Ryota smiled, enjoying the minor victory. Obviously offering her something she needed, something so tempting, was the way to bend her. Not only that, but when presented with a stern determination to match her own she seemed to listen more clearly. /I've only known her for a few moments, and I already know how to bend her./

"Good, it rooks rike you courd use the lest... No offense." He said with a slight smile, turning back to the car. "Ret me carr my palents now, that way they know I'm coming with a guest." He turned back around and pulled out his phone, only staying on for a few moments. Trying to make the call as short as possible, he figured she needed to get to sleep soon. Eventually he hit 'end' and stuck the phone back in his pocket. "They said it was okay, come on." Ryota said, coming back to his car and unlocking the doors.

[lucy]

Silver scoffed at his observation and climbed back into his car. He was right though, she could use the rest. There had been many a time she had collapsed from sleep exhaustion, migraines, stomach pains, the whole bit. She wasn't sure what to expect though.

She saw the delight in his eyes when she had agreed to go home with him. It confused her slightly, was he really all that happy to give her a place to stay? Weird kid, he was. She put it to the back of her mind and buckled her seatbelt.

[Phantom]

Ryota blinked, buckling his seatbelt and putting the keys in the ignition. He hesitated slightly before he started the car, taking a moment to breathe. This felt weird, just a few moments ago she would argue about just about anything, and now she was being so submissive. However he shrugged it off, wasn't it a good thing that she was listening to him for once?

Looking around and checking his rear-veiw mirror he backed out of the space he was parked in. Although his car was old, thankfully it ran smoothly. He was also thankful his house wasn't very far from the park, it was about a five minute drive. Another reason he came there often. "Ale you okay?" Ryota asked, hearing her scoff before. His observation had been a little mean...

[lucy]

"Yeah, tired." she was just fucking around with his head now, as mean as it was. He had said she looked tired, might as well admit to it. Generally it would've been an easy way to say someone looked bad. She took it that way, but it was true as well.

"So, uhm..what school did you say you went to?" She wasn't sure if he had told her or not already, but she knew she wasn't going to say where she attended. He would be sure to ask her anyways.

[Phantom]

"Werr when we get to my house you can take a showel and go to sreep. We have a learry nice guest bedloom." Ryota said with a slight smile. The sad part is that it was probably the neatest part of the house. Nobody ever really went in there and they didn't have many guests anymore, it's not like he would have brought friends over before.

"I tlansfeled this year, I go to Lose Wood High. I used to go to some dingy pubric schoor. It was hollibre thele!" Ryota said, focusing on driving now. He would have asked what school she went too, since she seemed to be getting talkative now. Maybe she'd tell him herself.

[lucy]

"Oh yeah? Rosewood's a pretty fancy school, I guess." She'd keep it to herself that she went to Rosewood, he'd have to figure that one out on his own. She was a little concerned that he'd see her though because the chances were likely that he would. She would rather keep her school career and her lack there of a social life separate for the most part.

Would he even believe her that she attended Rosewood? She was surprised she had even gotten accepted, thankfully the school board has no clue about her current status as a citizen. Homeless, without shelter or a legal guardian. Yeah, that would go over well.

[Phantom]

"I've onry been on campus once, do you go thele?" Ryota asked, if she thought the school was fancy she had probably been there a few times. Although, from her current state it was unlikely she attended, the thought of it was enough to be a frown on his face. Especially if she had to go to the same crappy public school as he did.

Finally he turned onto his street, feeling slightly down on himself. All up and down the neighborhood were extremely nice houses, not to say that his family's house wasn't nice. It just simply wasn't up to par with the neighborhood. Yet, she probably wouldn't mind. Or at least he hoped she wouldn't. Finally he turned into a driveway of a one-story house, roughly medium-sized.

[lucy]

She chose to ignore his question, he would probably take it as she didn't go to a school, period. As they parked she had gotten a chance to admire the neighbourhood. It looked very well taken care of, safe. She wished she could have said the same about her house, or her former house. It was tiny, cramped and unwelcoming. The streets were unsafe and it seemed otherworldly to California's cheery disposition. That's because most had the money to live in a relatively upscale neighbourhood.

