Chapter 7, Hope all who read enjoy what I'm cooking up! Though I warn you all that for plot reasons there will be slight errors in grammar and spelling during the dialogue in the end to simulate the situation they're in. Nothing major though as words are easily recognizable with only one letter changed or one letter repeated.
Wooosh, was the sound of the air that passed the boy's face. His knees tucked into his chest and his body curled up into a ball. Next extending out again with a kick as he flew into the air and landed on a nearby building. Taking off the mask and flopping onto his rear end while letting his posture calm down and relax truly. A big smile on his face as he looked up at the light blue sky with the hazel eyes he possessed, laughter leaving his lips as he leaned on his arms he positioned behind him. "Heh Heh... Like, wow, that was... That was incredible!" he shouted as he let his torso drop onto his back and rested right there, so calm and peaceful after the excitement he just faced.
His heart beat just settling down after that thrill of a rush before his eyes bulged open almost like that of a cartoon character. "Oh crap! I gotta get back!" he said while jumping to his feet and grabbing his mask as he whipped it on and with a THWIP he was off again.
Swinging as fast as he could, zipping above the crowds of kids and towards the back of the school, landing quitely on the roof while he crawled back down and in through the bathroom window. Looking around the area to make sure he was the only one in the room, he silently made his way to the top corner where he had placed his clothes in a makeshift web bag. Dropping to the floor in a stall as he started to redress in the clothes he wore to school today, a small smile to himself as he said "I surely didn't miss this part of the job...". Looking in the mirror to make sure none of his suit had stuck out in the hoodie's collar and/or the pants he wore. Finally seeing his self in good enough condition to leave he jumped to the window and snuck right back out of it into the crowd and began looking for the others.
Everyone Else
"Hey, have any of you seen a kid with long brown hair? He's about this tall and had on a blue hoodie." Jean had asked only for the group of friends to answer back with the shaking of their heads. A sigh leaving her mouth as she thanked them and walked the other way, the rest seeing her comeback alone. "No luck huh?" asked Evan, hands in his pockets as she nodded her head and the group all had a collective sigh. "Where could Pete have gone?" asked Kurt with Kitty giving him a shrug as Scott questioned Jean about the search.
"You still couldn't pick him up 'mentally'?" and she shrugged back "I couldn't get a read on him after the whole Spider-Man business had settled down.". "Maybe try again, never know it may work this time?" Kurt suggested and at that moment the boy in question asked them "Maybe what'll work?". The rest turning to the direction of his voice and there he was squeezing his way through a few kids. "Yo Peter, what happened to you man? We've been looking for you!" shouted Evan as the boy rubbed the back of his neck and thought to himself "gotta think fast!".
"You see, I saw that crazy guy come in and left a trail of bodies behind him. So, I rushed over to check if they were okay and before I could get back to you all, the remaining staff were evacuating everyone out that they could. And, with no way back in I had searched for some help!". The others listening to his story before Kitty interjected "So like, were you the one who got Spidey down here??" and Peter replied as if he hadn't known. Playing his part to the best of his ability as he asked "Wait, Spider-Man was here??" he exclaimed. Kurt joining in on the conversation "Yeah! The dude was pretty awesome!".
"But what happened to the lunchroom?" Peter asked the group and Rouge answered "They battle was a crazy one..." the brunette boy shrugging as he replied "And I missed the whole thing?". The rest also replying with almost a single yep in unison.
"Well I'm not surprised, everything happens when you aren't around..." Peter had joked as he stuck his hands in his hoodie's pockets. Evan put a hand on his shoulder and gave him a friendly pat "Maybe next time.". Peter giving a single nod and then moving on to asking about the people in his friend group. Checking to see if they were alright and everyone had agreed that they were fine. Looking towards what was the School's lunchroom as Kurt lightly elbowed his side and joked "Crazy first day huh?". "You can say that again." Peter replied as he just stared at the damage that was left, it wasn't anything pretty and he surely didn't want it to end the way it did. But, it was the best he could come up with, just keep throwing obstacles in the guys way til someone like the Avengers or Shield got here.
He didn't expect for him to eventually just let the shield down the way he did but it was definitely exactly what he needed. The fight was able to be done and over with much sooner and he was able to do it on his own, a few hiccups along the way but overall he was happy with the result. No one was hurt and he left the weirdo incapacitated for the police to take him in for custody. then there's no doubt Shield will come and the guy will be locked up somewhere, and where ever he ends up he'll be under watch. Carefully kept under lockdown and unable to hurt anyone, so there were more wins then losses today.
