Angelica awoke to the sound of Rin cursing, apparently losing his game.

"Aw, fuck," he said, looking at the TV. "Stupid shitty mission."

"Be quiet," she groaned, "we're trying to sleep."

"I'm trying to beat this shitty mission," he mumbled, starting the game again. "Fuck this."

"Colorful language," Blaise teased, now awake.

"Great, you woke Blaise," Angelica glared.

"Mm-hmm," Blaise yawned, sitting up. "I feel better now."

"Better, and?" Angelica asked, waiting for him to finish her sentence.

"And hungry," he said, "like really, really hungry."

"Good," she said, sitting up and hugging him. "Rin, have you got anything?"

"You can have whatever's in the fridge," Rin mumbled, concentrating on his game.

"Alright," Angelica said, standing up and walking out to the kitchen, Blaise following behind her.

"What do you want?" Angelica asked, opening the fridge.

"I don't care," Blaise said, "I think I could eat the whole fridge."

"Rin probably wouldn't like it if you did that," Angelica said, pulling an apple out of the fridge and handing it to him. "Have that, I'll see what's in the cabinet that would be more filling."

"Okay," Blaise said, right before taking a large bite out of the apple. "Mm," he grinned,

"You're such a dork," she grinned, hugging him.

He didn't respond, since his mouth was full, but he did hug her back with his free hand.

She pulled away, walking over to the cabinets and opening one. "Hey Rin?" She called out, loud enough that he could hear from the living room.

"Yeah?" He said, still concentrating hard on his game.

"Can I make this spaghetti?" She asked, pulling a box out of the cabinet.

"Yeah. The sauce should be in the cabinet above," he said.

"Alright, thanks," she said, closing the cabinet and opening the one above it. She found the spaghetti sauce easily, taking it out and closing the cabinet. She turned to see Blaise already finished with the apple, knawing the last of it from the core.

"That was fast," she laughed, setting the spaghetti and sauce on the counter.

"Told you I was hungry," he said, still knawing on the core.

"Stop eating the core, you dork," she laughed, taking it from him and throwing it in the trash bin, before opening the fridge and taking another apple out and handing it to him.

"Thanks," he said, taking a large bite from it.

She laughed, closing the fridge again and going over to a cabinet and opening it. She pulled out a pot, then stood up and put it under the sink, turning the water on and filling it.

"Mm, spaghetti sounds so good," Blaise said through a mouthful of apple.

"Anything would sound good to you right now," she teased, turning the stove on and putting the pot on the burner.

"Fair," he said, taking another bite from the apple.

"Hey Blaise?" Rin called from the living room.

"Yeah?" He called in reply.

"Want to come play now?" Rin asked.

"But Angelica's making food!" Blaise said, taking another bite of the apple.
