---------------------------------------------------------

Early next morning. Nelli wakes up and groans feeling a bit sore from the unusual bedding. His bed was comfy but she wasn't used to it. She tossed and rubbed her eyes. Pushing her exhaustion aside. She looks over the edge of the bed seeing the floor empty. Toxic was no longer there. But the place was still relatively quiet. She slips out of the bed and pushes her hair back. She puts her hair in a messy bun with a band she had on her wrist. She makes her way to the door and opens it. The bay doors are open. The air is a bit humid but cold at the same time. She makes her way to the bay, toxic and al working quietly on cars that were parked in the bay. Neither of them had heard nelli. She turns an ear and goes for a chair. As she sits the chair creaks and toxics left ear turns he looks in her direction and smiles. 

“Good morning nelli.”

Al turns as well and offers a smile

“Good morning Lil lady”

Nelli smiles and nods.

“Good morning. Thanks for letting me sleep in. And sleep here it was nice of you.”

Toxic nods and shrugs. 

“I'm happy to. I don't have many people who stay the night.”

Al speaks up

“What he means is he's single-”

Toxics ears perk and he quickly passes an annoyed glare at al. 

“What, I'm just trying to help you.”

“Al I don't need help-”

Nelli giggles and tries to change the subject to avoid the weird tension.

“Hey toxic. I was thinking we had so much fun last night why don't we catch a movie tonight.”

Toxic smiles. Grateful for the change of subject.

“Yes, that sounds amazing. I uh wait what about ur mom.”

Nelli nods slightly.

“I'll swing by in a bit and spend most of the day with her and if u want u can come pick me up at my house. If that works for you. You can even meet my mom. She would love you.”

Toxic smiles. His tail curled slightly. Al notices and smirks.

“Who knew old lady talk made you happy son.”

He stated. Toxic growled and passed a glare of warning to al and he quickly threw his hands up in mock surrender. Al quickly went back to working on the car he had in front of him. 

Toxic smiles at nelli.

“Sounds like a plan. Oh and your cloths u wore if u whanted to change back into them are in the bedroom on my dresser. They are all clean.”

Nelli smiles and nods.

“Thanks toxic.”

Toxic nods and Nelli goes back to the bedroom and closes the door so she can change. She pulls the clothing from his dresser top, knocking down a pill bottle in the process. The pills Toxic must take to keep his body from quite literally giving in on him. She picks it up and reads it. She doesnt recognize the name. She shrugs and puts it back. She puts her black sweat pants on and the rest of her clothing. The clothes had a shop smell infused in them. A familiar smell. Like the smell of his sheets and his blanket she slept with. Both of which she loved for that smell. She held the collar of her hoodie over her nose and inhaled the scent. It was strong. Potent even. But in a good way. Like addicting. She could feel her mind wondering. To the dark corners of her mind were pictures and thoughts of toxics rough body onto hers. His hands explored the patterns on her fur. Her body quivered from the thought. She shook her head and sighed. She pulled it to her nose again and sat down on the bed. Closing her eyes and inhaling deeper. She could feel herself being consumed by the thoughts of his hands on her. Wondering..exploring the curves. The creases.. the valleys and dips… the folds.. her breathing became a tad labored and she could feel the butterflies awakening in her stomach. She opened her eyes and slowly dropped the collar of her hoodie. The scent being pulled from her nose. Though she swear she could still smell it. Taste it. The sweet smell of grease and the thick smell of oil. Labor. All of it. It was hitting her at once. She shook her head hard and rubbed her face.
