     A pressure made itself known upon your face, blocking your breathing. You flailed out from under it, opening your eyes and breathing again. You immediately noticed that it was a duffel bag and that Kaeya was the one who had set it on your face.

      You rubbed your eyes and sat up, "Kaeya? What are you doing here?"

     He took your arms gingerly and began unraveling the bandages there to check your wounds, "I'm just dropping off clothes and supplies and such. I was able to find an opening to sneak into your apartment, so I grabbed as much of your stuff as I could, I even got your phone. Albedo made sure it hasn't been tapped, so they can't track you here."

     You dug your hand into the bag he gave you, bringing out your phone. It was reasonably dead, so you rummaged around for the charger and got up to plug it in. When you turned back to him, you noticed his dark circles and disheveled appearance. You decided not to comment on it considering he usually tried to take care of his appearance, instead just flopping down on the bed beside him and asking, "So where's my dish cleaner at?"

     "Your what now?" As Kaeya asked that, the suite door opened, and in came Ajax with three styrofoam containers.

     "Ah girlie, you're awake. I got us all breakfast if you're hungry."

     "Thank Archons, Ajax, I'm starving," you bolted back up and went over to the table he was setting things down on.

     "Ajax..?" Kaeya asked, confused because he didn't yet know the ginger's real name.

     You paused with a sausage link between your fingers, about to start eating, "Should I uh... not have called you that in front of people?"

     Ajax ran a hand through his hair and breathed in, "No you're fine," he turned to Kaeya, "That's my real name, Ajax. You can use it if you want, now that you know it and all."

     "I'm good. Thanks for breakfast though," Kaeya deadpanned as he got up to join you both.

It was a peaceful breakfast, albeit quick; you wolfed it down faster than either of the boys. You left them to make awkward small talk without you to retreat into the bathroom to remove the rest of your bandages, checking yourself over. You didn't often pay attention to the myriad of scars upon your body, but here, naked and in front of the large mirror, they were kind of impossible to ignore.

     There were many more than before, some not fully healed. You could recall how you'd all of the ones that weren't there thanks to your soulmate, and even a few the ones that were caused by him. There were thin, pale lines on each of your wrists, but the ones on the left were from your end; yet, the other side was the exact same. There was an unspoken agreement between you to not talk about your shared scars, and that applied to these too.

     Shaking your head to get rid of the thoughts, you deemed your healing process good enough to forgo rewrapping your bandages, freeing yourself from your gauzy prison. When you had just begun dressing yourself again, the bathroom door swung open without so much as a knock, "Hey Y/N-"

     "Gah, what the fuck are you doing in here!?" You shrieked in surprise, grabbing the nearest object and hurling it at the intruder.

     He dodged it and then turned his eyes away from you, "I thought you were just fixing your bandages and might need help!"

     "Get out Ajax! You are a dirty pervert out out out!"

     "You're the one throwing a bottle of lube at the handsome man, I think you're the pervert," You threw something else at him, this one being a bar of soap.
