Eddie nodded as Aaron walked out of his bathroom, and walked into his kitchen. "Sure thing... Are you alright Aaron?" He had dropped the topic of language. Spanish was good, since it was close to French in ways. Eddie had taken Spanish in high school, since he had been fluent in French his entire life, and the school would not let him be in French class. He remembered the teaching telling him that when he spoke Spanish, he had a French accent, and he just smirked at it with a shrug, saying that if he ever went to Spain, he would just say he was from France. He didn't remember much of Spanish, but it was a step to helping Aaron. He fixed the scotch, a malt, called Campbeltown, that he always kept in stock. He had saw him reach to his pocket, before what looked almost like a breakdown, and then going off to the restroom. "Here," he went on, walking over to him with the drink, as he lightly placed a hand on Aaron's forehead to make sure he was alright, a worried look in his blue eyes as he looked into Aaron's own blue eyes.
I looked over the mail. It was a few bills, as per normal. However, there was one thing I stopped a looked at, longingly, the key still in the mailbox as I did. Our bills said either to Aaron Ford or to Ren Curtis. However, there was one thing we got that always was for both of us, and simply would say "Mr and Mr Aaron and Ren". It wasn't anything major. Just the rent, which included electric, water, sewage, and garage pick up. It had both our names, since we were both on the lease. They didn't need to send us a bill per say, but did as a kind jester, so that everyone remembered when to pay. The rent was due on the first, but they gave us until the tenth to pay, just to help out. Aaron and I paid as soon as we got the letter. Easy and simple. No waiting or worry if they got the check. I rubbed our names, as if it was the last time I would see it, but shook the thought off. "Come on," I said, with a kind pat on Gambit's head, putting the mail in the inside pocket of the duster I had on. I remembered I left my jacket at the cafe' the night I got sick, and decided to walk there to get it back. Then I would turn right around and come back home. I just needed to get out and not think for a bit. Putting my ear buds in my ears, I turned on the music on my phone, and made sure it was a group that would have no love songs on it before walking on.
