i reach out to my lifeline, the angels laugh in paradise
El's sickly sweet smile turned into one of genuinely pleasant surprise as George shrugged nonchalantly and went to work. They were so used to doing everything themself that they felt an imposition to anyone who could help them. After telling George their preference they laid back down on the couch, lost in thought. It had been strange, at first, living with another person again, in some ways still was. But in moments like these, El felt particularly grateful.
As George came with two sandwiches, El shifted to make room for him on the couch and grabbed their plate eagerly. Without hesitation, they tore into the food, making it disappear rather quickly.
"That was pretty good, thank you," they said once they were done, leaning back on the couch and rubbing their tummy in satisfaction. They turned their head to smile at George and say, "Now it's time for a nap."
