Lucas giggled then started to eat once more.
Kendrick couldn't help but stare at Rory, wishing he would live with him, but not pushing it.

Rory was glad that Kendrick didn't push it. He fell silent, finishing up his pizza. When he and everyone else was done, he helped with the dishes, methodically cleaning them in the sink.

Lucas yawned as he stepped from the table and helped Rory with the dishes.
Kendrick smiled to him, "Time for nap Lucas..." he told him softly. "Go upstairs and I'll be there in a minute," he told him then watched him head up stairs. "Rory...I...I really would like if you moved in."

Rory glanced at Kendrick and flushed as he set the dishes away. "Kendrick, I don't even KNOW you," he finally said. "I just...wouldn't feel comfortable, like I was a stranger in my own home. You know?"

Kendrick sighed, "But your my mate..." he protested. "I'll even let you keep your home, and you can stay in the guest room. I just want you here...so we can get to know each other..."

Rory looked at Kendrick's face and gave his own heavy sigh. Scrubbing a hand across his face, Rory finally gave a reluctant nod. "Alright Kendrick. Alright." Honestly, Rory was trying to think of Lucas. He didn't want the little one to start getting the wrong ideas about mates. And he knew that Lucas probably knew or would learn of his and Kendrick's new relationship anyways.

Kendrick beamed, glad he had won, then took a step towards Rory. "Can I kiss you now?" he asked softly. He did not want to make him angry by just stealing a kiss.

Rory jumped backwards at the question and nearly tripped over a nearby chair. "W-what," Rory managed to choke out. He hadn't expected Kendrick to be so forward. And he knew that look too. Rory had given an inch and Kendrick was taking a mile. "No," he cried, more flabbergasted than anything else. Shakily, Rory sat down, putting his head in his hands.
"What do you want from me Kendrick? Would you have ever been interested in me if I wasn't your mate?" It felt like Kendrick was holding some kind of strange, romantic idea and Rory didn't feel like he fit into it.

Kendrick watched him curious and sighed looking away. "Maybe," he offered softly. "Rory I don't date, not with Lucas in the picture. I wasn't looking for a mate, and I thought I would be better off without one. But now I found you and all I want is you. The reason I want you living here is I'm scared I will lose you, just like I've lost everyone else in my life. My parents died when I was ten, I had to raise my younger brother, and when he got a mate I lost him too. Not really until the accident...but then I got Lucas...I love him and I almost lost him today too. So when I found you all I wanted to do was lock you up in my home so you couldn't get hurt either..."

"But you can't lock me up and hide me away, Kendrick. I do have my own life," Rory protested tiredly. "I'm not going anywhere Kendrick. Nothing is going to happen to me. I just agreed to move in with you and I'll do it, simply because of tired of fighting this so hard." Rory knew he shouldn't have to fight, but Kendrick was making things so difficult.

Kendrick watched him knowing he was right, and knew he had to do something. "I...I have an idea. What if you stay with us on weekends? Just weekends..."

Rory looked up at Kendrick for a moment, smiling at him hesitantly. "I--that actually sounds like a really good idea." He bit his lip and looked away, tucking a bit of hair behind his ear. "I wouldn't mind doing that."

Kendrick beamed and leaned in to kiss him, he couldn't help it, he was happy. "Sorry..." he whispered as he pulled away. "I'll be right back I have to tuck Lucas in." With that he was off, going upstairs to Lucas's room. He read him a short story before tucking him in and returning back to Rory.

Rory was too shocked to even do anything about the kiss. He sat at the table and gaped at the retreating form of Kendrick as the man ran up the stairs. Finally, Rory growled and scrubbed at his mouth. Damn bastard STILL wasn't listening to him. With a groan he laid his head on the table, wondering what the hell he was getting into and if Kendrick kissed that good all the time.

Kendrick smiled as he came back downstairs. "Rory?" he asked softly. "Why don't we watch a movie?"
