It took longer than expected. For Liu to come back, I mean. I had already finished my breakfast and was currently sketching in my little sketchbook while Whiskers rests besides me, watching me flick my pencil into multiple directions. While I was so concentrated on my drawing, I heard the door click open. I know it had to be Liu, since most people besides him usually knock before entering, so I didn't bother to try and hide Whiskers. As expected, Liu came in, almost hesitantly. He shuts the door behind him, walking back to the chair he sat on before, taking a seat. He doesn't look at me. He doesn't look at Whiskers. Hell, all he's looking at is at his feet. I pause from my drawing, placing my utensils down on my lap, allowing Whiskers to curiously paw at the pencil I laid down. "You okay?" I softly ask Liu, who responds almost immediately, "fine." I bite the inside of my cheek. The room was filling with tension way too quickly. I try to look over to Helen for help, but he seems too concentrated on his drawing. Thanks, Helen. I shortly purse my lips. "Helen?" I call out for the raven haired male, who lightly tilts his head up to look at me. "Can you help me get on my wheelchair? I'm, uh, paying Cici a visit." I smile shyly. Helen stares at me for a few seconds before looking straight behind me, presumably at Liu. "Liu would be glad to help you this time." He states. I turn my attention to Liu, who seemed surprised at Helen's sudden statement. He tilts his head to look at me, as if asking for permission. I give him a smile, which seems enough to convince him to help me. "Um, sure." Liu utters, pushing himself up from his spot. He heads over to my bed and hesitantly eyes the blankets over my lap. "Just tell me if I accidentally hurt you." He clears his throat nervously. I smile reassuringly and nod, extending my arms out to him. He hooks an arm underneath my legs and the other on my lower back. I wrap my arms around his neck to get a secure grip, making sure I won't suddenly slip from his arms.

Liu is being overly careful and gentle with his actions as he walks over to the other side of the bed, where the wheelchair was. As he carried me over to the wheelchair, I swear I could feel his heart wanting practically explode. His heartbeat was rather quicker than normal. I didn't question it, though. I felt him gently place me onto the wheelchair before straightening up his posture. I thank him with a smile. "Want to come with me?" I offer kindly, just to break off this thick tension in the room. "To where?" He questions. "To this one little girl called Cici. Her family doesn't visit her often so I spend time with her when I can." I beam. Liu lightly smiles before nodding. "Sure, why not?" He chuckles shortly. "Great! Helen, watch over Whiskers, will you?" I question before placing my hands on either sides of my wheelchair. I see Helen nod curtly, "sure." I flash him a smile before nodding my head towards the door.

"Come on, let's go!"

He doesn't know why, but he has this itch. This itch to see her again, this itch to touch her again. She was the only thing keeping him mentally stable for the time being. But after many days of futile attempts of trying to escape and see her was slowly making him unstable. He was much more aggressive towards everyone, more than usual, that is. Every time somebody tried to talk to him, he would snap at them. And being constantly watched by his acquaintance wasn't making this any better.

"Masky,"

"What?!"

Masky's voice was rough and agitated. His fingers twitched in need as he narrowed his eyes at the orange hooded male. Hoodie crossed his arms over his chest. "Look at how you're acting. What would Slender think of you?" Hoodie spat. Even if his expression isn't visible, it's clear by the tone of voice that he was heavily disappointed and irritated with his friend's behavior. Masky scoffed, hugging his own arms whilst digging his nails through the fabric of his jacket. No matter how or when he tried to leave, Hoodie would always be one step ahead of him. Hoodie was always the one with tricks up his sleeve. It would be useful in certain situations, but not in this one. "You're shaking," Hoodie pointed out. Masky narrowed his eyes at his friend and said nothing. "Stop doing that." Hoodie placed a firm hand on Masky's shoulder, only to have him violently jerk back. Even through the black holes of his mask, he could clearly see the fury burning in his eyes. "Don't fucking touch me," Masky sneered so venomously. Hoodie didn't expect his friend to ever act this way. And it's all because of some idiotic female out there. If Masky wouldn't get his shit together soon, Hoodie would be more than ready to finish this girl off himself. "Alright. Keep acting like this. See where it'll get you." Hoodie bluntly warned before making his way past his friend.
