"I'm not at all hungry," *he said, politely.* "And these are but short moments of pain. Nothing I cannot handle." *Reassuring her, he walked towards the open window.*
"After all, I am convinced that some fresh air cannot hurt me." *He smiled back at her and gestured for her to come near him.*

*Lady Éowyn looked up at him, blushing, as she came over to him, as near as she dared to without seeming clingy.*
"But it is raining outside, my lord. I will only let you go out if I can come with you. I don't want to risk you faint because of the blood loss and no one is there to assist you."

"I trust my healer to have done a great job," *he said confidently, looking out the open window and deeply inhaling the clean, damp air before turning back to her with a placid smile.* "I feel well enough to stand around for a few moments so there is no need to fret."

*Lady Éowyn looked up at him and smiled, secretly admiring the strength he showed, too shy to admit the feelings the sight of him caused inside her.*
"I am content with staying with you for a few moments, my lord. How do you feel today?"

"The pain has subsided and I am in good company. I'd say I'm feeling very well, thank you."
*Their proximity was close and her soft hair fluttered across his arm as a soft breeze blew in.* "I suppose I haven't told you what the travelers say about you, my lady," *he said, looking off into the strange city below him.*

*Lady Éowyn blushed deeply and looked up at him with her bright blue, glittering eyes.*
"I was not aware that there was anything to say about me." *She smiled shyly.*
"What do the travelers say about me?"

"Oh, they always had much to say about you. Although I cannot repeat their words in verbatim, I remember many pleasant things. Some said that you are purity personified, that you are joy, sunshine, good will and bravery encapsulated within a fair and elegant body. Others say that you are a heaven-sent being, presumable an angel, sent as a beacon of light for humanity. I've also heard that your voice can call forth spirits and your touch, heal the most mortal wounds..."
"Yet I have heard some say that behind your deceptively joyful eyes lies a soul of ice that even the most intense fires cannot melt... and that a shroud of darkness and sorrow speak of the pain and suffering you have witnessed in your earlier days."
*Faramir lowered his gaze, slightly embarassed.* "You must forgive my candor, my lady. 'Tis not a quality that befits me."

*Lady Éowyn blushed deeply and lowered her eyes.*
"I did not know they said such things about me. Methinks they may have exaggerated a bit. And the part about my soul, surely that must have come from one of my rejected suitors."
*She looked out at the window again.*
"And you, my lord, what will you say about me?"

*Faramir studied her for a while then replied,* "I say that you are possibly all of those things. I don't believe you are wholly any one in particular but... I cannot ignore the aura of pain that surrounds you."
*As if almost by chance, Faramir's gaze caught a glimpse of something on her neck. Frowning, he lifted his hand and gently moved back her locks.* "Puncture wounds..." *he said stiffly, anger suddenly bubbling up.* "Who has dared to harm the Lady of Rohan?"

"It is true what you say about me, my lord. I am indeed all of those things. And it is true that I am familiar with pain."
*Lady Éowyn blushed deeply when she felt his strong hand over her hair. Her heart skipped a beat by the the touch. She took a deep breath and stared out of the window, to hide the feelings he awoke in her.*
"The man that caused these marks is named Vlad Draculea. He has been very gentle to me."
*She refused to think about the moment he had transformed in the dark alley. She had been afraid, but too proud to show it.*

"Yes, I see. Gentle enough to stab you in the neck," *he said sarcastically, not taking his eyes off of the wounds.* "He freightens you... yet you trust him. You must sever this relation for your sake." *Faramir's tone had suddenly become very harsh, very much unlike his usual demeanor.*

*Lady Éowyn looked up at him with a smile.*
"Actually, it is a bite-mark. He had the biggest fangs I ever have seen. There is a curse resting over him that he can't help. Usually he is a gentleman. He even paid for my hotel room."
*She looked up at him smiling. Sweet, trusting and innocent as only an 18-year old girl can be.*

((OMG, just a year younger and she would've been jail bait. XDDD))
*Faramir clenched his jaw to keep himself from saying things that he might later regret. She was naive about the evils of the world and, although he wanted to protect her, a small part of him wanted to preserve that innocence that so few in this world still had.*
"Forgive me," *he said dully before stepping away from the window and turning to head back to his room.*

((What a luck she is old enough then XDDD ))
*Lady Éowyn looked up at him and smiled, then she went after him.*
"My lord, please. There is no need for you to apologise. You haven't done anything wrong."
*She placed her arm around his waist, to support him back to the room they were sharing.*

*Faramir suddenly stopped, firmly took her by shoulers and looked at her eyes seriously.* "You are a daughter of Kings and he's a monster!" *As if receiving a bill for his sudden outburst, he hunched over weakly, holding onto her so he wouldn't fall.*
