"Oh, Lifelong Fitness." Jaden responded.

"Isn't that a gym?" Leo asked.

"A 24-hour gym." Jaden told him. "I have a membership there, but their smoothie bar is open to the general public. You just aren't able to get the protein shakes if you're not a member, and you can't hang around and such as well." he added.

"Huh. I see." Leo said.

"They're 5 minutes away from where I live." Jaden then chuckled.

"Hm?" Jaden mumbled.

"OH! These!" he stated, seemingly just remembering the bags. "Right, kind of?" he answered. "However, these are for your friend." he stated.

"Me??" Leo asked.

"Well, you're doing a lot for Desiree." Jaden said.

"I may have just met her, and I hardly know YOU, but I know that one good turn deserves another." he continued. "So I ordered from a nice place I know of, and decided to share. Which is to say, give the majority to you." he laughed.

"Oh!" Leo responded. "Well... fair enough, then."

Jaden shook his head.

"Bah!" he exclaimed.

"Only thing you MAYBE have to pay me back for is the smoothie." he told her with a wink. "And even then, not sweating 8 bucks." he chuckled.

Leo was about to say something... when his stomach grumbled lightly.

"...yes...." he admitted sheepishly.

"Then let's eat!" Jaden declared.

Leo just sighed quietly.

"I figured." he said.

"Well, then that leaves either staying with Jaden, or with... as you put it... 'Goth Girl' and 'Fish'..." he said further.

Jaden then paused.

"Goth Girl and Fish sounds like a friggin' Japanese light novel." he commented, causing Leo to laugh.

"I suppose so." he agreed.

"Anyway, Desiree, you take care." he told Desiree sincerely.

Leo smiled and they hugged each other, before he gathered his things and the food that was left over. Which was a lot.

He said his goodbyes to them and left, assuring them that he would disappear as soon as he was outside and out of view. When he was gone, Jaden looked at her, and nodded slightly.

"So." he said.

"He said you have two places to go." he told her.

"Which one are you going with?" he asked.

Jaden just sighed heavily.

"Of course she'd say that." he muttered. "She seems to have a THING for those like you, as I have recently learned." he mumbled further.

"But I assure you, you'll be no bother." he promised.

"If you wish, you can let your lease here run out and stay with me as a semi-permanent to permanent solution, depending on circumstances." he continued.

"Just find what you want to bring with you, and I can use my mana to have it there nearly effortlessly." he went on.

"And that includes furniture and such."

"I am certain." Jaden responded.

"And I understand, we shan't move too quickly." he agreed.

"Is there anything you feel is pertinent to take right now?" he asked.

"I warn you, I have no guest bed, but my portals can move your own bed to my place easily." he told her.

"If that's not something you want to do, you can always sleep on my couch in the meantime." he then offered.

"Laptop is over there." Jaden said, gesturing to a small pile of stuff that he'd placed aside. The laptop in question rested atop it, and looked to be all right, as far as she could tell.

"And get whatever clothing you feel you need or want." he told her.

"This place is almost finished getting cleaned, anyway." he added.

"All that's left is to toss the garbage." he finished, gesturing to two trash bags in her kitchen area.

"You can sift through if you like. The left one is used rags and cleaning supplies, the right one is broken... well... everything I found that was broken beyond repair."

"Ah, right." Jaden said.

"You'll be thankful to know I have NO fish or seafood or anything in my apartment." he told her.

"I normally don't eat it anyway, but I felt you should know that you won't accidentally come across any. Or shouldn't anyway." he said further.

He then made his way to the trash bags, tied them off, and made his way back to Desiree with them in tow.

"Once you have your laptop, we'll leave the building and I'll drop these into the nearby dumpster. Then we'll make tracks for my own place." he informed her.

"You have a new script, yes, but do you want to hit up a pharmacy before we head back?" he asked.

Jaden nodded in response.

"Very well, then." he said.

With that, the two of them left her apartment, with her locking the door behind her, and they made their way outside. At the dumpsters, Jaden threw the garbage into them, and looked at her.

"I did not bring my vehicle here, regrettably." he informed her.

"We can either use my portals, which I've warned about their effects, or I'll call a cab service." he said.

"You have any sort of say?" he asked.
