Gabe nodded,
"Okay, that's good. Thank you for allowing me to sleep here." He directed that at Michael. Gabe looked over at the desk, trying to see what could be so important he couldn't touch it. He shrugged, "okay fine, no touching the desk. Any other rules?"
"It's okay, I haven't exactly been so nice to you in the past. I can hardly blame you for not wanting to share a room with me, I would probably have reacted the same if you turned up at my door," Gabe admitted. He glanced at Bill and then to Michael, then back at Bill. "Michael, I'm sorry it's really awkward conversing through Bill, would you mind trying to speak to me directly? i know it might be hard for you but...we will have to communicate a bit if I'm living here for a while. We might as well start now."
