Asher looks back at his home and then at Shouki. He doesn't really want to go inside, but he would have to eventually. "Will you come visit me this time?" Asher asks quietly not really wanting to seem selfish in case Shouki would be busy. He had just lost most of his things at his stall and it was Asher's fault. So it might have been too much to ask for that. He looks up at Shouki with sad eyes when he says he was going to leave. He didn't want to be home alone, but he didn't want to keep Shouki there if he didn't want to be there. "Wait." Asher gave Shouki a quick hug before he began to back up towards his house. "Bye..." He said waving slowly at Shouki.

[I'm probably going to do a time jump here, but I'm not sure how long it will be yet. :3 ]

"Yeah....but...I probably won't be able to visit tomorrow though...." Shouki has got to get more supplies, but once he does that......he should be able to come by which he might be able to get that done tomorrow....or in a couple of days at most.. What Asher is thinking is kind of funny considering he doesn't actually want to leave, but he thinks Asher actually wants him to leave. He just hugs Asher close and nuzzles into him a bit before letting him go. "Bye bye..." He waits for Asher to get to the door before walking away.

(Okay then :3 Fine by me :3)

Asher nods at Shouki knowing that he probably wouldn't have been able to come over to visit him tomorrow. It was only right that he get his things together before he came and visited him at his house. It was like Asher was going to be going anywhere anytime soon. At least he didn't think he was, but with his mother he really never knew if he was leaving anytime soon. Asher walked slowly back to his house he turned to wave to Shouki before he went inside and shut the door. He could already hear his mother talking on the phone and he knew who it was. Though she did stop to tell him that his dinner was on the table. He walked in and ate before going to his room to sit down and play with some of his things. He had a lot of toys, but they weren't fun anymore.

It was a couple months later before Asher was able to go out to see Shouki. His mother was getting a divorce from his father and they did a lot of traveling to relatives and such. It was all just a blur to Asher when it happened. He actually got to see his father a few times in the whole mess. The one thing he did remember was to leave a note hidden on a tree outside in the woods near his house for Shouki. He didn't know if he would find it, but he told him about what was happening and why he would be gone for so long. It was nice to get back to his home when he did and his mother seemed somewhat normal and no long phone calls.

Asher had more freedom like she said she would give him. The first day he was back home he went out to check to see if Shouki had gotten the note he had left him.

Shouki just waves. He kind of wishes he could have come in, but that probably would've caused more problems with Asher's mother. And that they definitely don't need. Also, Shouki wouldn't want to cause problems for Asher like that anyway. Shouki actually kept his promise and did come by. He also saw the note, which made him very sad to tell the truth. He's currently sitting up against a tree near Asher's house, munching on the apple. He's gained a little bit of weight since Asher last saw him since he's actually been eating since then.

When Asher walks up to find Shouki against the tree he couldn't help, but get excited. His tail was wagging extremely fast now and he ran over to him. He didn't stop in time and so basically tackled him rolling on the ground with him in his arms. "Shouki!" He said with a big smile when they stopped rolling and he was on top of him looking down at him. "I missed you!" Asher black hair had gotten a bit longer while he was away so it was in his eyes a bit. He smiled down at him before he hugged him.

Shouki squawks as he's pretty much tackled. He wasn't expecting that at all. He just hugs Asher back, nuzzling into him a bit. "I missed you too." He missed him last time too. "So...how was it?" The not being at home thing and all that. He knows what the notes said, but he hopes there's some story there. He likes stories...and he hasn't been out of this area in a long time. He reaches up and plays with Asher's hair a bit. "It's longer." State the obvious time is a go! Shouki's hair is also longer, but he rarely if ever cuts it....unless it becomes bothersome.

Asher smiles down at him and laughs a bit because he is so happy to see Shouki again after all this time being apart from each other. "Well, there was a lot of fighting...well not really fighting, but arguments about who got what." He bit his lip as he tried to think of everything that really happened. It was a lot to take in for him and he really hadn't been wanting to watch it all. "I got to meet a lot of my mothers relatives. I got to see my dad a few times, but we didn't talk." It wasn't that it really bother him that they didn't talk all that much. It was scary when he had seen him and he hid behind his mother a lot during it. "Oh! I got to meet my Aunt. She my favorite relative because she likes to play games with me. I got to play so many new games!" Asher tail was wagging when he talked about the games. He had really enjoyed them. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a bracelet he had made while he was gone. "Look I made this for you." It wasn't really anything special, but it was something that Asher had wanted to make for Shouki and his Aunt had taken him out to buy the things needed.

