Love Doves
"I don't think it's a good idea." Alucard said angrily leaning against the door frowning at Integra who was glaring at him like he was at her.
"She needs to get outside a little, outside the house." She replied and pushed up her glasses.
"She might get sick, her powers are still neutralized making her immune system weaker than it already is." He argued back. Integra leaned back in her seat putting her hands folded in her lap.
"It's my final answer, have Seras dress her in warm cloth." She pushed up her glasses once more then proceed to do her paperwork.
"Yes master." He hissed and took a step back into the wall vanishing in a swirl of darkness.
"Seras!." He snapped as he entered the kitchen making Seras almost spill her cup of blood.
"Y-Yes master?!" She choked out wiping her mouth her sleeve.
"Get Abri dressed and ready to go outside, make sure she has warm cloths." He said as he grabbed the wine bottle and wineglass before leaving..
"W-Was tha-t-t a d-death thre-e-at?!' Sears shivered and quickly finished off her blood and raced to Abri's room .
"Abri! Um your going out and...well I have to get you dressed-" Before she could finish Abri looked at her and Seras stopped mid sentence.
"So...um...I'll pull out clothes and...lets see what you want to wear! But it has to be warm or else Mas- Imean Alucard will kill me!" She said as she stumbled over to Abri's dresser with the cloths that Alucard brought back. Abri just sat there not moving as she watched Seras pick out her clothes.
"Well it's in the afternoon so it will get a bit more chilly today so lets get you a scarf!" She said as she pulls a decent outfit together. After she picked out the outfit she was about to change Abri when she took the clothes in her own hands and waited looking at the door.
"oh! Your going to get dressed on your own?" She asked and Abri nodded looking back at her.
"Are you sure you don't need help?" She asked and Abri shook her head. Sears was nervous about leaving her alone to dress herself.
'Well she didn't lose her memory...it just getting dressed and I think she's strong enough to do that.' she thought and waited listening closely to her . She was going to burst in the room when she heard her start to walk around because she heard her stumbling around at first.
"Abri, you're starting to worry me can I come in?" Sears asked and then she heard Abri stop moving around for a second before she heard her brushing her hair. After listening to her for a few more minutes she finally heard her stop shuffling around . She knocked once before she walked in and was a bit shocked. there was Abri sitting there in the chair in front of the mirror. Her long sleeve shirt was changed out for a red tank top with a semi thick black coat, she had skinny jeans on, how she got them on as weak as she was she didn't know, then she had on a black and red scarf with red and black thin gloves. She was putting her hair in a ponytail in a way that made it go to her shoulders but her bangs were still in her face.
"ugh Abri...I" She was going to ask he to change but she went through the trouble of getting dressed herself and she didn't want to say anything.
"Is she ready?" Alucar asked from the closed door.
"Well um she's dressed!" Seras said and was panicking to try and find something for her to wear, a better coat if she could! She was going to get a better coat when Alucard came through the door and the second he took a look at her he stopped. Abri looked back at him from the mirror and turned around making her bangs move in her face.
"Did you dress her in this?" He asked and Seras was about to speak when Abri stood up and walked to him. He watched as she had to look up at him because he was so tall, after all she only came to almost his shoulder. She looked at him in wonder like as if she was asking where she was going. He stood there for a minutes before he finally took her hand and walked her out the room. They went down the hall and to the front door where Walter was waiting.
"I have everything ready." He said as he bowed giving him a ticket and opened the door for them. Alucard nodded pushing her gently to go out the door fist. As soon as they were out Alucard took her hand again and they walked down the long driveway.
"It's chilly out here." He grumbled to himself taking a look at Abri who just was looking straight forward but turned her head in curiosity because she didn't hear what he said.
"Nothing." He said and by the time they got to the gate and out he saw Abri's legs started to give out slightly because her knees bent for a slight second before she stood upright again.
"Want me to carry you? He asked and she shook her head. He keep a close eye on her as they walked down the street to the place where Walter told them to go. It was a street corner where there was a bench that was next to a tree which they sat down at. He looked around and tried to figure out what Integra had planned for them. She didn't even tell him what she had planned but he knew it was going to be something strange. She has a teenage mind so her view of things would be weird.
