Solomon smiled a bit, closing his own eyes, even though he was far form sleep. "I know.." He winced, making sure grunt never left his vocal chords. He didn't want to make Holden worry more now that the numbness overtook his torso, "It's never gone this far..." Solomon twitched a bit, then just as suddenly as the sensation came, it drifted away. He closed his eyes tightly, using a bit of power to keep Holden unaware of flinching so he could get some decent rest. "Tomorrow..we need to contact Mystic. It's a shame Azriel is missing...she'd probably know more about this."

[Bovice]

"We will Solomon..." Alicia trailed off not knowing what else to say.

Holden groaned as he opened his eyes when he heard his phone buzzing on his nightstand. "Who would be calling right now?" He rolled over and glanced at the clock, "4:30? Really?" He sighed as he grabbed his phone. "Hello?" His voice was slurred a bit. He sat up, "What?!" He looked to Solomon. "Y-..you can't do that..." He pinched his nose. "You want to know why? It's because it is discrimination." He tried to stay calm. "Its discrimination because you found out that I'm gay. Which doesn't affect my job performance." He clenched his fist. "You had an informant? Who in their right mind would sell someone out like that?" His eyes widened as he figured out who did, he looked at Solomon and mouthed 'Asher'. "Fine, I see how it is..." He sighed. "Ya maybe I will see you in court." He growled as the line went dead. "Son of a bitch." Holden threw his phone across the room, making it shatter as it slammed into the wall.

[Evil Tink]

Solomon frowned, "Holden..I'm so sorry." He sat up putting his arm around Holden and pulling him close. He knew it was partially his fault. He made Asher mad after all..well, they all did. He sighed, moving to give Holden's cheek a slight kiss, "I know a few..powerful people in the system down in Florida..I can talk to them if you'd like?"

[Bovice]

Holden sighed as he put his arm around Solomon. "No, you don't have to." He gently rubbed Solomon's chest. "And this isn't the first time I have been fired or turned down from a job because of my sexuality." He sighed again. "I was to good for them anyway. Plus I took a major pay cut." He chuckled slightly. "And now I can go into business with Anne, if she'd have me." He smiled as he leaned his head on Solomon's shoulder. "When do you have to be in Ireland? I'll go with you if it's ok?" Holden looked up at Solomon.

[Evil Tink]

"Let's see..you said it's about 4:30? I'll probably have to leave at about 6am." He frowned a bit as Holden asked to come with. He didn't want him anywhere near Christine if she was a Charun...but he didn't want him to be any great distance away from himself either. He closed his eyes tightly as he debated. "You can come along. I'm sure Kali would love to see you again."

[Bovice]

"Thank you Solomon." Holden smiled giving Solomon a kiss on the cheek. "An I'll make sure she will win her show." He sighed. He looked at Solomon with an evil smile, "We have about an hour and a half... Want to?" He winked as he gently trailed his finger down Solomon chest.

[Evil Tink]

He shook his head, "Not right now Holden...I just want to relax for awhile." Solomon put his arm around Holden's waist, pulling him back down on the bed, letting his forehead rest on Holden's. "I don't get too many..rather quiet mornings anymore."

[Bovice]

Holden pouted but nodded, "Of course my darling Solomon." He smiled slightly as he was pulled down onto the bed. "Oh Solomon~" He brushed Solomon's hair out of his eyes. "How about this?" He scooted a little closer to the headboard. "I hold you for a little while. I do know you like hearing my heart beat." He smiled as he pulled Solomon's head to his chest. He wrapped his arms around Solomon and placed a sweet kiss on top of Solomon's head. "There you go Solomon, just listen to my heart." Holden said in a soothing tone, even though he felt a coldness surround himself...

[Evil Tink]

Solomon just let him move. He was too deep in thought to really notice what Holden was doing or saying for that matter. He could feel the coldness around Holden, and around himself. The Charun was getting more aggressive it seemed. He closed his eyes with an internal sigh, wishing he knew what to do.

[Bovice]

Holden fell asleep for about ten minutes but got shocked awake by a numbness in his abdomen. He winced as the feeling got closer to his lungs. He wanted to gasp out for air but he didn't want to disturb Solomon. He hugged Solomon tighter as the numbness made its way around his heart. He let go of Solomon and rolled off of the bed to his knees. His breathing was become more and more erratic, he quickly stood and ran to the bathroom. He shut the door and leaned on the sink, gasping for air and clenching his chest. "Not another heart attack..."

[Evil Tink]

Solomon appeared in the bathroom with Holden, "It's not a heart attack Holden." He flipped the lid of the toilet down and forced Holden to sit on his. He placed his hand on Holden's chest, closing his eyes as he used it telekinesis to push away the Charun's power. "Just relax, alright?" "Alicia..she's at it again.."

[Bovice]

"I know Solomon... But I don't think this is Christine... This feels like a male..." Alicia rubbed her eyes. She has been keeping tabs on Holden all night.

Holden tried his best to calm down, but the more he felt the numbness reaching his heart, the more nervous he got. "What is going on Solomon?" He asked in between gasps.

[Evil Tink]

"Just be quiet Holden..I'm a bit busy here." "Yeah yeah whatever just help me here." Solomon put a powerful telekinetic block around Holden's heart, widening it to allow the organ to beat freely. Suddenly, Solomon's fingers started to bend backwards until they snapped. He winced a bit, but made no other notion of feeling it. He kept his focus on Holden's heart. "Alicia..check the yard..something's out there..I can hear it tramping about."

[Bovice]

Alicia helped Solomon's TK block on Holden's heart. She disappeared and landed outside to see nothing out there. "There's nothing..." She trailed off as she fell to her knees feeling a huge pressure on her brain. She concentrated as hard as she could and sent a huge wave of TK around the entire house.

[Evil Tink]

Solomon narrowed his eyes, "It's there Alicia..just look harder. Remember, Charun's can't technically be seen in their true form, so you have to look really hard."

Seemingly from nowhere, a white cat would be seen in the second half of it's jump as it landed on the grass. The creature's eyes, which were pitch black looked at Alicia for a moment, it's form was smokey and whisped around lightly in the gentle morning breeze. After a moment, the smokey cat ran up the side of the house, jumping through the closed bedroom window.

[Bovice]

Alicia's eyes widened as she saw the white cat appear from nowhere. "It just went into Holden's room." With that she disappeared. She landed in Holden's room, looking around closely...

Holden wanted to know what was going on, but he couldn't bother Solomon...
