Welcome to Atlantis Academy! (Lia && Chokuro)

Azazel gasped, hand lifting to rest against his forehead. "OH no! You've seen right through me!" He grinned, wrapping both arms around the male and kissing his temple. "You look beautiful." He countered, leading him to the table and pulling the seat out for him to sit down on, pushing it in with a warm smile.
 
Taking the offered seat, Tomas slowly began to realize that the longer he was in Azazel's presence, the less nervous he became. He gradually was becoming comfortable and falling into the date quite easily. "It looks really good, Az..." While he wasn't very hungry at all lately, Tomas felt that it wouldn't be much of a sacrifice to eat such delicious food. Besides, Azazel had been thoughtful enough to make sure his portions were small enough.
 
Azazel smiled warmly. "Thanks! I totally didn't cook it." He chuckled some more and then looked over at the male. "One of my servants had. I told him what! He did the how." He grinned." If I had made it, you'd be eating charcoal or under cooked everything ending with salmonella." He chuckled some more, eyes staying to the man's form, very happy for the date.
 
He laughed, knowing it was true because he remembered when Azazel had tried to make toast for him when he first had gotten so sick. "Well at least you know your limitations. Mama still tries to cook when Papa gets mad at him." Tomas laughed a little more and began to (slowly) eat the delicious food that was set out for them. Overall, the rest of the night went well. There were still a few awkward moments here and there for the half demon, but he'd managed to push them away without too much of a fuss and he even was able to eat most of what had been on his plate (which was a feat in and of itself). Tomas sat back in the chair, stuffed. "Thank you. It was really good."
 
Looking at his plate, Azazel grinned brightly, his eyes sparkling. "Oooh! Look at how much you ate." He grinned, his plate having about what was left over on the other's. "The cooks are really good." He stated, smiling more. "Maybe they'll be nice and make you more things if you want them." He offered and then leaned over to peck his cheek. "Want to go for a little walk?"
 
Laughing a little, Tomas nodded and stood up, falling into step with Azazel as they walked. "I don't think I could eat anything else without blowing up," he answered. The half demon maneuvered it so that he was walking very close to the other male, liking that he could feel the heat come off of Azazel's body. That was always a comforting feeling for him. "So how'd you find this place?"
 
Azazel grinned. "I wandered." He stated, shrugging his shoulders some more. He turned to loo at him, smiling some more as he did so. He looped his arm around the other's elbow, holding him against his side with a warm smile. "I'm glad you like it.' He stated, hips swaying from one side to another, humming happily as he walked.
 
They walked a bit more, not really talking about anything in particular. They never really had to talk about anything to enjoy their time together, and Tomas liked that their friendship was such an easy one. As the pair headed back towards the clearing where the table was, Tomas stopped walking and tugged Azazel to face him. "I'm really sorry that my relationship with Sal hurt you," he offered quietly. "I... I didn't know."
 
Azazel paused, looking down at him and he laughed lightly. He cupped the other's chin, wiggling his face a few times. "I know you didn't, you nitwit." He teased, kissing his forehead before he took a hold of his hand, lacing their fingers as he began to walk once more. "You did not mean to. And... I was jealous that you actually started to eat because of him."
 
He pulled his hand away only to situate himself into Azazel's side, wrapping his arms around the demon's waist while resting his head on the other's chest. "But... You saved my life," he answered softly, eyes closing as Tomas trusted his friend to guide him. "Doesn't that trump getting me to eat?" he asked, trying to make the other feel better about the whole thing.
 
Azazel paused to look down at the other. He pushed his fingers through his hair, wanting to see his eyes. "No. Forcing you to drink nutrients and strapping you down if you try anything does not seem to be on the same level as you willingly eating and smiling for him." He sighed softly, continuing to push his fingers through his hair. "I just want you to myself. I'm selfish that way."
 
Looking up, Tomas shrugged. The incident with the bathtub was on the tip of his tongue to bring up, but he figured that it wasn't the best of times. Instead, without thinking too much about it, the white haired male leaned up and brushed his lips over Azazel's, blushing deeply as he did so. "Everything that you did for me trumps him getting me to eat in my book," he answered softly, tucking his head back into the crook of the demon's neck.
 
Azazel perked up when the other pressed their lips together. He smiled, positively beaming. "Must you flatter me." He purred. "And make me just feel all mushy?" He grinned, his arms slipping around his hips and he leaned closer to connect their lips in a deeper kiss.
 
Tomas laughed and poked Azazel's stomach. "You are mushy," he teased. The half demon gasped a little, though, when their lips met again. He wasn't surprised at the kiss-he had known what he was doing when he initiated the first-but this one had sent sparks of energy through him that he hadn't been expecting. Tomas stepped away after a second, trying to get his head back on straight. It was another minute until he spoke again, stepping back into the circle of Azazel's arms. "You take care of me," he answered seriously. "Sal just tried to distract me." Tomas looked up to the other's eyes. "He didn't care that everything was still lying beneath the surface like you do..." The teen smiled and leaned up for another kiss.
 
Azazel smiled more at the other. His fingers slid over his form, enjoying the feeling quite a bit. He kissed his temple softly, eyes closing while he held onto him, swaying their forms from one side to another, grinning more. "I will always take care of you," HJe whispered while his lips traveled over his neck before clearing his throat and pulling away. "Sorry. Carried away." He purred, grinning a little more. His fingers slid along his form, enjoying his feeling quite a bit.
 
