Ivan made a slight grimace when he watched Sveta's face twinge with pain and he proceeded to pull off to the side of the road, which was thankfully still very much void of traffic. He parked and stretched into the back seat to rifle around for some tissues he kept in the back as well as a neckpillow from a trip he'd taken with his brother not too long ago for work over the state line.
"Here, use this pillow to keep your neck propped up so you're not hurting your head. Here's some tissues too to dab on it." Ivan said as he set them into Sveta's lap. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

Sveta made a slight face, something about Ivan's kindness felt foreign, but she didn't shy away from it. She accepted the neck pillow and braced it around her neck before taking a wad of tissues as well, gently pressing them onto the back of her head.
"Thank you." She uttered, hissing through her teeth as she dabbed her head. |

"Welcome." Ivan said, pursing his lips as he reached out to grab Sveta's wrist, trying to gesture for a lighter dab. "Be careful, you don't want to coax the bleeding on more or something." _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

Fauna pursed her lips and tried to adjust her pressure. Something about Armand and Nat's kids, none of them knew how to be gentle. Everything they touched would break. |

"Alright, just be easy on it, relax. We'll get to Peter's and I'm sure he'll stitch you right up." Adrik nodded. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

"What...What happens after that?" Sveta asked then, looking out the window shyly. She didn't have anywhere to go that she knew of, with no memories she didn't know who even to turn to. There was an element of vulnerability that she didn't know how to cope with, Ivan was literally the only person she knew. What would happen after he took her to a doctor? |

"Oh...I mean...I didn't think about that, to be honest. Um.." Ivan went quiet in thought for a moment. What was he going to do? He couldn't possibly just kick the girl out onto the street after getting her stitched up. She didn't even have a name let alone clothes or money to survive. "I...can figure something out for you." He said to her. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

Sveta wasn't sure if she believed Ivan, but she had to. There literally wasn't anyone else she could rely on. She only hoped it wasn't a lie, and he wouldn't abandon her somewhere.
"Okay." She acknowledged with a weak nod. |

The rest of the drive was rather quiet, only a few words exchanged here and there. They arrived in Peter's neighborhood and Ivan parked the car as close as they could to that wretched Chinese restaurant Peter lived above (his car nearly got towed on three separate occasions because of the owner of said restaurant).
"Not that you're particularly loud, but just a forewarning, Peter's wife or girlfriend or whatever lives with him and last I asked, my mom said she was pregnant, so we need to be mindful of her resting." Ivan explained, ever the good boy. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

"My head hurts so, I don't really feel like making loud noises. So no worries." Sveta said, letting herself out of the car. |

"Do you ever make loud noises?" Ivan murmured before getting out of the car himself and rushing over to offer his arm out to Sveta. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

"I can't recall, but I'll get back to you." Sveta retorted before accepting his arm for support. |

Ivan flushed, not having meant to be heard. He led Sveta up to the back door of the bustling Chinese restaurant. Ivan wondered if they ever closed. He snuck in through the back door before anyone could accost him as they usually did and he guided her up the stairs leading to the little apartment above. He lightly knocked at the door and waited. There was a light clamor inside before the door cracked open and Peter poked his head out, looking bleary with sleep.
"Ivan?" He blinked. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, but my friend here has been hurt and needs to be looked at." Ivan said, frowning. "Did we wake you?"
"Oh, no, I mean...yes, but it's fine, I was just resting with Daisy." Peter said before giving the girl with Ivan a brief up and down, cocking a brow. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

She gave a sort of tired wave, holding up her bloody tissues.
"Hi, I'm...Sveta, I guess. I hit my head, I think." She greeted quietly with a shrug. |

"Hit your head? Jesus, get in, get in, be quiet though, Daisy's trying to rest." Peter quickly ushered the two into the apartment. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |
