The evening slowly approached and we all decided to help make dinner with the kitchen staff.

Of course, we got a little carried away with the spaghetti noodles and made a bit of a mess but it was fun.

I found my mind wandering to the stressed Alpha that had been locked in his office for the entire day. I wanted to brighten up his day so I asked the staff what was his favorite meal was. Upon hearing it was spaghetti and meatballs, we got to work.

We all gathered around the table while Franco went to get Aaron for dinner. I was excited, believe it or not, I missed seeing his smile. I found myself getting all gitty in my chair as I waited for the two to come out of the office, only for my smile to drop when Franco came out alone, shaking his head.

He said that Aaron wasn't hungry and was too busy to come out.

'Who the hell is too busy for food? He hasn't eaten since this morning considering we were here for lunch and he didn't come out then!' I thought with a frown.

'How dare he make me actually care about him' I thought as I played with the noodles on my plate.

'And I made this delicious spaghetti for him and everything.' I thought as I stabbed a meatball onto my fork.

'I'll see you at dinner my ass! What the heck is his problem anyway!' I mumbled to myself shoving another meatball onto my fork.

'You know what? Who the hell is he to say he's too busy! He's gonna eat this food I made for him even if I have to shove it down his throat' I decided, dropping my fork.

I pushed back my chair loudly and stood up.

"Umm are you okay Sis? You have that crazy look in your eyes" Apollo said motioning to my eyes.

"Oh, I'm fine Apollo I just lost my appetite. It's just that SOME PEOPLE SHOULD APPRECIATE OTHERS HARD WORK!" I said making sure to say it loud enough for Aaron to hear.

"Umm okay weirdo," Apollo said continuing eating his food.

I grabbed my plate and covered it for later. I began cleaning up all the dishes we used and made sure to make Aaron a plate before putting away the food.

Some of the staff tried to help but I insisted that I clean up by myself. I liked to clean, it helped clear my head and think things through. There's just something satisfying seeing everything clean and tidy.

Soon everyone had given me their plates and were back to watching T.V. While I was left with my thoughts.

I wish he would tell me what's bothering him, he seems so much like an open book. Oh, Moon Goddess I sound like a hypocrite don't I? Here I am pushing him away and yet I still want him to confide in me...

But I can't help feeling the need, no, want, to take care of him. He's been nothing but sweet to me since we got here...I should try and be nicer to him.

'Gosh, what is happening to me' I thought to myself and sighed.

Placing the last dish in the drying rack, I took off my gloves and began searching the cabinets for mugs.

While I was cooking earlier I saw a box of hot chocolate.

'He wouldn't turn away hot chocolate right?' I thought as I finally found the mugs.
