When: Sunrise
Warnings: All sorts?

As the sun rose over New York, the building twitched again, shuddering and shaking through time and space, a shift so quick that it was nearly invisible. Stories, fairy tales, and fables began to go back into their boxes, closed off from where they'd bled into reality, into the selves of the tenants. The building righted itself as brightness enveloped the city.

Things began to revert to their normal selves, whether they liked it or not. First the hallways, then the doors, and then the people, one by one. Rich finery spun back into 100% cotton, rage melted into confusion and despair. Only the memories stayed, unchanged by the building's influence. And, despite the fights and and the strangeness and the magic of the night, the memories the evening left behind may have been the worst of the aftermath.

[Note: If the sun has not yet neared rising for your character in the Transformation Log feel free to take as much time as you need to finish. The overall building, however, will be moving forward as of this post.]

His hand immediately sought hers, resting atop it with a heavy grip immediately loosening. He let out another yawn and shook his head. "No I'm fine." His tongue ran over his teeth and then slid over a cut on the inside of his cheek. He flinched just a little at the irritated wound, realizing he must have bit and cut himself when he hit the ground. "Guess I was more tired than I thought," he mumbled, although he was irritated as he hadn't felt that tired last night. All nighters normally weren't a problem with him. "You sleep okay?"

She caught the flinch and it made her bite a little harder on her lip as she tugged on a stray bit of hair. "No, it was me; I made you fall asleep when I did. It's part of- Sleeping Beauty. I should have warned you." Rosalie looked down at her hands. "Are you sure you're alright?" It occurred to her that it was morning and that her absence had almost certainly been noticed by now. As soon as she made sure he was okay she would check to see how much trouble she was in with Rick.

"Hm, makes sense." He had wondered why she was so nervous but once she explained it was part of her story, realization slid over his features immediately. Sleeping Beauty sleeps, and so everyone else did as well. When she was up, everyone else awoke. Impressive, although he hadn't quite decided if it was a helpful power or not. Still, it wasn't like he had much room to talk, him turning into a frog and all.

When she looked down he pressed a kiss to her forehead, and then tilted her chin up to give her a quick kiss on the lips. "I'm pretty sure I'm going to live somehow. Going to make some coffee though, just in case. Want some?" He flashed her a quick grin before he headed towards Ileana's room. She would probably be waking soon, now that Sleeping Beauty was up. "Illy?" he called after a few knocks. His hand gently began to turn the knob and once he saw it was unlocked, he began to open the door. He called out to Rosalie over his shoulder. "Do you want anything for brea--Where'd she go?" Complete disbelief crept into his voice, turning his question flat. The door completely swung open to reveal an empty bedroom and, to Stefan's complete irritation, an open window.

As soon as Stefan had stepped away to check on Ileana, Rosalie took out her phone. There was nothing from Rick, but to her surprise she had a message from Boyd instead. She skimmed over it, then had to read it again, slower, as the room seemed to empty of air.

She glanced up at Stefan, wide-eyed and pale-faced. "I don't think I can. I'm so sorry; I have to go, my friend, she--" Rosalie trailed off numbly at his question. "What? What happened?"

Stefan had his hands thrown up into the air before the hit the wood with a soft pound. "She fucking took off, that's what." He had thought it was weird that he hadn't heard another peep from her last night but he had figured that she had fallen asleep; and the prince had figured that she finally listened to him. Needless to say, both were completely wrong.

He spun around, ready to storm the building, first check this floor, then the second, and then every in between. Rosalie's faced stopped him dead in his tracks and he immediately moved toward her. "What's wrong? You okay?" He glanced at her phone, wondering what on it could have made her face go so white. She mentioned going somewhere but he was pointedly ignoring it. She wasn't going to go anywhere if he had his way. Not with her like that.

