Laruel nodded, staying close to Nic's side just in case as they explored the resort.

There were signs pointing to the kitchen so Laurel led Nic along, it wasn't long until they came to the main kitchen. Laurel sighed as they stood outside the door, "I hope it's clean..." she muttered before opening the door.

Inside was Wolfe, he nearly had the place clean. As Laurel saw Wolfe, her expression hardened a little. It almost seemed like she would turn around and walk right back out. But she didn't; staying silent for a long moment. "Hey..." she finally called out to him.

Wolfe shrugged a little, acknowledging them but not looking away from the stain that was holding his attention.

Laurel was still a little tense, forcing her gaze from Wolfe as she guided Nic to one of the tables.

[Kaliko]

Nic pretended like he didn't notice their interaction.

[Rinrou]

Laurel went over to the cupboard and peeked around. "Oh! Good, they have instafood," she exclaimed since instafood didn't go bad. She paused, sighing mentally. There was nothing she could eat. They definitely didn't have anything fresh around here and she hadn't brought any of her food, thinking that wherever fancy place they were going must be as stocked as James' house.

She didn't let her disappointment show on her face as she grabbed Nic some Thai food and instafied it for him.

[Kaliko]

Nic seemed to catch on to Laurel's dilemma pretty quickly. While she was busy, Nic glanced through the instafood to see what they had. And if anything in them could be picked out for a makeshift meal until they found something else for Laurel to eat.

[Rinrou]

Some of the dishes did have veggies in them but they obviously wouldn't be fresh. There was also an instabread, which was a simple loaf of bread. Nic had seen her eat some bread before. Meanwhile Laurel was grabbing him a fork and placing his food on the table.

[Kaliko]

So Nic set aside the instabread and the ones with veggies in them. It was better than nothing.

[Rinrou]

Laurel glanced at them, a little confused.

[Kaliko]

Nic didn't explain, making the instabread while looking around for a bowl to collect the veggies in.

[Rinrou]

Luckily, Wolfe had just cleaned some of the bowls and silverware.

Laurel seemed to catch on as Nic looked for a bowl, "I can do that," she told him, "You should eat before your food gets cold."

[Kaliko]

Nic didn't stop until she physically tried to stop him. Then he just went back to the table to eat his own food.

[Rinrou]

So Laurel make up the veggies and sat beside Nic, her back to Wolfe. "I didn't think about taking the meals apart," she admitted to him.

[Kaliko]

Nic shrugged, not judging her for not thinking of it.

[Rinrou]

It was pretty obvious that Laurel didn't like the taste of the instaveggies but she didn't complain.

Wolfe finally pulled away from the cleaning and looked at them, "Did you find your rooms?" he asked.

"Yes," Laurel stated, a bit of defensiveness creeping into her voice. Wolfe ignored it as he looked at Nic.

"You're healing well," he observed.

[Kaliko]

Nic didn't say anything since Wolfe didn't technically ask a question directed at him. But he glanced at Wolfe, acknowledging he had spoke. His glance wasn't quite as rigid as usual, but still cold. Maybe his iced heart was thankful he had been there to catch Laurel for him.

[Rinrou]

Wolfe seemed to read Nic a little and nodded slightly before turning back to the mess.

Laurel ate quickly, looking up at Nic when she was done. "Do you want more?" she asked.

"Here, play this game with me," Rosen told Missy when more of the cleaning and prep was done in the room.

[Kaliko]

Nic shook his head, eating a little slower than usual.

"I'm kinda tired," she sighed.
