Welcome to Gaia! ::

Rachel took the paper and scanned the ten digit number with a small nod. If this shrink could handle the worst of cases Timothy would be as easy as making pumpkin pie. But it worried her, shrinks always put people off even if they didn't mean too. At Aomine's joke she gave a small smile, though his worry made her smile brighter. "I'm sure they'll be back soon. We can unpack some of Tim's things while we wait or you could show me around." she mused. "This is a nice place for a cop."

Rachel laughed. "I'm out of the loop. I'm too busy with work so when Amanda speaks I don't really listen." and nodded as she looked around the bedroom. "Take your time. Oh hello little Apple-Pie!" She cooed, finding the cat and picking her up. "Oh you are cute. You and Timmy getting along?" and held the feline, cuddling and nuzzling her as she continued to look around the bedroom. "What a nice big room. TImothy's was this way, right?" and walked out and to the room Timothy slept in which still felt like a storage room. "We can bring his box in here. We only brought a few things. Books, jeans. I hope he's still the same size he looked so skinny." and lifted the cat up to her face and nuzzle and kiss her little pink nose. Daren came back and led her to the office. "How professional. Nice desk, Aomine." and sat down in the chair, taking the pose of an evil villain and had a grin to match, scratching lightly at the cat in her lap. "Do I play the part?"

"Y-You're not supposed--There's a doorbell!" Came Timothy's cry which grew louder as the door swung open.

"You don't have a key yet." Amanda said walking in. "And those stairs andd you carrying those bags helps you build muscles."

"other I'm exhausted." and the sound of Timothy collapsing on the couch was heard. "I don't want to eat. I want to sleep. My legs hurt."

"Pain killers, sweetheart."

Rachel stood up and walked out with the cat in her arms.

"Yes, we're back with Ihop. Everyone got pancakes. Timothy was against cheesecake pancakes."

"There are some foods you shouldn't mix." he murmured. "Breakfast and dessert deserve to stay separate."

Rachel closed the door and placed Apple on Timothy's back before going to help Amanda unpack the food.

Timothy turned and smiled at Daren. "I just don't want to walk, but it feels good at the same time." and sighed, looking at his flip-flops. "I should have suspected she'd let me walk when she didn't grab my wheelchair." and looked at Apple with a frown. "You are lucky I am so weak."

Timothy frowned some more but allowed the cat to nuzzle him. "Too weak." and allowed his head to flop back down.

Amanda looked at Daren. "Timothy wouldn't let me leave the parking lot until I bought you food. He kept his hands on the emergency break." and placed it down.

Timothy looked at Daren. "She worked me like a slave. I think running away from you helped my muscles. Not that it's a good thing!" he said quickly to not hurt Daren's feelings. "It's just, gee, look at that! You know?"

Amanda gave a shrug, placing a styrofoam box in front of him. "Everyone got the same thing. Pancakes, eggs, bacon." she said.

Rachel chuckled. "Timothy come eat."

The couch seemed to sigh before Timothy appeared, sitting up and trudging over and sitting down, opening the styrofoam box and beginning to eat.

"It's nice to eat Ihop every now and then." Rachel said with a smile. "And you got a pretty happy grin right there, Aomine."

"I don't see you smile much. Tim does he smile a lot?"

Timothy nodded. "He smiles a lot here at home. You guys just make him frown."

"And here I brushed my hair and put on makeup." Amanda said, pointing her fork at him. "I, am offended."

Timothy chuckled. "That's awful, mother. And I might take a nap. It's barely seven in the morning."

"How lucky, on breaks, still getting paid. We've got to install the walls of new townhouses, the one they're building over there by Hoover and Lincoln road." she shook her head. "I liked it better when it was just flat grass. But we gotta build where they tell us. And you two can nap together but you know the rules, Aomine."

Timothy felt the heat start to creep in his ears. "Rules?"

"That's it? Shirts on?" They could still kiss? He tried not to seem happy about this, shoving his mouth with nearly half of the remaining pancake.

Rachel nodded. "It made a nice park. I felt bad when I had to start placing small wooden posts and tape." but nodded again. "Off to work after this. I got to sleep in today though which is great. Too many early mornings."

"My schedule changed with the kids." Amanda said. "Seven to four now which is good. I didn't like my previous schedule. Nine til closing. Always fun. How's job hunting coming with you, Tim?"

"Can I invite Doctor Madison to the party?" Timothy asked, quickly changing the topic. "H-He helped me get better."