"Cute place," she commented as she got out of the car. Its not like she was in any position to complain if she wanted to. She was a guest, and being offered a place to stay somewhere was beyond selfless of Ryota.

[Phantom]

Ryota noticed that she ignored his question, it bothered him slightly but he didn't say anything about it. However the question couldn't help be arise in his head; /Does she even go to school?/ She didn't have a home, she barely ate, and she seemed relatively unfriendly unless you forced it out of her. Well, maybe he was being a little too mean...

"Thanks, I think my rittre brothel's asreep so you wirr have to be quiet." Ryota said, turning off his car and getting out. He was impatient to get inside, but then again he was usually always impatient, wasn't he? But he was honestly hoping his hospitality and a good nights sleep would make her more pleasant to be around. But he didn't get his hopes up.

[lucy]

Silver nodded her head in understanding, "Alright." she waited for him to start walking to the front door before she followed. Silver was nervous about all this, but really was just hoping to get some sleep.

She partly didn't sleep because she would have horrible dreams. Dreams about her family and what her school peers said about her. It would be relentless, she wouldn't be able to just block out their words and actions like she could outside of a dream. It was always the same dream, and she hadn't had any other for a very long time.

[Phantom]

Ryota nodded, walking towards the front door. He stood there for a moment, hesitating before digging around for his keys and finally opening his door. He was glad when it seemed no one was in the main room. His mother was likely preoccupied with getting his little brother to sleep, and his father had probably already left for work.

"If you want to take a showel, the bathloom is in thele." He said, pointing to a room down a hall to the right. On the outside the house looked relatively small compared to the others, but on the inside it was big. The living room and kitchen were one room, although there was certainly space for both. As it transferred to the kitchen the tile cut off and was replaced with hardwood. From those rooms were two hallways, going off on either side. One had the bathroom, a big walk-in closet and laundry room, and the guest bedroom. The other had the main bedroom's and a smaller closet. Home, sweet, home.

[lucy]

She followed him inside, taking in her surrounds before taking off her shoes and setting them aside. "Yeah, I uhm..better shower. I'm gross and I'd rather not be introduced to your parents all disgusting like this." she smiled a little before walking down the hall and into the bathroom.

She locked the door behind her and avoided looking at her reflection in the mirror. She refused to see how awful her appearance was right now. Silver swiftly undressed, easily figuring out how to turn on the shower.

[Phantom]

Ryota chuckled at her observation, staying in the main room while she went into the bathroom. He might as well do something entertaining... TV maybe? Taking it into consideration he paused for a moment, considering other options. /Nope, TV's best./ Came his conclusion. Grabbing the remote off of the coffee table he turned the TV on, sitting on the couch.

Idly, he flipped through the channels. Not really settling on anything, not until he found Comedy Central and Futurama was on. This would amuse him for awhile, and from the quick schedule before the show it seemed it was a marathon, awesome.

[lucy]

She sighed softly as she tried to figure out what was what in the shower. It took her a moment to come to the conclusion of what bottle was what before she actually got to washing her hair out. She could hear the hum of the television in the other room through the rush of water from the shower.

Silver was struggling to keep her eyes open when she had finished her shower, the warm water lulling her into a warm sleepy feeling, beating away the exhaustion and replacing it with a sense of security. She quickly dried herself off and threw her clothes back on before walking back down the hall and into the main room. She smiled a little at Ryota and crossed the room to sit down beside him. "Hey,"

[Phantom]

Ryota smiled as Silver smiled a little at him, and even more so as she sat next to him. Was it just him or, did she look kind of pretty now that she was all cleaned up? "Hey, did you enjoy youl shower?" He asked, chuckling a bit. Now he knew that she had to smell good, this was one of those moments where he wished that he could use his nose again. /Keep dreaming./ Came the reply to his own wish.

Now that he looked over her again, he knew he was right. If you got past the fact that you could see every single one of her bones... She was really pretty. "...I don't know if anyone's tord you this before, but you rook learry pletty." Ryota said with a smile, flirting with her ever-so-slightly. Just because she was being friendly now doesn't mean that she might snap back.
