Alan's POV

I looked over at Vic as he ate a bowl of cereal. He was so cute and I couldn't believe he actually liked me.

"Can I ask a weird, personal question?" I asked him from across the table.

"Sure?" He asked, crinkling his nose.

"So like... what's your sexual history? Like I know you're a virgin, but like other stuff?" 

"Nothing," he said simply. "I kissed a girl once. That's it."

I nodded, "But you like jerk off and stuff?" 

"I mean yeah, a few times," he said awkwardly.

"Cool," I said with a shrug.

"Why?"

"I'm just curious. I wanna know more about you."

"Well, anything you want to know I can tell you," he hummed.

"I know that and same for you."

"Favorite color?" Vic asked.

"Yellow, you?"

"Green," he said, giving me a small smile.

"Favorite snack?" 

"Kettle corn," Vic told me.

"Really?"

"God yes," he said, giving me a happy smile. "I love it so much."

"That's cute. What are your plans today?" 

"I have a conference call later today but that's it, really."

"Cool, maybe we can hang out or something before and after that."

"I'm down with that," he said. "I want to ask you something later too."

"What is it?" 

"I'll ask you later."

"Uh okay?" 

"Yeah," he said, grinning at me.

"So I think I'm gonna start looking for a job or something."

"You don't have to do that unless you want to," he told me.

"Why wouldn't I get a job?"

"Because you should just be able to take time and relax. You had to work so hard for a year doing something terrible, you should just take time for yourself."

"And I did."

"Not very much. It's been a month."

"I know that," I said with a shrug.

"So take some time for yourself," he told me.

"I don't wanna mooch."

"You're not mooching."

"I feel like I am."

"You aren't, I would tell you if you were. Wendy is mooching," Vic told me.

"How is she? She helps you out and does stuff for you."

"She's rude to me," Vic said with a sad sigh.

"How? What'd she do?"

He made a face as Wendy walked in the kitchen, leaned over, grabbed his bowl of cereal and started eating it. "This."

"Oh," I said laughing a little.

"She's rude to me," he said dejectedly.

"I know, I know," I told him before I leaned over and gave him a soft kiss. "I'm gonna go shower."
