Li Te woke up in a his stiff bed, wrapped up tightly in his thin pale sheets his mattress stained and spotted from freshly spilled liquids. It was evident that he had drank too much the night before and that he had ate too much as well. His vision was blurry and his eyes felt dry. He had not slept he had simply closed his eyes and when he opened them again twelve hours had passed. He was fatigued from last night's activites, but he couldn't bring himself to remember beyond taking a few shots with Amon.

He tried to scan the room, but as he attempted to move his neck his strength gave out. The very sound of his head hitting the pillow made his ears ring as he groaned and tugged at his blanket to shield his eyes from the harsh mid-afternoon sun. As Li Te snuggled closely into his pillow and shut his red, swollen eyes, his crisp blue irises died out with the previous night's events, he heard hesitant foot-steps. And then a light knock on the door, though through his ears, the slight touch of the door sounded like a hammer against his head.

With the knocking came Amon, with blood-shot eyes and his tie undone, as he set down a tray. CLICK CLACK the tray's contents continued, as Amon quickly apologized to Li Te. He rearranged the tray, and Li Te eyed a glass of water.

At that moment Amon knealt down before him, and lifted his head up to give him a large gulp of the water. As he chuckled at him, "Li, if I knew that you would react like this to a few shots, I wouldn't have let you drink."

"If I knew that you-nevermind, just shut up." he replied as he dug his face deeper into his limp pillow. Amon lifted himself up, and began to rearrange himself, infront of an invisible mirror. He cleared up his throat and turned away from Li Te, his face and the back of his neck reddening as he did so.

"You said some pretty interesting stuff last night, I don't think that you should go around saying those sort of things to people you barely know,"

Li Te mumbled in a reply mimiking a moody teenager.

"Seriously though, that could get you killed if you blab to the wrong people." he said as he gathered his various articles of clothing and quickly tied his hair.

Finally, Li Te looked up and asked, "Hey, where are you going? I thought you were going to play 'Doctor' with me all day."

"Unlike you Li, I have work to do. I'm not whatever you do that has human hours and decent pay."

"My job is pretty great, I mean I sit around and just engineer, which mind you is stressful."

"I'm just saying, well I'll see you at the typical spot tonight." And with that Amon slipped on his shoes and ran out of Li Te's small apartment, waving him goodbye.

It felt nice to have someone scold him, Li Te thought. It felt nice to have someone yell at him, and tell him when he did something stupid. However, he began to worry about the "stuff" he told Amon about the night before. He wanted to scream, run around, and just overall panic, but his body felt like a soggy noodle. And his head hurt like a thousand little spider-rats had scratched up his brain.
