"Kristopher Francis Tyler, we need to talk."
"Your middle name is Francis?" Alex asked.
"Alex... uhhggg." Riley pointed out the door.
He stood, shoved his hands in his pockets, and walked out mumbling.
"What'd I do?" Kris asked.
"Did you know that the girl Xander accidentally killed was his sister, and did you further know that not only did his brother go after him with an axe but his father ran him out of town."
"You went to see him? Are you okay?"
"Don't give me that! I can take care of myself. And don't change the subject." Riley yelled.
Kris shut his eyes. "You're right, I was wrong for saying what I did, but what do you want me to do?"
"Apologizing would be a good first step," she said. "And in the future I'd appreciate it if you'd check out all your facts before you go insulting people who have the ability and the desire to put you six feet under."
"It's pointless Riley you know what he'll say," Kris said pushing himself up in bed. "I don't need your sympathy."
"It doesn't matter, " Riley said. "And I'm giving you back your ring until you go and apologize."
"What?" Kris yelled his voice went up an octave higher.
Riley planted the ring in his big palm. "Now."
"Can't I at least wait until tomorrow or-"
"No, now! You've got an ample amount of energy, he gave you back your powers remember?"
Kris whipped off the covers and stomped to the bathroom. "Fine, fine, fine. The things I do for you." He mumbled.
"I heard that!"
