Sucker's luck

[Theo Chulainn]

Down went the beer with a bitter shudder. It tasted so horrible when one had grown up on Creig's finest beer and quinines. A soft hiccuped sob escaped his lips as he placed the empty glass next to the other ten drained glasses. His head slumped on the counter as he grumbled to himself. His usual armoured body suit was in a suitcase in some shoddy cheap hotel. With Calcifer and his other weapons. He hadn't even dared asked how Chloe had gotten his weapons from evidence. Then again she had dropped him off and left. No connections. He was on his own now, friendless....

He ordered a drink and waited trying to ignore the snide comments in Amestrian calling him a drunk. He grumbled a snide swear word at him in Creig and buried his head in his arms. Soft sobs escaping his lips. His family dead.....His clan hating him unless there were the loyal....who were most likely dead now.... Gavin....Gavin hadn't believed in him either....Everyone in Crieg would kill him on the spot.

The drink slide into his hand and he downed it again. Dear lord he needed some pain to forget this burning pain. Something to remind him he was alive and not walking dead. He hadn't even be able to unwrap Calcifer from it's travel bag. Scared it was still....The tears poured over at the taught as the pain flared through his chest.

Caomihe....

Burying his face in his arm's he sobbed loudly trying to muffle wails that wanted to rip free from his throat. His Caomihe....gone like Connor... Gone forever and never to return to him. His best friend turned on him....His best friend who he loved so much now wielding the scarred lances of his brother against him. Gavin...The man he trusted now had lost all trust and belief in him.... Part of him hoped he had sent Artemis or Fiachra to hunt him down and he would be put out of his misery fast but...he had to reveal Keiran....reveal the fraudulent conniving snake the man was.

His mind was spilt as the glass was placed in front of him. "Bad break up friend?" The man said in Amestrian with a pitiful smile. "yeah....you could say that..." He slurred taking the glass.

[Guest]

Drink, drink, drink. That sounded wonderful. In Amestris? Well, why not? It seemed that Ran had nothing better to do with his time. His body carried with usual confidence in shadow. His eyes half closed, though only one could be seen as the other was covered by the bangs. Even beneath would be an odd tattoo that half covered the eye anyways. It wasn't exactly a fancy look to it. It took away from his perfect face, as well as the slit over his nose. The wound LONG since healed over but the scar would remain in reminder. The black and feathery bangs over his face would be almost silk upon his face and then the length of the body fell in a hairpiece, ponytail that drooped over his shoulder. The piece gave two red almost keys coming from the bind.

His top and pants matched as usual in his OBVIOUS Aerugese apparel. The top slicing as a v to show his well-toned chest and the peaks of the tattoo. The black on tan flavor setting of an oriental flavor that was matched only by other orientals. With the sandals to boot his feet, he sure stood out in the crowd. A mission of peace type. A vacation, a break. Why did he escape here so often? Well.. he remembered his teacher. The old hermit from such a long time ago had moved here. Once in a while Ran would visit.

Today he wanted a drink. Although he was alone, he knew it probably wouldn't be for long. Ran was a cocky asshole like that. As he gazed at the women of the bar, he would rate the amount of time it would take to get in their pants. The times elapsed as he snickered and found a seat next to a very depressed individual. The man seemed down and of course Ran managed to risk a look and a general question.

"So... what has you down?" He asked quickly, as if hoping this boy didn't notice Ran's fake interest. "Looks like you need to get laid." He would continue, rather bluntly.

[Theo Chulainn]

"So... what has you down?" Theo wearily looked up at him. Red rimmed red eye's connecting to the other's own reddish ones. "Looks like you need to get laid." He snorted slightly. "If your offering I won't say no...." He grumbled before taking his new beer and took a few gulps.

The man was rather pretty and for a moment he wondered if it was just a butch girl or if he was extremely drunk. He should really head back to that shitty hotel and try to think of what to do next. Though hoping into bed with a complete stranger did sound tempting. "Guess I could do with a pity fuck...." He glanced the other up and down once more. "Unless your the type that charge then no can do." He chuckled softly in a joking manor and stood slowly. "I need a piss...." He mumbled in his native tongue looking around wearily. Stumbling forward he almost ended up in Ran's lap. "Whoopsie..."

[Guest]

Ran was a bit deterred. The albeit attractive young man with red tear stained eyes looking at him with that sort of puppy dog look. Aahh.. damn it all.. Ran cursed inwardly. His own eyes gazing upon the form of this man before him. The look of pain on his face.. those tears... It hit a nerve for Ran. That 'cute' word.. he hated it. Why was it that the days he felt like just having meaningless sex he met someone in a mess like this. Ran admitted to being an asshole, but he was NOT a heartless one. His visible eye twitched a bit and he groaned, looking away. No attempt to hide his irritation.

The response of his new friend made Ran's face turn red and homophobia kicked in. "A-ABSOLUTELY NOT!" He state in a rather loud growl, then catching glimpse at the people staring, he'd shirk. "I mean... I'm not into men, sorry." His rather large hand would move to the back of his own neck to rub it nervously. A sort of paranoid glint in his eyes and a shit of his body in his seat. One leg kicked up over his knee. A sort of crossed leg position. His eyes closed and he took a deep breath. "I mean.. I could probably find you-" A foreign line upon his ears and movement.

A bit of lurch forward and the man was half in Ran's lap. Well almost anyways. Ran stared wide-eyed with a gasp from his lips. "W-WHOA!" Ran shouted and recoiled a bit. Whoopsies... Ran sort of just stared with a red face. "B-be more careful! Clumsy man.." Ran stated hesitant as he looked around and then gripped his new friend. With a pull, he would pull the man to his feet. "Here. I'll.. help you.. to the bathroom I guess.."

[Theo Chulainn]

He chuckled with a slight wet sounding hiccup and breath as Ran helped him stand. "Sorry....I normally don't get like this..." He Stumbled along with him as the room tilted like a strange house of fun from the fair ground. "Being on the run.....causes the lack of the thing....called eating..." He stumbled against him his nose bumping into the side of the man helping him sending a waft of the man's scent into his senses. Soft like a mixture of flowers and summer rain. Theo took a sneaky inhale allowing more of the fragrance to infiltrate his senses. This man smelt so nice. He couldn't help but wonder if he even smelt pleasant to the painfully straight man. Most likely of cheap motel/hotel complementary shampoo and soap, then mixed with the sharp smell of whiskey and beer and the stale scent of cigarette smoke.

Stumbling to the bathroom he tumbled slightly from the other and soloed it to the stall. Shutting the door lazily behind him not caring enough to lock it or check if it was even fully shut. Heck if the man who aided him had wanted to take a peek at creigian ass on offer to him, let him. Clumsy hands after several failed attempts managed to unclasp the button before tackling the zipper. To his horror it jammed and a string of swear words tumbled from his lip. Soon he became a master of the 'I really need to pee a d my trousers are plotting to make me piss myself.' dance.

zuurrrrpppp

Much to his relief the zipper caved and he was liberated. Not caring he shoved the faded jeans and black boxers down to relieve himself.

insert the lovely needs of peeing

Stumbling out with a grin and chuckle he quickly washed his hands. After all his new buddy was so homophobic he most likely was scared or his own penis and would most likely dislike being touched by a hand that had fondled one barely minuets before. Rubbing them dry on his totally awesome and no way ugly Hawaiian shirt and turned to the man. "So guess we skipped the formalities. I'm....." He stopped for a moment remembering the words of Charley as she dumped him from the boat into Creta. Do not identify yourself...

His face turned grim for a moment. Wondering if she was ok let alone alive. He smiled thinking himself clever for a moment. "The names Alastair....Alastair Brennan." HA Alastair and Fiarcha, if they were hunting for him. This man would simply lead them to themselves if they asked him. Looking to the attractive homophobe he smiled. "Well now that my bladder is empty. I can continue drinking!"

[Guest]

Oh god. this man had to pee and yet he couldn't walk. Ran half balanced, halfdragged his new friend to the bathroom. This moment screamed gay in his head, thus Ra was really red in the face. Aaa this wasn't right. Why was he in this situation anyways? it wasn't fair. he wasn't gay! yet here he was sorta hugging a man while helping to take a pee. this wasn't even a friend of his, this was a stranger. Oh the red on Ran's face could only be surpassed by a ripe tomato.