Well, if it wasn't for the wrap, Shouki's tail would be wagging as well. "I'm sorry you had to be around for that part..." Asher's father left. He should get nothing in his mind since he left willingly. No one kicked him out. He chuckles a bit as Asher talks about his aunt.....though there is a hint of sadness in his eyes. He doesn't have a family. He's got him and that's about it right now. At the bracelet, Shouki smiles a bit before leaning up to kiss Asher. "Thank you....and I'm glad that you had a good time." That he isn't alone either.

"It's okay he won't be coming back anytime soon, so I guess it's fine." Asher shrugs a bit he really didn't notice too much a difference. Though he knew he probably should have noticed. His father hadn't been around often to really talk to since he was off on business so much and everything. Asher smiles back at Shouki happy that he had someone his own age to talk to again. He liked seeing people he had never met before, but he liked talking to Shouki more than that. When Shouki kissed him he blushed and looked away for a moment before looking back. "You're welcome." He said softly. He's tail started to sway a bit. "What did you do?" Asher asked him.

"Yeah..." Shouki really doesn't know what to say to that. No clue whatsoever. He giggles a bit at the blush on Asher. "Did you know you're cute when you do that?" He nuzzles him a bit. "Mmmm....I sold stuff....then made more stuff and repeated the cycle. And I slept, ate,and waited for you. Exciting sound isn't it?" There's really nothing he wants to do. They can't go to the zoo together when Asher is there....so he works and sleeps and eats. very exciting life right there.

Asher kind of pokes him the cheek when he said he looks cute when he does that, but he still has a little blush. "No I don't..." He pouts a bit at it he doesn't know how he feels about being called cute. He knows he doesn't hate it or dislike it, but it's weird. Asher smiled down at him when he told him what he did while he was gone. It wasn't fun, but he knew that Shouki had to do it or he wouldn't have enough money for things. "Now I'm back and things won't be so boring." He said ruffled Shouki's hair a bit and smiled at him. "We can go to the Zoo sometime soon and see the Dragons you talked about." His tail speeds up when he thought about seeing the dragons.

Shouki likes the poking finger. "Yes you do." He sticks out his tongue a bit. "You just can't see it, so you don't know." He smiles a bit. "And I'm glad you're back." He missed Asher a lot. "Dragons and demon pandas! Dragons and demon pandas! dragons and demon pandas!" His tail is attempting to wag underneath him...though it isn't working too well. "Wish we could go now." He puffs his cheeks a bit....but it's really too late to go. They wouldn't have much time to try and look at everything. Even if Shouki has enough money at this point.

"Nuh uh!" He says pouting still and puffing out his chest a bit, but he couldn't help but laugh at himself. He shook his head smiling at Shouki. "I know what it looks like and it doesn't look cute." He said sticking his own tongue out at Shouki like Shouki had done to him earlier. "I'm glad to be back." He said his tail swaying a bit because he was indeed happy to be back from the trip he had been on. "They have demon pandas!" Asher asked his tail had stopped wagging and he was looking down at Shouki with wide eyes. He wanted to know what they where like the dragon before. "Awe.." Asher said pouting again when Shouki told him that he wouldn't be able to go that day. He really wanted to go.

Shouki just leans forward and kisses him again. "That doesn't help if you don't want to look cute. It just makes you look more cute." The truth, it is spoken. Shouki just bursts out laughing at Asher's reaction at the demon pandas. That face....it is just too funny for Shouki. "They're not really demons. That's just how I describe them....the first time I saw them.....they looked like demons to me." Shouki uses his fingers to turn Asher's pout into a smile. "It would close soon after we got there....we wouldn't be able to see everything in what time we had. And you would like to see everything right?"

Asher is surprised by the second kiss so soon and he blushes again, but kind of hits Shouki playfully nothing too hard. He shrugs when he tells him when he tries to not look cute it makes him look cuter. He didn't know what to do then. "I'm not cute..." He mumbles under his breath as he looks away. He looks back when Shouki begins to laugh at him he tilts his head at him and frowns at him. He frowns deeper when he tells him that he wasn't serious about them being demon pandas. He hits Shouki a little harder than he did last time, but it was still playful. He is blushing now to because he fell for what he told him. "That's not funny." He said to him with a frown. When Shouki uses his fingers to turn his pouting face into a smile he mouths his face so he can bit his finger and he grins at him. That's what he deserves after he tricked him at least that's what Asher thinks .

Shouki chuckles a bit at the blushing. "Hey, you don't hit when I kiss you." He's still smiling though. "Why do you keep hitting me?!" He's starting to make the chibi eyes. "They looked like demons when I first saw them. So they're demon pandas." He stares at the bitten finger. "Oh, hell no." He flips them almost instantly so he can be on top. He leans down quickly to kiss Asher's neck before he nibbles/bites in revenge for his finger....and to see Asher's reaction. That's a reason too in the back of his mind somewhere.

