Cornelious. Gods, he hated that name. Everyone called him it, and it always rubbed him the wrong way, and usually was a boner killer during intimate times, but admitting his name to anyone else felt as if it made his name less... special. It was something close to his heart. A name not fit for someone who was rich, but a child who would sleep in booths while his father worked the night shift.
A sigh left Aleksy, it felt as if Araceli had taken another stab at him. A small sound of noise left him when she helped him up. He leaned heavily on her and limped, each step causing pain to tremble his bones. "Just one night," Aleksy breathed. "I just... one night. Then you can have the rest."
He wanted a bed that wasn't defiled by terrible memories. One that was fresh, and warm...
"But, I suppose you're use to sharing beds too," Aleksy said, pointedly. "I can't be the only whore here." He said so tiredly, purposely being aggressive because now he seemed so weak. "If there's no one else, I wouldn't mind. So long as I don't wake up on the floor."

"Ha." Araceli said dryly, her words rolling off of her lips angrily. "Jokes on you, slut puppet. I haven't slept with anyone in a good while. You're on your own for the whore wars." She sneered and glanced away.
To be honest, she was telling the truth. Ever since he had cut off their relationship, she didn't open her heart to anyone. There were physical meetings, sure, but that was only really when she was drunk or otherwise unable to completely process why she needed to be intimate with someone. Se craved it- and those were the times she gave into temptations.
But she had been running odd jobs to gain money to move to Letha for a little while- so those sort of things hadn't happened in a while.
Not that Aleksy needed to know that.

In Letha now, Araceli took a moment to glance around. Perhaps Aleksy had gotten worse over the trip- and they were desperate for help.
Only sounding slightly worried, Araceli briefly assured Aleksy.
"We'll get you help...okay? Don't..."
Don't die.

Aleksy shivered, possibly too tired to get up because he had found somewhere nice to sit. "I-It's infected..." He ran a high fever and had began to talk in his sleep, mostly from nightmares. Sweat clung to his skin, making his hair stick to his forehead. His eyes flickered up to her, unable to focus enough to reach her eyes.
"I'm sorry I wasted your ticket," Aleksy murmured, closing his eyes.
Bixpi cooed quietly, worry bright on his face, but even he seemed to be affected by some bite of fatigue. The lemur then climbed on Araceli, wrapping his arms around her shoulders and pushing his face into her shoulder, letting out sad noises.
"Thank you... for helping... but..." Aleksy sighed, shaking his head. With the way things are going...
