"Hm," Aries questions, smirking, "is that an invitation?" Laughing, they lightly punch Revelation in the gut, then speaking in another language as they turn away from him. "Du bist so dumm. Ich liebe dich." They continue to laugh, not realizing Revelation caught wind of what they said.
-
I chuckled and looked into their eyes, smirking all the while. "Perhaps it was. Glad you took initiative.", I laughed. Hearing what they said, I inwardly smiled, but externally smirked whilst I smoothly responded. "Und ich liebe dich, du Idiot."
-
Zacharius stops mid-chuckle, turning back to face Revelation with their eyes wide open and cheeks burning. "You—I—how did—???" Aries stammers in a loss of words, unable to believe Revelation understood them. Shaking their head, they try to explain. "I'm sorry. Maybe I shouldn't have said that. I know it was weird, and I just—I mean, we DID just meet, and—well—"
-
"Lots of things I keep secret. Knowing multiple languages is one of them.", I said, stifling a laugh. "Though I must admit. Red definitely suits you." I winked and chuckled, loving every second of this. "Tell me, Aries. How would you feel…", I gently cupped their chin with one hand and looked into their eyes as I gently pulled them in front of me with my other. ".. If I did this?", I finished softly.
-
"Maybe the way you would feel if...I did this," Aries replies, wrapping their arms around Revelation, gazing deep into his eyes. "Fun fact: when a Darkavonian meets their mate, they know then and there just who that shall be..." Without another word, Aries leans in to Revelation.
-
I felt my heart rate increase drastically as I felt their arms around me, my face heating up slightly. "I-is that so? W-well I.. I think.." Before I could answer, they began to lean in to me, my face erupting into red as I leaned into them, stopping an inch from their own lips.
-
Closing their eyes, Aries gently kisses Revelation, then lightly brushing their hand across his cheek. "I wasn't here for the first half of your life, but I want to be here for the rest of it... Besides, something tells me you're gonna need a tough partner like me to watch your back, Revvie," Zacharius finishes, firmly placing their fist to their chest.
-
Through closed eyes, I gently met their lips with my own kiss, the heat in my face rising to the highest it's ever been. As though fireworks were exploding, and a nonstop party in my head. After slowly pulling away, I gazed into their eyes as I could barely speak, but felt.. content. As though everything would be okay. "I would be honoured if you did so. And I will watch yours like a hawk. Our enemies will never know what hit them."
-
"Show me your enemies, and I will take them out. And, if you need somewhere to stay. I can help with that, as well. Please, I insist, actually. I'd rather you live with me than in danger and hiding by yourself. I can promise you it's easier to get by with money than just living from the scraps of the land. I can help you," Zacharius offers.
-
I thought for a moment, then agreed. "I may have to take your offer. As much serenity I can experience living in this tiny hut in the middle of nowhere, I would like to be in a place of comfort that won't blow down in a storm.", I sighed as I glanced to the hut's direction.
-
"Then please come with me. I'll take you to my house. You'll be safe from the harsh elements and most of your unwanted attention," Zacharius says, waving for Revelation to follow them.
-
Part of me wanted to gather any and all of my things and then go, but I decided against it, leaving behind a story of my legacy. "To new beginnings.", I thought, then said what was building up in my mind. "I'm not going to bother you, am I?", I asked, making my way to them.
-
"Bother me? Not at all. I invited you, didn't I? I just hope you're able to adjust well to m place, and I hope to make it cozy to your liking. Follow me."
Zacharius leads Revelation back to their house, passing through their home village. But, as the two walk, bystanders watch and mutter in curiosity. "What is that?" one person questions. "Where did it come from?" another asks. Aries growls lowly, irked by the crowd. Then, they turn towards Revelation. "Ignore them. They're all too curious for their own good. And I take it they're your stalkers." -
I sighed and followed them to where they lived, eyeing all of those who gazed upon us, hearing their remarks: "What is that thing?" "What an ugly man." "I hope they're executing it." I wanted to say something, but out of my respect and decency, I said nothing. Though I felt downtrodden, at least I was with someone I knew wouldn't think me as different. "No. Just random civils going on about their day. I used to help some of them, but.."
-
Leading Revelation to a stone house, Zacharius pulls out the keys and opens the door, then gestures to the inside of the home, letting him in. Afterward, Aries enters the house, closing the door behind themself. "Welcome to my uneventful home, where you may find unpolished weapons lying about for maintenance, some wood in the corner for the fireplace, and some...questionable life choices in the form of bottled drinks in the cabinets." Turning around nervously in the dark, seeing Revelation take in the sight, Aries turns the light on in the living room and sheepishly chuckles. "Don't worry, I swear I'm usually cleaner than this. I just haven't had the time to clean much. I promise I'll have this place cleaned up in a few days. But, please, make yourself at home. "
