Daven: His lost memories

Chapter 13: Stupid kitten

When they got back, Daven went straight to his study, while Brittney went to the kitchen to make dinner.

At the dinner, on the table, Brittney was bothered by what happened earlier and kept asking Daven questions. She felt like she needed to find out quickly about it.

"What if it's d**g related?"

Although Daven was getting sick of it, he calmly drank his water and wiped his mouth before answering, " For the hundredth time Brittney, I don't know... Why don't you investigate as you are used to these kinds of things?"

" Right! I will let my team know after dinner. We need to get to the bottom of this fast."

Daven frowned. " Hold up, let your team know? What if it's not that serious, they will be just wasting their time"

"So what are you saying?"

" Fine." Daven explained further." Next we'll be there, but a little early before them."

"Okay then, sounds fine with me." Brittney didn't think that too much going to investigate with Daven as her mind was occupied with other thoughts.

"Don't forget work tomorrow."

"Yeah. Sure." He gets up and went up to his room. Only then did he realize that this was the first time he and Brittney had the longest conversation without him getting indifferent towards her.

After he went into his room he changed into his sleepwear clothes and went to bed. He struggled to fall asleep and kept tossing from left to right. He then sat up straight and checked the time on the alarm.

" 9:357 Still early though."

He got off from his bed, put on his sleepers and went downstairs to his study Inside the study, he went over to a bookshelf and found nothing Interesting. Lazily walking to his computer, he sat down and switched it on. When Daven sees the background which was a photo of him and Brittney. he furrowed his brows.

"Why haven't I changed it yet?"

He goes to the gallery to look for a better picture, but was a little startled when he sees almost to one thousand photos of them together. Almost half of them were stolen pics. He lazily moved the mouse and accidentally opened one of the photos of Brittney. In the photo, Brittney whose eyes were closed, was sleeping soundly like a kitten which Daven found it adorably cute 'so this stupid woman looks this cute when she sleeps? He chuckles softly to himself.

"Stupid kitten."

Unaware of himself, Daven had a small smile which Brittney caught sight off when she entered. For the first time in a while, she was finally be able to see that smile again. What a beautiful way to end the day. She wanted to take a picture, but her phone was in her room. ' Great! Way to miss the moment Brittney.

" What are you smiling at? Let me see." As Brittney spoke, Daven who got frightened by Brittney's sudden appearance, he quickly clicked the X button on the screen and went to a random file before Brittney could even reach to his side.

" Nothing."

His sudden coldness was like a bucket of cold water poured down at Brittney. All her curiosity came to a halt before disappearing. ' Oh no! What did I do now.'

" What do you want? "the cold deep voice rang out again in her ears.

"N-nothing I'm l-looking f-for my files." She didn't even bother to look at him afraid of getting killed by his pair of two sharply cold eye, and went straight to a shelf full of boxes and carries one with out.

Daven could already tell that she was scared from all the stuttering. He sighed helplessly and said silently. ' Didn't mean to scare you...but that works too from avoiding unnecessary misunderstandings, hehe.' He laughs at himself childishly and looked back at his computer.

When he saw the word 'Diary', he quickly became interested wanting to find out what was in there. When he was needed to put in a password, he didn't think much and typed his old usual one. As expected, it was incorrect. He tried it a few more times, but failed each time he tries. He got frustrated and began guessing randomly what he would use for a password.

After some worst guesses, he gave up and went online to his news feeds, and found everything boring as he scrolls.

Getting an idea, he went to the search box and typed out. " What happened to Daven Quinn " A second later, a bunch of news showed up from different websites. Reading the headlines he almost smashed the computer.

" Damn!! that a** h**e is smart! " Turns out that Jordan covered up everything so well making it look like it was a robbery.

He went on reading and scrolling for an hour before starting to feel drowsy. He stayed there another hour, before leaving the study. Just as he was about to walk upstairs, he saw the kitchen lights still on.

" Is that stupid kitten still awake at this time." he goes to the kitchen and saw Brittney who was munching on the dinner's leftovers.

When Brittney noticed Daven, she slowly puts down down her fork, feeling a little embarrassed. " Are you hungry? "

" No. I just came in here because I heard some loud chewing, and I thought it was a pig." He lowered his voice scratching the back of his head."...and... err... I didn't know it was you."

Brittney didn't want to give him attention as she has other things to stress about. She only rolled her eyes and snorted. " Food is the only thing that relaxes me when I am stressed."

Daven wasn't satisfied with her response as he expected her to get angry. " Well, you need to mind yourself. I'm sure you made Granny Tae frightened."

" Goodnight, I hope you dream about your fear." she got up and put the bowl in the sink and went out of the kitchen.

Daven wasn't happy either as he failed to make her angry. He huffed and leaves mumbling. " Stupid kitten, pretending to be tough."
