Levi nodded seriously and dabbed at Street's head again. Sean, however grinned, and slapped his back. "Nice to have you back, man," Sean told him, Asher nodded too, smiling cheerfully.
"Let's get outta here..." Asher said, Sean agreed. Levi picked Street up easily and waited for Mush. "You coming?" Asher asked before trailing after Sean. "That boy was really cute..." Asher said, obviously picking up an old argument. Sean laughed.
"Ye're worse then Levi, always chasin' after the lasses..."
"Not anymore..." Asher said knowingly, looking back to Levi who was carrying Street like she weighed nothing at all.

Mush took a deep, shaky breath. "Yeh, i'm comin'." He waved a hand at Asher. He looked at Levi and smiled. He apologized with his eyes. He couldn't say it again. He looked down at Street and became disgusted. "Her own sista." He shook his head. "Looks like i ain't yer big brudda afta all Street." He pushed the hair away from her eyes and followed Levi down the stairs. "Where're we gonna take her?"

Levi snorted. "Please, once this girl gets somethin' inta her head, it stays there. I have a feelin' Miss Feely's gonna go runnin' to Mercury as soon as she wakes, claimin' heaven and hell. Street will need her brother, her true brother." Levi said seriously, looking him in the eye. "You hear me, Nick Meyers?"

Mush looked up, startled. No one had used his first name in forever. Part of him didn't think he had an actual name anymore. It was stupid yes, but he'd always been called Mush. He smiled at Levi. "Yeh, i hear ya." Mush laughed at him. "Since when have i been Nick ta ya?" He smiled his goofy smile.

Levi didn't smile, just adjusted Street in his arms. "Since you started actin' like a fool. That's when." Then he smiled lightly. "Don't think you'll get away from her that easy. Lord knows I've been tryin' for years." Levi nodded to Street, who lay against his chest, sleeping gently.

Mush laughed softly. "Don't i know it. At least she's showin' some sign of life now. She looked like she was dead earlier." He looked at Levi, "Sorry i was actin' all head ova heels for a goil. I nearly forgot ya." He gave Levi a small smile and looked down. "We should ah- do somethin' with her." He said nodding towards Street. "Wouldn't want ya ta hold her all day. She might get the wrong idea when she wakes up." He told Levi teasing him. He was in a better mood then he had been in days.

Levi shrugged. "I've never been in love before, but... I'm startin' to understand where you're coming from..." He tried not to glance at Street, but he did. "I'm here for you, no matter what." He nodded sincerly, then set her down on a bench Asher and Sean had stopped out, her head leaned against Asher's shoulder, he began to clean her head again.
"She probably has one of those concussions..." Asher started.
"Street's got a harder head then anybody..." Levi said, smiling slightly. He patted the space next to her. "Take a load off, Mush."

Mush shook his head at Levi's offer. He went back to the office and got clean towels for him. "Here." He said handing them to Levi. Then, once he was sure Street was taken care of, he sat down. He leaned his head against the wall. The next thing he knew, it was dark outside when he opened his eyes. His neck was stiff from leaning against the wall all night. He blinked and rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. He looked around. He saw the figure of Street still against Asher's figure's shoulder. He stood up and nearly kicked Sean. He looked down and saw Levi sleeping right in front of Street.

Sean rolled over and looked up at Mush. "Ye kicked me head, Mush." he groaned. "God..." He said, looking around in a panic. "Grandda's gonna kill me... Comin' home late again." he said. "Tell 'em bye, ey?" He said, rolling onto his knees, stood, stretched, and ran for his life. Or his shins.
Asher blinked awake next. "What time is it?" He asked, then shook his head as Levi woke. "Uh, it's comfortable here." he said, stretching and laying an arm around Street's shoulders. Levi yawned.
"What? Goin' back to Tyler already?" Levi teased tiredly, he was stiff.
Asher flushed. "Yeah, well... I ain't okay?"
"Trouble in paradise?" Street suddenly said, looking at Mush. "Oh, hello. Where am I?" She asked, grinning cheerfully. Then Levi shushed them all.
"Someone's comin'..." A cop was strolling down the street towards them. "We gotta go." He looked at Mush, Asher, and then at Street. She nodded.