"Everyone settle down, settle down!" Shouted the principal among the crowds of gossipping students and loud Police sirens from the law enforcement that had just arrived. "You may all call your parents for an emergency dismissal and those who are waiting for their belongings may retrieve your items from the lockers now that its been confirmed safe enough to enter.". And, with that the kids all casually walked in and headed towards the lockers. Opening the metal doors and grabbing their stuff as men from countless working backgrounds were practically watching the groups that came in. The cars of parents rushing to the school were filling up by the minute as adults came to hug and check in on their children while our group of young powered kids were beginning to make their way home.
"So Pete, how are you gonna get back to the mansion?" Scott asked his friend, the brunette boy reached into his pocket as he pulled out his cellular device. "Same way I got here, I'll just walk." he replied with a joyful tone, and even when they offered again he just continued to decline. Kind words were then exchanged as Scott got behind the wheel and they drove off, Peter waving to his friends as they got down the road before he turned around and ran down an alley way.
In a light jog he grabbed the mask from the pockets in his tights, pulling the red fabric over his hair and on his face as he slapped on two silver and shiny wrist bands as well. Finishing up with his red gloves as he jumped to the side of a building and then leaped over the adjacent one and took off into the afternoon's skies. Landing down and going into a full sprint he lunged over the side of the building and grabbed onto a flag pole as he swung around the metal rod, letting go and sending himself forward as the sound of his webs was met with a swing.
His body twisting and turning as he moved from one arm to the next, in rapid session moving on down the road from a bird's eye view. The biggest smile under his mask as he turned a corner and landed on the side of a building acrobatics on display while monuvoring through its fire escape. Landing on it's railing and leaping forward, shooting two lines and zipping with two hands above a nearby roof when he was met with a man. This man's dark skin and one eye patch covering what looked to be a battle scar were noticable features.
Peter stopped right there and took off his mask as if he had seen a ghost and the whole scene went silent. "Afternoon Spider-Man." the head of shield said to the young Parker boy with a smile. "What are you doing here Fury?" the boy asked with the upmost confusion "How'd you even get here??" he said after a second of thought. "Boy, it's my job to do these things, you know the deal." Fury had replied, stepping forward to give Peter a handshake as he started light conversation. "I see you're donning the costume again." he noted, a tone that seemed more happier than usual for the older man. Peter hesitated to grab his hand, almost like it was instinct as he avoided eye contact. Seeing as the young hero didn't take the gesture, he went instead to set his hand on Peter's shoulder before it was shrugged off and the boy took a step back.
A sigh leaving his mouth "I'm, sorry about Ms. Stacy." he commented before Peter looked up at the man with a face that held some buried silent anger. "You've already said this..." "I know." replied the man. "...And I didn't want your apology then." Parker retorted as he stood straight up and looked at this surprise visitor dead in his eye. "And I told you before... You gave me a promise Fury, a promise that you should be apologizing to the Stacies for, not me." Fury gave a nod as he had nothing more to say on the matter and the atmosphere shifted, turning bitter as the tension grew.
"In fact, if it's all good with you I rather not talk about this right now." Peter demanded, and Fury gave him the respect of letting the situation go "I understand kid.". Parker walked over to the edge of the building and clasped his hands as he leaned on the frame. Silently looking out to the streets below as the common people walked by and continued on with their daily lives. The head of Shield walking over to the boy and standing on his right beside him. "you don't come to give simple 'hellos' and catch up, what do you want?" Peter asked, failing at hiding the underlying emotions that hid under the surface of his skin. "You know the deal, I gotta check in and question every super involved in the recent attack on Bayville High. And you, were an involved super." he said as he reached over his shoulder and tapped the earpiece he wore while looking down at the boy.
Peter giving a sigh as he looked up at the older guy and answered his question "I was nearby, and came rushing in the moment trouble started up. Fought the guy but he had some form of a shield and ended up being a lot more damage to the school then intended.". Fury looking down at the kid as he stared back towards the streets. "I wouldn't sweat it kid, just adds one more thing to Damage Control's plate. But, the thing is the medics that received this Unus guy said he's got a little bruising between the eyes with a broken nose. Guess you got past the shield to deliver an ass kicking huh?". Peter giving the slightest chuckle as he replied "I suppose I did...". Fury commented "On normal circumstances I'd just chalk this up to be handled by the people who gets paid for this crap. But, with his power set and you being involved I had to investigate."
