Runaway - Open Thread!!

[dov]

"I don't know..." He mumbled and lay down. Dov pushed his small frame against Kezro and took his hand, pulling his mate's arm around his waist. Dov closed his eyes and sighed, the feeling of Kezro behind him made him feel at ease.

"Do...do you think...do you really think I'll be a good parent?" He asked softly, glancing at Kezro over his shoulder.

Dov blushed and placed his hand over his stomach feeling the buldge. "Do you still find me attractive?" He breathed, his voice soft. He turned a bright red as he felt his large stomach. It made him wonder if anyone, even a blind man, would be able to find him attractive like this.

[kezro]

kezro smiled slightly and nodded to both questions. "I do...," he said, lacing his fingers with the one's Dov had splayed over his stomach. "You're absolutely lovely and our child will think so too..."

He paused and bit his lip, sitting up just enough to look at his mate properly. "That is...I mean...You don't, don't really hate our child...do you?" he asked hesitantly, feeling the small bulge under his and the younger boy's hand.

[dov]

Dov shook his head. "No, of course not." He whispered and frowned to himself, closing his eyes for a second. He hadn't meant it, he had just been so angry that he had blurting things out. "I was just angry...I didn't know what I was saying."

He bit the inside of his cheek and wrinkled his nose. "I'm sorry I hurt you..." He whispered and felt his eyes burning with tears. "I didn't want too.."

[kezro]

Kezro leaned down and kissed away Dov’s tears. “It’s fine…I don’t mind as long as it wasn’t true,” he said as he pulled away, wiping the rest of the wetness on his mate’s cheek off with gentle fingers.

He sighed and laid back down, curling tightly against the younger boy. “I suppose some of the blame should fall on me as well though…I really haven’t paid much attention to you lately, have I? I’ve been off at work…”

Stroking a hand down Dov’s back, he thought about the problem. He really had wanted to wait for Christmas when he’d have more of it to give his mate the money, but he supposed that it might be better to use what he’d been saving now…Hm.

[dov]

Dov turned around in Kezro's arms and sighed. "I...I love you Kezro." He whispered and kissed the other quickly, pulling away before Kezro could react.

After a couple of minutes Dov giggled. "This bed is really uncomfortable." He decided, realized how he had gotten used to so many things in Kezro's house over time. "I like yours better."

Dov brushed his fingers through Kezro's hair, his heart clenching as he thought of how much he had hurt his lover's feelings. An unsure frown crossed his face when he wondered if it was going to happen again. He didn't want to hurt Kezro again...

[kezro]

Kezro smiled at Dov then. "I love you too. And you know, it's our bed; not just mine. Want to go back to it?" he asked.

He noticed the frown on his mate's face and felt the pain in his heart. "Really...Don't worry," he said as he sat up on the bed, ready to go back to their own.

[dov]

Dov smiled, looking at Kezro as he sat up. He pushed himself up and kissed Kezro's cheek, a child-like kiss which made Dov blush softly. "If I ever get mad again...or act crazy..." Dov started and pushed himself off the hard bed. "Just slap me."

Dov chuckled and walked towards the bedroom door, glancing at Kezro over his shoulder. He smiled happily as he saw the other looking at him. "Ok...?" He whispered and turned around, leaning against the door.

[kezro]

Kezro smiled and raised an eyebrow at his mate. “I don’t think I could bring myself to hit ya. I’ll be sure to do something, If you want…Just not sure what yet.” He chuckled.

“I could just make you sleep in this hard bed, but…I’d probably join you. Hm…Troubling. Perhaps I should just try to kiss you senseless.” He chuckled as he approached the door where Dov was leaning. “That should work, shouldn’t it?” he asked softly, circling his arms around the silver haired boy’s waist.

[dov]

Dov chuckled. "Yes, I think it will work." He decided and rested his eyes on Kezro's lips. For a second he hesitated but he quickly pressed his lips against Kezro's, closing his eyes and enjoying the feeling of Kezro's lips against his own.

He wrapped his arms around Kezro's neck and pulled other closer towards himself, smiling against his mate's lips. "I love you." He murmbered, his lips moving slowly against Kezro's as he said the words.

[kezro]

Kez pulled back and smiled as well. "And I, you," he said smoothly. He hugged his mate as tight as he could without hurting the smaller boy or his stomach. He then picked Dov up 'bridal-style'.