The feel of the man's breath gave Ran a bit of a twitch and he would sigh outwards a bit. The usual scent of mint clung to his breath. A mingled tobacco and mint mix was an odd one that Ran found he enjoyed when it wasn't his own breath. After all, sniffing his own breath while lifting a man to the bathroom was rather odd.

They had reached the bathroom and the man hadn't even bvothered to close the door. For some reason Ran felt the need to stand outside the door with his arms crossed. Closing his eyes, he would sigh and simply wait for him to get done. It took a few minutes and Ran was concerned for a few minutes that he might have to help the man.

Just as he was about to turn, he could hear the sound of pee and the awkwardness stepped up. Ran turned to check and make sure the man and quickly turned back, a bit red. He didn't want to risk seeing something he (didn't) want to see? Did he want to see? O-OF COURSE NOT! He wasn't some homo. That was gross! Or that was his opinion.

The man came out and basically announced going pee then introduced himself. Ran acknowledged the fact he had washed his hands and greeted that with a.. sort of smile. He didn't smile at men, that was just odd when he barely knew them. A must not in the situation. A name as an introduction and Ran seemed to shrug it off. Well now that the gay moment seemed to have passed. His eyes looked at the man with a rather bored expression and he shrugged, A drink with the stranger? Why not. He was just drunk and depressed right? not gay..? The earlier comment was a joke. Ran had no worries.

"Akiyama, Ran. So let's get drinking then." Ran said in his baritone as he walked back to the bar before stopping and looking at Alastair. "Do you need help?" He sure hoped not.

[Theo Chulainn]

He laughed and smiled. "Akiyama...Ran...nice name...Aerugese then?" He cocked his head slightly letting the soft chime of his brother's earrings sooth him. With a smile and a slight stumble he headed to the bar. "I can manage." He chirped hiding his depression with the buzz of alcohol and the rather attractive company. Shame it was not to be.... he would love to have Ran under him while he sucks his neck fingers gliding along what he hoped would be a smooth muscled stomach while he ....okay he better stop there before there would be a awkward bulge in his pants to explain.

Flopping down onto the stool at the bar which he had previously occupied spying a fresh whiskey waiting for him. Licking his lips he leant back and smiled to Ran. "So Ran....tell me why your here in central...." He purr slightly over the glass as he licked the rim slightly taking a teasing taste of the whiskey. "Also what do you want to drink?" Leaning forward taking a look in the others eyes. "Now I know you look like a Sake man...and being Aerugese it's a given but...I doubt they have any here so...Let's get you a whiskey!!" He cheered ordering the man a whiskey. Chuckling he grinned. "This is the decent stuff too."

[Guest]

Ran eyed his new friend. The two having reached the seats, would park into a stool each. Ran would arch his brow a bit and grin a bit of a cheesy grin. Well he felt flattered. Nice name.. obviously Aerugese? Ran puffed out his chest a bit, some of his kimono slid down, showing a bit more glimpse of his chest. Those almost feminine eyes closed he let out a soft 'heh' sound showing he was pleased with the offer of a compliment. Ran was pretty damn good looking, so he felt less awkward about a man somewhat coming onto him. Even if it wasn't real, it was flattering.

The look on his face was that usual cocky look. A grin and a sort of nod. Yeah, he was cool, he was awesome. The questions deserved answers. Naturally Alastair was correct about him being a sake man. Ran loved his Sake, most of the time it was the only alcohol he drank, but he was up for new things. "Hmm I'm on vaca-..tion.." His mind seemed to sputter a bit. Those crimson orbs watching as Alastair ran his tongue along the rim of his drink. "Whiskey.. is fine.." He mumbled with a shade of red on his cheeks.

What was with him? Why was he actually.. blushing? This wasn't right. Yet that action had been so... Ran cleared his throat and took the whiskey he was handed. Tilting it to his mouth, he'd take a few quick gulps and slammed the glass on the counter. His other hand moved to wipe his lips as he looked away and tried to erase that..awkward feeling. "Not bad.. I'll admit."

