Welcome to Gaia! ::

Derrik smiled. "Why does that matter?" He leaned down and brushed the others face and then kissed cheek. "They are in the other room, drying. I gave them a quick wash, so now I guess Ill just run around in the nude... or wrapped up as so. Depending what your more comfortable with."

By the time he was done talking he laying down, and arm across the others chest, letting loose a yawn. "its so calm and comfortable here. Such a difference from the labyrinth."

Derrik smiled at the thought of Jade worring about his well being. "Oh but if Im laying with you, I shouldn't get cold." He laughed as he pushed closer to other and laid hsi head down on his chest.

"I find it the complete opposite though. I find that the labyrinth is dull and boring, lacking of life. But here... its just do vibrant, and lively, but yet calm. You can't help but want to take in the nature, all of it... complete... through your whole body. Its so... peaceful. But you know... perhaps its just you though..." He started to draw circles in the others chest.

Derrik shrugged. "I guess... but hopelessness is immobile, and the labyrinth is full of it. Not that I dont feel at home around they feeling of despair. Its just nice to actually find a way to deal with the complete opposite. You know. Sometimes a vacation is needed."

He sat up and leaned of Jade. "You know what I mean don't you?" He smiled and reached down and kissed Jade, wondering why he was falling for someone. He certainly wasn't someone to be able to commit to something. Especially given his many years in the labyrinth, never seeing the same person more than a few times. But he didn't want to leave Jade's side, at least for now.

Derrik was always into leaving in the moment, and the moment was calling for Jade, and thats all he wanted. He wasn't sure whether things would change int eh future, but he would deal with the future when it came, but now... he was content with Jade's lips against his. He could just lay here with him all day, and have a good time.

Derrik closed his eyes as Jade wrapped his arms around his neck and continued to kiss him, not really hearing his words, or putting them together right away. Once he thought they both had their fill of affection, he pulled away, and laid next to him once more, head on his chest. Then the words of Jade seemed to fit together and registered.

"Change is always good. Your the best change that walked through those walls I have seen since the construction of the labyrinth. Im glad I happened across you, even if you are a bit sloppy with apples." Her was smiling and then he sat up again, his face void of emotion as he thought about something, running his hand through his hair.

"Jade... lets try this again. No tricks... okay? Wish for hearts deepest desire." He didn't know what had come over him. It could have just been that as a djinn part of him always wanted to grant wishes and that played a key role in how he acted, in every emotion her felt. He had no intentions of corrupting the wish. But he just had to know what was in the Butterflies heart. Did he want freedom from his thrown? Did he want to stay by his side? Did he want something more? Or was he simply content with his life?

Derrik smiled and kissed Jade. He was more than happy to grant this wish. "I will be yours then." He laid down and let out another yawn. He was more tired than he had originally thought, and to have Jade want him so, the same way Derrik wanted Jade, he was more than content to further their relationship, as they were more than friends, but they weren't exactly lovers, were they? But Derrik would stay with him, and see what would blossom of there relationship.

He closed his eyes and soon fell to a comfortable sleep, the towel unraveled barely covering him. He was comfort event though it was a little cool, he was with Jade, and Jade was warming his heart, a heart that before, he though was dormant or had not existed. When he would wake he knew Jade would be there, and together they could go set out on some sort of journey, the emotional journey of a couple. He would take jade anywhere, give him anything. Do what ever he wanted. He was falling in love, but he didn't realize it exactly.

Derrik moved a little in his sleep, pulling at the covers that were over his now naked body. He wrapped an arm around Jade, taking comfort in the pleasure of the others company. He had not been intimate with anyone in... well nearly forever. So even in his subconscious, he was being protective and not wanting him to go anywhere.

His hands were soft to the touch and he was warm. He was a very attractive male, and he had very touchable skin, even though his face was scared from his past, but it was part of him, and he grew to like it. It helped him put on the bad boy facade, even if he wasn't all that bad.

Derrik open his eyes, slightly. A tired smile forming on his lips. He just stared at the other, into his eyes. He couldn't pull away. He cuddled into the other chest further, finding the sound of his breath and the beat of his heart, to provide more comfort than any pillow made with the softest of cotton.

"I suppose... we should get off to doing something?" He moved and straddled over top of Jade, the covers sliding down his back and off of him. He leaned forward and kissed Jade's cheek. "As much as I like staying here in bed with you... it would leave a foul taste in my mother to sleep away the day and not admire the beauty of this land."
