The Elder coon held the door open, letting Val walk inside with his brother. He sighed and lounged in the doorway. "It is good that you are so good vith children.." He smiled weakly and moved in othe eroom, helping the angel tuck the younger coon under the covers. "He vill sleep like a log now...I hope..."

Val smiled down at Ramos for a moment or two as the child slept. "Oh? Why is that? You two seemed to get along well enough...for brothers," the angel grinned. He turned away from the bed and headed for the door.

Vlad smiled and watched the other head for the door. He then moved away from his brother, after giving the child a kiss on the head. He closed the bedroom door behind him and walked ino the hall with Val. "It's a blessing...because Ramos likes you...and...I like you...I do not have to guard my feelings around my brother now." He chuckled and leaned against the hallway wall. "It makes things all the more simple"

Val nodded. For the sake of harmony. "I understand," he said quietly with a smile, then paused and turned when he heard the coon lean against the wall.

Vlad looked at Val with question in his eyes. The other had been leaving the hallaway, why did he stop? Vlad shrugged it off and sighed. "Is there something bothering you Val?" For some reason the coon was feelings nervous, edgy. Perhaps it was just a slight bout of paranoia kicking in, who knew? "You've...vithdrawn again..." He extended a hand to his angel, hoping he would take it.

The angel debated whether to ask Vlad why he had stopped here in the hallway, when the question was asked of him. The coon was so damned perceptive, but there was nothing but concern in him. Worry. Nervousness? Now Valentino wanted to ask if he was all right. His own doubts and worries always hovered in the back of his mind, ready to swallow him up...but Vladmir had his own to deal with. But it made him smile to simply think that they were here, right now, and nothing bad was happening. Two lost souls catching up on old times before the current washed them away again.
Smiling warmly at Vlad, he took the offered hand, kissing gently between the knuckles. "I'm sorry, it's just the same old things. I can't help it, just push it away." He raised Vlad's hand and kissed the palm then rubbed his cheek against it.

Vlad pulled the angel towards him, wanting Val as close as possible in the small hallway. He did not like the fact that even now the angel was troubled with his past, he wanted to wash those thoughts away from him, give him peace, but the coon knew that would never happen. You cannot erase the past, no matter how much you want it to be. He pulled Val into his arms and held him close. He tipped the angel's chin up, lightly kissing his lips. "Val...just one night...don't think...and forget the past." He let out a soft sigh, his crimson eyes never wavering from the image of his angel.

Val stared up at Vlad for a few seconds, awash with too many emotions that he had been ready to abandon completely earlier today. Right now he wanted to say yes more than anything, but upon leaving would find the real world crashing down on him. "I want to...I can't..." And yet, what had they been doing earlier? What if Ramos had not come in when he had?
Ramos. He realized then what his mind had been circling around for so long, and what subconsciously he had been battling with. Nyoko had been too busy trying to be the adult for Val for him to admit to himself that Ny was still just too young.
"I..." He glanced away, not wanting to see the look on Vlad's face. "Nyoko... we have been seeing eachother, but haven't been out dating, 'yet'..." He paused, looking for words at such an awkward moment. "This morning, I told him about my past, I wanted him to know before we started to get serious. And though he held up well, blustered around and made promises... I just knew..." He stopped, then swallowed as if his throat were sore and nodded, finally looking up at Vlad. "I left, told him to think about us for a while, but I know it won't work out. He's too young...thinking of Ramos I realize I love him more like a brother than a lover. How would he understand?"

The coon listened as the angel opened up to him. He listened as he spoke of another lover, a younger lover and sighed. second place. It was when the other spoke of loving as a brother that the coon's mood slightly improved. Selfish thoughts, but what else was there to think? The coon had had so little for himself, and now he knew what he wanted. He would have it, he wanted it so much.
"Young shildren, are filled vith selfish desires. They see vhat they vant and they vill not let it go. If this boy, this, Nyoko vants you for himself, he vill do anything to keep you, even lie to himself to keep you." He sighed. "I do not think he vill understand..." he ran his fingers through that silken hair, his eyes closing, his mind spinning around thoughts and dreams of that hair and the man it belonged to.
He opened his eyes, lightly kissing Val's forehead. "Valentino...you and I are cut from the same cloth...I vill be here for your vhenever you need me, and I swear there there vill never be another that vill take your place." He smiled, his features softening. "Love...is a funny thing...and I have vaited so very long to find it. I just, never thought I vould fall so fast." He lightly kissed the angel again, his arms releasing him soon after. "Stay the night...let me have the dream for just that short time."

Val nodded, a troubled frown creasing his brow as the coon ran a clawed hand through his hair. He leaned into it, kissing Vlad's hand as it passed by his cheek. Wanting so badly to be touched by the coon, when released instead of stepping back he pressed his body along Vlad's and wrapped his arms around Vlad, wings around them both, and laying his cheek on the coon's shoulder. "I know things will be rocky yet with Ny... I still feel protective of him, but I don't know if he will be open to what I truly feel. He may be too obsessed." He looked up at Vlad, hugging him tighter. "I think...that you are the one...but I don't want to mislead you."

The coon had expected the other to leave him, expected him to at least back away. When the angel came back to him, their bodies so close, he sighed. His heart was in his throat as he felt the other kiss his clawed hand. He closed his eyes and let the warmth of the feathers surround him. "I do not care about that child...he vill do vhat he vill do." He smiled and continued to caress that silen hair. "Lead me on all you wish, my angel...at least until the truth comes crashing home I vill be blissfully happy." The coon's hand reached under Val's chin, lifting his head off his shoulder only so the coon could capture those lips with his own.

The angel returned Vlad's kiss with more abandon than he intended. His eyes had slid shut until jolted open again as he found them up against the wall. He had not intended to push them into the wall... He pulled away just enough to smile faintly and murmur, "Sorry..." not that he could pull away now since at least two of his wings and his metal arm were pinned to the wall behind Vlad. He kissed the coon's lips briefly and said, "I only wanted to spare the both of you pain... I care for you both, differently, but things could get ugly."

The coon gasped as they hit the wall behind them. He heart was pounding, the kiss far more than he had hoped for. his opened his heavy, crimson eyes and looked at the angel in his arms. " 'could' is a very...improbable thing..." He kissed the other again, his heart in his throat. "I will deal with ugliness of it comes...for now...what I see...is beautiful..." He ran his fingers along Val's cheek, his head snaking down to nuzzle ino the angel's neck.
In the back of his mind, the coon thought of his brother. They were right outside his room, should he wake up, the mood would be ruined, but to hell with that, thoughts were pointless right now.

"I know... I..." He wanted to apologize again but the coon kissed him again and coherent thoughts were becoming more difficult. "I'm not..." Val arched his neck back and gasped as Vlad nuzzled him. Damn it all. Wait, where was Ramos' room? A glance back confirmed that they were still right outside. With a quick motion Val spun them around; he may have found himself up against the wall, but now both arms were free and all of his wings were no longer pinned behind the coon. "Vladmir... your brother." He reached up to touch the coon's face and kissed him again, he couldn't help it. "Where." Honestly...he did not care where. The floor, the couch, a tree, the kitchen, just...not in front of Ramos.

The coon let out a soft sigh as they were moved and Val mentioned his brother. He cuddled int othe others body, his mind having to take some extra time to focus before softly whispering, "Living room...." He kissed the other's neck lightly before forcing his body to agree with his mind and push away enough for them to move. His legs were weak and it was hard to stand on his own, but he managed. He pulled Val forward, forcing the angel to move with him, he did n't want to be out of his arms any longer than truely need be.
