Fantasy V.A.G.E. ( A 1x1 VillainxHero Rp)


Wolf only had enough time to turn his head before Liliana was on him. The surprise on his face was shadowed by the hood and his temporary mask. She grabbed his shirt and tossed him against the wall letting out a small “oof” as his back hit the wall. He felt her forearm press against his neck, and he instinctively reached up to push it off him, even just an inch so he could breathe. He locked eyes with her, if looks could kill he was sure she was doing it nice and slow making sure he felt every ounce of pain she could inflect. She began to rant and rave, telling him the risk she was taking to him, how she’s been wanting to strangle him, how if something were to happen no one in her life would know where she was. Wolf was taken aback, he had never seen her like this before, she always seemed to calm and collective. Yes, a little cocky at times but it never got to her head that she would make mistakes that could cost her, “You expect me to feel sorry for you?” Wolf suddenly says as he pushes back against her. He got in her face as he continued, “The world isn’t going to bend at your will just because you want something! Who the hell do you think you are? Just because you have powers you think everything is just going to fall in your lap. Let me tell you something Love, the world is a cruel place that will eat you up and spit you out. If you don’t keep that in mind you are just going to be another chalk outline in the streets!” It was as if Declan’s life flashed before his eyes as the words left his mouth. Everyone he cared about, the tragedy he accidentally survived, everything that led him to this moment flashed through his mind as the two sworn enemies stood in silence.

That’s when Wolf saw an opening. He quickly shoved Liliana away before a chain wrapped around her waist and pulled her away with such velocity it forced her through one of the walls of the room kicking up dirt and drywall dust into the air clouding his vision for a moment. Normally he would be cautious when he couldn’t lay eyes on the agent, especially when she was angry, however, he didn’t hear her move and was surprised to see her on the ground still when he walked through the hole. He knew she had a high pain tolerance so simply throwing her through the wall wasn’t enough to keep her on the ground like that. Which probably meant she was mentally defeated. If this was a month ago, he would reveal in this form of victory taunting her relentlessly and maybe tossing her around with his chains. However, he didn’t feel like doing that as a ping of guilt sat on his heart, so this is what you do to the women you “love”? he shook his head as he steps closer into the room, “is this what you look like when you don’t get your way, agent?” He says before he crosses his arms, “pitiful, like a spoiled child who didn’t get the toy they wanted.” he half turned towards the hole he created but kept his eyes on her, “I expected more from you, much more.” With those words said he turned around once again and walked off this time keeping his ears open and his ability at the ready just in case, she tried to attack him again and was disappointed when she didn’t.

He stepped out into the cool air, jumped to the top of one of the buildings and walked his way towards the building where he stored his clothes and bike. He felt the guilt rise up once again as the image of Liliana laying on the floor appeared in his mind. Did he go too far? Push her too far? He did have these feelings for her and yet he still taunted her, toyed with her. Should he separate himself from her? This job got a lot harder since the kiss last week. These feelings, he hasn’t felt like this since falling for…He heard a faint rumbling that cut through his thoughts. It didn’t take him long to figure out what it was and where it was coming from. He pulled out his phone from his pants and opened the screen, the brightness flash banging his eyes after getting used to the darkness. He read the text several times and each time he stopped himself from text back. Should he text her back? He just left her on the floor in the building and now he’s going to go there and play hero? Pretty pathitic of you, Declan he shook his head as his fingers tapped on the buttons of his phone, this is a bad idea, you’re missing the plot he was about to push send when she suddenly sent him the address where she was at. He recognized the address as it was the same place he just left her don’t do it, Declan. You’re just getting too involved, do your job and move on Declan quickly typed ‘I’m on my way’ before quickly getting changed into his normal outfit you’re seriously missing the plot Declan…

