Who Are You Today?

Stanley watched her, listening intently. "Oh that is awesome, I'm glad things have been going well," he said softly. He slowly ate away, "I just wish one of the other would clean once in a while," he complained.

He played with his food for a moment, "How was Arthur, is he doing better?" he asked softly. He genuinely pleased that she seemed happy, and had been spending quality time with Arthur.

Kassidy let out a light laugh. "Well, some of the others clean a little, just definitely not to the extent that you do." She told him honestly. Arthur, and some of the others, cleaned bits and pieces of the house. Especially when Kass asked for help. But when Stanley came out, the whole thing was essentially spotless.

"Arthur is doing a lot better." Kass smiled a little. She knew that he sometimes struggled with having multiple personalities, but recently things seemed to be going well. "I just hope that it stays that way."

Stanley smiled softly, "I'm sure you have to ask them to clean though Kass, which is entirely unfair with all you have to do," he commented. He had finished his lunch by this point, and was preparing to clear the table. He sipped on his drink.

"I hope so too, I certainly pray that he feels safe and secure here, with you," he commented. He stood up and cleared the table before coming to sit back down, 'now Kass is there anything I can assist you with?" he asked

Kass smiled at him gently. "It is okay. I ask and they start cleaning immediately. It really is not too bad." She told him before finishing up her food. With that, Kassidy leaned back into her chair a bit and watched Stanley clean the table. She would offer to help, but at this point she knew he would just deny her.

"I believe that he feels safe and secure. At least, I do not have any reason to think that he does not." Kassidy said before shaking her head. "And no, there is nothing I need at the moment but thank you for the offer."

Stanley watched her closely, "Have you gotten all the work done you needed to today?" he asked. He was thinking about, suggesting a walk in the park or something. He just liked seeing her happy.

"That's good to hear, I'm glad he seems happy with you," he said lightly. He looked at her, "how about a massage or something? I have nothing better to do, other than more cleaning," he said.

"Yes, all of my work is done." Kassidy told him as she slowly moved onto her feet. "Though you know I can't say no to a massage." Stanley knew her weaknesses, knew how to get her to let him help her. She often had back pain and so far Stanley was the only one that Kass had mentioned it to.

"And you do not have to clean. We should go do something instead. Have some fun while you are here with me!" She smiled brightly at him.

Stanley looked at her lovingly, "okay then, if you're sure," he said lightly. He stood up, "how about we go for a walk through the park, and spend the afternoon together, and then when we get home, I'll give you a massage," he suggest.

"That sounds like a fantastic idea." Kassidy confirmed as she walked over to the closet. After pulling on a light coat and getting her shoes on, she headed back to Stanley and gently took his hand. "Lets go over to the area where we saw the deer last time. Hopefully they will be there again."

Stanley had moved over to coat rack and pulled on his own coat. He grinned lightly, "That sounds perfect," he admitted. He laced their fingers together and led her out of the apartment, before locking the behind him. He walked with her towards the park.

Kassidy followed Stanley out to the park, a bright smile on her lips as she did so. She wrapped her hand a bit tighter into his, letting out a happy little hum. Soon they were walking through the entrance and Kassidy was already looking around, hoping for some deer to run through. "Do you think they will be here?"

Stanley smiled walking with her slowly. He loved this park, because it a wildlife sanctuary, so people weren't allowed to hunt here. "Hopefully they'll be still around, the weather hasn't changed too much," he said lightly.

He kept scanning the area for all forms of life. Stanley was a huge animal lover, and wished that they could get a dog; but apparently one of the other personalities was scared of them.

Kassidy suddenly stopped in her tracks and grabbed onto Stanley's arm, getting him to stop next to her. She pointed over to a mother fox and her two kits walking across the park. "Look!" She whispered excitedly to him. "Oh they are so adorable!"

The three foxes moved across the park, seemingly heading to go back to their small hole to hide out in.

Stanley stopped in his tracks, and watched where she pointed. He smiled lightly, "They are so pretty," he said lightly. He pulled her close, as they watched, before beginning to slowly walk through the park again.

They stopped several times to watch small animals around the park, but they didn't see any deer this time. "I'm sorry Kass, I guess, the deer moved up higher into the park."

"It is okay. We were able to see a lot of other animals." Kass told him with a bright smile. "And I am really happy that the foxes. We do not get to see them too often.

As they headed back, Kassidy leaned into Stanley a bit, squeezing his hand a little as she did so.

Stanley smiled and nodded softly, "yeah there were a lot of animals out and about today," he said softly. He put his arm around her.

The sun was slowly beginning to set on them, as they made it back to the apartment. "So Kass, do you want to shower first, then massage? or the other way around?" he asked her.

"I am going to go shower first. I will be ready in a little bit." Kassidy said with a warm smile. She then slid out from under his arm and made her way to the bedroom.

After taking a quick shower, and getting changed into her PJs, Kass made her way back to Stanley.

Stanley nodded, and let her leave for a shower. He made his way to the couch and sat down. He found a book and was slowly reading away at it when she came back.

He looked up, "okay where do you want to do this?" he asked her softly as he stood up.

"The bed would probably be the best place right?" Once Stanley agreed, Kassidy made her way back into the bedroom. She smiled at him for a moment before moving onto the bed, laying on her front.

She then let out a small breath, letting her back completely relax. She was looking forward to this, especially since she had a lot of tension in her back.

Stanley nodded and followed her into the bedroom. He let her lay down, and sat beside her. He carefully massaged her shoulders moving slowly. "So it's been lovely spending time with you again," he commented lightly.

Kassidy turned her head to the side, glancing back at Stanley for a moment before closing her eyes. A light smile moved over her lips. "It has been nice seeing you again too Stanley. I hope you aren't gone for so long again."
