I shake my head. “Don’t worry, I eat the same as I drink” I said as I cut a piece of the toast and egg and move it to my mouth where my mask opens up for me to eat. “I know I’m not invincible, but I’m not that scared about what happens to me because I’ve had the worse already,” I said and took another bite. “But thanks for worrying about me” I added

“Ok” I say as I nod and sit beside him eating. “Yeah I worry because I care about you ok I don’t want to find you dead oneway because you got in a fight or something ok Genosta.” I say as I get a drink and keep eating. He honestly worried me sometimes.

“I’m not actively trying to get myself killed, so you won’t have to worry about that, but bad luck and bad people tend to come to me like metal to a magnet” I said. “I don’t know why but people get ticked off by me whenever I do the smallest things even just a small bump or just existing sometimes when I just exist people like to beat me up” I said with a shrug.

I lay my head on his shoulder. “I know your not just please be careful for me ok?” I ask as I smile. I was glad that he was willing to put up with me like he had. “I don’t know why they do that but still ok.”

“It’s the mask,” I said as I just looked forward while he rested his head on my shoulder. “People see it as a weakness, they think those who hide behind the mask are weak and use it to prove to themselves they are strong. I can’t fight back because I’m not that strong and I can’t just turn into a bird and fly away because while I’m a bird, I’m more fragile and it would mean that in those few seconds between me turning and flying away, they could do more damage and I wouldn’t be able to protect myself” I said with a sigh.

I run my fingers through his hair and sigh. “Genosta I know that all too well. People pick on who the perceive as weak. I was beaten before to and just know Im here no to fix you up after the damage is done ok. Your not in this world alone any more.” I smile and go back to eating.

“Thanks” I only said before continuing to eat. In my view, it was weird to have someone who can help me when I get hurt because it’s something I won’t show. The only reason I ended up here was because I knew he was too innocent to take advantage of my wounded state and because yesterday’s weather wasn’t nice to hang out injured

I was probably overwhelming him with the fact that I cared about him it seemed that he had never been cared for like that before. It made me sad but I had been there before too and I could understand where he was coming from even if I didn’t like it.

I sigh and finished my food befire Archer did. I sigh and got up. “I’m going to try and see how my wings are doing so I can fly above you when we get to the lazer tag arcade” I said and as I walked passed him, I put my hand on his shoulder for a sec before ledding it slip off while moving on.

I smile at him. “Ok but how are you going to shoot me while flying.” I blush a little when he puts his hand on my shoulder and lets it linger there a little longer than he needed to. I finished eating my breakfast and started the dishes. I should go shower soon. I thought to myself.

“Its just to fly outside, during the lazer tag its dark and it won’t be as weird for me to wear my mask.” I said. “Its just until that guy that hangs around your house calms down a little” I explain.

“The guy and his friends that are the whole reason I ended up here.” I explain and shrugged. “This mask will probably catch their attention and I don’t want you to get wrapped up in it” I added.

“Well with me your always safe so just know that.” I say as I smile. He made me happy and he seemed to be warming up to the idea of at least friendship.

“Thanks” I softly but genuinely said. I wasn’t used to those words anymore. The last words I was told were ‘I’m sorry’. “An I won’t let anyone hurt you” I said. “Not on my watch” I added but it probably sounded more like I despited people than something warm-heartedly.

I akwardly hugged him back and patted his head. He then let go and looked at me looking very happy. I didn’t fully get why he was so happy to have me around, but when he told me those words, I felt a bolt go though me. It was almost like an ache. Something l couldn’t understand. “yeah” I was only able to mumble.

I was glad that even little things like him patting my head made it clear that he was warming up to this idea. I smile and put my hand over his heart. “I want you to be happy too Genosta.”
