As the tender chicken and slightly al dente pasta was chewed down, he felt the overwhelming and beautiful taste.
Silas was shocked.
I didn't know Alice could cook… especially not like this.
Silas kept chewing, Alice who was watching him started to smile.
"Pretty good, right?" She asked with her chin raised high. Clearly she was proud.
Silas nodded.
"Amazing." He said with still food in his mouth.
He wasn't gonna take the joy away from Alice when she cooked him a meal like this.
A smile involuntarily formed on her lips, Silas's previous contempt long forgotten.
She sat down across from Silas, they didn't go to the dining room, but just ate on the kitchen island.
There were only the two of them, why make life harder?
"So how was school?" Alice asked, using her hands to rest her chin.
Silas chewed then swallowed.
"Boring without you." He said.
Alice smiled.
"Don't worry it's going to start raining tonight, so I will come to school tomorrow."
Hearing that Silas felt relieved and strangely happy.
A few minutes later Silas had finished all the food Alice made.
Alice and Silas cooperated and put in the dishes in the dishwasher after rinsing them off.
When they were done Alice wanted to watch a movie, so Silas followed her to the living room.
"Let's watch Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban." Alice said as she scrolled through the catalog of movies.
Silas hummed.
"Sure."
As the movie started Alice moved closer, now they were both sitting under the same quilt, Alice holding his left hand in between hers.
"What a weird bus… it doesn't look enjoyable at all." Alice said as the red double decker appeared.
"The Knight bus? What is that supposed to mean?" Alice mumbled.
They watched as Harry arrived at the leaky cauldron, and met Ron and Hermione.
Alice frowned as she watched the wanted poster for Sirius Black.
"I think it might be him…" Alice hesitated, she didn't want to be wrong.
"Yeah! Look, who would act like that in a photo, he looks crazy, he must've done it." She trailed.
Silas smiled.
"Are you sure? It might just be a bad PR team."
Alice glanced at him with disdain.
"PR team, look he looks crazy, and why would he have a PR team…?"
Silas, faced with this question just shrugged his shoulders.
Slowly the scene shifted to the Hogwarts express and the Dementors.
"Ew, what is that?"
They watched as the Dementor sucked the happiness out of Harry.
"Creepy…" Alice murmured.
Silas just smiled. At least Alice was invested in watching the movie.
Not asking him who every character is cause she would rather be doing anything else.
Sigh.
The entire movie passed in a similar fashion.
Until…
"WHAT! The rat is a human?" Alice leaned forward.
She watched as Ron's mouse turned from little Scabbers with a missing pinky to a ugly middle aged man with a rat-like appearance.
"Doesn't he sleep with that rat?" Alice turned to Silas and asked.
Silas smiled evilly.
"I think I remember him kissing it…"
Alice's nose wrinkled.
"I hope not…"
Slowly the movie ended.
Alice was dissatisfied.
"I was wrong again… it wasn't Sirius Black, but a rat, how was I supposed to figure that out?"
Silas chuckled.
"Maybe you weren't supposed to?"
Alice pondered.
"Maybe…"
"But thinking of something else… what kind of name is Sirius Black anyway?"
"Were his parents sirius when they named him?" Alice smiled to herself.
Silas felt his lip twitch, not because it was particularly funny it was just the silliness of it.
Just then the downstairs door opened.
Carlisle and Edward were back.
While Silas and Alice had watched a movie, Edward had been in Port Angeles saving his mate.
Also… Laurent, Victoria and James have also killed another person.
Carlisle walked into the living room.
"Hello to both of you, and fun to see you, Silas."
Silas looked over with a slight smile.
"Hello Carlisle."
Alice pouted.
Did they have to come home? Couldn't they get lost on the way?
After a while more and more Cullens started to come home.
"Brother! Are you here?" Emmett said as he saw Silas on the couch.
Silas smiled.
"I've been here since school ended."
Emmett grabbed his shoulders from behind and gave a light massage.
"Wanna play some games?"
Silas shook his head.
"No, maybe some other day, I was thinking of going home for the night."
Emmett clicked his tongue.
"Oh well, but were still on this weekend, right?"
Silas smiled.
"Of course."
After getting his answer, Emmett let go of Silas's shoulders.
"Well that's good. I will see you tomorrow then."
"Yeah." Silas responded.
He slowly stood up and walked to the front door with Alice.
She watched him put on his shoes.
When he was done she stepped forward and hugged him.
Silas wrapped his arms around her waist and gave her a kiss on her forehead.
But then Alice raised her head. The intent was clear.
Silas leaned in and gave her a kiss.
After they separated.
"See you tomorrow." Alice said.
Silas smiled.
"Yeah, see you tomorrow." After he said that he turned and walked out to his car.
He got inside and started the engine. Then drove off.
On the way back home Silas felt warm.
Spending time with Alice was truly enjoyable.
He turned up the volume and listened to some music as he drove home.
When he arrived at home he parked in front of the house and walked inside.
Just when he closed the door behind him he heard a loud shout.
"NOO! How could you!?"
Silas activated his divine sense.
Was Viktor under attack? Why was he screaming like that?
But what he saw made his eyelids twitch.
Viktor was sitting with a pillow in his arms, watching some bad series.
It seems one of the girls chose the wrong partner… or something.
He walked into the living room.
"Why are you screaming?" He asked.
Viktor leaned his head back and looked at Silas.
"Oh. Master."
"I was screaming because this stupid blonde is picking him instead of him." He said and pointed towards the screen.
From his years of avoiding this kind of shit show, he knows this is some kind of reality show.
And on the screen were two dudes, and in the middle was a girl.
There seemed to be some kind of selection or voting going on.
Really, he doesn't know.
"Are you really watching this?" Silas asked with doubt. This was for 30 year old single moms.
Viktor furrowed his brows.
"It's interesting, I promise, master, why don't you sit down and watch an episode with me?"
Silas had already turned to walk towards the stairs when he heard something about it being interesting.
"No thanks."
...
Enjoy. Mwah~
