Kyrin looked slightly shocked at James, and her face displayed his betrayal, "What?" She wasn't really asking the question to be answered, because she knew what he had said. Ky just couldn't believe that James was actually thinking to let Draven drag her back to the house, slung over his shoulder. Hair obscuring her face as she looked to the ground, Kyrin let the door frame go. She wouldn't meet James' eyes and she seemed rather, childlike in that moment. Her postured showed defeat, as her supposed "knight in shining armor" betrayed her.

James shrugged. "I'm really sorry, truly I am, but you'd do a lot better for yourself to go home right now." He crossed his arms in a gesture of finality. Well, at least it stops her from trying to get deeper into my pants than she already has. He figured that by now Kyrin knew that he held himself with as much authority as she could, and sometimes he had to keep her in check. This wasn't, however, by any means to say he trusted Draven. He was definitely following them home, even if it meant giving up his theory of a beautiful boy for the night.

Draven was stunned, he thought the smaller man, James. Would be totally against him and his ‘need’ to take Kyrin home to safety. In the few moments he had to stand and think about his actions, Draven noted that he did this out of a primal love, rather than the simple jealous lust he knew he’d felt earlier. Draven turned to look at James, a glint of respect in his eye; maybe, just maybe Draven may eventually come to like this man. Tonight however, was to soon for the large assassin, “Lady Kyrin”, he said taking a calm and diplomatic tone, “I believe it’s in your best interests to return home”, he took a deep breathe knowing what he was going to say next would put anger back into her, “if you don’t stop fussing, I will knock you out. Please, don’t make me”, the last words he said were actually heartfilled.

Izzy watched the going ons in the bar, while slowly sipping on her drink. Ky's always so much more funny when she drinks the burning water. Her happy watching however was interrupted when the 'witch man' picked up Kyrin and threatened to harm her. In mere seconds, Bella was out, dark eyes flashing as she dashed over to Draven. Not wanting to place a hand on him, because she recognized that he would have the upper hand, she simply said as intimidatingly as she could, "Do it and watch what happens."

Kyrin, however, didn't respond as Draven would have expected from her. Still not raising her head, she muttered, "Just put me down." It didn't sound like an order, more like a plea. Noticing Bella, Kyrin said, "Bella, calm down, it doesn't matter." Kyrin was always a very happy and loud drunk, at least until she stopped drinking and the alcohol had had a chance to sink in. Now that she hadn't had a drink in a little while, she was beginning to feel the after effects. Not the effects like a hang over, not just yet, but she was beginning to feel nauseous. She really just wanted to be put down so she could go throw up somewhere, that and it seemed that she had been hurt. Her eyes didn't hold their normal glint and she still wouldn't look at James.

Draven ignored Bella, thinking it was still Izzy, for he knew nothing of her condition, “I’ll put you down, if you promise to go home with me” Draven spoke before his thoughts fully formed and regretted saying ‘go home with me’ he quickly stumbled over a few words before he gave up trying to fix his mistake. Draven moved Kyrin into a cradle position so he could turn to face everyone and not stick Kyrin’s head out the door.
Looking at Bella, Draven raised an eyebrow and growled at her, hoping to play in Izzy’s fear, once again not knowing about Bella.

Go home with him? Kyrin heard what Draven said loud and clear, even when he tried to cover it up. It repeated in her mind, drowned out only by the headache that was starting to creep up in the back of her head. As Draven cradled her, Kyrin pushed herself out of his hold. Standing on her own feet, she wobbled a little and held onto the door frame again.

Draven instantly reached out to stabilize Kyrin, his love for her was strong, strong enough that he wouldn’t think twice about sacrificing himself for her. Although he would never admit it to anyone, especially himself, he looked at her forlornly and wanted to move her out of the bar, “Kyrin, please”, he pleaded, “You need your rest,” he said thinking of an old herbal method to cure hangovers. His teacher taught it to him, like so many other wonderful skills.
Draven basically grew up with the old china man, learning the ways of old and different styles of martial arts along with certain moves he vowed never to use. Draven was not a killer, not matter how hard he tried to be, death sickened him, it was against his whole moral code to end life.
Draven grasped Kyrin’s shoulder and gave her another pleading look before pushing the door open for her.