He shuddered softly with the kisses to his neck and jaw, pressing their bodies closer. "I know," he answered in his own soft whisper, that thought alone causing Tomas' mind to reel. Why hadn't he seen how wonderful Azazel made him feel before? Of course, it could have had something to do with being whisked away while unconcious and told that you couldn't see your family again... Tomas shook his head at the thought and leaned up to press a kiss to the demon's cheek before turning and beginning to walk again. "Thank you for tonight."
 
Azazel grinned, watching him walk off before quickly scurrying after him. "At least let me walk you to your portal! What kind of date would I be if I let you go off alone?" He chuckled and kissed his temple once he caught up. His hand linked with his and he started up a portal back to his home. "Have fun. Tell your brothers to go on their merry marriage. Or postpone it. Not like I'm going to take either."
 
Tanner groaned. He had no idea where he was, or how long he'd been there, but he knew that he was in pain from the ends of his hair to the tips of his toes and everywhere in between. The blond had tried to crawl out of the deep alley that he was in, and had even tried to call out to Rune, but the pain had taken over and blackness found him yet again before any kind of thought could form.
 
Relic was freaking out. His lover had not been home. Had not contacted anyone. He had walked home without him from the school since he needed to do a few things at home. What? he could not even remember. all he knew was that he was flipping shit and sent every able bodied person in the household out to find him.

He currently was stalking through alleys and everything else that he could think his lover would be. When he finally saw him, his heart broke. "TANNER!" He yelled, running over to his love and collapsing to his knees beside him, tears welling in his eyes. "oh my baby!" He whispered, leaning down and kissing his temple. "come on. I'll get you home." He whispered, fingers pushing through his hair, cell phone out and calling Jupiter. the moment the man answered, he yelled: "MY HOUSE NOW YOU USELESS TWAT!" He slammed the phone closed then scooped his lover up. Gripping him tightly and quickly rushing to his house.
 
Tanner groaned, still unconscious, as Calder rushed in behind Relic. He'd taken the other side of the street and had heard his brother-in-law's scream. "Shit!" The blond rushed over and was kneeling on the ground, checking for a pulse. A very faint wave of relief passed through him when he found it, but knew that they didn't have much time. Calder stood and helped Relic to his feet, calling for Rune and the car in the same breath. "Come on," he urged, bending down to gently lift Tanner into his arms. "Open the door?" he asked Relic, sliding into the back seat with his friend once he had.

Pulling up just as the other car did, Jupiter swore under his breath. "I swear I have never met a family who gets the shit kicked out of them more." He directed Calder into the house and quickly had him get Tanner upstairs and stripped on the bed, barking orders for wash cloths and water, and whatever else he needed.
 
"Shut hte fuck up!" Relic growled, pushing Jupiter into the house. The tears were still streaming down his eyes as he did so. "put him in the living room!" He called out, running past the doctor and over to where his husband was. He fell to his knees once more, taking a gentle hold of his hand, needing to be there for him.
 
Shaking his head, Calder moved over and gently lifted Relic up and out of Jupiter's way. "Let him work, sweetheart." The blond didn't pull the other too far away, and was glad to let Tomias and Nikkos and Rune be Jupiter's go-fers. It was agonizing to stand there and watch, knowing that Tanner was probably in pain and would be severely damaged. Nearly twenty minutes later, Jupiter sagged forward and tried to collect his thoughts before turning to Relic and Calder.

"He's going to be fine...physically. The bones are mending, and I've given him pain killers." The god looked at Relic and gave him a sad look. "He was raped, Relic." Calder gasped, wishing for it to not be true. "Viciously. Repeatedly. I... Prepare yourself, because I don't think that he will be the man you married for a long time."
 
Relic paced the whole time, moving from one side to another. his converse thumping against the hardwood floors. When Jupiter came to him, he literally froze. His eyes wide as he stared at the doctor. Heart sinking. Head spinning. "What?" he stepped forward, knowing it was not his fault, but he was theo nly one there for him to yell at. "How... HOw could that be?! He's part ME! He... He has the strength to... to fend..." He then pushed past the doctor, literally pushing him aside, and ran back to Tanner. He collapsed beside him, eyes closing as his head rested against his shoulder. 'My love my love... My poor, poor love.' He whispered, eyes once more filled with tears and he could not control himselfb efore he was in quite the fit of sobs.
 
Jupiter took no offense, and he waited a minute before moving over to sit next to Relic. "I can only guess, Relic. But my exam tells me it wasn't just one... Or two." The doctor's voice was calm and soft, the exact opposite of what the other man was feeling, he knew. "Tanner fought. He got some good chunks of flesh under his nails, and bruised knuckles. I just... I think he was severely outnumbered." Jupiter gave a sad little sigh. He didn't have anymore information to give. Standing, he looked to the others in the room. "I'll take a guest room upstairs for a while. Sebastian should be here soon, I'm sure."
 
Relic collapsed beside him, sobbing even more while he listened to the man. "Oh my love." He whispered once again, holding his hand and nuzzling into his form. "Let's get you to bed."His voice cracked and he stood, pulling the man into his arms and cradling him like a child. He kissed his head quite a few times while walking up the stairs, barely managing to keep it together enough to get to the room. He made it up the stairs but then the sobs came and his knees buckled. He fell, gripping Tanner tighter and crying into his shoulder.

Rune quickly ran after him, taking the blond and walking to their bedroom to tuck his brother-in-law in. He then took Relic and kissed his cheek. "Shower, change, and I'll bring up a comfy chair.' He knew it would be bad to sleep beside him for the injuries as well as the psychological damage."
