After a time, Chel stood up and worked her way up to the final floor. She had to pause there too, but a time much longer after that she moved to go back to Chris' apartment.
Except ... she had to pass Shun's door.
She let out a sigh and knocked.

Shun had gone into his place and began to put away his groceries. He had just finished doing just that when the knocking came at his door. Closing his eyes, he let out a sigh, then made his way over to open the door. Just as he expected, it was Chel (who else would it be? Seriously, no one else came by his apartment.)
He didn't say anything. Instead, he just stared down at her, waiting to see what she'd say.

Chel was still awkwardly holding her side, having rushed it a little bit to not give him the chance to forget about it.
"Can we talk at Chris' apartment?" was what she asked, eyes on the ground. She wasn't keen to reenter Shun's place.

And Shun wasn't keen on letting her come in again.
"I am uncertain if I want to speak with you at all, really. Given how our last 'conversation' had gone."

"That's fair," she said, resisting the urge to kick at the ground. "I was a really big d**k. M'sorry." All Chel can do is keeping throwing apologies because she's not sure how else you treat hurt. She never got the chance to learn from her parents.
"I'd offer t'bang and get out of yer hair again but I don't think I can," she said with an awkward laugh.

Shun leaned against the door frame, then looked over Chel again while she gave that awkward laugh.
"What the hell happened to you anyway?"
He had to ask. She definitely was worse off since he last saw her. Those injuries weren't a result of the Blackfriar incident.

"Got into a knife fight with a shark."
A pause. Oh right, Shun didn't do jokes.
"Got drunk and hit by a car."

There was a hard stare upon Chel as she said the first thing. And that didn't change when she fessed up the actual reason. Shun closed his eyes and slowly shook his head.
"Just go home."

"Come with me." She didn't reach to stop him (she knew that would end badly, but she did stay firmly where she was. "You can trust me, even f'you don't think so."

"Not sleepy," Chel retorted, "Tired of ..."
Her voice dragged off and she chose to make a gesture between the two of them. "This."

Shun gave her a blank look. He actually wasn't sure what she was talking about.

"People gettin' mad at me," she elaborated shortly.
