December 5th, Chicago. Base.

He'd stood up when it sounded like Elek was done and paused when he continued. Amante nodded and shuffled out of the room and made his way back to the little room in the hospital...

December 6th, Chicago. Base.

Excited that he understood it, she lay both hands with his, holding it. She couldn't wait to start her therapy so they could do it together and, maybe one day, she could walk beside him instead of having him push her around everywhere. He was permanently etched into her life plan but, as he tensed and grew weary... did he not feel the same way?

He couldn't be there? Why not? It looked like he was going to leave- no! But then he came down, so close, and touched at her face. Staring up into his eyes as he stared back it was... strange. He moved off of her, leaving her with a chilled feeling. Realizing he was leaving the room, she reached out to him but... he was gone.

Her body weighed down on the pillows and the bed as this strange feeling came over her. Why did she feel like she just lost her best friend? Why did it feel like he just.. left her here, forever?



She heard the name of the creature and glanced over at him, quirking a brow more at his ensemble than his words, "Sure..." Eve knew something was off but led him back to her house. normally, she wouldn't let anyone inside but it was fairly clean and she didn't want to waste the energy being nitpicky. Once they were both in the door, she shut it and locked it up. "Before you start asking me stupid questions, what's with the glasses? First of all, you're blind. Secondly, there's hardly any fucking sun down here. Third? you're fucking blind."
