[RL - @ Cuddy's to see Haruhi]

[the_zackman]

*hello, Cuddy's house! arrived a little later than he'd hoped, but knocks on the door anyway. is wearing a hooded sweatshirt and jeans, hands in his pockets, looking around at all the Christmas decorations on the street. the mako glow of his eyes is a little more evident in the dim, snow-lit evening*

Still sleeping in here?

[running out the door as her pager goes off again]

Yes. Bye!

....

[rolls back over to face the window and pulls the cloth off once more]

[the_zackman]

[goes over to sit on the bed next to her]

Hey.

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[scoots a bit closer to him]


...Hey.

[the_zackman]

[hesitates, then gently scuffs her hair like he often did during the virus]

Feeling a bit better?

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[turns to look at him, shivering]

...'s Cold.

[the_zackman]

You want another blanket? [look around, there's a shawl on the chair over there]

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[rolls all the way over so she's facing him and nods]

[the_zackman]

[goes and gets it and drapes it on top of the blankets; it's all fuzzy, so you should be warming up more soon]

Do you want something to drink, too?

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[shakes her head and curls up next to him, seeking his body heat]

[the_zackman]

[sits back down next to her and is quiet, not quite sure what to say]

Hey . . . I'm sorry for what I said to you earlier. After the virus.

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[rests her head on his thigh]

It doesn't matter anymore.

[the_zackman]

[blinks, this is a little awkward now that he knows they aren't related. still, brushes her bangs away from her forehead]

You sure?

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[doesn't seem to mind and buries her face in his jeans]

Yeah.

[the_zackman]

[smiles a little bit] Good. I'm glad. [chafes her shoulder through the blankets] So, anybody else coming to visit you aside from me and Roxas?

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[might be starting to get a little sleepy.]

Axel is coming....and Kyon.

[the_zackman]

Try not to get into any fights with Axel, okay? And that's good. Kyon's been really worried about you.

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

I won't. Not mad at him 'nymore.

...He has?

[the_zackman]

You couldn't tell? He's been commenting on all your journal entries.

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

I want to see him.

[the_zackman]

Then why'd you tell him to leave you alone?

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

I wanted to be alone then.

[the_zackman]

Why? [concerned look]

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

....[twists her fingers in the fabric of his pants]

I'm used to dealing with stuff alone.
