words sink in.
She blinked at him in a blank sort of way. "Oh gods..." she finally gasped, relization plain on her face.
she kissed him softly, her hands trembling as they stroked his face.
"I-I will..."

Landon kissed her back. He grabbed her hand. "Then come on, we have to do this now. Or else my," he scowled, "father, will try and get rid of you."

Denise nodded, still watching him, still in shock.
"All right, let's go." she murmured.
