"All right," Val murmured huskily, leaning into the kiss. Vlad need not have worried about losing contact with the angel, who had an arm and a wing around his back partly for the physical contact and partly for stability. Though who was keeping whom up could be called into question.

They both made their way to the living room, each being a support to the other. It was obvious that they would not be moving anywhere else that night. Hopefully Ramos would sleep on, and all would go well. Vlad would have to admit, this was one of the best nights he had had in a long while.
((And fade to black. If you want to move to the next morning then go right ahead my dear. ^.^))

Even the faintest stirrings of morning awoke Val from what was, at least for him, a deep sleep. The birds sang gaily outside and the faintest stirring in the air spun loose strands of hair around his face and arm. Strands of pale hair tickled his wing ear and it flapped with feather-padded stealth, bringing him fully awake. He was not at home, nor outside, nor was he clothed in any stretch of the imagination, unless four wings and a coon tail counted for something. Without moving, he glanced around, listened intently, and when he heard no one stir, relaxed against Vlad. Folding his wings just so, they were both covered almost entirely in dark purple feathers. Wing ears folded comfortably against his head, he kissed an area of skin just below Vlad's collarbone before closing his eyes again. Until the coon awoke, the most Val would allow for himself would be a light sleep.

It took the coon perhaps allitle longer than he really intended to get enough sleep. he had stayed awake most of the night, even afater Val had fallen asleep, thinknig about what had just happened. He had been thankful nothing had gone wrong, and was even more thankful now that his angel was still with him.
His eyes fluttered open, his head turning slightly, a fall of pale hair covering one eye as he looked at the handsome angel laying with him. His tail was drapped over them both, the fluffiness of it hiding most everything. He smiled and blinked his crimson eyes at Val. "Good morning.." His voice was deep, filled with that huskiness making the russian accent all the more thick.

Val felt the change in Vlad's breathing, instantly fully awake. The coon was met with a smile and ready lips. "Morning, lovely," he murmured, voice thick with sleep and desire as he pulled away from the kiss and reached up to slide the hair away from Vlad's eyes. It was just an excuse to play with his hair, but Val noticed in the back of his mind that his arm was as warm as it had been in a very long time. Well, not since falling into some drunken or exhausted asleep and waking up with an uncomfortably bruised gut... Ridiculous thing to recall at a time like this. Pushing it from his mind, he asked, "How do you feel?"

The coon's eyes closed as the other played with his hair. The look Vlad's eyes was the look of one very clearly drunk on pleasure. He was happy and it showed all over him. "I feel...better than I ever had before..." He ran his fingers over one of Val's headwings and sighed. "Vhat...vhat is the time?" He yawned softly, his body arching as he stretched his tired muscles.
Seemingly out of nowhere the sounds of something sliding on the floor came close to the pair. A small hand reached up, tugging on one of the dark feathers of Val's wing.
Not long after, there was the sound of someone running down one of the side halls, huffing and puffing before sliding to a stop in the living room. "Benjamin! what in the world are you do..in...g...?" Adam's crimson eyes finally made sense of Val and Vlad on the couch and turned a bright red, snatching the child away and covering his eyes. "The heck?! Seriously, get a room!"

Val sighed overly contented, feeling he could stay right here all day... until he heard someone or something approach. "Ah... time to get up..." he said rather quickly, feeling little fingers grabbing at a wing. He rose just enough to see a cute little one on the floor looking up at him. The angel smiled warmly and pulled out one of his feathers - what was a little pain? - and offered it to the child. About that time Adam came bustling into the room and began to chastise the boy, Vlad, and himself. "Sorry... we didn't want to wake Ramos last night," he said, glancing around hoping to find some clothes.

