Just Visiting (Seb and Willow)

Sin hoped the scenery would help cheer Willow up and show how he felt about her. Sam wa sher brother and was happy to only be her brother, but not Sin.

"Why so quiet mi corazon...? Did you not like it? Have i done something wrong..? Im sorry..."

"Im glad you liked the dance Willow my dear. You were pretty good yourself" He winked.

"Hmmm? Oh, that! No no, i feel fine. My...medication... keeps the wolf in me at bay. I dont feel sick at all. I could stay out here and dance with you til dawn if i knew you didnt need to get home and sleep." He smiled with a laugh and cupped her face in his hands. "The only thing you can give me is the joy of your company".

He wanted to bend down and kiss her lips but thought better of it. He took hold of her hands again and strolled with her along the cloud and sky line. He wrapped his arm around her shoulder and smiled at her.

"Willow Hartman... Ingrid Wazowski..." Sin repeated to Willow the most beautiful lines Sam had ever said to Crystella, only with a lot more passion. "You are the Beauty to my Beast... the Esmerelda to my Quasimodo... You are a goddess and i your humble servant... I know its not appropriate of me to say Willow... but..." He held her by the hand but couldnt look her in the eye. "I... I..."

A loud shrill shriek sounded in his head. It didnt hurt but it made him uncomfortable. It was Saizilia punishing him. He wasnt allowed to love or be close to someone... no matter how much he wanted to...

Sin sighed sadly. "Im sorry Willow... Would it be ok if i wlaked you home? Or if you could just stay with me for a little while longer? I promise i'll stop now..."

Saizilia screamed furiously in his head. He tried his best to block her out. He knew it was dangerous to defy his master, but why should Sam have known what it was like to love someone, yet Sin be denied that?
He hoped he hadnt upset Willow, he never wanted to do that... He felt ashamed of himself...

Willow smiled and hugged Sam close to her shaking her head and giggling softly at him, how could he have upset her after doing something so sweet for her even if it did send little alarm bells ringing in her head but she assumed that Sam was just being his normal oblivious self to the fact that he was being very romantic with her, and that he would be hurt if she picked him up on it.

"NO no no Sam! You've done nothing wrong, dont apologize please, you need never apologize to me alright?"

She walked along the sky with him and she smiled again squeezing the hand that she held.

"Wow, those meds sound like they cure all! Are they a recent breakthrough or something? Because if they are they're going to help an awful lot of people and I'm glad that you're one of them Big Brother, I dont like the sound of you being hurt by this...condition."

Willow admitted honestly. She blushed wildly as Sam called her all of those things and that's when it signalled a definate in her head, Sam liked her didn't he? Part of her didn't want to ask in case she was being stupid but Willow opened her mouth to speak...

"S-sam? Do you...do you..." Chickening out at the last moment Willow smiled widely and asked "Do you really want to spend more time with me? I'd be happy to hang out with you a little longer, I dont want to go back to being on my own just yet."

Willow wrapped her arm through Sam's linking them together and resting her head on his shoulder as they walked.

"What a cute laugh you have" He smiled. "Thats a relief then, i was worried i'd upset you." He squoze her hand back gently.

"Er.. yeeees (lets go with that).. they are pretty good.. my mas- sister made them for me. Im testing them for her but they may yet prove to be a breakthrough. And dont worry Willow... being a werewolf... wasnt the worse thing for him- er, me..." He felt bad about lying to her; its not like he wanted to.

"Yes Willow...?" Did she see how he felt? Even though he had just met her, he was a string believer in what he had read about love at first sight. Yes he hadnt got there first and Willow's heart belonged to another, but that didnt change how he felt inside.

He felt like a mountain side had toppled on top of him and crushed him. Willow didnt return his feels. He wasnt going to force her to. He was happy to adore someone; he wouldnt ask them to love he back when he didnt deserve love.
"Of course i want to spend more time with you. I love bing in your company and i told you... big brother... is here for you. Well... at the moment my sister needs me so i can only pay small visits, but i'll run halfway across the world for you if you need me."

He clicked his fingers and a twisting cloud staircase floated down to the floor.
"Sky or ground? Or alternatively,"He clicked his fingers and a broom appeared in his hands. "Walk or fly? If you'd like, we could go flying next time we meet eachother."

Willow felt bad for Sam, after going through one of the most horrible things a man could go through, the break up of himself from his love and now he was developing feelings for her. Willow stopped walking and linked her hands with Sams stopping him too and looking deep into his eyes.

"Sam..."

She whispered hugging her arms around his neck to move her closer together to Sam.

"Do you like me...as in, like like?"

Willows ears perked up and she bit her lip lightly what was going on with him today, he was acting so differently and this new show of feelings, the meds, the new jacket? She hugged herself closer to him and smiled into his neck as she lay her head on his shoulder.