Even the ticket that he was given was weird it had a few printed like it was a passport. Abri seemed very noticeable about the things around her. This was her second time out of the manor. Suddenly two birds flew on the tree next to them, Abri was on the end of the bench by the tree so so she was a bit surprised to see they were so close to her.
"Turtle doves...that's strange..." Alucard said as he held out his hand and the bird flew to his hand and Abri watched as the bird cleaned it's wings and ruffled its feathers. Then another came right on the spot where the other was.
"Ah, now there are two Turtle Doves." He chuckled as Abri held her hand out to see if he would come and let her hold him. But the bird just moved away for a second and when on the other side. She was wondering why the bird didn't come to her. Alucard saw this and leaned over her shoulder and took her hand.
"Hold your hand out so it's facing upward" He said and she did so. he moved it so that she was holdin it a bit upward and took the hand with the bird and it hopped on her hand. She was shocked that it was sitting there on her! She was holding a dove! She's always loved dove and never has seen one as many times as she's thought about it.
'I would have thought she would be scared of having creatures like a bird after what happen.' He thought as he could see her looking at the bird taking in every inch of it's image. Soon the bird joined the other one on the tree and they both sat on a branch next to one another. Then from the corner of his eye he saw a horse drawn carriage coming around the corner. He was too distracted with Abri to have heard it from far away. He chuckled and Abri looked up at him and he turned his head to the carriage.
"Looks like our ride is here." He said and Abri turned to see the horse and then looked at Alucard.
"Yes we are going to be riding in that." He smirked as she turned around all the way waiting for it to come closer. As soon as it stopped the man in the suit driving the no top carriage stepped off.
"Would you be my riders this evening?" He asked and Alucard nodded and handed him their tickets.
"Well hop right on in and get comfortable, I was told to bring you anywhere you want for as long as old Jolly could hold out! Trust me this girl loves to pull this thing! light as a feather to her!" He went on and Alucard started to drown him out a bit as he lifted up Abri into carriage and closed the door as he got in. As soon as the man was back in he whistled and Jolly started to lead them down the street. Just was he whistled the doves flew from the tree and right past them making Abri jump back surprised by them suddenly flying by. Alucard put his arm around her shoulder and rubbed her arms.
"Relax and enjoy the ride, driver, I do believe that the lights at the park are up, if the timing is right I think that we should be able to get there when the light turn on." Alucard said and he nodded and happily lead Jolly down the street in the new direction. Then the driver started up on another story about something but none of them were even listening to him. They both were just calmly sitting there relaxing as the smooth beat of Jollys footsteps drowned out the man.
Abri seemed to also be enjoying herself even if she didn't have the emotion. He rubbed her arm a bit when he felt that she was getting a bit cold and then her face started to turn red.
"Are you getting sick?" He whispered in her ear. When he leaned in her face started to turn a brighter shade of red and she furiously shook her head and sat up straight. Alucard looked at her knowing something was wrong, but he didn't want to push her. After a three minutes of silence, because Alucard asked the man to stop talking, they finally reached the park and just as Jolly pulled up to the first light, everything else rippled in a light up show turning on one by one till all the lights were lit up.
Abri's eyes widen as she looked at Alucard who had a sly smirk on his face because he was the one who messed with the light settings with his shadows as they got near. They rode down the path with lit up white snowflakes above them and rain drow flashing lights beside them. Small characters like elfs dropping or wrapping gifts, Santa writing letters too. But halfway through the ride Abri started to get restless about something. He looked back over to her and was going to ask what was wrong but she yawned and that gave him an answer.
"Are you still tired?" He asked and Abri paused for a second before nodding. He knew this was not it but he also knew she wouldn't tell him now. He pulled her closer to him so that she was sitting so close that it was like there was not a CM between them. Her face started to get red again but Alucard was looking off at the lights at the moment. Abri looked up at his face and her eyes showed wonder as if she was thinking about something. Shaking her head slightly she ignored it and rested her head on Alucard's shoulder sighing slightly before she closed her eye then opened them to show a little spark in them.
