By the time Zerak finished up with his work it was already five in the morning. He yawned once again on his walk home and was glad that his fathers place wasn't too far from his work. He walked up to the front door and unlocked it, Lolita was there at the door greeting him with a soft meow. He leaned down and petted the top of her head and moved on into the kitchen. Zarek flicked on the light and walked over to the coffee pot, it was going to take a lot of caffeine to keep him awake today cause going to be right now would only result in him sleeping away the day. He sat down at the bar and watched the coffee machine brew what he was waiting for though he knew it didn't make it go any faster "Meow" he looked down and his cat was there at his feet so he picked her up and placed her on his lap. Zarek started to zone out as he was petting Lolita.

The sun pouring through his open curtains made Adam less then pleased. Turning onto his side he groaned softly but was already awake no point avoiding the inevible. Standing up leaving his blankets a crumbled mess he walked into the kitchen desperate for a coffee to wake himself up with. Boiling the kettle he checked the time 7 AM. What time had he gone to bed then?
With a shake of his head he rummaged through the kitchen in an attempt to find a coffee cup. Finding one he placed it down on the bench glad he'd brough coffee and milk. What would he do without his morning coffee.
With the coffee brewed he sat down at the table taking a sip and relinquishing the taste. Pure heaven that's what a good coffee tastes like

He was jerked out of his daze when a cabnet was closed and noticed that his brother was up getting coffee. 'Wonder how long I've been out of it" he said getting up from his bar stool and walked over getting himself a cup and pouring a good amount of coffee for him. He only stirred in a little sugar and sipped at his coffee. Zarek then wondered why his brother hadn't said anything to him when he walk in. Lolita was still at his feet rubbing on his and then he realized that she was hungry. "Sorry Lolita" he said to her and set his cup down to walk over to the pantry and got a cup of food for the cat and then he went back to his coffee. "So...were you and Jarrod betting money on the pool game last night?" He asked Adam cause it was the only thing that kept popping back into his head.

Adam looked over at Zarek then gave him a slight nod. " Sorry thought you'd fallen asleep at the table. Didn't want to wake you up." He explained. With a smile he looked down at Lolita. " Hungry are you Lolita." With a shake of his head he laughed. " Jarrod can't play pool so it wouldn't be fair of me to make a bet with him."

Zarek shrugged his shoulders at his brothers response to waking him, he wasn't gonna sleep till that night plus his boss wanted him to come back in. It seemed that it was spring break some where and for some reason they came here "True though he could never really play pool right?" He asked and sat back down at the bar facing his brother. It was odd, he actually wanted to talk to his brother though he was thinking it was because he hadn't had many conversations with people. Zarek picked his cup up and took a sip of it then replaced his cup on the counter only to rub his shoulder. His stab wound was bothering him a little and he knew he should take some pain meds but he really didnt want to move at the moment.

Adam laughed nodding his head in agreement. " No he couldn't." He said. " He was terrible. I remember when we snuck you into the bar one time and Jarrod thought he'd show you up. You sure showed him though. He's lousy at pool."

Zarek hadn't thought about that memory in a while, usually his good memories were too covered up with the bad. But at the mention of it put a small smile on his face. "Yea I remember..." he laughed lightly "Now I work in that bar" he said finishing off his coffee. He thought now would be a good time to get his meds but still he didn't move. "You guys gonna hang out again?" Zarek didn't care if his brother answered or if he thought that he was prying but he was curious and slightly bored.

Adam smiled some hearing Zarek laugh. " Yeah. Suprised me when I saw you there. Didn't know if you wanted to talk so I sort of left you alone." He admitted. With a shrug he took another sip of his coffee. " I told him I was back in town, I do want to catch up with him again though. Ran into one of the girls you were in school with yesterday at the shops as well."

He thought about it for a little bit and looked down at Lolita who was still trying to get attention but Zarek was just too tired to give her any at the moment. "I was trying to think of something to say to you but I'm still having a hard time getting passed the past" he said taking a deep breath as he wondered why he just couldn't talk like this with his brother more often. "You should tell him I say hi next time" he said finally getting to his feet, his shoulder was bugging him even more now and decided that he would get some pain killers before he wasn't able to move anymore.

He knew, oh how Adam knew exactly what Zarek meant. " Yes i've gotten a bit like that myself. I don't know what to say to you. I mean you've changed so much. Do we still have stuff in common to talk about?" He asked also curious as to the answer. " I mean it's been years I wonder if we have different interests, or still like the same things..."
That wasn't their only issue though as Zarek pointed out. " The past is the past...I think I need to learn from it." With a nod of his head he smiled slightly." Well I guess I will have to catch up with Jarrod then after all, I'll let him know you said hello...you could catch up with him with me if you'd like?"

There interested...he thought on it, what did they use to like but he knew as the younger brother there were things that he liked cause his older bother had. But he knew that there were things that he liked cause he wanted to but on his way to the bathroom he came up with a few things but other things that he detested that his brother might still like. He got into the cabinet and then took two pills.
Zerak walked back to the kitchen and nodded his head to his brother but hadn't thought about going with him to see Jarrod. "I doubt he would care to be around me..." Zerak look to the ground out of some sadness but making it look like he was looking for Lolita "he hardly says anything to me when he comes into the bar and even then I doubt he remembers who I am" he looked back at Adam "But thank you, I should get cleaned up anyways cause I've got to get back to work in a few hours. It looks like I might be working on my vacation" a wicked smile came across his face, some where between happiness that he had something to do and disappointed that he was working on his vacation.

Adam caught the look Zerak held as he stared at the ground then bluffed it of as a pretense of searching for his cat. "He mentioned you last night." With a shrug he then looked at him sympathetic." Well think of the money if that helps?" He said. " That's what gets me through my work days..speaking of which I want be around much during the week. I might stay at home or..I might look for a job here. I haven't really made up my mind."

Zerak walked over to the fridge to get a small thing to eat before he went and took his shower. Mostly he was trying to buy himself time to think of a response to his brother and he was surprised to find that Jarrod mentioned him. But then Zarek thought 'maybe Adam's just trying to be nice or something' he kind of shrugged to himself. "That would be a nice thought but I actually work there cause I like it most days anyways" now he gave a smile to his brother and found a small pizza to eat. "Well I wish you the best of luck" he said and placed his pizza in the microwave "Maybe I'll see you guys at the bar again"

Adam watched Zarek queitly still trying to make sense of his brother. " Yeah thanks." Watching as his brother put a pizza in the over caused him to laugh. " Pizza for breakfast beats some of the things I've eaten for breakfast though." Finishing with his coffee he stretched deciding to have a shower. " You don't mind if I catch up with Jarrod at the bar do you?" If his brother was uncomfortable with it he could always hang out with Jarrod some where else.

"Yea" he was kind of in his own mind a little bit but then looked at his brother after he pulled his pizza out "I don't mind at all" he walked over to the table and set his food down but he didn't sit himself. He was trying to figure out what he was going to do for the next five hours before he had to go back into work to get the bar ready for the nights work. He yawned into the back of his hand trying to stifle it as much as he could. "Could you be quick with the shower, I need to take one myself before I fall asleep...and I would rather not going into the master bedroom" he said finally taking his seat, he wasn't mean about his request but more or less a little distant probably due to being tired.
