Richard looked down at her before nodding. "I hope Vi and Deil have room for you to stay the night...If not, I'll put up for another room myself..." He assured, though Enty cocked his head. He knew that Richard knew they had no money on them. Shaking his head, he followed them towards the elevator.

"I can sleep on the floor... I'm not picky if they let me stay with them." Lorey stretched slightly in his arms, which was a tad precarious within the space of the elevator. Her legs were starting to fall asleep just like she was. But, she was still in the daze of living a dream and so didn't really care.
"Thank you, Richard. So much. For everything." Lorey smiled in spite of herself. How many times had she said that today?

"It has been my pleasure, I assure you...." He smiled, looking up at the numbers above the sliding doors. After a short silence, he pursed his lips as if to be thinking. "You know....this has been the first time I've really relaxed and enjoyed myself....maybe in the few years..." He admitted, still looking up.

"Really?" Lorey didn't find that hard to believe. "That's excellent. Maybe..." And here's when she went out on a limb. If Richard really did enjoy spending time with her, if he really was taking her out places and treating her so well, then...
"Maybe we should see each other more often."

Richard seemed surprised, but only for a moment. His face flushed a subtle red as he tried not to smile. He seemed to think for a moment, (or maybe he was just pausing for dramatic effect), but finally he nodded. "T-that would be lovely..." He said quietly, trying not to cough or smile. He was actually very ecstatic. He had been thinking that Lorey just thought of him as a friend or even brother his whole night, but now, his hopes were confirmed. Enty could sense his elation and smiled silently as he looked off at a random corner of the elevator. "Lovely indeed..." A small, brilliant smile broke through, Richard's face still a tad red.

Seeing his reaction made her own face light up with a grand excitement.
"Then I'll get to see you smile more often."
Lorey reached out to run a finger gently across his reddish cheek with a small, nervous laugh of relief. Maybe, just maybe, this would begin the perfect romance she had always dreamed of, but never realistically thought she could have. There had to be flaws, though. Everything in her life had them, but Richard... he was bound to be something different.

Richard swallowed hard, feeling his whole body tremble at her touch. He felt his knees go weak, whit wasn't good, considering that he was holding her. He merely smiled embarassed as the elevator finally came to a stop. "W-well here we are...." He announced for no particular reason as he headed down the familiar hall towards Vi's room. Arriving, Enty reached out and knocked quietly.
From within, Vi perked up, hearing the knock. She was a tad disapointed that they were interrupted but realized it must either be the food or Richard with Lorelee. easing herself gently from Deilita's tired, warm arms, she quietly tip toed towards the door, smiling gently as she discovered Richard, looking rather spiffy, caring a beautifully dressed Lorelee. Though both seemed not to hide the fact that Richards face was a tad bloody and swollen. "What happened to you?" She asked, a bit alarmed as she opened the door for them. Richard just shrugged to dismiss it.
"Would it be alright for Lorey to sleep here tonight? She's been through a lot these last few hours...." Vi studied his face, curious but agreed as she tried to figure out the sleeping arrangements.

"Nothing to worry about, though," she chimed in a rather sleepy voice. She almost wished he would set her down so she could be a bit more convincing. "This one needs ice, though." Lorey patted Richard's chest lightly, hoping he would really do as she said and get something to put over his cuts and bruises. Her scrapes were nothing compared to his swollen features.
She still thought he was dazzling, though.

Vi sighed, seeming to understand before looking around. "Here..." She reached under the couch and pulled out the mattress that it made. "I'm not so tired any more, so I may just have a look at that engine if you and Enty don't mind..." She added, glancing back towards a dozing Deilita. Richard just noticed him and was surprised to find him shirtless on the bed. Though he considered it none of his business, he returned to making Lorey comfortable. Richard shrugged as he gently set her down into bed, though kept one hand held lightly over hers. Enty seemed to nod and with his fuzzy little paw, he grabbed VI's hand and started to lead her towards the door.

"I refuse to sleep until you're taken care of." Lorey, always being the one to fuss and tidy, was not about to go off into sleep if Richard was still swollen, bruised and bloodied. Only wanting the best for him, she gently tried to get herself into the kitchen area where she hoped there was complimentary ice hiding in the mini fridge.

Vi glanced back at the two, smiling slyly before following Enty out into the hall way, while Richard rubbed his neck. "I'll be fine, I swear..." He tried to assure, though his head ache had gotten a tad worse.

"Sit." Lorey pushed him slightly towards the little pull out bed, and went to go get a clean cloth from the bathroom. Once she retrieved a fluffy, clean wash cloth, she went over to the small mini fridge where she was relieved to find a little ice bucket. From there she pulled out a few chunks of ice, wrapped them in the cloth, wet it just a bit, and returned to Richard.
"Here. Now where does it hurt the most?" Lorey was examining his face, though her eyes were meeting his more than they had been all day. Poor, poor thing. Look at how he's so beat up, all for me...

Richard shrugged a bit, trying to act casual. "It does sting a tad here..." He said, pointing towards the knot that was growing on his brow. It throbbed actually, though he said nothing so as not to worry Lorey. He seemed to look at her eyes for a moment before smiling. "You have the most beautiful eyes, you know that? or...did I already say that?" He wandered aloud, thinking the blow to his head may have been more serious than he thought.

Right as he pointed to it, she gently placed the makeshift icebag upon the spot. If he wanted to hold it, then she would let him, but... well, Lorey enjoyed taking care of him.
At his compliment, her cheeks became little circles of red.
"You might have." She noted the worried look in his eyes. "You should lay down. You did get beaten senseless for a moment back there..." Lorey reached with her free hand for the pillow, patting it. "Come on. I bet my cleaning cloth that you have a splitting headache, Richard."

"I said I was fine...." HE mumbled, though he did have to admit the ice felt good. He reluctantly laid back, but felt much better once he did. He smiled unconsciously and closed his eyes for a moment, to get comfortable. He was more than thankful for her care, though wasn't sure how to express it.
Meanwhile, out in the hall, Vi was inquiring about the two. "Enty was it? It may just be me, but is there something going on there?" She asked as the little brown creature shrugged but smiled devilishly. Vi giggled a bit, though suddely realized she had left Deilita in their asleep. "I Should probably go get him to give them some privacy...though he's so tired..." She frowned a little discontent.