Parker looked at him, the man who came to greet him as he stared back down to the roads. "Well is this 'investigation" over?" he asked as the Director just nodded and gave a simple yes. So, with that Peter had enough of the conversation as he then put the mask back on and put a foot on the edge and looked back. "Yeah kid, that's all." the one eyed man told this young man, a gentle smirk as he pointed at him and said "You take it easy Spider-Man.". The boy looking down to the roof and then back towards the rocky ally of his "Yeah... yeah you too Fury." he replied. A small smile on the director's face as he then dissipated and a drone was left that flew off into the sky, Peter shaking his head at the sight and commenting "Well that explains a lot.". Then the boy leaped off and finished swinging towards his new home.
Shield Helicarrier
Fury standing on a pad as the drone in front of him had headed off after completing it's objective. The head director rubbing his eyes as he turned around and a redheaded woman, Natasha Romanov, wasted no time asking questions "So, the kid-" Fury putting up a hand as he just walked past "Yeah yeah, he checks up. Story lines up with everyone else.". The famous Tony Stark jumping into the conversation with his usual upbeat tone "See I told ya, the boy's fine he just swooped down, and did the best he could manage. No one was hurt.". "Yeah, except for the wallets of whichever fat cat has to fund the rebuilding of the cafeteria." commented their archer Hawkeye. "That or the taxes." joked Mr. Stark, smiling as he headed over towards the table and grabbed up his coffee. Natasha feeling the need to comment "He's a kid Tony. A kid with no formal training as well, could've gotten someone hurt-" "Hey, but he didn't. I say let him do his thing, see where it goes. I'll pay for the damage this time.~" he simply said while messing around with his shades. Nick just sighing as he was deep in thought.
Xavier's Mansion
A few minutes later Peter then came through the door and looked around as he said "Hey, I'm home!". Finding himself still alone as a chorus of greetings were shouted to the hallway, and followed by them came Kurt in a puff of odd smelling smoke. Peter fanning his nose as he coughed and the blue haired boy apologized "Oh, sorry my friend. Just came to tell you we're watching a news story on what happened at school, they got footage of Spider-Man if you wanna see??" he asked. "Oh, uh sure I'll be right there in a sec.". And with that Kurt teleported again and left Peter with a face full of black and navy blue smoke, followed by a nice flash of light as well. Peter coughed again as he just headed upstairs and went to his bedroom, closing the door behind him and with a swift movement he tossed his backpack onto his bed and off came his hoodie.
Gently setting the piece of clothing onto the coat rack exactly where it was before he left for school. Next walking to the center of the room and looking into the mirror as he brushed his hair out of his face. Looking upon his reflection as he stretched one side and then the other before being slightly startled by the ringing of his phone. Grabbing the object and answering the call with a hello as a concerned yet loving voice practically burst his eardrums upon the usage of her enthusiasm.
"OH MY GOD PETER, ARE YOU ALRIGHT?! I JUST SAW THE NEWS AND I GOT SO WORRIED, I-I-" his Aunt May had shouted into the phone. Her nephew in dismay as the closest eye was shut and he screamed in slight pain, ever since the bite his senses have been pretty acute. Her voice was rather painful at the volume for him as she replied "Oh I'm sorry, I just... Are you okay Peter?? do you need me to pick you up??". "What, no no Aunt May I'm fine. The whole situation happened while I was outside." he had lied, he didn't need her to worry. "Oh thank god, I didn't know what I was gonna do if you were hurt or didn't answer... Maybe I should pick you up??" she had said in just about the most calm voice she tried to muster. Peter placing the phone on his shoulder while he used his cheek to keep it in place. "I'm fine Aunt May, me and all my friends all left without a scratch." he reassured her. May letting out a sigh that could be heard through the phone as he awaited her to say something "I heard Spider-Man was involved." she finally said.
