It had been rough--figuring out that KyuHyun had picked up a weapon, just to protect him. And why didn't he just protect himself? The man had acted so strange, his coughing was distressing, and though SungMin might seem dull he really wasn't. He knew better. Fiddling with his bunny while sitting out by the lake, amongst the tall grass and out of the sun, he sighed and brought the bunny up to press against his mouth.
Hiding the lower half of his face, he bit the inside of his cheek to the point of drawing blood. Why was he so distressed over this? Had he finally woken up to the idea that he wasn't going to be continuously safe? That something could attack him, and Kyu, and possibly kill one of them? In this territory he was never frightened, they had over thirty of them...but with Tempo plotting war and that strange black cat lurking around, he was worried that maybe...maybe they wouldn't be safe.
As the bright sky mocked the Rex, his ears stayed folded back, and he often let his eyes stay squinted as he walked through the territory of the Ruins. With his lover being a little distant lately, and the reason was most likely his own fault, Kyu often kept his distance, not wanting to face SungMin's judging eyes. But he couldn't avoid his lover forever! He had to face the fact that this was just a rough time in their relationship, and hopefully they can get through this change in mentality. After all, the world was a dangerous place.... Yet, even then, people still manage to live life, despite the ugly truth.
Dragging his feet against the earth, he decided to go figure out what his Minnie was up to. Around this time, his love often enjoyed the view at the lake, it's glimmering shine was indeed beautiful... and seeing his love there would make it even more breathtaking. Making out the lake from afar, he secretly crossed his fingers, hoping SungMin was and wasn't there.... It was a weird feeling. He wanted to see him, and yet his guilt still wanted him to prolong their meeting. "Nyeh! I'm being so stupid..." he muttered. How could he NOT want to see his Minnie. Breaking off into a run, he didn't care if he went out of breathe. He had to see... to see if there was a chance to talk things out with his lover, and what to look forward to in their future together.
SungMin had no real reason to be angry. KyuHyun could learn to fight...he could protect them. But it was the idea that he couldn't protect him in return that was driving him crazy. What if something happened to KyuHyun? Then what would he do? he couldn't protect himself, couldn't protect his lover...Scoffing, he shoved the bunny down into his lap and leaned back against his palms, keeping his legs crossed. Sighing heavily, he closed his eyes and bit his lower lip--before hearing someone running.
Perking his ears, his eyes snapped open and he felt his fur stand on end for a moment, debating on running. When had he gotten so paranoid? It was only when the wind blew that he figured out who it was, sighing and moving to stand, relieved. Looking up towards his lover, he tried to force the expression off his face tha the knew would upset the man. He...wasn't trying to be judging. He wasn't trying to be hurtful, he just wished there had been a way to keep them both from having to fight...but that was impossible.
Moving forward when KyuHyun got closer, he left his bunny in his spot and waited for him to slow, lifting his arms up to wrap around the man's neck the second he stopped. He could hear his wheezing--there was something definitely wrong--but he didn't say anything about it..for now.
Feeling the embrace of his lover's arms wound up around his neck, he too felt the need to wrap his arms around Minnie. Taking a few deep breathes, he tried very cautiously to regular his breathing. Although he was weakened at the moment, he truly believed if he could condition his body and mind, he would overcome his chest pains and breathing problems. He refused for something so small to affect him forever. Plus he didn't want Minnie to be concerned about his condition. It was why he refused to admit anything to his lover.... at least for the time being.
After their small moment of silence, Kyu pulled SungMin back a bit, so he could look into his lover's eyes. His expression wasn't very natural.... and it did hurt to see this kind of Minnie. At a lost for words, he briefly furrowed his brows and pouted. "Hmph.... SungMin! You left your bunny alone... You should take better care of your possessions..." he muttered. Despite this being completely irrelevant to their embrace and situation, it was the best thing he could come up with to end their awkward silence, despite how sweet it actually was...
It was kind of awkward. he'd never had problems with KyuHyun--sure, he played games a lot, and didn't like to get up in the morning...but they were peaceful and found a way for it to work. Sniffing a bit, he was held at arm's length when his bunny was pointed out. Glancing over his shoulder, he stared at the white bunny flopped onto its stomach, before looking back to KyuHyun.
"He knows I have priorities.." SungMin pointed out, smiling a bit. Reaching his hands forward to rest over the man's chest, feeling his heartbeat and his strained breathing, the burmese sighed and moved forward again to nuzzle into KyuHyun's neck, sliding his hands down to the other's waist.
"I love you," he murmured, toying with the base of his lover's tail nervously. "I dont want it to be awkward anymore.." He could get over the weapon thing. Actually, he wanted to pick one up himself...he wanted to be able to protect them if something happened. "So i want you to teach me...what you're learning, too."
Staring back at his lover, slightly dumbfounded, he tried to soak up what his lover was saying. "You want.... me to teach you?" Today was clearly a "Let's throw off Kyu as much as we can day". Thinking about his lover words carefully, he was judging its sincerity. SungMin seemed pretty determined to learn about weaponry. This determination is what shocked him the most.... It didn't seem like a mere obligation to do it just because he was doing it. No, it seemed like Sung had a reason for this, although he didn't know what this reason was. Obviously he too wants to protect himself now that the matter had been brought up... but it seemed like there was something else....
