Chapter 19 - He’s awake

Monday

"Takeshi? Takeshi are you ok?" Arhiyan's voice wakes him up.

"Ugh… What?" He slowly opens his eyes to see Arhiyan leaning over him on the floor.

"Where am I?" He groans, slowly trying to sit up.

"Your room sweetie. Take it easy," she helps him up and sits him on his bed.

"What… How did… What happened?" He rubs his head as a headache approaches.

"Ren said you fell off the bed then suddenly disappeared. Next thing she knows, you're lying on the floor passed out," Arhiyan sits next to him on the bed.

"He's awake," Ren stood in the doorway of his room.

"Hey," he lightly chuckles as he looks up at her.

"Maiman is downstairs," she looks over at Arhiyan.

"Good. That's good," Arhiyan nods in response.

"I'm hungry," Takeshi suddenly whines.

"I'll go make you something to eat. You need to hold this over your wound," Arhiyan hands him a black damp cloth as she stands up.

"Ok," he takes the cloth then puts it against where Jin bit his neck as Arhiyan leaves the room.

"I'm glad you're ok," Ren's eyes study him.

"Thanks," he gives her a small smile before looking at the floor, his head still spinning and pounding.

"What happened?" She walks over and sits next to him.

"Jin," he sighs.

"She bit you?" Her eyes continue to study him.

"Yeah. She's not, human," as he lays back on the bed, he lets out a groan.

"What is she?" Ren turns to look at him.

"Drakaina," he yawns.

"Oh. Wow. How'd you get back here?" Ren looks across the room.

"Stabbed her, with a knife," he laughs lightly.

"Oh. Sorry," she looks at the floor.

"It's ok," he smiles at her as he grabs her hand.

"Thanks," she throws him a smile.

"No problem," he carefully squeezes her hand.