[Theo Chulainn]

He smiled as the other downed the drink and slammed down the glass. Theo licked any drops free from his own lips before smirking. "Well that's good...now you can buy your own glass." He laughed before knocking back the rest of his drink. The liquid giving a pleasant burn as it went down.

He smirked as Ran clearly was avoiding his stare. With as purr he leant forward. "Oh....What this?" He gently poked his cheek which was flushed letting his finger brush it softly. Damn...he was drunk as anything....He slowly trailed his finger along the scar on the man's nose before removing his hand. A new whiskey in front of him he picked that up to occupy his hands. He really didn't need a sexual harassment charge to reveal where he was. Cause seriously if his drunk pervy hands got him caught and sent to a execution that he didn't deserve....that would really be embarrassing.

[Guest]

Buy his own glass? What? Ran was already drunk. A lightweight indeed as the buzz flickered over his mind. His brain was a bit clouded as he simply pulled into a smile. Ran was happy when drunk, not an ass. He was a lovable, happy guy who rarely frowned while he drank. The (bartender)man poured him another and Ran gratefully thanked him for his services before daring more into his system. Slowly, he began to feel more relaxed. A content sort of excitement flooded his veins and he would nearly jump for joy, but he felt so relaxed.

A sort of sweet voice hit his ears like that of an angel's. What was that? Ran had turned his head to look upon Theo once again with eyes less cruel and more.. accepting. The feel of the finger tracing his cheek, the scar over his nose. Ran had a moment of chills as he could feel that sensation of touch on skin rarely reached. It was an odd moment and yet he liked it. With eyes closed, he would sigh a bit staggered and cough to clear his throat. "Hm? Oh the scar? I was mauled by a bear when I was younger." His voice laughed softly as he would continue in a bit of a playful way. "Would you like to see where else I have scars?" Oh yes.. bad pick-up lines. One of Ran's specialties was to use really bad pick-up lines.

Laughing softly, he'd wink, though it was difficult to see with his hair in the way of one eye. A soft laugh and he'd throw back his head with a content sigh. "Damn it's hot in this joint. You come here often, Alastair?" He would ask, obviously more relaxed than he had been. His left hand rested on the glass of whiskey while his right one would push through his bangs a bit. For a moment a brief glimpse of the tattoo would show before the black layers covered that eye again. A red was on his cheek from the judgement blocking liquor, but it seemed in this state of mind he didn't really care he was flirting.. with a man..

[Theo Chulainn]

"Hm? Oh the scar? I was mauled by a bear when I was younger." Okay that was a little impressive. He couldn't help but give a soft look of wonderment to the other before the man's eyes took on a luscious playful shine. "Would you like to see where else I have scars?" Hold the phone Steven! This homophobic straight man just came onto him. Okay maybe he could get laid. Leaning back against the bar whiskey in hand and lighting a cigarette. Yes he was a smoker. Before he would maybe have one or two when drinking with friends and the same when fishing. But now due to the stress and heart break he seemed to be smoking more and more. God Gavin would be scolding him so hard if he knew.

Rolling the stick over his lips and taking it between his fingers to blow out a stream of silver smoke he looked to the other. He smirked as he saw the other wink. "Damn it's hot in this joint. You come here often, Alastair?" He shook his head. "No...I'm just passing through." He reached forward and pushed the bangs back for the other. His thumb tracing the tattoo. "Curious and Curiouser...." He purred his blood red eye's inspecting the ink stained skin.

[Guest]

The sight of the other man smoking seemed to strike a need in Ran as well. Taking out his own pack, he'd place a stick to his lips and flick open his lighter. The flint ignited and his smoke would be lit. The scent of mint permeated the air. A beautiful flavor on his lips as he inhaled the nicotine and released the discarded smoke. His eyes half close while he rested his head more into the the touch. "Hmm?" His eyes looked interested with an amused look. "What's curios-er?" He was intrigued by this sentence. His eyes simply savoring the look of this man. Was he getting more attractive by the minute? Ran seemed to think so.