The words taking Peter by surprised as she continued "You sure you weren't taking pictures of him?" she asked and the boy said no. "I haven't taken pictures of him in weeks..." was all he replied with before she had interrupted "I know, but he was sooo close... And, I didn't need you putting yourself in harm's way Peter.". The boy gave a sigh as he told her again that he didn't take any, that the thought didn't even cross his mind as he only looked for help when everything went down. "Okay." she said to him, and the conversation had went silent for a moment. Peter trying to make the call a much happier one thought up an idea. "So Aunt May, how about we have our movie night Friday? I can help you bake my mom's amazing cookies!~" he said with such an enthusiatic tone. A laugh leaving his Aunt's side of the call as she loved the idea. "Oh we haven't had any of those in awhile~... Oh! If you want, maybe we can invite your friends over to enjoy the food.".
"Oh that'll be great, just... one thing though..." he said. Aunt May had a questioned look as she asked "And, what would that be?". "Just, don't go showing my baby pictures this time, please for the love of god!" he asked of her with an infasist on please. "Oh!" May said with a laugh as she finished her statement "I thought they were adorable!~". "Maybe, but of all people you had to show them to, why Mary-Jane??" The boy questioned her on this. "Oh Peter, she loved them~..." was all she could say before she simply laughed in return. A rise in his worrying as she finally answered that no, she won't show anyone. A sigh of relief leaving Peter's mouth as they said their goodbyes and hung up. Next Peter finished undressing and changed into a shirt with shorts as he headed down the stairs and came into the livingroom. "So, what was it about the Spider-Man news thing?" Peter asked on his way in and was met with a comment from Rogue "Took ya long enough!". Peter chuckled "Heh, yeah I had to talk with my Aunt, she was worried after school.". "Hey that's alright, we're waiting for Kitty anyway." said Scott and almost as if on cue came the sound of Katherine's voice.
"Like, can't you just spend sometime with us??..." questioned Pryde while the two came walking inside of the livingroom. The person she's talking to was revealed to be none other then the raven haired girl. Walking past the petite brunette as she headed towards the fridge, opening the door and grabbing a cold water bottle. When she closed the fridge she was met with Kitty standing right there and she looked down at that little girl while opening her beverage.
"Like, all you do is walk the yards and skulk alone, you know?" Kitty brought up to her, and the girl didn't so much as flinch. She really didn't care too much about what Kitty had said for what kitty just said the most part. She had her reasons and those weren't anyone's business either. "I already-" she broke her sentence with a yawn said "no."
Her irritated reply to the brunette with the pony tail, slowly walking past the girl as she tried to stop her, some of the others even interjecting as well and offering her a place to sit. But, the girl wasn't really much for socialization in fact right now she wasn't up for much at the moment as she yawned. It made her feel weird when she had no clue on how to hold a regular conversation or when her sense of humor didn't match much anyone else.
She did deep down like the gesture, anyone could see it in her slight hesitation after everyone offered for her to stay. Though this still didn't stop her from just leaving the others as she headed on for the garden again without a word for them. Everyone watching her leave as Peter asked "So, what's up?". "Well you see, she just spends a lot of the days and nights outside or in the Danger Room. Sometimes even avoiding any sleep."
Jean answered the boy "She rarely spends time with anyone besides Kitty, and even that's cause she kinda forces herself on her.". The girl walking back over to the group as she took her seat and gave a sigh "Professor like, wanted me to try and chat with her every once and awhile. So I just try to give her a chance to ease up and become a little friendlier you know?" Pryde commented "She's often all alone and it's kinda sad.". "Yeah, she can be a little cranky pretty often too..." Kurt said as he leaned on the back of the couch. Peter thought about this as Scott prepared the tv towards the news coverage story and remarked "It may be for the best to give her all the time she needs to get comfortable with us...".
Turning on the news as it wasted no time showing the display of amateur footage of the fight from earlier. Everyone's attention slowly began to focus more on the TV as the scene fades to darkness and the teens watched it in Silence.
In a Dark Room
The scene had little to no light, and slowly lit up to show the scenery of what looked to be a familiar house to a certain redhead that Peter has known for a while now. The boy waking up and perched on a street lamp as the darkness hid all other surroundings, Peter rubbing his head as he grunted and squinted his eyes.
