Reporting in to the King

[Alena K Alibi]

Alena rushed down the darkened halls of the Shadow court. The Court area was so much bigger than the other two Courts and lit by candle light. Psych did love the old sort of lighting. She dodged some people, not even noticing that someone was walking down the hall with a fencing foil that was sharpened, her arm was cut open, not a large gash but enough to bleed a bit.

She didn't notice in her hyper and happy state, bursting through the doors of his office. Rushing to his desk she placed the cookies she brought and curled up in one of the chairs infront of it. "Hiya Psy-Psy! I just came from the Winter court! Pierre asked me to have tea with him and it was really really cold there, but he sent me this pretty dress so I went to be nice and the tea and cookies were really really good. He says he doesn't hate you and that he wants to give me a present!"Alena said happily before looking down and noticing the scratch, she stared at it in silence for a few moments before starting to sniffle. A noble of the court appearing at the doorway with a shameful face. "She..ah..She ran past me and accidently clipped my foil..I..Is she alright?"the man asked, fearfully.

[William 'Psych' Turner / Knox]

Psych looked up from his work and eyed the cookies. He lent back in his chair as soon as he noticed her sniffle. He stood and walked to a small chat of drawers in the corner of the room and opened the bottom most drawer. The young man withdrew a first aid kit and walked back to the desk. He totally ignored the courtier until he'd cleaned the wound and then covered it with a band-aid that had lots of candy on it. "She's all right. It wasn't your fault. Alena,apologize for making the poor boy worry," Psych requested in a calm voice, his over all demeanor more slow and graceful, almost like a predator stalking prey. He was going to hurt Pierre badly for his bothering Alena.

Psych looked at the boy as he stood there, the foil that she's run into had a little blood on it. He strode to it and plucked it from the trembling mans hands and took the tail of his black jacket and wiped it clean before handing it back.

[Alena K Alibi]

Alena looked to the man, smiling brightly now that Psych made her boo-boo all better. "It's otay! Really! I was runnin' too fast so it's fine! I didn't mean to make you all upset and worried!"she ran over to the person, hugging them gently, making sure to avoid the foil this time. She moved away, the boy blushing a bit and stammering a good-bye before leaving the room, bowing his head in respect to Psych before he left though. Alena then turned back to Psych with a bright smile and hugged him gently.

"I missed-ed you Psy-Psy!"she said childishly nuzzling her cheek against his chest before letting go and twirling in place. "Psy-Psy, how come you and Pierre fight so much? Aidan says it is cause you two are fighting a 'who's bigger' contest but I don't understand that...And Kyle says its cause you two are silly. But, I don't think you're silly! You can be, but only when you wanna."Alena stated before giggling softly. It really was not a bright idea for her to have all that sugar.

[William 'Psych' Turner / Knox]

Psych smiled at her and then placed a hand on her head. "Aiden is mostly right. We're fighting to see who's got the bigger and better court in the school." Psych's voice was calm and gentle as he spoke to her. He ruffled her hair a little before pulling her close to him in a hug.

If you looked close at his face, you could see the dark bags under his eyes from staying up late and wandering the halls and the garden. He couldn't sleep for fear that she was going to be taken from him and Knox wouldn't let him sleep with the winter court heatedly pursuing his little butterfly. today just seemed to be the icing on the cake. Psych began to walk back to his desk to sit down, mumbling something about there being a warm bath or read in the cold white winter court soon.

[Alena K Alibi]

Alena giggled and smiled brightly before fixing her hair, and snuggling against one of her favorite people in the school. "But...But we're better aren't we Psy-Psy? That's what Mister Purple-eyes told me and he wouldn't lie. Plus, we have the talent show, and the pretty dance and Pierre can't do that, right? Chrsie says he can't."she said before going to sit on his desk, a bit away from his work, her legs dangling off the edge. "Look at how tired he is...You should suggest he naps some.."Miss Lucy told her before she nodded. "Me and Miss Lucy think you should take a nappy Psy-Psy. You look tired and I'll be here! Promise! I won't get into any trouble. And even if I do leave, I'll make sure I go with Kyle, cause sissy won't let Pierre near me anyway. I know you're worried about him cause you always frown more when I say his name." Alena nodded a bit before wiggling her nose against Psych's and giggling. "Bunny kissies!"

[William 'Psych' Turner / Knox]

Psych looked at her like she's grown another head before he yawned openly while picking up his pen. "I will as soon as I finish this, okay?" he asked gently before he was bombarded with the over flowing cuteness of the 'Bunny Kisses'. "Thank Miss Lucy for seeing that I needed a nap?" he asked as he finished marking up the last of the requests for activities given to him by his Lords and ladies of the court. He stood and picked her up off of the desk and gave her the bag of cookies that she'd set there. "While I'm asleep, why don't you go share these with Kyle."

[Alena K Alibi]

Alena nodded a bit and smiled brightly before kissing his forehead. "I will, she says there is no need to thank her. Someone has to make sure you rest."she said giggling softly before frowning a bit and shaking her head, a cute pout on her lips. "If I go then you'll just work more! I'm gonna stay here and make sure you sleep. And...And when you wake up we can go find Kyle together and get something to eat! Or go to the pool! Or...Or maybe even go chase some butterflies"Alena smiled brightly again before hopping off of the desk, taking Psych's hand and trying to lead him to the bed. "I can tuck you in! Yup yup! So, you can sleep nice and comfy."she stated, her whole outfit, no her whole being standing out in the dark decor of the room. But, then again that is what Alena did in the Shadow Court. She was the light, the happiness, to such a dark group. Something they could all take a moment and smile or giggle at.

[William 'Psych' Turner / Knox]

Psych looked at her as she radiated worry and comfort for him. He sighed a tired sigh and smiled at her as she pulled him toward the spare bed in his office. He sat on the bed heavily and Knox grumbled out inside of his head "You're not going to sleep for real, are you? but William ignored him as he snuggled down under the thin comforter that the bed had been made with. Will closed his eyes and relaxed into the plush mattress under him, letting her think he was falling asleep.

[Alena K Alibi]

Alena watched Psych for a few moments, when she finally declared that he was asleep she leaned over. "Sleep tight sleepy head. I luvvle you."she whispered, kissing his forehead before giving him 'bunny kisses'. She then hopped away from the bed, looking at him one more time before she took the cookies and started down the hall again. "Butterflies...Butterflies..."she said in a sing-song voice as she giggled and twirled around. She was going to change her dress first, since there was a little blood on it, then go to her butterfly garden.

[William 'Psych' Turner / Knox]

Psych let her leave and waited until he was sure she was out of the court room before he sat up and then slipped off his bed. He "made" it quickly, which meant that he tossed the blanket back over the sheets and pillows and walked out of the room. He closed and locked the door before he went to follow Alena, sure that Pierre would try to talk to her again.
