Anyway, this chapter was a little harder to write so I am not sure if it's very good. Any constructive criticism would be appreciated :)
Enjoy ~

Z: hey Liam? Can I stay over for today?

L: sure, but why?

Z: I ate the pie mom made for grandma :')

L: wow you're an idiot.

Z: thq, be there in 15.

I wasn't the only one having dinner today, I decided couldn't survive on instant ramen. I looked up a recipe for a all-in-one-pot-curry and got to cooking.

• pot curry •
- butter
- chicken thighs
- carrots
- onion
- potatoes
- salt
- garlic
- ginger
- honey
- ketchup

1) start but removing the fat from-

Screw that. I'll just get the ingredients and put them in a pot. How hard can making curry be?

I finished putting everything in the pot, put the lid and sat down on the couch, waiting for Zach.

Soon enough, he was there.

"Hi- something's burning, are you cooking?!"

He pushed me aside and rushed to the kitchen, where the remains of my curry lay. All black.

"What the hell were you trying to make anyway?"

".....curry."

"Bro how do you mess up curry? It's like the easiest thing to make. "

"Shut up. "

"You go clean up, I'll make us dinner." He said chuckling.

-----

"You would be like, the perfect husband, Your food is amazing!" I said shoving another spoonful of curry and rice into my mouth.

"I think most people know how to cook basic curry, Liam."

"If I don't find a partner, I may just end up marrying you. "

He snickered and continued eating.

I guess I never noticed how lonely it gets. I've always eaten alone, but it feels so much better when I eat with Someone. It's always times like these, I wish I had a normal family.

"Hey Zach? Thanks."

"...for?"

"Um coming over. And making dinner, It gets lonely sometimes." I said looking away.

He looked at me, slightly shocked.

"I'll come over more often now, yeah?"

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

I woke up when I smelt pancakes. Oh right, Zach stayed over, I reminded myself.

I walked to the kitchen, to find him placing a plate of pancakes on the counter.

"Finally woke up?" He said noticing me.

"You didn't have to..."

"I'm not letting you go to school without eating breakfast."

"Are you my mom or something?" I chuckled.

He ignored me, sitting down opposite to me.

Well, even if he isn't my mom, this is the most motherly thing I've experienced in a while.
