Liz nods, looking away as she pulls the sleves down away to cover the bruises

Jace had seen the bruised on her wrists in the car. "It's okay. You don't have to hide those bruises." He told her quietly.
"I hate seeing them. Just reminds of what happened." She says softly. She almost felt like crying but she wouldn't let herself do that
Jace smiled back at her. He wondered more about her, but wasn't going to pry. She would open up when she was ready.
She sits in a chair at the breakfast bar and looks around at the house. I was the nicest house she had stayed in yet
"Well we don't have much right now but let's see." He opened the fridge which didn't have much. Some fruits, milk, soda and leftovers from a few days ago.
He looked at the fruit basket and there was a bunch of ripe bananas. He grabbed one and closed the fridge. "Incoming." He said, tossing the banana to her.
She lAughts "cat like reflexes!" She says joking and makes a clawing motion into the air while adding a hiss for effect
Jace laughed, smiling brightly. "Good thing you caught it. I've had fruit hit me in the head, it really hurts. "
Liz laughs "I've been hit with a lot of things...can't say fruit was one of them." She says, intending it mostly as a joke even thought it is true
Jace knew that she was serious even though she said it in a joking tone. "Well I've been hit with a lot of stuff, especially at work. Not normally fruit though."((Is it okay if he is a cop?)
"I'm a police officer." Jace responded with a faint smile. He was training to work with police K-9's.
She instantly brightens up "I love dogs!" She says happily. It's the first time she had been genuinely excited in his presence
Jace smiled brightly seeing Liz look so excited. "Well that's a good thing considering I'm almost finished with training to be a handler of a police K-9. "
"Yeah. I don't know what dog I'll be getting yet though." Jace smiled brightly. He was glad to see Liz looking so excited.
"Most. This class is mainly German Shepherds, but there are a few Labradors and some other breed. I should know by the end of the week which dog I'll get." Jace replied.
"Maybe the one you worked with in training." She offers. She finishes the banana and glances out the window "jeez....it's already dark out."
"I don't know. I worked with a lot of them. " Jace looked out the window and smiled. She was right. While they were talking the sun had gone down and it was dark outside.
Liz yawns but she hated sleeping. "Is it ok if I take a shower?" She asks politely out of habit. She had to ask to do much of anything at the home
"You don't have to ask but yes. The second door on the left, there is clean towels in there." Jace responded.
She goes upstairs and she takes a short shower which was actually quite lengthy compared to what she is used to. After that she dries off and she changes into her pjs
Jace finished the grocery list and stuck in on the fridge. He turned out the lights downstairs and went upstairs to his room.
After awhile her brain slips into yet another nightmare as it had all too often. It starts by her starting to breath heavily, tossing and turning as the nightmare went on
Jace was still asleep, not dreaming. He was a light sleeper so if something happened he would wake up pretty quickly.
After a short while she sits up, waking up with a scream as she throws her arms infrint of her, instinctively in fight modew
Jace heard the scream and woke up. He jumped out of bed. He walked quickly out of his room and to Liz's. He knocked softly on the door before pushing it open.
She is sitting up with her knees hugged to her chest "sorry I woke you up. It was just a bad dream" she says softly
"It's okay. Are you okay?" Jace asked softly. He came into her room and knelt by the side of her bed.
Jace nodded. "Okay." He stood up. "If you ever need me, I'm right down the hall." He said softly. Jace turned back toward the door. He would stay with her if she wanted but thought that she would probably want to be alone.
