Caylex woke up in the alley Nico left him in, his cell phone ringing loudly in his pocket. He had no idea how he got there, or anything after they left the bar. He touched his fingers to his neck, which was a little sore. He shivered harder then before, his lip very pale. "Why..." He murmured softly to no one in peticular as he stood. He pulled his cell phone from his pocket, the ringing stopped.
10 calls missed.

"How long have I been here...?" He tought to himself.

All from his room mate's cell phone.
"Why can't I remember what happened..." He racks his brain for reasons... for some kinda of excuse to his absence of memories.

Clarity was in a rush home from her job. She didn't usually cut through the alleyways but time was at the essence, she had to babysit for her sister or be kicked out of the apartment. Her patched jacket fluttered out behind her, her short hair drenched in sweat, a single bandage covered her nose.

A figure in the alley caught her eye. She wouldn't have stopped if she had seen a bum on the street. This guy was definately different, he was at least clean. He seem dazed and confused. Forgetting all she learned about strangers on the streets. She turned to help him.

Maybe he was a heavy drinker just like her...

Caylex puts his cell phone back in his pocket and tugged the sleeves of his trench coat back down. (He is wearing the things in the picture.)) He covers his neck where the pain is with his hand when he see's Clarity is coming towards him.

Clare stopped a clear seven steps in front of Caylex. Sudden unsure of what to say or do.

"Um... are you alright? I saw you... You looked... Is there anything I can do to help?"

Caylex blinks a few times. "Huh... Oh... Yeah... I guess...." He wraps his arms around himself. "Where am I?" He shakes his head lightly. "I don't remember anything after leaving the club.... with Nico...."

"Nico? Hey I think I know him..."

She moves in closer and tries to look into Caylex's eyes for any signs of him being drunk.

"Did you have much to drink at the club?"

"Half a glass of Cola..." His eyes, jet black, glisten back at her. He leans back against a wall, really tired, even after sleeping all day.

Clarity raised her eyebrow. She was very skepticle about this answer.

"Ok bud, now which way would I have to go to bring you home and how far is it from here?"

"I wasn't drinking." He closes his eyes. "No, you don't have to bring me home. I'm fine..." He looks ill as far as Clarity can see, almost to the point where he is about to pass out again.

Clare crossed her arms, she didn't like being brushed aside like that.

"Ok... Let me put it this way. You can't walk, you can barely talk, and you're about to fall over. I'm going to help you no matter what you say. Now point to a direction, preferly towards your home or something resembling a shelter!"

Caylex shakes his head. "You have an attitude problem..." He murmurs half-heartedly. "I live in the appartments... that way..." He points in the direction his home is in.

Clare grinned at the attitude remark. "You've noticed."

She moved to his side and attempted to help prop him up. "Shall we?" She said as she gestured to the direction he pointed.

Caylex nods and lets her help him, shivering still. "Let's shall..."

((I started a new topic for when they reach his house in the appartments board. o.o; ^_^ ))

They started walking towards the direction Caylex pointed. Well, shuffling was more like the correct term. Clare staggered under Caylex's weight. She decided to make small talk to pass the time.

"Didn't quite catch your name." She said between grunts of effort.

Caylex leans on her less, shivering softly. "Caylex... Your's?"

"It's Clare. Caylex now thats a strange name, did your parents have something against you?" She smirked.

Caylex ignores that comment. "This way." He walks up a set of steps once they reach his appartment and head into the building. ((Go over to the other topic now please. ^_^' ))
