Mitsuji smiled slighty at the return of the hug before letting it fade quickly and tucking his emotions back again. He curled his tail around his own waist as his grip loosened from the male. "Your my friend, so I have to visit every not and then." He nodded a bit, but realized it had only been a day. A day...and he needed to see the male again. Was he becoming obssessed now? He didn't want to and if anything it would scare him away from Aspen if he continued to think that. "I felt like I needed to see you today for some reason, but it's probably nothing." He shrugged and let out a yawn before eyeing around the room.
Was he beginning to slowly like Aspen? He hoped not. He wasn't ready for that type of commitment was he? No of course he wasn't. Being friends with Aspen was his number one priority right now and that would never change since he found Aspen too good to just be pushed aside like he did to Mayuki because of her admittance to loving him. He should of never done that to her since the results were clearly being shown now. "I feel a bit drained and tired." He simply said even if he was thinking all those thoughts. He hadn't really slept good lately and didn't know why this time.

Aspen nodded, a small smile still clinging to his lips as he sat up again,
"I'm pleased you did come by.. maybe you just... felt that you'd be needed? I dont know.. that happens with friends somtimes, they show up just when they're needed most.." He had a feeling that Mitsuji might just need a reason to justify his showing up here as he had done..
"You're always welcome here.. I've told you that already." he stated warmly.
"But it doesnt surprise me that you feel drained.. losing blood will do that to you.. you should probably get some rest.. You can stay here if you want to, we have a spare bedroom, but I can understand you'd probably prefer to go home.." He brused his brown nad white hair away from his eyes. He knew he liked the dragons companny, and it meant the world to him that his friend actually wanted to come and see him. It was still sad though.. Mitsuji was so young.. younger than Aspen himself.. and yet he'd been through so very much.
~*~
Raine Laughed
"Okay! That sounds fun! You can help me as you seem to know more about it than I do! Maybe youcan even help me learn somthing new!" He beamed at her and wanderd in fluttery steps across the room and opened the door, before leading the way down to the kitchen where he began to rummage around for things he thought would go well in theyre meal, encouraging Sayeh to do the same thing.

Sayeh was right behind him, twirling as she followed and so excited. As she came into the kitchen, her violet eyes lit up. Seeing that Raine was going through stuff and permitting her to do the same, the feline went to work.
Moving from drawer to cabinet and this way again. In her travels, she pulled out pots for rice cooking, oil to cook the rice in as middle eastern foods use oils over water, and several different spices: cumin, paprika, Tumeric, sumac, allspice and nutmeg. She then set them down and looked at him curiously. "Do you like to eat meats or non-meats more?"

(( Ryota: *Peeks in from nowhere* Friend my a**! My bro is in denile! biggrin *Sits down and eats popcorn wondering if he brother will stay the night* ninja ))
Mitsuji listened to him before brushing his clothes off a bit and pondered the thought of staying here. Hide wasn't home anymore so he didn't have to worry about him and he hadn't felt the presence of Zuka around in awhile now. "Glad you weren't around a few years back when I really got hurt." He was speaking of the time when he finished his training with Mayuki and left on his own. He would only tell the story if Aspen asked, but if he didn't then he would leave it in the back of his mind. He still remembered the day very vividly in his mind. The images of blood laid dormant in his memory and waited to be looked at again.
"I'll stay here. I don't think I could make the walk home anyway if I tried. My body feels like it's going to give way right now." He nodded since the lack of sleep plus the blood loss was taking a toll on his body right now. "Just leave me to the room." He said as he rose to his feet slowly and looked around.

Aspen blinked at his friend as he got up.. he didnt really know if he wanted to ask.. but curiosity often got the better of him..
"What happened to you then..?" He asked, lightly touching the dragons arm befor eturning and waking slowly out the room, and turning straight to the door on the right, one next to the stair case. His own room and Raines were up there, this one was the designated guest room.
He opened the door and reached in, turning the lights on. It was a fairly normal looking room with dark wood panelling and white walls above that. The bed was set against the far wall and had a fairly heavy looking deep red duvet on it, with four white pillows.
"I hope its okay.." He said quietly as he stepped into the room himself and moved over to the red sofa that was set just along from the bed on the back wall..
"It should be confortable enough for you.." he was really pleased that Mitsuji was staying.. he didnt want anythiing to happen to him on the way back to where he lived.. he'd have been worried.
~*~
Raine giggled at his feline friend..
"Oh, I like vegetables more, but I dont mind if you want to put meat in it, I only need to eat a very little any way!" He was very slightly built, and very light as he needed his fine wings to be able to lift him.
"You can add whatever you like to it.." He said with a smile, putting a few things like some onions down.. onions were always good...

