Jason quickly showers, occasionally giving the side of the tub light kicks. He hates these plastic things, makes a mental note to have the tub at the new place a huge, black marble whirlpool. And a shower with river rock walls. He steps out, grabbing a towel to dry his hair and walks toward the kitchen. The house is quiet, for once, and he's enjoying it for a while. He pulls open the fridge and stares inside, trying to figure out what he wants.

"Whatever you're cooking? Make enough for two?"

Voice husky, soft, coming from the far corner of the room. Curled up on the floor, sitting cross legged. Eyes closed, wearing a pair of silk boxer briefs.

"You know. I don't get this meditation shit. Doesn't do a damn thing but make me scent everything in the fucking house. And when is Lil changing the rats' cage out?"

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Shuts the fridge, turning to watch Gabriel. Leans back against the fridge, smiling.

"That's why you're suppossed to light a scented candle or something before hand."

Walks over and taps at the cage, wrinkling his nose.

"Someone forgot to clean out their food dish yesterday."

[lion-passant.livejournal.com]

"Yes, cause lilac scented pard would make it all better.'

Rising gracefully, sighing as he shakes his head. "I haven't killed them, I refuse to clean up after them."

Dropping instead on the sofa, sprawling out against the corner, one leg drawn up onto the cushion, other foot sliding out over the floor.

"So, uhmmm, sorry. About lately and all."

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Shrugs and pulls the dish from the cage, taking it to the kitchen and putting it in the dishwasher.

"Sandalwood is better. Nag Champa best."

Walks back into the living room, sitting near Gabriel.

"Nothing to apologize for."

[lion-passant.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, whatever. This shit isn't working. Neither has cutting, alchol, beating the living fucking crap outta some gay basher I kinda taunted or any goddamn thing else I can think to try.'

Head turning, looking fully at Jason.

"I didn't fucking want them here. So why the hell does it bother me so bad they're gone?"

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Lays down, resting his head on Gabriel's leg. Takes his hand, tracing the lines on his palm.

"Just because you didn't want them here, doesn't mean you wanted them dead."

Looks up at Gabriel, watching him.

"You wanted them someplace safe, that's why you went after them."

[lion-passant.livejournal.com]

Fingers of his free hand going automatically going to Jason's hand, combing his fingers through those golden tresses.

"Failed them, pup. Just fucking sucks. I tried and I failed them.'

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Closes his eyes, sighing.

"You didn't, she did."

[lion-passant.livejournal.com]

"I told them I'd keep them safe.'

Not upset, just stating fact as a single finger glides over Jason's cheekbones, tracing the length of his nose.

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

"So did she. They trusted her."

Brings than hand he's holding up, kissing the palm.

[lion-passant.livejournal.com]

"Pup? Can I ask you a question?'

Quiet. Serious. Eyes staring not at Jason but through him.

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Doesn't take his eyes from Gabriel and nods.

"Anything."

[lion-passant.livejournal.com]

"Despite everything we share. All of it. You wouldn't put your love for me above being my second, would you?"

Quiet, subdued, thoughts whirling.

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Eyes wide, a worried look in them. He squeezes Gabriel's hand and looks away. His voice very, very quiet.

"Yes."

[lion-passant.livejournal.com]

"Good."

Falling silent a long moment before clearing his throat.

"You're my mate now. Soon to be my husband. And my second. Despite the wolves, this is a pard and... I want to know if, officially, you would be my Nimir Ra. I.. I want to... I need to do things right. Pard. Tight. Ready. And... And I'm fucking this up."

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

His eyes snap back to Gabriel's, biting his lip.

"Yes. And you're not fucking it up."

Sits up and turns, practically crawling into Gabriel's lap as he kisses him.

[lion-passant.livejournal.com]

Blinking, grinning madly as his lover is suddenly in his arms, the taste of him on his lips. Moaning, curling his arms tightly around his mate, purring loudly.

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Echoes Gabriel's moan, pressing closer when he starts to purr. Finally pulls away, licking his lips, grinning.

"So, what brought that on? Not that I'm not supremely happy at the moment, but ...hell, that was a surprise."

[lion-passant.livejournal.com]

Leaning in as Jason pulls back, kissing him hard, demanding once more before chuckling.

"What? YOu think I've been off hurting myself the last few days? Been thinkin. About how I want my life to be. And in the end? Mate or not? You deserve the position. Hell, you are as much alpha if not more so than I am."

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Sighs, relaxing against Gabriel, kissing his neck.

"'m so not an alpha. Don't care if I'm not an alpha, just want to be yours."

[lion-passant.livejournal.com]

"Always mine, pup. Forever.'

Kissing him tenderly, lips trailing up to his ear, nibbling lightly.

"Nothing ever changes that."

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

"Mine."

Growls low, his fingers digging into Gabriel's shoulders.

"Missed you."

[lion-passant.livejournal.com]

Sighing, smiling huge at that.

"God, missed you so much. Just... Put you through enough. Needed to work through that shit on my own. Sorry I didn't say more."

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Sits back, staring at Gabriel.

"I know, just next time... tell me."

Smiles, shaking his head.

"You scared the shit out of me."

[lion-passant.livejournal.com]

Wincing, a sudden look of contrite pain on his face.

"Oh, pup. I'm sorry. Seriously. I'm so sorry.'

HUgging him tight, kissing him.

"I was afraid if I did? You would want to go with. Or worse, I wouldn't be able to leave you."
