I got out of my car and grabbed my groceries from the back. 

   ' Vylad said he wouldn't be back till late. I'll just make food for one tonight. ' 

   " Hey, Y/n do you need some help? "

I turned around and saw Travis walking up the driveway. He had a small, shy smile on his face. His white hair was a little disheveled. 

   " I think I'll be fine. "

   " Please, I insist. "

   " Okay. "

He got closer to my car and started grabbing bags. I shut the door once he grabbed the last one and we walked inside my house. I set everything on the island in the kitchen. I started putting everything away when I realized Travis was still there.

   " Is there something you need Travis? "

   " I just wanted to apologize for what I did? "

   " Hm? "

   " I kissed you when I shouldn't have. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you. "

   " You are forgiven. Please restrain yourself. Katelyn would be very upset if she found out. "

   " Do you want some help putting things away? "

   " Sure. "

   " I have a question. "

   " I have an answer. "

   " Why do you always talk like Katelyn and I are dating? "

   " Aren't you? "

   " No, we aren't dating. "

   " Oh, I thought you were. You guys did go on that date on Valentine's Day. "

   " Yeah, but it doesn't mean I asked her to be my girlfriend. "

   " Oh. I'm sorry for assuming. "

   " It's okay. I'm just glad it's fixed now. "

I looked up from the bag I was going through and noticed Travis's vibe. He was calm but it felt like he was nervous. The silence between us was awkward. You could cut a knife through it. 

   " Travis, what's wrong? "

   " What do you mean? "

   " Travis, the air in here is awkward. What's going on with you? "

   " I just. I don't know what to talk about. I just wanted to apologize but now it just seemed to make everything awkward. "

   " Travis just act like your normal self. You're fine. "

   " Are you sure? "

   " Yes, Kawaii~Chan told me about how you took lessons from Dante in high school. Why don't you just act like yourself? The real Travis is better than a Dante Travis. "

   " How are you sure about that? "

   " I just am. I've been friends with Kawaii~Chan for a while. "

   " What does that mean? "

   " Don't worry about it. Now act like yourself or you won't get any cookies. "

   " Cookies!? "

He seemed to perk up when I said cookies. I laughed at his childish behavior and grabbed a pan and started placing the already made dough on the pan. I put the cookies in the oven. I set a timer and walked to the living room. Travis followed me and sat with me on the couch. I turned the TV on and started looking through the many channels. 

   " Can't find anything to watch? "

    " Not really. "

   " Let's just play a game. "

   " What game? "

   " Uno. "

   " You will lose. "

   " I didn't listen to you last time so I'm gonna listen this time. "

   " Good boy. "

I patted his head like a dog and laughed at him. We found something to watch and spent the entire time making fun of the show. The cookies got done in only a few minutes and we ate them. He ate most of them. I told him he would be sick later but he didn't. I heard the door open and I looked at the door over the couch.

   " Hey, Vylad. I thought you weren't coming home until later. "

   " I got done with what I was doing early. "

   " Which was? 

   " Something you don't need to know. "

   " Why? "

   " Because you just don't. I smell cookies. "

   " Travis ate them all. "

   " What!? "

   " I gotta go. " Travis said with a smile.

Travis stood up and ran out the door with Vylad running after him. I laughed at their behavior and walked outside to watch them run around. It's hard to believe Travis could run so fast when he just ate.