James nodded with Draven, placing his hand soothingly against Kyrin's back. Though he usually slept off hangovers, much to the resentment of his drinking companions, he knew what they felt like. And he definitely didn't want Kyrin to have to suffer that any worse than she was already going to. "I'll go home with you if you want me to, Kyrin," he offered softly, smiling to her.

Kyrin looked from Draven, who was holding her upright, to James, whose hand was on her back, and moved away from them both. "I'll go home," She said in a low tone, "Just leave me alone." She seemed rather sad still, but made a move towards the door just the same. The headache she had was growing now and it was making her irratible. She was beginning to feel the effects of the massive hang over that she would have the following morning. Kyrin had gone from a happy drunk while she was drinking, to a sad drunk once the alchohol was taken away from her, and now she was moving into the phase where she just wanted to throw up and make her headache stop. Moving again, on slightly more stable legs, Kyrin exited the bar. She was definately not going to be happy in the morning.

When Draven growled at her, Bella narrowed her eyes, taking it personally. Does he think I'm some animal that's just gonna run with my tail between my legs now? Tempted as she was to lodge a few bullets in Draven's face, Bella backed off at Kyrin's command.
Normally when they went drinking, Bella joined Kyrin in her intoxication. This time though, Bella thought it safer to watch from afar and it was. Izzy may not understand the shameless flirting that Kyrin was prone to when she became drunk but Bella was more than aware of what it meant and, more importantly, what it led to and she still was unable to trust these men. If Kyrin lets herself get knocked up then Izzy's gonna throw a bloody fit, not something I feel like dealing with.
With Kyrin stumbling her way out the bar door, Bella followed close behind, keeping a wary eye on those around her.

Lily followed Kyrin being wary of Bella as she had seen the shift before,"Hey, boss did you want me to get you some coffee or a bloody mary?"She was trying to make up for her spat with Kyrin earlier as she didn't want to be incompetent in this group. Since it was proving to be fun and it kept her on the edge of her seat. Lily while walking beside Kyrin thought of Craig and hoped he would return soon so that she could start her official training.

Coffee sounded really good to Kyrin, at the moment, and she nodded her head to Lily. Noticing Bella come up near her, Kyrin used the girl as a sort of support as she wandered down the street. Kyrin, while being a little more stable, would have in no way, made it home by herself. Doing her best to keep the alchohol in her stomach, Kyrin wished she hadn't eaten earlier that day. Its all gonna come back out.. Kyrin thought. She knew that once she reached the mansion, she would be confined to the bathroom for an hour or so. It was not something that she looked forward to, but it came with getting drunk so she had learned to deal with it.

Lily ran ahead and entered the mansion to make Kyrin some coffee. She took about five minutes to figure out where everythng was and then about another five to get everything arranged. Lily but her back in to grounding fresh coffee beans and then pouring them in to a strainer to be boiled in the fresh water. That took about five minutes to reach boiling during which Lily had dashed back outside to retrieve her cloth bag. Placing it on the kitchen table she dug around until she found what she was looking for. The steam came screaming out of the coffee pot and she jumped to get the thing off the heat. Lily danced for bit trying to keep her hands from getting burned off until she grabbed the mitt she had forgotten to put on. Placing the coffee pot on the stove once again she then went to get her loot from the bag and began washing them. She set them up and made sure every one of them was in order. Then taking the coffee pot and placing it on the tray to Lily went to pour the creamer into the cream bowl and the sugar into the sugar bowl. Lily finally made sure had enough for everyone who had drunk to have at least a cup if not two cups of coffee. She went back to the stove and boiled a second pot of coffee just in case the first wasn't enough then kept the pot on the back burner to stay hot. Taking her loot and coffee in hand she passed into the main corridor just in front of the entrance to await everyone's arrival. Her loot being a finely handcrafted tea set for six to eight people. Lily was quite proud of her endeavor and waited to see if it would pay off and put her to rights with Kyrin and the others.

James waited to see if Kyrin would be joining him before starting off home on his own. He really didn't trust Draven alone with Kyrin, even though he really had no interest in her, other than as a close friend. He did find it amusing, however, that people felt otherwise. Except perhaps in the case of Nori, he was actually rather fond of that boy, and he didn't want Nori to get the wrong idea about he and Kyrin.
