Chath, couldn't believe he had slept in, he had meant to get up extra early today so he could do his training, then shower and then get together items for the picnic he was having with Ligeia. So he skipped his run, showered quickly and then dashed down the steps a towel still wrapped around his waist as he gathered some of the close to reach items into a cooler. Bringing stuff like pop, freezes and a random assortment of treats his mother made, he really wasn't clear on how much he should bring. Or what Geia liked. So he brought four diffferent flavors of pop and juice if he didn't like pop and then ice'd tea if he didn't like those either. The freezes he basically threw in the entire box hoping one of the flavors would be good. Elcairs....and all sorts of things were piled in and ice...lots and lots of ice. To keep things cool of course.
His hand still on the towel to make sure it didn't drop down, he could still feel the water dripping from his hair down his back. That reminded him ....dashing up the stairs and back into his room he found his spray bottle and then dashed back downstairs. Filling it up with water as it was almost empty he then placed it in the cooler as well. He didn't want himself passing out like last time. It would be too embarrassing for words.
Glancing at the clock he noticed it was drawing closer and closer to the time that they were suppose to meet, he ran back upstairs and into his room he had gotten some newer clothing and had decided that he was going to try them. Slipping off the towel he put on some underwear, breifs to all wondering, and then pulled on his long pants, they had some nifty buckles under the knees. They were black. He always wore black. Now his shirt was somewhat new. As in it was a new fishnet, but it looked fairly similar to his old fishnet. Only major difference was the holes were a tad bigger and there was an interesting weave on the one side.
Slipping it on he ran a brush through his hair messily and then ran back down stairs. Keir wasn't being very helpful as usual, the black was resting near the front door as if being 'watch dog' for the house.

Ligeia had run into an unexpected problem upon packing up everything into the picnic basket that he had prepared for himself, Chath, and the dragons... it was rather heavy. Almost to heavy for him to pick up. He shifted back and forth on his feeth as he moved along towards the door the basket almost dragging on the ground in front of him. Well this would teach him to stuff it as full up as he had. He just... had started to put things together and then added more and more and more to the basket as he found himself going: Does he like this? Would he like these? Maybe some of that and this? Then he asked Vorel what they should bring for Keir and the Frost, it was kept separate, wrapped in a lot of plastic wrap then put in a small cooler that he had to carry out as well. Once he got out the picnic basket.
Inside it contained all of the picnic sorts of foods one would expect. Sandwiches, salads, chips, different dressings to go the salads, then chips, plates paper luckily and the cups were too, plastic silverware, and then napkins, two jugs one that contained water and one that had some juice in it. He wondered if he forgot anything that would be needed... hopefully not. He set the basket outside next to Vorel who was waiting patiently then headed back into the house and got the cooler and the blanket that sat with it, he then returned out to his dragon's side. He looked everything over then at his dragon, thoughtful before he went back inside to grab something else.
A short while later they were ready everything having been lashed down to Vorel in a way that wouldn't bother the dragon's flying then they were off heading for Chath's place, they were going to meet him and Keir there before heading to the park.
*****
Ligeia touched down first followed by Vorel who was much more careful in his landing since he had a bunch of stuff on his back. He then shifted back and forth before sitting down, "Ahh... break time." The dragon said with a happy sighing sound. Good, good. This wasn't bad weight wise but it felt odd, the boxes had no give to them like when carrying Ligeia or one of the other kids, they shifted and moved with him. The box was just... a box. He laid down in some shade and watched as the owl boy brushed himself off, seeming to be preening. Such were birds though he figured not knowing that the owl was maybe worried about how he looked.
Geia headed towards the door after looking himself over. He didn't think that he looked to bad today. He was wearing his bracelet which matched well with the piercing he had in his nose, both the same pretty silver color. He was wearing a modified tanktop that had a colorful, happy flower on it, to balance out the slightly girly shirt he had on shorts that came up to above his knees and above where the fluff on his legs ended. He gave himself a once over again before shaking his head, nothing to worry about. Chath had seen him dressed in girly clothing and 'bishonen' clothing, it was all good the middle ground sort of clothing shouldn't make any difference.
He lifted a gloved hand up and knocked on the door.

Chath had finished putting the last dessert into the cooler when he heard the knock at the door. His face lit up, like a puppy who was happy his master came home. Shoving the last thing into the cooler he slammed the lid shut before he ran for the door, nearly tripping over Keir's tail, that somehow managed to accidentally get in his way. . . before finally grabbing ahold of the door knob.
Swinging the door open his grin plastered on his face before he realized once again...this was a date...with...a guy. He felt his face flush instantly as he looked over Geia, who was wearing a rather odd assemble, that managed to compliment the girly and manly side of him. He was of course pleased beyond words that Geia was wearing the bracelet he had given him.
"Hey Ligeia." He said finally in greeting, toning his happiness down a bit, it was then that he noticed something different. A peircing. Not that he meant to, but he stared at it for a long moment before coughing and turning his head aside. "You got your nose peirced? Recently I hope otherwise I really am too oblivious for my own good." he said with a laugh.

