Desmond's eyes widened when he heard Mitsu cry out, officially worried. She WAS in pain.
The answer to Neko's question was... irritating at most. Not that he couldn't see why after what happened. the vampire supposed that if the shoe was on the other foot, he'd feel the same way.
But then Neko subtly accused Desmond of inflicting such a wound on her. Well. That was just uncalled for...
Shooting Neko a glare before looking back to Mitsu, Desmond wondered just how 'small' the cut was. His girlfriend had the tendency to under-exaggerate how bad she felt... And he had a feeling this was one of those times. ".. Can I see it?" His tone was serious when he asked the question, staring into Mitsu's eyes as he waited for her response.

Neko couldn't say he fully believed what Mitsu told him but he wasn't going to press her for an answer that she probably wouldn't give. She looked like the kind of person that would cry under pressure anyway and Neko wasn't really up to dealing with that.
"I..It's fine Desmond," Mitsu said as her tail came up around her lap defensively. "I-It's wrapped up at the moment." She really hadn't answered his question, more like she had avoided it, though that stern tone made her look like a small child being scolded.
"D-Do you really want to see?" She finally asked her nervous gaze shifting to Neko shortly. If Desmond really wanted to know she would show him, despite how much she didn't want to. But Neko....she didn't want the janitor to ask her a bunch of questions.
Klyde sat quietly through the exchange between the others. He was almost like a statue watching over Riyo for the smallest of movements. He wasn't sure when she would wake up but he would be here when she did.

Desmond watched as she responded nervously, knowing full well what that meant. She WAS lying.
"... No Mitsu, it's okay." He sighed, glancing to the side. Reaching up his hand, he pat her on the head softly. "Just... Know that you don't have to hide things from me." Though he figured she still would...
---
It had taken a couple hours for Riyo to even move, so when she woke up, it was about sunset. Not that you could really tell with how dark they kept their room.
"Mm..." Came a soft moan from Riyo, who rolled to her side with her arm draping over the mattress. It took her a moment to respond further, a yawn escaping her mouth.
"... Why is my blanket wet?" She asked what she thought was just herself. "********... I stopped doing that when I was 9..." And then she opened her eyes... And EVERYBODY was there. "... Oh. OH. I mean, I stopped doing that when I was 6..." Wait. Her hair was wet too. Hm...
"... Any reason everybody is here this early in the morning?" Redirect the question. Best idea.

As things settled down Mitsu had laid down for a nap as well. She slept most of the day away but not nearly as long as Riyo had. Sometime after mid day she had forced her way back out of bed to go into the bathroom and clean up things a little bit before taking a shower.
Once she was showered and in fresh clothes she took up residence in her bed again waiting for Riyo to awaken to make sure she was okay. She really wanted something to eat but she didn't feel right really leaving to go get anything. Not just yet anyway.
Tim in the mean time had taken up a position on Riyo's bed again, curling up next to the feline while she was asleep, wet or not. His bright yellow eyes kept staring up at the feline's face and it was only when she started to move again did he let out a chirpy purr.
Klyde, hadn't moved an inch from his chair the entire day. After the blood he had drank took hold he had felt much better, at least physically. Mentally he was still pretty torn up on the inside, especially knowing he felt better because he had hurt Riyo. It was one of those few times he really hated what he was. A monster who couldn't live without feeding off others like a parasite.
He had started to really worry when Riyo hadn't woken up within the first couple of hours, and by late day he was completely distressed. When he finally saw movement and heard her voice it was like a wave of relief had washed over him.
"Riyo..." Klyde said softly moving out of his chair for the first time and coming to stand by her bed. Nervously he reached down a hand to touch her arm, her question barely registering in his mind. "Are you okay?"
Neko had taken a seat on the floor and had spend the better part of the day on his phone messing with apps and browsing the internet. God bless the new phones of today.
When he finally heard Riyo speak up, he tilted his head up in her direction, a curious look on his face at her first comment. Bed wetter at nine? Well, we couldn't all be perfectly potty trained he supposed.
"Well, its not morning anymore its actually late afternoon..eh.." Neko had started to push his way up and realized how stiff he had gotten from sitting on the floor. Stretching out a bit once he was on his feet he put his phone away in his pocket. "Welcome back to the land of the living. You've been out all day, I was starting to worry." He really had been, though his tone really didn't say as much.

Desmond had quietly watched over Mitsu's body as she slept... While he wasn't forcing himself to drink a couple bottles of fake blood Neko had brought up. He hated the taste... But what he hated more was the thought that he might do something reckless again if he didn't fill his stomach up, disgusting beverage or not.
At one point, he'd sat on the floor next to Mitsu's bedside and took a short nap with his arms as pillows, as uncomfortable as it ended up being. Otherwise... It was boring... And awkward, considering Klyde was like a ******** statue.
No, he couldn't blame the guy, but Desmond had to wonder if his cousin was actually thinking about anything or if the blank look was really just that.
After hours upon painful hours, Riyo finally came around. Thank God...
Riyo's eyes moved from the different figures in her room and finally settled upon Klyde. ".. I-I'm alright." He didn't look like he was though. Had he not gotten enough sleep last night? "I had a real crazy nightmare though, and all of you were... There..."
It took her a moment to process what Neko had said, but when she did, her brows furrowed and the hand that currently wasn't held by Klyde moved to touch her neck. Her face paled considerably when she felt the bandage right where she thought it would be.
"... Oh." Was all Riyo could manage to say, glancing away from everyone as if it was just a channel she could stop watching.

