Ellie looked up at the girl, her face reddening. Her mouth dangled open but no words came out. She couldn't explain herself properly, even though it had been an accident. Just as she was about to start babbling, she stopped. Instead, all that came out of her mouth was, "Can you help me up?" She rubbed her legs together in unease, still feeling something poking her. She knew very well what it was and suddenly panicked. What would Tunes say if she noticed it? She inwardly cringed. Maybe she should have just stayed in bed...

Still smarting from what she had walked in on, she quickly crossed the room and helped Ellie to her bed. Once the girl was sitting down she turned to her brother, who was slowly pulling himself from the ground. When he looked up at her, she pointed a finger toward the door. "Leave."
Like a puppy who had piddled on the rug, the boy quickly left the room, his face still the color of the tomato.
Tunes watched him leave, and then turned back to Ellie, angry look on her now red face, though it was clear that it was from anger and not from blushing. "Are you alright, Ellie?" she asked in a voice that did not match her expression.

Ellie settled back into her bed, her cheeks still beet-red. "Yeah, I'm fine..." she murmured, staring out into space as she replayed the moment over in her head. She bit her bottom lip for a second before turning to the younger girl, her sky-blue eyes harboring a lot of guilt. "It wasn't his fault; don't be mad at him. He came in and gave me medicine and I took a nap and when I woke up I tried walking... and, well, I haven't walked in a month so my footing was terrible and I almost fell but he caught me but he must have miscalculated something or whatever because then he slipped and then I... you know," she babbled, stopping at the end not only to catch her breath, but since she was sure that Tunes had an idea of what had happened after Note slipped.

Tunes sighed, covering her hand with her face. She took a moment to calm herself, and as her face started to turn back to its normal color, she looked down at her bag. "I got medicine. I don't know if you need it right now," she said.

"Cool, how? Note only brought along a fever reducer which I think should last for another six hours or so," Ellie responded, trying to calm herself down as well. It was difficult for her to do, though, since something kept ''popping up'' in the back of her mind. She suppressed a slight shudder, trying to rid herself of her blush.

"Don't ask questions you won't like the answers to," the girl said darkly, pulling out the bottle of medicine and placing it on the night stand. She continued to search through the bag, though she was no longer looking for anything.

Ellie's eyes widened for a heartbeat, trying to figure out if she'd heard the girl correctly. What had she done to retrieve the medicine? She silently gulped, swallowing all her negative thoughts. At least she'd gotten something. She watched as she placed the bottle of medicine on the nightstand and slid down into her sheets, almost scared of the girl, now. She curled herself into her blankets, sky blue eyes watching as the preteen searched through her bag. Now what was she looking for?

Oblivious to the sudden terror she had instilled in her friend, she sighed, defeated, but her eyes did not lift from the bag. "He's not going to want to come back in now. Ever."
It was not a conversation she really wanted to have, but her poor brother was probably sitting outside, humiliated. She had to say something.

You don't know the half of it! she wanted to scream, but she wouldn't embarrass Note more than he already was. Did he even know that she'd felt it? Had Tunes saw it and not said anything? The blond hid her face under the covers, knowing that a stronger blush was drawling across her face and she didn't need Emily questioning why.

Her face started to redden again, and this time for the same reason as Ellie's. She kept her eyes on the bag, trying to be mature, but how the heck did these things happen? She wasn't even sure who to blame.
"There's so many walls!" Chance cried, running in circles in the bath tub. EV sat watching him, a look of disturbed fascination on her face. "His behavior was ridiculous, but she could not stop watching him for some reason. It was... strangely entertaining...

Ellie sighed and completely wrapped herself under her blankets, closing her eyes again. Maybe she should try to sleep... but the whole ordeal had honestly excited her a little. With her blood circulation sped up, she found it hard to keep her eyes shut.
Angelo followed EV's gaze, sitting next to the Flareon/Umbreon. He observed as Chance flailed around in the bathtub, his expression being that of a distasteful one. ("I suggest therapy... for all of us.")

Tunes sighed, finally closing her bag and standing up. "If you're feeling well, maybe you should get up and move around a little," she said softly.
"...How has he not tired himself out yet?" EV's ear twitched in disblief. She was not sure she had ever seen anyone move so fast for so long. What was in that medicine she had given him.
Finally his momentum sent him crashing into the wall of the tub, and he ricocheted off like a rubber ball, spinning all the way across the tub on his belly. When he came to a stop he did not try to pick himself up, but instead simply looked up at the two Eevee evolutions with wide, dilated eyes.

Ellie threw off the covers and rolled to the edge of the bed, her medicine still in its full pitch. "Just don't try to catch me if I fall," the teenager joked, a short huff of laughter following the statement. "My legs need to adjust to being used again. They're so used to just being there and not doing anything," the blond sighed, resting her cheek on her hand.
Angelo eyes narrowed as he watched the Eevee roll across the tub with large eyes. ("At least he doesn't speak when he's like this. Then I might need to hurt someone,") he muttered to EV, a disturbed look still embedded into his features.

Tunes laughed with her. "I'll help you. Once you can walk across the room, maybe you should get dressed?"
"Hurt who?" the Eevee asked, pulling his front paws under him but reamaining splaid out like a rug.
"Go to sleep, Chance," EV growled. Though she had said nothing, she was in full agreement with Angelo on this one. He needed to stay quiet.
In response Chance put on what might have been the most adorable puppy dog face to ever come into existance. "But I'm not sleepy, Vivi..."
She visibly flinched at the slur of her regular nick name, and her eyes darkened as she stared down at the high Eevee. If it had been anyone else, she would have smacked them hard enough to make them see stars, but seeing as this was Chance, she restrained herself. And seeing as he was already high, she was not sure what he would have seen anyway.

"Dressed..?" Ellie echoed, sounding perplexed. She looked down and gasped, slapping her hand over her face. "Uhn, I didn't even noticed I wasn't... wearing.. a bra under this..." her sentence faded and the redness in her cheeks returned. So when she'd fallen on Note... "Yeah, getting dressed would probably be a good idea."
Angelo snorted, staring down at the Eevee like a hawk. ("Yes you are. You're very sleepy. In fact, you are asleep,") the Umbreon toyed, wondering if in such a state, the Eevee would believe him and stimulate a bunch of curious, ill-fated actions. Finally, he turned to the red Eon beside him and said, ("You know, I actually like him better this way.")
