I nod and settle inside for the drive to the pizza place. I look over the menu on my phone to see what other sorts of things they have. Nic and I fall into a brief silence while he drives, which I don’t mind. The museum turned out to be a little more intense than I think either of us thought it would be.

I want to know more about his mom and sister and what they were like. I want to hear stories that he was told about life in China and Canada, but I don’t want to be too pushy, either.

It’s strange. I never typically worry about asking too many questions or too many personal questions. Like with Nero, I just keep pushing and pushing. However, with Nic, I don’t want to push him away with being so forward.

[color=#006400]”Oh, no. I spoke with Bran and met Levi when I first arrived here five months ago. This conversation, I’m sure, will be more about him being upset by you and Avery. It would be best if you just stayed out of it. I’ll bring Avery with me, though. I need him to relax while we are here. He’s protective, but I can’t have him being overprotective. It’ll influence how long I can stay here if he doesn’t relax.”[/color] I sigh and pick up my drink.

[color=#006400]”Aside from everything, it’s good to see you, Kiki. You know I worry when I don’t hear from you for months on end.”[/color]

I laugh and swim around Nero lazily. [color=#B0C4DE]”Do what you must,”[/color] I tell them. I’m not worried about Caden getting jealous or retaliating. I know what Nero is to them, and I would never do anything to jeopardize it. However, I like Nero, and if they’re going to prank me, it seems only fair that I retaliate a little.

I stop swimming when they mention Kimiko. I roll my eyes. [color=#B0C4DE]”Of course. I should have known. Maybe I should go shake off in her room like the dog she thinks I am and use her sheets as a towel,”[/color] I say, slightly bitter.
