Jack had been looking at the clothing given to him. He was about to ask where a bathroom was when the older man asked what he wanted to eat. Jack looked over at him, then did a double take, his green eyes widening behind his glasses.. He was sexy! Jack blinked it off to answer the question though. "A-anything. J-just, u-umm f-food. P-p-please," He whispered, cursing himself and blushing because he stuttered so bad. He was worried that the older man would see, seeing as his wet hair bunched together and left spaces. He decided to let Lyla sleep- she had eaten today, using the last of thier money. His sleep, on the other hand, could wait.

The orange haired neko nodded and walked out to the kitchen. He noted the blush and studdering of the other Neko but didn't call anything out about it like he would have normally done. "The bathroom's down the hall on your left," Skulls called out while dragging out some pans. Once the pans where out he walked to his fridge which had the freezer on top and pulled out some fish. White carp to be exact. he glanced at the fish and decided to cook the whole thing up just because he didn't know how hungry his guest would be. Pulling out some white wine, knowing it would work well with the fish he prepared it expertly. Though that should be expected he worked in a restaurant all his life.
Pulling out a plate or two, he set the table for the one guest figuring apple was to tired to get up. Wine glass, glass of water, two forks, a knife and a spoon, all placed correctly. Napkin also. Walking back over to the fish that had just finished he put it on the other plate and covered it so that it would keep it's heat. Turning off the stove he walked back to the fridge pulling out some lettuce, strawberries, walnuts (from the cupboard), red onions, carrots, and some sauces. He placed the sauces on the table with the fish than walked back to prepare the salad. slicing the carrots to thin straight lines, preparing the lettuce, washing the strawberries, and sprinkling on the walnuts in a small bowl. Placing that on the table Skulls walked back to his bakery cupboard and pulled out a loaf of french bread slicing it and putting it in a clothed weaved basket. bringing that to the table and putting out a plate o olive oil with rosemary, pepper and a little vinegar.
Sighing proud of his hard work he walked down to a closet and opened it finding it was larger than a closet but he knew that. Moving his way around the dimly lighted space he pulled out a bottle. A bottle of a different wine to be exact before walking out again and opening it. Pouring himself a glass also since he really didn't eat all day either.

Jack walked down the hall to the bathroom, noting it's position in the house. He quickly changed into the other man's boxers and teeshirt. It was a Jack Daniels teeshirt. He chuckled softly at the irony. That also reminded him, he didn't know his savior's name. He hung his wet clothes on the side of the tub, as well as his sister's. He then turned and left the room, following his nose to the faint-worthy scents coming from the kitchen. When he got there, he paused silently in the doorway. Speaking of faint-worthy, the shirtless neko in the kitchen was gorgeous. He stared for a moment, then sneezed. A light blush graced his cheeks again, and he looked at the man.

Skulls heard a faint sneeze from behind him and turned to see the other neko in the jack t-shirt. Whiskey.... Whiskey sounds like a good nickname for the guy. His thick rimmed glasses fit him fairly nicely as Skulls took notice. Smirking slightly at the blush he walked over to a seat and sat down waving his hand for the other neko to sit down also. He didn't know if whiskey would be a good fit nickname since it was his t-shirt though it fit him better than Skulls himself. cracking his neck slightly he stated "I hope you enjoy the food... if you don't care for it I can always make you something else." He offered fairly nicely for him.
His legs stretched out facing the other neko as he poured himself a glass of fancy wine. he got a lot of the food products free from his parents who worried that he wasn't eating enough. His height was probably why he was so skinny since being tall was just how he ended up.

Jack sat down at the table in front of the food. He used as many table manners he knew to take the first two bites, but the hunger from a three day fast soon caught up to him and he started eating faster; a few of the instincts from eating so often in the wild catching up to him. After finishing the fish and the salad in almost nothing flat, he paused to take a drink of the wine. His eyes widened then and he turned a million shades of red because he realized just how ... feral he must have seemed just then. "S-s-sorry. Th-that was t-terrible. I-" he cut himself off- about to admit to the lack of food, money, and sleep he and his sister had had lately.

Skulls noticed how hungry his guest was but said nothing or made no notion on how quickly the food disappeared. He swirled his wine glass make the alcoholic beverage swish around also. As the neko ate quite quickly he may add. Taking a sip from his glass staring forward at the spot where the Neko had once stood. Though the pause of moving of fork utensils made Skulls pull the wine away from his lips wondering if they were going to speak or what. This was the first guy in a long time that he couldn't read ever so well.
Turning his eyes he saw a red blush go across the other neko's cheeks as studdering words left his mouth. turning his eyes away a clam face and softer eyes Skulls replied "Don't worry about it considering it seems since you don't have a place it's to be expected." He liked how this guy would trip over his own words.