"And Sam...just wondering I know this sounds so stupid of me but what's going on with you today, you're so different today and you're so...romantic. Aren't you worried about Jamie?"

Willow bit her lip and wondered again if she was just being silly, the break up may have been the thing he needed to snap him back into a more respectable state. The appearance of the man improving greatly and Willow thought just for a moment that he looked handsome, attractively so.

"I thought you hated flying..."

Sin could get lost in those eyes of hers. The sound of Sam's name was starting to make him feel sick for some reason. Did he not like him? Maybe he didnt. He didnt want to be Sam, he wanted to be his own person; but it didnt matter what he wanted, he had a job to do until Saizilia told him otherwise.

"Yes Willow...?" He wrapped his arms around her shoulders and stroked her hair, nuzzling the side of her face gently. "I think its more than just like you mi corazon... griam thu... i love you very much... but i know you dont love me in that way and thats ok... even to just be granted the honour of being your friend is precious enough..."

He wished he had the power to freeze time into a single moment and keep it forever...
He didnt mean to make Willow feel awkward. If he knew how the interact with people properly, he'd know he wasnt behaving lik a normal person should.

"Im sorry Willow... it may be the...medication... making me act strange... but the feelings are true... i swear... Of course he's - i'm worried about him, but im more concerned about you than anything or anyone else in all honesty. Does that make me a terrible person...? I am going to do something stupid that is going to make you or him dislike me?"

He was happy for the change in subject.
"He - I did, but not anymore, not if its with you. I've been practising while i was away especially . Did you find that charm thing i gave you useful while your wings were growing back?"

Willow smile grew a little bit, that explained quite a lot in terms of why he was acting strange around her today, she secretly wondered why Sam would like, no love her, when he used to be so in love with his partner? She supposed that these things often grew apart in time, maybe it had ended because his partner had found love in someone else?

"Well, that makes a lot of sense now Sam. Explains why you're so different around me. But even though me and Jamie are having problems we're still together and hopefully we'll be able to patch them up sometime soon. However, Sam, I do love you as a brother so...will that love do for now?"

She bit her lip and she felt Sam nuzzle the side of her head and Willow quite enjoyed the feeling of his warm skin against her cool skin.

"You're not a terrible person at all Sam, you're going through a tough time and sometimes our feeligns go haywire when that happens, but I can safely say that I wont be telling him you waltzed with me to Frank Sinatra up in the clouds, he gets jealous."

Willow began to walk again down the staircase in the clouds swinging her hand that was entwined with Sams.

"Yes it was very useful, I still have it with me, if you want it back?"

Sin could hear Saizilia screaming and scolding him in his head.
"You retarded useless creation! You're supposed to act like my dimwitted brother! Act right or I'll obliterate you!" She warned him.

"I'm sorry Willow... I don't know what I was thinking... I'm sorry...please forgive me mi corazon.... I hope you two do work things out. I'll always be here for you, and will respect your decision..." He smiled into her eyes. "If that love comes from someone as wonderful as you, then of course that's enough." He laughed. "Ha ha, yeah... Maybe we just keep that as our little secret eh?"

He squoze her hand gently. How dainty it was compared to his practically paw like hands.
"Yes thank you.... That's if you don't mind or if you don't need it anymore. It's just that I think my sister will have needs of its benefits one day. Speaking of which... would you still like me to accompany you home? I can't stay for long you see because....because my sister needs my help with some things. She expects me to meet her at certain times you see."

Willow felt a little sad when Sam began to grow distant once more, she knew it was cruel of her but she had secretly enjoyed the attention very much but she knew that it wasn't right to lead Sam on like this even though she had a feeling that she wouldn't be taken for very much longer. Biting her lip she reached down to where the shirt she was wearing buttoned up and pulled the charm from where it lay beneath her shirt.

"There you go Sam."

She handed it to him and slid her hand away from his own with a lingering touch, Willow bit her lip once more and nodded her head, she would like for him to walk her home but she didn't want to inconvenience him.

"If you want to...you dont have to I understand how important your sister is to you."

It was wrong of him to throw himself at het, Sin knew that now... How could he ever hope to win the heart of someone like her? Did he have no moral value at all to try to woo a woman who had already been wooed...?

"Gracias mi corazon. I'm sorry, I wish you could keep it, but she wants it back."

He took back hold of her hand, not wanting to ever let go.
"I'd love to walk you home. I love the sister standing before me a lot more" he winked with a smile.

He walked by her side and passed by her parents grave on the way out of the graveyard.
"Fear not Mr and Mrs Wazowski, I'll be sure to get your daughter home safely."

Willow smiled a sort of sad smile and she took Sam's hand again as she made to walk out of the graveyard, her fingers entwined in his and she swung their hands in the air again like she used to do when she was a child. She loved Sam a lot and she was sorry that he felt something for her that she could not return, at least, that she couldn't return in actions.