Klyde's still heart sank a little when Riyo seemed to realize what had happened. "I'm...so sorry, Riyo. I didn't mean for that to happen." In an attempt to comfort her he reached up to caress her cheek his fingers brushing away some strands of hair. "I lost control...I'm so sorry."
Mitsu was rather relieved to see Riyo awake, though the girl seemed to be a little fuzzy on what had just happened. It was a lot to take in. Slowly she eased her way out of bed on the side closest to Riyo and stepped over toward the girl. Her steps were still a little slow but because they were slow they were a little more steady than earlier.
"It will be alright, Riyo." Mitsu said softly, reaching out to touch Riyo's shoulder. She was still alive after all and hadn't been hurt too badly, though she had taken a nasty fall.
Neko had thought about stepping closer to see how Riyo was doing but her bedside was suddenly swarmed with people. It made him realize he was a little out of place in the room. These were her friends, he was just the old man who looked out for her from time to time.
"Hey uh....do you need anything?" He offered at least. Otherwise he supposed he would leave soon.

When Riyo heard the devastation in Klyde's voice, she slowly started to realize something.
They were very similar. She and Klyde.. And she was almost certain that some day, the tables would be turned. Then she'd be the one apologizing profusely.
She wanted to be hurt. Wanted to let herself feel miserable over the fact that the person she trusted the most dealt her a low blow.
But... Letting Klyde suffer for something she had done and would probably do again just wouldn't be right.
Slowly, her hands reached up to touch the one that caressed her face, removing it so she could hold it in hers. "You look like a mess." The comment might have been cold, but there was a little smile on her face as she finally glanced back up at him.
"Yeah... I'll be alright." As alright as a psychotic being could be, at least. "Thanks Mitsu."
It did warm her heart a little to have a half-circle of friends at her bedside, kinda like Dorothy when she woke up from skipping her lil' tramp self around Oz.
But... Neko seemed anxious to leave. Well... He HAD been there the whole day. "Um..." Riyo was hungry. REALLY hungry... But she didn't want to burden the janitor any further. "No, but... Thanks. It means a lot to me that you're always there." Saving her a** or trying to smooth out the wrinkles somebody else had made.
But as she was about to say something else, probably equally mushy, her stomach let out an almost evil sounding hiss.
"... Heh." So much for hiding the fact that she was starving.

It didn't seem she wanted anything from him. He supposed that was fine. "It's no problem," Neko nodded, though he couldn't help but feel this was partly his fault.
Neko's eyebrows raised a little when he heard Riyo's stomach....at least if that was her stomach and not some horrible demon crying out from inside her. "Seems to me you're hungry. If you're up to it I can take you and Mitsu to get something to eat." The other girl hadn't left the room all day, so she obviously hadn't eaten. Surely she was hungry too.
Mitsu's stomach grumbled at the mention of food, she was pretty hungry. Looking over to Desmond for a moment she moved back over to her bed. "What are you going to do?" She wasn't sure how well he was feeling and he still didn't have a shirt on. "If you still need a shirt I think I might still have a couple that belonged to my brother."
Klyde was a relieved to see that smile, despite how little it was. If felt like it lifted a heavy burden off his shoulders just by the sight of it. "Yeah...I suppose I am." He said softly giving her hand a light squeeze.
The loud hissing noise from her stomach was hard to miss, a soft smile crossing his face. "You should get something to eat. It will help get your strength back."

Riyo's head said no... But her body said 'You stupid ********, go get some food.'
"If you don't mind, Neko." Because she really couldn't turn it down... And she didn't think Mitsu could either.
Sitting up slowly, she gave Klyde's hand a little kiss before letting it go. She could feel that her hair was already a mess. Wait. What was she wearing?
More importantly, what WASN'T she wearing? Underwear and pants were the answer to that question.
A soft red blush covered her face when she realized what she was lacking... In the presence of 3 men. "... I need to get dressed."
Desmond looked up as Mitsu approached, a little wary that another man would be taking her out to eat... Since it was obvious the two weren't invited, but at least Riyo would be with her. "I guess I'll take the zombie back to our room." Probably wouldn't be a good idea sleeping here and risking another absence at school... As much as he might want to.
Looking down at himself, Desmond realized it probably wouldn't be a good idea to leave the room without a shirt. He didn't want women chasing after him or others asking questions about the light bruises on his skin. "If you don't mind, Mitsu. I can clean it off and bring it back to you."

