"Nothing to be sorry about. Did you sleep okay?"
Noticing the red in Riad's cheeks, Carter's eyes widen a moment before trailing him as he moves "Uh... Yes. Yes." he replies, clearing his throat as he looks away
"If you need a change of clothes, there's extras in the closet. I'm just not sure if they'll fit."
Shaking his head, he inhales slowly, eyes closing "I think I'm good man. After all, if I borrow your clothes, won't that entitle that I'd have to come back here? I'm pretty sure you won't want that." he murmurs, halfhearted laugh along with a smile, rubs his head "I should probably get going."

"Why is it every time I help someone they think I'm a perv?"
Cerria leaned against the door breathing heavily. After a few minutes, she puts a hand on her face, rubbing it exhaustively. Opening her fingers she peered through the cracks at the wall with a sad expression. She didn't know why she got mad at him, it wasn't like she was shy about her body or anything. But still, she hasn't expected to wake up and him still be there.

"I think I'm good man. After all, if I borrow your clothes, won't that entitle that I'd have to come back here? I'm pretty sure you won't want that."
Riad stopped within the doorway of the bathroom, turning to look at Carter with a confused expression before something skittered across his features.
"I should probably get going."
He smiled through the uncertainty. "No no, having you here was a breath of fresh air." He gestured towards the front door. "I'm stuck with some shady people all of the time, but you," he looked Carter over before meeting his gaze, gaining a bit of confidence he didn't know he had, "you're rather cute compared to them."
A heartbeat later, it dawns on him what he just said, and his cheeks grow more red as he rubs his neck. "I-I mean, I really like you, uh, having you around, I mean." Riad fumbled with words. "if you'd like to stay, you can..." His voice trailed, violet eyes moving to meet Carter's blues hesitantly. He hoped he hadn't just driven him away.

Frost stepped over to the window, footsteps silent, and leaning against the windowsill, he looked back towards the bathroom. Part of him wanted to stay, but the more logical part told him to go, to give her space and time. But what if that was the wrong choice?
He swore quietly and jerked the window open. She's not yours, he reminded himself. You know it couldn't ever be.
Slipping through the window, Frost leapt towards the ground, the before he struck, he vanished into a puff of frosty air.

"No no, having you here was a breath of fresh air. I'm stuck with some shady people all of the time, but you, you're rather cute compared to them."
Carter opens his mouth and starts to object to his words before but slowly closes, blue eyes on his face as he talks, listening, ears turning red.
"I-I mean, I really like you, uh, having you around, I mean."
"Oh yea?" He murmurs, head tilting to the left
"if you'd like to stay, you can..."
Gaze wavering when Riad's voice fades, his teeth snag his ring gently a moment before he shrugs his feelings away, tiny forced smile, unsure of things "I'd like to stay. And. You're more than cute." he states quietly, sitting on the bed and flopping back, lost in his thoughts

Cerria stayed where she was a few more minutes, sulking about what happened. Letting out yet another frustrated breath she pursed her lips and stood. Managing to glance in the mirror, she checked to make sure that her appearance was flawless. Pursing her lips she strained to imagine how she looked centuries ago. Part of her wanted to show him, and yet she refused to. He was in a sense the only one that didn't royally annoy her, but she wasn't ready to go down that road again. Making a decision she walked out. "Abel I-" the words we're lost on her lips as it dawned on her that she was alone. Sensing the temperature change, she knew that it hadn't been too long. Quickly slipping on her shirt, her feet flew to the window to allow her to look over. Seeing nothing she leaned back some, skimming a finger over the will.
"I wish I knew how to quit you." Signing she looked out holding her arms. Maybe she was more ready than she wanted to admit. Her mind wandered to where he may have gone. Straightening she reached out to close the window. Good, maybe she would get some peace in her life.

"I'd like to stay. And. You're more than cute."
Riad looked at him, face reddened, and a heartbeat later he turned towards the bathroom. "I'll be out in just a second." He stepped inside and closed the door, getting dressed, pausing to look at himself in the mirror. What was he digging himself into?
Quietly, he stepped out, jeans low strung as he started buttoning his shirt. "Hungry?" He asked softly, still recovering after his outburst.

