Ariella followed his gaze back to the apartment Lucas now occupied. She turned her head back to Lucky, giving him an even larger smile. Still small, but more.
"Thank you," she murmured before hiding her face once more in his shoulder. "You need a shower." She murmured after a moment.
Her smile and her thank you made something loosen up in his chest, something that had been constricted since they'd started arguing this morning. He squeezed her, just a bit, and chuckled when she commented on his stink. "Yeah, I probably doβ¦" He started to think to when he'd last had one, andβ¦ i was far too long ago.
"I think most of everyone else is asleep, so⦠I'll go do that now, I guess."

Lucas smiled up at her as he slowly closed his journal, eyeing the front cover, which he had doodled all over in different colors.
"How does it feel to be my babysitter?" He asked Ronni, teasingly. "I'm a pretty lame person, Aren't I?"
Ariella knew she should let go of him so he could go shower but she found herself not wanting to let him go. She only wrapped her arms further around him, pressing her face further into his chest. She wrapped all the way around him now. There was no space between them. It was their way of apologizing for earlier, she guessed. As long as they were okay now.
(Ariella and Lucky are so cuteπ₯Ήomlβ)
(honestly idk what the whole relationship things are adding up to be-)
(at the moment, kinda seems like Ariella/Lucky and Ronni/Lucas are gonna be things, though that's not set in stone of course. As for the other 4, I don't know what's going on there cuz there's age differences and stuff involved)
Ronni smiled at him and shrugged. Baby sitting was the easy bit just now. "You're not lame⦠Though I don't know much about you still." she said quietly. She was going to need to drink more water if she was goinf to use her voice more.
She also realized rather suddenly that Tanya had gone quiet in her head, which was mildly concerning.
Lucky started to step away, but her arms tightened and he couldn't move. He smiled a bit more, looking down at her.
After a moment he asked "You ok?"
Not in a generic way. No, this time his tone carried a little more weight. He was really asking 'are we ok?'
Ariella nodded quickly then finally stepped back from him. She let her arms fall to her side as she looked up at him. She nodded once more. We're good.
She held out her hand for him to take, waiting.
(Alastor's only three years older than Devon, 23 & 20, and there's a two year age gap between June and Liam, 16 & 14 so if relationships were to take place then the age differences wouldn't be too drastic)
(I noticed that but there for a minute it looked like Liam and Devon were developing something, which would leave June and Al, and those age gaps are a little more concerning. I'm sure we'll get it all figured out)
(I can make another character if anyone is dying for their character to have a romantic partner)
(I just think Dev would be alot better with a partner)
(Al's gay and asexual, so maybe he and Dev could get together?)
(Yeah, plus Zeus likes Dev)
(thumbs up No argument here. Just wondered)
Lucky smiled at Ariella, relieved they were ok. He was a peaceful creature, at his core, and the tension had been eating at him.
He reached out and laced his fingers with hers, squeezing a little bit. He turned and headed to the room they'd shared, gently tugging her with him.
"I gotta grab clothes,.then I can go shower." he said quietly, as they passed several folks asleep inside.
Ronni smiled at him and shrugged. Baby sitting was the easy bit just now. "You're not lame⦠Though I don't know much about you still." she said quietly. She was going to need to drink more water if she was goinf to use her voice more.
She also realized rather suddenly that Tanya had gone quiet in her head, which was mildly concerning.
Lucas gave a short laugh.
"What else is there to know?" He asked wildly. "I mean nothing else matters besides what you already know, I'm stuck in a world where you have to put your interests aside to survive."
Lucas threw his journal onto the couch next to her, careful not to hit her legs.
"Read it, correct it. Comment, whatever, just write on it if you want to." He told her and tossed a purple felt tip pen on top of the journal. "Just like the first time."
(so off topic. but this girl gave me a stuffed cat, a flower, and bracelets, and my mind broke and I couldn't do anything but murmur and blush β¦ I think I really like her)

Ronni felt bad. She hadn't meant to correct him last time, just help fill in some of the gaps.
"You don't have to let me, I don't have any right to your thoughts or your journalβ¦" she said softly.
He was being very kind, even in his sickness, and the idea that he might-β¦ not get better planted a weight on her chest and a lump in her throat.
Don't you die on meβ¦
(you talkin to me? @SeeYouInHellLove )
"I gotta grab clothes,.then I can go shower." he said quietly, as they passed several folks asleep inside.
Ariella happily let him tug her inside. She kept a good grip on his hand, squeezing it for reassurance. She looked at the sleeping bodies as the passed. She smiled at Devon before focusing in front of them.
"Okay. Wh-where do u want me to wait?" She asked, glancing at him. She blushed and turned her gaze forward.
(OH! I meant to say, something loud should wake the sleeping peeeps)