"Oh right....dressed...." It took a moment for Neko to compile his thoughts to react properly. "I'll.....wait outside." He pointed to the door before making toward it. The door clicked softly behind the feline as he made his way into the hallway to wait for the two girls. At least this way he could keep an eye on them for a bit longer and he wouldn't have to worry about something bad happening when he left.
When Desmond confirmed that he would like a shirt Mitsu moved back to her dresser and started to rummage again. It took her a moment but she finally pulled out two more shirts that were obviously too large for her. They looked rather plain, only solid colors, but it would make sense if they belonged to her brother. He wouldn't be too concerned with fashion...he couldn't see.
"Here you go," Mitsu handed Desmond both shirts so he could give the other one to Klyde; one Slate and the other grey. While they were big on her they would probably be a little snug on the boys. Her brother was somewhat thin and lanky, it ran in the family, but Desmond and Klyde were both built.
Klyde didn't really want to leave Riyo's side but it seemed he wasn't invited on their little outing to get food. It would probably be best if he returned to his own dorm room though. "Call me...when you get back?" As he stood back to his feet he placed a kiss on Riyo's forehead, a hand lightly touching the back of her head to pull her in closer.

Smiling, Desmond gratefully took the shirts from her. "Thank you." Setting the second shirt down momentarily, Desmond carefully lifted up his arms to put the shirt on. It was... Definitely a tight fit. The shirt didn't really leave too much to be desired, considering most of the natural lines on his body were showing.
Oh well. It was only a temporary thing anyways.
Hands reaching out to cup her face, Desmond closed the small gap inbetween them to place a soft kiss on her lips. "I love you." He whispered to her, a look of admiration in his deep blue eyes as he stared at her face.
One Neko left, Riyo awkwardly stood, making sure to pull the shirt down as she moved.
Instead of responding to his question, her arms wrapped around his torso, squeezing only until she remembered he'd been injured. As she pulled back, the feline stood on her toes to make sure her lips were at height of his ear. "It's okay Klyde... I've done it too." She whispered softly... But couldn't bring herself to tack on 'and I'll probably do it again.'

"I guess...the shirt isn't as roomy on you as it is me." Mitsu commented seeing how tight it was on Desmond, though she couldn't say she didn't like the look. She was only allowed to stare for so long before Desmond came closer, cupping her face so that he could place a tender kiss to her lips. Closing her eyes she enjoyed the sweet contact before he pulled away, a light blush tinting her cheeks. "I love you too. And...I'm sorry I didn't tell you that I was hurt. I didn't want to worry you over every little cut and bruise."
Klyde was surprised when Riyo stood and even more so when her arms wrapped around his torso. It took every ounce of will power he had not to make of noise of discomfort but Riyo seemed to remember he was hurt and loosened her grip a little.
He wasn't sure what to say to her words, instead his hands came up to embrace her, lightly wrapping around her back to hold her close. "We have a heck of a relationship it seems..." He whispered before pulling back to place a kiss on the feline's lips. His gentle touch lingered for a moment before he finally pulled back. "I...guess I'll leave you to get dressed." Though he seemed reluctant to do so.

Desmond watched her for a moment, enjoying the soft red hue on her cheeks before she apologized to him. "But I want to worry about you, silly." Before pulling away, he planted one last kiss on her forehead. "Have a good dinner, Mitsu. Call me if you need anything."
A heck of a relationship... Yeah, she supposed so. Though, she still wasn't sure about what he'd unconsciously said to her the night before. Should she say something to him about it?
No... Even if she wanted to, she just couldn't bring herself to do so. Especially after this morning.
Basking in the soft moment they shared before he pulled back, Riyo sighed and pulled her own arms away. "Alright.. I'll call you later." Though she had no idea what they'd talk about. Probably awkward silence...
Noticing Klyde saying his (sortof) goodbyes to Riyo, Desmond tossed him the other shirt without warning. "C'mon, lets go back and get ourselves cleaned up." And talk about what they'd learned on this... Less than spectacular day.

Klyde turned around in time to get a shirt in the face, only managing to catch it as it dropped down into his hands. Right....his shirt had been taken. Slipping the thing on he noticed right away it wasn't going to leave much to the imagination. It was rather tight around his chest and stomach but at least it fit he supposed.
"Yeah, I guess." Klyde didn't quite need a shower, he had already had one in a way, his pants were still damp in places to prove it. "Bye, Riyo. I'll talk to you later." Klyde sneaked in one last parting kiss before he follow Desmond toward the door to leave. This had been a heck of an event which he really wished never to relive. Was it strange to already feel he was too old for this s**t?
Mitsu smiled as Desmond left one more kiss on her forehead before heading off. "Okay, See you later." She called before turning to Riyo.
"Do you need help with anything?" Riyo seemed to be standing well on her own and moving about but if she needed help Mitsu would be there to offer her assistance any way she could. The girl had helped her out a lot when she had been hurt after all since the first few days after she had left the hospital and actually made it back to the dorm had been a little rough.
