"Two sugars please," She whispered.

**Fruit-Pastilles** Tue 17 Sep - 19:57

"Milk too?"

**BestNameEva** Tue 17 Sep - 19:59

"Please,"

**Fruit-Pastilles** Tue 17 Sep - 20:11

"Can do. You gonna let the littl'un sleep?"

**BestNameEva** Tue 17 Sep - 20:39

"He'll probably wake up when Keag comes back down." April confirmed with a nod.

**Fruit-Pastilles** Tue 17 Sep - 20:43

"Don't want to nudge him awake or anything?"

**BestNameEva** Tue 17 Sep - 20:45

"No Fleet," She replied with a quiet laugh. "Leave him sleep."

**Fruit-Pastilles** Tue 17 Sep - 21:00

"Are you sure? Cause I'm only offering a drink once. I'm not that charitable."

**BestNameEva** Tue 17 Sep - 21:01

"I'm sure,"

**Fruit-Pastilles** Tue 17 Sep - 21:12

"I'll be through with your tea in a minute then." Fleet walked out and into the kitchen, his complaining about the mess Keagan had made sounding shortly afterwards.

**BestNameEva** Tue 17 Sep - 21:20

April just laughed a bit.

**Fruit-Pastilles** Tue 17 Sep - 21:22

Fleet came through after ten minutes with a cup of tea, the spoon still in it, looking surprised Keagan wasn't down yet.

**BestNameEva** Tue 17 Sep - 21:25

"He should be down soon," She mumbled quietly, the look on his face instantly worrying her once again as she took the drink from him.

**Fruit-Pastilles** Tue 17 Sep - 21:28

"Yeah, suppose he should be. He must really be cleaning up or something to impress you." Fleet snorted as he moved to sit back in the armchair.

**BestNameEva** Tue 17 Sep - 21:30

April's eyes widened a bit at that and she shook her head, "Na, I doubt that." she mumbled.

**Fruit-Pastilles** Tue 17 Sep - 21:32

"He hasn't done anything for the past week, he's clearly making himself presentable for you."

**BestNameEva** Tue 17 Sep - 21:35

"Probably more for himself than for me,"

**Fruit-Pastilles** Tue 17 Sep - 21:40

"We're bachelors and we're guys, cleaning up is for girls, or close contact social situations."

**BestNameEva** Tue 17 Sep - 21:42

April just laughed a little bit and just glanced up at the ceiling, listening for any sign of Keagan.

**Fruit-Pastilles** Tue 17 Sep - 21:49

After a few more minutes, there was frenzied banging and then suddenly loud thuds from the stairs which startled Daniel awake.

"Oh, he's fallen again," Fleet muttered absently.

**BestNameEva** Tue 17 Sep - 21:55

April frowned deeply and just wandered to the stairs quietly, "Keag? You okay?"

**Fruit-Pastilles** Tue 17 Sep - 22:03

Keagan was just standing up from the bottom stair and he nodded jerkily. "Yeah, just slipped is all."

**BestNameEva** Tue 17 Sep - 22:05

"Clumsy," She teased gently, "You feeling okay?"

**Fruit-Pastilles** Tue 17 Sep - 22:18

"Not entirely, but better."

**BestNameEva** Tue 17 Sep - 22:23

"Betters good," She whispered, before adding lightly, "You scared me half to death, you know? I was worried about you."
