Welcome to Gaia! ::

Alex watched on with wide-eyes. One, for the fact that she had completely jinxed herself with the whole room thing. Two...mister country boy was walking around with hundred dollar bills in pocket cash. She only knew of two people who did that. One was one of her best friends. The other was someone she'd like to put his head on a spoke.

Shaking her head clear, she carefully followed the two to the elevator and stepped inside.

Alex spun around and made her way straight for the tv. "Y-yeah. That's fine. I'm just gonna kick back and see if I can try to relax some of this extra energy off. Haven't gotten to watch tv in a while." she answered without looking back at him.
It wasn't like the whole shirtless thing was bothering her...she was around sweaty muscle men all the time. It was just...after that close encounter, and them being in the same room for the whole night...she wasn't taking any chances. "I'll, uh, probably need a shower myself after you. Haven't gotten a chance to clean up in days. I'm surprised I don't still smell like burnt garbage. Guess the last trip took care of that."

Alex did just as she said she was going to do. She sat down right in front of the tv, made herself comfortable, and began flipping through the channels for something good to watch. A distraction felt really good right now. She really hadn't gotten to do anything but run around for days now. With Sapphire, that robot, the little girl, Batman, Blackstone, and now all this crap?

Ugh. TV. Such a wonderful thing.

With nothing on...Alex left the channel on some documentary on wolves. It seemed to be the second half of the show, as it was now talking about a female wolf named Nika and the Alpha male named Okah. The program began with the two finally coming together and "coupling"....when the smell reached Alex's still peaked senses.

She swore outloud and jumped from the couch, hurrying over towards the window. She forced the thing open and shoved her head out it for some fresh air.

What the HELL was she doing? She shouldn't be here. She should just...go outside, beat the living **** out of some wannabe thug, then come back after she's worked out all her unspent energy. Then she wouldn't have to worry about catching a scent or...or...any s**t that could get her in trouble.

(Aaaaannndd...Que the ditching scene.)

That was it.

Even half hanging out the window, Alex managed to catch the scent and the sound. With her hair practically standing on end, she latched onto the edge of the window, curled her legs up and launched herself off of the window and onto the ledge of another building. She flipped herself onto the rooftop and just started running across the rooftops.

Ohhhh shhhh... ****. Fresh air. Need fresh air. Room to run. Personal space. Find some thugs and beat the living s**t out of them. Then come back after he's done. ... ****.

"Mierda---me mata la cabeza!" Alex growled outloud as she left running and started doing as much parkor as she could from building to building. Trying to get as much energy and adrenaline out of her system as she could. There were no heroes here, so you'd think there'd be someone out creating a robbery or something.

Nope. Nothing.

"Ay, mierditas!" She hissed under her breath. Alright. She was a mile or so away by now. Time to start heading back. He should surely be done by now.

Alex returned, but stopped on the rooftop next to the hotel. She hesitated, staring at the window. Ugh. She didn't want to go back in. Could she just pop in and tell him she was going to sleep out here? Or she really needed to check on her friends. As far as she knew, one of them was still unconscious...had been cut open from the stomach up...and as much as she hated to think about it, might be pregnant. She had no idea if that was true or not, but it had been hinted at. She didn't bother prying into that farther.

......ugh.

Alex felt her heart sink a little. "Oh, g- Lucas..." she called out, sliding down from the edge of the rooftop and leaping over to the window. "It's not that." she said as she crawled through the window, back into the room. She stood between the window and the bed, wanting to assure him that HE didn't do anything...but she wasn't willing to get too close to him just yet. "I just...needed some air. A lot of air. My powers run by energy, and I worked up a LOT before I tried to take on that...thing. Then you rescued me and I just...everything was on full power and I had no way of getting rid of it. I've still got a lot of energy worked up and I could....I....the smell, and the....sound....I just...I couldn't....I just needed some air."
