When Cael heard Marshall come through the door and call out his name he smiled, happy to have the man home. He hadn't followed him today like he did occasionally, though the amount of times were much less than when he'd first been staying with Marshall. "Outside at the grill," he called through an open window. Cael had picked up a thing or two in the month he'd been with Marshall and cooking simple things like hamburgers were now simple for him. He was happy to let Marshall cook most of the time, but when the cop was out a little later than normal like tonight he was happy to put his skills to the test. "How did work go?" he asked, genuinely curious considering he hadn't been following and capable of seeing it for himself.

Flipping the couple of burgers on the grill, he looked through the window at Marshall. "When you come out can you bring some buns with you? These are almost finished."