Ligeia couldn't help but laugh, "Its new, got it a couple days ago." He said lifting a hand up though didn't quite touch it. The sore had gone away but he didn't want to risk getting germs on it or something. He lowered his hand again then smile, "I was told it would help to make me look tuff." He wasn't sure if he believed it or not but after getting it he had been in his first fight... so maybe?
"Vorel has all the stuff I made do you need any help carrying anything?" He asked of him.

Chath tilted his head and started to wonder who is was giving Geia all these strange ideas....
"I...thought you looked great before." he said a bit bluntly and then noticing that fact waved his arms in front of himself. "Not that it doesn't look good, I just mean...ah...well..nevermind." he finished weakly rubbing the back of his head.
"Er..I have a cooler I will go get it." he said glad to change the subject abruptly. Turning he hurried back into the kitchen and gathered the cooler into his hands. Stopping he thought over some of the comics he had read recently that were his sisters...they kinda helped..he guessed. They gave him a different insight on male male relationships anyway....weither or not it was a good influence he would only find out.
Shaking his head he moved back to the front door careful to note where the dragons tail was, though Keir was now standing looking rather eager to go outside.

Ligeia couldn't help but smile again, Chath was so nice. Other people seemed to want for him to change, to look more manly, to look tuffer, wear this, don't wear that. Chath was one of the first that had said that he looked good as he was. How he looked when he dressed himself without thinking about all the advice that he had been given. He waited for him to get back with his cooler, "Thank you Chath, for what you said before it was... just thank you." It was hard to be one own self when you were getting all sorts of advice from all around you that said instead you should do this, this, or this.
He gave a flutter of his wings before hurrying to the door to open it to make it easier for Chath who had the cooler and Keir who lacked the hands that would be able to work a doorknob... at least as far as he knew. Vorel had never worked a door before so he was only guessing that all dragons would have a problem since they lacked a needed thumb.

Chath felt his face flush, he looked away and swallowed, was it really that great what he had said? He had said the right thing? Sounded like it, Ligeia had thanked him.
"I don't see why you need to change..." he replied more groughly, his voice seemed to be going through those changes all young boys go through, probably once older his voice would be deeper, it seemed to go on an off lately. He couldn't help but think Geia was cute. Even for a guy the way he acted was adorable . Unfortunately all his dating advice had come from make believe stories, comics....especially shojo manga were probably the worse thing he could of turned to for advice.
Going outside he saw that Vorel was already carrying a bunch of stuff on his back....dear god were they going on a picnic or running away to live on a mountian? He wondered breifly, the thought caused him to laugh outloud. Though...he realized no one else had read his mind he explained.
"looks like we have enough here to run away together." he stated outloud and hen went silent as he realized afterwards the meaning of his words, his face went hot.

"I don't either... well aside from not wanting to completely confused anyone else like I did you but..." He made a motion with his hand. He'd rather just go about that his own way, "Not planning on anymore more piercings though... they hurt." He knew he shouldn't say that since he was sure guys didn't admit to things hurting. At the same time not all guys had holes punched through their nose so they could put a metal bit in it...
He turned to look over at Vorel who was rising up to his feet, "We can tie that onto his back too if you want. One more cooler should be fine right Vorel?!"
Vorel gave a huff, "I've become packmule?" He asked of his partner.
Ligeia nodded, "But only for today." He told him then looked over to Chath, "Run away together?" He asked then giggled, "I think we should be a little older before we elope don't you think?"

Chath nodded his head, it was probably for the best that Geia didn't get anyone else confused as he had. He still found that embaressing. Placing the box down he strongly stated, "Well dress whatever you feel is most comfertable when you are around me. Since well...I know now, you should be able to be...you know..comfertable with..me.." he first of his sentence was strong as if he truely wanted that the second part...showed his nervousness with the whole situation. He wasn't sure what was expected on the first date. Did they have to kiss? Hug?
His mind had wandered onto the various senarios that could and probably be unlikely to happen (insert the x rated scenes cut out from Zyanya's yaoi collection here) and jerked his head towards Geia as he realized he was speaking to him. Blushing he looked to the ground forcing himself to laugh although nervously.
"Y..yah guess we are a bit too young..." he stated and then opened his cooler and took out his water bottle. Spritzing himself he felt a bit better. Replacing the bottle he then secured the lid and then looked to Keir.
"I believe Keir can handle it. He certainly can't fly with me on him so he might as well take the cooler." The black dragon gave a look that could kill to Chath who merely stared his dragon down and placed his hands on his hips.
"Do you want to come or not? you have to share in the work load if you do." he continued and Keir gave an angry growl before finally moving to stand beside his partner to allow him to strap the cooler to his back.
The blacks gaze snapped to Vorel as if he could completely undersant how humiliating this was.

