Aki pouted. "But why?"

"I still have my cold. And I overdosed on couph medicine, so i feel kind of nauseous." Arein said.

"Oh! Poor baby! I'll take care of you." Aki said.

"Ok. That sounds nice." Are said.

Aki giggled and let go of him. "I'll be your personal nurse! Count on me!"

Arein nodded and started walking to his room.

Aki happily followed him.

Arein walked into the room and lyed down on his bed, clenching his stomach.

Aki stood by his side. "Do you want something to drink? Maybe some water or some tea?"

"Thanks, but no thanks sweetie." Arein responded.

"A-Are you sure? Is there anything else I could give you?" Aki asked.

Arein shook his head. "None I can think of..."

Aki fiddled with her fingers. "Then...can I lay with you?"

Arein barely nodded. "Sure....but I don't want you to get sick....and...." He looked over at the closed door. "Whay if your brother walks in......"

Aki shrugged and laid down next to him. "He will be busy with his girlfriend. Besides, if passing your sickness onto me will make you better than I accept!" She smiled and snuggled close.

Arein smiled. "You are such an angel."

Aki blushed and smiled. "I'm your angel."

"Yes. You are." Arein said.

Aki giggled and snuggled closer to him.

Arein smiled and held her close to him.

Aki blushed and smiled more.

Shana was still sleeping peacefully after working on her wounds.

Sora looked at his phone. "I should check on Shana." He got up and walked upstairs, opening his door quietly, to see Shana sleeping peacefully. He smiled.

Shana rolled over on her side to reveal a burnt mark in the shape of her body on the bed.

Sora sighed. "She must've healed her wounds. I'll just let her sleep the rest of the day." He closed the door quietly and walked downstairs. And called his dad on his phone.

Jake felt his phone ring and answered it. "Hey Sora. Treating Shana nicely right?"

Sora was releived by his dad answering. "Yeah. Of course I am. Dad. I have a quick question."

"Shoot." Jake said.

"What's true love?" Sora asked sitting on the couch.

Jake's eyes widened. "W-What? True love? Why...do you want to know? Is this about that Shana girl?"

Sora sighed. "Nevermind."

Jake scratched the back of his head. "Hold on, hold on. True love is..." He closed his eyes. "When you look at her and...you feel something in your chest. A strong aching feeling that makes you want to tell her everything about you. Your good and your bad side and even things you never told anyone else before. You want to keep her safe from all danger and seeing her smile...makes you smile no matter what mood you are in. When she walks into the room, it is like...she lights it up with a warm glow that calls out to you. You want to be where she is. To have her by your side forever and to love her no matter what."

Sora nodded. That all happens with Shana. "Thanks Dad."
Cc walked over to Jake. Shit he was awake. She just had to sneak away to check on Sora again. "Who are you talking to my love."

Jake glanced over at Cc and smiled as he still talked to Sora. "No problem Sora. Take care of her alright? Once you find your true love, hold on to her never let her go."

Sora smiled. "Ok Dad. Love you, bye." He hung up.
Cc raised an eyebrow. "True love? Is that about Shana?"

Jake shrugged as he put his phone away. "I guess but he didn't say." He raised an eyebrow. "Planning on going out again my love?"

Cc laughed nervously. "N-no."

Jake smirked as he stood up and walked up to her. "Do you think I don't know about your disappearances to check on Sora?"

"I thought you didn't because you never uh mentioned it." Cc said.

"Because I was waiting for you to be honest with me and just tell me. But...you never did. " Jake said with a sigh. "And that really hurts my feeling...You can't even be honest with me..." He turned away from her.

"N-no! I only didn't tell you, cuz I thought you'd try to stop me." Cc facepalmed knowing that made it worse.

Jake sighed and glanced over his shoulder at her. "Do you not trust our son alone at home with a girl? Is that why you keep checking on him?"

Cc sighed. "I'm worried about him. I just can't get over the fact that he's not a little boy anymore."

Jake turned to face her and nodded. "You are just going to have to accept it like I have. He is 16 year old now. He is old and smart enough to take care of himself. He will be just fine. Trust your son okay?"

Cc nodded. "O-ok."

"Good." Jake said with a nod. "Can I trust you not to run off anymore?"

Cc nodded. "Yes."

Sora was lying on the couch, watching a horror movie.

Jake smiled. "Good girl."

Something covered Sora's eyes and she giggled. "Guess who?"

Cc giggled and hugged him.

Sora smiled. "Hm. I'm gonna have to guess that its.....Aki, no Arci, no judging by that beautiful voice, I am going with Shana. Yep final answer."

Jake hugged her back.

Shana smiled and removed her hands before kissing his forehead. "Ding, ding, ding! You win!"

"Awesome what do i win?" Sora teased.
