The door opens, and Rouxls steps into his shop. He seems shocked to see someone in there. You lock eyes for a brief moment, and you blush slightly, seeing the man whom the contents of that drawer belong to. You blush even more in your guilt. That was stupid! I had no place to look through his things! The guilt hangs over your head a bit, but you definitely couldn't TELL him what you had done. 

"Em..." he stutters. "I hadn't realized that you would be arrivingeth so soon... er..." he blushes a little.

"Oh, um... it's fine! We were just waiting for you." You stutter a little, nervous. 

Lancer runs up to Rouxls, hugging his legs. "Lesser dad! You're finally back!"

Rouxls tenses up a bit as Lancer hugs him, surprised. "Ah... yes..." they way he talks, it would appear that his mind is elsewhere. He squints at you as he realizes where you're standing. "Why... art thou behind mine desk?" 

You blush more, remembering what you saw in Rouxls's desk drawer. "Oh! Um... I..."

"She thought she saw a mouse!" Lancer chimed in before you had to say anything.

"Vermin?? In mine shoppe? Nonsense!"

"I thought I saw one," you input. "But I must've been wrong."

Rouxls squints at you curiously. He knows. He knows I'm lying... 

"Right... and I don't supposeth that this 'mouse' of yours movedeth mine drawer key a quarter centimetre to the right, did it?" How can he remember the exact orientation of the key?? You're unsure of what to say. Luckily, you don't have to. "Heaven's sake, those disgusting creatures getteth smarter each day! That, or they just haveth terrible agility..." You sigh. I can't believe he bought that! 

Rouxls clears his throat. "Ahem... now... I was going to doeth... em... something. I had not expectedeth thou to be back so soon..." Your face turns red as you immediately register what that "something" is. You try to shake the image out of your head, but he's just so... AAAA NO. STOPPIT. 

You quickly turn away, hiding your blushing face. Rouxls apparently notices your reaction. "Y/n? Are you alright?" 

"I'm fine!" You manage to sputter out. If anime nosebleeds were real, you would've gotten one just now. Lancer tugs on Rouxls's shirt lightly, and he looks down at the smol blueberry child. 

"Are we going to do anything?" Lancer seems bored.

"Ah, yes," Rouxls brushes off his shirt. "You goeth ahead and go outside and doeth... whatever it is thou wanteth to do. I'll beith right behind you." Lancer nods and skips outside. Rouxls turns around to look at you. You look a mess. You can feel your face steaming hot, red as a strawberry. You try not to look at him. Your legs give out underneath you and you crouch down on the ground.

Rouxls approaches you. He stands directly in front of you, looking down upon your sad little bundle of internal screaming.  He crouches down to meet your level. He speaks in a soft, quiet tone. 

"Don't telleth anyone what thou saw in there."

OH SHOOT, HE KNOWS. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. If your face was red before, you're pretty much the personification of the colour now. You manage to let out a little groan of embarrassment. 

Rouxls stands up, brushing himself off, and steps out of the shop.