That sound he made gave him chills. One hand moved to take the cigarette from his lips and acted on instinct or alcohol. His other hand taking away Alastair's cigarette before he nuzzled his lips against his new friends before simply completing his task. The lips would touch before he pulled back and almost giggled. His hand covering his mouth as he mused a bit. A purr from his lips while he simply enjoyed the taste of the other cigarette mixing with his own. He licked his lips and simply smiled contently. He spoke not another word.

[Theo Chulainn]

He was just about to take another drag when the other grabbed his hand taking it away. Brows furrowed as he was about to shout at the other but then the cuter male leant close nuzzling against him before kissing him. It was brief and the mingle of whiskey, smoke and peppermint was almost a shot of pure ecstasy to him. He swore he could of gotten high off the tingle alone. The other seemed highly amused as Theo stared in shock. Brows almost hitting his hairline crimson eyes wide. Had this stranger just kissed him? And why on earth did he want more?

His confidence flowed back to him. Hot damn....he must be so sexy even the painfully straight people wanted in his pants. Well...he wasn't one to disappoint. As a smug look melted onto his face with a natural ease he stood from his stool invading the other space. Placing warm hands on his cheeks he tilted the others head up and placed his lips to his in a deep kiss. Softly massaging his to the others to encourage him to yield and let him in. Warm tongue dipping into the slight gap almost inviting the other to play.

[Guest]

The shock look was most amusing on the man's face. He seemed utterly startled by the fact Ran had kissed him. The flavor still held on Ran's lips. It seemed Ran had more confidence while drunk. His eyes closed a moment while he would inhale his own minty cigarette. The nicotine flowing through his body. A joyous feeling pulsing through his body.

A movement caught Ran's eyes and his body turned. A surprised look upon his face when the man he'd just kissed moved towards him. Standing up and leaning in towards Ran. The red-eyed man watched while his new friend would move his hands up to trace the Aerugese man's cheeks before pulling him into a deep kiss. Shocked, Ran would stare on. This time his eyes wide as saucers while the blue-haired beauty moved his lips against Ran's.

It took a moment for him to register what was happening. This hot man was kissing him! The feel of his smooth lips rubbing and massaging along Ran's lips. The damp movement of his tongue made Ran sigh softly, his lips parting further and permitting entrance. The tongue of Ran's moved to play with Alastair's. Ran's hands moved on their own, resting on his friend's waist and tugging him closer, sort of pulling him into his lap, but his legs were spread to either side. Gently he moaned, eyes closed while he returned the affections of his new friend.

[Theo Chulainn]

The other moaned clutching to his body as he stood between the others legs. Tilting the other's head up to deepen the kiss into a full make out session. Hot breaths as tongues tangled and moans were shared between them. Only pausing for air and the rough cough of the bar man had Theo parting from the other for a brief moment.

Roughly pulling his wallet out and paying the tabs. He proceeded to drag the beautiful Aerugese man out the bar. His Motel was not far but it didn't stop him pinning the other against wall of some dark shop that was closed for the night as his mouth latched to the other's throat hands skimming over skin mapping it for later. After a few minuets moving from the spot to proceed to the Motel.

Entering the room he was glad he got a double bed. A suit case sat against the wardrobe with a silver briefcase sat beside it. Propped against the wall by the bed a long item in a canvass bag sat. "Well this is home...." He mumbled looking to the other to see if the man would chose now to back out of this.

[Guest]

Shaky breaths, grasping hands. Oh the heat created as Ran was just short of grinding against this man he was making out with. Delicious temptation from the sugar of the wine. It wasn't anything he thought different of, just what he repressed. He didn't believe he had a liking towards men in his mind. His hands half groping Theo's ass where all could see. His lips desperately dancing with Theo's and tongues playing tag almost. His breathing became a bit sporadic from the moment, but as the bartender coughed, both would find their attention brought back.

A bit of a dazed expression left Ran staring blankly at the bar-man. It seemed he was expecting something? Surely not to join in! That was revolting and Ran would not have some man invading on his time with this beautiful man. His mouth pulled into a soft smile as the tab was paid and his hand was grasped, yanking him out of the chair. He was soon being led upon the floor and outside of the building.

