Arrow nods, knowing already that he'd hear this, but needing to hear it anyway. He finishes up Fox's masage and turns the adept to face him. "I think it's time we get you home for some sleep." he says. "You really need it." He climbs out of the spring, grabs a towel and wraps it around his slender waist. He grabs another and passes it to Fox.

He takes the towel and quickly wraps it around his waist while stepping out of the spring, and then grabs another for his hair. He can hardly believe he let it go into that kind of state. Vaguely, he starts wondering if Arrow isn't still a little mad of him... or if the scout isn't tired of taking care of him, since it seems like recently he's always just weak and confused.

After Fox towels his hair dry Arrow walks over and takes the mass and braids it for the scout. "There, now it won't eat itself again." he says. He pulls on his clothes and waits for Fox to be ready to go, although he doesn't look at him.

He looks down a moment, feeling embarrased about having created a state of things where Arrow feels it's necessary to baby him so much. He's really become useless recently. Fox's clothes were soaked, and it's not like he had a shirt there anyways, so he slips on a robe instead.

Arrow gently takes Fox's hand and leads him home.
Once there, he walks in to find Silvermoon still sitting at the table, waiting for Fox. Anger seethes and he glares at the man.

Fox had wanted to just follow along behind Arrow, but he wasn't about to take his hand back from the scout. He smiles weakly at Silver, who stands up when they enter, ignoring the death look coming from NightArrow.
He smiles, looking very relieved, "I'm glad to see you're all right, Snow. Take care of yourself so you don't get sick, all right?"
The trondi'irn had only stuck around long enough to make sure Fox was doing all right. He heads past the pair, and puts his hand on Arrow's shoulder, as an act of solidarity, "I'll be heading back to my guest lodging now, you two, good night."

Arrow nods to Silvermoon, still angry about the events earlier. He didn't think that Silvermoon had meant any ill from his actions, but Silvermoon *knew* fox. He had to have known how easy it was to take advantage of the adept when his mind was in such a state.
Arrow continues on and leads Fox into his bedroom. He gently shoves Fox into his bed.

Fox certainly can't pretend like he wasn't happy to be in his bed, he felt like he might sleep a bit better tonight, at least knowing that arrow was still his friend. Still, he feels a little awkward, after all, he's not used to Arrow not joining him, "Arrow... thanks for forgiving me."

Arrow quirks a grin at the Adept and leans forward, giving him a gentle hug. "I told you we'd be friends no matter what. I didn't lie." he says. "I was just upset yesterday." He kisses Fox's forehead and turns to leave. "I'll be by tomorrow, will you be at work?"

He smiles a little sheepishly, "I was a bit worried about that. I don't know if I'll go to work tomorrow. It depends on how I'm feeling, I guess."

Fox frowns a little. Arrow hadn''t even considered staying over for a moment. It''s true they aren''t dating anymore, but they shared a bed a few times before they were dating, usually specifically when foxy was unnerved like that. Still, when he tries to go to sleep, he doesn''t have too much trouble, especially with how tired he was from before.

Arrow goes to his house, wishing he'd stayed with Fox, although he knew it would be better on the both of them that he didn't. then he goes to bed, not falling asleep right away, but thinking about the words that he and fox had exchanged.
He is glad that Fox has finally admitted to liking him in a more than friendly fashion but at the same time he's a little unnerved that the Adept is still clinging to his feelings for Wind. Wind is compltely unavailible and Fox needs to understand that. Pining after him now is wasted energy.
He sighs, and finally drifts off into sleep.
The next week passes excrutiatingly slow. It's like the time when Arrow was courting Fodx and trying to convince him that they might actually work well together. He's afraid of doing even the slightest little thing wrong, like kiss the adept, or say something dirty... this is really annoyoing for Arrow but he truly can't do anything about it. He wants Fox to be sure this time...

For that week, Fox winds up quite... lost. Arrow is being perfectly gentlemanly, which is of course, totally out of character, so Snowfox feels a bit anxious around him. SilverMoon, possibly even MORE out of characterly, seems to be avoiding him, or at least spending very little time with him. Flower seemed to keep shoving him towards Arrow. The one he'd be spending the most time with was actually Wind. It didn't even really hurt anymore... to the point where he was thinking about meeting Rayne.
True, he'd all ready met the bard, but the circumstances would be a bit nicer this time.
Eventually, he starts feeling really strange aroudn Arrow. He'd catch himself thinking things like, 'What, aren't I attractive anymore?', which rather shocks himself. Eventually, he gets wind to give him another day off, and he goes on a trip out of the vale, just a day trip, so that he can think without any influence from anybody.
When he gets back, he goes to his ekele just long enough to get prettied up (yes, I'm using the phrase 'prettied up' not 'cleaned up', and you can decide what that choice means yourself) and then heads over to Arrow's.

Arrow is lounging outside his house, Tobio on his arm dozing and a cigarette in his other hand. He's noticed Fox spending more time with Wind than usual and this actually confuses him a little. Maybe it was all part of the healing process, whatever...
He looks up at the sky and sighs. Hopefully the adept is getting things straightened out...
