I Almost Said I Love You-Chapter 208

Rouge: *grins n followed behind the cell, then smelled the food* Mmm~ Oishī nioi (smells delicious) Issat for me?

Thrax: Sorry, bro. Only made enough for my baby here

Rouge: Moh~ Hidoi ne~ (Ur mean)

Ozzy stuck his tongue out at Rouge. "That's what you get for picking me up." he taunted before he moved over to the table and sat down to eat.

Rouge: *grumbled n pouted* Ur the one who asked, baka~ *went to the kitchen to hunt something to eat anyways*

Thrax: *just got himself a bag of chips n munched on them while watching Oz eat*

Ozzy grinned and ate happily, enjoying the wonderful food he'd been given. "Jeez, you're really good at this."

Thrax: *smirked* Like I told u before, being on the run n being on ur own makes u need to learn things on ur own. Gotta feed urself sometime instead depending on take out all the time. I thought u'd be used to the food I cook already bk wen we were in Frank

"Yeah, but it's still so good." Ozzy said, though he stuck his tongue out at him. "I happen to really like take out."

Thrax: *rolled his eyes* Like I dont knw tht already

Rouge: Hai, hai, Mattaku odorokimasenga sonzai (no surprise there)

Rodeo: *came dwnstairs aftr his long breastfeeding looking a little under the weather*

Ozzy huffed and pouted, eating more of his food. "Huh? Are you okay, Rodeo?"

Rodeo: Nnnhh...Just feel...kinda tired, n kinda hungry

Thrax: U do look a little pale. U want something to eat?

Rodeo: Something filling n heavy ne...

Rouge: Daijobu, ottoto-chan, I'll make it for u. U just sit dwn, k? *got busy quickly at the stove*

Ozzy looked to his food before pushing the plate over to Rodeo. "Here, to keep you going until Rouge is done."

Rodeo: Ah, domo... *nibbled at them slowly, not much strength*

Rouge: Ah! No fair! U give Rodeo-chan bt u dont give me! Doushita, Oz to-chan~? *carries on cooking anyways*

"Because you don't need it like he does." Ozzy stuck his tongue out at him before looking back to Rodeo. "Is it okay?"

Rodeo: *nodded while he nibbles* I think I need a little bit more than tht...

Thrax: *rubbed his chin* How long has this been going on? Wen did this start?

Rodeo: A-ra? Well, before I was OK...Then somehow I tend to get extra sleepy aftr feeding my futago-chan...Now it feels evn more draining... *finished his food* Okawari (more), oni-chan...

Rouge: Hai, hai. Ikimasho (coming) *finished cooking up some food n brought it to Rodeo*

Thrax: I dont think tht's gonna be enough. I'll make some more. U feed him, Rouge

"That's weird... maybe it's because your body isn't used to this?" Ozzy suggested, shrugging a little.

Rodeo: Wakaranai ne... (I dunno) *lets himself being fed by Rouge*

Thrax: Not exactly. He's been breastfeeding the twins, meaning he's burning off a lot of calories, n he needs to replenish those calories since he's feeding twice as much than normal. Tht evn happens to human females. They usually burn off at least 500 calories per day frm nursing

"Really? Jeez, I guess he just needs to eat more than normal then, right? So it's nothing serious?" Ozzy asked, looking up at Thrax before back at Rodeo being fed.

Rodeo: *was getting into the eating now, n was definitely going to wolf them dwn if it werent for Rouge feeding him coz he was still quite weak. It was almost like wen he was at the hunger phase of the pregnancy, bt not as bad*

Thrax: Yup, no need to worry abt tht *cooked up the extra n served it to Rodeo* Here, eat up n replenish ur strength

Rodeo: Arigato, Thrax ottoto-chan

"Phew, that's good then. At least we don't have to worry too much about him, just that he eats enough." Ozzy nodded to himself, smiling.

Thrax: Wat abt u, baby? U enough there? *pushed Nessie n Chico with his foot wen they kept circling, begging for scraps*

"Huh? Yeah, I'm fine now. Thanks." Ozzy said, grinning a little.

Thrax: *smirked n kissed his forehead* I'm just gonna go chk if the rest of the plumbing in this cabin working. Enjoy ur meal *went off upstairs to do his inspection*

Ozzy watched him before he got himself up and got a snack before settling back on his chair and began to eat.

Rodeo: *had finished almost half of the food n was enjoying them* Ne, Oz to-chan? U want some?

"Huh? Nah, I'm okay." Ozzy said, looking up from his crisps. "I'm good here."

Rodeo: Hai~ *was strong enough now to be able to feed himself n ate up* Daijobu ne, Rouge oni-chan. Ur turn to babysit Amber n the futago-chan now

Rouge: Hai hai *kissed Rodeo's forehead n went upstairs to chk on the kids*

Ozzy looked to Rodeo, grinning a little. "Feeling better now?"

Rodeo: *nods* Hai, much better now. I dont feel so tired, or too sleepy anymore. Bt I still need a bit of a nap later tho *yawned a bit*

"Yeah, all that food is going to make you sleepy, too. A nap would do you good." Ozzy said with a nod, throwing crisps down to Nessie and Chico to eat.

*Nessie n Chico were racing ard the floor picking n licking the crisps up n crunching on them happily*

Rodeo: Didnt think giving futago-chan milk would be so draining ne~ Sometimes Amber-chan would also nurse frm me, its like she's trying to compete with her sibs desu yo

"That's gunna happen, ya know, because the babies are going to get more attention than her. Not on purpose, they need it, but... you know, they need it." Ozzy said, shrugging a little.

Rodeo: Hai, wakata yo...Guess tht's wat it means to be a parent ne *finished his food finally n burped* Aah~ Gochisousama deshita~ (an expression to appreciate food)

Ozzy nodded and sighed a little. "She also needs to learn that she doesn't need to fight for attention."

Rodeo: *chuckles* Easy for us to say wen we had to fight for attention bk wen we were with Big Mama desu yo. We'd be Gizen-sha (hypocrites)

"Yeah, but your mother was a bitch. Your kids ain't going to have to fight for your attention, right?" Ozzy said, grinning a little.

Rodeo: Yada~ I love them all equally ne~ My attention at the moment might be with futago-chan, bt they're more chibi (small) n more helpless n they need me more, bt I would nvr forget Amber-chan desu ne~

"Good, because if you do, I will come down on you so hard, bro, you have no idea." Ozzy said sternly before he smiled at him.

Rodeo: Ne~ Kowai yo, Oz to-chan~ (ur scary, Ozzie) *giggled n poke-attacked Oz*

Ozzy blinked before he laughed and shook his head at him, poking him back. "Damn right I am."

*the two being silly poke-attacking each other, laughing like hell until Rodeo was beginning to wear out*

Rodeo: *yawned* I need that nap right now ne~

"Hm? Oh yeah! You need to rest." Ozzy said, nodding as he tried to shoo him away.

Rodeo: *grinned n ruffled Oz's hair before putting all the plates into the sink n made his way upstairs, yawning*

Ozzy snorted, fixing his hair before he got up himself, stretching and leaving the kitchen to find something to entertain himself with.