Cold air hit like a brick wall and Ran almost let off a shiver, but he controlled himself. Where was he going? He wasn't sure yet. The hand that led him was warm and comforting. He rather liked the feel of those large hands pulling him. Then they reached an abandoned shop where Ran felt his body shoved up against a wall. His voice letting out a soft shout before a shaky moan. Those lips on his neck, the fingers dancing on his skin. The logic to resist such public displays was over-ruled by his temptation.

A heated desire left his voice while Alastair led him to an apartment. Stepping it it would look a bit shabby, but Ran didn't care anymore. His feet moved swiftly to shut the door behind them and his body moving to push Alastair up to the wall. Hands running up his shirt as his mouth would return the favor. "You're too sweet, inviting me over." He would state in a lustful tone as his mouth bit gently at his friend's neck and then trailed soft kisses up to his lips.

[Theo Chulainn]

"You're too sweet, inviting me over." He purred pulling Ran flush to him as there lip's moulded together. His hands slowly playing with the others clothing almost teasing him before finally stripping him. Walking him back to the bed he pushed him down before crawling on top of him. A cheeky smirk played on those lips while lust clouded the eyes. "Well I couldn't exactly fuck you in the middle of the bar now could I?" He teased kissing the other again grinding there bodies together.

Slowly stripping them of the boundary of clothing. It was odd doing this with a complete stranger....But the buzz of beer and whiskey flooded his mind. Stress and pain from the last few days and now his hormones were burning him. He wanted a connection to the earth....to something....to someone. And Ran....Ran seemed to want him too... He needed to feel needed. Teasing the soft flesh listening to the sounds Ran made he couldn't help but feel that need....

(And then fuck happen)

Ah...he felt good....the kind of good where he was totally justified to have a cigarette. But right now he was more happy with the spooning and nuzzling of the naked man in his arms. How adorable was he? VERY! Nuzzling softly and placing a kiss to his forehead he smiled in a afterglow high. Drifting slightly he hoped nothing would ruin this lovely peaceful moment.

[Guest]

Ran felt content. His body light as he could taste the feeling of pleasure still shake through his body. His eyes closed as his face buried into Alastair's neck. His breathing taking in the scent of sweat and sex in the air. His chest pressed to Alastair's with his body curled up to him. Neither had bothered to get dressed and now they just laid in his bed. The sheets half covering his feet as Ran's hair had fallen out of the ponytail and lay in an array behind his head. The black tresses out of the way and now showing more of the tattooed half of his face. The red eyes closed while he clung gently to this man.

Sudden realization hit him and his eyes opened to look at the man. He'd just had sex with a man. Wasn't Ran straight? The worry started to shower him and Ran would still feel a buzz of alcohol in his head. What had happened, had happened. Most likely it was a one night throw anyways. Though he ad to admit that this man was rather attractive even as he was sobering up. Red orbs upon red orbs, as his eyes simply observed the man before him. His face looked happier now. Maybe a good lay was what he needed.

Ran felt a tinge of joy hit him. AT least he had helped, though it was in the oddest of manners. The lips were pressed to his head and warmth filled his body. Ran sighed softly and scoot up in the bed. If this meant nothing then why did he..? His lips pressed to Alastair's in a soft and gentle way, a bit of fatigue in his actions from the exercise. A hand reached up and gently stroked his cheek. Ran was enjoying the cuddling as it was something he didn't usually get. His body pressed close while he closed his eyes and simply dozed as well.

[Theo Chulainn]

Come morning Theo stirred slightly arms wrapped round Ran holding the other close to him. Smiling he nuzzled the other slightly placing kisses to the others neck through the soft raven hair. Taking in the soft scent of flowers, sweat and sex. Quiet a smell he liked. His fingers brushed the sensitive skin of the man's stomache as he nuzzled his nose into the flesh of the man's ear.

"Good morning Sunshine...." He whispered softly hugging the other closer to him. Hmm he wondered if the other would be interested in a morning tumble under the bed sheets. Letting his fingers draw lazy circles on the mans stomache. He gave a soft murmur into the man's ear. "Tell me you don't have to leave yet....." He nuzzled once more smiling as he noticed how perfect they fitted together. The man curled in his arms was rather adorable when he slept like this. "I was thinking about some morning fun...." He teased nipping his ear playfully.

