Lorraine awoke as she felt someone shaking her. The initial shaking didn't wake her, the light stings coming from a few parts of her body did. Namely: her stomach, legs, and chest area.

"Lori, it's time to get up." Claudia stood at the edge of the bed, a cup of water in her hands.

Lorraine only groaned as she felt a dull throb to the side of her head. Pushing herself up and squinting at Claudia's figure, Lorraine gave a half hearted smile.

"Well good morning Lorraine. If you slept any longer I would say 'good afternoon'." The redhead smiled, letting Lorraine situate and reorient herself.

"What? What time is it?" Lorraine muttered, cringing and reaching up to the side of her head.

She tried to soothe the throbbing of her temples.

"It's like forty-passed-eleven on a Sunday morning, Lori." Claudia said, sitting at the edge of the bed.

Lorraine blinked at that, looking towards the blinds, then the clock near her.

11:43 AM

"Wha- What time did we go to sleep yesterday?" Lorraine croaked out, taking the water that Claudia offered her for her dry throat.

"Well, I got home at about two, maybe three, in the afternoon, when Francis and Fred called me about you, and then you were completely passed out until now." Claudia let out half a laugh, "You got way over twelve hours of sleep."

Claudia leaned over and placed a hand to the side of Lorraine's face.  Her brows almost immediately furrowed upon contact.

"Oh Scott, you're burning up Lorraine!" The blue haired woman blinked slowly.

"What do you mean? I feel fine, Dia." Lorraine raised a brow as Claudia put the back of her hand to her forehead.

"You say that, yet my hand is burning against your skin. Can you try to stand for me?" The taller woman took Lorraine's hand.

"Sure, but I don't know why you want me to." Lorraine gingerly placed her legs over the side of the bed.

She let more of her weight falling into Claudia as she slid off, ending up in the taller woman's arms as expected by the redhead.  Claudia could only stand still as Lorraine muttered something, trying to regain her balance. 

"Let's get to the bathroom, you can relax in bath." Claudia said in a gentle tone, carefully leading the shorter woman into the bathroom.

"I can get there myself, Dia." Lorraine looked to the side, still leaning against Claudia as she spoke.

"I'm sure you can." The redhead simply smiled, setting Lorraine on the sink counter.

"Do you want to pick your own clothes when you come out or do you want me to get you clothes?" Claudia asked, starting the water.

Lorraine had a hand to the side of her head as she responded, "I'll grab my clothes when I come out, my robe will do just fine for the moment."

Claudia nodded, standing up and going to get the other woman's robe from the back of the bathroom door. She then closed it as she came back over to Lorraine. 

"Want me to stay and help or do you think you can do it?" Claudia placed Lorraine's robe next to her, standing back and waiting for her response.

Lorraine mumbled out a small yes as she wrapped her arms around Claudia's abdomen.  The redhead gave a small smile at that, starting to help the woman out of her old clothes.