"It's no problem Sam, my wings are back now and they're all I need, it would be selfish of me to keep this charm when your sister wants it back."

She giggled a little as Sam addressed her parents she was glad that he like her thought of them still being able to hear, still being around to see Willow and watch over her.

"Why thank you kind sir! It's an honour to be escorted home by one so gentlemanly as you."

Sin clocked the smile and smiled at her, stroking her cheek. "No esté triste mi ángel..."

He didnt know what to make of the hand swinging thing; after all he had never elarnt how to act like this through childhood interaction, but he smiled and laughed and just went along with it.

He sang a song softly under his breath.
"...everything she does is beautiful... everything she does is right... 'cause its you and me... and all of the people with nothing to do.. nothing to lose.. and its you and me and all of the people... and i dont know why... i cant keep my eyes off of you... whats day is it... and in what month... this clock never seemed so alive"
A bit of a coincidence that last line, becuase the life clock around his neck did seem more energetic, and he felt more real and alive when he was around Willow. No other person he had met thus far had made him feel like more than a clay shell; Willow made him feel like he could leap over oceans in a single bound and hold the sun in his hands, or like he had always been alive, and nothing could grant him any other happiness then just being able to look into her beautiful eyes.

"I would never label you with a harsh word such as selfish. If anything, my sister is just being lazy and selfish by hording it to herself and never looking for another alternative just in case it proves to be the hard way when she much prefers the easy way out. Oh i am sorry, i didnt sound horrid then did i?"

He wouldnt know how he came across. His voice wasnt monotone, but his tone of voice hardly ever changed and he wasnt sure if he sounded cold or bitter or not. After all, the only person he was used to talking to most often was a cold and bitter person herself.

Sin looked up at the clouds and wondered instead what they would taste like if they were even edible, and if their flavour changed depending on colour. Tehy'd probably just taste like stale water though. Even though he had just been dancing in them, he wondered if they'd make a nice bed, and whether or not they would feel cushiony like cotton.

He smiled when he heard that adorable giggle of hers again. Was it silly to talk to gravestones? He didnt think so. In mexico they had 'el día del muertos' and believed that spirits walked among the living. And why not? He believed that. In a way; he was almost a spirit himself. And if it wasnt for the knowledge that Sam's spirit was imprisisoned with a seal, he'd think that Sam was watching them too.

He dipped to one knee and bowed to her in a chivalrous fashion and kissed her hand.
"It is an honour to escort home such a fair maiden like yourself my dear lady" He winked.

He could only go so far until Saizilia grew really angry. He could feel his insides being crushed. It caused him no pain, but a great deal of discomfort. At least Willow was practically home, as in only a few feet from her front door.

He hugged her close to him, stroking her wavy long hair. "Sueños dulces mi hermosa princesa,"
He kissed the back of her hand romantically; even know he knew he said he was fine with big brother, he couldnt help himself, but at least he would never try to take advantage of Willow in a physical way; he'd never want to harm her in any way.
"Cuide usted mi amor." He walked backwards in the night. "I hope we can meet again soon. Maybe i'll have another suprise for you." He winked kindly. "And get some sleep this time. Try not to worry. About you and Jamie i mean; im sure everything will be ok Willow."

He then disappeared into the shadows and vanished altogether without a trace except for a pure white rose that had stood where he had with a ribbon and a card.
"This rose will never match your beauty princesa, but will bloom for as long at it exists, which in your case mi corazon, will be forever xx With love from your rather strange big brother <3"

Willow heard Sam begin to sing under his breath and she smiled, she really didn't know that he had this more romantic side to him and she really begun to think that it was cute, but she couldn't think that could she? She was taken, Willow loved Jamie but she could think that another guy was cute couldn't she?

"But sometimes I am selfish, sometimes I wish I could think of others a little bit more than I think of myself, sometimes when I'm sad I tend to not help other people who are sad and thats wrong isn't it? No you didn't sound horrible, I know you've never gotten along with your sister."

She smiled softly up at Sam and Willow blushed deeply as Sam knelt down on one knee to kiss her hand, her heart started to flutter and a look of shock crossed her face, this wasn't right, could it be that she was thinking romantically about Sam? No. That wasn't right, Willow bit her lip and tried to shove these thoughts away.

"Thank you Sam, I'll take a dreamless sleep potion today and hopefully that will help. I hope that I'll be able to see you too Sam, I really do, you've made me feel so much better today just by being around me. So, thank you."

Willow kissed his cheek and ran her hand through his hair, a pang ran through her heart as he walked away and as she opened her door and turned back the rose caught her attention, she giggled at the message and shut the door to her house just thinking about how lovely a day she had had.