Trying to shake it off, he smiled at his Minnie and nodded. "I could teach you lover... but even I'm still learning..." he drifted off, remembering his sparring sessions with a woman who went by the name of Satine. They were most brutal, but they thought him a lot about how an enemy might attack. Such fights would be aggressive and most definately scary if it weren't for the adrenaline rush that occured during such moments. Blanking back to reality, he turned back to his lover and placed his hand across Minnie's lip, stroking them lightly. "Just so you know, I'll always love you too..." he added with a weakened tenderness in his voice.
For some reason life seemed bittersweet. Both of them were agreeing on this weapon ordeal... yet it seemed like he wanted to give something back to Minnie. "Is there something you might want lover? I mean having you do this... I feel as if I'm gaining something and you're not.... Is there anything you'd want me to do? Move? Travel..." lingering around what he was about to say next, he gulped... "kids...?" That last part wasn't as easy as it sounded... They couldn't have kids the conventional way.... but it was possible...
Nodding at this, he figured it'd be good practice for the man to learn from this woman while also teaching him. SungMin wasn't dead-set on learning it quickly, especially if he had to practice with another living being...at least if Kyu taught him, it'd be easier to just practice with trees or something, not Kyu.
Turning his gaze down between them, he brought his hands around to toy with the material of his lover's shirt, ears drawn back. He listened to him--really, he'd been thinking for a while...but...This was one reason why he wanted to learn to defend himself, and his lover. "That's why I want to learn to use a weapon," he murmured just above a whisper, looking up to KyuHyun through his blonde bangs, "I wanted...to maybe have kittens...I've seen all of them around here and played with them, so.." He didn't know how Kyu felt on the matter, especially now, when their relationship seemed a little rocky. But not in a way, he hoped at least, that'd end up with them splitting.
"I dont want to move or travel, I like it here...and Tempo's talking about breaking apart the facility, so..if we had babies...they'd be safe."
Twitching his ears as his lover mumbled a bit, he always knew deep down that SungMin would want to be a parent. Now for Kyu, he knew he'd obliged to this request should Minnie ever bring it up, even if it meant that they would have to resort to a surrogate mother. His only hopes were that the mother wouldn't be forever apart of their lives.... More like "well here's the babies", then boom! Gone!
Raising his hand to his lover's face, he stroke back Sungmin's bangs, brushing them away so he could look into his gorgeous eyes. "I like it here too... and you're right. It would be a nice environment to raise children..." With a small smirk, he sighed heavily, nodding gently. "Let's do it..." he stated rather bluntly... "We should have kids... Hopefully one of them ends up loving games!" he added jokingly in a cheerful manner. "But um.... Minnie.... How..... I mean... who... Well... you know what I'm saying right?" Now that they are agreeing on having a family, they had to decide how this was going to happen.... Perhaps the most trickiest part of the process....
Blinking up at the other when his bangs were pushed back, he cocked his head and smiled when he agreed. He hadn't expected himt o agree so easily--it made his stomach flutter and his mind shoot through so many different subjects. Where would the babies sleep? What should their names be? How many were they going to have? Would the mother stick around?
He didn't want to bombard the man with questions, so he kept his mouth shut. Instead, he blinked at the question--ah, yeah. The difficult part. He frowned a bit before biting his lower lip and humming in a contemplative manner. "Well.." He murmured, moving a hand back to rub at his neck before wrapping his arms around the younger cat's own neck. Leaning up to kiss at the man's cheek, he smiled brightly--a real smile, it had been a while--and wiggled his hips so his tail brushed the backs of his thighs. "We can find someone, I'm sure...the real question is...who will be the blood-father," he questioned, his tone teasing. They both obviously didn't prefer girls over the other, or at least SungMin didn't know if Kyu had an attraction for girls or not...SungMin appreciated their forms and their postures, but had never wanted to touch one before.
Kissing at his cheek once more, he brought his mouth down to his jaw and purred softly, looking up at the other with a grin. This would be...interesting to figure out.
Smiling at the glow SungMin had on his face, he ignored the question about the blood-father for just a moment since the answer to that was actually really simple. Kissing his lover's nose gently, he whispered. "Minnie..." before continuing on with the point it was about the make, he brushed his nose against Minnie's face before resting his shoulders for a moment. "I think the chances of me talking to a woman...... let alone not making her run away because of my meanie ways... would not be a very good idea...." Kyu had this streak of turning off people he meets, or just shutting himself off so well, no one would even want to talk to him. Getting a woman, to take him seriously.... probably wasn't going to happen... Heck getting another man to bed him probably wouldn't happen either.... It seemed the world was being nice to him it sent SungMin to rock his world.
Sighing slightly, he held his lover tightly, wondering if he could deal with being the blood-father. In all honesty, if Minnie wanted him to do it, he'd attempt to do it.... Afterall he cared about his lover's happiness more than his own pride, at least enough to try and be nicer to others....
