December 31st - Future
The day had finally come when the bitch, the so called sociopath was going to settle down into something close to normal as possible with someone she wasn’t afraid to admit she loved. It wasn’t like schoolgirl crush or love, it was real and it was the largest part of why this decision was so easy to make, the main push to take her beyond any reservations about moving in with someone she had been dating for a while now. It was difficult, she had Noah, he might not understand what is going on and then there was Riley, she always had something to point out and spoke her mind freely which was cool but when it came to Seth and her decisions with him she didn’t really want as much liberty from her.
Elle pulled out big box full of things, it wasn’t overly heavy and reason being she wasn’t dumb enough to injure herself and instead left that to the hunk Seth. The heavy boxes that is, she wouldn’t want to hurt his sturdy frame, no way. She strolled up the path towards the house, her new home and it was funny, she already thought of this as home and she had barely ever stayed in it but she had the feelings attached with a home, the safety, the warmth, it was really her first proper home where she wasn’t constantly having to prove herself or under treat of being dissected by her previous relationship. It was exciting actually to have that feeling for the first time, that glimmer of a normal life with Seth.
“Hey! Am I doing this all by myself?” She said it with a smirk as she approached the front door, she knew that Seth was helping but it was handy to light a fire under his butt every once in a while, sometimes the literate fire. A pattern however did emerged, she seemed to be emptying the car with boxes and he seemed to be inside doing something…what was he doing inside? Elle stepped inside the door and placed the box down and took a deep breath, a little sweaty as her eyes looked around for signs of life, he wasn’t sleeping! “I swear to God if you are sleeping then….” She started to walk inside a little further only to be greeted by Seth seemingly scheming because he had that smile about him that she recognised. “What is it?” Elle asked trying not to sound too curious.

He had been sitting around for a while, home was always boring when Elle wasn't around. Of course, even when he knew she wasn't going to be long. It was still boring. He had considered going for a run, but the fact that he could run a football oval in... 5 seconds, wasn't helping. He would have no where to run to. So, he stood up. Taking a quick zip around the house, making sure that everything was clean. This was about the 5th time he had done this, but, at least he could see if he missed anything the last... 5 times.
So, when Elle finally rolled up, it was a relief. He was almost going to run outside, but saw something out of place, and ran over to it, fixing it up quickly. Cleaning up another patch of dirt on the carpet, he looked up, seeing Elle in the doorway. He smiled, thinking that, he could have her boxes bought in with in a matter of minutes.
"You wouldn't think I would make you carry all those heavy boxes by yourself" Then, he was gone, he had run to the car, grabbed 3 boxes, then come back, pretending to drop one. "Geez, what do you have in these things..." He said, laughing as he did. There was no box to heavy for him, with his superhuman strength, it was great for situations like this. And his speed. He put the boxes down, and ran out to grab the others.
"So? Want me to put the car in the garage or something?" He smiled at her. He loved showing off, and he knew she loved it too, even if she wouldn't admit it.

It was half expected that he would be sitting around and making her do all the moving and while that would be annoying it would at least be normal, a normal guy thing to do but when she walked into the house, she didn’t really know what Seth was doing, he was shrouded in mystery. Then he lit up and bounced into action, speeding out to the car, grabbing a handful of the heavier boxes and carrying them in as if they were paper and she rolled her tongue along the front of her mouth, hands on her hips as she watched him showing off and casually asking if he could do anything else for her while he was at it.
Elle leisurely glanced around and then raised her hand out in front, palm side up as she wiggled her fingers, an electrical charge building into an orb as she bounced it a few times and smirked at Seth, “What did I say about showing off?” She titled her head to the side, a smile brushing her lips as she taunted him like he loved to be. He loved to play superman and while she enjoyed that he understood her she was weary about him using his powers so leisurely like she did. She knew the flip side of the coin and she wanted to keep him from seeing that side if at all possible even if it meant jolting his ass.

Well, there wasn't much that she could tell him to do while he was at it, as he had done most of it in about 30 seconds. He saw that she wasn't to impressed, although she was sticking her tongue out at him, hands on hips as she did that. When ever did that he just laughed, he hadn't seen anything sexier then that look she gives him in all his lifetime. And he had seen a fair bit in his lifetime, being able to move at the speed of light, and all.
"I know, I know" He said as she asked about showing off. She conjured a orb of electricity in her hand. "What did I say about showing off with those orbs of yours" He smiled, turning it on her. He just grinned. Walking closer to her. After a fair while of being zapped with those damn orbs, he started to hardly even feel them anymore. Well, that's not true, they cained like a bitch, but he was sure that Elle wouldn't zap him.
"Did you bring Noah?" He asked. Although the little guy wasn't his, he loved him almost as-if he was. Noah was great fun, even if they were just mucking around playing with his trains or something, Seth always had fun mucking around with him, even if that meant he was almost a child himself. "I haven't seen my little buddy in ages" He smiled.

