It was nearly noon before Shojoro awoke, he pulled himself out of bed and dragged his still heavy body into the living room. Matt wasn't there and he wondered where Celia had gotten to. He milled like a cow around the house until he finally came to sit at the kitchen table and, noticing there was coffee left in the pot, he dumped what seemed like half a ton of sugar into it and stirred until it was a solution rather than a mixture.

Celia had avoided Matt all morning, nothing personal. But when she heard someone in the kitchen, she went to check, and saw that it was Shojoro. 'Thank God... She thought to herself, going over to him. "Hey. I would say good morning, but it's afternoon by now. Did you sleep well?" She hoped he did, really hoped he did.

"I can honestly say it was the best sleep I've gotten in days, thank you." His words were teasing, kind of a sarcasm that meant to be funny. "Where's Matt-kun?"

He had a good feeling where he might be, but thought he should ask before making assumptions.

"I...I don't really know." Celia answered honestly, though felt slightly bad that she didn't know. "I haven't seen him since I first woke up. I...I don't think he likes me very much..." She didn't feel too nervous to say that to Shojoro, but didn't want to assume. It was hard not to, though, with how Matt had acted toward her.

{Sorry it took so long, I was making the mother of the Hamachi. Hope you like her}

"Oh he's just shy," Shojoro told her dissmissively. "Especially around pretty girls." He stood and moved to a small staircase just inside the door to the house. He knocked on the wall and put his ear to the shaft leading to the dimly lit basement. The loud clang and slide of a typewriter could be heard to continue and stop at Shojoro's knock.

"Matt, are you busy?" Shojoro called and smiled devilishly. "I need you to clear the myth that you don't like Celia." He had to tease her, as he thought he knew Matt far too well.

"That's rediculous..." Matt called back distractedly.

((Don't worry about it, and I do like her. :D))

Celia didn't really feel much better after hearing that, and she listened as Shojoro went to the staircase, hearing him and faintly hearing Matt. It still didn't make her feel much better, though. She supposed she'd just have to get over it. "Shojo, what in the world did you make? It looks like you added coffee to your sugar..."

"Oh, yeah... Matt has no cream." Shojoro couldn't help but laugh at his own strangeness. "I'm used to it around here, he drinks his stuff black. Tastes like coal and looks like it too!" He called the last part down the stairs, but got no words back. Just a 'blah' noise in response.

"So, what's on tap for today?" He asked turnning his attention to Celia. "Anything that you need?"

Celia grinned some from all Shojoro said, then just shaking her head to his question. "Nope, nothing I need. I was just hoping to kind of relax. Or figure out where we're going to stay." She didn't think they were staying with Matt for too long, and kind of hoped they weren't. Nothing against him, really, she just felt uneasy being there.

(Okayness! Night.)

Shojoro nodded. "We'll look through the paper and see if there are any good apartments. It's very possible that they canceled or are tracking my credit card though and I don't have any cash on me. We may have to stay with Matt until I can scrape something together."

The typewritter stopped, as if to listen, then immediately began typing and cut accross the bar again to begin a new line.

Celia didn't like the sound of staying with Matt much longer, but she supposed she didn't have much of a choice. It wasn't like she had money that was readily accessible, and if Shojoro didn't have money either, then they had no choice but to wait. Besides, she supposed that Shojoro probably liked being around his old friend, and she wouldn't rob Shojoro of any sort of happiness.

Shojoro's gaze fell a bit sympathetically on Celia. Striding back from the stairs, he put a stabalizing hand on her shoulder. "We'll be on our own soon Celia. I just need time."

Celia looked at Shojoro when she felt the hand on her shoulder, grinning softly at him. "I know, Shojo. I really don't mind, don't worry about it. This is far better than being on the streets. Besides...I know you two are friends, I'm glad you get to spend some time together. We're going to be together a lot after we leave, anyway."

Just then, Matt came up the stairs. He was pale and his face seemed longer than before, perhaps because his eyes were dark and his pupils were adjusting to the bright light of the kitchen.

"Matt-kun...?" Shojoro asked with an offhand sort of concern. "Are you feeling well?"

"I'm fine," Matt said quickly and calmly. "As opposed to someone who was nearly beaten to death and rode the bus in his pajamas." Shojoro grinned out of embarrassment.

Celia looked to Matt as well when he came in, also a little worried. Even if she wasn't completely fond of him herself, he was Shojoro's friend, so she didn't want him to be hurt or anything of the sort. To the last thing said, though, she grinned a faint bit herself. "So um...is there anything that either of you were planning to do today?"

"Not for me really." Shojoro told her, pondering the fact that not many people knew him and that he hadn't watched the news to fid out what was being said.

"I was..." Matt began a bit weakly. "Just planning on writing today." He filled the coffee cup he clutched for dear life in his hand and took a refreshing sip. then, wordlessly he turnned back down the stairs, followed by a worried glance from Shojoro.

"He's acting really odd today." Shojoro muttered thoughtfully as he sipped his own coffee. "Did he say anything unusual to you earlier?"

Celia shook her head some. "No, he didn't." She then paused, seeming to think. "Last night, though...I don't know if it was odd or not...but when I said that I just wanted you to be happy he got all cold. Like I had said something I shouldn't have." That seemed odd to her, but she didn't know for certain.

Shojoro seemed to sit in a pondering position. He couldn't imagine what would make Matt do that. He'd always been so friendly when someone like Celia was around. Maybe it's just the mood he was in that day. "Well, he's kind of bipolar. I don't think it's clinical but it's the only way I can think of to describe him." He still wondered what could be going on in Matt's head though...

Celia nodded a little bit. "Well...so long as he's okay." She was silent for a moment, but then looked down when she heard her stomach growl. "Do you think he'd mind if I got something to eat? It doesn't have to be big or fancy...just anything, really." She wasn't a picky eater. Usually, if she wanted to eat, she couldn't be picky. At least back when she lived downtown.
