Von refused to cry at least about this in front of Kenny. She could tell that he wasn't happy she'd kissed Marc, but she felt it was necessary. She did care for him and it was the only way she thought she could show him.
As she and Kenny walked she held him close to her side. " You really shouldn't have done that. You just got out of detention! And so help me if you leave me alone again." She tried to make her tone light but she kept seeing Marc's face.
Anya watched as Von and Kenny walked off holding each other. She knew she shouldn't have followed Marc and Kenny but something nagged at her until she followed. She didn't go up to the tower but had paced around the base. Hearing what Von had said she gasped and ran up the stairs. Seeing one door slightly open she called out. "Marc? I'm sorry for following..." At this point she'd pushed the door open and saw the damage. " Oh my goodness!"
She raced over and took his chin and tilted his head trying to figure out how bad his injuries really were. After a moment she stepped back. " I think I can fix your nose and the cuts and bruises should heal in a day or so." Sometimes she was thankful her mother was a nurse, and showed Anya many helpful things. She pulled out her wand and circled it around his nose before touching it softly "Episkey."
She knew she was probably crossing a lot of lines but she couldn't just let him sit there in pain. She then pulled out a hankie. " Here, if you want it. It's never been used."

Marc was fingering his nose. Trying very hard not to groan in pain. He really needed to get it set before it contemplated healing crooked. His face hurt more than he could describe and he was sure kenny had bruised his ribs. He heard Anya and frowned. He sat up straighter and scrubbed the heel of his hand across his eyes.
When he saw her he jumped and then grimaced. "Whit er ye daein' haur Anya..." He was too hurt to keep up his english. "Ye shooldnae hae followed me."
His eyes widened as she took his face. "Anya dornt..." And then she was gone. And then there was enough pain that the edges of his vision went black and he felt tears slip from his eyes. "Jobby! 'At hurt"
He eyed her a moment and shook his head. "Jist gang awa'... aam nae in th' mood tae be entertainin' reit noo" He shifted and tried to push himself up straighter.
Kennedy stopped them half way down the hall and turned to look at Von. "I know... but this was personal and marc wont rat me out... While i don't like him... he knows right and wrong very well." Kennedy tried to offer a sad grin. "Its gonna be ok Vonali..."He reached out and tucked a lank of her hair behind her ear. "Trust me..."

Vonali blushed as he tucked her hair back. "I'll try. But you didn't have to pound him so soundly. I sure hope he'll be ok." She bit her bottom lip and finally gave in to her sadness and leaned forward leaning her head on Kenny''s chest and sighed heavily.
Anya tsked. " I saw Kenny manhandling you and I couldn't talk myself out of not following. Though I stayed a the bottom so you guys could have your privacy though now I'm debating the wisdom of that." Anya tapped her foot and knelt down next to him and wrapped her arms around him. Her voice soft and soothing. " I didn't come in here to be entertained. I came to help in whatever way I can. I'm sorry the healing hurt, but you needed it." She got silent for a moment and it became clear that she wasn't just going to let him sit in misery alone but she wasn't going to force him to get over it. She'd sit there all night and let him cry if that's what he needed.

Kenny frowned and pulled her close to him. He held her one hand running up and down her back while the other cradled her head. "Yes i did... And he knows it...thats why he didn''t protect himself..." He kissed the top of her head. "Lets head to the common room... You could use some sleep... " He would hold her all night if thats what she wanted, but he wanted her to be in a private place in case she needed to break down.
Marc glowered. "Anya...this was somethin' Ah hud tae dae... kennedy was reit tae beat oan me...i did kinda kiss his burd..." He squirmed slightly. He had only met this first year earlier that day. "Anya...thenk ye but Ah hink Ah jist need tae pick myself up an' heed back tae th' common room. "
He gave her an apologetic look."Aam sorry... Ah cannae dae thes reit noo... nae wi' a bonnie lassie loch ye...eem serioosly contemplatin'... gonnae aff lasses aw together..."He said this last part as a joke but it came out as a sad statement without any emphasis.

Von glared at Kenny for a moment. " Sometimes I think I'll never understand the male mind." She nodded numbly and slid back under his arm as they walked back to the common room. She didn't say much the rest of the trip.
Anya nodded but still sat there. " While I don't agree to kissing another guy's girl. I understand the situation." She shoook her head dismissing his apology. "Marcellus Adair! I don't care about you swearing off women. I'm just helping a fellow housemate out. If it makes you feel better think of me as one of the 'lads', a friend if you will. Now let's get you back." She leaned down and offered to help him up, with a bright smile on her face.

Kennedy shook his head. "You really don't want to... The male mind is a disgusting thing with little tack and less grace..." He tried a small smirk but it failed and he rubbed her arm as they walked. Opening the main common room entrance he lead von inside.
Marc simply stared at her. His mind raced through all the possibilities that were laid out in front of him. He could embrace this offer of friendship as just that, and at a time when he really needed a friend. Or he could reject her and be all alone. "Braw... 'en ye ur jist a body ay th' laddies." With that he grasped her hand and stood. HE stumbled at first but he caught himself. "Thanks Anya..." HE offered a grimace of a smile. "Fur followin' me."

Von felt numb and absentmindedly shrugged. " Think I'm gonna take your word on that one." She leaned into his steadiness and let him lead her into the common room but as they moved to sit on the couch she shook her head. " I think I'm just gonna go to bed. We've got a long day ahead, tomorrow." She gave a sad smile and kissed his cheek before dragging herself to her room.
As he grasped her hand she let out the breath she'd been holding. But as he stumbled she stepped up and threw his arm over her shoulders so more of his weight would be on her. She had to get him down the stairs and back to their common room. " You are most welcome Marc. And once we get to the common room I have a salve we can put on your bruises to help you heal." She took a slow step and kept an eye on how Marc was moving. "I'm just glad I can help."

Kenny frowned as he watched her go. It was horrible to see her this way. Maybe he should have just let marc keep avoiding her. He sighed. Knowing von as he did... she wouldn't have dropped this until it happened so it needed to happen. He sighed again and ducked back out to get a few pages done in the music room.
Marc frowned. She was going so far out on a limb for him that he felt she was the only thing that kept him from falling. He clung to her... To broken to care what it looked like. He shifted carefully. His one hand over her shoulder and the other rested on her hand. He gripped it in his. "Im glad it was you. Even if it was just earlier we met." He forced the english so it came out a little rough but he wanted to make sure she understood completely.
