"And I'm a call away." Jaden reminded her.

"Seriously. Day or night, doesn't matter." he said.

"If you feel you need me, or need to talk to me, or someone in general, then feel free." he went on.

"I'll pick up no matter what." he assured her.

"Well.... unless I'm doing a show." he then muttered.

"Don';t have my phone on stage with me." he chuckled.

Jaden nodded.

"I'll keep that in mind if I need a place to crash." he said.

"And yeah... it'll be odd to be without each other's company..." he then admitted.

"But hey, at least you really aren't alone." he told her, as the kitten mewed from atop a cabinet that was nearby.

"Case in point." he said with a light chuckle.

Jaden just smiled as Desiree made her offer.

"Mmmm.... yeah, sure." he said.

"I suppose I can manage a cup before I gotta go." he told her.

"Welp, at least you have your own place now." he then said.

"And the kitten seems to enjoy it, too." he went on, watching the kitten tear around, investigating every little thing it could.

"...gonna be honest..." he then muttered.

"I'm going to... well... miss having you around as a roommate, essentially." he admitted.

The kitten instantly looked at where Desiree was scratching, and dug its paws in slightly.

It wiggled its behind a little, before running towards her and pouncing on her hand.

It didn't extend its claws, however.

It just batted her fingers around, rolling on the floor and mewing.

She found the kitten rolling around on the couch, playing with a stray feather that it had found.

It rolled around some, before getting too close to the edge and tumbling off.

Once it landed, it scrambled to its feet in a panic, before dashing off with a burst of speed, hiding under one of the chairs in the room.

After a second, it peeked its head out, and looked around some.

"Yup." Jaden replied.

"You really SHOULD name him. he agreed.

"Anything, that's it." he assured her.

"Feel free to head back to the den." he said.

"I'll let you know when the food's ready."

"I got it." Jaden replied.

"There's some in the fridge." he told her.

"Made it yesterday, actually." he went on.

"But Pineapple? Sure thing." he then said.

"I can do that, no problem."

Jaden looked at her, and smirked.

"Heh, thanks." he replied.

"And yeah. I am." he told her.

"Waffles are pretty plain on their own." he admitted.

"Regardless, what do you want to drink?" he then asked her.

Jaden was silent for a moment, before shrugging.

"Sure." he replied.

With that, he retired to the kitchen... and about 5 minutes later, the smell of waffles started to permeate the suite, making its way to Desiree and tantalizing her with the smell of it.

"Hey!" she heard Jaden call out.

"Fave fruit?" he asked.

"Hm." Jaden muttered.

"I see." he said.

"Well.... there IS a good variety available to you." he told her.

"Waffles, pancakes... hell, I can get a nice continental breakfast in." he said.

"Or something as simple as cereal." he added with a shrug.

Jaden was silent for a moment, before clearing his throat a little.

"Ah... well, all right." he said.

"I slept okay." he reiterated.

"Anyway, you hungry?" he asked.

"If so, want some breakfast?" he asked further.

The two of them were waiting on the couch for about another hour... with the kitten going back and forth between cuddling with her, and playing with toys.

Desiree then heard Jaden emerge from his room, and he made his way to the den.

"Oh, hey." he said, straightening his hat a little.

"Good morning." he said further.

"Sleep well?" he asked.

"I mean... well, ever since getting the kitten." he then clarified.

Just as she closed the door, she heard Jaden mumbling in his sleep.

"Nnph..." he muttered.

"Bastard..." he said.

"Stay away... her...." he went on.

"Run... get... way from here..." he muttered further.

"...protect...." he added, before it devolved into light grunts.

To her relief, she found that Jaden was not sleeping nude.

In fact, he had grey sleeping pants on, as well as a sleeping shirt of the same color.

However... that was not what grabbed her attention.

Jaden's hat was off... and his head was hanging off the side of the bed, revealing to her that he had very long golden blonde hair cascading down onto the floor...

...which the kitten was currently batting around and playing with.
