"I told you to start knocking." I commented distractedly. Declan poked his head in and smiled bashfully. "Sorry, I keep forgetting. While Pricilla and I make dinner, can you listen for the doorbell? It's hard to hear in there." I glanced up over my laptop. "Who's coming over?" He stepped into my room and shrugged. "Pricilla said she felt guilty we had to leave early last night so she invited Caesar over." "Oh?" I feigned little interest. "That's cool." "Tell me if the door rings or answer it yourself. We're having spaghetti, I know you don't like that so you don't have to eat with us." "No!" I shut my laptop. "I like spaghetti." I stared at him with wide eyes while nodding. He eyed me oddly. "Just answer the door." I gave him a thumbs up and watched him leave. It wasn't unusu
