Where You're Supposed to Be

[Viax]

Hitaru hoped this Masafumi person wouldn't mind him coming in. He was with Flyte, anyway, and he didn't know of any other place to put her. He glanced down at her as he opened the door, then glanced around quickly. Finally he ended up putting her on the couch, and draping a blanket over her. He wasn't good at medical crap, and he hoped that was all she needed. He paused and looked around, wondering if he should stay, just in case.

[The Black Rose]

Flyte could feel herself be put down, and she instinctively curled up. She could smell Masi, and tried to force her eyes open, but ended up just letting the blanket fall over her. She suddenly felt completely drained, and for the first time in a long time, hungry. Actually, truly, hungry. But she couldn't move, so she decided to wait until the morning to eat something. When was the last time she had eaten something? She couldn't think, but she was pretty sure it was when the doctors had forced her to eat.

Finally Hitaru gave up and sat down on the armchair across from her. He stared at her for a second before looking around. He would leave first thing in the morning, hopefully before Flyte was awake. He doubted that would happen, because he knew how early Flyte was used to waking up. But that was a long time ago, so he wasn't sure about anything any more. He wasn't tired, but he was have spaced out at some point and then fell asleep.

[The Black Rose]

Flyte opened her eyes and the very first thing she noticed was the ball of fur curled up besides her. Groggily she stroked the cat, turning her eyes to the sleeping Hitaru. Falone was perched on the seat, beak buried in his wing as he slept. She finally stood up, moving Sin slightly so she wouldn't bump him, and looked outside. It was close the noon, if she could make a good guess. Slowly she walked into the kitchen and put on some coffee. Her mind turned to her next problem: Mila. She was with Tony, or Timbaku. She'd have to call her brother and see, right after breakfast. Her hunger had faded a little, it always ended up doing so, but it still hurt. So she scraped together as much as she could and started making french toast.

Hitaru woke up to the smell of coffee and french toast. His mouth watered as he stood up and stretched. He glanced at the cat, wondering when she had gotten a feline, and smiled at the raven.
"Flyte, I'm leaving!" He called. He had told himself he would leave in the morning, and he was going to. No use bothering Flyte any more than he had to.

[The Black Rose]

"No, you're staying!" Flyte walked into the living room and shoving a cup of coffee into his hands. Sinistre looked up and growled at Hiro, before jumping off the couch and trotting over to Flyte to rub against her ankles. "Besides, you have to tell me what happened to you. I'll never know if you keep running away like that." She turned and walked back into the kitchen, Sin following at her heels.

Hiro shrugged and followed her much like the cat.
"Nothing much happened. I left because I didn't want to get mixed up with everything, neither did my parents. We lived in Washington for a while and I got mixed up with horses. It reminded me of you, because of Vett." He smiled at her. "And then we moved here. That's jsut about all that happened. You haven't met Josie yet, have you?" He took a sip from the coffee.

[The Black Rose]

"Well, that's boring." Flyte sighed, putting a plate of french toast in front of him. "Josie, huh? Isn't there a horse at the stable named that? I haven't paid much attention to her. I just thought she was another mare belonging to some stranger. I'm guessing I was wrong?" She looked outside. Where was her crow? At that moment Falone came hopping into the kitchen. He bobbed his head angrily, and Flyte picked him up. Atleast she had her raven.

[Viax]

"Yeah, I bought her a while ago." Hiro smiled. "Pretty, isn't she?" He also looked out the window. He opened his mouth to say something, but his phone vibrated. He opened it and glanced at what it said.
"Oh, I'm supposed to meet a friend. Want to come?" He looked at her. He knew she probably didn't have anything else to do anyway, however rude the thought was. She always seemed to have free time.

[The Black Rose]

Flyte hesitated before answering. She wasn't good around new people. Or people in general, unless she knew them well. But she ended up shrugging and nodding.
"Sure, why not?" She sighed, stroking Falone before putting him on the table and placing a piece of toast in front of him to keep him occupied. Maybe she'd find the crow. She was worried about him, but knew it wasn't her place to. He could go wherever he wanted, she wasn't one to keep chains on him.

[Viax]

"Cool." Hiro smiled, finished his coffee, and put his stuff in the sink. "You'll like him. I think you broke his nose once." He glanced at her, wondering if that would make her remember Kamion. Probably not. She's broken a lot of peoples' noses. "It wasn't on purpose." He added. That would narrow it down a bit.

[The Black Rose]

"Great." Flyte muttered under her breath, pulling a large sweatshirt over her head. It took her a second to realize it was Masafumi's, but she didn't take it off. She liked his smell, and even though it made her heart hurt more, she wanted it on. "So he probably won't like me. Does he know it wasn't on purpose?"

[Viax]

"Probably not. But he forgets things easily." Hiro noticed her put on Masi's sweatshirt, but said nothing about it. It made him feel awkward, though. "Come on." He grabbed his own coat and pulled it on to keep out the fall air, then rubbed Falone's head before turning and walking out the door, holding it open for Flyte.