Declan made sure to take the long way to get to Lily. Getting to her too fast could cause her to become suspicious, although the streets where empty with how late it was so getting there too fast would still be realistic, right? He turned the corner and slowly drove down the road looking left and right trying to find her before he saw a lone figure standing near an alleyway, her gaze on the ground and then at him when she heard the engine of his bike getting closer. He stopped in front of her and jumped off his bike. He barely took off his helmet when Liliana suddenly rushed him and hugged him tightly. He was caught off guard before he slowly wrapped his arms around her and held tightly, making sure he didn’t accidently hit her with his helmet since she didn’t give him time to put it down god you’re such an asshole, Declan He felt her tremble a little and he rubbed her back to try and calm her down, “Are you ok, Lily?” Wow, you really are an asshole he suddenly heard soft sobs and felt her balling up the fabric of shirt under her fist as if she was trying to keep herself from cry, “Lily,” he says softly before he buries his head in her shoulder and just holds her. He didn’t have the words to comfort her. How could he? He was the one who caused this wasn’t he? And now here he was trying to play the part of caring boyfriend…or friend, “I’m here, Lily, I’m here.” He says as he rubs her back, “I got you.”

Once she got herself under control Declan led her back to his bike and waited until she got on before he handed her his helmet. Surprisingly, she didn’t fight him and just put it on as he got on his bike. She knew the routine; she wrapped her arms around his midsection and tapped him giving him the signal she was ready. Declan nodded and gave her hand a squeeze, it didn’t mean anything, but he felt he had to do it. The drive was nothing worth writing home about, he did take the freeway as usual, cruising through the empty freeway and missing two of the exits before taking the third which would add ten minutes to the drive, but he was sure she didn’t mind, she liked riding his bike after. Declan slowed to a stop as they reached the parking lot of her apartment building. He kicked down the stand and turned off his bike before tapping her hand to signal it was safe for her to get off. She didn’t react, in fact, she didn’t even move. Even when Declan turned his head to look at her she stayed in her position, “we’re here Lily.” He calls to her, his hand tapping her hand again but this time running his thumb along the top of her hand, along her knuckles. He saw her shoulders rise and fall before he got off and took off her helmet. She handed him his Helmit, “thanks.” He says but found himself grabbing her hand instead of his helmet it was holding. The non couple locked eyes for a moment, “Lily, what happened?” he asked a ping of guilt as he already knew the answer so he decided to change the question a little, “this week has been weird.” He chuckled trying to insert some humor, but it fell flat.

“Is this what you look like when you don’t get your way, Agent?” His words echoed in her mind just as if the world was nothing but an empty room. "Pitiful, like a spoiled child who didn’t get the toy they wanted.” He wasn't wrong. V.A.G.E. Had her as their golden child, one of the best agents they had and put her so high on a pedestal that now it finally hit her that she wasn't as high and mighty as she once thought. Villains didn't play by the rules, they weren't going to work with her even if it meant it would help them in the long run. “I expected more from you, much more.” Wolf slammed the nail in the coffin so hard that she was sure that the wood had split in the process. Even a Villain expected more from her than a seemingly spoiled child. "He's right..." The words came softly from her mouth as she felt like she could kick herself in the ass. Never before did she have an issue like this... But maybe her lens that she had been using was only one way and was only black and white... Maybe there was more to it than what meets the eye. Wrapping her arms around herself, she waited outside the alley with her hood down and her cloak covering her body Perhaps I need to refresh myself... Reflect... Look at everything that's changed around me... Nothing was the same as it used to be, she had Tiffany to worry about, Declan to... Well... Figure out. She wanted him, she really did. But yet she was keeping him at arms length and only bringing him in when it was convenient for her. That wasn't right.

Blue hues lowered to the ground, sometimes lifting to make sure nothing caught her off guard. The only time she did notice something different was the sound of an engine filling the air. When she had looked, she knew instantly that it was Declan. Who always dropped everything for her, would always be by her side like he said he would. James was cruel. Really, really, cruel. The man that she was falling in love with stopped in front of her and got off his bike before following that up with removing the helmet. The agent did not spare a second the moment his helmet had been removed. She had thrown herself into his arms and held him tightly as if he was going to float away from her as all the emotions finally crushed her and her body trembled here and there. He really did show... I know he told me he was on his way I just... I'm so stupid... It didn't take long for her eyes to blur up before tears began to race down her face and soft sobs escaped her lips. It seemed like she was starting to realize that maybe she was more fucked up than she had thought. Maybe she did need to reflect a hell of a lot harder than before. Fingers grasped the fabric underneath her hands as she could feel Declan's head being buried into her with his soft voice. He was seriously her kryptonite. "Declan..." Even as his name went past her lips, she had only grasped tighter and cried even more.

