Toji pulled the sleeve of his shirt up so she could work on his cut. "Well, then. I guess you've learned your lesson so you won't have to come over here anymore." His tone was teasing. This was a lot different from yesterday. But he'd just been really, really angry yesterday. About everything. Getting detention, the fact that she was being annoying--in his opinion, that is. Things hadn't been going his way at all this entire week and it just sucked. Now that he wasn't at school and--despite the fact that he was hurting--had been less tense, less irritated today, so it was easier to talk to her. He really could be a sweet guy when he felt like it.

Lacey laughed lightly, smiling under her breath. "I'm sorry I made you so p***ed yesterday. I know now what you meant, now when I came here, It opened my eyes." She put the bloody gauze pad in a plastic baggie along with all the other bloody alcohol drenched stuff. She lightly pressed a dry gauze pad against his warm skin and pulled out medical tape and taped the edges of the gauze. "How did you get these? You know that I'm still free to listen. I'm okay if you don't tell me." She put away the medical tape and pulled out the cotton wrap. Her other hand moved his elbow up so she could go all the way around his armwith the wrap.

Toji held his arm up for her and didn't answer right away. Instead, he just glanced around his room. He and his family lived on the 'Outside' of the Sohma estate. This particular one was smaller, but well-kept as far as the quality went. Of course, the house was often dirty. His mom did her best, but he could see how it could get hard for her. His dad made a big mess constantly. Toji, though, kept more to himself.
He finally looked back at her. "A family member did it," he said simply, quietly, jaw clenched slightly at the memory of last night.

"Oh," Was all she could say. Well, she really didn't say it. More like stuttered it. She continued to wrap his arm. She felt awful. She had lived her whole life without this kind of crap. She was so self-centered sometimes. "...so...Th-this is what you m-meant...the game... I see now."
Lacey wrapped his arm up and snipped the end with scissors, and taped the end with the medical tape. She moved the end of his shirt back down his arm. She went over to the trash can threw all the bloody stuff away. She smoothed her skirt and and sat on the other end of the bed.
((Somehow, maybe he changes into his cursed form... just an idear xD))

((Maybe in a little bit. XD Depends. Might make her wait.))
Toji laughed bitterly. "I wasn't talking about myself really when I was talking about how everything's just a game or any of that other sh**," he told her, meeting her eyes. "I was talking about my parents. Marriages can't work out. Families can't work out. I mean, seriously. Did you get a good look at my mom? Thirty minutes before you showed up she was screaming and my dad was yelling at her." He shook his head. "None of the attempts at families have ever worked out in this huge, d**ned family," he said angrily. It seemed that with most of the Sohmas, either something happened to one of the parents or to a kid. Or both. It didn't matter. Families just couldn't work, in his mind.

"I should know... I lost my Dad when I was five." Lacey said slowly. "But I like my step-father. He makes my Mom happy. So, I can say I'm blessed for it."She laughed kinda awkwardly.

---Silence---
"I didn't really know him, so it's not like I'm suffering."

Toji nodded slowly. "I guess you're a lucky person then, huh?" he said simply, shrugging. No, he wasn't mad even though his words were fairly hard--maybe even stiff. He shifted from his sitting position so he could lay down on his bed. He put his hands behind his head, providing a sort of pillow, even though there was a pillow on the bed anyway.
"So, feel like going out with me yet?" he asked her, smirking. "Maybe I won't get bored with you."

"Bored with me?"She grunted and ignored the ugly comment. She looked at her hands, blushing sadly, then looked at Toji. "And I told you, I'm still not that desprate remember?" She smirked back. And rolled her eyes.
"Besides, I'm boring..."She laughed.

"The girls who admit to being boring are never, ever boring," Toji suggested. "They're the type that keep people guessing without even meaning to." He smirked at her. "What's desperate about it? I'm asking you out. It's not like you begged me to," he pointed out.
In all honesty, Toji had no freaking idea as to why he was so persistent. She was interesting, that was for sure. What scared him, though, was that he might actually be falling for her. That couldn't be good.

"Well I'd be a dissapointment. ((sp?)) Sorry." She shrugged. She was boring. In a 3rd year physics class, on honor roll all the time and boring lifestyle. Typical goodie-goodie.
