Life Is Strange: Damage Dealt (Private for devilsnevercry)

[FalloutZone]

Max was shocked but glad that Victoria had picked her up even though she did feel embarrassed about it considering they weren't exactly friends even though she did like Victoria, a lot and thought her photography was really inspiring. Max was grateful for the comfort and cling'd, snuggling into Victoria's side and only whimpered a few times, once when she saw the hospital and a few times in the hallway but this only made her cling even more to the blonde.

Max upon being placed down on the bed instantly wrapped her arms around Kate, smiling brightly, "I've missed you." squeaked Max, surprised by how much her voice had changed recently due to the odd regression happening to her.

Kate returned the hug and smiled, "I've missed you a lot as well Max I hope you've been feeling okay?" asked Kate warmly rubbing the small girl's back soothingly, "You look adorable." added Kate with a gentle smile finding Max's clothes to be cute and took note of how happy Max seemed to be due to her comment.

Max kept her arms wrapped around Kate and stayed in her lap not wanting to leave at all, "I've been okay, how about you?" asked Max noticing the shadowy skin underneath Kate's eyes and how pale she looked. Max felt worried for Kate and protective of her it must not be very nice being stuck in a hospital especially this part considering what all the patients are going through. Kate simply ran her fingers through Max's hair while rocking her slightly almost holding Max as if she was a teddy bear.

Kate looked up at Victoria in shock, "What?" asked Kate only to smile the moment Max looked at her with such a pure look of happiness in her eyes. Kate wasn't fond of Victoria's cocky attitude but that was something she would have to get used to but to be put into Victoria's and Max's care didn't fill her with confidence, after all, Max was pretty much a kid and she didn't know if Max would continue to regress, physically, which only left Victoria and to be left with her? She felt somewhat nervous considering the amount of bullying she had suffered from her but she knew Chole would be around often and she doubted the punk girl would allow Victoria to bully her or at least she hoped and there was always Max who would protect her but she didn't want harm coming to either of them, "I-I'll just need to get dress." replied Kate with a shy smile. She didn't want anyone to see her naked, after all.

Max grinned, "That'd be awesome! Can we look at David's files again?" asked Max, "I think I figured out the lock!" exclaimed Max, excitedly, wanting to investigate some more even if Kate and Victoria would be with them.

Chloe just shook her head "I think that's enough detective work for you super max" she cooed as they placed Kate in the middle of them in the truck with the tiny brunette in her lap. they arrived back at Chloe's house and they all sat in her room too relax.

Victoria looked thoughtful as Chloe dragged Kate and max too her bed "I think you both could use a nap" Chloe suggested as she checked max's diaper. she then grabbed a big shirt and took maxs' clothes off so she could sleap in it. "you get some rest baby" she cooed tucking both kate and max into bed.

Max folded her arms and pouted, "But I thought we needed to find out what David's doing?" whined Max not happy that she couldn't investigate but most of all play like they used to! It felt like they were pirates again searching for treasure but instead of treasure it was important information! Max continued to pout childishly throughout the journey home and only stopped pouting when Kate bounced her lightly in the truck.

Max once again pouted and frowned a little at Chole's suggestion, "I don't want a nap." replied Max who didn't like being dragged to bed and squirmed when Chole undressed her and dressed her again but before she could say anything Kate had placed a hand on her back and Max instantly calmed down.

"I'll be taking one as well, Max," stated Kate, softly, "the hospital has really drained me and I'm pretty sure you could use the rest with what's your body's going through."

Kate wasn't really fond of the idea of taking a nap and felt slightly embarrassed the moment Chole had pulled her over with Max but she knew Max needed the rest and to an extent she did as well even if it was hard to admit and gently she placed her hand on Max's back rubbing gentle circles.

Max was still pouting as she was tucked into bed and turned towards Kate curling up against her and soon enough fell asleep. Kate wrapped her arms around Max blushing a little as she was tucked into bed with Max and glanced a little at Chole and Victoria before closing her eyes and falling asleep.

Max experienced another nightmare but it wasn't as bad because she felt safe in Kate's arms but she did have another accident. Kate slept soundly for the most part except for a small dream regarding her mother who would no doubt probably have sent another vile, hurtful and abusive letter or email towards her after what had happened on the roof.

Max yawned loudly and rubbed her eyes. Was she any different then before? She wasn't sure. Her diaper was wet, very wet and she felt a little anxious over her dream again. Max snuggled up to Kate enjoying the warmth she felt from the religious girl's body and noticed that Kate was still fast asleep. Max glanced over at Victoria and Chole as Kate continued to sleep, heavily, her eye-lids dark from a sever lack of sleep.

Victoria sighed and scooped max up. changing her diaper before tucking her back into kates arms then she smiled too chloe dragging her toward the bed "I think we all need a bit of time too relax" she cooed dragging the punk into the impromptu snuggling pile.
the 4 grirl's slept blissfully for quite some time.

Chloei sighed and went downstairs to start her truck and bring the girl's back too black well with their spoils and clothes. she smiled thinking about something she knew for a fact Victoria had a car. and even though it didn't matter cause her truck doesn't have enough seats for all of themt them she grabbed a booster seat from her closet from when she was little and put it bin the back with their shopping bags.

she got the 3 tired girls into the truck and drove them back too their dorms before leaving. Victoria and Kate brought max too her room and VIctoria packed everything away while ordering the two smaller girl's too get back into bed. she didn't really trust either girl by themselves but together they would be fine and so she made for the door.

[FalloutZone]

Max blushed at being scooped up by Victoria and suddenly realised how small she was compared to the rich girl and couldn't help but wriggle slightly in her arms. Max quickly yawned and rubbed her eyes as she was changed into the new diaper by Victoria and blushed the moment Kate had wrapped her arms tightly around her causing her to be pressed up against the small blonde more then she had earlier.

