"He's very Handsome, although I DO hope he's not as...confused as he seems. My father would be greatly displeased."

"Oh no!" He grit his teeth before relaxing, wanting to hit the boy for suggesting such a thing. "When he works late, he can come hom every exhausted and tired. I'm sure, after a shower and something to fill his stomach he will be fine." He offered the young man a cup of tea from a freshly cleaned cup, the scent of somethign delicious entering the apartment.
Rylton emerged from the shower, looking fresh, wet hair around his face, a clean dress shirt and pants on. He felt as if he should wear somethign nice, to make up for coming home so scruffy in front of guests. And after such a nice shower..
"Do you feel better, dear?" Zekwae moved back into the kitchen
"Much, thanks mother, now..." he looked back towards the other life-bearer.

He smiled prettily. "You do clean up VERY nice."
And he DID.
Vicdra was mentally drooling. And to THINK, in a week's time...this man would be his...and he would be his..and..ah!
It was so perfect...they'd have beautiful little children...and live happily and be rich...

"Um...thanks?" What else was he to say to a complete stranger? Obviously, he was supposed to know him but...
"Come now, dear, sit. You two have alot of catching up to do. Vicdra, here you are sweetie, something warm for you too. Now...I snuck out of bed this morning to come along. I am sure my mate is hungry also. Eat up, children. I will have a room made up for you." He nodded at Vicdra, before moving past his son, kissing his forehead.
"Be good," he warned carefully, before giving him his keys and leaving.
Rylton stared at the far door forlornly once it closed before his dark brown eyes flicked back to the boy.
"So....are you hungry?" He offered a smile, the pills finally kicking in for his aching head as he took a bite.

He smiled a little bit, "Not at the moment, no." he replied. "Now, tell me you haven't forgotten me? We used to play all the time, and our fathers made an agreement! Vicdra Myar, remember? If you don't, I think i'll be devastated."

He rolled it around in his mind for a minute before it clicked, and the food turned to carboard in his mouth. He set down his plate, taking a drink of his mothers tea to calm himself.
"Of course, not that you mention. Vicdra, is it really you? Jespa used to tease you all the time when you came over," he chuckled. "I would've never guessed. You've become so....um...pretty?" He tried, feeling as if he were digging a hole. Oh man.....an agreement?
"Now the agreement.,...i'm sorry. My mind is a bit fuzzy-work all night you know..?" He angled his head, putting on the sheepish look.

He tittered a bit behind his fan, "It's alright. You work so hard, it's endearing, really. Our parents arranged our mating, of course! Although how anyone could forget that... I've been looking forward to this for such a long time...." he trailed off, reaching up to run fingers along Rylton's strong jaw.

He froze. Not from the touch from....mating?!?! What.the.Hell? Oh no.....nonon, see, he was tired of being controlled by his mother and father. He'd done something amazing last night! He'd found someone important and now...
He reached up and took hold of his hand, smiling. "I'm sorry, my mind does draw fuzzy sometimes. Besides, a young kit life-giver...sometimes the enormity of what looms in the future escapes them," he chuckled. "Life-bearers are always more romantic." He knew his mother would be angered if he didn't humor Vicdra. So...humor him until he left. And dart around this nightmare somehow..
He dropped a small kiss on the back of his hand before standing. "Well then. Let me clean up here, make a call, and maybe we can spend some time together. It's been ages since you were on Mentsiquar, yes?"

His cheeks tinged a slight rose. "Of course. Entertainment, I suppose?" he questioned, eyes shining as he watched the life-giver move about the room, and tidy up a bit.

"Of cou...well, I mean, sure," he chuckled and took the dishes to the sink. He got his watch from the kitchen, calling work, brow furrowing when they cheerfully let him off for the day.
"So...where do you miss going? Remember anything on Mentsiquar that you miss?" He moved back to him. "We have a whole day to talk and...catch up." He nodded, reluctantly offering his arm.

He smirked a bit, "Of course I remember some things. Like when you kissed me," He leaned up, and pressed their lips together.

Rylton froze once more. Oh the suprises this day brought....He pulled back, hand upon a cheek. "Ah...I didn't think you would. But there must be something more memorable," he chuckled. Gods he rmembered that too...they'd been younger, mere kits still, preteens really. The last summer Vicdra had come before his visits stopped. He'd had a crush on the other, and it seemed it was reciprocated very well. Jespa had always been jealous.
He'd stolen a kiss from the boy behind the barn on his parents property. He now knew Vicdra hadn't come after that because they were bethrothed....
"Now...shall we go out?" He did not want to be trapped in the apartment here....with him...

His brow furrowed, "No. I don't. What's with you??"

"With me? Nothing. I thought maybe a day out and then tonight we could...work things out? The truth is, I have a headache, and I tend to get quite grumpy. Wouldn't want that to ruin things, yes?" He covered, placing a hand on his lower back.
"And I don't want to sleep while you're here, it would be rude so...I'm going to show you a good time," he nodded, slowly leading the reluctant man towards the door.
///Two Days Later///
Things were getting so confusing. He'd spent the last two days humoring the flirting Vicdra, and no matter what, it was not the beautiful life-bearer in his mind. It was another. An unattainable dream...He'd planned on going to see Alyvyll again-or try-but Vicdra was here from sunup until he forced him to go at night.
But today, he hadn't come. Instead, his mother had called and sent up another box of dress clothes, these ones more ornate. He was to meet them at his parents manor for something, wearing the robes. A blessing again he supposed, groaning.

"They will be here within the hour, Your Grace." the Priest said. "And if I may say so, on behalf of all of us, we are glad to see you out and about."
Alyvyll simply nodded.
He didn't feel good at all. His stomach felt as if it were trying to leap up his throat, and he was light headed and just....
When the Priest left, he reached over and picked up a bit of bread, nibbling a bit.
He had emerged from his room this morning, and had immediately been informed of his daily business, as if he hadn't been locked away, begging for the spirits to forgive him.
When the people sinned, they had the Priests, and when the Monks and Priests sinned, they had him. But...he had no one to confess to. He wasn't supposed to sin...
No.
He'd managed to somehow be forgiven, and he had sworn to himself, to never again allow himself to stray. All thoughts of what had happened three days ago were wiped from his mind.
