๑۩۞۩๑ ๑۩ﺴ Some shadows have more depth. ﺴ۩๑ " A million quarters from the slot machine will be just fine." Ethan smirked lightly. Being off of school would be great, but considering all the stuff that happened he'd probably be held back a year. Maybe he'd take summer school to make up his credits, he was sure the school wouldn't mind, but that sure wasn't how he wanted to spend his summer. He sighed at the thought then looked back at Lock when asked about his brother. " No. I don't really want to see anyone right now, but I'm sure my whole family will barge in sometime after you leave."

✻ ✺ ✹ ✴ʆ ock ҥan✸ ✷ ✶ ✵ " If you need me, just call and I'll be on the first flight back," he said, zipping up his bag and reaching for the puppy, who had woken up and jumped a little in excitement. He carried her close to his face, letting her lick his nose before cradling her to his chest and scratching under her chin. " And you, little missy, better take good care of your mama while I'm gone," he said. " Don't let him get too sad, and keep making him happy." He said a short phrase in Korean, which she barked to, then he held her out for Ethan to take. " Here, before I accidentally take her with me."

๑۩۞۩๑๑۩ﺴ Some shadows have more depth. ﺴ۩๑ Ethan reached for the pup then suddenly hesitated. " Wait, why am I the mama?" he asked then picked Clementine back up and set her down on his lap.

✻ ✺ ✹ ✴ʆ ock ҥan✸ ✷ ✶ ✵Lock shrugged. " Fits you better, I guess," he answered, then slung his bag over his shoulder and glanced at his watch. " I better get going. I really don't want to be late for the end of the birthing." The blonde leaned down to kiss Ethan, then stood upright and turned to the door. " I'll be home tomorrow afternoon. Don't forget to eat dinner and breakfast well!"

๑۩۞۩๑๑۩ﺴ Some shadows have more depth. ﺴ۩๑ " Yeah. See you tomorrow!" Ethan nodded from the front doorway of the dorm. He half waved to Lock then closed the door behind him and looked into the room. It had only been two seconds and already it was really quiet. " It's going to be a long day." he sighed to himself and moved to the couch, thinking of what he was in the mood to do.

✻ ✺ ✹ ✴ʆ ock ҥan✸ ✷ ✶ ✵Lock took a breath as he stood outside his door, looking down to where he knew his car sat. The airport wasn't that far away, he didn't think. He honestly didn't want to go, but he knew that he needed to. " Damn," he cursed, then started walking again. Awesome nerd Sounds good. Can you do it?

๑۩۞۩๑๑۩ﺴ Some shadows have more depth. ﺴ۩๑ Ethan stared at the TV mindlessly, though it was turned off. He was contemplating whether it was worth it to get the remote or to do nothing but be left with his thoughts. Both were a pretty tough choice. The Texan blinked when he felt something against his food and looked down to see the puppy persistently trying to jump onto his lap. A tired sigh escaped him, but Ethan still smiled and picked Clementine up to help her with her quest. " I guess it's just you and me for now." he said while scratching behind one of her ears. " I wonder if dogs can eat oranges?" he mumbled under his breath to himself. ~~~A day passed without Ethan even realizing it. He spent most of his time playing with Clementine. Where she got her boundless energy he'd never know, but it definitely helped make him feel better. He still wasn't close to being back to his old self, but he wasn't too far off either. Ethan sighed contently as he drank some of his orange juice. It had been a long time since he had this. Ever since that incident he couldn't stomach it without thinking of the author looming over him with that twisted smile, but now he just couldn't resist that sweet citrus. It tasted so good. To think that he could ever forget that! Hearing Clementine's whimpers from the floor, Ethan glanced down at her then his glass of juice. He was suddenly reminded of his thoughts about dogs and oranges. Would now be a good time to test it out...?

✻ ✺ ✹ ✴ʆ ock ҥan✸ ✷ ✶ ✵Lock opened the door to the dorm, about to announce his return, only for his boyfriend and their pet to catch his attention. He chuckled, that begging look in Clementine's big eyes the reason why he picked her out in the first place. " Dogs can eat oranges," he said, grabbing an orange from a side table and peeling it enough to pull out a single slice. He checked it for seeds, then knelt down and offered it to Clementine, who eagerly scurried over to eat the fruit. After devouring it, she decided that Lock's hand was her new enemy and growled a little, opening her mouth and starting to nibble on his thumb. The Korean laughed, sitting Indian style on the ground and letting her "attack" him. " I'm glad you two are just as I left you," he said, cheerful eyes glancing up to Ethan. " Did you miss me?"

๑۩۞۩๑๑۩ﺴ Some shadows have more depth. ﺴ۩๑ " You were gone for a day. I don't know how we could change." Ethan remarked as he watched Lock get attacked by Clementine. Wait, no. He understood why Lock said that. After all, the last time he left the Texan had been kidnapped in that short time. Ethan exhaled slowly and changed the subject in his mind to Clementine. He was glad to hear that she could have oranges, it was all the more reason to keep her around. When Lock spoke again, Ethan snapped out of his thoughts and looked at him for a moment. " It definitely wasn't the same without you." he said with a light smile. " Did you miss me?"

✻ ✺ ✹ ✴ʆ ock ҥan✸ ✷ ✶ ✵" I always miss you," he said, facing the Texan and smiling up at him. " Every second that we're apart, I miss the hell out of you- ow!" He snapped his hand up, shaking his hand a little. The damn dog had sunk her sharp little teeth into one of his pressure points. He set her down, and she skittered a little before bounding over to Ethan, yipping. " I think she wants more orange. Do you have her bowl somewhere?"

๑۩۞۩๑๑۩ﺴ Some shadows have more depth. ﺴ۩๑ Even though the mood was ruined by Clementine's vicious bite, Ethan couldn't help but chuckle. " Guess you can't appeal to everything." he said and looked down when the pup went to him for treats. " It should be near the kitchen." he said as he got up to go get it. A pang of worry hit him, though. If Clementine loved oranges than she'd want one all the time, and he wasn't sure if he could just share his oranges so easily. It took a long time for him to not fidget uncomfortably when Lock would have a glass of orange juice.

✻ ✺ ✹ ✴ʆ ock ҥan✸ ✷ ✶ ✵Lock clicked his tongue twice, the puppy looking over to him, then to the leaving Ethan. He clicked his tongue again, this time a little louder, and the puppy whined a little before walking back over to him, her tail between her legs in disappointment. She stepped over his feet to sit in his lap, setting her small head on his knee and watching the kitchen with her big, inquisitive eyes. " She's so cute," cooed Lock, scratching behind her ears. " Kind reminds me of when we first met."

✻ ✺ ✹ ✴ʆ ock ҥan✸ ✷ ✶ ✵" You were just as innocent. I kinda feel like I ruined you," he said as the dog leaped off of his lap and over to the bowl where she immediately dug in. " I mean, you liked girls, you kept to yourself, nothing super bad really happened to you. If I'd never come into your life, you'd probably just be hearing about Detective Waltz and my shenanigans through the grapevine."

๑۩۞۩๑๑۩ﺴ Some shadows have more depth. ﺴ۩๑ " Please," snorted Ethan. " If anything, you saved me. I was turning into a shut-in by the time you came. Now I've got a few friends, I'm getting control of my shadow, and I've got someone I love." He smiled and tried to ignore how cheesy he sounded. " But you did kinda molest me when we first met, so there's that." he pointed out.
