Attention still focused on his search for his friend, Lloyd started in surprise when his eyes swept over the face of his missing roommate. "Claude!" Of all the people he might have expected to see, Claude was maybe the last of them - mostly because it had been so long. "Where have you been? I haven't seen you for days!" Days with no hint of what had happened except for trays of untouched food set out on the table each night.

Setting aside his search for the moment, the teen moved to close the distance between him and the blond. "Are you alright?" he asked, searching the other's face. He couldn't imagine any good reason why the nurses would have kept Claude separated from the others for so long.
