Riad reamined standing in the room a moment, playing with the beads on one of his bracelets. After a moment, he straightened and stalked out the door, following after Carter. Something within his instincts told him to go, so he went.

"I don't recall ever complaining about being alone"
"You don't have to," Frost replied, voice gentle. "It's written on your face."
"And as for the guys it was bound to happen with someone sooner or later. Things aren't the same as they were back then. So what if I was dead or dying? And if you worry so much go downstairs and get me something to drink."
His expression grew confused as he stood and walked over. "You have a perfectly good bottle of scotch right here." He picked it up and handed it to her.

Regaining consciousness for a moment, Carter coughs weakly and tries to push himself to his feet, crashing into a light pole when he starts to loose his balance, groans, barely standing, vision unreliable

"You don't have to,It's written on your face."
Cerria froze eyes narrowing at the ground. "Why are you doing this Abel? Why do you care so much?"
"You have a perfectly good bottle of scotch right here."
She lifted her eyes to stare at the bottle a moment before taking it. Briskly she opened the bottle and took a small drink from it before handing it back to him. I need to get the blade out." says finally moving off the bed. She started to the bathroom with a slight misstep to get a cloth, stumbling to the side. Until she had moved you would have never been able to see that the blade was protruding slightly from her lower back.

Riad walked down the street, finding Carter, and he called out. "Wait." What was he doing? The man was just a regular at the bar, wasn't he?
No. There was something else about him. But then, something went off in the back of Riad's mind, and he stopped. What was the point? He was human, and he was a demon, immortal. His violet gaze trailed to the ground. He thought about what would happen if the man found out. Oh gods, what was he thinking? He didn't even have a name!

"Why are you doing this Abel? Why do you care so much?"
"Because sometimes what we see isn't what is," he answered. "It's actually the complete opposite."
"I need to get the blade out."
Frost eyes the wound, setting the bottle on the table. "Will you let me help?"

"Wait."
Hearing a voice behind him Carter pauses the frowns when he recognizes it, thinking. Sighing, he stumbles his way towards him, almost making it before he starts to fall "Bartender." he slurs, stupid grin on his face as he tumbles into him

"Because sometimes what we see isn't what is,It's actually the complete opposite."
Cerria looked at him a moment eyes widened. "And what does that mean?"
"Will you let me help?"
Letting out a sigh she nods in resignation. "Do as you wish." She comes back out of the bathroom a few seconds later with supplies. She turns away before stripping of her shirt and bra with a hiss. Silently she pulls the sheet up to her chest, then sits on the bed.

"Bartender."
Riad looked up, catching his balance as Carter slumped into him, offering an unsure smile as he toiled with himself. "I don't think walking home would be the best idea for you at this point in time," he responded, hands resting on Carter's shoulders.

"And what does that mean?"
"It means that this cold or chilled appearance of yours isn't you, but only a cover up," he replied. "And I want to find out more." His smile, though, revealed another meaning, but he didn't continue.
"Do as you wish."
Frost stepped over to the bed and sat behind her, surveying the wound. He moved his fingers, a frosty air swirling around them before he made a small ice cube. "I'm going to numb it before I pull it out."

"I don't think walking home would be the best idea for you at this point in time,"
Leaning up towards him, Carter smiles when his lips almost brush Riad's before he frowns at his words and pulls back, mouth twisting into a small pout "Why? It's only.... uh..." his brows furrow "We aren't together, so why does it matter what I do?"

"It means that this cold or chilled appearance of yours isn't you, but only a cover up, And I want to find out more."
"So what if it is or isn't? There's not much to know about me so it's pointless to try." She turned to look over her right shoulder at him, right hand holding the sheet up, as her left pushed her hair back.
"I'm going to numb it before I pull it out."
Cerria exhaled before nodding. "That would be best. Now hand me that bottle. "

"Why? It's only.... uh... We aren't together, so why does it matter what I do?"
"You're drunk, and as the bartender of a well known bar in town, know for my services, your safety is my responsibility," he answered with a straight face, violet eyes searching Carter's face. "And here lately, the streets haven't been too safe with a lunatic running about."

"So what if it is or isn't? There's not much to know about me so it's pointless to try."
"Nothing's pointless," he replied shortly, pressing the ice against the wound.
"That would be best. Now hand me that bottle. "
With his free hand, Frost passed her the bottle without another word.

"My safety isn't your responsibility, I'm just a customer." Carter mutters, stepping away from him, laughing bitterly as he sways, blue eyes filling with clouded pain and loss, small snort "Who cares? I'm just going home. I have a knife."

"Nothing's pointless,"
Cerria hissed soflty at the contact, tensing immediately away from him. She quickly grabbed the bottle and took another drink. "Damn that smarts."

"My safety isn't your responsibility, I'm just a customer. Who cares? I'm just going home. I have a knife."
His jaw worked a moment before he spoke again, looking away. "I care. And a knife," Riad looked back at him, for once appearing serious, "isn't going to protect you against who is running around. It's just a pocket knife, isn't it?"

"Damn that smarts."
"It's going to," Frost murmured, waiting a few moments before he let the ice dissipate and gingerly, but quickly, pulled the knife out to avoid any damage elsewhere.

"I care. And a knife, isn't going to protect you against who is running around. It's just a pocket knife, isn't it?"
"Why do you care? You don't even know me." Carter mutters before snorting "As if. A pocket knife." Rolling his eyes, he sighs before looping an arm around Riad's neck, switching personalities due to alcohol, out of it, big grin "Marry me."

"It's going to,"
"Doesn't mean I have to like it." Grunts in reply. Feeling the ice move she worked on relaxing her muscles. It was only a second before he yanked it out. She cringed as it slid out and she leaned into him slightly. "How bad? "
