"It's not like they're sticking out!Well, except for my spine..But that doesn't even stick out of my skin, you just kinda see it..They're not sharp.And those ducks remind me of my room I had when I was a kid a bit too much..Let's just say once my brothers had to repaint that room for me once I had grown out of it a bit..We only repainted because of a..Er..Red stain on the wall..Let's just say my Mom was a bit cuckoo in her coconut..much worse than you." Erik said, shuddering.

Cerin felt slightly offended, "I'm not in a coconut, cookoo or othewise" he takes his hand back, blushing, Im not paranoid....I KNOW they're out to get me..theres a diffrance he thought to himsed

"No need to be offended..Everyone's a little mad." He laughed."Even me!" Erik grinned out from under his hood.

Cerin couldn't help be offended slightly, " I dont...like being called....crazy..." he kicks at some dirt, "people call me it all the time...its...rather upsetting...." he pouts.

"Aw..You're a cute kind of crazy..VERY cute." Erik laughed."Cutest I've ever seen." The zombie said, gently leaning against Cerin.

Cerin sighed, he wasn't going to get anything better than that it seemed, "alright then..I suppose...BUT Im not wearing a dress!" he wrapped his arms around Erik, without eventhinking about it, "alright?...maybe....something...inbetween.... if it will make you shut up....stupid dead guy.." he said all this, without letting go of erik.

Erik chuckled rather dementedly."Fine with me..You'll like it eventually, I'm sure..Not that I would know.But I did have a friend who cross-dressed a long time ago, he said it was refreshing to have a change of pace, to be able to choose between wearing a pair of pants or a cute, flowing, frilly skirt..He was actually the first guy I ever dated..'Cause for about the first week of us dating, I thought he was a girl."

Cerin shook his head, "your odd..." he sighed, still holding onto erik, ' w-w-wait a minute!' he let go, and backed up, his face coverd in a bright red, "s-sorry....w..we should get going shouldnt we?" he started walking twords the store again, "le-lets get going~"

"Yes, let's..Before it gets dark.With the odd events lately, I wouldn't be surprised if other corpses follow my lead.." Erik laughed."Let's just hope they're as friendly and intelligent as me, not the mindless type you see in cheesy horror movies."

((niice make him worry more))

Cerin looked up at Erik, shock covering his features "you mean...dead people dont...stay dead?" he backs away, lookingaround him, horribly worried, "oh shit...why'd I leave the house then..."

"Well, look at me.No doubt we'll be seeing at least a few others like me soon..Yay, I get to have friends who don't make awkward situations because they're all alive!" Erik laughed."I'm sure if we get any mindless ones, the police will take care of them, though..And crazy people who keep shotguns by their front door."

Cerin backed away even more, looking around himself "your...your kidding ri-right" he turned around, checking behind him. "please be kidding.." he worried, hugging himself, "I......" he stared at all the open spaces that something could come out of. "oh crap..."

Erik walked back and ended up picking up Cerin, and carrying him to the store."I'll protect you, Ceci..No need to be afraid.No one will get you." He grinned."If they try, they get their brains eaten out."

Cerin blushed, feeling awkward in the other mans arms "y-your sure?" he looked up at erik hopefully, trying to ignore all the stares, "tha...that Zombies wont attack me?"

"Look at me.Completely sane, not trying to eat your brains, able to walk at a normal pace." Erik grinned."I highly, highly doubt any others will be any worse than me."

Cerin still clung to erik "but if they do?" he looks at erik worried, "I...I wont be safe...and I'll die a horrible death and then.." he rants on several minutes about dieing.

"If they are worse, I'll protect you." Erik kissed Cerin's cheek."Don't worry..Though I don't think death is such a bad thing as you think it is, I'll protect you with all of my might if the worst case scenario ever happens."

Cerin blushed, nodding, dead people could usually be trusted...its not like most of them could get up and break their promises though...He looked up at erik blushing, and leaning into Eriks embrace "alright then..." he sighed, mostly forgetting about his awkward postion...mostly.

"ah..." he pulled away, struggling slightly "yo-you dont have to carry me! I-I'm alright really!"

"I'm not letting you run this time." Erik laughed."You're so skittish..Too bad I don't remember how to drive anymore.."

(crap post is made of crap.;w; )

Cerin blushed, "I-I wont run...I promise.." he said, not really caring anymore...Eik was strangly comfertable for a guy who should be dead...."Its jsut..everyone will seeee!"

"Aw, don't worry.. You could mistake either of us for a flat-chested girl, so we could just be a cute couple." Erik laughed."You did just move here.." The zombie kissed Cerin's cheek and grinned."And plus, your feet get tired, mine don't as easily.."

Cerin looks at erik, than at himself, "I dont know......." he relaxed in eriks arms though, all resistance gone, "oh well..I guess...its alright......then...maybe....." his words trail off as he gets comfertable in eriks arms.

Erik eventually came upon a strip mall a just a bit away from Cerin's house, and grinned proudly."I found it!" He said excitedly, setting the other male down."Let's go get us some housewarming presents for ourselves!Clothes, air beds and paint, yay!" He laughed."Unless you'd be willing to let me sleep with you, now that we're a bit more..Friendly with each other."

Cerin blushed shaking his head quickly "no-no Id be fine with buying you a bed..." He looked over at erik for a second "annndddd some cloths...." he pouted, not thrilled about being convinced to wear something cute.

"Aw, you're so warm, though.." Erik said, hugging Ceci tightly."I'd miss your warmth at night, Ceciii..I'd probably end up in your bed anyway, that's how good you feel.."
