Allen motioned for me to sit as he flipped a second pancake onto a plate, pulled maple syrup out of the fridge, and sat them down in front of me. I thanked him as he got me a fork and started fixing his own pancakes. I drowned the pancakes in syrup and began to dig in as Allen talked.
"Julia...do you want to talk about what happened that scared you so bad last night?" I nearly choked. My mouth still full, I shook my head no, but motioned to the bandages on my arm. "After you went back to sleep, you started to have another nightmare and scratched yourself." He explained as he sat down with his pancakes and a beer. While he took the syrup, I opened the refrigerator door to find the fridge full of beer. "Holy mother of pearl...I think I'm in heaven!" He laughed as I pulled out a beer, slightly giggling myself, and sat back down. He looked at me and held up his beer. "To a brand new friendship!" I clanked my glass against his and added, "and to a hell of a lot more beer!" We laughed and took a swig of beer.
We talked over the pancakes and beer and when we finished, decided to watch some TV. Allen turned on the television and it came up on Big Bang Theory. We both yelled "YES!" at the same time, looked at each other and laughed off the awkward. As we watched, Allen put his arm around my shoulders, and I leaned on him slightly.We talked about the show and about each other during commercials, and laughed when Sheldon, Raj, and Howard play Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock and all of them kept choosing Spock.

We decided to play Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock. He threw out Spock and I chose Lizard...winning. He over dramatized his loss and pretended to really be poisoned. I laughed at his child-like-ness. He tapped the bottom of my chin with his pointer finger knuckle while saying, "I thought I could get'cha to laugh. Do you wanna go out for lunch later?" "Sure Allen!" I said cheerfully.
We talked for about two more hours than went to get ready for lunch. He told me to dress fancy when he remembered that I didn't hardly have anything. He told me we would eat lunch at the mall and go shopping for more clothes while we were there. I sat in my room a few minutes before we had to go...just thinking. There really are good guys out there besides Justin. I smiled at the thought and heard Allen call my name to let me know he was ready to go. "I'm coming!" I yelled back. I ran down the stairs to go to the mall, smiling at the thought that I might have finally found a home where I was cared about. Then the thought of Father crossed my mind...
