More romance between Graves and Avery in the next one I swear! Ha hope you guys enjoy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Wouldn't touch that if I were you" Nacht says suddenly, I jumped back and looked at him. He held a plate in his hand then picked up his bat with the other.
"I might be able to control when I rust things but if you touch this you won't stand a chance."  How odd he actually cared enough to warn me. He probably just did that so he could still live here without worry. I nod at him anyway and he sits down. Slightly closer to me than before. My attention travels to what he's eating.
"Burnt toast? Do you not know how to use the toaster?" I say confused
"Nah I just have a peculiar taste in food" he grinned eating away. I finish the last of my pizza and head back to the kitchen. I yawn and decide it's time for me to rest. I look at him. So.. I guess he's sleeping on the couch? Definitely not sleeping in my bed. I walk to my bedroom door.
"Erm.. I'm going to bed. You can sleep there I guess." He turns his head so his profile faces me.
"G'night kitten" he coos. I roll my eyes and go in my room, shutting the door. Now that I think of it I should buy a lock for my bedroom too. I sigh slipping on some pj's and snuggle into my bed. Crap.. forgot to shower. Whatever I'm too comfortable now I'll wait for morning. I close my tired eyes. Thinking how long will Nacht stay here... I hope he leaves soon. I drift to sleep. With my thoughts running wild.

I wake up. Almost thinking what happend yesterday was a dream.  But when I come back to reality I realize it wasn't a dream. I sigh and get out of bed. Running my hands through my hair as I walk to the bathroom to take a shower. I open the door and freeze.
"AHHHH!! WHAT THE HELL?!" Nacht is casually standing in my bathroom shirtless. No wonder he can overpower me so easily he's freakin ripped. Wait I shouldn't be thinking about that..I cover my eyes with my hands and my cheeks grow rosy.
"Heh g'morning kitten" he says, probably grinning. I still can't believe he's standing in my bathroom half naked.. at least he has pants on.
"What the hell are you doing Nacht?" I yell at him.
"Eh you said I can go in here if I needed to use it. Just had ta take a shower s'all" I look at him, dropping my hand.
"Umm?? You kinda have to ask first?!?" I say obviously flustered.
"Oh, my bad sweetheart" he snickered and grabbed his shirt. Rather than putting it on he walked close to me. Too close. I froze up again and just looked at him
"W-what are you doing?"
He just sighed and grabbed onto my arms. I flinched and freaked out a little, shutting my eyes, waiting for me to turn to rust. But. Nothing happened? I look back up at him, afraid and he looked back at me confused.
"I already told ya I wouldn't hurt ya. Calm down" he said as he easily moved me out of the way so he could leave the room. I stood there a bit dazed. You know what.. I just won't shower. I left the room and went to the kitchen. Nacht had his shirt on, thank god, and he was laying on the couch looking up at the ceiling. I rolled my eyes and pored Mochi his food. But Mochi didn't come. I was about to ask Nacht if he'd seen him until I saw Mochi hop onto nacht's chest. I nearly screamed worrying what Nacht would do. He just stayed still then called out. "Tch get your cat off me.." he hissed. Well at least he's obeying the rules. I walk over to him. I try to pick up Mochi but he clings onto nacht's shirt. I groan pulling on Mochi more. I'm seriously gonna rip his shirt in half if Mochi keeps this up. Nacht seems pretty annoyed until I get a better grasp on Mochi and accidentally rub my hand against his body. He lets out a low, rusty laugh. Pfft.. nacht.. is ticklish? I stop looking at him with a surprised expression. I let go of Mochi and he finally runs off. Nacht looks at me.. almost startled. Until I start burst out laughing
"Ha! Hahaha! Your ticklish? Pfttt!"
Nacht looks at me now embarrassed and a little upset.
"Shut up everyone is" he scuffed, Sitting up. I almost feel bad at how much I'm laughing but then again I don't. I finally calm down and a stupid smile just remains on my face. He rolls his eyes at me and looks away.  He stands up and walks to the kitchen. Making what I assume, burnt toast. I get my things together and turn towards the door. My smile disappears. I forgot two things.. I can't walk alone. And my door is rusted over. I sigh heavily and turn to Nacht.
"Erm.. could you.. fix my door." He tuns to me and his grin comes back onto his face. He walks up to me, a lot closer than usual and brings his face close. I tense up.
"Wha'dya say?"
"Please?"
"And?"
"Umm.. sorry for laughing.."
"Good kitten", he pats my head and puts his hand on the rusty door, it flakes off, leaving a mess. He better clean that up.
"Don't touch that kitten" he said referring to the rust. I nod and take out my phone to call Graves.
"Why're you calling him?" Nacht scuffs
"Well, if it wasn't for your little rusty can present then I wouldn't have to walk outside with someone to protect me." He rolls my eyes at my words and goes back to the Couch. I call graves sighing, I'll have to lie to him.."
"Avery? How are things? Are you okay?"
"About that.. " I say
