Welcome to Gaia! ::

Damion nuzzled into the crook of Kaile's neck and looked up at him through tear filled eyes. He wanted nothing more than to deny his weakness and the fact that he was crying, but that would be pointless. Instead he let the black haired man hold him and rock him. Plus it wasn't too selfish to abuse this as a chance to cuddle with his crush, right?

The older man pouted up to Kaile with the 'that's a joke right?' look on his face, but in more of a joking manor himself about the whole 'talk' thing. He then shook his head. He didn't feel comfortable telling him anything like that. Even if he did really like the other man. It was hard for him to trust anyone, and Kaile was no exception. It was a miracle he trusted the other man enough to like him the way he did, and cuddle with him like he was.

Damion realized it was upsetting Kaile that he kept thing secret from him. But could he really trust him with something so big? Plus his brother was there. He didn't need Asura knowing his personal life. It was time to tell Kaile what happened. It was time to open up to him. He really did like the ravenette, and here the man was nursing Damion back to help. However he looked over to Asura, then back to Kaile. "After he leaves. I guess it really is about time I gave you an explanation." He signed.

----------------------------------------

Damion watch the younger Hades boy leave and sighed. It was time Kaile knew. "It was my eleventh birthday." He began. "I was sitting on my dad's desk in his office while he discussed a hit with some of the other familia members. I was waiting for the meeting to end because right after the meeting was supposed to be my party." he Aphrodite counselor struggled with how to word (or sign) the story he was trying to tell. Thinking back to that day really scared him. "The meeting was almost over, when something crashed threw the window and caused and explosion. Some where I heard someone yell that it was a molotov cocktail. The police and fire department was there in minutes. Everyone made it out okay, but I had been stuck under a my dad's desk because I was too scared to move. I stayed there so long that the smoke suffocated me and I past out. When I woke up, I was on a stretcher being loaded into a truck." The white haired man sniffed, remembering his fear and anxiety from that horrible day. Tears welled in his eyes and he had to pause to wipe the drops away. "I couldn't speak without it hurting my throat," he continued, "and my dad was there telling me it was going to be okay. When they did the x-rays they said the smoke had damaged my vocal chords beyond repair. My only only options were to either get a robotic voice box or get my vocal chords removed completely and not be able to talk at all. I decided I'd prefer not to talk over sounding like a robot and having electrical issues with it." By that point Damion was sobbing and struggling to sign properly. "That's why I can't talk. That's how it all happened. That's why my dad can't let me come home." Damion hugged onto Kaile, now resolved to nothing but a mess of hot tears. He couldn't go on. It was too painful, but he was glad to finally be honest with the Hades counselor. The black haired man was so kind to him. Damion finally felt like he could trust Kaile with anything.

Damion looked up to Kaile through tear filled eyes as the younger man hugged him. It brought a bit of pink to hid face realizing how close their faces were. With out thinking he leaned in and peaked the ravenette on the lips before quickly pulling away and covering his mouth, his face now bright red. What had he just done?

Damion gasped at the peck on his cheek, and was shocked by the younger man's response. He looked up at the Ravenette with disbelief. Is it possible that Kaile liked him back? Suppose it would've had to been true if the other man had just kissed him, even if it was on the cheek. The white haired man couldn't do anything but stare at the other and gawk.

Damion felt like he was going to faint, and it wasn't just from the fever. He took a deep intake of air and nodded slowly as a smile slowly creeped across is now bright red face. He hugged Kaile tightly and nuzzled his head into the nook of the ravenette's neck. Letting out a small cough, the Aphrodite counselor closed his eyes and relaxed, now more comfortable then he had ever been in his life in curled up to the Hades counselor.
