Upon waking, Eremis opened his eyes to find Cas beside him, their bodies pressed against one another like a couple of spoons that were stuck together. He pulled his face away from the youth's neck then lifted his arm off of his waist before rolling onto his back. A soft groan escaped from his mouth when a sharp cramp tore across his stomach. Once he realized that his body was in dire need of Tazreen he reached down, beads of sweat popping out on his brow when he didn't find the packet of drugs inside either of his boots. Where…..? Suddenly he remembered slipping the Tazreen into the pocket of the long cloak he wore last night.
Several more minutes passed before he could figure out where he left the damned cloak. Feeling too weak to stand at the moment, he crawled across the room on his hands and knees. Relief filled his dull eyes when he finally reached the kitchen and found the cloak lying over the chair where he had tossed it. After placing a number of crystals on his tongue, he crawled back into the living room with the intention of going right back to sleep. As he reached Cas' side the Tazreen took effect, sending a euphoric rush through his body that left him feeling wide-awake, and quite feisty. Gently, he rolled Cas onto his back then straddled his hips before reaching out to tickle him.
Cas' eyes flew open, his hands automatically clamping down on Eremis' wrists. The young healer bent at the waist and buried his face into the youth's shoulder, his body shaking with laugher. "It's time to get up," he said, a moment later, raising his head and staring into the demon boy's green eyes. Since Cas looked a bit upset about the way Eremis had chosen to wake him up, he decided to apologize. "Sorry. No more tickling, I promise. Can you let go of my wrists now?"
Once Cas released him, he finally managed to get to his feet. "You straighten up in here while I go make some java." Eremis finger combed the tangles from his hair as he walked back into the kitchen. After preparing the java he lit the coal stove and set the pot down to brew then made his way into what he considered Kisa's bedroom. He searched through a dresser drawer until he found a leather cord. As he tied back his hair his eyes fell upon the closet door. Hopefully, Eric wouldn't mind if he borrowed another of his outfits.
He saw Kisa stir upon the bed then open her eyes as he pulled on a pair of dark pants and a long sleeve shirt. "Good morning," he greeted, sounding rather chipper. "Java is almost ready in case you're interested." Without waiting for a reply, he left the room and began to search the kitchen for some food. Since he no longer possessed the healthy appetite he once had, he filled a plate with sliced beef he found in a cold storage box and set it on the table for Cas. He toasted a piece of bread over the hot coals for himself then laid it on a plate to cool before filling two mugs with java and placing them on the table along with a bowl of sugar. After a little more searching he found a jar of jam then sat down to spread some across his bread.
Eremis smiled at Cas when he entered the room, then loaded his mug with sugar and took a sip. "I don't even remember passing out last night," he admitted to the youth. Although he did recall feeling a little ill, he didn't know how he ended up on the floor by the fireplace. "I have to make sure I wear this cloak and black wig when we leave for the brothel so no one recognizes me. I'm gonna do my best to make a lot of big tips today, Cas cause I want us to rent our own apartment as soon as possible. Why don't you check around later and see if there's anything available in the area and how much it would cost us on a monthly basis. We just need a place to crash. It doesn't have to be big or fancy, you know." He took a sip of java then locked eyes with the youth. "You still want us to move in together right, or did you change your mind already?"