It took a hot minute to control herself, pull everything back into its box that it spilled from and shut it tight for now. It was almost as if Declan knew that she was ready as he slowly pulled from her and guided her to his bike. One of the favorite things in her life was riding with him while he rode at dangerous speeds. He handed her his helmet and as much as she hated when he did this, he did it for her safety. It was kind of him every time she didn't have her own at one point. But she didn't hate it any less. They mounted the bike, followed the usual, and were off. The ride was as good as it always was, making her feel free with the wind brushing her skin and her hair flowing through it. But this time, it didn't feel as exhilarating as it had before. Though it did give her time to think a little bit before they stopped. When she looked, they were already home... That was too fast... So fast that she wasn't ready to leave Declan's side even after he parked. His touch was soft, trying to give comfort to her before he got up and helped her pull the helmet off and when she held it out, he grabbed her hand instead and she moved said-helmet onto the seat in front of her. Butterflies fluttered in her core while their gazes locked Even when driving without his helmet to get that messy look, he still looks handsome. The agent thought before he asked her what happened and then tried to make light of the situation.

Declan tried, she would definitely give him that. He even got a small smile out of her as her hand had squeezed his a little "I... Mmm..." It was almost as if there was a cotton ball in her throat, making it hard for her to admit she forced a meeting with Wolf. Before he could speak, Lily pulled up her other hand to stop him and let out a gentle sigh and forced herself to spill the beans "I... I tracked down an accomplice of Wolf... He gave me the address that I gave you because I demanded he meet up with me." Eyes dropped down a little bit towards the ground "We met up... He took precautions of course but I wasn't going there to fight. He's the whole reason why I started to... Look into the incident. The Island." Looking back to him, she drew in a breath and paused for a moment before releasing it "I tried to get some answers since everything at V.A.G.E. is red taped. Im as high of a level as can be for my role and it still isn't enough." Reaching for his other hand, she grasped that one too "I didn't... I'm sorry I didn't tell you...I should've... I've been planning this for a full week and it was all for nothing. I just needed something. Needed anything to get by it. Just information from the source alone." Lifting her eyes to lock with his golden ones, her expression was soft and remourseful.

James had done so much between going behind his back, shoving him away, leading him on... It was selfish and she was very ignorant. Spoiled. That's what she was. As much as she hated the word, it didn't make it any less truthful. Stepping closer to him she pressed her gentle lips upon his cheek because lets face it, he came out here for her and it was late at night. He didn't have to and on top of it all... He deserved it. Actually he deserved far more after what she's pulled. "I'm spoiled rotten, Declan. I don't ask for help, I expect answers when I demand them and throw a tantrum when I don't get them... He was right." Lilliana's forehead rested against his shoulder as she used it as an advantage to hide her face "I'm like a child all over again. When I thought I had it all figured out... I didn't." It had been so easy to talk to him, open up to him. When she got too comfortable she got scared and closed up like a clam. "He didn't need to beat me up with his fists, his words were sharper than a knife if I'm honest. Probably thought he'd never win like that before." Pulling her hands from the comfort of his warm ones, she pulled away slightly and cupped his face in her hands while her blue eyes looked over his features. "I'm not the woman everyone thinks I am. This badass, this flawless being who always brings justice..." This night was really starting to get to her. This is why she drank wine at night, to just calm down. To think. To process.

