The Network - A Cyberpunk RP

She exhaled once she was finally sitting, leaning forward to cradle her head. It took her a moment to pull her thoughts together, but she gave him the name and address of the place she'd been staying. It was really more of a hostel type situation than anything. The rooms were shared, and it wasn't particularly secure - she still had to carry everything with her when she left, or make sure it was hidden. But it was cheap, gave her a place to sleep and access too hot showers. As far as Kae was concerned it was pretty ideal, even with some of the sketchier tenants that came and went. 

As her luck would have it, it was the aforementioned tenants who would be milling around the dingy looking building when they arrived.

Richie nodded as he closed the door and moved to get into his car. The engine roaring to life wouldn't help whatever headache she was getting but Richie couldn't help that much as he pulled out of the spot and started toward Sara's place as it was closer.

"Who is she?" Sara hissed at Richie.

"A kid that needs help. What the hell happened anyways?"

"She pushed me."

"Pushed you?" Richie asked skeptically.

"And then she slapped me. That's what started the fight."

Richie hummed as he considered that nearly wanting to growl but not in the mood to fight with his girlfriend.

"What if you take her back to her place and you take me back to yours instead of mine."

"Not tonight Sara."

"But baby," she reached her hand over to his knee.

"I said not tonight Sara. I'm not sure how I feel with you starting fights with kids," he said to her simply as he pulled up outside of her place. "I'll call you," he said expecting her to get out.

Sara huffed, obviously offended as she got out and slammed his car door. He rolled his eyes making sure she got inside the building before he started to Kae's destination.

When he pulled up he saw the place and the kids around Kae's age. One seemed strung out. Richie thought it was odd and glanced over toward the girl who didn't even realize they had arrived. Looking back to the kids Richie pulled away from the place and headed home.

When he got there he helped lift Kae out of the car and took her upstairs settling her on the couch before moving away to get her some water to try and get her to drink some.

By the time Richie had dropped his girlfriend off, the drugs were in full effect. Kae could hardly hold a coherent line of thought together. 

When he pulled up outside, not only did she not realize it, she'd forgotten where she was or why she was even in the car. 

Even once he was guiding her through the familiar front lobby of his apartment building, nothing clicked. Kae just leaned against him and let him help her inside. Once on the couch she leaned back, closing her eyes and moving her hand over them to block out the light.

Richie came back over and put the bottle of water in her hand setting a bucket down. He knew she likely wasn't going to be able to make it in that if she did get sick but just in case, for the morning.

"Drink this. It will make you feel better," he said as he moved to remove her shoes. "Turn down the lights," he said aloud and the lights dimmed. "More."

When it was nearly dark he moved to leave her be for another minute while he went to grab her a blanket and settled it over her.

She perked up for a second when he started to pull her shoes off, the motion causing her anxiety to spike even through the drugs. Kae was too far gone to resist much of anything, though, and when she wasn't touched anywhere else she relaxed fairly quickly. 

When he moved off she reached for the bottle and took a few sips, then set it back on the table to lean against the arm rest.

Kae was fully passed out by the time Richie got back with the blanket. 

She slept solidly through the night and into the morning. It was only the unfamiliar sounds that woke her. 

Of course coming too was an ordeal in and of itself when Kae found herself in an unfamiliar room. She was actually working herself into a bit of a panic when she caught sight of Richie. That calmed her a bit, but sent her mind scrambling to figure out how the hell she'd gotten there.

Kae burrowed back under the blanket when it seemed he hadn't noticed her. She stayed there a while, trying to recall the series of events that had gotten her here. Unfortunately, the only thing that was really clear in the moment was the burning sense of shame, and the desire to sneak out while he wasn't looking. 

Her last clear memory was leading up to a fight in the club. It was strange. She'd only had the one full drink, and a partial start on a second. She usually avoided physical conflicts. 

And yet her last clear memories were of... starting the fight. She remembered bumping into the older girl and being shoved. Remembered the other advancing on her and poking her in the chest a few times. She even recalled the satisfaction of the sound of her palm striking the woman - but that was about the last clear thing. The rest was spotty. Mostly puking in a parking lot and being in a car.

Richie turned and flipped his eggs over as he liked them over easy. Which meant a few seconds later he was sitting down with his food, his coffee and fork to eat. He had turned off the stove and just started to eat his food trying to avoid the topic of where she was staying currently. He should have honestly left her to her fate last night and just taken his girlfriend home.

"Who is the scrawny black haired kid with the green snot looking swoosh in his hair," Richie indicated to where his hair swooshed from his bangs with his finger. He was finally broaching the subject of the boy that seemed extremely nervous last night when he was about to drop her off, halfway done with his food.
