Kaleb tried to watch Riley as he went into the kitchen, but it wasn't possible unless he got up. "A-are you sure a heated pillow is enough?" He asked hesitantly, fidgeting a bit as he let his partner find something for dinner.

"Yea ..." He spent a few minuets in the kitchen and after a eventually appeared with a bowl of pasta, now covered in butter and herbs, and the meatballs in another bowl. "Heated pillows are good"

Kaleb felt a sudden and overwhelming desire just to get Riley on the couch and curl up in his lap for some warmth and nuzzling, but he quickly passed that off as just the pain trying to think for him. "I-I still feel like I'm getting more out of this exchange than you are," he said honestly, closing his book and fidgeting a bit more.

He shrugged and set the bowl of pasta in Kaleb's lap on top of the book. "You'll survive." He popped one of the meatballs in his mouth and flopped down on the couch. "I've gotta do some shopping later. Running outa food."

"Maybe I could help?" Kaleb asked, before remembering that he was kind of useless at anything that required walking, and probably would be for a few days. He blushed a bit and picked up the fork Riley had set in the bowl, then speared some pasta to eat.

"Or ya could stay here and rest and let that heal" He waved his form, plus meatball, at Kaleb's ankle. "A trip to tha store won'kill me"

Kaleb nodded in a resigned manner. "H-how long did you want me to stay?" he asked, taking another forkful of noodles. They were pretty good for such a simple meal. "I-I don't want to be any trouble, a-and I'd like to help out where I can."

Kaleb set down his fork and shifted nervously. "I-it might be a couple days." He figured maybe he could at least warn Riley before he got tired of having him around and felt like it was too late to back out of his offer. The mage didn't think his partner would back out, or would want to back out, but still...

"Yea probably." He shrugged. It didn't bother him to have Kaleb around so having him stuck there for a few days wasn't a big deal to him.

An indifferent reaction was better than a dismayed reaction, so that cheered the little mage up some and he was able to eat another forkful of noodles. "You're going to take me to work with you tomorrow?"

"I guess i can if ya don't wanna sit around here all day." He did have the couch at the office so Kaleb wouldn't be uncomfortable.

The bowl of noodles was too much, Kaleb could see that even before reaching his limit for the night. "I-I would feel awkward staying here all day while you were out," he admitted quietly, poking the pasta around in his bowl.

"Well yer gonna be stuck here while i go to the store." He snickered as he stuffed the last meatball in his mouth. "Already done with the noodles?" That so hadn't been a lot so Kaleb should have eaten them all but of course he left some.

Kaleb shook his head, speared an extra large forkful of noodles and stuck it in his mouth, and then nodded. At least he had managed to get through most of it before getting full. "I-I'd still feel awkward..." he said after swallowing his last bite of pasta.