Looking up at the man, Jack licked his lips. He was an amazing cook. Suddenly, he remembered the lack of introductions. Normally, he wouldn't tell people his and Lyla's names; on account of the fact that people have a knack for remembering things they're not supposed to. But this neko seemed different-trustworthy. Of course, he had given them a place out of the rain. And food. Jack opened his mouth, closed it, then opened it again. "I-I'm J-JD, b-by the w-way. A-and my s-sister i-is Lyla."

The orange neko fully turned his head towards the black neko now known as JD and replied being calmly polite "Skulls, nice to meet you JD..." Not understanding what JD stood for he than asked "If you don't mind me asking, what does JD stand for?" He finished his glass of wine before standing up and placing it in a sink cubby for him to wash. 'There's a spare room for App- Lyla to sleep in past the bathroom. You can use my room, for sleep, he thought as he began to pick up the empty plates that once held food. He knew it would be better if he took the couch since the two of them probably hadn't had sleep for a long while.
Turning on the sink filling it with hot water he knew the burns on his arms would sting going into the warm water but that wouldn't matter he'd have to do that tomorrow to since that's what his work would be like. Damn, would he just love to lay in bed all day.

Jack walked over next to Skulls and started rinsing the clean dishes. It was the least he could do. "J-JD s-s-stands f-for J-Jack D-Daniel. J-J-Jack D-Daniel C-Crushank." Jack blushed (again *eyeroll* ). Being so near this godly neko, coupled with fatigue, was making him stutter much more than normal. He looked down to the amazingly interesting dishwater, then suddenly grabbed Skulls' wrists, gently pulling them out of the scalding water. "These are bad. You should let me fix this. I'm good with injuries." He spoke to the injuries, inspecting them.

Skulls silently thanked JD as the black Neko started to rinse the dishes. it'd make his job ten times easier than before. He gave a slight nod as a smile fell on his face. Whiskey.... Whiskey shall be his nickname. The stuttering only added to his smirk, hearing Whiskey's soft yet powerful voice made Skulls want to know more about this male Neko. he noticed the blush also and stated softly "You blush a lot..." A smile was plastered on his face he finished up the dishes for washing. Pulling his arms out of the water a lot of the blisters had popped making him blink in pain as seeing that they weren't use to the air.
The sudden grab made Skulls blink in surprise and also pain though he didn't fight back. "Oh... sure ya you can help me with these if you'd like..." he didn't want to force Whiskey to do anything that the black neko didn't want to.

Jack pulled him back to where the bathroom was. He sat Skulls down on the toilet, then followed his nose to toothpaste and bandages. He pulled them out, then sat on a free piece of tub that was directly across from the toilet. He gently took one of Skull's wrists into his hands and started dabbing on the soothing toothpaste. If he recalled from past experiences, the effect of the cool toothpaste should be instant. He finished the one arm and wrapped the bandage around it, cutting it with his teeth and tying it off. "B-better?" he asked, starting to work on the next arm.

Skulls aloud the younger neko pull him to his bathroom. The push of his shoulders sat him on his ass toilet as the younger Neko grabbed the necessary items to heal the burns. Skulls sat completely still allowing Whiskey to do as he pleased. The feeling of his wrists slightly grabbed and pulled forward giving better access to Whiskey who now sat in front of him. As soon as the sticky substance touched his skin it stung yet cooled. The sting was more than likely from the cuts of the knives while the cooling was for the burns.
he gave a nod and replied a soft thanks watching Whiskey's hand movements wrapping and touching his arms. He never knew one's touch could be ever so soft and gentle.

Jack finished Scull's other arm, amazed at the muscle he found there. He cocked his head to the side then, and flicked his ears. "H-how did th-that h-happen? I-if y-you d-don't mind m-me asking." Jack had not seen a single moment where this neko had been clumsy. He finally looked up into the deep odsidian eyes, almost getting lost in them. Another blush dusted his cheeks, though light. The dark hair that usually covered his face was still damp enough that when he had shaken his hair out of his face, it had stayed out. It was strange for him.

Skulls looked up meeting the green eyes that apple had. Whiskey's seemed more experienced tough and older than hers. "My younger brother though he could carry the scalding tub that was washing knives at the time. he ended up running into me, thus creating this..." slightly explained Skulls who took notice that the hands still hadn't left his aching arms. Not that he minded though. He watched the other Neko's face it seemed childish yet like he didn't really have a childhood. His black eyes tried to study this Neko once agan, and once again he found nothing... nada, zilch.
He liked the color of Whiskey's eyes or the eyes in general. he liked the smell of the peppermint toothpaste even though it was sticky and all over his arms under bandages. Sighing he commented "it's late.... You should get some sleep."

Jack smiled slightly up at him. "Heh. S-sleep. I-I havn't d-done that s-since... w-wow. L-last Tuesday n-night. That's n-not so g-good." He stood up from the tub, and immediatly, the lack of sleep and exertion of carrying his sister around caught up to him as a wave of dizziness washed over him. He swayed, his muscles gave out, and the last thing he saw was the ground rushing up at him before he blacked out.
