[It's late at night, somewhere around 3 a.m. Bruce's voice sounds tight, as if he's having trouble breathing properly. He's trying to keep the lingering sense of anxiety at bay, but it's not working particularly well.]
Hikaru? You said...you said I could call if I needed...but it's too late, you're probably asleep and I shouldn't be bothering you. I'm sorry, I'll just...
[ They go home before the fireworks start and he watches Hokaru go through the motions with a heavy weight in his heart. It doesn't take much for him to crawl into bed beside his boy, or for him to wrap his arms around Hikaru's might slighter body -- big spoon, little spoon -- nose pressed into the crook of the younger man's neck until he begins to doze.
He wakes up in the small hours, the room dark, the space beside him cold. Maybe he'll tell you later, how his heart jumped to his throat, how he sat up as it finally registered that you weren't in the room.
Padding out now, feet bare over the cool floor as he goes in search of where you've gone. It's the way the sliding doors to the terrace are left just the faintest bit ajar that clues him in; that and the way Naoki's crouched close, as if watching. ]
[ Where your boy has gone happens to be the balcony. He's curled up on his favorite chair, smoking through yet another cigarette, staring off towards the skyline broken by the trees of the forest.
He had been quiet in the hours before this one, propelling himself through the ride back home and all the little things that came with winding down for the night without much of a word. It had, as well, been instinctive on his part to shy away from the affection you gave him - which subsequently made him feel even shittier than he already did after the fact. But he's unsettled in his own skin right now, sick of being who he is, and he can't quite stop thinking back to how everything went down while you, him and Mae were at the dance tent, at the beach.
Glancing up once he catches your scent and the sound of you on the way to him, but turning away almost immediately. He'll just... take another drag now. ]
[Shortly after this goes up and the responses start going through, Bonnie's on her phone trying to get answers from someone that isn't a raging witch-hater.]
Hey. Do you know anything about the woman talking about her hatred of blood witches and apparently all witches on the network?
[AKA, should she actually be worried? This is probably some form of residual paranoia after Kai and the fact that he was a twin dealing with darker magic, but she'd rather check in with the one person who might have some answers while on her way to Damon's. Because even if that super sniffing hater wasn't planning anything, being alone right now just didn't seem 100% safe or like a good idea.]
I've talked to Melinda once or twice. If you want my blunt assessment... she's pretty far gone. Shit's happened in her world, and she can't seem to see past that.
Avoid her, just to be safe. As things stand, she knows I'm a hunter. What she DOESN'T know is what I can do. Decided that it'd be better if I didn't risk it.

Sorry, didn't have my phone on me for most of the day.
Yeah, that's usually the safe thing to do re: bringing something over for the host. Is it a party or it just you and him/her?
