Chapter 9: Europe Part 2

Aesa sighed as she sat surrounded by magic creatures, waiting for the taxi to reach her home. The driver didn't say a word the entire time, leaving her alone in her thoughts. But she was forced back to reality when the cab stopped, and she saw Freya shivering on her doorstep. Aesa hopped out, paying the driver before rushing to open her door.

"Freya, why are you here?"

"I... I..." the Dane sneezed. "I didn't want to stay at home alone..."

The Norwegian shook her head, ushering her girlfriend inside. The brunette sneezed once again, but didn't stop her fellow Nordic from taking her jacket. The newly made blonde grabbed a blanket, wrapping it around her partner's shoulders.

"Let me get you some coffee. You go sit down."

"Nej, I'm alright." she smiled sadly. "How did things go with your boss?"

"Better than I thought they would. I was sworn in then sent home. He said he would handle the paperwork and call me in when I'm needed."

"Mine said the same thing." Freya chuckled. "I guess they thought we wouldn't be able to do much right now."

"I don't blame them." Aesa got a fire going in the fireplace before sitting by her on the couch. For once she didn't object when the brunette pulled her close, grateful for the warmth. Although, at that moment Vlad wished he had someone to hold him. As soon as he had finished telling his boss he had ran home, and locked himself in his room. With no one there to judge him he fell to pieces, collapsing on his bed in grief. Ghosts moved about the room, unsure of how to help him.  His black cat curled up against his side, purring quietly in an attempt to comfort her master. But it wasn't until a familiar will-o'-the-wisp appeared beside him that his head moved from his arms. The wisp whispered quietly to him in a language he didn't understand, but the message was clear. He got up, grabbing his coat and hurrying out the door so he could get to Scotland as fast as possible. The wisp faded away then, going home to Eclair's side.

Of course, it didn't take a magical creature to let Zeus know Ziva needed him. He had hurried to her home as soon as he had been sworn in, and used his key to open the door when she didn't answer. Not long after entering did he find her, slumped across the couch with a bottle in her hands. Her mask was off, sitting on the other side of the room. The large crack going down it made him realize she must have hurled it to it's current resting spot, and that clued him in to just how upset she was. The Greek man moved her head to sit down, resting it in his lap. He played with her hair until her beautiful amber eyes opened to look up at him, and he could see her pain without even looking at how red and puffy her eyes were. Zeus pulled her up to sit in his lap, resting her head over his heart. She sighed sadly, holding onto him so tightly he was afraid she was giving up. So he tilted her head back and kissed her, wanting to distract her from the pain that was breaking her heart.
Poor guys... Wait, what's going on with Eclair now? Is she passed out at the bar or something? And why did the wisp immediately go to Vlad and not Mary?
