Does he really care?

The talk

I grabbed her water bottle and the pills before walking into the bathroom.

"What's up."

"My head hurts so bad," She whined.

"Here take these and drink some water, do you have clothes to put on?"

"Yea I do," She pointed to a pile of clothes while taking the pills from my hand.

She swallowed them with the water before drying off with a towel. Once she had some clothes on I followed her out of the bathroom towards her bed.

"What do you want to do?"

"I mean I feel like we have to go back downstairs." She sighed rubbing her head.

"If your head hurts I'm sure they would understand."

"No I'll be fine, let's just go back downstairs."

"Are you sure?"

She nodded her head before grabbing my hand. We walked back downstairs to where everyone else is.

"How's your lip doing?" Robert asked Dakota once we walked through the door.

"It's doing better," She smiled lightly touching it. "I'll probably get some ice for it tonight."

"That sounds like a good idea," He said before walking away.

Dakota looked up at me looking tired "I wanna go sit down."

"I don't know where anything is in this house, so you lead the way."

We walked back down to the basement and went over to the couch. All of her cousins were sitting around the room watching TV.

"What are we watching?" Dakota asked the room while pulling me to sit in the corner of the couch.

Once I was sitting down she practically sat on top of me and made herself comfortable.

"The game," Adam shushed her.

She turned her head so she was looking at me "Are you comfortable?"

I moved my leg slightly, "Now I am," I smiled kissing her ear.

She focused all her attention on the game, I don't think I've ever watched football with her before, but I definitely was not expecting her to be this interested in it. 

She looked over at me for a second, "Why are you looking at me like that?" 

"What?"  

"I can see you looking at me." 

"I look at you all the time silly." 

She rolled her eyes at me laughing before looking back at the game. I was interested in the game just as much as she was and I was loving every second of it. 

"Wait what just happened?" Adam asked hearing the refs call something. 

Before I could answer Dakota spoke up. 

"Offsides," She said simply. 

My mouth dropped and I looked at her. 

"Stop playing with me," I smiled. 

"Luke I don't know what you're talking about." 

"How did you- I didn't know you knew the-" I couldn't even get my thoughts out of my mind. 

Adam looked at us "Dakota doesn't Luke literally play football."

"Yea." She said quickly 

"You've never watched football with her?" He asked me.
