by lovelovekitty on Wed Apr 16, 2008 5:56 am


((I'm just letting you all know that Cora has NOT forgotten her friends replies.. to keep in context with the story, Cora will be writing all her friends back as soon as all the stories from last weekend have been posted... it'll be a few more days, there is alot of them!))

Image
Cora: *walks into Locke's room, her head bowed a little in shame* Locke...

Image
Locke: Well well well, if it isn't the little near-murderess herself...

Image
Cora: *sits on the bed, looking away* I came to apologize... I don't remember much but I do know what the others have told me... I feel such deep regret for what happened to you - and I know you must be very angry with me...
Locke: ...............

Image
Locke: *rather softly* Actually... I'm not angry with you at all..

Image
Cora: *surprised* What?! I almost killed you!!
Locke: Like I told you and everyone else... that was not the Cora I know who was trying to take my life...

Image
Locke: *gets very quiet* But now.. I do know that neither of you love me...

Image
Locke: *grasps Cora tightly, burying his face in her hair, his voice becoming choked* Why won't you love me?
Cora: *is a little taken a back by Locke's outward display of emotion* Locke..

Image
Locke: *clings tightly to Cora like a scared child, his voice taught with sorrow* Why won't anyone love me?
Cora: Locke you know that's not true...

Image
Cora: *puts her arms around Locke, holding him tightly to her as he starts to sob openly* I love you very much.. as a friend... and X and P love you more then anything... and you are Eden's brother so of course she loves you.
Locke: *cries into the front of Cora's shirt* X doesn't love me! He doesn't love me at all... that's why he's off playing and flirting with other men!! Purgatory only loves me because I force her to... and Eden doesn't give a shit about me at all. She never has.

Image
Cora: *snuggles Locke closely, comforting him* Maybe... you just can't see it. You are so convinced that nobody will love you that you can't see how much everybody really does... everyone was really concerned about you Locke... I almost got kicked out of The Manor for stabbing you.
Locke: *stop crying, still tightly latched to Cora and speaking quietly* There you have seen my weakness... I hope you are pleased with yourself...

Image
Cora: I am glad to see you this way... It lets me know that we are not so different after all.. you arejust like the rest of us Locke... you have feelings too...
Locke: And damn them to hell.

Image
Cora: Don't say such a silly thing... we aren't human without our feelings...
Locke: And...what if I'm not human...

Image
Cora: *puts her hand in Locke's* Well alot of us aren't... Anael isn't....
Locke: *weakly* That bastard Anael and his she-devil twin Sage... I am not like them.... I need to sleep... I am feeling weak..

Image
Cora: *looks a little sad* I feel horrible... I wish there is something I could do for you, Locke... I feel so guilty.
Locke: There is something you can do for me..
Cora: *looks away* Not that... I won't do it if it goes against my principles...

Image
Locke: It's not that... but it's a way you can help me. Please....
