Elle was extremely tense as she walked up the stairwell with Noah on her hips and Luke behind her. She was able to move up the stairs faster then him since he was weighted down with bags. He offered, more out of consideration, but Elle took full advantage of it and loaded the poor teenager down with bags.

Elle knew she was playing with fire and hoped like hell that Noah and herself wouldn’t be burnt, but she wanted this! Especially after meeting Luke and hearing how he was left alive. Even though she was tremendously jealous, she knew if Gabriel would let this kid live after seeing him again, she’d stay.

Yes, it was a trap for both of them, but she had to know! Elle needed to know that they could try to mend the broken pieces and be a family. Luke’s life hung on the edge by her curiosity, but it was worth it for Noah could have the life that Elle and Gabriel both always wanted. However, if Luke died, Elle and Noah were going to leave and weren’t coming back.

Her and Gabriel had a lot to work through, but as of now, Noah will have his father in his life. She secretly prayed in her mind that in the next few minutes she could say keep saying that.

As she stopped on the second floor, Noah kept repeating “ma ma ma ma” over again for he wanted to be put down and Elle looked at him with a smile and then placed a finger to his lips for him to stop babbling. She turned and looked back down saw Luke struggling. She felt sorry for him, to her he seemed like a good kid, just misguided and she almost, just almost felt bad for putting him through this plan. However, she needed to know though, she needed to see, that Gabriel had changed. You could tell anyone something, but to show it was true would prove it.

“He is in C.” she called down to him and then disappeared to look for his apartment. Once she was at the door, she sighed, and then sat Noah down straighten out his outfit and pulling down her shirt. She had kicked the mat and noticed a key. “Your daddy is such a dork.” she commented to Noah as she picked up the key and then looked at the door.

In a quick swoop, Noah was back on her hips and she unlocked the door. “Hello…” she said softly as she let herself in the apartment. It beat waiting nervously if she had knocked and waited for him to answer. She walked in, slid the key in her pocket as she looked around, the apartment looked nice. Noah hugged on to her tightly and Elle put a finger to her mouth as she listened to whistling and followed it through the apartment.

The whistling lead her to a room in the back and Elle peeked her head around to see a nursery fully set up. She was astonished at the sight since Gabriel went all out! Really, she shouldn’t have been so shocked. She knew he would go overboard. She brought her mouth down to Noah’s little ear and whispered something repeatedly. She knew he wouldn’t make the connection yet, but he was old enough to duplicate simple two-letter word when told. Noah cooed and then said “Da Da.” Elle smirked as she looked at Gabriel since they got his attention. “Hey you!" she chimed sweetly, but then she added "Really, a key under the mat? I know you are powerful and all, however you are aware there are sociopaths running around in the world?” she asked as she smiled brightly as him.

"Truth?" Sylar said, pausing for a long moment as he pulled two sodas out of the back of the fridge and crossed back over to the table, setting one of them down in front of Luke. "I did come back for you. The laptop was just a convenient excuse so that you wouldn't get a big head," Sylar said as he sat back down. "It was easier to pretend that I didn't care than deal with the consequences of actually allowing you to know that I did," He said, picking up the bottle and turning it over in his hand before taking the lid off of it with a sigh.

"If I hadn't cared, I wouldn't have gotten so upset when I decided that you'd just been using me. Like everyone else I'd known," He said, taking a long drink before setting it back down on the table. It was a greater admission than he had made in a long time. Perhaps since he'd been locked in that cell with Elle. And it was certainly not something that he was used to doing by any means.

"You... cared?" And for a moment it was clear that the information simply baffled the teenager. Luke had spent most of his life thinking, as many teenagers do, that no one cared. His ideas were simply supported by the fact that everyone around him either hurt him or left. He'd known from a young age that his mother didn't really want him around. It was strange to have someone say they cared and admit that they'd come back for him. Opening his soda he took a quick drink, using the time to think of the right response to what had just been said. It was new and unexpected but... not unwelcomed.

"At first I think I was." he admitted softly. "I had information you wanted and you had a way out. It seemed so... easy. I killed that agent because I'd never met anyone with an ability before but afterwards... I guess I don't know what I was thinking and I'm sorry about that. Afterwards though, I thought you were just like me in a way and I kept the address because I didn't want you to leave me. You didn't even seem to like me, I knew I annoyed you, and yet you were the first and only connection I'd made since... well this." He frowned as he lifted his hand and watched it glow red for a moment. "And you were willing to teach me things. Even if a lot of that information came with a long winded lecture about self control that I only half listened to." It had almost been like having a brother. Someone who he could rely upon and look up to, even if he wouldn't admit that. He'd enjoyed their time on the road together even if he occasionally ended up telekinetically pressed against the window while Sylar reminded him that he was killer.

"Okay and I guess I don't need to say it but maybe I was just a little attatched to you. But just a little. In a silly way I imagined that maybe it was what having an older brother was like. I don't have one so I have nothing to compare it with and I assume you don't have one so you can't really correct me on it. But, yeah, I cared. I was disappointed when you left the first time and just... an idiot when you left the second time because I knew you weren't coming back and I still waited." His frown deepened just a little as he drew into himself.

"Anyway..." he said as he tried to change the subject to one that wouldn't be too difficult for either of them. "I know I can't really but maybe I should try and go back to New Jersey. I don't know what else I'm going to do with myself. I didn't even finish high school." Though, in the end, that was really his own fault.

"The GED test isn't hard," Sylar said, taking another sip of his drink as he tried to incorporate all of that information into the things that he'd already known. "Most people could probably pass it after middle school," He said before offering Luke a slightly amused smile. "And I'd say you're right. I probably was like having a brother considering you annoyed me half to death, but I still willing put up with you," He said, chuckling quietly to himself. He was even abusive like older brothers were supposed to be, though, perhaps, that had been a bit worse than typical.

"You can stay as long as you need to," Sylar said after allowing a long stretch of silence to fall between them. The apartment wasn't exactly set up to house three adults and a baby, but they would make do. Sylar could rearrange some of the furniture, maybe move the actual crib into the room with him and Elle. Unless Luke didn't mind sharing the room with the toddler, and he could manage to fit a twin bed in there as well. They would manage. "And don't say anything about not wanting to be a bother because it isn't."

Test. Luke hated that word, seriously hated it. Tests were the bane of his existance. "You mean I'm going to have to spend time studying?" he asked, voice containing just the smallest hint of a whine. "I wonder if it's too late to get myself thrown back in jail..." He huffed before breaking into a smile and taking another drink of his soda. "Yeah, for a confessed serial killer you really did have a lot of patience.... even after I gave you the address." He teased softly. He never really meant to annoy Sylar. It was just something that kind of happened though... he did have to admit that he had fun poking at Sylar to see just what he could get away with.

"I hate it when you leave no room for argument, you know?" he sighed as he finished up his sandwich. He wouldn't argue or say anything about being a bother though it probably would be a little awkward for everyone. He wouldn't mind sharing a room with a toddler if it came to that but Luke was certain it wouldn't be a permanent thing.
