heartbeat {Nill & Allen} || Closed
Tap. Tap. Tap.
The smell of food wafted throughout the apartment. Nill had taken it upon herself to come over to her friend's house and cook for him, she didn't do much after school anyway, and it was nice being able to actually eat with someone else for once. He had a pretty big appetite and it was surprising to find out he didn't really eat much. That worried her quite a bit, he worked so much and barely ate.. she couldn't allow herself to just ignore that. She hadn't been at it for very long, maybe for the past couple weeks, but it was nice to see him when he came home. When it came close to dusk she'd usually be out and on her own way home, having already prepared something for breakfast for him in the morning so he wouldn't have to worry about it.
Lately however, he'd been getting later hours, so she'd accommodate by cooking a little later in worry of him having to come home to cold food. That'd be embarrassing on her end. He often gave her an idea on when he'd be home around with a text but just in case she would wrap the food to keep it fresh longer. Of course, she also bought the food despite him offering to. In which case she'd puff out her cheeks and insist that it's okay, she doesn't mind it at all since they're friends.
He gave her permission to enter his apartment and where the location of the spare key was placed, whenever she entered she'd put the key back and lock the door behind her. He was pretty late today..she didn't receive anything from him and wrapped the food up a little extra hoping to keep it warm, but she was getting pretty tired. Too worried about leaving, she ended up setting up the table and the wrapped food at the table for when he did make it home, pulling out a chair for herself and sitting. She didn't mind waiting.
She felt her head bob, barely managing to keep her eyes open. She thought that she managed not to fall asleep but was startled awake with a hand shaking her. Unsure of how late it had gotten, she smiled up at him to show she wasn't upset about it, signing:
{.. Welcome home. ..}