[Guest]

Ran's eyes shot open. the nuzzling of his neck.. the circles. Oh God he had... hadn't he? This was the same way women acted on occasion when they wanted more.. but that voice, the feel of the body. This was very much a man. A man whom was cuddling Ran and pressing his nose into the man's neck. The gentle tickle cascading down his spine and taking over his whole body. This was unnatural! The man tensed and Ran's face continued staring with red hue on his cheeks. His voice seemed to pant heavily with worry. Oh this was not good.. not good at all. The panic striking his every nerve, the way his body would want more but the wrongness of it all. This was wrong. This was immoral.

Ran would give a nervous laugh before saying. "Sorry bud.. I'm not gay." You just slept with a man... DON'T CARE NOT GAY. NOT GAY NOT GAY! As much as he tried to convince himself it wasn't working. The circles on his stomach.. the nibbling at his ear. This man wanted him to stay That was a laugh. Ran shot up from the bed and half tripped out of the covers. His mind and face both focused in trying to be real. He was straight! He was the straightest man ever... right? There were no others to even compare and yet.. he sounded like a very sexually aroused and tense man. His eyes upon Alastair like a terrified deer in the headlights.

[Theo Chulainn]

"Sorry bud.. I'm not gay." Theo let the other go with a sigh. "Clearly your very deep in that little closet of yours.." He said leaning back giving the other space to have his panic attack. It was a shame...he liked Ran. Not as much as Drai of course...there would always be a piece of his heart that would belong to the lancer and be Drai's alone. He sat up and evacuated the bed not caring he was walking butt naked in front of the man who was currently having a crisis. Grabbing a towel and some boxers he stretched popping his joints.

"You wanted it last night. Quite a lot might I add so I don't care if your going back to your denial now but just don't go screaming rape.....You kissed me first." He really didn't need to be chased for sexual assault after all. "I'm having a shower. Your free to leave or wait and have one afterwords." With that he stepped into the bathroom and soon the sounds of flowing water from the jets would be heard.

[Guest]

"Clearly your very deep in that little closet of yours.."

Th-The HELL was that supposed to mean?! Ran wasn't in a closet! He was sitting in a room, not hidden awa-wait. His eyes widen and the red on his face was darker. H-he was implying Ran was..? Oh God NO. NO! I'm not in the closet. I'm not! I was just really drunk. JUST DRUNK. He repeated over and over as if that would work and yet.. somewhere inside of himself he felt the empty hole of something edging him towards the truth. Lying to himself wasn't going to work.. was it?

"You wanted it last night. Quite a lot might I add so I don't care if your going back to your denial now but just don't go screaming rape.....You kissed me first."

Ran blushed deeper, a gorgeous red that matched his eyes. Those orbs were wide and almost shy as he stared at the man whom didn't have a care walking around naked. Of Course, Ran was naked too, wasn't he? Upon further inspection he realized... yes.. yes he was. He went to cover himself, but the man was already gone into the bathroom. The soft his of the shower was in his head. A sad sort of look on Ran's face. How long had he been denying this about himself? His crimson eyes dipped and he felt a pang of pride being snuffed out. He wasn't gay! He wasn't gay! He was never wrong and yet either way his pride was hurt.

On one hand he could just walk out of the room, out of the house and out of this man's life. On another hand, Ran could look into this lifestyle. He never had much luck in keeping a girlfriend and it wasn't like doing things with a male was TOO foreign to him. He DID get drunk and make out with makes all the time or so Kaede had said. He didn't believe it at first, but it seemed now the proof was irrefutable. Hesitantly he would raise to his feet and he rubbed the back of his neck. What to do now? He had two options... or rather.. three.

