Silver watched as Lee seemed to relax under his touch, and he half wished the dog would wake up and move.

Lee petted Max some more. He hummed a little, as he was theoretically being petted, too. …I've always wondered why I don't do things like this more often… If Silver wasn't here, I'd still be up town trying to sell my stuff… I mean, not really since I can practically anticipate everything. Well… Almost everything.

Silver watched the dog, stroking Lee's head quietly. "Do you like being petted?" he asked Lee quietly.

"Who??? Me?" Lee murmured. "W– Well, it's hard to say… Considering I've never been p-p-petted before…" His stammering got the best of him and he sighed hopelessly. When will it end?…
Max realized Lee had stopped petting him several times, and he went to the other portion of the couch to sleep by himself.

Silver rolled his eyes when the dog left, slipping around to sit next to Lee, his hand still in the other's hair. "Do you like it now?" he asked,

"Well…. It is a bit awkward to have someone else's hand in your hair unless you're a pet, don't you think?" Lee furrowed his brow a bit. "D-Don't get me wrong, though, it's not like I totally dislike it… But… It's strange… I don't know."

Silver smiled, "Let me know if you want me to stop" he said softly, leaning back in the couch cushions, his hand massaging Lee's head.

Lee glanced at him. "I'm just wondering why you just…. Hm…. Decided to do it…." It does seem odd that he would just… Do that.

Silver thought about it for a moment, "I'm honestly not sure why either" he said quietly.

"That's alright…" He shifted. "But for now, I think I'll go and check on my drying clothes and maybe take a nap, if that's okay with you, of course."

"Sure" said Silver, letting his hand drop. He watched Lee for a moment, before staring up at the cieling, playing with a silvery aura about his fingers.

Lee stood up and headed upstairs to the bathroom where his clothes were hung to dry. Ooh, they’re not even close… I might just have to throw them in the dryer downstairs or something after my nap…
He wandered into his bedroom and closed the curtains to block the searing sun. He climbed into bed in his stocking feet, settling down. I think this nap will help me one way or another…. He was comfortable and finally fell asleep, forgetting completely to shut his bedroom door.

Silver sighed, debating for a moment about following him, but deciding against it. He relaxed back in the couch cushions, unintentionally ending up asleep on the couch.

Lee rolled around in bed, still napping.
Max had woken up, and he glanced around a little bit, whimpering. He crawled along the couch and lied down next to Silver and fell asleep. He was just curled up next to him, but he wasn’t on his lap in any sort of way.

Silver's hand slipped into the dog's fur as he dozed off. Eventually he was curled up on the edge of the couch, sleeping peacefully.

Lee woke up about two hours later, and he was feeling totally refreshed. That was just the kind of nap I needed today…. He stretched and smoothed his hair out before crawling out of bed. I wonder if Silver is napping downstairs too… I better not disturb him, if that’s the case…. He exited into the hallway and entered the bathroom. Lee grabbed his drying clothes from the shower curtain rod and continued down the stairs.
He spotted Silver sleeping with Max, and he lightly smiled. Aw… He caught himself and flushed. Wait — What on earth am I thinking!? He rushed on through to the laundry room down in the basement and began to prepare to dry his clothes the rest of the way.

Silver stirred lightly, curling further into himself as slept.

Lee let the machine do the work, and he glanced at the clock as he came up into the kitchen. “My…. It’s that late already? I need to get dinner started…. But I would hate to wake him up….” He muttered, putting a hand over his red face.

Silver yawned, slowly waking up from his nap. Yawning he checked the time. Well now… I wasn't expecting to fall asleep like that… he thought relaxing back on the couch.

Lee came back into the living room. “Oh — you’re awake…”
Max lifted his head at the sound of his voice.
“I have a question for you…” He said, addressing Silver, “What would you like for dinner?”

Silver sat up with a slight yawn. "Hmm…" he thought about that, "what if we roast the rest of that chicken?" He suggested.

"That wouldn't be a bad idea…."Lee rubbed his chin. "Maybe I can grill the rest with some vegtables or something?"
Max barked happily when he heard 'chicken.'
Lee couldn't help but grin. That dog, I swear…

Silver grinned at Max, ruffling the pup's ears. "Sounds great to me" he said to Lee.

Max turned and smiled at Silver as he petted him.
"Alright! I'll be outside getting the grill ready…." Lee went outside and to the shed to get his bag of charcoal.

Silver nodded, getting up and running his fingers through his messy hair. Smiling he headed over to the kitchen, pulling the leftover chicken out and placing it on the counter.
