Yet another Dare/Evan text- and another for Izzy!

[fryn]

Takumi woke late that morning, emotionally frazzled by last night and trying to do his best to support Izzy. He'd left as soon as Jett had returned, getting the feeling they'd need to be alone. Bedore he'd gone, though, Izzy had told him he had to still go to the bowling afternoon. Seeing as though he'd been one of the trio of instigators he reluctantly agreed. Whewther she'd join him would remain an unknown until Sunday afternoon. He'd be surprised if she made an appearance, though, given what had happened.

He yawned and rummaged for his phone, frowning when he located it inside the bedding and down in the region of his left knee. How had it ended up there? Takumi shrugged and started to write...

'Hai Dare-kun. Change of plans. I can now make it to the bowling again. I will see you there this afternoon! Takumi'

He hit send and then altering the name he repeated the process for Evan.

Was he doing the right thing? Should he still have cancelled and been with Izzy? But then she had her brother and she wouldwant him around her at this time. All he could do was maintain contact throughout the day... and pray she was alright.

He drew up his phone once more...

'Izzy. I hope you managed to sleep and that this morning things look less heavy...' He wasn't sure that was the right word to use but couldn't think of another one. '... Are you sure I should go bowling? If you want me to be with you please say ok?'

He broke off with a frown, not wanting to suffocate her with his attention and yet also not wanting to seem uncaring. The fine line between those two was virtually invisible. '... You will be in my thoughts all of the time. Takumi'

He sighed deeply and hit send...

[Dare Madison]

Dare wasn't sure what was going on with Takumi, but the multiple messages changing his mind about bowling were a bit disturbing as they weren't like his Asian friend. Hitting reply he began to type. I am glad you'll be there as it will be more fun with you, but if I can help with whatever is going on please let me know. I have a lot of resources.I also have a lot of food left over if I can send you some. He wasn't sure if things were in his immediate family or not. It was kind of frustrating as he really wanted to help somehow. He also wanted something to keep his mind off Mike who seemed to have cooled off the evening before. Dare felt panicked that he had finally found someone that seemed to return his feelings, but then turned away so quickly. His first instinct was to get depressed again and blow off his plans for the day, but he had obligations to the charity auction event as well as bowling. Dare showered and dressed in typical clothing for himself and then went to gather up the guitar his father was donating to the auction. He thought it best to take that to the Edward's estate first and then he could head to the bowling alley to wait for people.
