Welcome to Atlantis Academy! (Lia && Chokuro)

Without the other coming to the door, Ezekiel got freaked out and worried he left. He opened the door, stopping his barging when he saw the other sleeping. He sighed softly, slowly stepping forward into the room. He sat down on the chair he had sat in all the while the other was sick. Bringing a knee to his chest, he pressed his head into the top of his knee and he bit his bottom lip some more.
 
He wasn't really sure how long he slept, but finally Scorpius began to stir from his slumber, groaning a little at the awkward angle of his neck. "Who thought I'd ever wish to sleep on the ground again?" he muttered, rolling off of the side of the bed with a soft thump and groan. He moved in slow motion still, but eventually climbed back to his feet to shuffle into the bathroom. The blond stopped, however, when he saw Ezekiel in the chair and the night before dripped into his mind. "Shit."
 
Zeke looked up at the other, staring at the blond for a while. He bit his bottom lip and kept his eyes to the other. He slowly set his feet onto the ground, straightening his form and he tried to think a little. "Scorpius ... I don't want to be suffocating." He said simply and he straightened a little bit more. "I do not want to lose you.. but if you feel that you need to leave I ... I won't stop you, but I cannot promise I won't check up on you.'
 
It took a minute for everything to sink through the sleep that was still clouding his mind. Eventually, though, Scorpius nodded and sat down at the edge of the bed, still piecing his thoughts into words. "Please, please understand. Those... I've been on the streets-on my own-for as long as I can remember. They're my home, what I know. And while they're scary to you, they're where I'm most comfortable." The blond looked up and reached out, tugging Ezekiel to sit down next to him and linking their arms together. "Just because I'm not staying doesn't mean that I don't have feelings for you, or that I don't appreciate everything. But I couldn't adjust, Ezekiel. After most of my life on the streets, I could never adjust..."
 
Pulling the other onto his lap, he kissed his cheek. He looped his arms around his hips and he hugged him a little tighter to his form. He then leaned back and looked up at him, feeling awful. He bit his bottom lip some more. "Can ... Can you try?" He asked, looking up at him. "Little steps." He added, hands resting upon his hips and he trailed his fingers along his sides. "Like ... just coming back every so often... or let me take you out to dinners and stuff?"
 
"I..." He wanted to say 'no', that it wasn't that easy. But Scorpius stopped himself and forced himself to nod a little. He knew that he couldn't be the only one getting his way. He had to give a little, too. "We... I have to be safe about it... I can't let anything happen to you, or your family." Scorpius leaned forward to tuck his head into the other male's neck, wrapping his arms around Ezekiel's middle. "You have to promise to not come looking for me if we haven't set up to meet... It's not safe."
 
He gripped his shoulders, hugging him to his chest and he kissed his head softly. He trailed his hand over the man's back, wanting to make him feel comforted in his lap. He looked at the man and nodded. "Okay... You just have to remember my number and call me, kay?" He lifted his eyes to him and then pressed his forehead against his, sighing softly. "I ... want to be with you. But I cannot force you to just .. be with me. I know. So ... I will try my best to not just ... stalk you and follow you places."
 
It had been a few weeks since he had seen Ezekiel, but they had made plans to meet today. Scorpius was excited. He missed his friend, and wished that they could see more of each other. Of course Ezekiel would say that they could, but he knew better. The blond waved goodbye to the group he was talking to and began to walk towards the park across town, thankful that it was a nice day. It was also one of the first days that he was feeling like he was completely better. But the footsteps behind him alarmed him. He ducked into a store that he frequently went into to get warm and watched, recognizing one of the street bullies and sighing, knowing that he would likely have to stand Ezekiel up to keep him safe, and being upset by that.
 
Ezekiel sat in the park. His eyes fluttering around everything, waiting impatiently for his date. He was going to find someone and beat them senseless if he could not see him. He needed to! He missed him so horribly. He looked from one side to another before he huffed. He stood and began to search the park for him. He spotted the blond hair in the store and then made his way toward the other. Moving past the other, he headed inside, walking up behind him. "This isn't the park." He said into his ear simply.
 
Scorpius jumped a mile at the words, and spun around quickly. "You shouldn't have come here!" The blond smacked the other male's arm before throwing his arms around Ezekiel's middle and hugging him tightly. "I missed you." Sighing, he pulled away far sooner than he wanted to, but he knew they were being watched. "We have to go. And away from the house."
 
Zeke chuckled and hugged him back tightly before he let him go when he had. He looked down at him and he sighed softly. "All right. Come on. I'm not letting my date fuck up because of some douche bags." He said simply and then took his wrist to lead him out, being sure he was beside him as they left before he let go when they were out. He turned to him and smiled lightly. "How have you been? You look better. I like that paper isn't darker than you."
 
He laughed a little and shrugged. "I'm okay. It's not so bad when it's spring and summer and fall...and not raining." He knew that Ezekiel worried about him, and wanted to appease his worries but it was hard because the other male had only known privilege. "Like camping...in the city." Smiling up at him, Scorpius guided Ezekiel around town, walking and enjoying the conversation. "Did your parents finally get away?"
 
He groaned. "You give me gray hairs." e mumbled and then kissed the top of his head. He then relaxed and sighed some more. "They had." He informed him, nodding while he began to walk around the town happily.

