Feuer only feels confusion as Stahl pulls her along. How would she know what he was thinking? He's just gone insane, it seems.

"Stahl? Hey Stahl? What's your deal? You alright?" Feuer tries to tug away from the taller teen, but fails.

Stahl suddenly pulls her against the side of her home and hugs her. She struggles to get free but gives up after realizing she's stuck. Part of her likes it, but she doesn't understand the feeling. It's been too long since someone has hugged her.

Stahl realizes what's happening and shoves Feuer away. He's embarrassed and confused by his own feelings. She trips and falls to the ground. She stays completely still and Stahl begins to reach for her but she snaps her head up to look at him and glares.

"What the hell man?" She pushes off the ground and a sharp pain runs through her arm. She holds back the wince and shoves past Stahl. She goes to her room and shuts the door. He follows into the house but stops at the stairs.

Stahl stands still. Why did he do that..?

Stahl stands there in shock and shame.

  "Hey Stahl, got a sec?" Sen calls from the top of the stairs.

  Stahl blinks and snaps out of his trance. "Y-yeah.." Stahl slowly makes his way up the stairs and into Sen's room.

  "Can you help me?" Sen sits in the midst of the destruction. "I cleaned most of it up."

  Stahl looks around, his face unreadable. "Uh... sure."

  So they spend most of the night cleaning, giving Stahl time to think, unfortunately.
