"Sit down, I need to get a good look at it." She said quickly, going to grab some water for the painkillers.

Aisling sat down in one of the nearest chairs and then let her arm fall into her lap. She winced as she let it go, and began to study it for herself. It was black and blue and was still hurting, so probably she'd have to lay low for a little til it healed, other than that, it wasn't too bad. Then turning, she caught a glimpse of her face in a mirror, "Oh great. . ." She trailed off. She never really lost the fights that she got into, so what happened this time, and even worse, she felt as though she might have another run-in with this guy soon.

Aurora crouched on the floor next to her, gently taking her arm in her calloused hands. "Damn…"

Aisling winced again when Aurora moved her arm, "That bad, huh?" She hoped she hadn't broken it or anything, a month in a cast would just suck, and would probably end up getting her into a few more fights than normal, "Is there anything you can do about it?"

"Well, nothing seems broken, or horribly sprained, so no cast. But you have a fuck ton of cuts and a lot of bruising."

"Great, just great. . ." Aisling muttered, "So, I'm good to go then? Mikey is probably friggen out right now, so the sooner I can get back home the better, you know?" She moved her arm away a little and nearly yelped, "Are you sure nothing's broken?"

"Like I said, the worst are some bad cuts. Mind if I bandage those up?" She asked, looking up at her.

AIsling nodded a little bit then looked away, "Fine, just hurry up. . .please." She added the last bit quietly, almost mumbling it, "I really need to get home." As soon as she said that a loud banging was heard on the door. She turned and looked out of the window trying to see who it was and mumbled some curses under her breath, "The bastard followed me here. . . Uhm, Aurora, could we finish this up later? I think I need to leave, um, now."

Aurora looked out her window. "You can't get out that way. Go in my room."

Aisling stood up and rushed down the hallway, "First room to the right? Right?" She called over her shoulder as she rushed to the room, and closed and locked the door behind her. She sighed and muttered a few more angry curses at the guy, then tried to come up with some way out.

Aurora opened her door. "Hello, sir? Do you need anything?" She asked politely.

The man just studied her up and down with a sneer on his face, "I was told Aisling was here, and I'd like to finish up the conversation we were having earlier." He crossed his arms and leaned against the doorway, "And before you tell me she isn't here, I have a couple of people who know that she always goes to you after she gets into a fight. And they saw her come in here."

Aurora shook her head. "Sorry, sir, but they were mistaken. She hasn't shown up yet. My cousin did stop by to drop off a box of pop tarts a little earlier, that must have been who they saw."

He raised an eyebrow and staggered forward, "They don't make mistakes, that girl is here. So let me see her now."

Aisling had come out of the bedroom and was listening to the conversation, The idiot. . .How am I getting out of this one? She had no plans or ideas, but she didn't want to see Aurora get hurt, What the hell do I do?

Aurora stood up straighter, brown eyes narrowing. "And if I don't? What will you do, you fucking bitch?" She hissed, throwing her shoulders back, hands curling into fists.

Aisling sighed and made her way down the stairs, "He won't do anything, Aurora." She wedged herself in between the two people, "You get lost." She shoved the guy away, "And you, don't try to get into a fight you know you'll lose."She said turning to Aurora. Aisling glared at the guy looking him up and down, "I told you I wasn't interested, so no should mean no, don't make me remind you of that." She said crossing her arms. The guy looked a little tense and annoyed, his buzz apparently fading, and walked off, muttering curses about the two girls.

Aurora relaxed slightly, shoulders and hands dropping as she let out a breath. "Thanks. Let's fix up the arm, okay?"

Aisling shook her head, "I think I should leave now, it'd probably be better, okay?" She headed over to the chair where she had dumped all of her stuff, "I'll come back tomorrow morning before practice, how's that sound?" She sighed softly, obviously annoyed, "Hopefully that idiot will keep his distance. I don't think I'm in the mode for another fight."

"Are you sure? I don't want your cuts getting infected." She said gently.

"I'm sure I'll be fine, but if you're that worried about me. I guess I'll stay then." She said with a smug smile as she turned back around to face her, "Rorie, by the way, you'll be back for rehearsal tomorrow, the band misses you and our sets aren't the same."

Aurora gave her a thumbs up, smiling as she grabbed her kit. "This'll be quick, promise. But I'll be honest, it'll hurt like a bitch."

Aisling groaned, "HHmph, nothing new you always say that and it always hurts a lot worse." She pulled out her phone and began to scroll through her notifications as Aurora did her thing. Then she noticed a text from a number she didn't recognize, and of course, she just had to see what it was about. She read it quickly, and she skin that was normally pale to begin with became a bit paler, "Hey, Rorie?"

Aurora looked up from her work, having just stared to add bandages. "Yeah?"

"I uhm, I don't think I should head back home tonight." Aisling began hurriedly, "So, uh, god, I feel like an idiot. Can I bunk up here tonight?" She actually seemed a little scared, this was one of the few times she let her tough exterior fall, "I can always find a hotel or something, but you know how those places are."

Aurora nodded. "Yeah. Want me to set you up on the couch, or do you wanna hide out in my room?"