"Enough about that..." Thumbs brushed against his cheeks softly as the continued "I've also hurt you. I've avoided you for a full week after the night at my apartment." A dusting of a blush came up to her lips "And... I shouldn't have. I loved everything in that moment. The way you held me, the way you kissed my skin...The way you kissed me." Lily's face got even redder as she almost seemed to hide it by looking away "I'm really sorry." Everything spilled like a child spilling their drink. It just went and that was it. Those hands of hers went to slip down to his chest, feeling his heart thump against her palm. Maybe she should head inside, let him go home and sleep. Who knows how long he's been up for at this rate and they had work in the morning. Luckily Jeannie had off as she was currently watching Tiffany back in the apartment. "I wouldn't...Expect you to still want me after that...After all this..." Wow she really was acting like a teenager. What the hell happened?
 
Declan listened as Liliana spoke, retelling the events of what happened hours ago between her and Wolf, events he had already known because of his secret identity as said Wolf. He knew after their discussion he left her beaten and broken in the abandoned building, calling her a spoiled brat and disappointing. He felt guilty when he left her behind in that building but now the guilt was eating him alive seeing her now, As Declan, her Not Boyfriend. She looked into his eyes when she said she should of spoken with him about her plan, "yes, you should have." he suddenly says, "Lily, what you did was dangerous, what if something were to happen to you? Tiff would of been sad and I...I...don't know what I would of done..." god, the guilt was eating him alive. Pretending he was some concerned boyfriend after he himself was the one who threw out the insults that was currently breaking her. He knew when he started this he was going to have to play both sides but he wasn’t expecting this, he wasn’t expecting her.

She closed the gap between them and kissed his cheek before she continued, he placed his hands on her waist and kept her close. She agreed with him that she was spoiled, things had gone her way for so long that this plan of hers going sideways broke that confidence that he admired both as Declan and as Wolf. However, what surprised him was when she brought him up. She brought up how she had hurt him by avoiding him and admitted she loved the kiss they shared a week ago and apologizing before finally finishing off by saying she wouldn't be surprised if he didn't want her. Before she could finish her words, he pulled her into a kiss. No shoulder teases, biting that 'spot' he found that day. He just wanted to kiss her lips and allow the smell of strawberry intoxicate him just like that did that night of their first kiss. The kiss wasn't passionate, it wasn't meant to be, it was his way of saying no matter what happened or how stupid she felt he still wanted her, regardless.

Declan broke the kiss and rests his forehead against hers, "you talk too much, Lily." Declan says jokingly and smiles at her as he places his hand on her cheek and brushed her lips with his thumbs, "No matter what decision you made, dumb or otherwise, it doesn't make me want you less. Yes, you should have told me where you were going if not for my sake, then for Tiff's. You are her sister and if something where to happen to you she'll have to move back with her oh so great parents and I wouldn't be able to stop it...or..." he stopped himself and shook his head, "never mind, it's getting late, Lily, and I'm sure Jeannie and Tiff are waiting for you." as much as he didn't want to end this night he knew it was probably best for her to get some sleep and hopefully get someone her spunk back after beating her down with words.

However, before he could take a single step towards the building she stopped him telling him she wanted to be with him some more. They couldn’t just stay outside, “well…” he started as he rubbed the back of his head, “ok, we can…uh…we can go to my place then.” He says looking at Liliana waiting for her to respond to see what she wanted to do if she didn’t want to go to his apartment, “or see if the café is open? I doubt it’s open…maybe a late night diner…oh wait…” he checked his pockets and sighs “fuck, I forgot my wallet…um…we can do…” he trailed off as he tried to think of what they could do this late at night instead of going to his apartment since it made it seem like he was trying to do…something in her vulnerable state.

The Agent's eyes had widened as his lips crashed into hers to stop her from talking any more than she had. The way he had embraced her and the way he guided their kiss had given so much comfort and felt like it could wash away all her worries within milliseconds. Those same blue eyes closed as she returned the kiss, wanting to just get lost in this moment and forget everything that happened before he came to get her. However, the good things had to come to an end and the warmth of his forehead against hers continued its assault of comfort upon her. Declan's words hit her just as hard as Wolfs' had. What if something did happen? Tiff would have to be sent back and... While she was unsure what he was going for next, she could assume she knew what he may have said next You wouldn't know what to do without me? The words never left her lips, but she had hoped that maybe this thought was correct. That's when her partner went to walk towards the building and her hand had shot out, grasping his hand tightly with a somewhat worried expression as her heart picked up in pace. "I... No... I'm not ready to go back..." Dammit she had made him come out here and even the short time they spent from the drive wasn't enough for her.

