"We'll bring the food upstairs," Rosalie said with a smile. "And we'll have two glasses of water up there." She put hand against his face momentarily and kissed him gently on the cheek.
Kaori nodded slightly. "Well it was fun but too stressful for me," she admitted. She had almost cracked there and was now feel greatly weighed down by everything, remember what it had been like to be pregnant and then having it die... inside of you.

Mitch nodded tiredly and went inside with her, he pretty much just went to the kitchen, grabbed a sleeve of crackers, two glasses of water, and headed upstairs. During his walking he'd kept stumbling which brought an Alarm in Andy's head, to blast loudly. When he saw his son stumble he remembered Kyoya, SCD, this scared him but he ignored it and consoled Kaori. "Things will get better." he whispered.
Mitch rested the food and drinks on the bedside table before takeing all the papers off the bed and cleaning the bed a bit. Everything was just how he left it, cream colored and nice/messy. He rested into bed and closed his eyes, he felt freezing and his bones hurt. The bed felt too hard. He sighed and squirmed while waiting for Rosalie, "You coming?" he said trying to sound happy.

Rosalie went in after him, watching him and had a concern for his stumbling. She had a feeling he was probably pretty weak at the moment and just needed a lot of encouragement and some help.
She almost ran when she heard him calling. She sat down next to and then began to fuss over making sure he was warm. "Eat some of the crackers and then we can rest for a while. I'll eat as many as you do."

The young man smiled slightly and rested a bit, he put his heating blanket on the highest notch and snuggled into the blankets looking for warmth and a comfortable position. He started sipping the water and simply heald one cracker hopeing to stall having to eat it. After a few seconds he put the water down and stared at the cracker, 'don't eat it swine' he whimpered and closed his eyes, took a deep breath and ate it, swallowed, and looked ready to go to the bathroom any minute to get it out of his system. His mocha eyes looked to Rosalie as if wanting her to say something, anything, to make it better.

Rosalie took a cracker too and ate it after he did and smiled at him. "You know," she said. "You are a very handsome young man and you always have been." She kissed him on the cheek again and snuggled up next to him.

Mitch blushed slightly, "I never thought I was...I mean, I used to think I wasn't that bad looking but then...I met you and wanted to look better. But the most that happened was that I felt ugly compared to you and your friends and well...most everyone I know. Then you poked fun just like my family at me and I didnt think I was that fat but apparently I was and I hate myself for it because I can't look good enouph and I want to. I thought I looked fine but I don't," he said trying to get everything out though it was pretty much killing anymore spirit he had left in him, "why do I have to look this way and be this way? I don't like it. I'm not at the right weight yet and I still look horrible," he squeeked and went undernieth the covers via head under to, Mitch was now hideing under the heating blanket and trying not to cry though he desparetly wanted to.

Rosalie removed the covers he brushed some hair away from his face. She was studying his face at the moment and could tell something was going on in his head. "Trust me," Rosalie said. "You have a very false perception of yourself. Half the girls on that plane this summer were checking you out and one actually attempted to flirt with you." She kissed him on the cheek again. "You don't need to lose weight, you need to gain weight. We can go to the gym once you feel better and get you in shape. I need to get in shape anyways since it always makes me feel better. Plus it makes my a** look better too."

The teacher laughed softly but he looked sad again, "I already go to the gym. It doesn't work, nothing does. If I gain weight I'll be ugly then and not good enouph."he said staring up at her with big doe eyes, Mitch felt the pain in his bones getting worse by the minute and he still felt cold. His eyes closed and his pale face pressed into his pillow. "Why would anyone flirt with me? And in shape as in what?" his voice went up an octive or two because he was starting to panic and was confused. He didn't understand. When he looked in the mirror it was like seeing some horribly deformed monster, he hated everything about himself. Did other people see something else when they looked at him? 'By We can go to the gym once you feel better and get you in shape.' did Rosalie mean that he did need to lose weight but was contradicting her last words when she said he needed to gain weight. "I don't understand..."he whispered softly.

"In shape doesn't mean losing weight. It builds muscle mass and also helps your overall general health," she said gently. "You look better when you're healthy and when you're like this you look a bit weak and unable to carry yourself. Now would you want to look like a fragile child or a strong man?"

"I'm not either! I look in the mirror I don't see what you apparently see! I see a monster! I see some hidious being! I see a murderer! I see a fat, disgusting, slob! I hate what I see so why is it you don't? Why don't you see what I do? Why can't I see what you do? I want to be a man, not half of one. I'm no child, I'm not fragile either. I can be strong...I want to be..." he had pretty much yelled but started breathing heavily and had to relax. He didn't move or speak on account of his hastened breath, after a while Mitch's mouth moved, "...what do I do? I want to see what you see. Be what you think I need to be. But I don't think I can change and I am just..."he breathed out frustratedly and went a little limp, "I can't do this." he started crying, "not on my own, not without help. But I don't know how to take the help, I don't know how or what to do Rosalie. What do I do?"he bicupped(happens when your crying and you take a deep, shuddery, breath while crying.) "I don't know..." he was just laying there crying then and cringing from the physical and mental pain he was feeling. It was hard to take.

Rosalie sat up slightly so that she could hold him more easily. She caressed his cheek slightly and moved the hair out of his face. She kept making a soft shushing sound to help him calm down. "You need to build your confidence," she said gently. "I know it's hard, I went through it... I'll be here every step of the way too." She kissed him gently on the cheek again, wiping away every tear she could. "When I see you... I see an angel that took me away from every evil that I could possibly meet. I see a kind gentleman that may just be a bit confused. I see a handsome man, not a beast, but a man who wants to devote his time to caring for people whether he knows it or not."

Mitch just nodded and listened to her while crying into her arms. He didn't like crying, it made him dizzy, dehydrated, tired, and it felt like he was about to have a seizure. His mocha blue eyes opened and he looked up to Rosalie like an inocent child who'd thought they had done wrong. In an instant however, the pale and slightly boney face burried into the warmth of Rosalie and tried to calm down.
After a short while he had stopped shakeing and there were no sounds coming from him aside the shallow breathing, he was falling asleep. Mitch knew he should probably eat a couple more crackers and sip some more water but he couldn't bring himself to leave Rosalie's embrace. So it just ended with him falling asleep on her.

Rosalie enjoyed this moment as she cuddled closer to him. She could smell him and he smelled almost exactly like the teddy bear she had next to her. She snuck another cracker now that she was relaxed and ate.
As he slept she ran her fingers through his hair until she was sleepy enough to actually fall asleep.

-time skip to one week later-
Rosalie had been given time off work (as expected) to gain back the weight she had lost. She looked tired for the most part and was reading a book in the kitchen of the Haru house. No one else was down there with her as she sipped her water.
Kaori had gone back to the house she had been visiting to get back to her normal level of stress and was now about to come home again. She still wasn't sure if she could manage living at home alone.
Delilah was at the hospital assisting David with his walking and he seemed to be improving still. Some issues had come up earlier that had prevented him from recovering fast enough and they were just being dealt with. David was watching Lucy as he walked though, loving the fact that he was in here but taunting her slightly at the same time.