Mush made a movement to them all telling them to hold on a second without speaking. He knelt down beside Street. "Can ya walk?" He whispered. He looked at Levi, he looked too stiff to carry her again. Mush could try but Levi had bruised his shoulder in their 'fight'. Street nooded and made a hand motion saying she could sort of. Mush nodded. That was fine he and Levi would walk on either side of her. Holding her up if she fell. "Ok let's go." He whispered. They started off along the street just as the cop rounded the corner. He didn't see them, or didn't care because he didn't call them out. Mush breathed in relief. "Ok where to? Street's house or our's?" He asked Levi, thankful he didn't need to whisper anymore.

Street looked at him like he was crazy. "My house? When'd this happen and where was I?" She asked chuckling softly. Levi rolled his eyes.
"Come on, I know a place." he led them to a building and up several flights of stairs. Levi pushed open the door and revealed a nicely decorated apartment. "See, the landlady who lives down stairs, her daughter likes me alot, and I get this place for free whenever I want. Top floor." He nodded cheerfully.
Street sighed happily, there was a comfy looking bed. She slid across the floor and flopped on top of it, Levi frowned. "I forgot there was only one bed. Well, you guys can have the floor." he said, moving towards the brass bed. Asher grabbed him.
"Um... I'm safe, see, girls have cooties." He winked and climbed into bed by Street, she snuggled against him, trying to get warm. Levi ground his teeth.

Mush clapped Levi on the back. "Hey, let it go, Levi. You'll have your chance." He laughed at him and chose a spot on the floor and sat down. He sighed contently and laid down. He was dead tired. He saw Levi moving out of the corner of his eye, but didn't bother looking up. His eyes shut completely and he fell asleep.
The next morning Mush woke up. Asher was still in the bed, but so was Levi. He shook his head. He had no idea what happened last night, and he didn't want to know. Honestly, he was expecting to wake up to Asher unconsience or something on the ground next to him. At least that hadn't happened.

Not much had happened last night, actually. Street had woken up as the sun began to rise and had woken Levi up, leading him to the bed. He-believeing he was still in a dream and fantasizing again-followed her eagerly. But found himself surprised to find himself next to Asher and no Street. But he fell asleep. Instead, Street had taken a bath and now stood by the stove, cooking them a breakfast.
She hummed as she worked and tasted a bit of the eggs she was now flipping. She blinked and looked at Mush. "Good mornin'! I thought ya boys would like somethin' ta eat when ya woke up. Things have been pretty excitin' lately, haven't they?" She commented, sliding the eggs onto a plate and setting it on the wooden table that had four chairs she had scrounged up. "Come on an' eat Mush. I'll eat with ya." She yawned and sat at one of the chairs, looking up at him cheerfully.

Mush looked at Street and smiled appreciatively. He shook his head. "Yer full of suprises Street." He smiled again and took the plate to the table and sat down. He yawned once more and stretched his arms over his head. He began to eat his eggs slowly. He didn't know Street could cook and he was slightly wary of it. He chewed slowly and swallowed. He took another bite, and then another. They were the best eggs Mush'd ever had. When he finished eating he took his plate over to the sink. He leaned against the counter. "Very good Street. I neva knew ya could cook."

Street grinned cheerfully. "Oh I love ta cook, don't get much practice by it, seein' as I never have anythin' ta cook with... But... I learned ta read from readin' recipes in newspapers and the library. Tell me what ya want ta eat and I can make it outta the things we have here." She gestured to the counter by the stove. It had a few bags of groceries. "Mercury's wonderful. Let me have anythin' I want. So long as Levi works it off." She giggled. "Levi gets paid a bit and he gives me the money for food and the rest for rent for this place. He only has ta pay one dollar a month, can ya believe it?"