"PETER!!!" shouted a feminine teenage voice that woke the boy from his daze, staring at the house as it suddenly started to shine brightly from the inside, a fire building up in the window. The hero leaped from the street lamp directly in through the clear opening and he landed with a roll already dressed in his Spidey gear as he shouted "Mary-Jane!! Where are you Mary-Jane???". There was no answer. Peter rushed up the stairs as he came crashing through the girl's bedroom and found himself at a sight he didn't want to see. The young and beautiful redhead was flailing around, arms weakly grabbing at the scaly and tough fingers around her throat. Gasp of air inbetween each movement her body made. Feet kicking at the man's stomach with no affect as each hit that landed had lost all momentum and force the moment it came into contact with his body. Like she was desperately fighting against a force and was losing by a landslide. Tears running down her face as her make up was smeared and gave her the look of a dead woman walking while her clothes was worse for wear.
"Nice of you to join Spider, can I get ya anything?" a high pitched voice asked him, an exhilaration to his tone as he squeezed the girl's neck. Peter immediately posed his hands infront of him as he squeezed down with his middle and index finger, but all that came was a fizzle.
Seeing that his webs wouldn't be of use he decided to make a move but found his feet stuck in place, unable to leap or take a step as he looked on. The man's slender green fingers loosening up its grip around the girl's neck as she tried for air and then when she struggled to breath he squeezed harder and she squealed. He was having a blast as he let her go and she fell to the floor with a thud, rubbing her neck as the bruises were vivid and clear. Her hand reaching out towards Peter before suddenly she was pulled back into the darkness and with her screams Peter shouted in return. "Mary-Jaaaane!!!" the last words he exclaimed before waking up in a pool of sweat and anguish. His eyes searched the surroundings and he found himself back in his new bedroom, warm sheets and a soft mattress under him as he struggled for a good night's sleep.
His hands moved up to rub his face while he stepped out of bed and walked over to the mirror as he looked at himself through the strands of hair and the moon's glow being the only light. "I need some air." he told himself, sluggishly rubbing his eye as he opened the window to his room and looked around, while deep in thought about his grand adventure today. The sounds of the crowd that cheered filled his ears as he held a genuine and gentle smile while Fury's words playing over in his head.
"I see you're donning the costume again."
a silence as he questioned himself in his head "Am I? I mean it's one thing to just help when you're there I guess... After all I was just protecting my friends... and the kids... and the staff... and the neighborhood..." Peter tried to rationalize with himself. "Who am I kidding, it felt... well, GOOD to be Spider-Man. That rush with the wind in my face, the satisfaction of people's faces, the lack of guilt!...". He slumped over and looked down towards the bed he got out of, spots of his sweat visible as the nightmare on his suit's repercussions reminded him of why he stopped.
"I need something to occupy my mind..." he spoke as he looked down towards the ground and something caught his eye, or perhaps someone. It was that same girl, the one with the all black outfit and her raven hair, silky and shiny in the moonlight while she strolled through the open space. Walking around the yard at this time of morning was odd for anyone, and usually led to something that could perhaps help Peter with his over arching branch of thoughts at the moment.
Contemplating on his next move he decided to try and see if he could find out what was bothering her, he needed something to take his mind somewhere else. So, he got to grabbing a pair of joggers and some shoes. Stripping down in a hurry as he yanked on the pants and socks before finally finishing with the shoes. Backflipping onto the frame of his window and then out he went as he landed a few meters behind her. The girl's ear having a slight twitch as she quickly swiveled on the spot ready, suddenly finding it was only the Parker kid. A groan from the back of her throat as she turned back towards the direction she was originally heading.
"Hey, what ya doing up so early for? Or what are you up so late for? I guess it depends on if you went to sleep at all this night?" he commented, getting so much as nothing but the usual silence. "So the silent treatment, I guess that's fair. Mind if I walk with you?" he asked as he jogged up to beside her. The girl looking to him as she felt a yawn coming up yet forced it down and kept sluggishly walking. "I guess that isn't a no..." Peter replied while walking next to this odd girl, her eyes looked half way open as she walked aimlessly. Her lack of cracking just left Parker to take in the scenery, it was his first time actually taking a look of the place. And, needless to say it was surprisingly gorgeous once the pale light of the early skies casted its rays on the lime green hedges. The grass both soft and welcoming to anyone who wanted to rest upon its surface, Peter checking out the texture as he kneeled down and rubbed a hand through it before catching up to her. "It looks pretty nice out here." Peter commented with nothing but a irritated and tired glance in return "Is that why you come out here? To enjoy the scenery?". She just looked at the boy again and found herself just rolling her eyes as she continued on.