Asher when he tells him he shouldn't hit him after he kisses him. "I can to." He says quietly as he looks down at him. He was about ready to apologize about hitting him when he say Shouki's eyes. He really couldn't stand a chance against them unless he looked away in time. Which he hadn't looked away, but look straight down at them. He bit his lip not really wanting to give up so easily. He lets out a yip when Shouki moves them quickly and he doesn't know what to do. He closes his eyes when he feels Shouki close to his neck and then kisses and bites it. He squirms a bit and makes some weird noises not knowing what else to do. He is blushing of course and it's stronger than it was before. "Shouki..." He says as he squirms a bit.

"A kiss isn't violent though..." Now what comes after the kiss might be a bit violent in theory. Shouki didn't intend to bite at first....buuuuuuut....once he was about to nibble on the other...it kind of became a bite for some reason. His subconscious told him to. He stops the biting when Asher makes some weird noises. He just licks at the bite area. He doesn't know where these urges are coming from, but he isn't very good at resisting it obviously. He's blushing a bit as he's doing this. "I.....didn't mean to bite like that...." He says before going to scuttle away a bit.

Asher's heart is racing and he doesn't know what to do when Shouki licks where he had bitten him. He knows he feels weird, but he doesn't want it to stop. It confuses him and he closes his eyes and just stays there. He is a bit surprised he Shouki stops and moves away from him. He raises he hand to his neck and presses his hand to it. He sits up, but looks away from Shouki blushing a lot. He didn't know what to say to Shouki after that or what he was suppose to do. "...It's....okay...." Asher says looking down at the ground still holding his neck and blushing. He really didn't mind, but he didn't want to say that and sound awkward. That would be too embarrassing for him.

Shouki is freaking out a bit internally. He can't help it. He didn't mean to do that and he has no clue why he did that at all, but it's too late to take it back and all. And he kind of liked doing that to Asher though he won't be saying that out loud if ever. He's curling up a bit on himself while he's blushing to hell and back. "I'm sorry.....I didn't mean to. I....don't know why I did that. I really don't." He curls up tighter. "I'm sorry." He means it too...though he would do it again.

Asher looks over at Shouki though it's kind of timidly because heis still unsure of what to do. When he sees that Shouki is curled up and blushing a lot he smiles bit, but not a lot. He crawled over to him and kind of gave him a hug, but ended up wrapping himself around him. He didn't want to see Shouki down or unsure of himself like he was. Asher knew he did that a lot, but he didn't want Shouki to be that way too. He liked Shouki the way he was. Asher didn't know what he was going to do next, but he knew he had to do something. He burrowed his face in Shouki's shirt before he said anything. He knew he would be blushing so much after this and he didn't want Shouki to see. " It's okay....because....I liked it...." He didn't want to say it all that loud, but he knew he had to say it lound enough for Shouki to hear him. He was extremely embarrassed now after that.

Shouki can't help it. He's embarrassed that he acted that way...even though he wanted to do that. He squeaks a bit as Asher wraps himself around Shouki. He just wraps his arms around Asher as he burrows into his shirt. After Asher's words, he kind of wraps his legs around him, and nuzzles him. He's softly purring as well. "Really?...you liked it?" He hugs him tightly before kissing the top of his head. "So you're not mad at me or anything?" His tail has freed itself from the wrap, wagging a bit.

Asher is glad that Shouki isn't acting like he was before and that he is getting back to normal. He liked that they were so close and he liked Shouki's purring to. He stayed where he was still wrapped around Shouki. He didn't know what to say because he couldn't seem to find his voice. So he did the only thing he could manage and that was to nod his head to say yes to his question. He had liked it though it was hard for him to say so, but he did like it. When Shouki kissed the top of his head he nuzzled into him more. "No..." Asher managed to say to him though it was quiet.

Shouki just makes a happy noise before hugging him even tighter, his purring gets louder. "So.....if I were to do that again sometime...you wouldn't get mad or anything right?" His tail is wagging a bit, hopefully like. "I wonder what other things you like...." That has a bit of a perverted tone to it....though Shouki didn't fully mean it that way. It compasses that and many non-perverted things. "You....might....want to hide that from your mother though....I don't think she'd be thrilled by that." He whines a bit softly. He could see her throwing a fit over that bite mark.

Asher likes that Shouki's purring gets louder and he hugged him back. "I wouldn't get mad." He says to him well into his shirt where his face still is. When he hears what Shouki says next he blushes again and is glad that he can't see his face because it would have been bright red because of that. He didn't say anything to it because he couldn't find anything to say and he knew his voice wouldn't work right if he tried to talk. When he mention his mother he places a hand over his neck. He hadn't thought of that. "Oh no!" He kind of begins to panic at the thought of her getting upset with him over it. "I can't let her see it!" His hearts racing at the thought of her yelling at him about it and demanding to know who did it. She would go crazy if he said Shouki.
