Allen are the other part of the cookie while listening to her recite the fortune. He held the small piece of paper once Kaneko handed it back to him, thinking over the fortune. It could mean serial different things, and be interpreted many ways. It bothered him though, as calm and collected as he seemed. Allen shook his head lightly after a moment. "Maybe it means I shouldn't be afraid of what I can't see." He spoke quietly .

He didn't live in fear of the unseen, but there were plenty of things he did fear. Allen was afraid of hunters finding him, humans taking advantage of his blindess, being alone. The list went on.. Allen sighed quietly, and lifted his head in her direction some. "I know I can't keep saying it..but.. Thank you, for this and for everything else you've done for me." He said calmly . He true did appreciate her doings.

Allen smiled when she chuckled. He felt the small stiff cookie a moment, before breaking it like she had said and carefully pulled the strip of paper out, setting part of the cookie down on the table. "Would you mind reading it to me? I'm curious." He said casually, holding the paper out to her a little. Allen took the piece of cookie in his other hand and popped it in his mouth, since it wasn't very big anyway. He liked it. It was sweet, and crunchy.

His fortune would read; Do not fear you're unseen future.

Allen smiled at her question, and nodded lightly. He curiously lifted his head as she seemed more nervous than usual, with how her voice sounded. She mentioned a cookie, and remembered her earlier saying they'd save them for dessert. "Who could turn down dessert?" He asked casually, trying to make it sound like a tease. Allen felt bad, she was nervous and there was little he could do to comfort her. Would she even want him to? They were friends, yes, but they hadn't known each other very long at all..

@Asha: poke?

Allen ate his Chinese take-out quietly. Maybe he was remembering how things used to be..what he could remember anyway. Or maybe he was just enjoying the company. He took his time eating every last bite, and enjoyed his spring roll. He had sipped off of his green tea a little, but he hardly touched it while he ate. Allen waited until he had finished eating, and then drank his drink.

He leaned back a little after he had finished eating. "Thank you, it was delicious." Allen said gratefully.

Allen savored his first bite, so he could really taste it. He swallowed, and tried something else. He liked it, you could tell by the smile he was wearing. "It's nothing fancy, but it certainly is tasty." He said casually, then actually started eating. Allen now knew he liked this Kung Pow chicken and chow mein. He'd try the spring roll after eating the main course.

Allen sat quietly while she told him what she had brought. He hadn't had Chinese food before, but it all smelled delightful. "Wow, I don't think I've ever had Chinese food before." He admitted sheepishly. Considering why she got extra, it didn't sound like all that much. First, he carefully found his drink, in case he needed it and so he didn't knock it over. Then he found his utensils, and slowly started eating.

His mother couldn't believe what she was hearing. Even Cordelia was leaving, was that it? The woman lowered her gaze. "I see.. Leaving to follow your dreams then, I presume?" She voiced quietly. Andrew calmed down, and glanced at his mother. "I know we can do it, together we'll be the best set of pirates you'll ever read about." He said. His mother sighed and shook her head. "We raised you better. I won't be reading anything involving hoodlums. Good bye, James." She voiced coldly, then glanced at Cordelia before leaving. Making no bones about slamming the door behind her.

Andrew sighed and plopped down on the couch. "That.. went better than I expected." He had to stiffen a chuckle. He felt so relieved!

Allen smirked lightly as he eased himself into the chair next to her. If he did eat here, this table was where he sat. He listened to her voice as she spoke, well tried to. The scent of the food grabbed at his curiosity. What had she brought with her? It certainly wasn't anything he had before. "Thank you.." He murmured quietly. He was scared though, his nightmare haunted him.

Allen focused on the food on the table. "Alright, I am very curious as to what you brought. It doesn't smell familiar.. May I ask what we're having?" He spoke, asking in the end. It didn't matter what it was, he was simply curious.

Allen chuckled quietly at her reaction to his comment. Her giggle was uplifting, it made him feel something. He had felt it before, but now it was more noticeable. As if her sweet scent wasn't so alluring.. He was already closer to her than he usually would've liked, especially after find out it was her father who had tried to kill him.. Damn it! He shoved the thoughts from his mind and lifted his head when she spoke. Allen followed her inside and allowed the door to close behind them.

"Hm.. I was actually." Allen answered casually as he wandered to the round table with chairs. "Well, I was hoping you'd come." He said, pulling a chair out for her to sit.

The siblings nodded, and Nathan wrapped an arm around her waist. Natalie giggled once again, swimming around happily. "I think we should have a sleepover!" She chirped. It would be getting dark soon anyway, and everyone had already eaten dinner. It sounded like a pretty good idea to her.

Andrew nodded lightly as she did so. He gently held her hand. "Thanks, Delia." He murmured quietly. If it was just the two of them, he'd be fine. He really didn't need anyone, as long as Cordelia stood by him. For guy, he had a big soft spot. Approaching his door, he exhaled as he opened the door. "Hello mother, what brings you?" He greeted casually.

His mother rose from the couch and locked eyes with him. "James, you're boss called me. You didn't go to work today?" She voiced. James, his middle and most loathed name, because his mother was the only one to ever call him by that name. Andrew shrugged. "I planned on quitting, now I don't have to. I'm leaving mother." He said calmly. Her eyes widen slightly. "You can't just leave, who will take care of us when we get older?" Andrew sighed. "I've got to get on with my life, you and dad will be just fine. You didn't really think I'd stay here my whole life, did you?" He said. His mother, in her moment of frustration, snatched the hat from the top of his head and threw if down on the floor before glancing at Cordelia. "Weren't you going to talk some since into him, dear girl?" She asked, since she really didn't know that they shared the same dream. Andrew stood quietly, which wasn't ever a good sign.

Allen had started to zone out briefly, before the shouting started. He raised his head and relaxed when he realized it was only Kaneko looking out for him, in a way. She thought he was someone else. He shook his head lightly and slowly stood, brushing himself off a little, as an old habit. "It's quite alright. Were you worried about me?" He spoke calmly. Of course she was, by the questions she was asking him.

He smiled some. "I slept better than I usually do, thanks to you probably" He teased lightly, just hoping to poke at her a bit. Allen tilted his head when she mentioned food, as if it just dawned on him, and he slowly opened the door. "Care to join me for dinner, miss Kaneko?" He asked politely. She did come all the way out here.. It'd be a shame if her food got cold on her way back home. Besides, he figured her father would be at work or something.

Natalie happily paid for her books and followed her friend. Nathan smirked lightly and took his book, kissing her on the cheek. "Thanks." Natalie giggled and hide her blush with her books.
