A date!? Elesia and Michelle

There was a sudden sweatdrop from the corner of Elesia's face when Michelle went on a tangent, handing her the outfit and running off to get something else. Michelle was... really contradicting. One moment she mentioned her money problems, then the next she's off to buy things like she had a bottomless wallet. Letting out a sigh, Elesia felt it was hopeless to try and convince Michelle to stop buying things, feeling like she might have to lend the girl some more money later.

Maybe she could always sneak a few in her wallet when she wasn't looking? Just a thought... but she might have to if Michelle was so adamant on not taking anything.

While Elesia waited, she looed at the swimsuit briefly, again getting a small blush as she pictured how the vampire would look in it. She never knew she would really think about another person this way, but she was finding her curiousity to really become motivated, even turning away so no one could see the redess coming to the nun's face. It was still hard to beleive someone so adoring and lovely could be a vampire... but that didn't change the fact that she had feelings for her.

Michelle came out from the shop with a little box in her hand. Inside of that little box was what she was looking for. The only thing she found was a Ying-Yang amulet, which could be divided in two parts. The Ying and the Yang. She walked towards Elesia with a determined look in her face, and as she stood in front of her, she held the box up and opened it in front of her love.

" Take the white one. This...will seal....our relationship. " The vamiress said as she took the white part and handed it over to Elesia, and after that, she picked up the black part and wrapped it around her neck thanks to a little string that came with the amulet. " Please, accept this. It costed me just....the rest of my money for the month, but oh well, I guess I'm immortal..." She said, not feeling regretful or anything like.

When Michelle came back, Elesia was a bit dumbfounded to see that she had bought something else. The girl kept saying she was broke and had trouble supporting herself, and yet here she was, buying things with what little money she had left, probably spending the money for food Elesia gave her before. "Michelle-chan... you shouldn't be doing this, you're-" There was a deep concern in her voice when Michelle returned, feeling that for the moment, she should lay down the facts and put their relationship aside for just a moment as she would give her a brieg lecture on money.

Then Michelle opened the box.

A yin-yang... that symbol had meant more to Elesia than Michelle would have ever thought, the once simple and thoughtful gift becoming something that struck a few chords in Elesia, her heart nearly skipping a beat as she went to grab it. Her hand actually trembled just a little, and when she took it, her grip went tight around it, a ghostly pale look of shock and a loss of words coming to Elesia's face as she clenched it in her fist. Michelle didn't realize it, but seeing that symbol again and being given a part of it, she had just opened a large gap of memories Elesia had repressed for so long...

Michelle's smile faded to give place to a more worried expression. The first thing she reached to think was ' She didnt like it...? ' . She dropped the small box where the amulet was and put her hands on Elesia's shoulder, a little concerned of what that amulet could have done to her date.

" Ele? Are you okay...? " She asked, a bit saddened, thinking that she may have done something she shouldnt have, or maybe she picked the wrong amulet. " I can change it if you dont like it..." She added at the end, a little and brilliant tear coming out of her left eye and running down her face.

For a few more moments, Elesia had remained frozen still, even closing her eyes as she tried to shake away the brilliant but heartwrenching memory that flooded her mind. The whole thing was too unexpected, and she hadn't prepared for it, leaving Elesia shaken, even if the memory was tearfully pleasant. Still... she wished Michelle didn't have to remind her of it, this whole incident was too similiar, too... nostolgic.

'The yin to her yang... just like him.' Thinking of the man she cared for so long ago, finding the entire moment to be nearly exact, Elesia slowly shook her head, only to realize how worried she had made Michelle. Looking at the young vampire, Elesia subconciously rubbed her eyes, not because she was crying, but just because she had wished she was and did it instincively before speaking, trying to digress the entire moment peacefully. "..No, it's fine... really. I just remembered something, th-that's all." She said with a false happiness, nodding slowly before placing her hand on Michelle's shoulder, trying to comfort her about the situation. "I love it, thank you Michelle-chan."

