Harper smiled, stroking his cheek gently. "I sat around and watched horror movies all day." She heard growling at the foot of the bed and looked down. Zulu was sitting there, his teeth bared and his eyes narrowed, snarling at her.

"Oh, go away." She said, waving him away with her foot. He snapped at her and she drew her leg back. "Don't you bite me!" She wiggled out of her skirt, throwing it at him. He calmed down, nudging her foot. "No. You tried to bite me." She complained, walking over to get her pajama pants again.

Trez chuckled faintly, watching her with the dog. When she got up, he drew in a faint breath, eying Zulu as he cleared his throat. He glanced back at Harper briefly, images fading in and out before his eyes, a concert, then a bar. The floor beneath him in a dizzying spin as he tried to keep from passing out.

They were like memories before his eyes, startling.

Harper heard Zulu bark loudly, and turned around, one leg in her pajama pants. "Trez?" She kicked the pants off, walking back over to the bed. She climbed onto it, eyeing Zulu warily. He was laying on the floor with his head on his paws, whining.

"Trez, it's okay.. Just relax.." She whispered, putting his head in her lap. She ran her fingers slowly through his hair, biting her lip. She guessed if worse came to worse, she could go bother Sean, tell him to come fix Trez.

"I'm right here, okay? Just relax.." She slowly played with his hair, hoping it helped.

[trez matthew steele]

Trez let out a wavering breath, closing his eyes a moment. He opened them again, but no longer saw the bedroom or Harper, had fallen still. His eyes flickered a bit, chest rising and falling slowly. But he had fallen into an absence seizure, mentally gone at the moment, unresponsive and unseeing to the real world, the crowd of voices in his head growing painfully loud and distracting.

He could see the images like memories behind closed eyes, only his were open, hands tensing and relaxing against the bed.

Harper looked down at him, tracing her fingers slowly over his jaw. She ran her other hand through his hair, more concerned that he would stop breathing than anything. She gently traced her fingers over his jaw, her eyes watching his chest rise and fall.

'You know CPR. But do you remember it?' She thought, her stomach turning at the idea. She didn't want to start breaking ribs. 'Maybe if he just.. doesn't bite his tongue..' She thought. But Zulu wouldn't stop whining.

"Zulu hush!" She said, her voice cracking. She refused to admit she was scared.

[trez matthew steele]

After two or three minutes Trez grew painfully aware or Harper's touch and groaned, rolling over. "Shut up.." He grabbed the dog's muzzle gently, huffing. "Ugh...sorry.." He didn't feel tired, knew it had only been an absence.
Gazing back up at her, he reached a hand up to touch her cheek gently. "It's okay, I'm okay Harper."

[harper reese lebeau]

Harper threw her arms around him, hugging him tightly. She was so glad he was okay, and only faintly aware how strange it looked, her here in her underwear with her arms as tight around him as she could get.

"You don't know how happy I am to hear you talk." She mumbled into his neck, hiding her face. She didn't want to look at him, too afraid she might cry. She loosened her grip, not wanting to choke him.

[trez matthew steele]

Trez huffed when she hugged him tight. He smiled faintly, sitting up with a grunt. "I'm alright," He complained softly, glancing up as Sean peered into the room, raising an eyebrow. "I figured you killed each other," He taunted. "Everything okay?"
Trez nodded, sighing. "We're fine," He breathed.

[harper reese lebeau]

Harper's first instinct was to hide herself, her eyes glaring a bright yellow at Sean. Then she remembered he was gay, so she just stayed the way she was, not bothering to cover up. She blinked, her eyes glowing at him. Zulu nudged him with her nose and she laid on the bed on her stomach, her eyes turning back to brown as she played with the dog from the edge of the bed.

"Grr grr." She said, grabbing his muzzle and shaking it back and forth. He growled, snapping at her as she let go. He bounced over to Sean, licking his legs. She turned over onto her stomach, letting her head hang off the bed. "I have no intentions of killing anyone." She said, smirking mischeviously. 'Except maybe you..' She thought, secretly jealous of him.

[trez matthew steele]

Trez laughed as Sean grinned down at the dog then shrugged. "Hey I don't know that, I just met you like, four hours ago." He stuck his tongue out at her again before slinking back out of the room with the dog, rambling to him softly.

Trez chuckled, shaking his head. "Dork," He murmured, looking over at Harper and hanging his head over the edge beside her. "Boo."
