[Flashback]Lost and Confused (Tock)

[Vondra Valencia]

She almost wished Tock would urge her to continue and a part of her thought they would but the oddest sensation came over her. It felt as if her stomach had leapt into her throat and was slowly trying to crawl out. It was only after the other girls voice reached her ears that she realized they had slipped and nearly fallen off the roof. Obviously it was a sign, well, that and the owners curses began to get louder, sounding very much as if he would go get help to ‘persuade’ them to get down. Vondra was still in a bit of shock from almost falling, letting Tock guide her around the roof with the ease of one who could see. She was suddenly very grateful that she couldn’t see their near fall. However her relief was cut short as she heard the demand of the other. “I’m not jumping!” But it came out as more of a breathless squeak, she wondered if she was afraid of heights and leaned a bit forward from where she had been only to have her hand meet air. Instantly she flung herself back and breathed deeply. Hearing shouting that was obviously the problematic man. He must have known they were down now. His threats and shouts about monies owed had her diving off. “Don’t drop me!” Once more the feeling ate at her stomach but she didn’t feel much of anything save for a warm body once more and a bit of ground. There was a small twinge that curled up her spine but it wasn’t particularly unpleasant and she shivered lightly. “That was new.” And promptly she burst out laughing, shakily moving away from Tock but not before planting a small kiss on her cheek. Hearing the man’s shout get closer. “We should probably leave now.” She hesitated for only a moment longer, “You should come find me again if you stay longer!” With that she tried to hurry away from both the girl and the angry voice that seemed to have gained another during their descent. It would be easier it Tock ran another way. Hurrying but trying not to look obvious or fall into a canal Vondra moved with her arms nearly straight out in front of her, only realizing once the voices faded that she still had no clue where she was or what time it was. “Aw, petch.”

Tock caught the other girl a bit clumsily, almost falling down under the sudden weight in her arms, though luckily Vondra was quite slim. She set the girl down, blushing at bit at the kiss she received in reward, then turned towards the sound of the shouting voice. "Aye, right," she said, agreeing that leaving the area was probably a good idea. Though she had expected Vondra would want to flee together, instead of parting ways. Yet the blind girl ran off, leaving Tock behind, alone, confused, and a bit embarrassed. But the owner of the damaged roof came around the building just then, and she had to turn and flee. Without a clue which part of the city she was in, she weaved and dodged through whatever walkways she could find, making good her escape. Once she was sure she was safe, she wandered a bit, trying to find her way back to the place where her rented room was. Her thoughts lingered back to the kiss, curiosity and wonder still filling her. It was a pity the girl had run off without telling Tock how to find her. She didn't much care from an emotional perspective... while Tock wasn't any kind of slut, nor the type to throw around physical affections, she had certainly enjoyed the girl's company even before the kiss. She held no romantic notions, not a single thought of 'what it meant' or 'where it might lead.' It had simply been a fun and educational experience... ...and one she wanted to repeat.
