Chapter number 6.

After some time of peaceful sleep, Rosette was woken by Chrono "Wake up love, Aion can be here soon" he said "We overslept"

She groaned and looked up at him "What? We overslept?"

Chrono smiled "Want me to call Aion and tell him to come a little later?"

"Yes" she murmured and stretched. She felt a sweet kiss planted on her cheek, before the nice warmth beside her vanished. She heard him talk with Aion on the telephone, telling him to come a little later.

She still was in bed when Chrono came back to her. He smiled down at her "It's time to get up darling" he whispered and leaned over her to nuzzle her neck. She giggled "I know, I know… I'm on my way" she smiled and pushed him away.

"Did you sleep well?" he asked, leaning in to kiss her. She smiled "Actually, I did" she replied "When will Aion be here?"

"In about an hour" he smiled and got up, taking her hands and pulling her with him up. He hugged her and whispered a sweet "I love you" into her ear.

"You're still trying to make me forgive you aren't you?" she asked suspiciously, making him chuckle "Of course I am sweetheart" he purred "I don't want any bad surprises to happen"

"You know what?" she whispered

"What?" he pulled away a bit so he could look at her.

"No matter what you do, it won't work love" she said with a smug grin.

Chrono sighed "Applesauce" he gave her a pouting look "How can you do this to me?"

"Easily darling, it just needs practice" she smirked and pulled out of his arms. He gave her a smirk of his own "You're good love really good… but like I said, as long as we live in the same house, I'll be the best"

"Is that a challenge?" she asked daring and turned towards him.

His smirk grew bigger "Maybe" he replied and stepped over to her. They looked at each other in a challenging manner "Wanna see who the best is?" she asked.

"You know who that is going to be love" he replied.

Rosette stuck out her hand towards him "Let's see" she smirked "If you dare"

He took her hand and shook it "Deal" then they let go and Rosette disappeared into the bathroom. Aion would be there soon, so they had to hurry.

When she came out, Chrono had prepared breakfast and was now sitting on the couch. He noticed her and smiled "Come here"

After their little contest, she didn't really trust him anymore. She never knew when he would do anything to her "Beside you?" she asked suspiciously. Chrono blinked "Of course" he replied "Where else?"

She eyed him a suspicious look, but then decided, it would be safe enough. He smiled and pulled her close to him "Are you nervous?" he asked with a smirk.

"You bet I am" she grumbled "Why did I make this challenge?"

"I dunno" he smiled and turned on the TV.

They sat there for a while, until the doorbell rang. Rosette was about to get up, but Chrono held her in place "I'll go" he said and kissed her. Outside stood Aion "Hello Aion" Chrono greeted "Come in"

"Greetings" Aion replied with a smile "Is your sleeping beauty awake too?"

"Sure"

Rosette walked over and hugged him "Hello Aion"

They sat down at the table and started breakfast "Are you hungry Aion?" the blonde asked. Aion nodded "I'm starving" he smiled and took some breakfast as well.

While eating, they were talking about all that had happened. Rosette told Aion what she disliked about Satella. Aion was amused "I see" he replied with a chuckle, the blonde continuing to rant about what the red head had all done and said.

After breakfast, they sat down in the couch. Aion and Rosette sat on it while Chrono found an armchair. Rosette watched Aion while he talked. His hair wasn't as thick as it once was, it was thin and in some places, she could see small bald places.

His skin now had a little more colour, but compared to the skin colour he had a year ago, it was terribly pale.

He wasn't walking often, and today he had a walking stick tightly locked in his hand.

Chrono noticed her concerned look at his brother and smiled softly.

"So, are you planning anything for today?" Aion asked curiously. Chrono turned his attention back to the white haired man "Actually, I was planning to invite my fair lady out" he smiled "She needs to get out of this stuffy apartment"

Rosette blinked and threw him a confused look that made Chrono chuckled "Don't look at me like that love" he said "I still have money so we can have a nice romantic evening"

She settled on smiling at him, she just hoped he wouldn't find a too expensive restaurant, or a McDonalds.

