Treading The Unknown

He nodded a little,"Yeah, she has that kid... yuta.. nakamoto? helping her out a bit," he said as he looked at her.

---

She looked at him then sighed, "I got it, almost done besides I need the practice," she murmured as she began to change her diaper then yawned sleepily before letting out a groan. "Kid I'm only twenty one, you're suckin' the life out of me,"

She raised her eyebrows. "The hot one? I heard he was good with kids, that's nice of him." She smiled a little.

---

He rolled over and sighed. "If you say so," He said sleepily. "I'll order food in a bit, Chinese or something."

She nodded a little as she looked at him, "That sounds good actually,"she said as she put the new onsie on her then wrapped her in a blanket before putting the bottle in her mouth.

---

He shrugged,"I don't know if he is hot, I've only seen him a couple times, but yeah the one with the creepy smile,"

She snorted. "It's not creepy, he's good looking but I think it's nice he's helping out." She said to him. "Do you want me to cook? I can do it you know, but you spend so much time feeding me yourself."

---

He rubbed his face, sitting up and sighing. He watched her for a second, smiling a little. She looked a lot more confident now than she had before, and it was nice to see. He stopped for a second realizing what he was doing before reaching for his phone. "I'll order it, I'll have it delivered."

She nodded a little then smiled as she looked at him, "Alright, sounds good. Once she is fed I'm going to let her squirm around on her stomach for a while, they said it was good for them online," she said as she chewed on the inside of her cheek. "Just order a lot of spring rolls and the sweet and sour chicken for me,"

---

He rolled hsi eyes, "It's totally creepy and sure if you want to, what will you make?" he asked curiously as he looked at her.

She shrugged. "What do you want?" She asked, standing and going into the kitchen. "I can make most things," She said, looking into the refrigerator.

---

He nodded and did as she said, before laying back in the bed and staring at the ceiling. He knew she needed him but he was wondering if he was getting too close.

"Salsbary steak with mashed potatoes sounds good," he admitted as he looked at her then smiled, "maybe with some corn bread too that sounds good,"

---

Lyanna sighed as she heard the baby going to the bathroom again, "You're like a shitting machine what the hell," she muttered as she laid her on the floor and waited for her to finish, "Come on we dont have all day the movers will be here soon,"

She laughed a little. "I know mashed potatoes and corn bread, and I can figure out the Salisbury steak," She said, going into the kitchen. She pulled out the ingredients and began prepping the food. "So can i ask you something? If the girl hadn't been crazy and I came in like I did, would you have told me no?"

---

He sat up before looking around for his boxers. "Now that she has the space for her room you can install a toilet for her," He joked.

He shrugged,"Probably not," he murmured softly as he looked at her from his spot, "I mean she was nice but she wasn't you,"

---

She snorted,"I probably should to be honest," she said as she began to unsnap her onsie to change her diaper, "this week has been exhausting," she murmured lightly.

She turned to look at him, smiling a little. "Just bear with me, that's all I ask. I don't like dating for a reason, but you won't have me any other way, and I'd probably fight the next girl that showed you any attention," She said, mixing the mashed potatoes.

---

He nodded a little. "You gained a few things from it though," He pointed out, smirking a bit. "Myself included. I should charge you for my assistance."

Lyanna laughed as she looked at him,"But you get something out of it too, my fantastic personality and companionship," she said to him with a wink then shook her head.

---

He laughed, "Well as long as you understand any guy who comes near you is going to have to deal with me,"

She laughed. "I understand, just bear with me," She said to him, checking on the food she had put into the oven. "You should definitely have drunk sex with me once though," She said over her shoulder. "We can get you drunk too,"

---

He laughed a little. "Also true, I'm honored," He said, laying back and looking at the ceiling. "Once you're settled in though, you'll be alright. You won't need my help anymore."

She smiled a little as she looked at him then looked at her hands as she began to change diaper, "Yeah I guess," she murmured lightly as she chewed on the inside of her cheek - she doubted once he was gone he'd want to even be near her. Lyanna knew her life was basically over now, she had to raise her niece the right way even if it meant sacrificing her needs.

---

"its all so gross though, I dont know how you drink it," he whined as he looked at her, "its bitter and disgusting,"

She made a face. "It's not supposed to taste good, but they have better tasting stuff out there," She laughed. "And for you since now I know you'll be liking flavored drinks," She teased. "I'm curious to see you drunk, who knows you might be secretly kinky and we'd have no idea."

---

He laid back before sitting back up, hearing the door. "I'll get it, it's the food. I'll be back," He said, pulling on a shirt and going to answer the door and pay for the food.

Lyanna nodded before brushing hair out of her eyes then dressing Jenny and putting her back in her swing then turning on the tv for her so she was occupied, it was some kid show that was meant to make them smart so she hoped it worked.

---

He shrugged,"Who knows,' he said as he snorted, "but why i feel weird when I drink its not really pleasant," he admitted scrunching his face.

She made a face, pulling the food out and setting it onto the stove. "Fine fine, nevermind," She said, sighing a bit. "You might end up throwing up on me, so we just won't do that."

---

He came back in wit the food, setting it out on the floor and sitting near her. "I got you your spring rolls, and your chicken," He said, smiling a bit and putting the chicken in front of her. He looked at her and raised an eyebrow. "So what is your major? I don't know if I asked you this before or not."

"Animal Science, I'm going to be a verterinarian," she said to him smiling a little as she looked at him, "You did ask but we were both pretty drunk," she said scrunching her face as she looked at him, "I only have three more years of school left then I get to start working - but I really want to work with small animals, cats, dogs, ferrets, rats, the such" she said to him grinning a little as she thought about it. "So I'm hoping to intern under someone who specializes in small animals so I can get my specialized licenses,"

---

"That is actually a very high possibility," he admitted as he looked at her, "I just.. don't do well on alcohol, I used to drink a lot in high school but got sick every timem" he admitted.

"Then I won't force it," She laughed a little. "Don't worry, it wasn't a need," She said to him, putting the food on plates. She walked over and handed him one, sitting across from him. "I hope you like the steak, that was from memory, imagination, and faith," She laughed a little.

---

"I see, I sort of remember, but again, we were pretty drunk." He said, eating an egg roll. "So will you miss it? The parties?" He asked curiously.

She nodded a little as she began to eat her food,"A little I guess, but she keeps me so busy.. not really at the same time, I think I miss the attention more than anything," she admitted lightly as she thought about it for a minute, "you're the only guy who has shown any interest in me sexually in the last week, buh bye sex life," she murmured softly as she took a bite of food.

---

He laughed a little as he looked at her, "I could have given you a recipe but you felt the need to do it yurself," he said to her grinning as he took a plate,"but it smells good,"

"Well, if it tastes awful, next time speak up," She laughed, taking a bite of the potatoes and getting back up for drinks. "Do you have to go to campus tomorrow?"

---

"Well, I'm here, I figured why not," He laughed a little. "You said you were dying for a round 2, might as well have done it while she was asleep."
