Shiva actually awoke from her peaceful sleep relatively soon after Ventus left the room for the second time. Oh Arceus, how late was it... Too early yet, so she cuddled up back into the pillows or the mess of blankets and pillows that Ven does call a bed. It was rather comfy though, but when she awoke - she couldn't help but to feel a little lonely again. How often did she already awoke alone after she had to endure unpleasant things with the party? Oh well - She hugged that Snivy-plush tighther in a way to comfort herself, but it felt different than the fluff Cottonee once shed and gifted her Master.

It also didn't took long for her to notice that...feast of a breakfast standing there on the table that belonged to every dorm in a Center and that gave her the spark needed to get out of bed eventually. The note was the first thing she realized about it, and she certainly knew the handwriting. ... ... ... Coffee was actually enough in the mornings to her while traveling, but Toast never hurts, and since she skipped dinner yesterday... thinking of yesterday, that day somewhat gave her cold shivers when remembering. It started neatly, but ended horribly for her well-being. Ven wrote that he was visiting Nathan - oh right, he passed out yesterday. To say it bluntly, that's entirerly his own fault, it's not like someone forced him to battle her and Ven - but it'd be rude to not visit as well, she would prefer to not speak about that at all, but at the same time she wouldn't enjoy to carry the loathe that came from a friend putting her through emotional mayhem. Bless her ability to forgive things. Not that this will happen right away though and like nothin', hmpf. First feelings of being overshadowed and then this additionally... She's not a person one can do everything to and get away with unscolded.

Finishing breakfast, dressing and taking the plate of sliced fruit with her, she soon left the room. First stop by was the counter, where she thankfully accepted back both her blue mouse and her magical fox. According to Nurse Joy, both were fine and battleready again, the night in the Healing Machine certainly did well to them. What would the world of Pokemon would be without the inventor of such a machine... Joy also confirmed that it's one of her travel companions that's laying in infirmary, and expressing who she is earned her allowance to visit Nathan there.

Standing in front of the door starring up to that 'Do not disturb'-sign, the feelings of worry came again. Fear of what may await her - but also the determination that she cannot run away now. Stay strong, my dear one... Taking a deep breath, she knocked on the door to make herself audible, before carefuly entering the room and taking seat beside where Nathan was laying-sitting, before placing the plate of sliced fruit as a gift on the table.

She didn't say anything though, but kept her gaze awaitingly on Nathan.
