It was nice how Zelia seemed to fit in with his family. Everyone seemed to like her and she did not seem to out of place around them. Trex listened as she handled herself well. He shouldn't have been so worried. Of course his family and her would get along. He did. After they finished, Trex rose and started to collect the dishes.

"No." Marcus declared. "Your mother and I got it. You had a long trip. How about you and Sanders join Zelia in the living room. We'll wrap up here and get the rooms ready."

"I have no problems sleeping in the barn." Trex replied knowing how limited space was. "Zelia can sleep in our room and Sanders and I can sleep in the barn." He stated quietly glancing toward the living room. Undoubtedly, Zelia would quickly protest if she knew what they were saying. 

Sanders nodded. "Works with me." He declared.

Marcus frowned but Trex continued. "I don't want you two to have to sleep elsewhere." He told them. "I'm used to it. Besides, with the hay, a couple blankets... It will be like old times." He stated smiling.

Giving in Marcus nodded. "Alright." He conceded. "Now out of our way." He told them, shooing the boys out. "In fact Kyla, if you want, you can join them. I can clean up here." He stated as Trex and Sanders headed out of the room.

"Did he wake up yet?" Trex asked Zelia as they entered the living room. He glanced down at the sleeping exceed. "I guess not." He placed his hands in his pockets and stood there a bit unsure what to do. 

Thankfully, Sanders stepped in. "Do you have a boyfriend?" He inquired bluntly. Trex refrained from rolling his eyes. His brother was a bit predictable. However, if he said anything then his brother would jump on that as indication that Trex was interested in Zelia. "Because, if this idiot isn't interested, I would like to cast my hat in the ring." Sanders said giving a slight bow. "I am the most responsible of the family and I have a great personality." He winked. "Not to mention, a solid homeyou can always come back to."

Trex just shook his head. "Don't let Peeter here you." He muttered refereeing to the oldest brother. 

Sanders ignored him and smiled at Zelia.
