"Well..." Luca felt a small lump in his throat. He didn't want Eru to leave, he really didn't. The poor kid looked slightly miserable, even more so when he'd doubled over. He didn't want the boy to leave, he wanted him to spend at least the night to take some time to relax and rejuvenate himself. Heck, Luca didn't even see Eru eat any of his food. Was the boy just that dead set on leaving? "What if what you're looking for is already here and you're just not looking hard enough?" He asked, trying to pull up a reason to keep him there.

Eru looked at Luca and faked a smile, "What do you think I've been trying to tell myself... but apparently, my body will not let me stay..." he replied slowly. He straightened himself up slightly, the pain dying down, "But... I am willing to stay... despite the pain..."

Luca nodded softly, feeling bad if he was forcing Eru to stay and be in pain. Be he was looking better then he was a moment ago, that was a good thing, he hoped, though the obviously faked smile seemed to indicate otherwise. The Rely put an arm around the younger boy's shoulders, holding him close for a moment as he walked back towards the campfire.
"Tell you what," he began looking at Eru. "I'll help make your stay as pleasant as possible. Tell me what you want, anything at all, and I'll go get it for ya."

Eru's cheeks flared a bit as the older boy put his arms around him. He was at a loss for words at this point. But something was wrong... or right, depending on how you looked at it: the emptiness Eru had felt, at this point, was gone. Eru made the sharp mewling laugh he had uttered a few moments before and again put his hands up in surprise.

The Reyl giggled softly, grinning as he held onto Eru. The younger boys little laugh was just so funny to him, maybe because it reminded him of what he'd done when he was younger, but that wasn't important right now. By the sound of his cute laugh, Eru was feeling better then he was a moment ago. "I'll take that as a yes," he giggled again.
Luca smiled, another silly plan forming in his head. He wrapped his arms tightly around Eru, holding him close as he picked him up, easily carrying the younger boy, and carried him the rest of the way to the fire pit, gently setting him down with another grin and a slight blush. "So, what I can get'cha?"

Eru mewled again and blew the black hair that was falling in his face out of it. He sighed, "I don't need anything... I think..." he replied. As the other let go of him, he blinked and felt his chest. His missing piece wasn't going to come now, was it? It was a constant reminder of his pain, but not feeling it was... refreshing...

"Is that so?" he giggled softly. Luca picked up the small plate of food he'd made earlier, setting it down beside Eru again, along with the mug of water. He moved behind the younger boy, setting a seat behind him before casually draping his arms around him as he watched the entertainment continue.

Eru giggled, "What is this? You're still touching me? That's a stretch..." he said. His heart wouldn't work properly in his chest, though...

"How so?" he asked, a playful smile on his face. "I'm here to make sure you have a great time and get a chance to relax a bit. If I just sat nearby, that would be rather boring, huh? This spot is much nicer."
Luca gave Eru a quick hug, outwardly returning his attention to the music, the dancing, and the outlandish outfits. Inward, he contently sighed, glad to hear that the younger boy was starting to relax a bit.

"When we met, you wouldn't even shake my hand..." Eru replied, smiling warmly. He laughed at the memory, blushing as Luca again wrapped his arms around him.

"Holding hands is different, remember?" He said, his eyes slightly glazing over, a sort of longing in them as he stared into the fire. "It's... kind of a taboo to hold the hand of someone who's not your mate. I'd have to be your destined mate to do that."

Eru smiled, "But shaking hands isn't exactly holding hands... it's just touching hands and shaking them...
Eru said, slightly confused. He saw Luca's eyes glaze over and his smile faded, "Is something wrong?" he asked.

He turned his head, looking at Eru, the light glaze in his eyes vanishing. "Oh, sorry," he replied softly. "No, I'm fine. I guess I just... zoned out there for a second."

Eru looked into the flames, "Do you... do you have a mate? Is that why you wouldn't... shake my hand?" he asked painfully. He assumed the worst.

Luca blushed a bit. It was a bit of a personal subject, but... seeing as how it was an off-worlder that has asked, maybe it wasn't so bad. "Um... no. I don't have a mate. And I said, holding or touching hands is something reserved only for mates. I guess it'd be a bit of a taboo if I did and I wasn't your mate."
