Román started processing for a moment, just staring at the kid and the dog. As quietly as he could, he made his way toward the kid, poking their cheek “Hello?-“

*grabs your hand tight still asleep*

He blinked “What the hell-“ he whispered to himself and looked around, debating what to do. He sighed and gently shook him with his free hand “Hey, kid-“ he spoke softly.

*the dog wakes up and starts barking at you*

He yelped a little in surprise and blinked “Ah! Shh, don’t bark, I’m not going to hurt him-!” He spoke and shook his head.

*the kid wakes up*
Mako: what is it Apollo? *sees you then lets go of your hand and pulls a knife out of his pocket*

“Woah!” He said and stepped back, putting his hands up a little “Hey I’m not here to hurt you kid, I was just curious how you got into my house-“ he spoke calmly and nodded.

I have my ways, I needed to sleep here

“Uh-huh, of course, everyone needs sleep, but it’s not exactly good manners to come into someone’s house uninvited-“ he spoke calmly and slowly.

Don’t give a shit

“Okay-“ he facepalmed and sighed, lowering his hands back down “Alright, put the knife away, and you can rest here.” He spoke and nodded.

Good

“Alright, glad we got that settled-“ he said and sighed, rubbing his temples “Just, sleep as much as you need, and keep the knife away.” He said and nodded.

*glares at him*

“Oh come on, don’t look at me like that, I’m letting you sleep here.” He said and huffed, crossing his arms.

I would have forced you to let me stay

“Okay well there was no need for force, so that’s good, now stop looking at me like that-“ he said and huffed, nodding.

*goes back to sleep*

He sighed and gently pulled the covers over him, looking at him for a while and then quietly left the room, going to the kitchen to make some food.

*the next morning*

He had slept on the couch himself, a blanket over him and still sleeping peacefully and contently.

*going through your fridgr

He groaned a little as he heard noises, yawning and stretched. He opened his eyes and moved his head a bit to look at him “Oh my god.” He whispered and sighed.

*grabbing random food and eating it*

He sighed and sat up, rubbing his eyes. He moved the blanket aside and walked to the kitchen “Good morning.” He spoke as he looked through the fridge as well, getting eggs and some bacon out.

*growls at you*

“Don’t growl at me, I’m letting you stay here and eat my food.” He spoke and huffed, grabbing a pan and set it on the stove.

*eating ham*

He sighed as he started making the eggs and bacon “Uh, I never got your name, kid. I’m Roman.” He said and looked back at him.

I’m not telling you my name

He facepalmed and sighed “Alright, I’ll stick with calling you kid.” He spoke as he cooked “How old are you?” He asked.

F**k you! That’s how old I am!

His eye twitched a bit “I’m trying my best to be a decent person here, the least you could do is the same-“ he spoke and huffed, looking back at the pan as he cooked.

*growls*

“Don’t you growl at me.” He said and frowned, huffing as he cooked the bacon

Apollo(dog): Bark!

He looked at the dog and blinked “Hopefully you’re nicer.” He said and took a piece of bacon, crouching down and handed it to him “Want some?” He asked and smiled.

*bites your arm*

He blinked and facepalmed “Come on, I thought you were better than him!” He said and huffed “Let go.”

*bites down harder drawing blood*

“Ow shit!” He yelped and tried getting him off “Ow, cmon let go!”

Mako: Apollo let go
Apollo: *lets go*

He winced a little and sighed “Damn.” He mumbled and shook it off, grabbing a napkin and wiped off the blood, throwing it away and grabbed a bandage, wrapping it around the area he was bit.

Mako: *feeds Apollo*

He sighed and shook it off, grabbing a plate. He gently served eggs and a strip of bacon into the plate, looking down at him “Do you want some?” He asked.

Give it to me

“A please would’ve been nice.” He sighed and handed the plate to him.

*eats like an animal*

He just stared in disbelief, about to comment but in the end decided not to. He grabbed another plate and served himself food, sitting down on the dining table and ate his own food.

*eating*

He kept eating and looked over at him “You want something to drink?” He asked and raised a brow.

Yes

He nodded and stood up, walking to the fridge and opened it “What do you want? I’ve got milk, apple juice, orange juice, soda, water.” He spoke and looked back at him.

Don’t care

He sighed and nodded, grabbing some orange juice and a cup, pouring some in. He then handed the cup to him “Drink up.” He said and nodded.

*chugs it*

He stared at him in disbelief again, blinking. He sighed and grabbed another cup, pouring apple juice for himself and went to sit back down, sipping his juice and kept eating.

*sits*

He looked back at him and ate “So what’s your plan, kid? Are you planning on staying here or leaving?” He asked.

*growl*

“I’m asking a question-“ he said and huffed, crossing his arms.

*growl*

He sighed and facepalmed “That’s not an answer, kid.” He said and sipped more juice.

*punches him*

“Ow! What the hell?!-“ he asked and frowned, scoffing and scooted away.

*growl*

He frowned and scoffed “Alright, fend for yourself then.” He said and stood up, picking his plate and his cup up, going to the sink and washing them,

*sits there*

“Go find something to do.” He said and sighed, washing the plates.

