Surprise registered on her face as she actually heard him speak and shift about a bit. Elena had thought that he would be knocked out after the beating he apparently took but surprisingly he was still awake enough to not only speak but also apologize. As he made a move to get up Elena's hands shot out and hovered around him just in case he should fall back down again. He might be well enough to speak coherently but he still looked pretty beaten up and she didn't trust him to not pass out at any minute. Whoever had left him there had done a very good job of leaving bruises on him though it looked like he got ganged up by more then one person. Right now she really couldn't imagine what he could have done to warrant that kind of reaction. I don't really think you're in any... Before Elena could finish her sentence he had pushed himself up off the couch and stood up for a couple of seconds until he took a step and was now lying on the floor. Yep, it didn't look like he was going to be going anywhere with the injuries he had on him. Sighing, Elena bent down to see if he had cracked his head from the fall but it didn't look like he'd done any more damage. The woman frowned as he spoke while her blue eyes looked over his body to see if it would be dangerous to move him or not. It didn't seem like he had anything really broken but she'd probably have to call a doctor to get him check out just in case. For some reason I doubt you'll be going anywhere by dawn. Come on, let's get you back up on the couch. Leaning over him she grabbed onto his shoulders again and struggled to help him back up and onto the couch. Elena was by no means a very large person and standing at 5'6 she had quite a bit of trouble getting him back up on the couch though finally she did manage that feat. Sit still while I get you a blanket and a pillow. That was an order and not a request as she walked away hoping he wouldn't try to move again. After shuffling around in the hall closet for a bit she managed to find a fleece blanket and a pillow in there. Putting the pillow on the side of the couch she pushed him down gently so he was resting on top of it before putting the blanket over him. When she left work less then an hour ago she had thought she would have a peaceful night but instead she had somehow managed to bring a complete stranger into her house. Part of her was yelling at her telling her how completely stupid this was but then another part was saying that he wasn't in any condition to do anything bad to her place. Pinching the bridge of her nose she sighed heavily before standing back up and looking down at him. Go to sleep and don't do anything stupid. Then in the morning you and I are going to have a long talk. She had no idea who this man was or what he was doing out there. Hell, she still had no idea what his name was but right now she was too tired to care. Goodnight stranger. With another sigh she turned off the light in the living room and made her way towards her bedroom. The part of her brain that controlled common sense was yelling at her for not even thinking of the dangerous of what she was doing but it was drowned out by the drowsiness she felt as she got changed and threw herself on her bed.
