He was relieved to see Kalya had given her the watch back, and that it was doing something to help her. A surge of pride filled him, his actions last night feeling more justified than ever- it didn't matter if everyone else was upset with him, he had been right to go looking for it, and Alice was happy to have it back. That much was clear.
He stayed silent as he knew she was counting the ticking of the clock, and he fidgeted, torn between getting closer and staying put. The last thing he wanted was to upset her.
"Alice, I-"
He didn't know what words to say, not in English, not to where she could understand. He hated feeling so useless, so scared. Alice slowly reached out to grab her cup, and Shion moved to grab it for her, to help
in some way, but she beat him and the cup went clashing to the floor, water spraying slightly onto his shoes.
"I"m sorry! I'm sorry! It was an accident!"
Shion fumbled, stepping closer as Alice seemed to be trying to hide, shaking his head and making repeated noises of dissent. "No, no- don't hide..." he didn't do anything more, though. He couldn't touch her, not when she seemed to want space the most, and he knew her body language enough to know she was feeling uncomfortable in the situation.
Of course she's uncomfortable."Ah, the- the ca...cast? It is hard to grab with it, right?" Shion went closer to the bed, standing next to it without looming over her though. He had had a cast once, before, when he broke his arm while running through the forest. It had been a pain, but he couldn't imagine how much more irritating it was for her, with everything else on top of it.
He moved out of the way when her hand shot out suddenly, aiming straight for her bunny. He shot a look to Kalya, who looked torn,giving him a sympathetic glance but doing nothing, her fingers gripping harshly into her forearms.
She was about to say something when Alice's muffled whispers made it out of her hiding spot. Shion swallowed, nodding his head though he knew she couldn't see. "Missed you too. A lot. It is...scary. I was scared. Really scared. You- I know you are not okay, and you will...take time to get better." Shion tried to figure out how he should phrase the rest of what he wanted to say. He wasn't sure if he was doing a good job, but he wanted her to know she didn't have to be worried. "I'll come visit you. Every day. Not when you want to be alone. But I will come. If- if that is okay?" He asked. This was coming out wrong, all wrong.
"H-here, water!" He grabbed the cup off the floor, and gently poured another cup and handed it out, waiting for her to take it. "You have fluffy animal at the house. Usagi. It is big. I made it a bed in my room for now."