*ignores you*

He rolled his eyes and scoffed, washing the rest of the plates and grabbed rag, drying them.

*pets Apollo*

He stayed quiet and put the dried dishes away “Go watch some TV or something, I’m going to take a shower.” He said and yawned.

The f**ks a shower?

He immediately stopped in his tracks and looked back at him “Tell me you’re joking-“

?

“Oh my god you’re not joking-“ he whispered and blinked “Oh hell no, if you’re going to be staying here, you need a shower.” He said with a nod “A shower is simple, just washing your hair and body.” He said and nodded.

Sounds not simple

“It is very simple.” He said and nodded “It doesn’t take very long either, and it feels refreshing afterwards.” He said contently.

Sounds bad

“It’s not bad, it’s a necessary thing so you don’t smell bad.” He spoke and nodded.

Who cares if I smell bad?

“Everyone. Everyone cares.” He said and blinked “Come on, you have to take one now-“ he said and nodded.

*growls*

“Don’t growl at me, it is a necessity. I’ll even throw in a rubber duck.” He spoke and crossed his arms.

Apollo: *also growls*

“Why are you growling at me?!-“ he asked and looked at Apollo, facepalming “Can you at least try it?” He asked and sighed.

Mako: No!

“Come on, kid, it’s not that bad, it’ll be over before you know it.” He said calmly and nodded.

*growl*

“Don’t growl, it’s a good thing to shower. You need to take one.” He said and huffed.

F**k you

“Yeah yeah curse me out all you want, but you need a shower-“ he said and blinked “I’m going to regret this.” He sighed and picked him up quickly.

*punching and kicking him*

He winced but kept holding him “Don’t make this harder than it had to be!” He complained and walked to the bathroom, still holding him while he filled the tub with water.

Apollo: *bites your leg hard*

He winced a lot but kept filling the tub anyways “It’s for your own good, kid!” He said and reached for some bubble soap, pouring some into the water and tossed in a rubber ducky.

Mako: *bites your face*

“Ow f**k!” He yelled and pulled him away, wincing “Don’t do that, kid! Look it’s not going to hurt you in any way, it’s just a simple bath!” He said and frowned.

*punches him*

“Stop it kid!” He said and frowned. He put him down and then immediately ran out of the room, closing the door and held the handle “You’re going to take a bath! Hell, you might even like it!”

*punches a hole through the door*

“Excuse me!” He said and scoffed, frowning “Alright fine, be that way.” He rolled his eyes and opened the door.

*runs out*

He scoffed and sighed, draining the water from the tub. He rolled his eyes and went into his room, getting out clothes and then went into his private bathroom, closing the door and turned the water on.

*sits on the couch*

He went ahead and took a shower himself. After around fifteen minutes, he came out. He was drying his hair and wearing comfy clothes, sighing as he put his towel in a laundry hamper.

*fell asleep*

He looked over at him and sighed, shaking his head. He quietly walked past him and grabbed a blanket, crouching down beside him and gently put it over him.

…

He sighed “Get some rest kid.” He said and gently pet his head. He stood back up and carefully sat beside him, turning the TV on but kept the volume down, putting on a movie for himself and watched quietly.

Apollo: *puppy death stare*

He looked at him and blinked “Why do you keep looking at me like that-“ he whispered and facepalmed.

*growl*

“I’m not even doing anything!” He whispered yelled and huffed.

*slowly walks towards you still growling*

He frowned and sighed, crossing his arms and looked down at him.

*looking at your neck*

He blinked “Oh hell no, there is no reason for you to be looking at my neck-“ he said and stood up slowly.

*growls more*

“I won’t do anything, I promise.” He spoke calmly and slowly “Just don’t look at me like that.” He said with a slow nod. He stayed up for a few more seconds, slowly sitting back down after.

*barks and lunges for your neck*

He yelped and immediately stood up, grabbing a pillow and put it in front of him like a shield “No no no! Don’t do that!” He yelled.

*jumps up from the pillow and goes for your neck again*

He screamed “Oh hell no! Bad dog!” He yelled and kept the pillow close to him as he ran away from the dog.

*chases you out of the house*

He ran to his backyard and slipped back inside the house, immediately closing the door behind him and panting a bit, looking back.

Mako: *jumps on your back and holds his knife to your throat*

“Woah woah woah! What the hell are you doing, kid?!” He asked in a panic.

Let him in now!

“Go***mn tell him not to bite me in the neck then!” He said and huffed, slowly walking toward the door and slid it open.

I ain’t gonna f**king listen to you

“I’m so close to kicking you out, kid.” He scoffed and rolled his eyes.

I’m closer to slitting your throat

“That would make my day.” He said sarcastically and rolled his eyes “Get off me.”

*presses the knife closer to his throat*

“It’s called sarcasm, kid, I was joking!” He said and scoffed “I let your dog inside, now get off please.” He said and frowned.

*slowly puts the knife away*

“Thank you.” He said and sighed, crouching down so he could get down easily “Can you get down please?” He asked.

*chokes him*

He coughed for a few seconds and grabbed his hands tightly “Let go kid!” He managed to say.

Apollo: *glare*
