Chương 18: With you

"You saw that I don't have many neighbors, right?" Arius had an idea. Eirik obviously didn't have connections like Arius did, so perhaps he could help out. "What if... you guys moved in?"

Dante looked up at Arius, he had about spent 24 hours with him and he was already getting other roommates. He was rather jealous.

"I say yes!" Zuna's eyes light up as she looked at Eirik. She'd do anything to move out of that RV, it wasn't too small, but she wanted every bit of normal she could get.

"No." Eirik shook his head.

"Please!" Zuna begged.

"We're leaving." Eirik glanced at Arius. Although he had no expression, Arius felt that his cold gaze wasn't friendly.

"No!" Zuna stood still.

"Let's go, Hazuna." Eirik didn't look back as he walked towards the door.

"I'm not leaving until you say yes." Zuna looked at her dad with diafince. She also knew that he never went back on his word, so all she had to do was make him say yes. Eirik was taken aback by his daughter's stubbornness, it reminded him of... oh well, he decided to give up.

"Fine." Eirik stopped at the door and looked back. Despite his tough appearance, he was a pushover, and Zuna knew it. "Are you completely sure you want us here?"

"Positive." Arius smiled. "You can go get your RV now if you want. I have a pretty big garage I don't used."

"You're very odd. Zuna, let's go." Eirik turned to his daughter, who followed him obediently after getting what she wanted.

Dante walked to the bay window, it was on the side of the house, but the house was surrounded by trees so it gave a nice view of nature. That's when it clicked for Arius, did they have a ride?

"Dante, stay here." Arius opened the door and left, closing it behind him. He left the child feeling abandoned.

Being unable to see Arius through the window, Dante gave up and went to the living area to watch some TV. He didn't know that Arius was now driving Eirik and Huzuna to their RV, although Eirik was rather reluctant.

"Do you need help getting the RV ready for moving?" Arius asked.

"No. Just drop us off and leave. We'll come with the RV later." Eirik was sitting in the passenger seat.

"Okay." Arius looked through his front mirror at Zuna. "I'm thinking of getting an Audi."

"What's an Audi?" Zuna asked.

"It's a type of car." Eirik answered.

"What kind of car are we currently in?" She couldn't help asking.

"It's custom made." Arius shrugged. "And don't get your hopes up, I might get a driver instead of an Audi."

"You're pretty good at driving." Zuna looked out the window.

"It's not hard, but I'm not allowed to text while I drive." Arius sighed.

"Hm." She hummed in acknowledgment.

He got to where their RV was, and dropped them off. On his way back home he picked up a pizza, he figured Dante would be hungry when he got back.

He parked his car out front, and on his way to the front door he saw that Dante had come running. He was only gone for about an hour, did something happen? He wasn't too worried, in fact he was sort of happy when the child hugged his legs.

"Here." Dante gave him the peice of paper with Zuna's number on it.

"Hm." Arius went to the front door as soon as Dante let go. "Do you like pizza?" Dante nodded.

When the two were eventually seated at the dining table, Dante didn't sit on Arius's lap. So, Arius decided to make a contact in his phone for Zuna as he ate.

They didn't talk much until the pizza was finished. "Tired?" Arius asked.

"Mhm." Dante nodded. Arius picked him up and went upstairs to the masters.

"Are you going to sleep with me again, or should I go put you in your own bed?"

"With you." Dante looked at up at Arius as he held him. Arius had noticed that Dante didn't like to talk much, he'd get him to work on that.

"Okay." Arius put him down on the bed and then walked to the other side. Dante went to sleep immediately, while Arius unlocked his phone. His password was 'Cloud4life'.
