Addison nodded in response.
"All right." he replied.
"...." he was then silent, and sighed, as he laid back and stared at the ceiling.
"So." he said.
"How long until I can be up and about again?" he asked her.

"Probably just another day or two." Emelie answered with a soft smile.
"I'm not entirely sure how long, but it shouldn't be too long. It'll either be 12 hours, or could be all the way to 72 hours." She answered.
"Also, you have no need to fear Anna's ire at you." She then added after a few seconds. "Anna has no ire toward you. It's purely toward Ash for telling Lily where you were."
"Well, THAT'S a reli-" Addison started to say, before pausing mid-sentence.
"Wait..." he muttered.
"Anna... knows... and..." he mumbled further, before shaking his head heavily.
"Right." he said further.
"So when is his funeral?" he asked her.
"Wait..." he muttered.
"Anna... knows... and..." he mumbled further, before shaking his head heavily.
"Right." he said further.
"So when is his funeral?" he asked her.
"Not coming now." Emelie stated.
"Do you think I'd let Anna kill Ash?" She asked.
"It's not his time." She added with a small smile. She knew that Addison was very much aware of what she could do, but not exactly WHY she could do them.
".....uh-huh." Addison mumbled.
"I WILL find out why you can do what you do." he told her.
"And I KNOW that others know." he said.
"Mother is of NO help, as she always dodges the question, and you do as well." he went on.
"Ash won't say anything, and neither will Sydney." he continued.
"But I WILL find out one day." he vowed to her.
"I swear to God, I will."
"I WILL find out why you can do what you do." he told her.
"And I KNOW that others know." he said.
"Mother is of NO help, as she always dodges the question, and you do as well." he went on.
"Ash won't say anything, and neither will Sydney." he continued.
"But I WILL find out one day." he vowed to her.
"I swear to God, I will."
When Addison said his last bit, Emelie just laughed.
"I'm sorry... I shouldn't be laughing so much at that." She stated.
"It's just a turn of phrase I always find comical, that is all."
"Now, they are sworn to secrecy. You will not find out through any of them, I am sorry."
"....hmph!" Addison grunted.
"Like I said." he said.
"I WILL find out, on my own." he told her.
"....not right now, though." he then mumbled.
"Feeling weak and tired..."
"Like I said." he said.
"I WILL find out, on my own." he told her.
"....not right now, though." he then mumbled.
"Feeling weak and tired..."
"That doesn't surprise me." Emelie then said.
"You did take quite a beating." She added.
"Now, rest up. You'll see Lily later." She then said with a smile before heading off,
Addison watched her go, and then sighed.
"Mph." he grunted, before closing his eyes and falling asleep.
After some time, he woke up again, and didn't know for how long he was asleep.
"Hm." he muttered.
'Lily!' he thought.
He then quickly looked in the direction of her bed, to see if she was still there or not.
"Mph." he grunted, before closing his eyes and falling asleep.
After some time, he woke up again, and didn't know for how long he was asleep.
"Hm." he muttered.
'Lily!' he thought.
He then quickly looked in the direction of her bed, to see if she was still there or not.
When he looked over, he saw that Lilyw was still there, She was up and reading something though. As Addison watched her, he saw that her left hand was twitching a bit. He'd never noticed that from her before though, and had no idea what the cause was.
Although, it wasn't something that was too surprising. Well, not to those that knew her better than Addison did.
It was a b it concerning though, until you took into consideration what it was that she'd gone through.
'....eh?' Addison thought.
'Wonder what's up with that...?' he wondered internally.
'Eh, question for later.' he then reasoned.
He then sat up a little, propping himself against the head of the bed.
"Hey." he said.
"Lily." he addressed her.
"Good to see you're awake."
'Wonder what's up with that...?' he wondered internally.
'Eh, question for later.' he then reasoned.
He then sat up a little, propping himself against the head of the bed.
"Hey." he said.
"Lily." he addressed her.
"Good to see you're awake."
Lily looked over before chuckling.
"Good to see you survived." She commented, her voice not quite as level as it had been any other time he'd spoken with her. She didn't sound compeltely nuts or anything, but there was a certain something to her voice that was almosat putting him on edge.
"I wasn't entirely sure you would, to be honest."
Addison was silent, and sighed.
"Mmm." he mumbled.
"Yeah..." he said.
"That was... a harrowing experience." he commented.
"....thank you, by the way." he then said further.
"For saving me, that is." he clarified.
"Mmm." he mumbled.
"Yeah..." he said.
"That was... a harrowing experience." he commented.
"....thank you, by the way." he then said further.
"For saving me, that is." he clarified.
"Least I could do." Lily commented with a shrug.
"Emelie is sayin' I can likely go home today, and that you can too. Although technically you are home, really." She added after a moment or two.
"So yay?"
"That's good." Addison replied.
"Um... hey..." he then muttered.
"There anything I can do to... y'know... repay you?" he asked.
"Like... I dunno... maybe... go out for dinner or something?" he offered.
"Go someplace you like, but can't really get into for whatever reason?" he continued.
"I can try and use what connections I have."
"Um... hey..." he then muttered.
"There anything I can do to... y'know... repay you?" he asked.
"Like... I dunno... maybe... go out for dinner or something?" he offered.
"Go someplace you like, but can't really get into for whatever reason?" he continued.
"I can try and use what connections I have."
Lily shrugged before smirking.
"Kelly works in one of the best restaurants in Italy," she stated.
"Let's get into there for dinner." She stated.
"She refuses to get me a reservation, so ... how about you give it a try?" She asked
Addison thought for a moment, and nodded.
"All right." he said.
"I'll get us that reservation." he told her.
"I promise ya that." he said further.
He then paused for a moment, and thought about it.
"Um... hm." he mumbled.
"I... think I might have to speak with Ash about that." he told her.
"Which means... I'm definitely waiting for a bit..." he added ominously.
"All right." he said.
"I'll get us that reservation." he told her.
"I promise ya that." he said further.
He then paused for a moment, and thought about it.
"Um... hm." he mumbled.
"I... think I might have to speak with Ash about that." he told her.
"Which means... I'm definitely waiting for a bit..." he added ominously.
Lily sighed as she closed the book she'd been reading.
"Chances are Mom's having fun with him." She commented, seeming to know what it was that could be done. She had quite a handle on her parents mentalities, and she knew that neither of them would like that Ash gave her the information that led to this position.
"Because I'm willing to bet that Ash was smart enough to not hide the information from Mom about what happened to me."
"Yeah..." Addison replied.
"So... hm." he muttered.
"Not sure what'll be left of him." he admitted.
"But I shouldn't bother him with this until later." he said further.
"I've heard scary things about your Mother." he then told her.
"So... hm." he muttered.
"Not sure what'll be left of him." he admitted.
"But I shouldn't bother him with this until later." he said further.
"I've heard scary things about your Mother." he then told her.
"There is no shame in deterrence. Having a weapon is very different from actually using it." - Ghandi
"Yup. Mom's... not one to cross when pissed." Lily agreed.
"And once I'm cleared to get out of here, I'll probably be going to try and get her to stop beating on Ash. Assuming she still is. I dunno how long I've been here, so she may have cooled down by now."
