Macaque found himself refocusing when the front door bell's jingle reached his ears. Paired with the sound of a downpour, which became muffled again when the door clicked shut. He sat still, keeping his eyes closed. Focusing onto the small rapid heartbeat beating away in the foyer of the dojo. The slow breaths drawn in and out as water dripped onto the ground. He listened, as they gathered themselves before moving. Their wet clothes shuffled as they observed their surroundings. Before creeping down the hallway, hardly making a peep. Macaque reinstated his human glamour. Before looking over and opening his eyes to meet a curious gaze peeking around the corner of the doorway. Only for their eyes to blow open as the human child stared at him like a deer in headlights.
“Hello,” Macaque gave the child a small polite nod in greeting. Snapping them out of their shock as they dashed out from behind the doorway and bowed.
“I-I’m sorry,” They stammered, voice small and quaking. With what could've been mistaken for nervousness, and not the fear it was, “I- I thought-”
“This place was still abandoned?” Macaque carefully interrupted. Sensing that one wrong action would have this kid back in the downpour. One that shouldn't finish anytime soon if he remembered the weather report correctly.
“Yes, sir,” The soaked kid gave a short nod, peering through their dark hair.
“It’s fine,” He shrugged, before giving a nod towards the boxes pushed up against the walls.
“I just moved in a few days ago, so it makes sense you’d think it was still abandoned.”
“Plus, I’m the idiot who left the front door unlocked,” He flashed the kid a playful smirk. Getting a small smile in response as their shoulders relaxed.
“Let me get you some towels,” He hummed, purposely telegraphing his movements as he unfolded himself from the lotus pose he had been meditating in.
“You're making me cold by just standing there."
“Wh-what?”
“I’m not kicking you back out there kid,” He looked over his shoulder to raise an eyebrow at them, “Do I look like an asshole who’d let a child wander in that downpour?”
“No?” They blinked, looking baffled.
“I’m not." He confirmed turning away. Striding across the dojo to the pocket door that hid the staircase that led up to the apartment above. He slid the door open and disappeared around the corner, taking the first step up the stairs only to pause. Checking to make sure the kid couldn’t see him. Despite not having heard the kid move, besides the shivers that plagued their thin body. Macaque dropped down into the shadows and darted up into the apartment. Slipping into the closet where he stored the extra towels. Reaching out of the shadows to grab some of his fluffiest towels. Pulling them into his arms in the shadows. Belatedly remembering how the kid’s clothes were just as soaked as him, so drying off would only do so much. Macaque debated about making some clothes to fit the kid better, before realizing how creepy that would look. Ah yes, a grown man having children’s clothes on hand, not at all suspicious. With that thought, Macaque bolted across the apartment. Entering his bare closet to grab the smallest t-shirt and sweatpants he had. Which would still hang off the kid’s body by a lot, he snorted to himself as he threw them on top of the towels. Zipping back down to reformed behind the wall.
“Alright kid,” He walked back out, eyes drifting to the kid, who now had a small puddle formed under them. The kid stiffened and stood at attention. Staring at him in surprise, “I got you some clothes too."
“Though, fair warning, they're me sized-” He gestured at himself, then at them- “and not kiddo sized.” He crouched down to pass them the pile, which they carefully took with wide stunned eyes.
“There’s a bathroom you can get changed in right down the hallway,” He loosely gestured at the end of the hallway. As the kid blinked, standing there in shock before shaking their head to snap themselves out of it. Not realizing they just splashed their host by doing so, not that Macaque really minded or cared.
“Thank you,” They squeaked, cheeks flushing as they gave a quick bow before dashing down the hallway. Pausing at the end to rapidly look around before finding the bathroom and ducking into it. Macaque stared down the hallway, crouching there for a moment. Before sighing as he looked down at the puddle, following the wet marks up to the front door with his eyes. Where he could see the rain still coming down outside.
“I swear,” He muttered, cursing his soft heart for kids as he pushed himself up to get another towel to wipe the mess up.