Blinking up at him, he cocked his head and scooted closer to the other, wrapping his arms back around his shoulders. Eh, the idea of having sex with a woman was a little...odd, for him, but he could always have KyuHyun there with him, as awkward as it would be. Tempo and JiYong had had two litters, and they were both very weary of women, right? He'd heard a lot of stories about surrogates...it couldn't be too hard once they got going.
"I can do it," he reassured, laughing a bit at the man's words. He was so funny, thinking no one liked him or was attracted to him...he was adorable, and SungMin knew he'd have to chase people off of him every now and again. Kissing his lover's mouth affectionately, he purred and nudged their noses together with a smirk. "I dont mind...but I want you to be there..." He murmured, folding his ears back.
SungMin was pretty open about sex. He was childish otherwise, but hell, why bother being so nervous and stuttery about something like that? Especially when it came to them having children.. "A little threesome might be fun, you know~"
Coughing a bit... but this time not one of his sickly coughs, but rather one that shocked him a bit. He smirked slightly at his little sex deviant of a partner. "You want me to be there? Well... then whoever this lady is... I fear she might stay around..." With a sly wink, Kyu had to admit that although he'd rather have the girl be gone with.... if this was the plan... the female would have to be one wild lass and one heck of a lucky person if she was going to get Kyu and Sung in one night. Or maybe not... cause more than likely all his attention would be to his lover... where he might secretly be envious of the girl, and her ability to have children... Or maybe not... growing a huge belly and having things kicking inside one's stomach wasn't all that great now that he thought it through.
Raising a brow, he went to kissed his lover's lips, tilting his head back a bit. Although their talk was a real serious one, it seemed as if all their previous worries were melting away. Who knew that babies could bring so much happiness back into their relationship.
Flicking his tail, he wrapped the slender appendage around the man's waist, nuzzling close and returning the kiss. "I dont think she'll stay around after the birthing. And if she does, who knows, it might be nice to have an extra babysitter when we need our alone time," he pointed out, gently setting his ear to the man's chest..listening to his heart and breathing. But now--he didn't want to ruint he mood, but he was worried. So he'd withhold his comments for now, and ask later.
"I want you there 'cause I dont wanna be the only one to suffer through a girl," he laughed, lifting his head and perking his ears when he came eye to eye with him. Smirking deviously, he poked his tongue out at him and tugged out of his grasp, reacing over to grab up his bunny to hug him in apology for dropping him so suddenly. "This means we have to go shopping...and find someone who'll surrogate for us.."
Wrinkling his nose, he rubbed his left shoulder a bit and looked at his lover. "You're such a tease... Luckily I still love you...." he mumbled while stretching. "Shopping for surrogates? Or shopping for baby stuff?" he said jokingly about the surrogates part. After all he didn't think it worked like that.... Looking around for girls and pointing at one, that would be willingly to have their children. He did bring a point about the baby stuff however. If they were doing baby shopping.... Would they be buying stuff for a boy.... or girl? And how many? Who knew how many kids they would end up having. In the back of his mind, he hoped for a reasonable amount.... Having a mountain hold of children meant he'd never get his wonderful sleep.
Chuckling at this, he hugged his bunny to him and looked up to his lover, stepping back over to him to nuzzle back into his neck. "We have to find a girl we know and trust, dork," he murmured, shaking his head. SungMin knew some people...and there were a few girls in the territory as well. So maybe they could stick close to home--but the man didn't seem to want the woman to stay after the babies were born. Which he didn't care about either way, he figured they could get help from their leaders, who had a lot of kids, and just rely on their instincts.
"Lets hope for two or three.." He laughed, "Then they'll have siblings to play with..but not too many."
Scratching his head a bit, Kyu frowned a bit. There weren't too many girls he knew now that he actually thought about it. Sure he saw them... but conversing with them... was a totally different thing. "Guess I'll have to start being nice to em.... blegh..." he said.... jokingly.... maybe... kinda... not really. When SungMin finally came up with a number, he breathed a sigh of relief. He was so happy that Minnie wasn't one of those strays that wanted to have a bajillion babies. "Two to three sounds nice.... it means I'll have a chance to influence at least one of em! Nyah!!" he exclaimed, tossing up a lil peace sign. In his mind, he figured they would still take after Minnie... with his young spirit and all.
Smirking when he brought up influencing one, SungMin shook his head and bumped their foreheads together gently, kissing his lover's mouth afterwards, "You cant make them play games all the time," he mumbled, smirking, "But I think it'll be a nice family activity," he liked playing games. Except he always lost. Which frustrated him. But other than that, he just wanted to be around Kyu more, but now...he kind of missed his gaming habits.
Tugging at his shirt gently, he smiled and began to lead him towards the bridge for the island in the middle of the lake, "I'll have to introduce you to some of the girls...they're really nice.."
Snickering at his Minnie he nodded, "Of course I won't let them play games all the time... Less game time for them means more game time for me..." So proud he was of his logic.... As Minnie lead him to the island, he followed behind his lover, much closer. "Mmm.... if you say so...." A little afraid of what to expect, he claimed one of Minnie's arms and held tightly. He had to admit it was quite nervous... It was one thing having to communicate with the female specimens.... it was another to having to deal with one because they wanted children..