"Well well well, my brother actually has grown up nevertheless" he teased "I never thought you would"

"Very funny oh dear brother of mine" Chrono grumbled "When are you going to find a nice girl?"

Aion smirked "I can find one when ever I want" he said smugly "But right now I'm not in the shape to do so… maybe when I'm back to my full health I will"

Chrono laughed "You better hurry before all the good girls are taken"

"Don't worry, I will" then they both burst into laughter.

After a while, Aion became tired and called a taxi. He wasn't able to walk all the way home. When the taxi then came, he waved to the couple and drove off.

Chrono and Rosette had just entered their apartment, before a new ring on the doorbell was heard. Rosette sighed and walked back to the door to open it. Outside stood Satella.

The blonde immediately narrowed her eyes "What do you want?" she asked unfriendly.

Satella didn't care much "I am here because I need a clever man that can install my oven and fridge" she replied and walked by her and into the apartment. Rosette growled "Hey, I didn't say you could come inside" though the red haired woman ignored her.

Chrono was in the couch when she came in. Satella stepped over beside him and repeated the question "Could you help me install my fridge and oven dear?"

He looked up "Uhm… sure"

Rosette glared at her "Can I come as well? Maybe I can help too" she was not going to leave him alone in that apartment with that woman.

Chrono smiled "I could always use some help" he said.

They walked out and into the new/old apartment. Rosette gaped; it looked as if a royal was living there. Everything was perfect, no dust and no dirt anywhere. All the furniture and stuff looked very expensive.

Satella showed them the kitchen. When Rosette lived in the apartment, it all looked totally different.

"Why do you want Chrono to install the things when you always eat in a restaurant?" asked Rosette after a while.

"I won't use it, I just want it so people don't think I'm a snob that can't cook" Satella said

Rosette bit back the comment that was about to slip her mouth. Instead she watched Chrono that was sitting on the floor, trying to figure out some different cables.

When he was almost done after about two hours, Satella bowed down and examined his work "Mmm… really good" she said amazed "You really know how to do that"

"Thank you" Chrono replied with a smile "Want me to do more?"

"No, not right now" she answered "But you could stay for a while if you like... I could use some male company" she fluttered her eyes at him again and leaned in towards him, just to let her face hover a few centimetres from his. It seemed she had forgotten all about Rosette still being there.

Rosette cleared her throat "I think I'll retire to our own apartment" she said "I need some rest"

Satella snorted "But you didn't do anything" she said in a mocking chuckle

"I know and I wasn't the only one as you should know" Rosette snapped, then she spun around and marched out of the apartment.

In their own apartment, Rosette walked over to the living room window and stared outside. She sighed "Why did we deserve such a neighbour?" she thought.

Suddenly she felt the familiar arms around her, pulling her against a warm surface "Hey what's wrong?" Chrono whispered "Every time you see Satella you get into a bad mood… and you only know her for a couple of days"

She turned her face to look at him. He didn't smile, he just looked at her, waiting for her answer "It's nothing" she replied and looked back out the window "I just don't like her much"

A light chuckle came from him "I can see that love" he said "The only question is… why?"

She broke out of his arms and sat down on the couch "It's just the way she is"

Chrono sat down next to her "She is quite… difficult, but maybe if you get to know her better, you'll see she can be quite nice"

"I don't actually want to know her better Chrono" she hissed and folded her arms in front of her "We are the absolute opposite of each other, she is a snob and I am a poor young woman without a job"

"We'll find you a job love; I'll help you with it" Chrono said and pulled her against him, so her head rest on his shoulder "We can start tomorrow looking for one in the newspaper if you like"

"Thank you" she said in a whisper and closed her eyes, just listening to his soft breathing "It's okay, just relax until we go out for dinner" he said and leaned his head on hers, and looking out the window. Soon the blonde had fallen into a deep sleep.
