He nodded as he sat down on the edge of the bed and looked at Malekai. "How did it go? I presume it was exhausting."

“Mm, it was okay… We had a lot of disgruntled customers today, and I was the one dealing with them, even though I’m not a social guy…” Malekai sighed some. “Needless to say, I got quite a few death threats today.”

"Oh gosh, that must be horrible." Theodore sighed and looked around. "Do you need anything before I go to sleep, master?"

Malekai shook his head some. “No… I just need to sleep. You can wake me up if you need anything.” He replied, yawning some and closing his eyes.

"Alright. Good night, master." He said as he got up. He exited the bedroom and made his way back to the living room. He laid on the couch and bundled himself up with the blanket and quickly fell asleep.

Malekai fell into a deep slumber as well, snoring quietly as he slept. He didn't even bother to cover up, the end of his tail drooped lazily over the edge of the bed, twitching some occaisionally.

After a couple of hours, he woke up. The nap he had taken earlier in the day made sure that he wouldn't be able to sleep for the rest of the night. He sighed as he grabbed the blanket, made it look like he was wearing a cape, and went to the kitchen. Quietly, he got a pot and some macaroni. He put some water in the pot and waited for the water to boil.

Malekai shifted in his sleep from the noise, making a quiet sort of hiss sound in his sleep as he rolled onto his other side. He soon relaxed again, though, but not all the way. The naga never really seemed to truly relax, especially in the presence of Theodore.

He hummed a soft tune as he waited for the water to boil, and when it did, he put the pasta and then the cheese. After a while, his food was ready. He grabbed a plate and scooped a good amount of macaroni onto his plate. He blew on it and slowly started to eat it, not wanting to burn himself.

Soon enough Malekai woke up fully, sitting up and slithering out of his room, seeing Theodore on the couch. "I told you if you wanted something you could wake me up…" He mumbled sleepily, yawning some. The yawn made his large fangs show, each was at least 4 inches long.

"But you were sleeping and you needed your sleep. I didn't want to wake you up." He said as he ate another spoonful of mac and cheese. "It's still quite late, shouldn't you still be sleeping, master?" Theodore asked, wondering why he was awake and not sleeping. "Are you not tired anymore?"

Malekai paused a moment. "I…" He didn't want to lie, he was still extremely tired. But he couldn't get back to sleep… He shook his head some finally. "No, I'm… I'm alright now."

Theodore narrowed his eyes at Malekai, but then shrugged. He wouldn't be able to tell if Kai was lying or telling the truth, but he hoped he wasn't lying. "So, then…tomorrow…you said something about a carnival coming to town earlier in the day. When does it start?"

Malekai paused a moment to think. "Well, I think… It starts right after sunrise. I haven't been in a while, so I'm not sure what to expect." He rubbed the back of his head some as he says this. "Sorry I don't have more information about it."

"Oh, it's fine. That little information is enough for me," Theodore says with a smile and a slight shrug. He got up from the couch and headed to the kitchen, and cleaned the dishes he used. "If I were you, I would go back to sleep. Getting sleep, even if you're not tired, is never a bad idea, master."

Malekai shook his head some. "I don't think I'll be getting back to sleep tonight." He said, heading over to the couch and sitting down. "Thanks for the advice, though."

"Oh, okay then. Um…You're welcome, master," Theodore said as he sat beside Malekai. He knew it would only be a couple of hours before he started feeling drowsy again.

Malekai glanced over at Theodore. "What are you still doing up, by the way?" He asked, tilting his head some. "Just curious."

Theodore shrugged and gave his master a smile. "Oh, I'm not feeling sleepy anymore. I guess it's the nap I took earlier that's affecting me."

Malekai sat back on the couch, yawning some. “Oh, well… that makes sense, I suppose…”

Theodore nodded as he started humming a tune under his breath. He didn't exactly what song it was since he heard it when he was living out in the streets. He covered himself up with the blanket and looked out the window, looking into the night sky.

Malekai's gaze wandered to the human sitting on the couch beside him. So small, and frail… The simplest of injuries to a naga could be deadly to him. He sighed quietly, scooting a bit closer. "How long have you been living around here?" He asks.

"Oh, I'm not sure. A couple of years, I think." He said without taking his eyes off the sky. "Maybe more. Time passes quite quickly and I do forget some things. Not exactly the smartest human." He looked at Malekai and gave him a smile. "Why do you ask?"
