Since he was basically just pushed out of the actual cooking by the girls, so he just stayed out of their way.  Instead, listening to their words, Nathaniel decided to do something a little useful.  He moved over to the cabinets and began pulling out enough plates for everyone but himself.  He also pulled out 2 large serving bowls, and a slightly smaller bowl for himself.  After all those were gathered he went into one of the drawers to pull out enough forks for everyone.<span style="color: seagreen">“Here, when everything is done, you can put them all in these.”</span>he said as he sat the two serving bowls down on the counter next to the girls before taking the plates, his bowl, and the forks out to be sat on the table for when the food was ready.  He also remembered to grab the soy sauce for anyone that wanted it.<br/><br/>Nate watched everyone as they started gathering in the area of the house.  Each seemed to actually answer when someone called for food.  Or at least they reacted like Diego did, turning to where the food was. Nate watched Mathew and Sarah come back in, talking about what was for dinner.<span style="color: seagreen">“Chicken Stir-fry and Steamed Rice to be exact.”</span>he corrected for Sarah.  As he spoke he sat the plates and everything down where everyone could reach them then moved back to the Kitchen, and out of the way.  He couldn't help himself as he let his eyes roam over Jenny for a moment when he was in a good position to, but that only lasted a moment.<br/><br/>The food was ready not long after, looked like everyone was going to be gathering out in the dining room to eat.  Not what he had planned, but it looked like it was just going to end up with him being dragged along just to get some food.   He had planned to just take his food and go.  Instead he just followed along, out to the Dining area and the table there.  He watched where Jenny sat, and didn't miss the nervousness, especially in her words.  With a slight sigh, Nathan took a seat next to her and grabbed his the extra bowl he had brought out while there were plated for everyone else.<span style="color: seagreen">“You have no idea.”</span><br/><br/>After immediately grabbing the bowl, Nate piled some rice into the bottom, easily 3 people's worth and then added a same amount of stir-fry on top of it.  Followed by some soy sauce.  He didn't even bother with waiting to see if someone wanted to say grace or anything.  It was completely rude... he had been failing at acting like someone you would want to hate, that should be a step in the direction he wanted.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
