Guan looked between Tomo and Cass for a moment and then followed Cerri into the kitchen.

Cerri had waved back to Tomo, then continued her walk. On getting to the other room, she put on tea for Guan, then stood before the stove, pondering. "What do I want to eat? Mac and cheese, or spaghetti?" she asked aloud as Guan entered the kitchen after her.

"I uh.." she started, foot on the first wooden stair. "I had to go to the.. medical-practitioner." Cass said. Her entire sentence had gotten quieter and quieter, but the last part was very-very fast. Her eyes tested Tomo, and she kept her hands on her stomach.

"I don't know," Guan said, slipping his arms around her from behind. "What do you want?"

"Why didn't you tell me something was wrong!?" Tomo blurted, folding his ears back, "How the hell are you supposed to get help when you won't even tell your own boyfriend when something's wrong?" He scowled. Ukaia used to do the same thing when she first came, "Is it like some neko code to hide all of your problems until it's almost too late to fix them?" He looked over to the bar, "I was worried about you last night!"

"Drowning yourself in alcohol is no way to show how much you care or worry. And it'd most definitely not something a father would do!" Cass exclaimed, practically exploding at him. He had no right to compare her to Ukaia. And what was with him, being stereotypical? Maybe she should just insult human rejects from society! "And who said you were my boyfriend? It's not like you'd have the balls to ask me straight forward!" she continued to yell, eyes furious now. God! He could be so damn childish sometimes!

"Mm... I dunno. The first requires less prep time." Cerri murmured, shutting her eye and leaning back against him. "Will you really get me one of those eyes you mentioned?" she asked suddenly, sounding rather amused and touched at the same time.

"You're right. I... I shouldn'tve drank if I were worried about you." Tomo was almost ready to talk things out when he heard her second comment, "Excuse me?" He gaped, resting a hand to his chest. "I'm sorry! I guess I was mistaken. Maybe the day I asked you to be my girl friend was a bit of a clue. I should've known that didn't go both ways!"

"If you really want one," Guan said, kissing Cerri's neck. "Though I might need your help getting to one of the creatures."

"Well I certainly wouldn't have known you were serious by your actions! What are you?!" Cass paused, fuming still. " God.. It's like you don't even act like you're glad I'm around sometimes! Or, maybe it's that you're just.." she clenched her fists, and could barely stand to glare at him without flaring up. "It's like when other people are around.. You don't even care I'm here! You dont' care what goes on! You're always the same!"

Cerri gave a soft sigh, happy, then shook her head, smiling. "Nah. I don't really need one. But... I like knowing that you would." she admitted softly, giving a bit of a chuckle. Carefully, she turned in his arms and kissed him softly, then pulled back to start her food.

"Well if you change your mind," Guan said, kissing Cerri once more before stepping out to the bar.

Cerri smiled and shook her head, then hummed softly as she began to cook.

Tomo wasn't good at being mad and it showed in his hesitating. "Of course I didn't change. I'm not schizophrenic or anything." He sighed, "I own a bar, Cassanova. I have a reputation. I have a daughter! I can't very well be hanging on you every second of my day." He shuddered, "And what gives you the right to tell me what I do and don't care about?"

Guan sat quietly at the bar, secretly reviewing how he would actually go about retrieving such an eye.
