 Rose had continued to let the days dwindle by, her food bag soon running low again. Regretting snapping at the stupid boy, she had hoped he'd return soon, but there had been no sign of him. As she sat hunched over by one of the work tables, dimly aware of the constant hum the level provided, she heard a click. Looking up and around, the brunette furrowed her brow. Her skin crawled for a moment as she stood up, approaching the door. She'd probably heard things. Probably. Turning the handle, the door creaked open. Wide-eyed, she quickly jumped into action, grabbing her bag of food and then hastily checking. When the coast appeared clear she hurried down Level 3's hallway.

Rose yelped as she landed on the floor with a thud, falling through a portal. Weakly getting back to her feet, she rushed over to the door, giving it a hearty tug. Locked again. Stomping, she slumped against it and sighed loudly in frustration.

 With a sudden thump Ven fell through the portal, landing directly in front of Rose.

Rose jumped, looking up from her huddled position to find her friend. 'Ven!' She exclaimed, scrambling to kneel beside him and giving him a little shake. Not a moment later a bundle of clothes fell through another portal, a short distance away.

'Rose!' Ven cheered, hugging his friend tightly. His joy was short lived however, a look of concern crossing his face as he thought of Zack's newest lackey.

She returned the hug gratefully, giving him an extra squeeze before drawing back. 'What're you doing in here--are you okay?' Rose asked, frowning when she saw his expression.

'A reward for good behaviour,' Ven muttered as he turned to look at the bundle of clothes in an attempt to take his mind of things. 'What the ******** is this?' he asked, holding out a plain white sweater.

'Gun to my head, I'd say it's a sweater, Ven.' Rose said with a slight smile, settling down beside him and leaning tiredly against her friend. 'Ugh...I'm glad you're here, at least...'

'I missed you too,' Ven smilled, cuddling up against her before turning his attention back to the pile. 'Recon we should split these up between us?' he asked, nodding at the small selection of clothing.

Rose nodded a little '...If you don't mind, anyway. It's been a while since I changed.' The brunette heaved a sigh when she realized there was, of course, nowhere private in the small room to change.

Ven grinned mischievously, the same realization dawning on him as he watched Rose expectantly to see what she would do.

She looked at him, her expression growing flat. 'What's with the face?'

'Nothing...' Ven said in his most innocent voice, the grin still remaining.

'Just give me a sweater.' Rose said with a roll of her eyes, flicking her finger against the bridge of his nose.

Ven giggled, feeling in brighter spirits already. 'If you want to wear anything else I'll just look the other way.'
