"Hello Ryan,I was just making sure you got home okay",came Ryan's boss from the other end.

Ryan smiled widely, "Oh hello sir! It's very kind of you to check up on me. I did get home safely thank-you for asking. I assume you got home safely as well correct sir?" he asked and looked over at Damen.

Damens eyes became cold figureing it was his boss,oh he had some choice words for a man who could dive a girl like Yukina to the oint where she was going to end her life.

"Good ,good,an yes I got home just fine.Tell me Ryna,you havn't seen the young girl i had come into the library with yesterday have you?",he asked seeming concerned

"Good I'm happy to hear that sir." Ryan answered and widened his eyes. "The girl you were with?" he repeated and shook his head. "No sir I didn't see her on my way home, I'm sorry. Is she not with you sir?" he asked and frowned, His boss sounded so worried and he felt bad for lying. "I promise that if I do find her, I'll bring her to the library and give you a call so that you could pick her up though sir, I promise." he said softly while looking at Damen. He was sure Damen was going to yell at him.

The man had a smile in his voice,."god boy,thank you",he said and hung up

Damen stood up growling a bit

"You're quite welcome sir." Ryan said before hanging up and looking over at Damen. "D-damen...a-are you mad at me?" he asked and frowned. "Please don't be mad." he whispered and walked over to the male but kept his distance.

Damen frowned."not at you,at that man ,pretending to care....",he sidghed."I really hope you didn't mean what you siad"

"Of course I didn't Damen." Ryan answered with a smile and taped his own head. "I'm quick to come up with answers. Don't worry, I'm not telling him anything. If he asks I'll just keep telling him I haven't seen her. He might find out on his own eventually which is why we should probably do something before he does." Ryan explained.

Damen smiled softly.relaxing."good",he said groand.'true,but what can we do>"

"Call the authorities, schedule an appointment for an interview where an officer comes here to interview Miss Yukina. We can also be witnesses to her suicide attempt." Ryan answered.

Damensighed."he may have some cops paid off,and bringing someone to meet her is a good idea,but may out her in danger,and telling anyoone abut her suiside attemept,may have her locked up in a hospital"

Ryan frowned and sighed, Damen was right. It was dangerous to have someone see her and he didn't want to get her locked up anywhere. "Well what other options do we have?" he asked as he sat on the couch and turned off his cellphone.

Damen sighed."we keep her safe as long as we can",he said softly.

"I know. What happens if she's found though? What do we do then?" Ryan asked and looked over at Damen. He knew that what they were doing was ruined thanks to the phonecall. That was okay though, they had important things to focus on.

Damen fround."I dsont knwo....i mean she's anadult,but,you bos may have her to scared to do what she wants to do,even if she was with us"

"Well then, we'll have to help her any way that we can so that she isn't afraid anymore." Ryan answered. "She's safe here, and she needs to know that no one is going to hurt her here. We're not going to let her get hurt anymore." he added seriously and frowned as he stared out the window. "You're probably tired so I'll let you get some sleep. I...I should probably get some sleep too." he noted and stood up. Grabbing his cellphone, he quickly left to his room and quietly closed the door behind him.

Damen blinked a bit."Hey-",he frowned watching him go."okay....",he siaghed and stood,it was noon,with a shrugs he started to clean up the house.

Ryan frowned as he sat on his bed and stared out the window. What was he supposed to do about his feelings for this guy? He hardly knew him and he was already kissing him as if they had been friends for the longest time. "Ugh, why me. He's so....perfect." he whispered to himself sadly.

A fewHours later

Damen went to the stairs and smiled up them."Hey everyone dinner!",he alle up to them.andwent back to the kitchen sitting down ,staring at the chinise food he had ordered.

Yukina blinked away,yawning."I slept all day?",she mumbeled and sat up rubbing her eyes.

Temri snapped out of his thoughts and looked at Yukina. "Yes you did. I hope you slept well. Come on, we need to eat." he informed politely and walked with her downstairs to the kitchen.

Ryan quickly wiped away any tears he had and took a deep breath. Letting it out slowly, Ryan opened his door and headed down the stairs and into the kitchen.

Yukina blinked a bit and started following him."alright",she said softly.

Damen turned to them."did you all enjoy your naps?",he said grinning though looking at Ryan frowned.He looked like hehad been crying.

"I wasn't napping, I was just daydreaming. It was really nice!" Temri answered happily. "What about you Damen? did you take a nap before dinner?" he asked curiously.

"Yes, I had a nice nap." he muttered and took his seat with a small smile on his face. He didn't want to look so depressed, he didn't want to make everyone else depressed because of him.

Yukina sat beside Ryan and looked to him."you okay",she asked quitely.

Damen shook his head."nope i did some cleaning up and got some things organized"

"Well try to get some sleep soon man, I can't have you over working yourself. It won't do your body any good to push yourself." Temri explained.

Ryan looked at Yukina and nodded. "I'm fine." he said quietly. "Just tired. Very, very tired." he answered.

Damen gave a shrug."i don't need tonap durining the day",he said softly.Then sat down watching Ryan closely.


Yukina frowned."you should get some sleep after dinner..."
