Vector laid snug in his new bed, the covered pulled up against his face as he curled in a ball. The family "dog" rested at his feet to protect him, even though only weeks ago he would have attempted to tear his new found friend to shreds. Gru quickly strolled by Vector's new room and smiled to himself. He couldn't help but feel sorry for the man. It made him realise how good of a father Geu was to his daughters, and how Vector's father could never measure up, even though he got everything he desired, it was never enough because the love and affection was missing. This was the reason why the ex-Villain was so helplessly depressed, even though he never showed it.

Yes, before Vector had become a resident of Gru's manner, he was immensely jealous of the relationship the girls had was their father, practically the main reason why he kidnapped them. Even though he was only hurting himself, he wanted to see how much Gru really cared. When he couldn't take it anymore, he sobbed. He also had no idea that Gru was standing right by his door. He contemplated whether or not he should enter the room. But his sensitive heart guided him to.

There was Vector, once again a blubbering mess. He sat at the edge of his bed and rested a hand on his shoulder. "Hey, I know it's tough, but I think you can get through this." Vector shook his head. "No, it's not that. It's just that-" he swallowed something hard in his throat. "Maybe there is a reason why I was never loved. I don't deserve it." Gru hated whenever anyone thought that lowly of themselves, including Vector. The man in the orange suit felt a swift hand strike across his face, he gave a stun gaze to the dominant man. "That's enough of that, you understand? While you're here, you can't talk like that about yourself."

Vector wiped a sleeve over his eyes. "Thanks, I really did need that. B-but please don't go…stay with me?" Vector's eyes grew wider and his lips pouted. Gru could not deny that face, and gave in. "Damn, you really are the neediest man I've ever met." If anyone, including Vector's father witnessed this scene, they would be completely shocked or enraged. Gru's daughters were now discovering anime and yaoi, so they would most likely actually think that this is ok, especially since they have been growing to like Vector. However, nothing sexual happened between the two just yet. The night was spent comforting and exchanging emotions.
