A/N: Thank you for the reviews! You guys understand! I really was trying to make you feel bad for Dante, I felt bad for Dante after I read over what I wrote. Anyway, I don't know how this story is going to end. Normally I think of the ending and then write until I reach that ending but I don't know how I want this to end. Sad or happy, I'm undecided. Hope you enjoy.
CHAPTER 4
It was a relatively normal day in Fortuna. Well, as normal as it could get as Nero nursed a sick Lady back to health. It's been a total of 3 weeks since Lady left Dante and Nero no longer knew what to do. Lady was sick and Kyrie was back. He was seriously considering throwing Lady out and forcing her to go home.
Kyrie came home last week. It was hell living with the both of them. With Kyries sweet nature and Ladys bitchy attitude they clashed a lot.
Rubbing circles on her back, he waited until Lady finished throwing up unknown substances. When he was completely sure she was finished, he stood up straight and helped her up.
"Are you ok?"
"Yeah, I'm fine."
Nero highly doubted that. Ladys puking had become a constant part of her life. If she wasn't in the kitchen eating, she was either in the bathroom, sleeping, or watching a movie in the living room. He was beginning to worry about her overall health.
"Maybe you should go to the doctor. I'll set up an appointment."
"No." The reply was firm and left no room for argument. Almost like a mother scolding her child. Lady went to brush her teeth. The taste left in her mouth made her want to lean back over the toilet.
"Why?"
"Because."
Lady looked at Nero as she placed the brush back into the holder. She brushed past him and walked into her (guest) room. Nero followed her.
"That's not an answer"
He stood at her door as he watched her lay down; she was probably as tired as she looked. He leaned against the frame of the door. Nero waited until she was settled before he started again. He was hesitant.
"Why don't you go home?"
Lady closed her eyes and sighed. She knew she couldn't avoid this topic for too much longer. With Kyrie being back from her trip she knew her time with Nero wouldn't last much longer. She would have to swallow her pride and bury her hurt to go see Dante. They needed to talk.
"I will."
"When?" Nero waited patiently for an answer.
"When I get better"
"Then let me take you to the doctor, it might help you heal faster."
Ladys eyes snapped opened and her eyes narrowed at the boy. As innocent as the sentence was said, it somehow offended her.
"Are you kicking me out?"
Realizing what he said, Nero shook his head no.
"No! I didn't mean it like that. I just think you need to go home."
"So you're not kicking me out? That's not what it sounds like to me."
"Stop putting words in my mouth, I didn't say that."
"You didn't have to, it was implied."
The two glared at each other for a good minute. Sighing, Nero looked away.
"Sorry, didn't mean it that way." Ladys glare softened as she heard Neros mumble.
"Me too, I over exaggerated." Their eyes met again and they shared a smile.\
"Yeah you did you crazy psycho."
Giggling a little, Lady closed her eyes. "Whatever, kid."
Nero silently closed the door and Lady drifted into a soft slumber. Walking to the living room, he threw himself down on the couch. He had a headache. Thinking on the conversation he just had with Lady his headache grew stronger. Laying his head on the arm of the couch he decided sleep would do him some good, so he did just that.
Peace was a delicacy that was rare in the household. It became rare to find a moment of peace. Proof of his accusation was the two bickering ladies that had woken him from his sleep. Tiredly wiping the sleep from his eyes, Nero sat up and glanced at the clock. 30 minutes passed since his nap began. He was still tired. Sighing in irritation, he looked as Lady and Kyrie brought their argument to the living room. They had previously been in the kitchen.
Keeping his eyes focused on the two, he watched as Kyrie followed Lady, only stopping when Lady halted and turned in her direction. The fighting continued. Another sigh escaped his lips as he leaned back on the couch. It was as if the arguing never stopped. Nero looked from one to another as they each came up with their own witty remarks.
Nero didn't know why they were arguing (again), nor did he care. It was probably something stupid, like Ladys loose wardrobe or Kyries uptight style. That was one of their main arguments, and it never ended. Continuing to watch silently from the couch, Nero hopped he wasn't pulled into this argument. Of course, it was wishful thinking.
"Who's right Nero, me or Kyrie?"
Nero absolutely hated when he was involved in these situations. He vaguely wondered if this is how sisters would argue, or a mom and a wife who dislike each other. Nero was scared to find out. Lady would be a scary mom, he felt sorry for her kids.
"Don't bring him into this!"
Kyrie not wanting to involve Nero meant one thing, she was wrong. Fights like this made Nero realize that it wasn't the point Kyrie was arguing about, she just didn't want to lose to Lady. She could be stubborn sometimes.
"Well I'm sick of this argument! You win ok! Now get over yourself." Silence.
Kyrie and Nero stared at the brunet in shock. Lady had never given up the win to an argument.
"Lady," Kyrie sounded slightly worried. "Are you ok?"
Ignoring the question, Lady went to sit on the couch next to Nero. She noticed his shocked stare never leaving his face.
"Im fine, just a little tired."
Sharing a look of concern with Nero, Kyrie sat down on the other side of Lady. She placed a hand on Ladys forehead as she noticed Ladys eyes closed.
"Maybe we should take you to the doctor?" Worry was heavy in Neros voice.
"Shes hot." Kyrie observed.
"Lady?" Nero was starting to panic; he didn't know what to do. Shaking Lady a little to get a reaction he panic'd even more when he received none.
"She passed out. We need to get her to the hospital."
Nero quickly stood up and grabbed Ladys limp form in his arms.
"Get in the car."
A/N: I guess I will end it there; an update should be up by next week. I had a lot more to write to! It would have been like 6 pages if I kept writing. I think I like this story. lol. I'm excited to read the rest! Hope you enjoyed. :D
