"Oh yeah," Quaxo said, blushing slightly, "we were close weren't we?"
He let go of Puck, taking a few steps towards his den. "Come in."

Puck followed him in, still holding on to Kami's hand. "Nice place." She stated, giving Quaxo another smile. "Much nicer than mine."

Kamaria followed as the last one, still clinging to Puck's hand. A small smile came to her lips as she looked around, though. "Very nice, indeed," she said.

Quaxo smiled despite himself at the compliment, "thanks. It's not quite done yet, there are still some things that I'd like to do, but yeah, it works anyways." He went further inside, sitting down on the side of his makeshift bed. "Come sit down if you want," he said to the other two.

Kamaria nodded. "Thank you," she said softly, and went over to sit next to him, pulling Puck with her. She didn't want to let go of Puck's hand just yet.

Puck gave Kam's hand a squeeze and put her head on her shoulder. She gave the pair a smile, not really sure what to say.

Quaxo shifted, slightly uncomfortable. He was so tired, mentally and emotionally, he couldn't even think of what to do. He wished that he could just turn off his abilities; it was times like this that he found it hard to think of them as a gift. It was getting to the point where he was finding it difficult to discern between his own emotions and those of others.
He flopped down, "I'm sorry I can't be a better host right now."

Kamaria rested her head on Puck's, closing her eyes for a moment. She was so exhausted emotionally, mentally, but she knew she wouldn't be able to sleep anyway.
"You're doing fine. I'm sorry we're not more cheery company, though," she murmured.

"Don't worry about us, Quaxo. You just need to rest." Puck replied with a nod. "You too Kam."
"Do either of you need anything?"

Quaxo laughed, "you're not supposed to play host at my place. Besides, you need to rest even more than we do."
All the same though, he curled up on his bed, making himself comfortable.

Kamaria shook her head with a small smile, and wrapped an arm around Puck, pulling her close.
"You should get some rest, Quaxo. You look like you need it. You should get some rest, too, sweetie," she murmured, looking at Puck.

"I'll play host wherever I please." Puck replied, getting a blanket and covering Quaxo to prove her point. "Its called being a friend."
She gave a dismissive wave to the comments about her needing rest. "Don't worry about me, I can manage." All the same, she leaned into Kamaria and stifled a yawn.

"No," Quaxo said non-committally, "if anything we should all rest." He yawned again, "thanks for the blanket Puck."

"I suppose you're right," Kamaria said with a small nod, and lay down, pulling Puck down with her.

Puck was already half asleep despite her best efforts to stay awake. She didn't resist when Kam pulled her down, but quickly curled up and fell asleep completely.

Quaxo's eyes were closed and sleep overtook him almost instantly. His dreams, however, were filled with a flurry of emotion, apparently little things like unconsciousness were not enough to put his abilities down. Something about this place was throwing h into overdrive, and he had no idea what.
He shuddered in his sleep, a restful night didn't seem to be in the cards for him tonight.

Kamaria curled up against Puck, arms still around her, and closed her eyes. She didn't fall asleep, though. She buried her face in Puck's back, trying to fight off the tears, her mind kicking into overdrive. Whenever it got dark and quiet and time to sleep nowadays, Kamaria's brain started running on full speed in stead.
Something was not right with Puck, and it worried Kamaria. A lot. And then there was Skimbleshanks... It was ridiculous how much turmoil her emotions were in over that silly tom. How could love affect her so strongly? Why was the fact that he didn't care about her tearing her apart? So stupid. So so stupid. She'd hoped telling him would make the feelings go away, but they were still there, and now she was heartbroken, too. Tumblebrutus was probably still angry at her, too. Oh, what a fine mess this all was.

Puck frowned a little in her sleep, almost as if she was still aware of Kamaria's restlessness. She felt around for her friend's hand and gave it a squeeze. "Shh, shh," she muttered, still asleep, "It'll be ok."
Unlike the others, Puck's mind was at ease when she slept. She was the happiest in her dreams, where nothing ever bothered her, so she always looked forward to sleep. Sleep was her escape.

Kamaria relaxed a little, comforted by the presence of the other two cats, especially Puck. Slowly sleep finally overtook her, and she fell asleep snuggled close to her best friend.

Quaxo stirred, feeling slightly stiff and like he had gotten no sleep at all. He opened his eyes to see Puck and Kamaria at his side, sleeping what would appear to be soundly. They looked cute together. He sincerely hoped that they had a much better sleep than he had.
On the plus side though, things seemed to be back to normal with his abilities. No attacks of emotion for the moment, so he counted that as a blessing.

Stirring, blinking blearily, Kamaria woke up. She was still wrapped around Puck, who appeared to still be sleeping peacefully. Easing up into a sitting position, careful not to stir Puck, she rubbed her eyes and blinked at Quaxo.
"Mornin'," she murmured.

Puck shifted a little when Kamaria sat up, but stayed asleep. There were times when she couldn't sleep at all and times she slept like the dead. This was one of the latter times.

"Good morning," Quaxo said, his voice raspy from not being used, "did you sleep well?"
He tried not to let on that he had not, willing himself to feel more awake and refreshed than he actually felt.

Kamaria nodded. "I slept okay. How about you?"
She glanced down at the sleeping form of Puck, and frowned. "What happened yesterday, before I showed up?" she asked quietly, the worry resurfacing slowly.

"I slept quite well thanks," Quaxo lied.
In response to her question he frowned a bit, "it's not really my place to say Kamaria...that's Puck's business."

Kamaria pouted. "Well, yeah, but she won't say anything. I'm worried about her."

Quaxo sighed, getting up carefully so as not to bother Puck, he was conflicted. On one hand he felt like he shouldn't tell Kamaria since it really wasn't his to tell.
But on the other hand he could tell that Kamaria was legitimately concerned with her friend.
"But...well...I shouldn't say..."

Kamaria nodded. "I guess not. Not sure how to get her to tell me, though. I want to help her, if I can. I hate seeing her upset," she murmured, glancing down at Puck's sleeping face again.

"Get her to tell you what?" Puck muttered, still half asleep. She really didn't want to wake up and clung to the remaining sleep as much as possible so she was more sleep talking than actually following along with the conversation.
