Elizabeth just sighed quietly at Aleksey as he seemed suddenly high off something, probably the drugs he was being fueled, but she didn't complain. And as he fell asleep and she heard his whisper, she gingerly kissed him upon the forehead, whispering softly in a coo to him, "I love you too.. Always.." Right before she carefully got up, only after she was sure he was fast asleep, not wanting to hurt him any more than she was sure she already had from huddling so close.<br/><br/>She didn't want to leave Aleksey, but, frankly, at the time being, all she wanted was to take a warm shower, and possibly get some sleep if she could.  What had be meant, 'Stepping from human to something else'? She had a hard time actually believing she was some sort of witch, but after that little show with the little melody she'd sang, she wasn't quite sure what was real, and what wasn't any more. Writing down on a little paper in her neat hand writing, she left a little note besides Aleksey's bed, in case he woke and she hadn't returned, '<span style="font-style: italic">I've stepped out to get a wink of sleep, hopefully. I'll be back soon. -Elizabeth</span>'.<br/><br/>Elizabeth grabbed her book from the chair where she'd tossed it, holding it close without even realizing before she walked out of the hospital, simply walking back to Aleksey's home and hoping the door wasn't locked- Though even if it was, she knocked just in case, recalling that his mother had returned home, and assuming she'd still be there.
