Welcome to Gaia! ::

"You feel for him."

A'Hallei's voice quieted, his head bowing. Thoughts swirled around in his mind, hidden by the curtain of white hair. But-- Makenna hadn't resisted him when he pressed earlier, so it had to count for something. The heat flushed though his system again, and he stared up at the teen on the bed. The younger boy whos hand he still held to his chest.

Without warning A'Hallei pounced. He pressed Makenna to the bed beneath the two of them, stretching his long body along his love's form, strong and sinewy. 'Mine.' his mind growled. Makenna was his first, and he was ready to stake his claim again before he got any ideas. His hair fell like a white sheet over the two of them, long strands caressing exposed skin, mirroring what white hands wished to do. The thin silken shift did little to provide resistance between the two of them, his body solid and very real underneath it. Bared teeth grazed against the smooth skin of his neck again, his cool breath whispering along close to Makenna's ear.
"A'Hallei can treat you well. Will you let him?"

The fire from Makenna consumed him and now he had no excuses to call it off. Makenna was old enough to make his own decisions, he had no reason to put a stop to what he was about to do-- and nothing-- save Makenna's own word would quell the fires igniting his heart. Sitting up, A'Hallei peeled his teal shift up and over his head, leaving the white youth nude before Makenna, in all his scarred and flawed glory.

Bending down, those same hands indulged in the fantasy played over and over again within the mind of the pale youth, unbuckling belts, pulling clothes free of that tan body, exposing the red stripe as it traveled unhindered across his form. And his teeth clamped once over that stripe, drawing the first tang of blood, hard enough to leave tiny tooth scars, a permanant claim on Makenna's body. He was all emotion-- the fog chased away by the act he proceeded to complete with Makenna.

As it turned out, A'Hallei was a very dutiful lover, almost timid with the fear of hurting his beloved, and always ensuring he took the proper steps to blow Makenna's mind, to keep him a mewling gasping creature in his arms. It was also a miracle they did not break the beds before the deed was through.
It was hours later, with the sun nigh on setting that A'Hallei finally finished and collapsed beside Makenna from sheer exhaustion.

A'Hallei pressed gentle kisses to Makenna's forehead, reaching up to comb his fingers through the wild black hair. How had he ever lived without knowing such bliss? His entire body hummed with warmpth and happiness, of the likes he had never known before. Forget that Makenna had left, forget the wild delusions, forget blue hair and forget the new house. Right now it was just the two of them, united at last.

It was a long while before he spoke again, niggling worries pushing to the forefront. His voice was slightly raspy--for obvious reasons.
"Makenna...You don't have to stay here, I can come to you. Living with me does not have to mean inprisonment or sacrifice."

He blinked, wondering where on earth the eloquence had emerged from.

"Do you doubt me?" He asked, looking right into Makenna's dark eyes. It was a very serious question, as it meant the level of trust and confidence Makenna held in his abilities or his promises. He stilled the hand wandering through Makenna's locks, still close enough to let their breaths mingle. He refrained from using his abilities to touch his love's mind again. Makenna did have a lot he needed to decide, and to weigh what was important to him. A'Hallei just wanted him to know he wasn't about to try to keep flighty Makenna captive, if it meant possibly losing him, A'Hallei was willing to put aside his distaste of public areas-- a major thing for him.

Perhaps he might even end up meeting blue hair. His hands tightened slightly, and he quickly moved to free them so he would not pull those dark locks. How on earth had they ended up together? Isolation and affection, madness and sanity, ice and fire, ghost and life?

Opposites attract?

He knew. He knew from the point that Makenna did not return two days after he had left that something was different. It started with the school-- dinner at the restauraunt-- A'Hallei's life was changing too. He was leaving into public spaces of his own volition more and more often. A'Hallei leaned in and rubbed his forehead against Makenna's. He just hoped he wouldn't do anything to jeopardize their relationship, and there were many more oppourtunities to do that with others around-- either to trigger his episodes or to bear witness to his deeds. None of his crimes, save one were premeditated. A'Hallei was defending Makenna, when he was getting bullied at class, but the others were just victims of their own ignorance.
What a shame so few others felt the implications of their stupidity.

"...Never told me you had recitals...I would have come to see." A'Hallei said quietly into the pillow, hand caressing where Makenna had once been. He would have loved to see Makenna dance, the form he adored lost in the beauty and emotion of motion. Sensual movement, the faculties of the body explored and adored with others. There might not have been much to his life outside of Makenna, but he was rapidly finding out it was the opposite of his love. He was going to get a job at a club, had fallen for another, was taking dance lessons and had recitals. Again, A'Hallei had to stamp down the wave of negativity that threatened to tip him off the concious edge.

He sat up with Makenna and tangled his arms around the slender teen, enjoying a last momentary cuddle.

To be honest, A'Hallei was only fond of Samsara in childhood. It severed when his twin threatened Makenna's life-- though there was still a very strong tie between the two of them that prevented A'Hallei from ever completely forgetting Samsara. Still, something about his union with Makenna made him wonder a newer concern.
"Has Makenna done this before? With Blue hair?" He asked suddenly, the bridge of his nose against Makenna's shoulder. He had to know.
