Finn found himself a little relieved the man wasn't upset with him for having read the let'ser and called him about it. "No, don't apologize. Kids tend to have a way of doing things to help us when we don't know we need it I think." He said gently, not wanting the male to think that he thought poorly of him because of the note or anything like that, he could understand wanting to put feelings out into the world in private to never see the light of day... But in this instance, it had been brought to someone's attention.<br/><br/>When the other offered to pay him Finn felt a bit guilty and was going to turn him down, but decided that discussing details and the like could wait until they could talk in person, right now was simply a time to ensure that Brock had somewhere safe to go after school and that his father would know where the boy was. "It's really no problem at all. And don't worry about the letter." He said calmly, and after talking a moment more he gave his simple goodbye and then sat in the restroom a moment longer to collect himself... What was he getting himself into anyway? He softly shook his head and smile softly as he adjusted his sleeves, he was just happy to be helpful, he just hoped that he wasn't being a bother by doing all this for the other male.<br/><br/>He returned to the classroom and called Brock over to him. "I just talked to your dad, he said that you can come over my house again while we wait for him to get out of work. I was thinking we can cook him some dinner, what do you think?" He asked with the normal warm smile.  The boy grinned back and seemed happy with the idea which was the real weight off his chest... He had been just a bit worried about how this was all affecting the little boy, but at least he seemed okay for the time being. So, the rest of the day went as normal, and for once he was leaving on time, though this time with the little boy in tow.<br/><br/>He did have to stop at the store on the way which he was a bit worried would wind up being a lot of walking for Brock, but the child was a trooper and soon enough they were back at the apartment and he sat down with brock at the table and decided to have him get his little homework assignments done for the night first. Once that was done, as promised he had him help with making dinner. He pulled up a chair to the counter for him to kneel on so he could reach and decided on meatballs and spaghetti since it would be fun for the boy to measure and mix the ingredients, and of course, Finn handled the little chopping that they had to do.<br/><br/>The night went well Finn though, he talked and laughed plenty with the boy as they cooked and ate, and he made sure to put two servings of food into Tupperware so that Chris would be able to have dinner and something to bring to work for lunch as well if he wanted to. With that done and while Brock was watching tv he cleaned up the kitchen and eventually went to his room and pulled down some extra blankets and pillows form the closet which he brought out to the living room. "Your dad said he'd be here around eight, but if you get tired you can take a nap out here, alright?" He said warmly, carefully setting up the couch so it would be comfortable for the boy to doze on if needed.<br/><br/>He made sure he was comfortable and happy, and returned to the kitchen to pack a proper lunch for the boy for tomorrow to send back with him too... He was probably now crossing a line, but if all Chris had to do was grab it on the way out then it was surely less stressful. It was a little after eight when he had finished and had been sitting at the table doing his own work while Brock watched some rerun of cartoons, though he had noted the boy was laying down and seemed just about to fall asleep. He checked his phone and realized he'd gotten a text from the boy's father and felt guilty seeing he'd missed it, but he was too used to ignoring his phone and it's near-constant buzzing. He replied and assured him that everything was fine, that Brock seemed content and was currently about to fall asleep on the couch before he decided to take a picture from where he was sitting and sent it along to the boy's father too. Since he was already looking at his phone he scanned his other missed messages and sighed before sending a short reply stating he might be busy for a few days, which only got him a few clearly irritated replies, but he ignored those and returned to his papers.
