"It's not my fault that you make amazing food." he mumbled after she put the plate down. He wanted to eat it, but the flavor of his own bile was still fresh on his tongue.

"Most people get water after puking their guts out." She added, getting up and getting him a glass of milk. "However, milk is actually better. Drink it slow." With that, she crouched beside him once more and hand him the glass.

"Milk?" he asked, almost confused. "I haven't had milk since my mom died." He happily downed the glass and sat back up, feeling better, but not touching the sandwich. No need to take things too fast.

"Milk helps counter the acidic properties of stomach acid." She explained, letting herself sit down all the way. "I learned that when I was 12. Not a fun experiment, I assure you."

"What do you mean by 'acidic properties?'" he asked, having never learned anything about chemistry. Not that he had the chance, he'd been alone for so long, he never really even got a good schooling.

"Well..." She began, giving him an abridged, but still fairly long lesson in chemistry. "That's the basics. I figure that's all you really need." She knew that a lot of that would just confuse him, but most of it should have sunk in. "Now, are you going to try to nibble on that?" She pointed to the sandwich piece and smiled.

He peered down at the grilled cheese quarter. "I'm scared to. Your cooking is so great that even if I just wanted to take a single bite, I'd end up scarfing it down." He frowned, feeling bad for not wanting to eat it.

"That's why I only gave you a small piece this time. I should have known better last time and I apologize." She said, bowing her head apologetically. "Now, you need at least some substance in your stomach, so I would rather you eat that willingly."

"Alright." he complied as he devoured the quarter. His stomach fought it the whole way, but he forced it down. Even though it was just a quarter of the sandwich, he was more than full and ready to fall asleep from the itis. [NOTE: The "itis" is the sleepy feeling that someone experiences when they've eaten a large meal, i.e. Thanksgiving.]

"Feel better?" She chuckled, already knowing the answer. "C'mon, you look like you are about to fall asleep. Let's get you to your room."

"Ok." he said, drifting off. He forced himself up and followed her to his room. In his half-asleep stupor, he had forgotten which direction to go.

Alex guided him up to his room so he didn't get confused and threw back the covers on the bed for him. "There ya go. I'll be up on the fourth floor if you need me." She said. Then she actually looked at the time. "Actually, I'll be in my room. Sleep well Ray."

"K..." he trailed off as she left. He kicked off his boots and sat on the bed and laid back, not getting under the covers, but refixing the bed. He didn't want to ruin the bed by sleeping in it. He even laid with his feet dangling off. He was just about to doze off when he remembered why he wasn't supposed to sleep and snapped out of the daze. He laid there for the rest of the night, staring at the ceiling and pondering the time he had spent with his hostess.

Alex returned to her room and got cuddled down into her huge bed. From then until she fell asleep, she pondered her time with Ray. Who was this man? Why did she feel so drawn to him? What about him was so special? Why did he have to be so attractive? All of these swirled about in her head until she closed her eyes and drifted off into dreamland.
6:30 a.m. sharp her alarm went off. Quickly she jumped out of bed and fixed it. After getting dressed in a form fitting, green shirt with two smiley faces with a heart in the middle across the chest and a pair of black jeans, Alex set out to start breakfast. Several kinds of pancakes were in order. Blueberry, chocolate chip and strawberry. While the giggle was warming up though, she decided to go fetch Ray. The brunette jogged up the stairs and threw the door open to his room. "Gooooood Morning, Ray!"

He turned his head to her as he sat up, the already deep bags under his eyes had worsened, but only slightly. "Morning." he responded tiredly. He slipped his boots back on and scratched his head as he stood up.
