I raised and eyebrow but said nothing. Instead I simple gripped her shoulders, pushing my other arm into the back of her knees and lifting her off the step.
I'm not as weak as I look, you know.
I grunted, charging up the rest of the stairs to our room. A man saw us in the hallway and raised an eyebrow, a smile lighting on his lips. I didn't bother to try and contradict his thoughts, I simply rolled my eyes and opened the door, setting Lea down inside.
Is this alright?

Leazra flopped to the floor as soon as Kakashi let her go. She winced at the pain that triggered on her shoulder, but otherwise, she laughed. "Quite."

Is there something you want me to get for you, or will you be alright?
I asked, glancing around the room and taking stock of what was in it. It was pretty nice, actually, and I was happy it was for the money we were paying for it.

Leazra shook her head, still lying quite contently on the ground. Her heavy ringlets of hair spread out every which way on the floor, and she managed to force a painful grin up at Kakashi.
"I'm fine just where I am thanks..." she said. "But you ought to get some sleep, I believe."

Yeah, and you're just going to sleep on the floor, right?
I replied, sliding down the wall to a sitting position. I imagined we were both a bit pathetic looking at that point, but then I realized we could look as pathetic as we wanted, since we were the only ones who would really care.

Leazra winced at the pain that plagued her wounded--but now healing-- shoulder. Despite a shade's skin's rapid healing rate, blood still oozed out onto the floor of the room.
"Meh... I don't think the innkeeper's gonna like blood on his nice sheets, anyway," she reasoned. "Though I may go into town again and find some new clothes."

The innkeeper can go stuff a sword up his butt for all I care. He's rich enough, he can get new sheets.
I replied, glancing down at her. I ran my hand through my hair quickly, realizing only afterward that I still had Lea's stick blood on my hands. I looked around the room, sighing as I saw a door leading into a washroom. This really was a nice place if it had something like that.

Leazra smiled to herself. "Yeah... I'll move in a moment. I don't really feel like getting up right now."
However, she tilted her head and looked at Kakashi as he went to the washroom.

Alright, fine. I'm going to wash up, so, don't go and get yourself shot again, alright?
I explained, trying to lighten the mood. I wasn't sure if I thought it was Leazra's spirits which needed lifting or my own.
I shut the door, looking down into the tub filled with hot water. Apparently it came with the room, because I hadn't asked for it. I shrugged anyways, though, stripping down and getting in. The water burned my skin, but it felt so good I didn't care. the dirt form the road and Black Moon almost peeled off me.
A half hour later I emerged from the tub, drying myself off and dressing in fresh clothes. I eyed the tub for a moment, watching the swirls of red and black with interest. Then I got bored, and I left the room, returning to the bedroom.

As Kakashi left the bathroom and re-entered the bedroom, he found that Leazra was not there on the spot she was lying in. Nor was she on the bed. She was nowhere to be found.
However, he could hear silent rustling in the closet of the bedroom.

Lea?
I asked, cautiously edging toward the closet. I had no idea why she would be in there, but part of me wasn't surprised. I guess I'd so many strange things in my life I had gotten used to... people in closets.
I cracked open the door, peeking inside.
Lea, you aren't... aren't eating anyone, are you?

Suddenly, the doors sprang open and out dropped Leazra, thudding onto the floor. She wasn't in her regular clothes anymore. She had found an extra nightgown in the closet and apparently changed inside while Kakashi was using the bathroom.
"Well, you were using the bathroom, so I had to change somewhere," Leazra said, smirking.

Well, um...
I looked around, trying to come up with another option besides the closet, but I couldn't find one, so I simply shrugged.
Right, well, how is your shoulder feeling?
I asked, offering her my hand to help her up.

"Thanks," Leazra said, accepting his hand with her uninjured one and pulling herself to her feet. She rolled her shoulder a bit, wincing here and there. "Uh... It's... okay, I guess. Still a little sore."
She sat down on the bed, looking at him. "What about you? This is the first time I've actually seen you with a worried eye." She snickered.

Oh, I'm worried all the time, you just haven't known me long enough.
I replied, stepping backward until I reached one of the beds. I fell backward onto it, staring up at the clean, pristine ceiling. What else should I do?
Ready to sleep?
I asked, sitting up again.
