-*- The Next Morning-*-
After a long night for Nate and an even harder and seemingly longer night for CD, the alarm woke them and they both sat up in bed to get ready for the day. "Do you want the bathroom to get ready I will get ready out here and start some breakfast, any requests?" Nate asked
"That would be great, breakfast um... Soft stuff in littler pieces, I don't want a repeat of last night, maybe some eggs?"
"Sure eggs and some toast coming right up" he told her giving her a smile, She headed into the bathroom and seeing the bruises on her face had to hold back ka sob, she dressed did her hair and put on some makeup trying to hide some of the bruises on her face. She then brushed and flossed her teeth and rinsed her mouth with Listerine trying to get rid of his taste. She grabbed a bottle of Tylenol off the shelf and got 2 pills out of the bottle and took them out with her. In the kitchen Nate was just finishing breakfast. She sunk down in a chair and grabbed her glass of orange juice and swallowed the pills. Nate brought over 2 plates with scrambled eggs, sliced bananas and some toast for them and sat down to eat. CD again picked at their food and only ate small bites at a time being careful to prevent herself from gagging. After they finished Nate again cleared the table and let CD rest. "How are you feeling today sweetie?" Nate asked her. "um.not that great and my body feels like it got run over by a truck, I probably look like shit too" she replied. "Nope you look beautiful." Nate said smiling at her. "Thank you but how may I ask do you figure that?" "Easy, you're here and alive." He told her picking up one of her hands and squeezing it trying to show his sincerity. "Thanks" she replied to him and she reached out to hug him pulling back a moment later. "Can we go now?" she asked. "Sure, if your ready." He said amazed at how hard she was fighting.
