Vane shook his head slightly as he followed her towards gym. "Right back to normal." He muttered with a sigh. When he reached gym class he headed over to the guys side and began to stretch. He refused to wear the gym attire, and cared little that it irritated the coach. He did his work and was passing the class and that was all that mattered at this time. He glanced towards Lilah once or twice, curious as to why she was acting the way she was with him, even after he had appologized to her.

Lilah was stretching out, the boy from the day before standing close before her, not hiding his leering at all.
"Forget her dude" one of the guys in the class, seeing Vane looking her way "She's the queen. No way guys like us have a chance" he walked away
Class went by as usual, this time no interactions between the two sides
Lilah went out to practice again, once again practicing their flips and twists |

"You have no clue." Vane stated with a shake of his head. He headed out where she was practicing, but stayed out of the way where she would be able to see him only if she was looking. He watched her and her team practice while listening to his music and playing with a ball of ice like he usually did.

Lilah didn;t actually notice him but when practice was done, instead of staying later she got her stuff together ready to head out with some of the girls. She glanced over at Vane and smiled slightly, not being able to help but wonder if he had come just because of what she said happened the night before when she walked home alone |

Vane saw her heading off with a group of the girls and nodded his head once before he moved to the parking lot. They would be able to hear his harley firing up as he headed towards his home, keeping an eye out for the creep who she had seen the night before.

Around midnight there was a knock at his door.
Lilah stood at his door, drenched from the rain. The water ran down making it impossible to differentiate the tears from the rainwater
Down the road there was a commotion of police and firefighters as Lilah's how burned bright with flames. Despite their efforts the firefighters didn't seem able to bring the flames now |

Vane was wearing only a pair of loose shorts that sat low on his hips. He opened the door, his hair a mess as he had just woken up from her knocking. "What..." He had intended to be ugly to who ever had woken him up until he saw Lilah. He looked down the road and saw the fire and sighed. "Demi-god fire." He muttered under his breath before moving aside to let her in. "Living room is that way." He said, pointing to the large spacious living room.

Lilah stepped in, she was a little stunned he let her in no questions asked, but she was also grateful for it. She was trying to keep herself under tight control but a single sob managed to course it's way through her body and she covered her mouth to try and hid it. She had her backpack with her still, having just gotten home from being out with her friend |

Vane guided her into the living room before going to the kitchen. He came back with something warm for her to drink and handed it to her. "Still moving stuff in." He said, referring to all the boxes that were all over the place. The house was massive in size and had beautiful interrior. The furniture was also quite expensive, though nothing was as grand as what had been at her home. It was, however, still quite nice.
"Do you know what happened exactly?" He asked, referring to the fire that was at her house.

Lilah was shaking by the time he got back, going into shock. She shook her head to answer his questions, her eyes almost blank by now and her legs curled tightly against her chest. She was shaking so much she could barely hold the cup he handed her |

Vane immediately took the cup back and set it down. He then grabbed a blanket and threw it around her to warm her up. "Lilah...you need to calm down." he told her softly, touching his hand gently to her cheek. He was about her, sure, but he was also aware that once she was past this she was going to be right back to her usual attitude.

Lilah moved forward and wrapped her arms around him, keeping the comfort of someone at the moment.
She began to sob into his shoulder, her hot tears soaking his shirt
"My....my parents..." she managed to croak out
They hadn't made it out of the house in time. Lilah had slipped away from the police after they had informed her she would have to spend the night at the station and would then be brought to child services in the morning. |

Vane was a bit surprised. He finally wrapped his arms around her in return. He looked up at the ceiling, his eyes glowing softly. He closed his eyes and silently prayed that a rain would come that would be able to put out the fire. When he opened his eyes he looked towards Lilah. "I will wake my father up and see if there is a way that you could stay here. At least until you dercide on what you want to do."

"Just tonight" Lilah said, letting him go, starting to calm down "I'll go to my friends out tomorrow, so you don't have to deal with me" she wiped her tears away though shaking a little "I just...need somewhere to stay tonight" |

Vane nodded. "Come on. I will show you to a guest room." As he spoke his mother came down stairs. "Antonio what is going on?"
Vane gave her a short explanation before showing Lilah to a spare room. As they passed his room, she would be able to see and old hand painted picture of Posiden on one wall, and different swimming trophies on another.