"Alright, I will remember that for next time." He said, then turned to look at Vorel who was sharing a sympathizing look with Keir as the Black dragon was soon being forced to carry a cooler as well, "I wonder how long it would take to get to the park from here on foot." With both dragons carrying stuff they wouldn't be able to carry Chath and as much as Geia wished he could he seemed only be able to carry light weight people, normally those that were much younger and smaller then he was.
"Not to far do you think? It seemed like a short flight when we brought home Zyanya the other day." He said to Chath, maybe he would have a better guesstimate of the distance since this way his house?

Geia had brought Zyan home? A Pang of jealousy hit him. Why he couldn't be sure...why would he be jealous of Zyanya? She obviously liked Ter so it wasn't like she was a threat to his developing relationship with the owl boy.
"Walking should be fine." he managed as he shoo'd away the thoughts that had suddenly overtaken his mind. He moved to grab some rope that was at the front door and then came back and began attatching the cooler to Keir's back. Once done he looked to Geia finally starting to feel at ease.
"Which way should we walk?" he asked not sure where they were going.

Geia pointed, "Its this direction." He said, glad that Chath was ok with the walking, the only other thing he could think of was rearranging the coolers so that Vorel could carry him but that meant more weight on Keir which wouldn't be fair to the Black.
He stretched out his wings before giving them a little flutter, "How is Zyanya?" He asked before started walking, leading the way for a couple steps before falling back so that he could walk along side the newt. She'd taken a couple hits the other day, not as many as Ter but still... he worried for his friends. He wondered if Zyanya counted as a friend, he liked the idea so he hoped so. After all she was his brother's girlfriend and the sister of his boyfriend.
The owl flushed a little at the thought, he had a boyfriend. Hehe. He then shook his head to clear the fluffy thought and reached over to take Chath's hand as the newt always did to him. This was nice!

The black dragon sighed as they started walking forward. No getting out of this, and the black had wanted to spend more time with the frost dragon. So he trudged along behind the two 'love birds' wondering what would come of all this...
Chath ....ahhh...he didn't know what it felt different, he always held Geia's hands before why did this feel so...awkward? He didn't resist the hand holding though, afraid to hurt Geia's feelings and he tried to snap out of his own nervousness. HTis was ridiculous. He held Geia's hand all the time before??? what had changed? Why was he being so self concious?
He looked to Geia and blinked. Had...he been spending time with Zyanya? Without him? He then realized that Geia must of been refering to the nice black bruise she had gotten on her cheek.... she never did fully explain to him or his mother what had happened. But knowing her, she must of been in a fight.
"She is fine I suppose...though grounded due to the fact she wouldn't tell us what exactly happened to her cheek, her missing shirt and the blood splattering on her hand..." he trailed off looking out of the corner of his eye to Geia. "You..wouldn't know perchance would you?"

Vorel looked over at Keir then gave him a bit of a smile, "At least Geia packed us some yummies." He told the other dragon, there was at least that to look forward to when they got to the park. He couldn't wait! His tail swished a little just at the thought of the tastey meats one of the coolers on his back contained.
Ligeia gave a cough and looked ahead of him as he walked, "I... umm... I don't want to get her into anymore trouble." He said, if she didn't tell her mother and brother what had happened it wasn't exactly his place to do the telling was it? He wasn't sure... he was so bad at keeping secrets though, "It wasn't exactly her fault though." He did say. After all he had been the cause of the fight Zyanya and Ter had just been kind enough as to protect his honor... or something like that. It made him sound a bit like a damsel in distress but it was the truth.

Keir looked to Vorel his appearance curious. Yummies? like what? he asked wondering what kind of yummies could be good for dragons.
Chath looked away wondering why Ligeia thought he would get his own sister in trouble. "Whatever..." He stated finally with a sigh, "If you were involved I would want to know. And after seeing my sister, I don't know what I would do if you got hurt." He stated truthfully his hand tightening breifly on Geia's.
Okay, this was good right? He confessed that he was concerned, and without getting mad. Not...that Chath ever really got mad, but that was besides the point. Was it just him or was it really warm outside?
