"Nice to meet you Riad. Now. Shall I take you home? Or we could go to your place? I'm not sure what's closer."
Riad looked around, then gestured towards the bar. "Well, I live in the back there... So it's honestly where you would want to go."

"Oh yes of course. My apologies, you did tell me...after Did you see the show?"
His expression immediately turned serious and stern, jaw setting as something that resembled anger flitted across his gaze, though it vanished. "I don't know what you're talking about." Of course, he wanted to growl, but he had rather not think about it.
"Yeah well don't let it go to your head."
Frost grunted as he leaned over her, rubbing the numbing cream around the cut before he got to work, hands chilly and careful.

"Well, I live in the back there... So it's honestly where you would want to go."
"I..." Carter hesitates a moment, thinking, eyes wavering "I don't want to go home." he murmurs finally, voice shaky "I don't want to see it. I'm tired of seeing it, being trapped there."

"I don't know what you're talking about."
Cerria watched him from the mirror across the room vaguely. Her gaze adverted, mixed emotions in her eyes. She was glad that he couldn't see her, nor could she see herself. No one had to tell her what lied behind her eyes. Because he hadn't said anything about it she was grateful, but at the same time- she wished she hadn't seen it.
Feeling his hand on her skin she lay her head down, cheek resting against her arm by it. Content with how steady his hands were, she closed her eyes- relaxing inch by inch.

"I...I don't want to go home.I don't want to see it. I'm tired of seeing it, being trapped there."
Riad's lavender gaze snapped to him, brows furrowing slightly, but if he wanted to know more, he didn't show it. Instead, he smiled gently and nodded towards the bar. "Come on, then. My place it is."

Frost worked quietly, his childish and joking manner gone, though slowly it was returning and relaxing his expression. But even as it did so, a deep line remained between his brows as he worked, blue eyes bright with mixed emotions though covered enough to hide the truth.
Once he finished with the stitches, he leaned back and gathered the supplies back into the kit, placing it back under the nightstand. "You're good to go."

"Come on, then. My place it is."
Avoiding the gaze he feels on him, Carter turns his head to look down the street uncomfortably before sighing in silent relief at his words, leans into him, eyes starting to droop ever so slightly "Thank you." he murmurs quietly, relaxing at his smile

Cerria started to doze as he continued. Even if it was stitches, just the way he was doing it was soothing. Although she supposed it was due to the temperature of his hands.
"You're good to go."
"Hmmm?"Cerria tilted her head more and cracked an eye, lazily looking up at him. "Thanks." Her eye trailed down to her arms and legs before it closed. She would worry about her other wounds later.

"Thank you."
Riad smiled gently and started back towards the bar, an arm around Carter's waist to keep him up. He walked slowly, still mulling over everything in his head. Had what happened happened? He was afraid that whenever Carter sobered up that it would all fade away.
He stepped inside the bar, seeing a couple of his early morning risers (who were three hours ahead of sunrise) gathered at the bar. However, they all knew the drills, and none questioned him as he led Carter to the door behind the counter. Instead, they nodded hello and kept to themselves.
"In we go," he murmured as he stepped inside the room, it opening up to a small open floor plan with a bedroom past the living room.

"Thanks."
Frost gave a small smile, watching as she started to doze off. Quietly he stood, grabbing a blanket and pulled in over her, hand resting on her shoulder a moment. Something flickered across his gaze, then he stepped back and turned towards the window.
How could he tell her?

Following him into the bar, Carter pauses at the sigh of a few people then proceeds to pull his hood up silently, hiding his face as he passes with Riad
"In we go,"
Stepping in, he looks around, blue eyes studying everything, small half grin that fades, tired "Nice place you have here. Homey."

Cerria shifted under the blanket to get comfortable. Having a lingering tingle from the contact of his hand and her shoulder she opened her eyes. Half asleep she looked at him, back now to her. Instinctively she reached out for a piece of clothing and latched on.

"Nice place you have here. Homey."
Riad smiled and gestured towards the couch and the bedroom. "I don't know where you would prefer to sleep." He then moved towards the kitchen. "Or if you'reyoungry, I Ian fix something"

Frost froze as he felt the movement, turning slightly to look at Cerria over his shoulder, iceberg eyes studying. He remained still a moment, waiting, before he responded.
"Cerria?"

"I don't know where you would prefer to sleep. Or if you're hungry, I Ian fix something"
His eyes drift towards the couch at the gesture, tenses a moment, eyes wavering before he looks away "I'll take the floor, thanks. And I'm not hungry, not really. Just.. Tired. Is there a blanket I can borrow?" he murmurs quietly, pulling away from him

"Cerria?"
She looked up to meet his eyes, vision getting lost in the color of his. Her gaze was pleading...almost. "You must be tired. So I'll let you stay this one time." She added the last part quickly, tone changing. Good-she didn't want to act like she needed him. Not that she was scared of something happening. Grunting she turned her head letting go of the cloth, as much as she was fighting not to.

"I'll take the floor, thanks. And I'm not hungry, not really. Just.. Tired. Is there a blanket I can borrow?"
Riad frowned slightly, pouring himself a glass of water. "No, I insist-- at least be comfortable while you're here." He paused, gauging and looked down. "I'd feel awful making you sleep in the floor." Leaning against the counter, his hand rubbed the back of his neck. "It's not right."

"You must be tired. So I'll let you stay this one time."
His eyes continued to study, though after a few heartbeats, he sat down on the bed beside of her, hands clasping together in his lap, eyes remaining on her. Frost offered a small smile. "I'll stay then," he said quietly.

At his words, Carter frowns lightly, looking at him before sighing "Alright. I'll sleep in your bed then. But only if you do the same. I'm not making you sleep on the couch. Deal?"

"I'll stay then," .
Cerria exhaled before closing her eye again. Well no use worrying about it now, she couldn't take back the offer. Besides she felt better somewhat with another presence near. Although she hadn't necessarily meant that he had to stay on the floor. Features relaxing she let her hand drop beside him, limp fingers brushing his shoulder as she fell asleep. If he moved well then that would be his choice.