"I'm going to carry ya to the bedroom. Short walk, but hold on," he said before going out the door. He went into their bedroom and gently placed the Zercan on the bed before stepping back to survey the scene.

This was his family and the thought made a warmth fill his chest. Though they had experienced a few problems, he knew it would turn out right in the end. "Beautiful," he whispered as he crawled onto the bed himself. It sloshed a bit before calming and the half merman looked at Dov with a smile.

He softly put a kiss on his mate's cheek before leaning down and setting one on his belly. He laid down on the bed and spooned against his mate, placing an arm around the silver haired boy's package.

"Good-night...again, love."

[dov]

Dov once again found himself looking in the mirror. His stomach was certainly growing and the baby was making itself known. Dov placed his hands on his stomach and smiled, shifting his gaze in the mirror towards his lover who was still lying in bed.

They had some arguments since Dov's blow-up but everything was fine. He turned around andd walked over to the bed, sitting down on the side. He smiled down at his lover who's eyes were still closed and leaned down to press a kiss to Kezro's forehead. Then he left the bedroom, making hs way to the kitchen.

A sigh left his lips and he looked down at his body. He had certainly become heavier, but of course Dov could always use the child as an excuse. Finally Dov decided he would like to spend breakfast with his mate, in bed.

Dov quickly started working on breakfast, hoping that Kezro wouldn't wake up before he was finished.

[kezro]

Kez sighed lightly in contentment from his sleep. Why wouldn’t he be content, after all? He had a mate to spend his life with, a child on the way, and a really nice bed to sleep in. Mmm… He curled down into the pillows even more, enjoying the feel of the bed moving slightly beneath him.

He turned over and finally let his eyes drift open. Just because he was awake didn’t mean he had to get up, right? He glanced over at Dov…Only to see the other boy wasn’t there.

It took a few minutes to register. When it did though, he was all for getting up and out of bed. He wasn’t sure where the younger was, but if another bout of morning sickness had come on, he wanted to be there. After their big blow out, Dov had begun to let him help out more with pregnancy related things. That way it would be easier to deal with any break-downs on either people.

He had just started to get out of the bed, but the smell of delicious food stopped him. The half merman turned his head and smiled brilliantly as he saw his mate walk through the door, a trey of two breakfast plates in hand. “Need any help with that, love?” he asked, gesturing to the food.

[dov]

Dov chuckled and walked over to the bed. His cheeks turned crimson and he smiled a little, wrinkling his nose. "Um..." He muttered and shifted, sitting down. He looked up at Kezro, his heart almost jumping out of his chest, wondering if Kezro liked his little idea.

Sitting in front of Kezro right now made him feel like it was silly idea. He finally sat the tray down and sat down next to Kezro, pushing himself close to the other. "Um..." He started again and played with a strand of Kezro's hair. "You like it?" He asked finally, his breath hitching while he waited for a reply.

He looked up at Kezro and kissed his mate's cheek, once again blushing. Dov let his fingers glide over Kezro's cheek and down his neck, finally resting on the taller one's chest, keeping his eyes on Kezro's face.

"I really did my best..." Dov explained and smiled, somewhat proud of himself. He rested his head against Kezro's shoulder and smiled happily.

[kezro]

Kezro laced his fingers with the ones Dov had placed on his chest. “Well, your best is very good then. It smells divine, love. Thank you for making us breakfast and bringing it up here,” he said as he sat down on the bed again.

He helped arrange the tray properly, so that it wouldn’t fall over before he pulled his mate into his lap with a smile. He kept one hand joined with the Zercan’s, but the other fell onto the boy’s stomach. He placed a kiss on Dov’s white head and began to feed them both.

“You know…I was thinking about something last night, dear,” the half merman began after swallowing some food. “You haven’t actually met my life-giver yet, have you?”

[dov]

Dov smiled, leaning into his lover. Being close to Kezro made him feel happy and content. When he felt Kezro pressing a kiss to his head his smile widened. When he heard Kezro asking him if he had met Kezro's life-giver his smile widened even more and he lifted his head, looking at his mate. "No..." He started and wrapped his arms around Kezro's neck.

"Am I going to meet him?" Dov asked, trying to keep his voice even.