Was James being greedy again? Absolutely. No doubt that this was her being selfish. "Can we spend a little more time together...?" I feel like such a damn child... Such a childish request. "I've done enough damage and all I could think about is just staying with you." It felt like her heart was about to burst out of her chest, it was so loud she could barely even hear. That was till he suggested going back to his place and of course she was perfectly fine with that. After all, he'd been to hers twice so far. What would be the difference going to his? He then panicked and began to search for his wallet as he mentioned the cafe and trying so hard to find something else to do. This moment reminded her of the first day they met where he was so clumsy with the papers, dropping them everywhere and trying to be professional. Lily's lips tugged into a closed smile before she started to laugh and her full smile came into view. When he had asked what she was laughing about, she easily responded "Nothing, nothing. Just... You reminded me of the first day we met. That's all." James continued to giggle as she brought her hand to her lips "We can go to your apartment. That's fine." Anything to prevent him from getting a heart attack.

"Though, this time I don't want the helmet on." That's when it happened: The pair was going back and forth about wearing the darn helmet but Lilliana was being stubborn about it. "Declan, please. I don't want to wear it. Let me just feel the wind at its full glory. No one is out and you drive just fine. We'll be safe." Why was it she was continuously beginning to feel like a child the more she asked and begged him for things? This was the last thing that she would want to do. But then again, Declan has really been taking away many of her firsts. It shouldn't be a surprise at this rate. "Just this once? Please." She said, giving him one of her unintentional puppy eyed look before he caved and put the helmet on his own head. There was a sense of joy, a sense of pride in winning against him. Even if she had cheated a little bit. Now I get to feel entirely free this time. I get to know how it feels to ride without a helmet. Letting him get onto his bike first with his helmet, she got on the back and immediately fell into their same routine of safety checks before he drove off with the motorcycle revving in the air. That's when her eyes began to slowly widen, the wind being far louder than before but yet felt so good upon her skin. The night sky making the air cool and the only thing lighting the area was some lights and eventually just nothing but darkness on the highway as soon as they got there.

Lily knew that the rule was to keep her arms around Declan, but she couldn't help but want to continue pushing herself to feel this win. After all, she was sure he'd never let her have it again. While one arm remained, the other went out to her side, feeling the wind through her fingers and blowing her sleeves absolutely everywhere. So this is what it felt like? Despite the chill biting her skin, she loved how it felt and wished that she could use both hands to throw out to the sides. This is amazing. This...This is why I didn't want it to end... Not tonight. I just hope he feels the same. Eventually the agent did find her way back up against him, her arms wrapped around him and keeping her in place as that smile seemed to be plastered on her face of content. Soon their ride came to an end and he had parked next to a building that looked similar to hers but not exact. It was clear it wasn't just some brick building with some shabby apartments. It actually looked quite nice. He was a transfer after all. As soon as he gave the all clear, she got off the bike and tried to fix her hair a little bit before deciding to just let it all fall out of the partial bun she always kept it in. Then once Declan was ready, she grabbed his hand and walked with him in the lead straight to his apartment "So this is where the famous Declan lives."

While she had been teasing him, it would be her first time at his place. Usually they were at the cafe, her place, or just the agency but now... She was going into the den of Declan himself. A home said a lot about someone, so she wondered what would be found within. As he guided them up to his floor and to his apartment, he put the keys into the door and unlocked it. While he allowed her to walk in first, she was careful and slowly she removed her shoes and put them to the side. This was shortly followed by her removing her cloak and revealing the black and silver-colored outfit. In all honesty, she seemed almost like an assassin with how it looked on her. Carefully, she folded it up in her hands and looked over her shoulder and up at Declan. "Nice place."