Frost reappeared in the bar, scowling as he battled himself and his emotions. His eyes flicked to the empty area, and after a moment, he grew fed up with waiting, and fed up with himself, and vanished again in a puff of frost.

"I'll be out in just a second."
"Hungry?"
Pulled out of his thoughts by the second time Riad speaks, Carter shakes his head and sits up with a wince, hand flying to his head, blue eyes squinted in the corners as he looks over "Uhm. Sure. Yea."

Cerria moved to sit on the bed again, this time a little numb from the previous events. What on earth was she supposed to do now? Never had she been unsure about her actions, nor had she given it thought during the length of which she did it. Why now? Why him? Even her first love hadn't caused her so much worry and confusion. Maybe she was just getting sloppy at reigning her emotions in and locking them up. Well it doesn't matter now. Its done. She shook her head to agree with herself. Now all she had to do was get it together and Move. Not a minute later she did exactly that, and made her way downstairs-ignoring the wound that was protesting with the movements.

"Uhm. Sure. Yea."
Riad nodded and stepped out, rolling down his collar. "Do you want something for the hangover?" he called from the kitchen, rolling up his sleeves. He began pulling out a pan and some basic ingredients, washing his hands momentarily.

"Do you want something for the hangover?"
"Yes please." Carter replies quietly, steps silent as he gets up and changes before following. Frowning a little at how loose the clothes he borrowed are on them, he sighs then shrugs it off, walks up behind Riad, arms slipping around his waist loosely, hesitant "Thanks for the clothes." he murmurs near his shoulder before he releases him and sinks into a chair at the table, head resting in the palm of his left hand

"Yes please."
Riad nodded and began making a morning drink with an egg, one that was famous for curing hangovers. He made it and sat it on the table, moving back to the counter and began making a southwestern breakfast potato casserole dish. He was washing the potatoes and the peppers as Carter stepped out.
Feeling arms around his waist, he paused, both surprised, yet comforted, by the gesture. "Thanks for the clothes." Riad turned and looked at Carter, smiling gently at the sight of him.
"I hope they're at least comfortable."

"I hope they're at least comfortable."
"They are, I assure you." Carter murmurs with a smile, taking a sip of the drink set before him and making a face before he downs it, setting the glass down once finished. Taking a bite of the egg, he chews it slowly, eyes clouding along with his thoughts, starting to drift back in his memories again, happiness starting to fade

"They are, I assure you."
Riad smiled and continued fixing breakfast. After about twenty minutes, he carried two plates of hot food to the table, setting one down in front of Carter as he walked to the other seat. "I hope it all tastes okay-- I only cook for myself, so I never know if it's really good."
He sat and started to eat, the smell of the food strong and delicious.

"I hope it all tastes okay-- I only cook for myself, so I never know if it's really good."
Jerking in surprise when a plate is set in front of him, he opens his mouth then closes it as Riad starts to speak, waits till he's done, trying not to rush ahead "I'm sure it'll taste fine, it smells awesome. Though, why don't you ever invite anyone over?" he murmurs before taking a bite, chewing quickly once it hits his tongue

"Wind it is,"
Smirking lightly at the brush of a kiss, Shade closes her eyes, only opening them when the wind seems to still. Glancing around the bar, her eyes brighten when she sees no one else in there, looks up at him, smiling darkly as she slides up to sit on the counter across from the drinks "Make me a drink love? I'll dance for you."

"I'm sure it'll taste fine, it smells awesome. Though, why don't you ever invite anyone over?"
Riad shrugged lightly. "I'm too different, I guess," he murmured, looking out the window. "Some people don't like--" His smiled faded and his brows drew together, head turning towards the door. Frowning, he stood. "Excuse me a moment," he murmured, stalking towards the door.

"Make me a drink love? I'll dance for you."
Zlo chuckled and moved behind the bar, pulling out two shot glasses and setting them down. He then looked over the drinks available. "Any special requests?"
"Yeah, a request for you to knock and let me know ahead of time that you're coming," said Riad, who stepped outside his door, glaring at Zlo.
His gaze flicked lazily over to his friend, grinning as he pulled out the vodka and pour himself a straight shot. "Oh, is that someone else I smell from inside that apartment?"
"Zlo," Riad's tone was slightly sharp, though he retained his politeness. Seeing Shade, he nodded. "Belladonna."
