Shaking his head, Rhun looked back to the dock. "So I'd like to, but I'm not sure if I could. How long are you out for?"

"Usually about three days at a time." David said. "Pays not bad, fish smell bad and in the end you smell bad. But Manly, right Matey?" He gave Rhuns shoulder a pat.

Rhun laughed and rubbed the back of his neck. "Haha, yeah." Sounds like a good idea after all.

David smiled. "Come on, we still have alot of work."

"Yeah." He returned to helping out.

David continued to talk to Rhun as they worked and before he knew it, it was almost nightfall.

"I really should head back." Rhun said, rolling his shoulder until it cracked. "Nice to meet you."

"Yeah, you two." David smiled to him. "I'll see you around right?"

"Yeah, I'll see you around." He said, smiled, and then started back. He was apologising as soon as he opened the door, eyes downcast.

Mori was sitting at the table, and looked up when Rhun walked in.

"Where have you been all day?" Elizabeth asked, her tone and features showing how worried she was. "When yiu said I little walk thats what I expected, but all day?! Did you think how worried I'd be, did you even think at all?!"

"I went to help out." He said simply, walking on past to get a drink. "I didn't mean to worry you."

"You should have told me if you were goind to help out." Elizabeth said.

"Sorry." He said again. "I didn't know I was going to until I was there."

"Rhun just..." Elizabeth sighed and lent in the table, her head down. "GO to your room."

"Fine." His mouth pulled into a frown and he angrily walked off into his room, yanking the door shut behind him.

Elizabeth sat down and held her head. The fear of her worry scared her into a panic. ()

"He'll be fine." Mori said, glancing over. "Probably just needs some time."

"I do not think I can handle this." Elizabeth whispered.

"They'll all be fine, just take it easy on yourself." The demon said, grimacing. "Maybe you should go get some rest or something, take a break."

Elizabeth smiled up at him. "I'll be fine. You're the one who looks like he needs rest."

With a snort, Mori shook his head. "I'm fine, you're overly stressed." He stated. "Stop being so damn selfless and worry about yourself for once, you look terrible."

"What a lovely compliment." Elizabeth said dryly.

"No problem." He said, casting her a small grin.

"I'll be in my room." Elizabeth said, standing and gaving his arm a small rub. She disapeared behind her door,.

Mori grunted and folded his arms on the table, looking away.
