Here's a picture of Kai's dinner ^^

I wanted to give some background on Milan so this chapter starts after Kai finishes volunteering shift but before he goes home and finds Raziel still standing in the driveway.

Kai's POV

"That was a long shift!" Milan says as she stretches her hands above her head. I nod in agreement suppressing a yawn. "Do you want to grab some food?"

"Yeah, sure! I should pay you back for eating more than half of your sandwich!" I reply slightly embarrassed.

I didn't eat anything at all before coming here and Milan was kind enough to offer me half of her sandwich. Then gave me half of the one she was eating since I wolfed down the first half.

Milan scoffs. "Or do you want to go back to your boyfriend?" She says with a smirk and sticks out her tongue.

"Not my boyfriend and no I'm not in a hurry to get back because I'm dreading our conversation," I whine.

"You seem way too convinced that he won't want to date you but you never know," Milan says with a shrug before she smirks and adds, "or you could just kiss him and deal with the consequences later."

"Won't kissing him out of the blue just make it worse?"

"Maybe but it could also put things in perspective for him," she replies with a wink.

I groan. Why did I think it was a good idea to blackmail Raziel into kissing me? Thinking about how Raziel and I will move forward now is giving me a headache! "Uuughh let's just talk about you instead," I say pouting.

Milan giggles and shrugs as if asking what do you want to know.

"Why did you move here?" I question. "Oh wait! Let's talk at the restaurant, you can follow my car."

Once we arrive at the restaurant and Milan and I settle into the booth, Milan initiates conversation. "I think your question was why I moved." I hum a response and she continues, "My parents are divorced so I used to live with my mom. Then she got a new boyfriend and step son so I moved here to live with my dad."

"Did you feel out of place after the boyfriend and step son came into the picture?" I only asked because she seemed bitter when responding.

"My mom always wanted a boy," Milan sighs and looks down at the menu on the table in front of her but not seeming to see it. "So this is like the perfect family for her. The final straw was when I overheard her boyfriend saying that I was messing up his perfect family and my mom agreed with him."

Milan has tears glistening in her eyes so I slide around the booth until I'm next to her and cautiously wrap my arms around her in a hug. That's when she starts full on sobbing. Luckily the restaurant is fairly empty and we are in a booth at the back.

"I'm sorry," Milan sniffles, pulling away and wiping her face with the extra napkins the server snuck here while Milan was crying.

"Why are you apologizing! I spent our whole three hour shift whining! I should be the one apologizing for talking your ear off!" I respond as I slide back over to the seat opposite her.

"That was the first time I talked about it aloud. My father doesn't really care. We were never close so he never actually bothered to ask why I moved and I had a falling out with my two best friends before moving here," Milan explains, blushing near the end or her short monologue.

"Like you told me earlier, I'm here if you want to talk." I smile reassuringly at Milan and she smiles back. The waiter returns to take our orders and we decide to have some loaded nachos. Not being able to curb my curiosity any longer, I ask, "so, falling out?"

Milan covers her face and peeks at me through her fingers. "You had to ask!" She whines. I nod enthusiastically and flash her an innocent smile. She groans and removes her hands. "One of my best friend's boyfriend kissed me at a party on the night I heard my mom and her boyfriend talking. I was super drunk which is still not an excuse but I might have kissed him back and just maybe let him go down on me which led to him banging my brains out."

My eyes widen. "I know! I know! I'm a terrible friend! So she stopped talking to me and so did my other best friend," Milan gushes.

"He did start it and you were both drunk but you did still sleep with him so I understand why they were upset. Were they at least in an open relationship?" Milan shakes her head at my question. "But you apologized?"

"Of course! Which she did not accept! She made my school life a living hell to the point where I feared going to school everyday. I stayed for nearly three months after it happened because I wanted to make amends but the bullying just got worse so I cut my losses and moved here." Tears are glistening in Milan's eyes again.

I reach out and squeeze her hand that is fiddling with the glass of water directly in front of her. "I'm sorry they made your life miserable. No one deserves to be bullied. Trust me I know." I shudder as I remember how I almost died on Friday night.

Our food comes shortly after and I pull out my phone.

"Oh you're one of those 'I have to take cute pics of my food before eating people'," Milan teases.

"Normally yes but I'm just ordering some food for Raziel," I reply with a giggle.

"You ordered him food during work too!"

"I know but he eats a lot and him and cooking don't mix." I giggle again as I remember the mess he made of the kitchen.

"Don't you think you're spoiling him too much? I mean he's staying with you so the least he can do is buy his own food," Milan says and raises her eyebrow.

"It's not like whatever you're thinking. Besides, he saved my life. I would probably be dead right now if it wasn't for him," I reply, completing the order and meeting Milan's gaze.

I gasp suddenly. "Oh my gosh! You're not allowed to sleep with or date Raziel!" But would it really be fair to keep them apart if they somehow fall for each other? My heart clenches at the thought of Raziel with someone else. "Ok, at least not until I'm over him," I add frowning. I really don't want to see him with anyone else.

Milan looks at me in all seriousness and says, "don't worry. I don't plan on going down that road again. Also isn't Raziel gay?"

"Nope," I say, popping the p. "I guess he would be pansexual."

We finish up our dinner and continue to chat. Milan tries to pay the bill but I am adamant on paying it and she eventually relents. Then she says she'll see me at school tomorrow and gives me a brief hug.

Driving up my driveway I see Raziel standing outside and I smile a little. He must have heard me coming and came out to greet me!

When I get closer and my heart almost stops. Raziel is standing there holding two paper bags. He is shivering uncontrollably because he's only wearing a t-shirt, sweatpants and socks.

I get out of the car yelling his name as I run to him. Is he insane! Has he been outside this entire time!

He stumbles towards me and he presses an icy kiss to my forehead that sends shivers through my body and not just because his lips are cold.

"Forgive me," he whispers and immediately passes out. I catch him before he falls to the ground and I'm almost entirely crushed by his weight.

"Razzy, could you not have fainted next to a bed." I grunt as I adjust myself so that he is on my back. I send a silent prayer to God asking him to help me get this tonne of bricks safely upstairs.

I stumble and heave all the way to the top of the stairs and finally plop Raziel on my bed. I groan, rubbing my lower back. Should I have taken him to his room? I shrug. Oh well too late.

I cover him in a heated blanket. Taking off his socks, I gently massage his feet and legs then put on clean socks and tuck them underneath the blanket. I shower and change into my pyjamas then heat up some milk. I take it back to the room and not so skilfully manage to prop Raziel's head against my body and put the warm cup to his lips.

He shifts a little in his semi unconscious state and opens his mouth and I manage to get him to drink the entire mug. Then I massage each of his arms to get his blood circulating since they were still colder than I thought acceptable. Once I'm finished, I sit on the bed next to him and anxiously wait for him to wake up.

I hear him groan a few minutes later and I call out to him. I can't help the surge of melancholy that I feel when I think about him standing all alone in the cold driveway and tears run down my cheeks. He starts to apologize with tears in his eyes. He looks so vulnerable and I can't help but lean in to kiss him, hopefully conveying through the kiss that everything will be alright.

I pull away and he tugs me back to him but doesn't connect our lips. His eyes are full of adoration and warmth. Then he says that he'll be my boyfriend and my heart is immediately filled with joy. When he connects our lips again I can't help the happy sigh that escapes me. Everything just feels so right.

I have a lot of questions and we have a lot to talk about but right now we just fall asleep tangled in each other's arms.

What did you think about the chapter? And Milan? Do you think Kai should be worried about her past actions being repeated? Didn't Kai take such good care of Raziel?