" Really...? Will you be okay....? " Michelle asked Elesia, clearly concerned about what she made Elesia do. Even if she didnt know what she remembered, she could tell it wasnt anything good because of the nun's reaction. She felt a bit more comfortable with Elesia's hand on her shoulder...it was telling her that everything was okay, when the situation was clearly the opposite.

" I'm...I'm glad you like it..." Michelle answered back, a little better after that short scene, but still hiding how worried and scared she was. Trying to change of subject and forget about this awkward situation, she quickly added " Where are we going now, Ele-chan....? "

There wasn't anything more Elesia could have asked for than changing the subject. She had a silent releif in her mind from this, and she even had a hand over her chest as her eyes closed a moment, slowly sighing. "I'll be fine, th-thank you, really." The concern Michelle showed had meant a lot to her, and Elesia managed a soft, pained smile at the vampire, resisting from giving her a hug only because they were in public, and instead gave an answer as best as she could.

"Well, we're ready to go to the beach, so we should go there now, don't you think?" There was a pause in her words as she handed over Michelle her bathing suit she had carried for her, and looked at the vampire softly as she pictured how she would look in it once again, hiding the faint blush she was getting from it. "You'd... look really.. um..." Once again, she struggled to get the words out about it. She already admitted Michelle would be okay in this outfit, but there was a little more she wanted to say, but she knew she had to keep those somewhat intimate thoughts to herself. "N-Nevermind, l-let's go." Taking the necklace, Elesia didn't wear it around her neck, rather, she tightened the tie to it and wore it around her wrist before she would escort her out from the store and make their way to the beach. It wasn't a long walk, but even just walking with her felt like something special to the nun.

Michelle gave the nun a warm and wide smile, only interrupted by Elesia giving her the just bought bikini. Even she was a bit embarrased, thinking of what Elesia would think of her while she is wearing it. And then, the nun's question awakened her curiosity. " I'd look...what? "

The vampiress said as she watched Elesia closely to know what she was trying to say. Maybe she wanted to tell her it was perfect, or maybe that it was just a waste of money. And the doubt in the nun's voice made her feel a bit insecure. Anyway, she tried to just ignore it and go to beach. She grabbed Ele's hand again, like a child grabbing her mom's hand to cross the street. " Shall we go...? "

Maybe it would be best she didn't answer that, the two were still in public and... she didn't want to make a scene here, even if she did want to get closer to Michelle. The fantasy of the adorable vampire lying against her and the two exchanging a kiss was hard to fade from Elesia's mind, longing to taste her soft lips against hers, but she managed to resist, putting all such thoughts aside.

Then again... maybe later something might happen.

Wait, why did she continue to think that way?! She was a nun, a priestess, she had to remain pure, that was how Black Cross prefered, and she couldn't break that dicipline. And yet... she was dating a vampire, hadn't that gone against their code already? Suddenly, the fear of what her organization may think of her now came to mind, and she had to hide the fear she possessed from that realization.

When Michelle took her hand though, it was the most Elesia could ever ask for, doing just what she needed as it helped sooth her troubled mind, and a small smile came back to her lips, hoping she could dismiss everything else now for going to the beach. Her hand gently carressing Michelle's, her fingers even slowly slid along her fingertips and wrist, not daring to part from the girl now as they left and walked along the outside streets, close to the beach. Thankfully, the weather was holding up very nicely at this point, and soon they would feel the sand between their toes~ "Of course, I wouldn't want to do anything else right now."

And so, Michelle and her date walked their way to the beach, really enjoying her time with the nun. The last thing she could think in now was in her economic problems and those vampires hunters that attacked her twice. She didnt think that, while being with Elesia, anyone would attack her.

Once in the beach, they would find out that it isnt really full of people. There were plenty of place where they could settle their umbrella. And without knowing much about good spots at the beach, the vampiress asked Elesia. " Where do you want to go? "