"Ileana did?" Rosalie was a step behind and nothing seemed to be quite clicking. After several deletions, she had finally tapped out a message to Boyd and the response made her suspect that the other woman had left. Instead of moving to the door then, she took a step towards him, although she was mostly unaware of making the decision. "She--" Pause. Rose is gonna get herself killed by runnin her mouth. She couldn't tell Stefan. She trusted him, wouldn't have been here if she didn't, but it now seemed very likely that telling him anything would now endanger not only herself but him and Boyd as well. "Something happened with a friend," she mumbled instead. "I don't know if it'll be okay."

Now Rosalie was right in front of him. Her arms were hugged tight across her chest and she curled up against him, almost childlike in her need to feel arms around her and the rarely given assurance that someone cared.

“Yeah, she did,” he answered although his voice was soft, barely able to stay on topic himself with Rosalie looking like she did. Ileana was a concern, that was understatement, but looking for her would take a long time scouring the building. Rosalie was in front of him now, obviously in distress. He could put everything on hold for just a little while longer.

His response was immediate, barely even aware that he was moving closer until there was little space between them. He tugged her to him, wrapping his arms around her shoulders and pulling her into a hug. “What happened?” The urge to know, to coax her into revealing, made the magic creep into his voice, even if it wouldn’t have any affect on her. It wasn’t just that he wanted to know what was upsetting her. He need to. So he could fix it.

She sneezed several times when the scent of roses drifted up to her face and hugged him back tightly, but didn't say anything. Her life was being used as blackmail to hurt her best friend. Even if it hadn't been dangerous, how did one admit something like that out loud? Rosalie tucked her face into the curve of his shoulder and held onto him. Although she wasn't crying, her body was shaking slightly and all she was thinking about was how all the time she was trying to figure out what was wrong with Boyd, it had been her.

	His hug tightened when he felt her return the embrace, running his hands up and down her back soothingly. She wasn’t crying, but it was damn close to it, and he pressed kisses to the top of her head, to her temple, and whispered soft reassurances into her hair. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It was several minutes before Rosalie had collected herself enough that she could pull away a little and press a soft kiss to the line of his jaw. "Thank you." She muttered it in a couple other languages as well, mostly unaware of what she was saying. "I'm sorry, I-- we should be looking for Ileana, shouldn't we?" She pulled back a little farther, not quite looking at him, arms still hugged loosely across her front.

	She pulled back but he didn't let her go, resting his arms gently on her shoulders. "You sure you're up for it?" He didn't mind the company, and he hoped that her presence would stop him from yelling at Ileana once he found her. But she didn't look at all like she should be running around. If anything he wanted her to go back and get more rest. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She chewed on her lower lip for a few seconds. "Not really," she admitted reluctantly, still leaning into him a little bit despite herself. "I'll stay, if you want, but maybe--" letting out a low unsteady breath as she twisted a strand of blond hair around her finger, it was a moment before she continued. "I maybe should go." Rosalie kept her eyes away from his face as she said it, not wanting him to see quite how shaken she was.

"Go?" That wasn't what he wanted at all. Granted, he wasn't sure how long this search would take but he had high hopes for them returning victorious and all three of them sitting and having breakfast. "You don't have to go. We can go find her." Sure it contradicted his earlier question but at least he would be with her. Still, something, probably whatever was on her phone, was bothering her, and he wasn't going to make her do anything but he wished he hadn't wasted the evening waiting around for a witch.

	Rosalie realized that she needed to talk to Shane about this. "I know I don't have to. And thank you. But I--" don't know what's going to happen-- "would just get in the way. You bring her home safe, okay? And then let me know." She gave Stefan a grateful hug and a quick kiss. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	“I will. I’ll talk to you later?” He smiled briefly and looked as if he was about to say one more thing. Then he seemed to have thought better of it and gave her another quick kiss for good measure. He walked her out, pressed the elevator for her, and then proceeded to run down the stairs to scour all the floors looking for his wayward roommate. (Reply to this) (Parent)
