The morning following his decision to visit Lily, to talk, Alexandre had taken a shower. His hair washed, and dry, he'd pulled on a polo and jeans, sneakers as well, and headed out the door. His wallet and cell phone slipped into pockets as he left the house, calling over his shoulder for his father to hear. Telling his father where he was going, and that he'd be grabbing breakfast on the way.

The first thing he did was get food, an omelet, at a small dive in the city. Parsley, bacon, mushrooms. It was all wrapped up and ready to go, and go he did. A short drive took him to his usual cafe, where an espresso was bought. It was while eating, his drink cooling in a cup holder, that he made the drive to Lily's house.

Still nibbling at his breakfast, and drinking, he used his elbow to ring the door bell. She should be up, it wasn't too early in the morning after all.

"Lily, you'd better not be sleeping in." He needed to talk to her. Another nibble of food taken, and a sip of espresso from the cup in his right hand. Somehow he managed to look a little younger than he was, standing there looking lost and eating as he was.

"I'm coming," came a very obviously male voice. That meant it could only be on of two people. Lily's dad Aaron, or Xander. Xander was the one who peeked out window before opening the door to Alex, standing an even six feet and looking like the male twin to Lily.

"Hello, Alexandre. Lily is in the music room playing the piano, you know the way right," he said softly opening the door wider so that Alex could come and so he could leave out. "Would you lock the door for me Alexandre, I've got to head to hospital now, wouldn't want to be late, now would I."

Xander smiled and headed out.

Lily sat at the piano playing and singing Bottle it Up by Sara Bareilles completely oblivious to her surprise visitor. The music could be heard down the hall it was no mystery as to where she was.

"There'll be girls across the nation
That will eat this up babe
I know that it's your soul but could you bottle it up and
Get down to the heart of it,
No it's my heart you're s**t out of your luck
Don't make me tell you again my love love love love.
Love love love love.

I am aiming to be somebody this somebody trusts
With her delicate soul
I don't claim to know much except soon as you start
To make room for the parts
That aren't you it gets harder to bloom in a garden of
Love love love love
Love Love love love

Only thing I ever could need, only one good thing
Worth trying to be and it's ..."

Oh how he felt suddenly very short, Lily's brother had that ability though. Normally he didn't feel short, even though he knew he was compared to most males his age. But he never seemed to actually feel short until in the presence of his best friends brother. How he managed this Alexandre would never know, though he wasn't sure if he wanted to in all honesty.

"Thank you, and of course." A nodding of his head and a flash of a smile. He liked Lily's brother, he was decent. "Have a safe drive there." It wouldn't do for something to happen to him.

The door was closed and locked before he headed up to the music room. He could already hear her singing, not a surprise though. No surprise the music room door was opened, if only a peep. Toeing it open further he peeked in. Yawning, covering it with the back of a hand, he felt bad interrupting her.

"Lily..." Calling out, trying not to be too loud, but just loud enough to gain her attention. He knew he looked tired, he'd seen it in the bathroom mirror this morning, not to mention he felt it. If this kept up he'd have dark eye lids and darkness would color the skin under his eyes too. He couldn't have that, it was simply unacceptable; for many reasons.

Lily looked up and gave a grin to Alex, her fingers stilling on the key before she turned back and gather up her music to put it away. She stood and headed to put the music back in the cabinet, but stopped halfway looking Alex over.

"Alex," are you okay, she asked worried laced in her voice. Her friend did not look to good and that usually meant one thing. They had been involved in something not so great and usually negaverse. She hoped he had not been attacked by a youma.

She quickly put the papers in the cabinet and went to grab Alex's hand, "come on Alex, we can go talk on the balcony of my room. It nice out this morning."

"I wish I could enjoy it." He spoke, his food gone, finished, a wrapper left in his hand. He sipped his espresso, which was cool; nearly cold, by now.

"I can't sleep, it's like I've seen a spider, but I haven't." She knew whenever he saw one he had nightmares, and couldn't sleep. But he hadn't seen one, which was the problem. "Two nights, I keep waking up, and turning in my bed." It just had him tired and looking like he'd had an encounter with a youma, something he'd been lucky to not have an encounter with so far.

"I'd swear I'm hearing sounds, and feeling unsettled. It's like something is there, but I can't figure it out." And he was tired, he just couldn't sleep. Pulling a face, with the last sip of espresso, it was really too cold but he needed the caffeine in order to keep awake and he knew it.

"I'm tired, exhausted, but I can't find sleep properly. Lily..." What was going on? Help me. These two things were not spoken, but his eyes spoke the words for him.

Lily frowned and pulled Alex to the chair on the balcony, taking a seat and offering one to him as well. "That very odd and you say it been two days huh? You can go to sleep right, but you don't stay asleep?"

Lily was slightly confused, but not really surprised. Many people in Destiny had had their fair bout of the inability to sleep. Truthfully it was nothing new. Lily her self had gone through it too many times, but she had been fine the past fews day, so she hoped that maybe it was nothing.

It however did not sound likely as she listened to Alex explain what was going on with him. She was frowing deeply, not liking that look Alex was giving her. She most certainly couldn't explain feeling like something was there was something clearly was not. It made her shiver.

