The moment Lady was in Akira's arms, Josh stood up, heading back to their room and keeping rather quiet. There was still that anger in him, although he was hiding it well, at least for the time being. Once he had gotten to the room, he opened the door, closing it behind him and locking it.
"I'll keep it locked, she won't get out that way." Josh assured, putting Akira on the bed and smiling lightly. "I think you should spend time with her while I go talk to my aunt. I don't want you there when she, or I am yelling at one another." Josh said honestly, knowing all too well that would happen.
