"Is that all?" Simon asked as Aaron came down the stairs of the apartment with one suitcase and a duffle bag.

"Yeah, I didn't have much." Aaron replied. He had already sold the rest of the things he didn't really need and only packed his clothes, hygiene products and some other small things.

"Alright then, let me help you get them to the car." Simon said and took hold of the suitcase.

Three days after the hospital visit, he was feeling much better and had gained lots of energy due to the much needed rest he received. It was now official, Aaron had agreed to go with Simon's proposal. Simon really had no intention of making Aaron do any work in the first place, he just needed to get him to agree to live with him.

They reached Simon's house and set everything inside Aaron's temporarily room. Simon let Aaron settle in and unpack his belongings while he made dinner for both of them along with Casper of course.

"Thanks for the food!" Aaron said truthfully after eating. The food tasted than than anything he had ever tasted, then again, all of Simon's meals were like those seen on fancy television cook shows.

"Glad you liked it." Simon said and began gathering the plates.

"W-Wait I'll do it. I am working for you after all." Aaron stopped him and took Simons plate and his own, carrying them to the sink.

"Right." Simon scratched the back of his neck. "When you're done, what do you say I show you around the place. It's come to my attention that the only area you know is the living room, kitchen and bathroom." He suggested.

"Alright then." Aaron modded.

About thirty minutes later, Simon was almost done giving Aaron a tour. The man had a lot of secret rooms that he forbade Aaron from entering without any explanation as to why. But Aaron didn't really question, the man had the right to have his own privacy. Though the thought of Simon possibly being a serial killer did cross his mind. But only for a second.

"That's all I guess." Simon said once they reached his bedroom door. "This is my room. If you ever have any questions or concerns just knock and I'll be out in seconds flat." He said to him.

"Of course, thank you." Aaron smiled with a nod.

The next few weeks weren't all bad. Simon would go to work about three days a week and Aaron would have to stay and clean the house—even though it hardly ever got dirty—feed Casper, and himself of course, as well as bathe the cat and make sure he doesn't cause any trouble.

He didn't need to, but he did make dinner for Simon every night before he arrived.

Everything was progressing pretty smoothly. Whenever Simon was away, he and Casper would play around the place and binge watch random movies on Netflix. He really enjoyed how life was going, not once did someone yell or hit him. It took some time to get use to, he usually never went a day without being screamed or scolded by someone.

He finished bathing and wrapped a small towel on his head to make sure he didn't drag any water. He walked over to his closet and started ruffling through to look for some clothes. He had a few more hours before bed so he just needed something comfortable that he can move in.

He found his black sport shorts and shuffled through to look for a T-shirt. As he was pushing the clothes to the left, his hand hit what felt like a doorknob. He pushed the clothes aside and much to his surprise, he saw a white door on the right side of his closet.

"What's a door doing in a place like this?" He questioned. He wanted to open it and see what was inside but knew that it was probably something that he wasn't supposed to see since Simon never talked about it.

He let go of the knob and pushed the clothes back to hide it. He didn't want to think about it anymore so he put on a hood and went down stairs to play with Casper.

The door bell went off and seconds later, was pushed open and Simon walked in. Casper jumped out of Aaron's lap and into Simons arms.

"Hey you two. How was your day?" He asked as he closed the door behind him.

"Pretty well, we were just messing around." Aaron said and stood up from the floor. "How was work?"

"Not bad, we started a new project today, we'll be working with a famous model from 'All You'. I haven't met her but I heard she's nice and her social media status is pretty impressive so I hope she's not a typical influencer." Simon said and set Casper on the sofa before sitting down as well.

"Oh, I hope things go well." Aaron said while standing in front of him with his hands behind his back and body slightly swaying from left to right.

"Hey," Simon said suddenly and stared at Aaron for a while.

"I-is something on my face?" Aaron asked, blinking in confusion.

"Why not pay my field a visit. I'm sure the crew wouldn't mind meeting you." Simon suggested.

"No way. I don't think I belong in a place as professional as that." Aaron denied, his face flushing. "And who's gonna watch over Casper?" He added.

"I used to take Casper with me before you came along so need to worry. They're very nice and open minded people so you don't have to be afraid." Simon implored. "Plus you're young, and what do you know, they might hire you as a model."

"No way."

"Yes way, I'm the boss."

"No...I mean no way. I can't model, I don't even have Facebook."

"Sweetie, no one has Facebook. I won't force you to be a model, but don't you wanna see where I work, you might learn something new." He gave him a look.

"I-I guess so. I'll go then." He said hesitantly.

"Yes!" Simon threw his fist up in the air. "This going to be the best day of your life I promise you!" Simon said with excitement and jumped up from the sofa.

The two ate dinner and called in for the night. Well...Aaron was busy staring at the body mirror in the bathroom. With all that was happening, he had forgotten how much he hated his body. He was shorter than the average eighteen year old boy, he was nothing but skin and bones and his face, he had a few acne spots here and there as well as some freckles littered on his nose. He couldn't stop thinking about how the others would view him, what if they thought he was too ugly to even be in the studio? There's a chance of that happening.

And to make matters worse, he didn't have any good clothes to wear. He never really worried about fancy attires, one: he was never in situations where he needed them. Two: he couldn't offered them. He only wore clothes from thrift stores.

He tried to find the best looking outfit he can master. Some black jeans, a long sleeved grey shirt and his only black sneakers.

The next morning when he woke up, he could already tell that Simon was already awake from the scent of blueberry pancakes that hit his nose.

He got out of bed and made his way down stairs to find Simon setting up the table. He had the two towers of fluffy pancakes decorated with beautiful blueberries and on the side, two cups of tea.

"Wow, you should've woke me up and I would've made breakfast instead." Aaron said. As much as he loved Simons cooking, he preferred it better if he did it instead, the man had worked so hard the night before, he must've been tired.

"Don't worry about it. Just eat up and get ready, we leave in thirty minutes." Simon said with a smile and sat down on the island.

Aaron sat across from him and began chawing down on the deliciousness before him.

After a few minutes, he came down the stairs dressed and ready to go. He had also made sure to bathe Casper as well before. The two waited at the entrance for Simon to finish up and minutes later, the man made his way down.

He looked incredible, his hair was slicked back in a messy way, he had black pants, a white t-shirt that was tucked into it and a blazer. It was sort of a mixture of professional and casual in one.

He grabbed his car keys that were placed in a small basket near the doorway. "Let's get to it." He said to Aaron who had been carrying Casper in his hands.

The three walked out and got into the car.
