A soft tail brushed past pale skin tentive hands reaching out and moving blond hair from blue eyes."Why do you always have to sleep outside? Your gonna catch a bug you know? Sniffles for yas Bad." Saint smiled laying down next to Pen. The sun had long past set and the fireflies glittered around rhythmically lighting and disappearing into the twilight once more.
"What do you care. Your out here too." Pen muttered rolling over, his white t-shirt sticking to his torso slightly as the heat from the day settled into the earth,"You don't even have shoes on."
"Don't Need Em' " the red head replied happily his voice ending on a high note as he sprewed out on top of his friend affectionately,"You've....Gained some Poundage..."he mewed pressing a hand into Pen's side pulling at the cotton cloth before giggling.
"Get off me ya moron." Pen muttered not really attempting to get the other off,"If anything yas the heavy one." Saint sat up letting his tail ruffle in fake irritation as he pouted folding his arms at Pen's comment.
"Your just asking to make me an-her-rex-Iac arn't you!" he kidded his irish accent slipping as he tried to pronounce a word a little outside his vocabulary. Sitting up as well Pen sighed scratching the back of his shaggy head and looking at his companion.
"Saint. Yas such a idiot."
"Glad you noticed."
Grinning at each other the teenager simply ruffled Saint's hair and got up stretching his legs and looking over his shoulder at the cabin on the hill.Moss hanged from the eves as the little cabin sat softly in the shade of a willow. The broken shingles and shutters made it look almost delapatated but it was home none the less. Without Treegon around to do the house work Saint and Pen has been neglecting it. They weren't even sure how to fix half of the things.Sighing again, his shoulders falling as he looked at his childhood home his ears also drooped thinking of all the things that had happened in the same little home since he was little.Saint's hand landed on Pen's shoulder turning him around so that they faced each other."Cha d'dhùin doras nach d'fhosgail doras (No door ever closed, but another opened-Gaelic) He'll come back..."
"What? Next Month? Or the next?We've been here for almost a year......We know he's not coming back!" Pen pushed Saint's Hnad off his shoulder and hugged himself. He knew that his words where making Saint upset but he needed to hear them,"You read the letter too. He's not coming back. We need to..."
"No! I want to Stay Here!! Gra, Dilseacht, Cairdeas!!"(love, loyalty, friendship) Saint yelled getting emotional as Irish Gaelic started to come from his mouth. He always started speaking different languages when he was angry or stressed. It just made Pen have more of a headache.
"Saint! Will Yas stop! I mean It! Come here!" Wrapping his arms around the other man Pen tried to keep Saint from sobbing. Treegon had been called off to the council a year ago and had never come back. Months later they received a letter and a small package containing Treegon's Possessions. He wasn't coming back and Saint wasn't taking it well at all.
"Saint I miss him too....But we need to move on okay? What Would the old Man Say if he saw yas all Snotty and Gross like this Huh? Come On. I haven't cried yet.Just calm down."
"I cry enough for both of us then! Ciamar a tha thu...How are you. How do you do that?" Saint was caling down sine he was speaking english again.
"I just...Don't think about it okay?" Pen said the red head turning around in his arms and snuggling against him. He found it so odd that he towered over Saint, the thirty something year old barely reaching under his chin as he pressed his forehead to his chest.
"But why don't you think about him? Don't you care?"
"Saint....Just Breathe for now. It's gonna hurt like hell but you know what he would say to see us like this huh? Come on. Don't yas cry like that." Pen felt his face blush when Saint was cuddling against him. It was always so awkward around the older man. They were friends, brothers even, but Saint....Was always so Affectionate and emotional it made Pen wonder if the other Demon thought diffrently of there relationship. Then again it was in the other's nature to be over affectionate. He always had been.....
"Pen....Pen....Penster.....Ello?" Saint's voice brought Pen back to reality. He didn't even notice the small kiss that was placed on his check. Rubbing the place that something had touched Pen looked down into green eyes still red from crying.
"Saint. Come on. We'll go tomorrow."
"Go? Go Where?"
"I dunno....Somewhere different. It' not healthy for us to just stay here. The house will be here when we get back anyways."
"Welll....Alright I guess....But...Does that mean I have to leave me button collection?" Pen shot Saint a look and Smiled, his blode hair falling back into his eyes.
"Sit boy. They'll be fine without you for a little while." walking into the tiny cabin his tail wagging softly behind him Pen laughed,"besides, Imagine all the buttons outside waiting for you."
"DUDE! SERIOUSLY!" Bouncing slightly Saint followed his ears twitching Happily as he followed Pen into the Cabin and started to pack,"So that means no on the buttons right?"
"Saint..."
"Please?"