"I can, I'm tired. It's just impossible to stay asleep. I just keep waking up, feeling off. Yeah, it's been two days." He stated, while seating himself slowly. He didn't like feeling so unbalanced, not to mention tired. He didn't like being tired, even after his morning espresso. He shouldn't feel as tired as he did, he shouldn't be half asleep during the afternoon.

"I'm not paranoid...but I can't stay at home, it's just too uncomfortable. As much as I don't want to be away from my plants and paintings. Maybe it's just someone playing a prank. I can't think of anything else."

He really needed an out, some way to see if it was him or his house. Maybe an escape, for a short time, would help. "Do you think your parents would mind..if I could stay a few nights? It'd tell me if it's my house or me, if nothing happens here I can have my parents look into it." See who was screwing around and spooking him.

Lily listened carefully and nodding, "I have been fine, but you never know. Sleep problems seems to be a common occurrence in Destiny City," she started knowing she couldn't ever possibly explain why, but it almost always had something to do with a or some senshi, "I've suffered the same several times, though not the same way you have described. Its weird, but I just learned to except it."

Lily leaned back into the chair pulling her feet up and looking out to the morning sky, " as for staying over you know my parents would never mind, especially if you think it will help you sleep better. And were to old to sleep with our parent," she said giggling at the last part," but I would mind if you needed to sleep in here. Like old times." She smiled and leaned forward putting her head cheek down on her knees wrapping her arms around them.

"I hope its nothing to serious and that you and your house are just fine."

"It's not the same as any other time I've had sleep issues." She knew what he meant, he'd slept over before. He'd woken from nightmares, screaming about large spiders and huge fangs. Oh yes, he had his sleep issues after seeing spiders. But this was for no apparent reason, and thus very odd.

"I'm hoping it's just someone playing a prank. I really do." And hopefully sleeping here would handle two problems, telling him if it was a prank and get him some much needed sleep. "Do we get to share a room while I sleep over? A spare bed in your room?" He questioned, smiling at her, though the smile faltered as he yawned widely.

"I think it'll help being here for a few nights." He was sure it was some prank, or something. What else though could it be? And once it was found out to be some prank he'd handle whoever it was, or his mother would. Yes, he'd let his mother handle it. She was a lawyer after all, so he'd let her handle it. His mother just had a way of talking to people, it was amazing to watch really.

"Hmmm," she said thinking on the last time Alex had a nightmare at her house. It had been some time ago of course because they hadn't been able to see each other a lot for a while until recently. "If its not like that then maybe your just thinking to much on it. Surely a few night here will sort every thing out and you will be right as rain very soon."

"Hopefully it just a prank and it of course you can stay in my room, the trundle was moved out some time ago, but I do not see why we cannot move it back. Or maybe Xander can help move it when he get back from work, unless you would rather stay in a guest room."

Lily stood after a moment and moved back into her room, "I'll go ask mom if you can stay. I doubt she would refuse you, but in the mean time why don't you lay down on my bed, you look so tired."

School, and his greenhouse, had kept him fairly busy in the past few months. Finals and essays and such, how he hated both. But both were needed, and he'd had to study and give up his painting for a while in favor of studies. He'd also had to give up his time with Lily, and yet still submit to time at events his mother, and father, attended. Those things were needed, for his mothers career.

"I'm hoping so, like I said it could be a prank. If it is I'll be good after a few evenings here." He was somehow hoping it was indeed someone down the block playing a prank. He lived in a well off part of the city, but that didn't mean people there all possessed proper manners. Some were...common at best, throwing loud parties, and acting like children.

"I don't mind sharing a room with you, provided it's not something you mind." He'd enjoyed the nights watching movies, talking, and spent just talking. They had spent many a night in her room passing the time with ease. "I doubt she will either, thanks Lily." Smiling he got up and followed after her, breaking off so he could crawl up onto her bed. Toeing off his shoes he curled up, grateful for his friend and her family.

Lily nodded and ran out and down the hall heading toward the library, where her mother so often was. She knocked and peeked in, but she did not see her mother so she headed for the garden. Her mother shared Alexandre's love for garden, though Lily was certain Alex had far more passion for the hobby.

She grinned going out the back and running around the outside of the house until she found her mother. "Morning mom, flowers doing good?"

"Good morning Lily blossom, they are quite well. Would you like to help me tend to them?" Alyssa looked up to her daughter with a smile only to see her shaking her head. "What the matter Lily blossom?"

"Nothing really, not with me. Um Alex came over a bit ago and well he seems a bit out of sorts, not sleeping well. I was, we were wondering if he could stay over for a bit. Thinks someone might be playing a trick on him, change of scenery might be good. Beside we haven't had a sleep over in a long time."

Alyssa frowned at her daughter momentarily thinking she was a bit to old to having sleepovers with boys, but Alex was a close friend and Lily wouldn't lie about him not sleeping well. Not only that the pair seemed to innocent for their own good at time. "That's fine Lily blossom. I am sure after a few days he be back to sleeping normal."

"Thanks, mom," she said giving her mom a hug and running back up to her room, only to see Alex all curled up on her bed. Lily walked over covering him up and turning to walk out. As she closed the door she pausing saying, "she said yes."