Adam rolled his eyes at the pair on the couch. He held his brother in his arms and sighed. "Ramos was crying all last night Vlad...You know your room is rigt across the hall from mine..." He looked at his brother as the child fingered the dark feather in his hand. "Looking for clothes?" He smirked. "I believe Haruna came in earlier and gathered them up to do the laundry." He turned his back on them and chuckled. "Oh yes..." He looked over his shoulder. "I'm not cleaning that couch.." He winked and carried his brother back to his parent's room.
Vlad had tensed up under his angel and only now did he relax. He looked at Val and shook his head. "Forgive Adam...he hasn't had a very good life as of late." He let the fact that his brother had been crying sink in. His happiness faded and he sighed. "Nightmares..." He shook his head and wrapped his arms around Val's waist.

Val looked after Adam. "I guess not," he sighed, then frowned slightly. Actually, though it was a fairly common name, 'Adam' did ring a bell. Whom did he know that had met that one before? The name Haruna did more than ring a bell. Val groaned. "Haru... he's Jimi's mate... everyone back home is going to know about us in no time." He grimaced and looked at Vlad, biting his lip. Oh well, it was not as if this could be kept hidden. He frowned again, Adam's words about Ramos taking a little longer to sink in. "Nightmares?" He paled, extremely feeling guilty, and hugged Vlad close. "We should go see him...or just you if you prefer."

"Let them know...everyone in the temple vill know now that Adam knows anyway..." He smirked and held his angel awhile longer before consenting to go check on his brother. 'Ve both vill go...Ramos vill only take anger vith me. vith you, he vill be happy." The coon reluctantly let the angel go. his body shaking with cold and other things that cause a man to shiver.
He waited for the other to move beofre sitting up himself. This was, quite the odd moment. He would have to go see Ramos inorder to get clothes.

Val smiled, not exactly happily, at the thought of both houses being privy to all of this. But what were they going to do, sneak out? More lunacy. As Vlad held him around the waist, the angel kissed his shoulder forcing himself to stop before the neck, hoping he was not distracting the coon too much. He just needed to kiss him. Wings were strategically draped to suggest that perhaps a pair of shorts were hidden behind the curtain of feathers. The angel kept an arm around Vlad's arm. "I'm not sure what we'll do once we get in there... How perceptive is your brother about this sort of thing?"

Vlad chuckled at his lover as he continued to hold him. It was indeed strange to want to hold onto someone, to keep someone close like this. It was almost like, he needed it. He sighed and looked at Val. "Vell, I gues ve go..." He wrapped his tail around some of his more revealing features and moved with Val to his room. This was a test of courage for the coon, he'd never even bothered to talked to his brother about these sorts of things before.
He pushed the door open, his hand reaching back to Val for support. He moved inside only to find Ramos starring at him from the bed. "Eh...Hello Ramos..."
Ramos looked at his brtoher and then to the form of Val behind him, his little arms were crossed over his chest. He looked tired, dark rings under his eyes. He hadn't slept much.

At the door Val took the coon's hand as he reached out for him. As he entered he closed the door behind them, then turned back and studied the younger brother with worsening guilt. He looked terrible, more fragile than ever with the dark shadows around his eyes. He looked upset perhaps, if the crossed arms were any indication. He offered a tentative smile and waved to the boy with his free hand. "Good morning, Ramos."

Ramos looked at Val and forced a small smile. He hadn't missed the pair's attire, or lack there of as it were, he simply said nothing. "Good m-ornings...Val" The smaller coon looked at His brtoher and near pouted. "You n-never came to b-bed last night...I v-vas lonely..."
Vlad sighed and ran his hand through his hair as he looked at his brother and then to Val. "I couldn't Ramos...I vas busy talking vith Val." He looked over his shoulder at his angel. He had lied, he had had to, he didn't know where to begin with all of this.

Val took a silent deep breath as he watched the exchange between the brothers. He said nothing, face becoming an emotionless mask before the coon turned to look at him. What Vlad told his brother and withheld was his own business. However, he only felt worse for all of this. Ramos had been alone and terrified while... He slid his hand free of Vlad's and smiled briefly. "I'm going to go check on the load," he said and backed toward the door. He had no idea where the laundry room was but knew he would find it easily enough, especially if the clothes were still washing. Besides, it was obvious the brothers had some catching up to do. "See you later." The angel slipped out the door and closed it behind him.
