She was no psychic, and a look of slight surprise registered at his reaction to this (She was rather doomed to being surprised, as she had no clue what to expect). As he brushed the hair away from her face, she looked back at him, examining his features as he examined hers, never wanting to forget that face, nor the person behind it.
As he wrapped his arms around her, she leaned against him, and she would have melted at that point, too, had his arms not been keeping her standing. Closing her eyes for a moment, she took the moment in and imprinted it in her memory. She couldn't remember ever feeling this safe simply because of another's arms.
Funny that she had only known him for so short a time. Yet... He was so different. Everything that she expected him to do, he did differently. He didn't have that overbearing pride that was characteristic of his gender, but at the same time, he wasn't insecure. She opened her eyes again, "I'm glad I met you," she murmured, wrapping her arms around his torso.

Breathing in her girlish scents deeply, he buried his face in her neck for a moment and hugged her a little more tightly. His eyes closed as the weight of her arms around him made him feel that much more at ease. One hand taking a moment to stroke over the soft strands of her hair. "I'm glad I met you too." His own voice was like a coo though the gentle purr that still rumbled in his throat made his tone sound almost raspy.
The sudden sound of sizzling meat caused his eyes to snap open and his ears to come at full attention. He wasn't used to the sound and it took a few moments for him to realise what the source was. Sighing, he eased his hold around her, though it was an obviously reluctant action.

As he did this, she rested her weight against him gently, wishing this moment didn't have to end. However, the same thing that alerted him to the outside world also caused her to notice it, and as she was released from his hold, she gently fell away from him and returned to the stove, glad to find that the meat had not burned. Putting the noodles into the boiling water, she searched the drawers for a canopener and used it to open the mushrooms and sauce, all the while thinking to herself.
As the moment faded away, she began to feel it slightly strange. It seemed so natural to him, but hadn't she acted a little strange? Not exactly, she reminded herself that she probably would have done the same thing for Oscu, except she would have kissed his forehead, but still. What if this was how he acted with every girl he met, and she wasn't really different at all, and perhaps he wasn't either. Why was she being so cynical about the situation? Had she become so pessemistic? No, she had just been hurt three too many times by guys, and she wasn't ready to trust just anyone with her heart again. That was something that would take time, if that's what he really wanted after all.

Fate stayed in place for a time, watching her prepare the food, though his mind was elsewhere. The purr in his throat had ceased when she pulled away. He felt empty now, after having experienced her warmth, he didn't feel quite the same. What was it exactly that he was so drawn to? He couldn't put his finger on it and this frustrated him. He growled mentally before brushing the thought aside.
His gaze eventually fell to the floor, looking over the off-white tiles, his bare feet. Damnit. He left his shoes at the office when he shifted. Luckily he kept that extra pair in the closet.
He suddenly felt drowsy again as he thought of shifting and remembered all that he'd done in the not-so-distant-past. How many had he killed again? He'd rather not remember, although he subconciously counted each victim as the scenes replayed through his mind. A pang of guilt swept over him now, only making the drowsy, light-headed feeling double. He moved to the dining room, which was only a few steps away and brought a chair into the kitchen.
Setting it down near the counter - the one that Kai was working at - he sat down and closed his eyes for a moment in order to ease away the strange feeling that had come over him and hopefully push aside the thoughts that were parading through his mind. It hadn't worked as welll as he had hoped.
Placing his elbow on the counter top, he rested his cheek in his palm and stared at the faint ghosts of water vapor that came from the boiling water. Blinking as a thought came to him, he cleared his throat and looked back to Kai, "Do you need me to help with anything?"

After dumping the noodles in and beginning to stir them around with a fork, her gaze drifted over to Fate, noticing that he didn't seem quite ok. When he came back in with a chair and sat himself down next to her, she placed a hand on his shoulder and raised her brows in worry. "Are you ok?" She asked him, wondering what had come over him. He seemed rather out of it for a moment there, and she wouldn't be quite sure how to handle the situation if he happened to pass out.
When he asked her about needing help, she nodded. "You could put the sauce and mushrooms in with the meat and stir it until the noodles are done..." She suggested, tilting her head slightly. Why was she so worried about him? How had she let him make her care so soon?
[sorry for shortness... but if you're still on, I wanted to ask if Oscu could join the agency x.x]

Moving his cheek from his hand, he let his fingers brush the tops of her hand - the one that rested on his shoulder. "I'm alright. Just... letting nightmares get the better of me." Grunting lightly, he stood, taking his time to do so. Rubbing his eye lids after he found his balance, he tried once more to clear his mind.
Coming around her, he poured in the two cans and pushed around the contents with the wooden spoon, almost playing with the food rather than actually stirring it.

She nodded slighlty at this. "The stuff that happened before I met you tonight?" She asked softly, assuming that, from the contents of his stomach that she had seen on the pavement, he had done some nasty things before attempting to attack the other girl. She was rather curious to know how this had happened, but again, she wouldn't force him to say anything--If it came up, it came up.
Watching him push the food around, she smiled slightly. He'd get the hang of it soon enough, cooking wasn't too difficult as long as you had somone there to show you what to do.
