I know this chapter kind of sucks but bear with me My day has been filled with distractions all day.
*Knock, Knock* Fallon looked over and smiled "Hey kid, Liz, Patti" she had a huge smile on her face "Guess what" Pattie guessed "You have a giraffe in the closet?" Fallon gave her a look as if she had two heads "No guess again" Kid smiled, he nurse had told him this morning.
"You're being discharged?" Fallon smiled "Yep, we have a winner" her smile was huge "But if you guys don't mind, I think I'll shower first"
Kid, Liz and Patti smiled "Maka gets discharged today as well so I think we'll go visit her while you are getting ready to go." Fallon nodded and walked into the bathroom with her change of clothes.
Fallon walked down the halls towards Maka's room "Knock knock" she peeked around the corner of the door "Hey fallon" Makas voice rang as she finished changing "Hey Maka-Chan" Maka turned and waved "Excited? You've been in here for a while haven't you?" her question felt more like a statement "Yeah" A nurse came by with discharge papers for Maka and for fallon, they had not found her in her room and figured this is where she'd be.
"Fallon Maka if you can sign these and leave them outside the door you're free to go" Fallon hurried to sign the papers and smiled before realization hit "Kid…this means I have to go home…." She flinched just thinking about it. Kid placed a comforting hand on his new found friends shoulder. "If anything happens I'll be there with you, but in the mean time I'll see if I can pull some strings with my dad and see if you can stay with us until you can find your own apartment" Kid smiled and Fallon smiled back.
"Hey kiddo!" speak of the devil In walked lord death "What's up, what's up, what's up?" he looked at the girl who now hid behind kid "Dad what brings you to the hospital?" Kid was concerned "I just wanted to see this girl you've been talking about, you're right she is very pretty" Fallon blushed.
"I-I wouldn't say pretty" Kid was flustered "Oh Kiddo, she is modest as well, she's a keeper" Kid blushed "And by the way it's fine if she stays with us in the mean time I'll look for a dorm at the academy if she is interested in enrolling" Fallon smiled "I'd be honored I think I could do the academy a descent service but I'll need a meister first" Kid looked at her "You're a weapon?" Fallon nodded "Well I guess assuming does make an ass out of you and me…but mostly me" Fallon laughed.
"I wouldn't say you're an ass, I'd say you were really sweet" Kid blushed again. "So Kiddo why not take fallon back to her house to get her things" Death set the clipboard back down on the table Kid grabbed her hand and she blushed, it was warm.
"This is it" her mom had spotted the two from the kitchen window and had put on a fake smile as she greeted them "Oh how nice you brought a friend home" her expression said happy but her eyes screamed harm, Fallon's hand tightened around kids, he gave her a comforting squeeze back to let her know he knew.
Fallons mother ushered them into the house "So, Honey what's your friend's name?" Fallon faked a smile "Kid" Her mother frowned all of a sudden "As in lord deaths son?" Kid stepped forward as if to act proud "One in the same, I decided to stay with him until I find my own place, you and dad are just not good parents" Fallons words came out quietly but she felt proud of herself until she felt a hand across her face.
"You little bitch, after all your father and I have given up for you" her mother was pulling her hair now as kid stepped in "Remove your hands or I'll remove them for you" Fallon's mother looked at kid "Fine take her, she's useless trash to us anyways, I'll even pack her suit case.
Fallon stepped forward and slapped her mother "You're be lucky to have someone like me as your daughter, but if you can't see it now you never will" with that she stormed upstairs with kid in tow and started throwing all her stuff into suitcases.
Once finished the two had headed towards gallows mansion "It's huge!" kid smiled as Fallon's aquamarine orbs sparkled like a child's on Christmas morning. "Come on I'll show you to your room" He led her upstairs and down the hall to a room at the end.
"I hope it's to your liking" he opened the door.
The walls were white with black trim around the bottom of the walls. "It's really nice of you guys to let me stay here, I assume I start classes tomorrow" Kid nodded "Yes, We can go together with Liz and Patti and who knows maybe you'll find your weapon" Fallon smiled "Alright well I'm going to unpack" Kid nodded "Alright well dinner will be done around 6:00 if not sooner" Fallon nodded "Alright we'll I'll be down as soon as I am finished" kid just turned and walked out of the room.
Fallon finished putting her stuff away and looked around proud at the room's current arrangement "Done" she smiled with contentment and left the room to go downstairs.
Kid smiled as the girl ascended the stairs "So you all settled in now?" She nodded and he led her into the kitchen where dinner sat on the table "It smells good kid, what is it?" he looked at her as if it weren't obvious "Its sushi and teriyaki chicken over jasmine rice" he walked over and pulled the chair out for her.
"Thank you kid" she pecked his cheek before sitting down, Kid blushed and took a seat across the table from her as Liz and Patti walked in.