"Sooo, that's not it then." Peter said as he continued to walk next to her, the girl stopping for a second as she questioned the boy "What are you doing?". "Uh, just walking with you, making conversation?" he replied as she squinted her eyes and went to continue what she always does, that was before she tripped over her own feet. Her body jerked as she struggled to maintain and improve her balance. "Woah you alrig-" he tried to ask but the girl wasn't happy at all for such a careless mistake.
"I'm fine!" she shouted, the boy reached out a hand only for her to jerk her shoulder away and brushed herself off, guess she didn't like being touched. "Hey, when's the last time you had some sleep?" Peter asked. Noticing her half conscious look, eyes heavy and her movements sluggish, and a shorter temper if that was even possible. The girl avoiding the question as she continued to brush herself off when she was already clean. "Something tells me you're a 'late' gal?" he joked. She didn't think it was funny. "As if it wasn't awkward enough..." Peter scolded himself, only just put the the thing on once and he already is having to catch Spider-Man's quips slipping outta his mouth.
The scene was silent, and the girl hesitated with any words even though she knew the answer, it was a simple one after all. Looking at the boy as he stared back she stubbornly answered "Past week.".
"Oh..." and that was all there was really left to say, Her eyes looking towards the door as she yawned and then off she went back inside with Peter not too far behind. Walking over towards the couch as she then plopped onto it and gave a groan while he stood there watching her. Making his way to the kitchen he asked her if she needed anything and she replied no. "Well at least you answered." he joked and she scoffed in reply. Finding it hard to fight some much needed rest, slapping herself across the face as she hopped in place on the couch a little. Peter walking over and sitting down on the cushion next to her's as he decided to keep prying a little, see if he could actually get somewhere with a talk. "If I may ask, why don't you sleep?" he said as she yawned and tried to form a reply, hoping that all his talking would keep her up "That's... My business.".
Peter shrugging as he continued "Yeah, but I just ask cause I had a friend who did that. Except in his case he would stress himself too much to get a single bit of rest. His father was very demanding, kept asking for more of him whenever he felt like it.". "Look... P-parker, just get to the point." she demanded as she started to lean on her palms, resting her elbows on her knee caps.
"You assume- stress-" sighing as she began to become irritated with her state "you assume... that I'm stressed?...". "No, well... I just used that example cause I believe maybe you have a lot on your mind? After all I would know a thing or two about that." he joked and she rolled her eyes as she pinched her leg. She hoped the pain would keep her awake for awhile, at least til this boy was done and left.
"But, well I guess I'm just trying to help in anyway I can, it's the least..." he stopped for a yawn "I can do." her eyes drifting over to Peter. "Kitty's alwos- ALWAYS, trying to help..." she forced out, the effects of sleep deprivation depriving her of the ability to speak coherently. "Yeah, she does try to help. She actually reminds me of my aunt.".
"Oh? why's that?" she asked with a little sarcasm mixed in, but Peter didn't exactly mind it. With people like Sally back at Midtown sarcasm was in every other sentence. "Heh, you can tell she deeply cares about you. Like how my Aunt May cared for others. She said that 'If you help someone, you help everyone'.". The girl looked at him with a questioning glare, she couldn't bring herself to bother decyphering what did that mean in her current state, so she asked. "And... what's... that supposed to mean?" Peter leaned back as he yawned into his hand and replied "Well, it just goes to say that you can't do everything... You gotta take small steps. That you taking the time to help one person goes a long way, much longer then you think." Peter said in return as well.
She thought about it, and sat up straight in her seat as she leaned on the back of the couch like Peter did, thinking about it as her eyes were unbearably heavy. "She... sounds nice..." the girl said as she began to feel her balance shift when she tried to shake herself awake, falling over side and leaning on the boy next to her with a slight oof from Peter. The boy wasn't sure on how he needed to approach it, but he enjoyed the feeling of her body on his. It was soft and warm, sitting on him like a thick blanket wrapping him up in the form of someone else's touch. A feeling that he hasn't felt since a few weeks back, and it made him both nostalgic and gave him something else to think about as he found himself yawning again. "Heh, Aunt May did say yawning was... con-tagiouuu..." he said as his words slurred before they could finish. His consciuosness finally switched off as he rested right there on the livingroom couch at complete and utter peace, more comfortable then his new bed and a good night's rest felt almost certain.