Elle had zapped Seth several times previously and while it was for good reasons and was really a lot of fun she had grown tired of doing it. She didn’t want to hurt him, she couldn’t even for fun, and it was no real basis for building a relationship, zapping him over and over. It was something they shared, the fondness for showing off which probably was one of the many reasons they couldn’t stay away from each other.
As he strolled closer, Elle had a big smile on her lips, her charge still present in her grasp as she watched him approach before she then paused, the static from her charge in her hand the only noise before she then closed her hand into a fist, her charge ceasing. Noah, she hadn’t really taken the time to talk to Noah, she needed to really sit down and work it out before things got really difficult. “I…we haven’t talked…about this” She didn’t know how to lead, how to talk to a child about this when she knew he wouldn’t understand and she really didn’t explain these things well to adults let alone a child, her child.

Elle's voice and looks changed when he mentioned Noah. For a while, this confused Seth. What was wrong with Noah? What about his name being mentioned had made Elle so confused, like she didnt know what to say. When she said she didnt tell Noah, a look of disapproval crossed Seths face.
"Elle..." He said to her. "As much as I want you to move in, this is a big step, and... your son is a part of your life. A part of our life now. He has to know" he considered what he had just said. He wasn't sure what Elle was going to do... or say to him. "Would you like me to speak to him for you?"
"You just need to tell him, that your moving houses. That your going to be living at his friend Seth's house. Thats about the best way to tell a child something like that" He smiled. He was trying to be as helpful as possible. Seth had already set up a bedroom for Little Noah, getting him a lot of extra toys aswell and putting them in there. As a Welcome To Your New Home present. Make him feel more relaxed.

It wasn’t as easy thing to discuss with a child, moving in with someone and she didn’t want to not tell time, she really wanted Noah to know but she just didn’t know how to say it, how to discuss her moving in with Seth. Really, it should have been simple as Seth said but she just needed to time it right and know exactly what to say so Noah would understand. “I know he has to know I just need to time it right”
Elle took a hold of his hands and nodded, “I’ll tell him, I promise” She didn’t want to spoil today, the moving in with Seth, the person she loved by bringing up a tricky subject but in a way she was glad Seth did, it saved them having the conversation later. She felt really bad, she told Seth she would talk to Noah before they moved in and she still hadn’t, she should just get it over and done with. Elle half wanted just to go talk to Noah now before this get incredibly awkward. “I was thinking, since my stuff is somewhat moved in, I should go talk to Noah now so that it is done with and we can enjoy the day without this looming over our heads?” She just wanted it done, over so she could enjoy moving in with Seth.

She was coming around, which was good, she told him that she knew she had to tell him. That was helpful to Seth at least, perhaps he could convince her quicker. Well, as it turns out, he didnt even have to. She told him she would tell him this morning, so they could enjoy the rest of the day. "I think thats a good idea" He told her.
He looked at Elle, and told her. "Do you want me to come with you?" He asked. Maybe a bit of moral support would help her. Also, he wanted to go just in case she thought it was too hard and tried to back out. She would need him there, he didnt want her to do this alone, he could tell that she was scared. Scared of what Noah would think about getting separated from his dad.
Hell, Seth was a little scared that Noahs dad, Sylar, would come after him because of it. Well, he was sure it was something he could handle. Superstrength and Speed, if Sylar couldn't get him, he couldn't kill him

Elle smiled softly, looking away for a moment and then nodding her head, eyes returning to meet his, “We’ll do this together but don’t you ever make me out to be scared of anything, I’m not….I just…don’t know what to say yet but I will….” She gave him a little jolt for good measure, reminder that he could never ever make her sound scared of anything, she wasn’t. Well she was, she just didn’t allow that fear to stop her from doing what she needed and wanted to do which included moving in with Seth and also today, talking with Noah about it. Elle just needed to do this, she would have him as back up but right now, this was her thing, she needed to do this her way, do this herself. As for Gabriel, he never really knew where his mind was, he was always darting from one place to the other but he did care about Noah, she knew that so hopefully he wouldn’t get in the way of her doing this.

Seth laughed when Elle told him not to make her out to be scared of anything. Course she was like that, she hated feeling weak, and he knew exactly how she felt. He hated to feel as if he wasn't in control.
"Shall we go?" He asked. Elle's stuff could wait to be moved, this was fairly important. Little Noah was more important then where her Zen Garden would be placed.