His body moved on its own while he found his way into the bathroom. Initiate dick mode. His face looked rather mad and yet he was more of just putting up a facade. Despite the awkwardness, he snuck up upon Alastair and slipped into the shower. His arms looping around Alastair's waist while he nuzzled his face into the shoulder of the man, from behind. His eyes looking up with a sort of devilish glint. "Alright. Don't tell anyone about this and I can stay a little longer." Though it was not as obvious as earlier, his face held a slight blush. He wanted to stay with this man.. for some reason. he needed to feel wanted and needed. There was something about this man that just interested Ran.

He hoped his plan would work well. A sort of puppy-dog smile on his face afterwards. He didn't know what the man would think after the freak out Ran had JUST had that he was already over. It was okay to be himself with this man. He didn't need to impress Alastair it seemed. For some reason.. Ran liked that. Though it confused him, he wasn't going to mentally fight about it.. for now.

The blush Ran had as he had his minor panic was rather cute but this was something Theo couldn't push. He himself being half in Ran's spot....though his didn't involve with waking up with a sexy naked man....no his was horrifying dreams and awkward morning wood to deal with. Instead of dreaming of naked actresses and singers his was naked actors and his best friend.....yeah that was fun.

Leaving Ran to his internal outing. He removed his earrings feeling a bit empty without them and his hair clip. Letting the long blue hair which was thicker at the top then the bottom. Stepping into the hot water he let the water and steam rinse of the smell of stale smoke alcohol and sex. Slowly refreshing him ready for the new day. Where should he move to now? He couldn't stay there really... He was sure Alistair, Fiachra or worse Artemis was on his tail.

As the arm's wrapped round him he couldn't help but jump. Muscles tensing and flexing as he was about to turn to pin the cheeky bastard trying to capture him here. But as he whipped his head round his blood red eyes met Ran's crimson ones and he relaxed eyebrow raising. "Alright. Don't tell anyone about this and I can stay a little longer." He smiled softly and turned. "So...come out of Narnia?" He teased softly.

The body of the man tensed and Ran was a bit startled. For a minute he thought he was about to get thrown, however it passed. His night affair looked at him with wide and thoroughly confused eyes a moment before they passed and it seemed he was amused. His hands moved swiftly to rest on the man's pecs while he, himself stole a soft kiss. His hair was of course still back and slightly to the side; the ponytail a mess but there. A tattoo tattooed from his eye down to his knee on his right side and the various scars that littered his body made him look like an ornament. A walking decorated man. A human picture that was painted by the brash cuts of a human blade and the claws of animals.

That kiss made it all worth it. A wave of energy flowed through Ran, though he wasn't sure why. However it WAS the most heart stealing kiss he'd had in a long while. A beautiful taste fulled his mouth as he breathed a bit heavy from the steam covering the atmosphere. Out of Narnia.. what a cruel joke. Well Ran was a closet case. Either way, for this man, he could say he'd stay out of the closet for a little while. "Sure. I suppose a little while couldn't hurt."

Slowly his hair tie was pulled out of place, his black hair drenched too. The bangs that were plastered to his face, oddly gave a better view of his red eyes while he bit down softly on Alastair's shoulder. "Haha. I suppose I should let you shower in peace now, huh?" A flirty tint covered his eyes as he checked for Alastair's response.

Theo's hand's cupped the man's face brushing back the drenched hair taking in everything. Red eye's a few shades darker then his own maybe. The beautiful scar that ran across the man's skin. The inked lines. He wondered what the man taught of his own complexed knitted lines of ink that ran along his back. He shuddered when he realised that his clan wanted to strip the skin from his back but now was not the time to think about that. Ran...Ran wanted him some more.

"Haha. I suppose I should let you shower in peace now, huh?" Ah no!! "No stay!" He panicked grabbing the other and pulling him close connecting there lips and bodies now flushed together. His heart clenched thinking he almost let this beautiful man go. Silly Theo...your on the run...he doesn’t even know your name.... He felt a tear slip down his face as he realised this would be the last he would see of Ran. But then it angered him. Pressing the other to the cold towels as the water powered down onto his back. Long hair falling round his face as he panted in a few breaths. Before he latched his mouth to the other's neck fingers running over Ran's body. Claiming spots for a brief moment. Sure after this they would both part ways and never see each other again but for now he wanted to claim Ran as his...and his alone.