Sayeh blinked a bit curiously. "Do you like Fish? If so, what kind of fish? What is your favorite veggie or fruit to eat?" She beamed. Oh she was having a blast now! It took very little to make her happy.
As she was getting the pot onto a stovetop, she glanced over and noticed how he moved with such ease but yet he had a slight muscular tone and her ears twitched. She openned her mouth, about to ask him if she could ask a question, but she stopped; she remembered who it was she was talking to. So she skipped it. "Raine, do you work out or do training or something?" To her, she was slightly confused. Didn't muscle weigh more then fat? Her utter confusion was evident as her ears folded back, frustrated at the lack of logic.

Mitsuji followed Aspen after hearing what he asked. He didn't mind telling the male anything now since he felt rather close to him. When he walked into the room, he looked at his bed and then the sofa Aspen sat on. He tossed his coat on the end of the sofa before taking off the belts that were over his shorts. "It was just the worst beating I ever recieved next to the whole Akemi thing when I was younger." He paused and sat down on the edge of his bed facing Aspen. "I just got done finishing training myself with Mayuki, but left without telling her. We lived a good distance away from here in a land of only dragons, but only certain people were exceptions to the rule. Anyway, she must of told her close friends about it since she was heartbroken that I left and they tracked me down. I was outnumbered one to fifteen. I wouldn't kill them either since they weren't my original targets at the time. They beat me down until I could barely move and I remember myself being covered in nothing but my own blood." He said and let out a light sigh.
"This is why I stay away from Mayuki. It might not have been her fault, but that scarred me. She has no clue that happened though." He stated and laid back on the bed.

Aspen was rather shocked.. that was some story.. Mitsuji really didnt ever seem to catch a break to be honest.. the poor guy..
"Thats awful.." he stated, his eyes full of sympathy, and a note of respect for the dragon.. he haddnt killed any of them.. that had to be respected, especially under the circumstances he'd been left with.
"I'm amazed your still alive.. ot be honest.. with all that you seem to have been through.. ist fairly amazing.." he said quietly, his eyes never leaving the dragon as he spoke.
"I can understand you not wanting to be around her.. thats horriffic.." He tucked one leg up to his chest and wrapped his arms arounf it, resting his chin on his knee.
"You'll be okay donw here wont you..? If you need anything the kitchen is two doors down on the other side of the corridoor.. and you know where my room is upstairs..." He nodded..
"Would you like me to stay down here a little longer, or do you want to go to sleep..?" He'd do whatever Mitsuji wanted just now, since his friend probably really was in need of rest.
~*~
"I like Salmon.." Raine said.
"And I love tomatos! Only recently though.. they do taste good though!" He blinked at her, noting her confusion..
"Not really.. I think the way I look is just part of what I am.. because if I wasnt really light I wouldnt be able to fly, would I?" he asked, smiling..
"So I think I just naturally weigh very very little compared to everyone else!" he flicked his fluffy antenae a little as he thought about it..
"Because butterflys are always light!"

Mitsuji just remained laying on his back on the soft surface of the bed. "I'm fine now and yes I'm still alive. I have always wondered though what everything would be like if I did die from Zuka those many years ago." He shrugged slightly before sitting up and moving back on the bed before laying down fully. He placed his head down on the pillow and yawned again. "You can stay until I nod off." He said lightly before shutting his white eyes and laid on his back. He wasn't going to get under the covers since he wasn't cold, so he found no point in it. "This will be an odd question, but what is your favorite color?" He asked him in a light tone as he tried to stay awake a little while longer.

Her hand touched the side of her own face. "Of course!" How stupid of her! She completely forgot he was a butterfly sometimes just because the swirl of his colors COMPLETELY distracted her half the time. She then smiled and looked around for Salmon. In the process, she poured a thin layer of oil down at the bottom of a skillet and then turned the flame to low.
Sayeh seemed a little embarrassed. "Sorry Raine.. I can get a little thoughtless. Believe it or not, I.. sort of..... forgot that.. you're a butterfly." Her ears fell backwards and she turned away. She could feel a blush running to her face. She was ashamed. However, she didn't want to show Raine how embarrased she was, so she ran over to the coldest container and tried to see if there was salmon inside.

