Just business

Hestia nodded and looked to Gabriel. "They say we can take Roxy home now."

Gabriel beamed and walked over to Roxine, holding a hand out to her.

Roxine smiled and took it, getting out of bed shakily. Sue handed Roxine her clothes - her jeans were almost unwearable and her top was in dire need of a wash - and closed the curtains so she could change. Roxine stepped out a few minutes later, looking half excited and half nervous.

Gabriel smiled. "As I've already mention, you live with me and the wereleopards."

Roxine nodded. "O-Okay."

Gabriel smiled. "Everything'll be fine."

Roxine smiled back shakily.

Gabriel led Roxine from the room, nodding at the doctors.

Roxine followed, Hestia bringing up the rear. "I've signed all the forms and stuff." Hestia informed them. "So we can just go."

Gabriel nodded. "Good, how are we going to get back to Bloody Bones though?"

Roxine's eyes widened. "Come again?!"
Hestia jumped in quickly. "It's just a nickname!" she assured Roxine. "Call a cab." she told Gabriel, holding out her mobile.

Gabriel rang the taxi. When he was done he handed the phone back to Hestia. "They should be here soon."

Hestia nodded and Roxine glanced round nervously. "Umm...is tehre anything I need to know about the wereleopards?"

"They eat flesh once a month, can change into a leopard." Gabriel shrugged. "Your perfectly safe, they wont harm you."

Roxine nodded slowly. "Oh...kay..."

Gabriel looked up as the cab arrived. "Let's go."

Roxine nodded and got in, ending up sandwiched between Gabriel and Hestia in the back.

Gabriel leant forwards and told the driver a location near Bloody Bones.

Roxine shifted and glanced out the window curiously.

Gabriel yawned boredly and watched the world fly by.

Roxine watched him, pretending to be looking out the window.

Gabriel shifted, exposing his bare chest.

Roxine bit her lip and tried to look away.

Gabriel, not realising his chest was on show, streched slightly.

Roxine looked down quickly, a thousand questions running through her mind.
