Kaori didn't say anything after that and just held him. After a few minutes she looked at the clock. "All right I think you need to go to bed so you can sleep," she said gently.
Delilah hugged him but didn't make any other movement. "I'm tired," she said after a moment ignoring the fact that her face had been bleeding.
Rosalie wasn't sleeping well due to the fact she kept having nightmares about Mitch disappearing and not coming back.

"...alright..."he said softly holding her close before useing the sink to force himself to stand up. He stared at her and wiped his eyes, Andy took a deep breath and brought a shakey and thin hand out to her to help the woman up.
"All right," he looked at her searchingly and stood up grabbing a cloth and wetting it. Cast then cleaned her face off and put a bandaid on it. He stared at the knife and put it on the sink. The man then lifted Delilah up into his arms and held her like a little kid. He headed upstairs and prayed to God he wouldn't faint on the stairs with her. But luck was on his side when he made it up and went into her room resting Delilah on the bed.
"Do you want me to leave or stay sweety?"

Kaori got up with only a little bit of his help and wrapped an arm around his waste gently. "It's okay," she said again.
"Stay please," delilah begged. She frightened now and she was shaking slightly. She no longer had the medicine in her and without Mitch she wouldn't be able to take it. She didn't share the thought with Cast because she didn't want to frighten him at all.

Andy nodded and leaned into her slightly, "...will you be staying tonight?"he questioned softly.
Cast nodded and laid down beside her putting her head onto the pillow and moveing her body slightly. He pulled her close to him and rested his head on the pillow.

"If you want me to," Kaori said in response. "I think I will." She hadn't let him answer because she knew she would be the only rational one the next morning for the kitchen issue.
Delilah felt more comfortable with him now and a bit safer.

The next morning, it was early. The smell of grass and burning leaves filled the air. The sparkle of dew was on the grass and the sun was just about to rise. Mitch sighed, he felt better but hadn't sleepen all night. He fealt so horrible what he did to Delilah, to his dad! He felt like an idiot drunk or something and he didn't even drink! Mitch's chest was still burning furiously but he figured he got heart burn from the dinner or something or maybe it was stress. He never snapped really but he had yesterday and was terrified of doing it again.
"Rosalie?"his voice went up an octive seeing her sleeping outside. He rushed over to her, "wake up! Are you crazy? You could have died o-or someone could have hurt you o-or a wild animal could have hurt you and givin you rabies!"he shook her slightly, "R-rosalie."

Rosalie stirred from her sleep and she felt cold. When she saw Mitch she smiled slightly but then remembered the previous night and scowled at him. She felt too weak to get up though and when she realized this she looked frightened. "I'm tired," she said. "I don't think I'm crazy I just want to sleep."
Delilah hadn't slept well and was downstairs in the kitchen now cleaning up. Kaori was still sleeping at the moment.

"...does it hurt anyware?"he asked nervously, "throat? Head? Anyware? And do you have heartburn?" he questioned hoping she did so he could be sure about himself. "Darn it, you should have slept inside, its dangerous out here."he sighed deeply.
Cast was in Delilah's bed awake but still felt tired.

Delilah noticed that Mitch had returned now and she practically ran out to the front porch. "I'm sorry," she blurted out. "I'm really sorry. It's my fault cast is falling asleep and I can't do enough and I could barely take care of my sister before and I"m just a failure." She started to cry again and Rosalie looked confused. She forced herself out of the chair and went over to Delilah feeling rather sore.

"D-delilah, no..."he stood up and walked up to Delilah, he took her hands. "Listen, I don't hate you I just got mad. Everything...well...aside from the insults to myself...are not true. It is not your fault what happened to Cast. He's the one who made the choice to pop the pills, not you. You aren't a failure either, your a good woman who has a future ahead of her in anything she chooses. Nothings your fault...although what you said did sting...a lot. It's fine though because its true. Thank you for the insults because now I..."he didn't finish but smiled slightly, "its fine. Calm down, dont cry. You can hit me as hard as you can if you want."

Delilah stopped crying and looked extremely confused. "But... you were... you talked about my parents," she mumbled. "It hurts to think about it. They committed suicide in front of my eyes. Don't ever say anything like that again. I can't sleep now."
Rosalie gasped when she heard how her aunt and uncle had really died and sank to the floor.

"I'm deeply sorry, I'll..."he slurred slightly and shook his head, "mmm...I promise I'll never do it again," he said while his face flushed red.
"Rosalie...jesus...both of you need to get inside. Delilah, your due for your medicine for one thing and Rosalie...well I think your sick. Inside, both of you,"he knelt down to Rosalie and lifted her up effortlessly though he looked to be in a bit of pain.
"Inside, the promise is made. You both need rest and I have a mess to clean up,"he said softly, "...Delilah...I'm so very sorry."

Delilah just nodded slightly. She followed him inside and took a seat in one of the chairs feeling extremely exhausted again. She fell asleep almost immediately.
Rosalie looked pale at the moment and coughed slightly. She was frail due to the diet she was always on so this was probably going to hit her quite hard.

"Rosalie, sit. I'm going to get you some medicine,"he laid her on the couch gently. Mitch then headed upstairs to his own room, went to his hideing place for the medicine which he was amazed he could still get to since he wasn't a kid anymore. There was a crawl space in his room in the wall of his closet where he always went as a kid. It was big inside but you had to crawl through a tiny opening and then a path before getting to the bigger parts. He went inside, quickly grabbed the medicine, and left back downstairs makeing sure to cover up the crawl space.
He set some medicine up on a spoon then sat on the coffee table holding the spoon out to Rosalie, "open up Miss.Rosa,"he commented.

Rosalie looked a bit stunned when he called her Rosa. "How'd you know my real names Rosa?" she asked sleepily. She looked at the medicine and made a face though she took it. It tasted disgusting and made her gag slightly but she felt weak and tired. She rested her eyes now and she waited for his response to her comment.