"My favourite colour..?" Aspen murmured quietly..
"Light blue.. like the sky when its sunny.." He said, smiling as he thought about it..
"I really likes reds and greens too, but light blue is my favourite." he let his eyes flick over ot his friend, really pleased that he was likely going to fall asleep naturally..
He let his eyes flick over his friend once.. he was young, but you almost wouldnt know it to look at him, he didnt look like somone still in their teens, but there was no way Aspen could think badly of how he looke.d. but he did know of all the scars hidden by the flamboyant jacket.. They didnt mar him half as much as Mitsuji thought they did though, at least not in Aspens opinion.
"I'm pleased you didint die.." He said quietly.
~*~
"Dont worry Sayeh!" Raine chuckled quietly..
"It doesnt matter at all, its not somthing we talk about all the time.." He scampered over to his friend and hugged onto her back, curling his arms acorss her shoulders, chuckling happily.
"There should be some fish on the top shelf there!" He said, pointing..
"I dont know how much we have, but it should be enough!" He smiled as he let her go, and went to cut up some vegetables to put in their meal.

Spotting a single filet of salmon, she picked it up. She turned back and on her way over to the other stuff, she left the fish in one hand and hugged him with her one arm smiling to him. "Thanks Raine. I think you are the first person I ever met who is butterfly but your colors are just so amazing I forget. Thanks for being understanding." She nuzzled him and smiled happily. "You're such a good friend to me."
She then turned and laid the fish down and stood back curiously. The oil was heated up so she then laid the uncooked rice down inside. An inquisitive stare came over her face. "Do you like nuts and long noodles?"

Mitsuji listened to him attentively as he still gought the urge to just doze off. His tail laid still at his side while his right arm rested on his stomach and the other beside him. His breathing was light and he could feel his dreams trying to snatch him away from the conscious world. "They are all nice colors." He murmured softly before thinking of his favorite color that was quite obvious. "I have two....one is white and the other is red. Red signifies anger and rage. Someone's anger spark being lit and rampaging around hurting others. Then at the same time love and passion. A red rose that someone gets from a special someone or a red box of chocolates. It's like the beating of someone's heart...the feelings are shown the brightest there." He paused before yawning lightly. "It's sad that a color as trancing as red has to have a seperate meaning involoving anger." He siad lightly before letting out a soft sigh. "I wonder what love feels like as well as passion... I'll tell you about white another time or whenever you ask me." He muttered softly to no one in particular. "Goodnight Aspen..Seeya tomorrow." He said lightly once again before letting his dreams snatch him away.

Aspen smiled as he listened to his friend speaking, it was slightly strange to hear Mitsuji speaking like that.. the dragon himself had said he didnt often feel things, and it was nice for Aspen to think that he was able to open up to him like that..
"Good night.." He said quietly, pushing himself up to his feet, his eyes resting on his friend for a moment longer.
He'd have to check the wounds over again in the morning,just to make sure that they were healing okay, and he'd also have to remember to ask him about why he liked white as well...
"I like red a lot.." he said as he stepped across the room to the door, keeping his voice quiet.
"But I think you made me like it even more." He let himself out of the room then, and made his way quietly up the stairs to his own room.
~*~
"I think I like most things!" He replied in a sing song voice, popping a small piece of tomato into his mouth and smling at his friend.
"You can make anything you want! I'm sure it'll be lovely!" He liked helping here out, and began putting the things he'd chopped up over near to her, before scampering away for a moment and coming back with some dried noodles and a bag of mixed nuts..
"Will these do Sayeh..?" He asked her happily.

Sayeh mewed happily. "Perfect!" She took it gratefully, and bowed her head to him. The one pot she had left to sit there with oil inside that now boiled a little bit. She poured the dried noodles in there and put the nuts in with the rice. Taking out a spatula, she moved the rice around.
She then looked over and found two plates Setting them down beside the cooking area, she glanced over to him and smiled. "I am going to make sure there are some really pretty tomatoes in here. Anything else I can add to make it to your liking?" Secretly she hoped he would take something and cook up a dish but she would never ask such of him.
