[CLOSED] a song about marilyn monroe.

Aubri crawled over to the couch. She knelt down at the end, gently running her fingers through his hair. She was careful to do it slowly so she wouldn't wake him, but hopefully comfort him. She laid her head on the arm of the sofa, slowly playing with his hair.

Nash pulled Sean's arms tighter around him, closing his eyes for a moment. But he fell asleep instead, his face buried in Sean's neck. Aubri looked over at them, and couldn't help thinking Sean might be what Nash needed, someone to hold him when everyone else had left.

Xander glanced over at her as she moved towards the couch, watched Trez relax some and smile a bit. Xander smiled, turning his attention to the movie again.

Sean felt Nash's breaths deepen with sleep and kissed the top of his head agsin, rather calm right now. He rubbed his back slowly with one hand, the other arm still wrapped firmly around him.

Aubri continued to play with his hair carefully, watching the TV from the arm of the sofa. She glanced down at him occasionally, checking to make sure he was breathing and not bleeding. But otherwise she stayed still aside from playing with Trez's hair. "Xander." She whispered, signing for a glass of water with her free hand. When he came back with her water, she nodded towards Nash.

"He sleeping?" She whispered.

Xander looked up as his name wascalled, getting up and filling up a glass for her. He handed it over, glancing at Nash. Sean had his own head tipped back, eyes closed and lips parted faintly. Xander smiled, nodding.
"They both are."

[aubri 'bee' ella-paige reed]

She just shook her head, taking a drink of her water. "That's really cute." She whispered, setting the glass down beside her. She continued to slowly run her fingers through Trez's hair, propping her head up on her other hand. She looked over at Nash moved, curling up on Sean's chest, his knees pulled up on his side.

"Guess we may as well go find something to do. Everyone's sleeping." She whispered.

[alexander 'xan' manuel steele]

Xander nodded, realizing it wasn't even lunch yet. He watched Trez stir and reach a hand up to rub at his face, and eased up a bit more, glad he seemed to be okay. "What you wanna do?"

[aubri 'bee' ella-paige reed]

"I dunno. Something quiet so these three can sleep." She mumbled, pulling herself to her feet. She grabbed her glass of water, and made her way into the bedroom. She sat down on the bed, running her hands up and down her legs. Somewhere in the back of her mind, she was thinking she was glad she hadn't been really high around Xander yet, otherwise that may have ended up with him being extremely mad at her.

"So, any ideas?" She asked, looking over at him.

[alexander 'xan' manuel steele]

Xander followed after her, shrugging and sitting down on the edge of the bed. "Mm..I dunno," He huffed, staring thoughtfully at his CDs again. He had made up the album artwork and everything before he died.

Standing, he headed towards the desk and picked up one of the desk cases, brushing dust off the top of it before setting it back down again.

[aubri 'bee' ella-paige reed]

Aubri walked up behind him, peering around him. She wrapped her arms around herself, eyeing the cases. She looked up at Xander again, then back at the cases. "You don't look like a rock star." She said, then walked back to the edge of the bed. She was vaguely aware of her pounding heart, put it off as her trying to get used to her medicine. But even numb, she didn't want to feel anything for Xander.

"We could play cards." She suggested.

[alexander 'xan' manuel steele]

Xander smiled. "Maybe it's not rock," He murmured. "Never did get the chance to have my work debuted, died before I had the chance." He frowned a bit, followed after her.

"Sure, ah.." Pulling open a drawer he shuffled through it, tossed a dusty set of cards her way. Trez had literally touched nothing in here.
