With the anticipation of wondering what she thought finally getting to him, he walked up the stairs and stood behind her as she stared into the room.

"i-is it to your likeing?"

Looks up at the stairs "ok then I'll go get my bed then" he takes a gulp from the mountain dew and sets it back down. He made his way towards the door then headed out into the rain.

She blinked, stunned by the work that he had put into the room. She had no idea that he had been working on her room all day. She took it all in again, and turned to him. Flinging her arms around his neck, she hugged him tight.

"It's amazing! Oh goodness, I've never had a room like this! I can't believe you did that!"

Eyes wide, still stunned by the girl who now has her arms wrapped around his neck. Shyly, he hugs her back.

"this was no problem. Thank you for helping me so much these past two days. i greatly appreciate it. I just figured since i didnt know where you slept last night and the thought of you sleeping on the floor makes me cringe, that you should have your own room to call your own."

Grave walks to the back of his Hurse and opens the rear door, he reaches in and grabs hold of the doublewide coffin by the one of the handles on its side and pulls it from the back of the Hurse. As he stands it up he reaches back in the car and grabs a six wheeled dollycart, he pulls it out and tries to slide it under the coffin. After he struggles the cofin onto the dolly he lashes it inplace with a calble and shuts the rear door of the hurse, then hauls his coffin into the tavern.

Pulling away, she smiled. She was still amazed that he would do something like that for her. She beamed at him, turning back towards the room that was now hers. She walked slowly inside, taking everything in, her mouth now hanging open like a childs'. She noticed the curtains, the floor, the bed, the lighting, everything. She stopped in the middle of the room, and turned around to face him.

"I can't believe that you would go through so much trouble just to get me my own room. Why?"

he thought for a second on how to respond. then it came to him

"You took your savings, of i dont even know how much, and invested in food and appliances and lumber and tools, and much more. Because you wanted to help. Well i couldnt have let all of those kind things youve done for me be taken for granted. so, i gave you something i thought youd find special."

As Grave enters the tavern, he heads towards the stairs and begins hoisting the coffin up to his new room. As e reaches the top of the stairs he looks to his left and see's Anaguma looking into a room he assumes to be Rae's and looks to the one across from them and hauls his coffin in there.

She smiled brightly at him, and sat down on her bed with a 'plop.' She ran one hand over the bedding, still amazed at it all. She looked up at him after a moment.

"I spent most of it. Because I wanted this place to be special. That's why I spent my savings. I just can't believe...."

She trailed off, her eyes wandering around the room once more.

He chuckled slightly to himself then approached her as she sat on her bed looking amazed around the room, before she came back to her senses he was already in front of her. He leaned over and gave her a kiss on the forehead.

"Stop questioning everything. and except it."

He kissed her again on the forehead and left the room, shutting the door behind him.

"enjoy"

Grave unlashed his coffin and slid it of the dolly and laid it down in the center of the room. "well I guess here is good enough for now" he said as he walked over to the dolly. He grabbed the dolly and pulled it up against a wall in the far corner and walked back downstairs to finish his mountain dew.

She blushed, flustered. She started after him as he walked out, still registering what he said to her, and what he did. She had never had anyone react like that towards her before, and she wasn't sure what to think about it.

She stood up once, and walked around the room, looking at everything that he had put in it. Every detail, every finishing touch, every item of furniture, and every object. She smiled faintly, and sat in the middle of the room, on the rug. She placed her head in her hands, for the first time in years she wished that her parents were there to see her.

Stopped on the other side of the door, he was listening to see if she was following him. When he heard her stop, he had feared he had upset her. Turning to knock on her door, he noticed a coffin in Graves room. Thinking that Rae would like to see this, he knocked on her door.

Rae started when she heard him knock on the door. Wiping her face, she made sure she didn't look upset at all. She went and answered the door, smiling at him.

"What's up?"

O.o

Noticing her eyes are red, he pointed towards the coffin across the hall.

"Why do you think he has that for?"

Grave picked up the can and finished it quickly, then threw it away and walked toward the front door. He locked the door and grabbed his bag then headed back up the stairs

Shrugging, she eyed the coffin for a moment. She didn't really think that much about it. People tended to have at least one strange thing about them. She figured that if she let it be, then they would tell her eventually. If they didn't, then they must not find it important to talk about.

"No idea. We will find out eventually I suppose."

Quietly shutting her door, she made her way downstairs, and grabbed a Code Red. Popping the top, she downed it, and grabbed another one. Sitting heavily on a bar chair, she sighed.

he made his way downstairs and sat on a bar stool near her.

"Listen, im sorry, if i have upset you."

He tilted his head in curiousity as she began to drink a can of code red.

She shook her head, finishing that can. She knew it wasn't him, and she was kicking herself for making him that it was his fault. She turned to look at him, and sighed.

"It's just that my parents died a few years back, and I just wish that they could see this. That's all. It's nothing you did, trust me."

She smiled at him, as if to prove to him that it isn't him at all. She grabbed the bowl of Doritos, and began munching on them.

Grave passes Rae and then Anaguma on the stairs and heads into his room. He sets his bag by the doorway and walks over to his coffin and slides the lid off to reveal the well padded red silk lined interior with matching pillows and comforter as well as speakers and a multimedia hook up. Curious as to what his hosts were doing he made his way back down stairs.

He smiled warmly back at her. He watched her munch on her doritos for a little while then decided to speak.

"you know, you have helped me alot. And i just want you to know, if you ever need to talk, or a shoulder...just come find me."

He hugged her, as if to take away her pain, as much as he wished he could, he knew he couldnt.

Grave noticed the two of them and thought it would be best to head back up stairs, but not after finding a bag of doritos, he decided to rummage in the kitchen.

She smiled, and hugged him back. She knew that he would be there. It was just something about him that comforted the thought that she would be alone when it came to things like that. She looked up at him, and made a face.

"I know. I like helping, and you did an amazing job on my room. I just get like that every so often. I'll be okay. I promise."

Smiling at the fact he made your smile, he realized how late it really was getting.

"You may be like this due to the time. it is kinda late and it is rainy outside. Want me to walk you back to your room?"

Nodding, she put the Doritos away, and got rid of the cans. Walking over to him, she frowned as if she was forgetting something. Then getting that look like she remembered, she ran over to the tables, and blew the candles out, one by one. When they were all out, she walked back over to him.

"Sure. All set. Thanks for being there for me, even though I didn't ask you to be."
