Kurt raised an eyebrow. "Oh. Mrs. Parks got herself a dog? That's strange. I thought she hated animals...or were you talking about Mrs. Kent? Oh wait, wait, she's a cat person and I think she hates dogs too..." He thought out loud and then promptly forgot about the dog issue when Liam launched his complaint. "Right, the texting... I keep forgetting about that... Well, I'm here now and I'm late but I'm fine." He grinned as he looked at his friend's face which still looked irritated. "Alright. I apologize. I swear I will keep that in mind starting today... But... You know...You don't have to worry so much about me. I'm a big boy and I can take care of myself. And my house... My house is just 15 minutes away from here. I could shout from there and you could practically hear me even if your windows are closed." He chuckled and then stepped in. 

When Liam didn't smile, he raised both hands. "I'm just saying..." He cleared his throat and focused on the writer's next question to stop himself from aggravating the situation even more. "Grocery shopping... I'll do it. What do you want me to get?" He asked.
