Part 7

"Liz you need sleep, you look like a zombie."

"I'm fine, not tired at all" she replied yawning.

Her body swayed a little and her head bobbed slightly. Her eyes started to flutter and she stood probably to greet him with a hug but fell over instead. Kid caught her, but the dead body weight she carried made him collapse onto the ground. He ended up flat on his back with Liz laying on top of him asleep and snoring softly. She looked so peaceful when she was asleep like the nightmares that plague her eyes during the day don't exist when she's asleep.

He sat up and grabbed her in his arms cradling her like a baby. He placed her in the bed next to her sister and fixed her hair before placing a soft kiss on her cheek. He sat down in between the two bed to keep watch over her and her sister. He lay his head down Liz's' bed and drifted off slowly.

He awoke to the machine Patty was hooked up to beeping loud and fast. He jolted up, looking at the bed to find Liz no longer there. She came in a few seconds later with Dr. Stein. When she saw kid awake she came up to him slapped him and the proceeded to hug him.

"Why didn't you wake me? I told you to wake me if I fell asleep."

"Liz your dead tired and stressed you need sleep."

"But-"

"Hey love birds. I figured out what's happening to Patty. The witch's spell froze her head, the ice in her brain made the signals stop being sent to her body and her brain shut down from the shock. Her brain is cooling down and she should be awake soon but it might take a little while before she can move or be able to change into a weapon."

"but she'll be okay?"

"Yes Liz, all together she should be okay."

"But what was the beeping about?" Kid asked.

"Well, her heart started beating really fast. But I think it was just a nightmare or something."

Dr. Stein placed a cigarette in his mouth and walked out of the room. Liz sat down and visibly relaxed knowing that her sister should be fine.

"I have to go, but I'll be back soon" Kid leaned down and kissed her on the forehead before walking out the room.

Kid walked so fast away from the infirmary he almost ran right into Soul and Maka as they rounded the corner.

"Woah. Hey Kid what's wrong you seem upset." Soul asked concerned.

"Actually I need to talk to you" he looked at Maka, "Alone."

"Um okay? Well I'll see you later Maka"

"But Soul- Oh never mind" She said flustered.

They walked out of the building and sat down on one of the ledges.

"What's up Kid?"

"Well" he shifted nervously "Me and Liz... We are, I think we are..."

"What just spit it out already, your acting really uncool"

"Dating"

"What!? Really? I thought she had a thing for you. But I never realised you had a thing for her."

"The reason I'm talking to you about this is because I'm not sure how to go about anything."

"Why are you asking me? I don't have a girlfriend" he said voice shaking slightly.

"I thought you and Maka... I guess I was wrong, you too just always seem to be giving looks to each other so I assumed..."

"Hey! We are talking about you not me right now."

"Haha so you two are a thing!"

"NOT. THE. POINT. HERE.!"

"Right, should I talk to her because like everything that's going on with her sister right now I don't want to stress her out, or make her think about anything else."

"I say I just let thing be and they'll run their course."

"Thanks for the help man, you can go back to your girlfriend now."

"Oh shut it" He said blushing.

Soul walked away and left kid sitting there thinking. I should probably go back to check on Liz and Patty. He headed back to the infirmary when he walked into the room her saw that Patty was awake.

"Your Awake!" He rushed over to her and hugged her tightly. "I was so worried"

"Oh hey Kid, how's a going"

"Nothing, but how are- oh I'm sorry I was sitting on your hand."

"Oh didn't feel it."

"Really?"

"Wait Patty did you say you had no feeling in your hand?" Dr. Stein asked concerned.

"Yeah. So?"

"I need to run some tests, Kid, Liz would you please give us a second."

"Um, yeah sure Dr. Stein we'll be outside."

"I wonder what's wrong. It's weird that Patty didn't feel my touch."

"It's probably nothing."

~ 20 minutes later ~

"Liz, Kid I'm afraid have some bad news."

"What? What's wrong with Patty."

"She doesn't have any feeling in her body."

"Wait what?!"
