Few weeks later

"Oh come on!" Worick shouted as he barged into the room as I was asleep on Nicolas's bed. I quickly sat up, confused about what's going on.

"Is everything okay?" I asked and he sighed. "When will you sleep in my room?" He asked and I rubbed my eyes slightly before climbing out of the bed.

Nicolas was out running some errands. "Never?" I smiled, poking his cheek before walking out of the room. "But you've been sleeping in Nicolas's room and you both haven't done anything yet with each other. How is that even possible!?" He asked and I blushed slightly as I begin to make myself a bowl of cereal.

"Well it's just not like that I guess.." I said. "Then let me take over." He said, standing behind me but not too close. "Worick.. I don't think that's a good idea. Besides the fact that you bring a lady here every night-"

His chest was now pressed up against my back as he took my bowl of cereal before walking away with it.

I bit my lip slightly and grab my spoon, throwing it at his head. "Don't just take my food!" I screamed as he sat down, picking up the spoon and eating.

"Since I can't have you, I'll torture you slowly by taking your food." He said childishly. "That's cruel.. you know how much I enjoy eating.." I pouted and began preparing to make myself grilled cheese.

"Mhm.. maybe you won't have a problem eating something else, like the guy about to enter the apartment." He said and the door opened. Walking in was Nicolas, who looked exhausted.

I took my sandwich off of the pan, blushing even more than before.

"What's going on?" He signed to us and I quickly stuffed my face with my sandwich.

"Nothing much, just eating. I stole Angel's cereal." Worick said as he signed to him.

I was quickly picking up on the sign language thanks to the book and Nicolas being there to help me. I was only able to hold small conversations though but it was worth it.

"I'm gonna go nap." Nicolas signed before heading into his room.

I glared at Worick and he shrugged. "It's Sunday, aren't you going to go see your father?" Worick asked and I sighed, finishing my breakfast.

"I will but I'll wait for Nicolas to finish napping." I mumbled. "Don't wanna go alone huh?" He asked and I nodded.

"Yeah.." I stood up, washing my dish then drying my hands.

"You don't have to keep visiting him, you know. The Dept is paid off. Why do you keep going back?" He asked.

"He's still my dad.."

"A cruel one at that. The day you came back after paying that dept for him, you were crying. Not to mention the swollen cheek and bruised arm. You shouldn't go back there. Nicolas wouldn't like that either." He said and I looked down slightly saddened.

"I know he still loves me-"

"That's not love." He cut in and my eyes widened in shock as I stared at the wooden floor.
