We bring art to life... (Darren/Alejandro)

[Neko Scot]

Whoa. Wh-OA. Kid overload, here!

I stare at the kids; all varying in different size and colour. While most of them clambered all over Al, the rest just stared straight at me.

"Who are you?" The nearest asked.

I darted a glance at the laughing Al. "Uh...I'm Al's....Al's...." Freind? Guy he picked up randomly after changing into a dragon?

"You're Al's? Aw! Al; you found your mate already?!" The child who asked leapt upon me and squeezed me so tightly I felt like the fading bruises on my skin were suddenly fresh.

"Ow." I pushed him gently off. "No; I'm Al's freind." I told him firmly.

[mesmu]

I watch as the puppy frowns before saying, "Okay whatever... But since you found him he's more prone to being raped now you know..." And then barks a few things and everyone scuttles off.

I finally get to my feet and gently hug Darren, "Don't mind them..."

[Neko Scot]

My eyes widened. "Rape?!" I half shout. "What?!"

Al flinched. I gritted my teeth to stop the irrational panic that was surging through me. "...more prone to be raped? Huh? By why? By me?!"

[mesmu]

"No, not by you... Unless you wanted to..." I say with a shake of my head and then nuzzle up against Darren. "No, no. By others whom like guys here."

[Neko Scot]

I stiffened as his nose tucked briefly under my chin; hot air breathing over my skin. For a moment I stood there, frozen by the irrational feeling to stay. Then common sense returned, and I pushed him away, laughing weakly.

"I don't like guys, so they'll have no luck."

I hastily lookd around, tyring to find something to say. Then A question flew out of my mouth before I could stop it.

"So...YOU'RE gay?"

[mesmu]

My response is simple and easy to say, "Only for you, with you, about you... You're the only one I am meant to love."

[Neko Scot]

...What do you say to that?

I admit, I've started warming up to him ever since this morning. And my sexuality has been in question ever since. But to hear him say those words...along with his eyes burning with sincerity...

My mouth was suddenly dry. I coughed and licked my lips anxiously; suddenly hot under the collar the way he was suddenly eyeing my darting tongue. I tried to ignore it, but I could practically taste the sexual tension in the air.

I wasn't supposed to fall for a mythical creature from another planet, dammit!

[mesmu]

My eyes had been watching Darren like the sexually starved bearer I am. And, even though I don't want to force myself upon him, I find my self crossing the space between us again. Body pressing to his, lips moving to his. God dammit I want him, I want him so b-a-d.

[Neko Scot]

Al's lips were moving over my frozen, unresponsive ones as I stood still in shock.

His lips were warm. Soft, too. And it's been so long since I've been kissed this gently - hell; i've never been kissed like this, ever. My last kiss was a stolen peck behind the bike shed when I was fourteen.

So it's no suprise I respond; almost choking as I slowly reach out and place my increasingly tightening hands on his hips; the warmth seeping into my entire being as he pushed his body against mine. I move my lips shyly back, a multitude of overwhelming emotions threatening to make me sing and cry at the same time.

Butterflies. That was it. A thought entered my mind, slowly but surely making itself known. I was shy and nervous but so happy at the same time-

God. I.....I like him.

I like Al.

[mesmu]

When Darren kisses back I feel my my heart race, and when his hands go to my hips my blood pounds. Oh god, I need him, need him more than anyone else.

[Neko Scot]

A fierce desperation enters our kiss. I feel it in how his tongue slips past my lips and strokes mine harshly, winning the non existent battle for dominance as he eagerly explored my mouth. A small noise, muffled but just barely audible, was heard. I couldn't tell who it was, and to tell you the truth? I didn't care.

A sudden need consumes me; causing me to push back and fight for dominance in our kiss. My hand releases his hip to grip the back of his head in a tight squeeze, tilting his head so our mouths slanted just so.

I didn't understand why I was being so possessive - when he tried to pull back I clung on; desperate to make him feel the same passion that raced through my veins. Another noise escaped - definitely Al this time - and my hand at his hip had a mind of its own; sliding down to his lower back and down-

"HAHAHAHA! Guys! Look at this! AL'S KISSING HIS MATE!"

I jerk back off Al in shock, turning with wide and mortified eyes at the small child shrieking in glee.

A small terror started in the back of my mind; increasing in intensity as I looked down to the watch on my wrist.

I needed to get out of here.

[mesmu]

My entire body was just getting ready to be sexed up and all of a sudden my mate is freaking out. Sighing I cock my head to the left, "Darren... What is it?"

[Neko Scot]

I shook my head, confused. I had no idea why I had an insane urge to jump on Al, kiss him and make him groan again, but I couldn't stay here to find out. My eyes wandered of their own accord and stayed on his plump lips, which seemed to beg me to kiss them again.

"I-I need to go." I tear my eyes away to eye my watch again. "My dad will be home soon. I need to get there."

[mesmu]

"Why?" I say lowly. "All he's done for is what? Harm you? Disgrace you? Destroy your confidence?"

My words are a growl now, "I can't let my mate return to such a life. Especially not with out me by his side."

[Neko Scot]

I shook my head. "It's not like that," I try to futilely defend the man who helped concieve me. "Look; he's paying for art college. I'll be out in a few months anyway; it doesn't matter."

I step back from his outstretched hand. "Take me back, Al." I begged him. "Please. You can visit me whenever you like; I swear. I just - I can't let him take away the one thing I love."
