[ ...Okay, true.

And he'll be seeing that soon enough. Maybe not right then though. Spike, you're getting a ride for now.

At least when they get to that point. Cloud's not the only one who's feeling cozy as they are. It's one thing to make a plan. It's another to follow through with it, especially when he can feel the rise and fall of his friend's chest easing into something more gradual. Something deeper.

-and then the shopkeep busts in like the Koolaid Man.

So much for calm and peaceful. Okay, it wasn't that bad, but he can still take a hint. He makes small talk with them, thanking them for letting him know about the inn and then almost abruptly releasing his arms from around Cloud, helping him to lay down as he moves to stand.
] I'll be right back, Spike.

[ It's the only warning Cloud gets before he leaves the room with the shopkeep to discuss a few more things. When he returns though, he wastes no time in bending down to help Spike sit up again. This time, he's giving his back a check over. ] I should probably wrap this before we head out. It's gonna get infected otherwise. [ Apparently, it's deeper than he first thought or that potion would have done the trick.

...Cloud might also notice the dried blood on the side of his friend's arm by this point.
