"Ahhh, I see." Cain replied.

He was thankful that was all that had happened, he was worried that something might have gone wrong, or worse.

"Anyway, you're going to need help getting back." he said.

"And it's clear that your father isn't home." he continued.

"Want me to stop by and pick you up?" he asked.

"Bring you back so you can meet with Leo and stuff?"

"Got it." Cain responded.

"See you in a few." he told her, before the call was ended.

Sure enough, within 3 minutes, he was at their front door and used his key to get inside. He made his way to the den, seeing Lunet on the couch.

"Yo." he greeted her.

"Sorry about the awkwardness with the call earlier-" he started to say, before pausing.

"Wait..." he said.

"Did something happen?" he asked her.

"I think I see a new bruise or two..." he commented, sounding very concerned now.

"Right." Cain responded.

"Got it." he said.

Once they were close to each other, he was silent, before biting his lip slightly.

"....forgive me." he muttered.

Then, before she could ask, he lifted her up in his arms.

"Sorry." he apologised.

"This will make it easier for teleporting the both of us." he explained.

Cain felt himself blush slightly, before sighing.

"All right." he said.

"Here we go." he told her.

The two of them then disappeared in black mana, appearing back at Cain's house, in his room.

Once they were there, he set her down on the bed and turned on the light... even though it wouldn't benefit her.

"When is Leo supposed to come by?" he asked.

Cain looked at the clock once more.

"It's... almost 9 in the morning." he told her.

"I was just wondering for the sake of curiosity." he said.

He then sighed again, and shook his head.

"Well... what now?" he asked.

"Want something to eat? Or want to lay down again?"

Cain just chuckled.

"I can do that, for sure." he said.

"What kind?" he asked.

"Cinnamon, Blueberry, or Chocolate Chip?" he asked further.

"Also, do you want to see if Leo can get here earlier?" he then asked her.

"Just let me know if there's anything I can do to help." he went on.

"...also, sorry if this was because of me." he added at the end.

"....ah, right then." Cain said.

"In order." he chuckled.

"I certainly can." he answered her.

"And all right. I'll call him on your cell and see about it." he told her.

"And oh?" he asked.

"You doubt it? Why?" he asked her.

"It's entirely possible some of those mixtures combined and reacted in weird ways." he reasoned.

Cain had to hold back his instinct to comment on how cute her 'yay' was, but he succeeded.

"Right." he said.

"Which means this is even weirder." he commented.

"Hm." he mumbled.

"Anyway, I'm going to get your visor and phone and stuff, and help you downstairs." he told her.

"Set you up in the den, and get Leo here sooner, hopefully."

"......" Cain was silent for a moment.

"Oh..." he said.

"Oh geez... I... yeah, I didn't... hm?' he mumbled.

"I'll actually call him ASAP." he told her.

"Get him to come here ASAP." he went on.

"See if something can't be done."

".......yeah...." Cain mumbled.

With that, he helped her downstairs, with her stuff, before thinking a moment.

"Actually..." he said.

"I'll dial the number and you can talk to him." he told her.

"It'd be better to hear it from you directly." he went on.

"While you're doing that, I'll set to making breakfast." he continued.

With that, he dialled the number on her phone, and when Leo answered, he said Lunet needed to talk to him, and handed her the phone.

"Lunet?" Leo said when she answered.

"What's wrong?" he asked.
