The next day, (Y/N) was happy to wake up and see Klaus sleeping beside her. He looked so calm and graceful, mouth slightly opened.
She took a bath and changed in the bathroom, kissed Klaus goodbye in the forehead, and went downstairs to have breakfast.
When she enters the kitchen, Luther and Alisson are eating in silence, and Grace is making her juice.
-Guten Morgen!- she greets them with a wide smile.
-Morning, (Y/N)- Luther responds while Alisson waves.
-Got any plans for today, Luther?
-Not really.
-Good- she thanks Grace for the juice and drinks it-. So, you're staying home?
-Yeah.
-May I ask you a favor?
Alisson looks at her with a frown. Since when they were so friendly to each other?
-Uh, sure.
-Can you take care of Klaus?- she takes a piece of bread with peanut butter Grace is offering her-. I don't expect you to prevent him from taking anything, he's good at snicking. But, can you watch out he doesn't have an overdose or choke in his vomit?
-Yeah, don't worry- Luther gives her a small smile-. He has survived on his own all these years, I bet he can make it through a couple of hours. I'll keep an eye on him, though.
-Thanks. I've to go, see you later.
(Y/N) starts walking towards the door when Alisson's voice stops her:
-Where are you going?
-To work. Ren, my boss, will be very angry if I arrive late, so I better hurry up.
-You work?
-Yeah, at the flower shop, downtown. Come to visit any time you want, I'll give you a discount.
-Thanks- Luther says.
-Well, bye.
She takes the car since it's raining and chilly.
As soon as she stops in front of the shop, Ren runs out to meet her, an incomplete bouquet of roses on his hand.
-Finally! I couldn't sleep last night out of curiosity. Tell me everything!
She laughs as she gets out of the car. Then, she walks inside the shop, the scent of various flowers receiving her.
-Girl, stop playing around and spill the tea!
-Well...
-Oh, no!- Lile, Ren's sister, enters the shop with three coffees and a box of donuts-. Did I miss the story? Shit! No, you gotta tell it again!
-She was just about to tell it!- Ren takes his coffee-. So shut your mouth and listen.
-Oh, sorry. Here's your coffee, Voss. Soy milk, I remembered this time.
-Thanks, Lile.
-So, how did he react when he saw you?
-Did he kiss you?
-Where did he take you yesterday?
-Did you meet his family?
(Y/N) laughs.
-Hold up! One question at the time. Well... He was with all his siblings when he saw me. I presented myself, but he was too busy drinking at the bar, so I called his attention by saying his names- she sights-. And when he saw me, he smiled and ran to hug me. Oh, guys, it was amazing! I could have died there and then.
