Roy's eyes slightly widened before closing them, enjoying the brief kiss before nodding.

"The rest sounds good enough..this room should be fine for that, being dark and quiet. Just how I like it. Even moreso when you're here," he said quietly before moving to lay down on the seat.

"We have a long way before we reach Calun. A very dangerous place where most of the Hunters go. We should be there by nightfall, but we should rest until then."

As he lay down she smiles and watches him. She stands and closes her eyes briefly and when she reopens them she is dressed in the black and silvery yukata that she had been given by him. If she were to sleep she should at least be comfortable.

Champagne doubted she could curl up with him on the seat so she lay on the floor at his feet. Her sense alert to intruders and those that wished to harm them. For some reason the mention of hunters did not faze her and she closed her eyes and cloaked him and herself as she rested.

"Rest well, master...."

"Hold it," he said before looking at her, raising a brow.

"Who said you were to sleep on the floor? Get up here," he said before extending a hand to her.

He didn't like the idea of having her sleep on the floor with little to no comfort. True, there wasn't room on the seat either, but..if she could trust him when they slept together in a bed, this shouldn't be any different.

Champagne knew better then to refuse and she climbed up onto the seat with him and curled up against him. Their bodies pressed so close together. The softness of her own body contrasting to the hard muscles of his own. She smiled as she pressed closer to him, purring like a kitten as she again closed her eyes.

"Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrfection......"

"That's better," he said, wrapping his arms around her and held her comfortably while watching her rest. It was hours before he fell asleep, still holding her.

"Mitsu!" A boy screamed while tacking a girl down as a tall figure, wrapped in darkness, slashed at her but had hit the boy's back instead. Falling over with a grimace, the boy stayed over the girl while blood dripped into the snow.

A pair of dark eyes looked back at the figure that had attacked him, his face in quiet anger and rage as the girl clung to him.

"Roy! You're hurt!!"

Champagne felt Roy's body stiffen and a whimper as he slept. A nightmare for sure even if she couldn't see it. Her sweet Roy was being plagued by the past and she hated it. She was not fully asleep....she never would be while above ground and too close to danger.

She turned in his arms and wrapped her own arms around him, their legs tangling and her head tucked into his shouler, her breath caressing his neck as she nuzzled into him. She may not have been fully asleep, but in her state she was able to dream and her dream was a good one.

One of pure joy and happiness when it came to Roy. They were together and so in love and when he touched her she sighed and as she dreamt Champagn'es body warmed and for once she felt her heart pound hard and fast as she became wrapped in passion and joy.

Roy instinctively reacted while holding her tightly against him, that faint smell of vanilla waking him and inwardly cursed himself for it, but then again..

She seemed to be enjoying herself.

Looking at her enjoying her dreaming state, he took a deep breath and kissed her collarbone before falling back asleep, his nightmare ended, even though it was of the past, she helped him wake up to get out of it.

A shiver went down Champagne's spine and she purred softly, contently at the kiss and she in turn found herself moving closer and closer, their bodies melding together as the both found peace in one another.

For once in a very long time she truly was at peace and blissful at the same time. He was perfection and being here now even with impending danger waiting for them it didn't matter...Only they mattered.

As she nuzzled him more her lips went to his neck and she placed a row of kisses there upon his flesh before settling again to slumber.

The door opened while Roy peeked out, fully awake after moments before, did the PA announce the upcoming arrival of Calun before looking back at her.

"You did see them put the luggage towards the caboose, didn't you?"

Champagne was wide awake now as well and she watched him.

"I think so...that's where most of the luggage is kept anyways....Why? We can get everything when we reach the station...."

It was dark outside and Champagne lifted the shades in the car to allow the moonlight in. She stared out the window and then looked at Roy.

He seemed on edge about something and for once she didn't know what it was.

She sat there still in her yukata and she brushed her fingers through her hair and yawned a bit before stretching. She felt wonderful after their nap and the moonlight made her feel so alive...it was either that or Roy that was making her feel that way.

Champagne stood and walked up behind him to wrap her arms around him
"Why are you worried about the luggage....You'll only stress yourself out and wear your heart down....."

Roy looked at her before resting a hand over her arms.

"Well, you do have to be fed, do you not?" he asked before suddenly feeling eyes on him again and quickly closed the door after seeing a pair of sharply iced blue eyes train on him.

"I don't need to feed...I'll be fine...I'm not about to have you put yourself at risk...."

She stepped away from him and held her arms open wide and she laughed.

"Do you not see that I am well and sated....You have taken enough care of me...If I feed it will be once we get to the hotel and not a minute before. You need food and drink....I cannot get sick, but you can. Mitsuko would never forgive me if something were to happen to you!"

She laughed a bit more as she spun in circles almost as if she were mad, but in truth it was just so she could watch the skirt od her yukata twirl about with her. She should probably change back into something more fitting for their journey to the hotel.
Roy raised a brow before looking around before going to the window and opens it.

"Change of plan, we're getting off now," he said and looked at her. "This is not the time for entertainment, Champagne."

"Fine....Fine....Let's go now"

She huffed a bit because he had to be so mean about it. She just wanted to make him smile and have him know for sure that she really was okay.

Champagne went to the window and climbed out first. It was fairly quiet at the station. It must be later than she realized and she looked up at the dark window.

"Hurry up before someone sees us....."Roy nodded and jumped out as well, landing in a crouch before standing and looking at her.

"If my memory serves me correctly, there's a place I know that can hide your crimson eyes. That is, if you're able to last against it," he said before walking away. "Nuro should be having his lackeys deliver our luggage to the hotel I've made arrangements at."

"I don't even want to know what you have in mind, but I think I'd prefer to take care of hiding the color of my eyes by myself....."

She hurried behind him hoping that they would be at the hotel soon. Not for herself, but for his sake. She finally caught up to him and walked beside him She had learned lon ago that she had the ability to mask her appearances to those around her. Therefore she could make others see a different color, all save other vampires that was. She would need some time to do so for she had never done it before, but once at the hotel Champagne was sure she could start the magick.

That would be after Roy had eatten and gotten into bed of course and she would put her plan into action by bringing him a drink of wine before bed. The darkness would hide her blood and he would never know the difference."If that's what you want, then go ahead," he said as he casually put his hands into his pockets and looked around, his cold gaze returning while he took on the sights.

"Place hasn't changed... Calun, the home to the richiest of the rich and poorest of the poor. Crimes occur all the time because of the financial difference," he mumbled before catching sight of several Hunters. "And uptight.. I wonder what's going on to make the Hunters form groups at a time like tonight.."

He turned and headed towards the hotel, only to stop at one of the doorsmen, who was waving at him.

"Sena galimp no aitaku?" the man said rather friendly.

Roy quirked a grin before nodding, understanding the language before placing a few coins in the man's hand.

"La heu pracoto nurgih za pelao," he said, earning a laugh, only to nod and head inside.

"May I help you sir," an attendant asked while smiling, at the same time, blushing rather idiotically at him.

"I believe you have a room reserved for Awayu," he said, keeping his eyes fixed on her as she had quickly looked into a rather largely thick book.

"Ah yes, Roy Awayu?" she said and looked up at him.

"That's right," he replied while nodding.

"R-room uh..112," she said and handed him a key, her face pink.

"Thank you," he said as he took the key, only to wink at her before heading towards the room.

Champagne watched silently as Roy spoke to the doorman and even smirked when she saw how flustered the woman at the front desk got, but she actually got jealous when Roy winked at her. Her eyes turning almost black she took her time walking past the woman, glaring at her.

She smirked again as she followed Roy to their room. For once she didn't know what to think and remained silent- just completely silent.
