Nathan flinched. One of the other Spartans had apparently heard of his feelings for Bella. He shrank away. There was a time he would have snapped back with some witty one-liner, probably mentioning a few choice words about the victim's mother.
He was still rather... conflicted, about the whole situation. Whether through some cruel twist of fate, or the universal balance of things finally catching up with him, he had managed to fall in love with the one woman he could never have. Of course, he tried not to say anything. Russel seemed to be a rather insecure and violent fellow, after all.

" fine then get outside now " called Elias inside to Lyra not wanting to be back inside. They could keep their gifts if he decided to bounce he would not be that heartless and take his gifts he got everyone home.

Russ looked over at Nathan, who cringed at what had Elias had said.
"I still forgive you for that... situation we got into. And if Bella says so, go kick Elias' ass."
He then knocked on the door and said, "Bella? It's Russ. Elias is gone. Can I come in?"

After a moment of silence she finally said "fi..fine" and unlocked the door and opened it hurrying him in and then locking the door again. She returned to her position on the bed.
Her silken sheets had the stain of tears added to it; the most prominent being a stain that was once a pool of blood that flowed from her hand as that stain had become permenant and no amount of water would was away that scar.
" wha..what do you want " said Bella quietly in between the sobbing that she had little control over and who was wrapped in the blanket she often slept in.

Russ then got on the bed and wrapped Bella in an embrace. "Just wanted to see how you were doing after that jackass insulted you. I'll let you punch him in the face if you really want to. Besides, this is frigging Christmas, you don't wanna be locked in your room crying!"

" Insulting me.....he was telling the truth " said Bella. " This would not be the first Chirstmas alone nor would it be the first one I have spent in my room crying..." said Bella softly burying her face in Russell. " I don't want to go back out there...they will make fun of me or think/say bad things about me" whispered Bella.

Russ rubbed her back as he attempted to soothe her. "They're not going to say that. In fact, if they think anything about that comment, chances are they'll be thinking about what a complete dick Elias was when he said that."
He then thought for a second. "Then again, I may have brought that on myself, in which case I apologize. Come on, come out!"

" You promise " asked Bella wide-eyed.
" well alright...I guess I can go back out there...with you at my side....hold my hand " asked Bella getting up and examning herself she looked presentable for the most part. She put all of her trust into him to lead her out there safely

Russ opened the door. He wasn't afraid of love... he embraced it (how ironic a word choice for the situation.)
If he saw Elias he would glare at him as nobody had ever been glared at before.

Bella cautiously walked with Russell at her side back out to the party. She took her former seat on the couch not saying a word.

((OOC/ Didn't know Speckzilla had posted. xD))
Justin looked around carefully before adjusting to allow room for Bella to sit back down. Upon her sitting down though, he leaned over and began to whisper a number of rude things about Elias before stopping mid-sentence, and asking aloud to the room, "So... there any eggnogg?"
---------------------
Zaku exited the Taxi van, taking a door with him in his egress. The huge Zealot simply ignored the damage, striding out with his huge back of gifts in tow. Rakka stumbled out of the car, still loaded with Inwa's surplus luggage. The Fleet Master growled to Katar, "Do not tell any but Otto that I am here, and make sure it is discreet. I am supposed to enter through the chimney, I do believe."
((OOC/ I have a fun Christmas debacle planned, so no one notice Zaku =D)0

((OOC/ I have a fun Christmas debacle planned, so no one notice Zaku =D)0 OoC: I'll notice... but with a twist. Nobody will know, Ares.) Russ looked out the window by chance. He saw an Elite... and he was dressed like Santa Claus. He supressed the urge to smile and point and laugh at this, and returned to normal. He'd let everyone else figure out first-hand. In his mind, he was laughing though. Not every day you saw an Elite in a Santa costume... but then again, it also wasn't every day you were fighting Forerunner rejects for control of the galaxy and species survival.

" yes of course....anyone else care for a drink " asked Bella needing one herself. Otto held his empty bottle to signal he needed another. *** Katar barged in the door...knocking it off its hinges. He grumbled as he fixed the door....or rather got it back on its hinges there was already a hole in it...hopefully not caused by him. He saw the worm and some female were outside. " erm...hello...sorry about the door...used to them sliding...and everything..." said Katar before standing over Otto and saw Katar younglings starting at him wide eyed. He flashed a Sangheili grin at them. "your...package has arrive...the red one " whispered Katar still standing over the one human he could stand.

Russ simply looked at Katar, who had barged through the door. "God, if you're doing that now imagine what we're going to be doing when we're drunk."
He then laughed, and then cringed at the thought.

Zaku huffed, clinging to the wall of the house. The huge alien, dressed in a huge red Santa Clause (or to Otto's children, Santa Klaus) coat and hat, was by now fully out of Russ's line of sight. The Sangheili reached over the edge of the roof, hooking his hand around a gutter... aha. Flexing, the hulking elite clutched at the gutter with his other hand, putting all of his weight on it. He pulled up, and he heard a creak.
The Ship Master's sapphire eyes literally expanded to the size of large saucers when the gutter groaned and slid. Zaku immediately slid to the left at the section of gutter he had been clinging to detached from the side of the house. For a second, the Zealot relaxed... and then, the section of gutter he was now clinging to creaked. He froze in horror... and leaped to the side, clinging to another section of gutter. The gutter he had previously been holding on to also fell of the roof... and the gutter Zaku clung to was creaking.
Quickly, the Ship Master pulled himself to the side, moving across the gutter sideways as fast as possible. Behind him, the gutter was ripped off the wall, and went flying off the house. After about thirty seconds, Zaku was almost back to where he had begun... he was running out of gutter. The Zealot made a snap decision, then. He leaped up instead of sideways, sending the entire rest of Bella's gutters flying off the house's main floor. Zaku landed with a heavy "WHUMP" on the roof of the house. For a second, all was calm...
... and then the swedish-style shingles began sliding. Zaku barked out a series of loud Sangheili expletives, and ran forward. Not very fast, albeit, but with every footstep he sent more shingles flying off the roof and into the snow below. The Sangheili spent several seconds treading shingles before he leaped forward, tackling the chimney nearby. He clung there, shivering with surprise and shock. Then, he remembered... he had to go down this brick pipe her was holding on to...
((OOC/ Hey, have Katar and Otto try and cover for Zaku by asking the kids if it could be Santa. xD))
