         The Saturday afternoon sun shone down on Amberwood Prep, giving the place a warm and relaxing feeling as students hung about and procrastinated homework. Adrian had been to the campus before, another Melrose sibling who at times showed up for his younger sisters and brother. Never, though, had he ventured inside the dormitory buildings. Jill had texted him earlier, though, giving him the warning that Sydney might not be feeling so hot. Jackie’s ‘witch studies’ were taking a physical toll on the Alchemist, which was something that didn’t quite sit right with Adrian. Despite that, he was proud of the strength she was finding, and wanted to support her.

Sure, Sydney didn’t take to sugar well, but he knew it helped after her sessions with Jackie. Showing up outside her dorm door, not caring in the slightest that he wasn’t allowed there, he knocked and presented the low fat frozen yogurt ( and a whiskey for himself ) when the door opened.

‘Something’s Wrong’ Sentence Starters

      As soon as the words left Sydney’s mouth, Adrian saw the way her knees buckled and her legs stopped holding her weight. He was at her side in an instant, his arms around her as he stopped her from collapsing to the ground. The magic had taken its toll on her, just as he’d seen before. It was something he hated, but Jackie assured him it was normal. As normal as a human who dedicated her life to keeping vampires secret from the world and was now a practicing witch could be, anyway. As it were, Adrian always internally cringed when he saw how weak it made Sydney –– the woman who seemed downright unbreakable most of the time.

He was suddenly aware of how close their bodies were, able to smell the perfect blend of her natural scent and the shampoo she used. The fragrance filled him, rushing his blood to places it definitely didn’t need to be in that moment. Ignoring all heated thoughts ( yet not bothering to remove his arms from around her body ), Adrian fixed her with a gaze filled with concern.  ❝ Maybe we should get some sugar in you, ❞ he told her.  ❝ Not much more you can practice in this state, right ? ❞

         No doubt it was Jill who had tattled on Adrian and sent Sydney over to his apartment. To say he was drunk was an understatement. The living room was a disaster of blank canvases strewn about, expect for one he had been working on. Wet paint was still drying, but the dark colors stained his fingers, bit of his hair, and was even smeared across his cheek.  ❝ Do you ever think that you’re such a failure in life, ❞ he slurred from where he sat on the carpet, an open bottle of rum in his hand.  ❝ ––that you fail so spectac-rulary that you’re actually really good at it and that’s your one talent ? ❞  He sighed and lifted the bottle to his lips.  ❝ Okay well, not you. You’re perfect in everything. ❞

      Adrian stopped packing his overnight bag ( if you could call throwing the nearest objects in his room in a bag “packing” ), and fixed Sydney with an incredulous look.  ❝ Yeah ? And what, you don’t have enough on your plate without also bearing witness to the latest Ivashkov family drama ? ❞  He moved to his closet and grabbed a couple of button down shirts, to add to the bag.  ❝ Look Sage, I know it’s hard, the thought of you having to go a whole week without me. I must be sadistic to put you through that, but be honest with me : the thought of going to a whole home of vampires doesn’t make your skin crawl ? ❞  He raised an eyebrow and gave her a look that said he clearly didn’t think that was the case. Though he wanted nothing more than to have her at his side during this trip, he knew he had to be practical. Jill needed her.

But a scared thought in the back of his mind said that he needed her more –– -

       Heavy footsteps echoed off the tiled flooring as the Moroi sprinted his way down the hallway. Onlookers stopped to watch, craning their necks to find the source of the commotion. Others had to practically dive out of his way lest they be mowed down by six feet of lean muscle. Breath heavy, eyes wild, Adrian bee-lined it for the library, not stopping for anything, even the indignant shouts of “Watch out where you’re going !”

The doors to the library flung open in a sudden boom that shattered the peaceful silence of the studying students.  ❝ Sydney ! ❞  Adrian came skidding to a halt just in front of her table. Every pair of eyes in the room was on him, waiting to hear what had happened.  ❝ Come quick ! I-it’s the Ivashkinator ! ❞

Twenty minutes earlier, Adrian had been lounging on his couch, flipping through different channels on the TV and contemplating the merits of watching Real Housewives of Beverly Hills over doing his homework. That’s when his phone buzzed. It was an SOS from Jill –– something he took very seriously. Apparently the Melrose family was worried about Sydney’s well being. As in, she seemed more tightly wound than usual –– which was definitely saying something. According to Jill, she hadn’t left the library all day, even though it was Saturday. They decided it was time to act –– time to employ Adrian’s specific skill set : which included whisking girls away to have a good time.

Although this was no ordinary girl. This was Sydney Sage, and Adrian knew it would take the big guns to get her nose out of a book.

A pool had already been forming in the Melrose family text chat ( the one that didn’t include their den mother, Sydney ), as to how many words Adrian would get out after mentioning the Ivashvinator before she cut him off and raced outside. Of course, the yellow Mustang was in peak condition, parked safely outside the Amberwood library at that very moment. But as far as Adrian saw it, Sydney’s sanity was on the line, and he was going to come to her rescue no matter the cost.

❝ I don’t know what happened ! One minute it was parked on the street in a spot that I swear was completely legal –– and the next I heard metal and glass and –– - Oh, it was horrible ! ❞

injury/hurt prompts bc reasons

@xgoldenlilywitch​ said : [ alone ] for one muse to find the other trying to treat themselves (Sydney bandaging herself up, any verse)

          The plan was to meet Sydney at Jackie Terwilliger’s place after school. Adrian wanted to help her with the dangerous mission her teacher was sending her on to hunt down a rogue witch. Although the Moroi had become very attached to the Alchemist, it wasn’t only the thrill of spending more time with her that kept him at her side. He was worried that she was digging herself into a position that put her in danger. Even with Malachi’s self defense classes, he didn’t want her tackling this alone.

His worries were only bolstered when he arrived to find Sydney in the bathroom, bandaging a gnarly looking wound on her hand. Green eyes widened as he let himself in, seeing the red blood and feeling his fears come to life.  ❝ Jackie let me in and said you might need some help. My God, Sage, what happened ? ❞