A couple hours later, the other stopped near the park again and he looked down at him. "Can I at least get a kiss from you, or no?" He asked, eyes staying with his form, not really wanting to leave without one.
 
He opened the door without knocking and stepped into the large house. Looking around, Mako wandered through the home, not paying too much attention to where he was truly going but knowing what he was looking for. The little pink haired boy poked his head into a few rooms, huffing when he found them empty. He had been told this was his grandfather's house, so really he didn't see what was wrong about wandering through it uninvited, and was happy to do so. Humming a little he finally found the man who matched the pictures.

"GRANDPA!"

The little boy launched himself across the room and then attached himself to Tomias' leg, hugging him tightly and refusing to let go.
 
Tomias was happily flirting with his husband, propositioning him for a lovely night in bed just the two of them when he heard the voice. Turning, he froze when he saw what was now attached to his leg. His eyes went wide and he stared at the little boy. Why was there a boy attached to him? AND calling him Grandpa?! He looked past him, thinking that maybe a son or daughter forgot to tell them something and when no one was there, he turned to his love with pleading eyes.
 
Nikkos, who had been wrapped around Mias and flirting right back, had been pushed out of the way and he eyed the child critically. He hadn't heard the door open, and their own kids usually called out to them just in case they'd lost their clothes... Unsure of what was going on (but glad that the word that was called out was 'grandpa' instead of 'daddy'), Nikkos crouched down to the boy's level.

"And just who are you and why are you in our house?" he questioned gently. He only got a tongue stuck out at him. "Little brat, eh? Definitely related to Tomias then. And that means that he can deal with you." Standing, Nikkos gave his husband a smug smile and moved to start dinner.
 
Tomias whined when his love left him, whimpering softly before he sighed. Turning to the boy, he leaned down against his lap to look at the pinkette. "So. Whose child are you and are you sure I'm your grandpa?" he kept his eyes to the boy, truly curious. Pink hair ... He did not quite remember anyone like that. He knew Relic had someoen with pink hair a long, long time ago, but not him.
 
"Yes!"

Mako smiled up at him and bounced on his feet a little and nodded. "Mommy said that daddy's name is William..." He paused for a second. "Or is Mommy's name William..." He couldn't remember, but it didn't really matter. He was with his grandpa! "Mommy said that you would give me candy! Can I have candy? And a new dress? I got this one dirty." Mako pointed to some invisible spec of dirt.
 
"Uh ... How old is ... Mommy?" He asked, staring at the other with interest, brows furrowing as he did so. He stood and walked over to get some candy for the boy. He would deal with the dress situation later. Relic would definitely have a ball with this one. He seemed to fit right in already. He sighed softl.y. He was far too confused right now. And conflicted. And a little freaking out.
 
Nikkos snorted in the corner, knowing the mistake that his husband was making with the candy, but handed him a lollipop anyway and continued to listen.

"OLD!" Mako answered straight away, loudly. "Well not YOU old because if you're mommy's daddy then you have to be a LOT older than Mommy but he's really old too!" The boy grabbed at the lollipop, jumping up and down to get at it. Damn old people for being so tall!
 
Tomias arched a brow, holding the pop away from the other and arching a brow. "Mommy... Was he named after his father?" He asked, eyes staying with the other, interest clear to his features. "Or perhaps his grandfather..." he really did not know the trail of sex he left behind and whom exactly it was. He was fairly sure it was one or the other...
 
"Yeah! Other grandpa was William too! You're so smart!" Mako held out his hands and jumped a little more for the lollipop, wanting it badly and willing to continue to jump forever in order to get it. "Can I have my lolli now?!" He was getting impatient, and the little pink-haired boy huffed before starting his jumping marathon once more. "Mommy said you'd give me CANDY!" He was on the verge of a tantrum.
 
Tomias groaned. "I don't know your Mommy well. I popped him out and left." He stated, handing the pop to the boy then looking over at his husband. "Oi. Wanna meet William Shakespeare's grandkid?" He grinned and then walked over to his love to kiss the crook of his neck. His arms wrapped around his hips and he hugged him tightly. "Condoms really should have been invented sooner.' he mumbled then turned to look at the boy. "So... Why are you here? Other than candy. Did something happen to your parents?"
 
Mako shoved the lollipop into his mouth and sucked on it happily, plopping down on a chair. "Iunno," he said around the candy. "Mommy said you'd give me candy and a dress so I came inside!" It didn't matter why he was getting candy and a dress, just that he was. "When can I have my dress?"

Laughing, Nikkos only shook his head. "He's yours," he answered, looking over his shoulder and kissing his lover's nose. "He's a mini Rune and until you break him of that, you're on your own." The brunette smiled at his husband and pecked a kiss to his lips. "Good luck, sweetheart!"
 
"I hate you sometimes." Tomias mumbled before kissing him again. He then turned to the boy and held a hand out. "Come on. Let's go see Uncle Relic. He'll give you lots of nice dresses." He waited for his hand before he turned and began to move through the house, looking around and soon finding his brother. He scooped the boy up and plopped him into theo ther's arms. "Make him dresses. He's my grandkid apparently. Have fun. Return him unharmed please."
