A few weeks had passed ever since the incident.

Anya Forger, a telepath and Damian Desmond's second son's partner.

Damian Desmond, Desmond's second son, Anya's partner.

Becky Blackbell, Anya's best friend.

Emile & Ewin, Damian's friends.

It was first period. The students of the prestigious Eden are preparing for the lesson to start. Damian walks in to find Anya smirking at some bullies. One of which being Amy the "innocent" student.

Amy: I think it's scary that you are a telepath. Hannah we shouldn't trust such a person...
Hannah: I don't even know how they are allowing to attend school! You should be aressted by the Secret police.
Anya: *still smirking* how can I be aressted for not doing anything bad.

Anya: Besides uncle works there...

Becky: would you just leave us the hell alone!?

Damian walked up to them as he couldn't handle the scene going down.

Amy: Hannah, she also stole Damian.
Hannah: what!

She was about to slap her when, suddenly a hand grabbed her before she could lay a finger on Anya.

Damian: that's enough!

The girl backed away, realizing what she had done.

Hannah: she was about to hit Amy so I was defending her.
Damian: she wasn't going to. I watched the whole thing.

Amy and Hannah couldn't find a response s they just returned to their seat.
Damian smiled at the pink haired girl and walked to his seat.
The teacher walked in.

Mr. Henderson: Elegant morning to you all. Before we start, a message from Eden to you. Temperatures are expected to drop. Please make sure to bring the appropriate attire. With that let's begin.

The lessons went by painfully slow for Anya. It was now 12:00 pm.

Anya: ugh!... Finally I was about go die back there.
Becky: don't be dramatic! We only have two more lessons and then you can go home.

They claimed a table and sat down to eat.
Three other boys joined them.
They decided to finish the homework now so that they wouldn't have to do it later.

Damian: Anya, I already told you. You can't do that. The question would be unsolvable.
Anya: I am going to black out.

She put her head on the table. Damian, pulled out a bag of peanuts from his bag plopped it in front of Anya.

Damian: here.
Anya: peanuts!

She opene the bag and happily munched away.

Anya: I noticed you are wearing the pin I got you... I thought you wouldn't wear it because it was cheap.
Damian: well, I only wore it because it was from you.

Anya blushed.

School was finally over. However it sated raining heavily.

Anya: good thing I brought my umbrella today...

Damian walked out of the school gate.
He pulled out his umbrella.
Anya walked over to him.

Anya: Hello.
Damian: hi.

Damian realized his driver was not here yet.

Damian: my limousine is not here yet.
Anya: well you certainly can't stay out here in the rain.

Her dad just arrived.

Anya: you can come to my home. My father I a over there.

She told him about Desmond and he was not too happy about it.

Damian: holy crap he looks like he wants to kill me. Wait doesn't that mean that I meeting Anya's parents.

Anya: yeah silly!
Damian: I forgot you can read minds.

The tall blonde man walked up to his daughter. He greeted her with a hug.

Loid: Hello Anya.
Anya: hi papa! Can Damian come home with us it's raining and his ride did not come yet.

Loid: no absolutely not!

Anya: please! I promise you I will study tomorrow!
Loid: ugh fine...One more thing your uncle Yuri came over.
Anya: Damian if that okay if my uncle is there.
Damian: yes...

Damian: she just used my name. Although I prefer sy-on boy since it's like my own nickname. But, It was very cute.

Anya blushed.
They got in the car. Loid drove to their home.
Soon they made it. Damian was expecting a big house not necessarily a mansion but he was surprised by the simplicity of Anya's home. It was quite small, with not a lot of rooms or a fancy chandelier.

Anya: welcome to Anya's home.
Yor: welcome back home miss Anya.
Yuri: hey kid.
Anya: Hello uncle Yuri.

Yuri: how is. Lottie home already I was expecting him to take at least 10 more minutes.
Anya: I don't get why uncle hate papa so much.

Yor: you must be Damian. I am Anya's mother. Nice to meet you.
Yuri: is he the boy you told me about?
Yor: yes.
Anya: I am going to go change. You make yourself at home.

Anya went to her room. Damian was now left alone with Anya's family. He didn't know that they all had secret jobs that may or may not involve killing.

Damian sat quietly. He took of his imperial scholar cloak and put it on the side of the chair.

Damian: please hurry Anya and save me from your family.

Loid: so, Damian Desmond. What are your intentions for my daughter?
Damian: nothing. She is a very sweet, kind, loving, caring person. She loves me for who I am and not for what I look like or my background. I love her too.

Anya overheard the conversation. She was blushing and was flustered.

Yor: that is very sweet. She always talks about you and how you care for her.
Damian: really?

Anya finshed and came back.

Anya: I am done.
Loid: Alright I will serve dinner now.

Loid prepares the plates. Damian realized that the dishes were very simple. Sure there was garnish, but it was very different from what he usually ate.
They all sat down.
Yuri's phone started ringing.

Yuri: Hello.
???: Briar we need you at headquarters Stat. There is a suspect and he won't budge.
Yuri: why now? I am with my sister's family.
???: this is urgent.
Yuri: *sigh be right there.

He hung up.

Yuri: sorry I got called into work.
Yor: This late?
Yuri: they are saying it is urgent.
Yor: it's fine.

He grabbed his stuff and opened the front door.

Anya: Bye!
Loid: safe trip.
Yor: Bye Yuri.

The door shut.

Yor: I was hoping he could have stayed for dinner.
Loid: that is unfortunate.

Loid grabbed the plates.

Loid: Anya and Damian, please set the table.
Anya: okay...

They took the plates and put them on the table one for each person.

Damian: no one sets them for you?
Anya: Nope. We can't afford a servent so we do everything ourselves.

Soon they all sat down for the meal.
Damian took a bite. It was surprisingly good. It warmed you from the inside out.

Damian: this is very good Mr. Forger.
Loid: glad you liked it.

Loid: maybe he isn't too bad.

After, Yor talking to Loid clean. Anya sat beside Damian who was reading a book.
She felt very bored. She had an idea.

Anya: how about we make cookies!
Damian: sure!

She started by dumping some flour in a bowl and throwing in some eggs. Damian removed the shells that ended up in there.
By the time thay where shaping the cookie dough everyone joined in.

Loid: Anya, what are the shapes you are making.
Anya: I am squares, rectangles, and triangles.
Loid: if you do that it is going to spread all over!

Loid was focusing on the mis-shaped dough balls.

Damian got lost in his thoughts. Sure it was a small house, but it had something missing in the Desmonds' household.
Love. Damian felt a fuzzy feeling. He felt welcome in her family.

He was sent home with a basket of cookies. Before leaving he gave Anya a gentle kiss.