Max grinned watching Victoria pull Chole into the bed and giggled slightly before falling asleep amused that Chole hadn't said anything to Victoria for that.

Kate woke up when she felt Chole move off the bed and yawned a little curling up against Max even more enjoying the warmth the other girl had. Max in return yawned as well and had her thumb in her mouth which she had been suckling on this entire time.

The two girls walked, tiredly to Chole's car not wanting to leave the house but knowing that they had to get back to halls.

Kate's entire face turned a little red at Victoria's order but she couldn't say anything against the taller blonde, really and soon enough she and Max was in bed together sleeping away. It wouldn't be until later on that Kate would wake up from her own little nightmare regarding her mother but thankfully Max was still sleep.

Kate with a sigh got up and stretched a little in the room. Maybe she could go for a walk? She glanced at the door but she felt guilty for leaving Max alone if she did and she knew she had been put into Victoria and Max's supervision.

[Mahiro]

VIctoria sighed deeply looking at the shorter blonde before shaking her head gently "Where dooyou think you're going?" she asked sternly. "I know you wanna go think but well how abou t this you try and talk too me for a bit...." she said gently "I know we didn't get along much but maybe having a chat with might help" she suggested then added "I'd say talk too max since you're more comfortable with her but well she's just a kid" she said trying to explain her reasoning.

"Also Chloe told me she sleeps like the dead go ahead and hit me" she said honestly then another thought hit her and she grumbled "and if you're still really mad at me you can do that too" she offered seriously she could take a punch especially for this little girl.

[FalloutZone]

Kate looked up at Victoria surprised to see that she had come back into Max's room. Kate for a moment looked away feeling guilty and almost felt like a child again that was caught doing something wrong by their mother, "I was just going for a little walk, that's all, I just needed to clear my head." admitted Kate with a slight frown on her face, "Talk to you? Victoria you bullied me constantly why would I ever want to talk to you about anything I'm dealing with?" asked Kate only to sigh, "I don't know you've been good with Max but...." sighed Kate, "I know Max is a kid," continued Kate, "she's always been a kid." added Kate knowing that it was unfair to drag Max into her problems but she never asked Max to help her at all Max just did.

Kate was taking back by what Victoria had said and to an extent she was actually thinking about, "Victoria," said Kate, "I would never hit you no matter how angry and upset I would never take my frustrations out on other people it isn't right and that includes you." stated Kate firmly with tears in her eyes as she thought of the times her mother had hit her for not being proper and doing the right thing. Kate took a deep breath and sat down on the couch, "I just had a nightmare of something that had happened in the past to me as a child that I'm trying to deal with now, that's it, it's no big deal." stated Kate, firmly.

The only tell-tale sign that Max was even in the room was the soft snoring and the occasional muttering of 'cheeseburgers' and 'pancakes' and the bed squeaking a little.

[Mahiro]

VIctoria sighed rolling her eyes at the girl's peaceful nature before sighing "you're right about that I guess" looking at max and how she'd always looked and acted younger then the rest of them she then took Kate and sighed sitting her down "how about you explain it too me arlirght?" she asked concerned "maybe I can help Being rich has too be good for something" she noted idly as she slowly patted max's hair.

She sighed deeply thinking "you were left in my care Kate I want too help "she sighed deeply "and I know you were left with max too, but at the end of the day she can't even care for herself anymore. and IF you do end up hurting max by doing something stupid, or getting hurt well I don't think we can save you from Chloe." she said in good humor "SO look at me If not for me or yourself or you're other friends..." she turned Kate's head too look at max "DO it for that little girl who freekin' loves you Kate""do it for her Kate tell me everything and help me help you" she said warmly.

SHe sat there and waited for the girl to unload or tell her off.

[FalloutZone]

Kate sighed a little finding Victoria difficult to deal with but she would make it work for Max's sake because she knew how much Max looked up to Victoria but she doubted the blonde knew that judging by her attitude towards Max all the time but at least she seemed to care now which made Max happy to have Victoria's attention despite the circumstances.

Kate allowed herself to be pulled down by Victoria and sat on the bed looking at Max only to glance at Victoria with a slight shrug, "I guess I could try and explain it but I dunno," replied Kate glancing back over at Max, "Mhm," giggled Kate, "Chole would probably kill me," agreed Kate only to look at Victoria with tearful eyes, "I don't want to hurt Max by doing something stupid like that again," stated Kate becoming tearful, "I love her too! But..."

Kate held back her tears, "I don't know how to deal with it, I don't know how to deal with my family especially my mom," paused Kate, "and I know it doesn't matter and it shouldn't," sighed Kate, "I should be used to her by now but with everything that has happened I'm scared, I'm scared that she'll do more then just hit me across the face," sniffled Kate, "I'm scared to go home and I don't know what to do or what I'll do once the holiday's come because I don't know how to talk to her and every little thing I do means nothing," sighed Kate, "a-and I know that I don't matter to her or anyone besides Max but I dunno how much I can take."

Kate wiped at her eyes, "I know that I should just take it and I know that I shouldn't tell anyone because it isn't a big deal but it hurts."

[Mahiro]

Victoria sighed deeply thinking and processing everything the girl said. it painted an ugly picture o fher family life and she sighed "what if me max and chloe were too..." she paused "come with you for the holidays?" she suggested "for moral support Max's parents won't mind since they're in another state and Chloe's will be happy to have the house too themselves" she pointed out "I can even pay for our trip?" she suggested wondering if that might relieve some of the girl's stress "Oh and we can go nuts Christmas shopping for max won't that be fun." she suggested excitedly.

"Would that maybe help with your mother and make you feel any better?" she asked concerned "I mean who could act mean with that face around" she cooed pointing at max
