"I take it you mean the girls? Ha ha, true, but if I'm jogging I can't just randomly stop and do that, its actually bad for your heart and stuff. Found that out when I did track and field for a year, but I gave that up because I wasn't keen on doing almost noting but training." He motions for Don to follow him out to the car, checking his mom's room to see if she's moved or not on the way out of his room. Still hearing typing he goes into her room and taps her on the shoulder.

"Something up?" She takes the headphones off of one ear so she can listen but doesn't take her eyes off of what she's doing.

"Just letting you know I'll be back, I'm taking Vincent home."

[Yokuutsu]

Vincent tilts his head a bit. "Well, I really just meant if you were cold in general." He says. "I don't think I could do that...not in shape and I'm kind of lazy." He procrastinates a lot. At least until it's crunch time pretty much. Unless he really likes what he's doing. He just pads after Don, staying outside the room, waiting for Don to come out and all.

[ml1201]

"Alright," she moves the headphones back on and continues her work, Don turning and leaving the room at the same time.

"Just wanted to let my mom know that we were leaving." He heads down stairs and into the garage, unlocking his car and getting in the driver seat. Don waits for Vincent to put his seat belt on then starts the car and hits the button to open the door. He backs out of the drive way and takes the road back towards the college.

"So where is it that you live?"

[Yokuutsu]

Vincent nods a bit. "That's alright." If he was living with his parents, he'd probably do about the same. But he doesn't, so yeah. He follows after him, getting in the car, buckling the belt and all. "I like your car." He might've already said that but whatever, he's saying it again. He just starts giving him directions to his place, it's small apartment place. With even smaller apartments.

[ml1201]

"Thanks, my parents got it as a present for when when I graduated high school, though I'm making the payments on it instead of them. Let's just say there was a lot of yelling that day, my parents wanted to pay for the whole thing to be honest." He chuckles a bit at the memory, making the turns when Vincent indicates. After a time they make it to the complex, Don eying the buildings.

"I'm going to go with you to your apartment, I've heard some bad things about this area..." Unbuckling his belt he gets out and locks the door behind both of them, following Vincent to his apartment.

[Yokuutsu]

"Well, at least you can afford it?" Vincent says. If he had to pay for a car, he'd end up with a toy one at best. "It could be worse." It could be better too, he won't argue that.

"Huh? Okay, but I've never had anything bad happen here." He says simply, unbuckling and getting out of the car. "Maybe they just realize that I have nothing to take really so they don't waste their energy or something." He says, snorting a bit.

[ml1201]

"Well, either way, they might find you to be a target eventually. I'd rather you not get mugged or something. I just hope the inside of your apartment is not as bad looking as the outside of it." Don decides that if Vincent's apartment is really bad he'll make Vincent stay over at his house in the guest room. But he won't be able to determine that unless he sees the apartment for himself.

[Yokuutsu]

"Well, unless they just want to beat the crap out of someone, I have nothing for them." Vincent says simply. He kind of shrinks on himself a bit, thinking about Don in his apartment. "I don't think it's bad." But neither does he think the outside looks too bad either so Don might have a different opinion. He just heads for his, unlocking the door and letting Don in first.

(I imagine something that is mostly empty, mainly due to him not having stuff, but he does his best to keep it clean, sweeping mopping and stuff)

[ml1201]

Don doesn't say anything i response to what Vincent says, he just thinks that Vincent seems to have it pretty rough in general. And then a dick like himself to top it all off, he's still kicking himself mentally about that.

Once Vincent has the door open he takes a step inside, flipping on the lights. Looking in the sink he sees a brown ring around the drain, damaged tiles on the floor and what looks like gnawed holes in the wall and some of the cabinets.

"Please tell me you have some kind of pet rodent or something, because there are gnawed holes in your cabinets..."

[Yokuutsu]

Vincent isn't trying to make Don feel horrible or anything. That's not his intentions at all. He just follows him in, closing and locking the door. It's a learned habit. He just watches Don as he inspects the place. "No, but if they're still here, they don't seem to mess with the food I have, so I'm not too worried about it." He makes sure to clean often just in case, making sure to leave out as little food as he can for them, but he isn't perfect. "Personally I think it's from an old infestation before me, but I'm not sure."

[ml1201]

Grabbing a glass Don fills it with water, looking at the brown tint to it, "You know what, this could possibly be a health violation, the water shouldn't be that color. Which means its either rust, which is bad. Or its something else that could potentially be worse. I have a better idea." Heading back to the door he reaches for Vincent arm to take him back out with him.

"You're coming back home with me and staying in the spare bedroom, this place doesn't seem like it even meets the mandatory health codes."

[Yokuutsu]

"I've been meaning to get one of those filter things....I don't use the water from that." Vincent would prefer to buy some bottled water instead of use that. "What? What're you doing?" He asks as he's grabbed and all, confused to what's going on. "I want to stay here. I'm paid up here. My stuff is here." This is home for now.

[ml1201]

"I can easily take you to work and then back to my house after you get done work, so that's not a problem. And with all the stuff you seem to have it will most likely all fit in my car anyways, so that's no big deal. And filters are expensive and as a tenant you shouldn't have to do that, the manager or landlord should be having that taken care of. Look, my parents probably won't care, they are not home often anyways, so they will probably only ask that you help around the house and taking care of the girls. And of course keep up your studies, but that's to be expected." Don crosses his arms and sighs.

"I'm being completely serious here Vincent, there are health violations going on here and I'd much rather you at least just stay the night over at my place. Grab anything you need or all your stuff, I don't care, but I'm not leaving until you come back with me."

[Yokuutsu]

Vincent just shakes his head, "I don't want to be a bother like that." From here, he can walk to where he needs to go and everything. So he doesn't have to bum rides unless it's really cold or something. "I don't want to be a bother on anyone." He says softly. That bothers him the most out of all this actually.

"Why are you being so stubborn about this?" He has to ask.

[ml1201]

"Well, if earlier was any indication, I really like you. And the fact that you're not really mad at me for what I did makes me like you even more. If someone had of done that to me I probably would have beat them to a pulp." He rubs his arm nervously, obviously now getting a bit uncomfortable.

"And you can lock the door for the room, my family lost the key for it years ago, but it can only be locked from the inside anyways..."

[Yokuutsu]

Vincent starts blushing at his words. "Well, I could tell you liked me or something..." But that, in his mind, isn't enough to get a person to move in like that. Not that quickly at least. "I don't think I could beat you to a pulp even if I wanted to." He says softly.

"I guess I could stay for a few nights at least." He says softly before padding in to get some changes of clothes and his bath stuff shoved into a bag.
