Simon petted April's head, teasing a lock of her golden hair with a finger as she cuddled with him.  When she mentioned Chris, he knew that sooner or later they were going to have to address this.  There was no quick and easy answer that wouldn't bite them in the ass somehow.  "There's no need to inform him, April."  Simon kissed her forehead and smiled at her.  "Chris is ignorant of your feelings, so it would take him a while to discover your actions.  Besides, I've given you a key to my apartment so we don't have to meet in public like at the Marriott ever again.  That should increase our safety from discovery."<br/><br/>"I would invite you to live with me, but as you see my apartment isn't geared to handle two people comfortably living here in the long-term."  Simon looked up at the ceiling, "I'm also just a waiter, so I can bring home the same money that Chris may have brought in the past.  I would need to do a job hunt and maybe go back to college.  But for you, I would do this all gladly."
