Again Bastian a soft smile found his face. The childish action was so rare in his life, his own parents had never allowed such a thing and here his mate was acting like a proper four-year-old. "Perhaps you are right. Only it is my way to take part in my prey, I suppose you don't want me to gorge myself in you. Quick wasteful, that, from this mates point of view." He sniffed and leaned back against the tree, his red eyes closing as he rested.

Kalin watched him curious, he was so serious all the time. "No of course I don't want you to eat me," he teased. He looked at the setting sun and stood. "I must get home before it gets too late."

Bastian's eyes snapped open at that. Home? Go? He'd only just met the man... against his will but damned to do so thanks to the Stars... and was not ready to see him leave just yet. In fact, he felt slightly panicked at the thought of the boy not in his sense range.
"Where is this home you speak of?" his voice came out harse and that wasn't his intension. "Is your... home," he pushed aside his discomfort and said what he meant to. "Is not your home with me now?"

Kalin watched him, he did not get why he was freaking out. He looked to him then reached for his hand, "My parents will worry if I do not arrive soon. My home is near the capital, in the woods around it." He looked to his eyes at his question, "We just met I cannot live with you till my parents meet you and I get to know you more."

Bastian's brow furrowed and his hand recoiled. He was confused, he had always been taught that a mate's rightful place was at the side of his other half. He felt hurt and such a thing was simply ridiculous, he didn't bear emotional pain! And yet...
"I...I don't understand," he heard himself say, staring into the other man's face, searching for the physical dislike the man must hold for him if he were so eager to leave him. "I was taught... you're supposed to be with me always."

Kalin watched him he could feel the pain and quickly reached for his hand trying to sooth him. "My parents," he whispered his other hand reaching to run through his hand, "They don't believe in mates. And they would not want me just to up and leave one day...I can't hurt them like that." He watched his eyes knowing he was hurting him by rejecting him, "W...why don't you sneak into my room? We can have a sleep over..."

Bastian shivered involuntarily at the feel of his mates palm against his. "Stars..." he muttered softly, how could his parents not believe in mates when the bond was so overtaking. Then, "No. I will not hide. You will introduce me as... well, as something. But I will not go about climbing in windows and skulking about like a common Majikadai."

Kalin nodded and pulled away slowly. "Fine. I'll introduce you as my friend. And you can stay over tonight," he murmured sighing. He smiled then watched him. He ran a hand gently over his face. "Close your eyes. You can only come home with me if you can catch me. I get a five second headstart..." He wanted to play this game, he liked playing games.

Bastian did as asked and waited the few seconds. He supposed the boy had given some leeway with his parents. The least he could do was accomodate him in a mere game. Still, he did the man one better and waited ten seconds before launching his body from the tree and weaving through tree after tree.
Kalin was fast, he'd give him his due. But this was Bastian's territory, had been for years, and that gave him home court advantage. Coming up behind the man, he grabbed Kalin from behind and hefted him up as he ran the last few steps he was forced to in order to stop.
"Got ya," he growled and nuzzled the man's cheek.

Kalin smiled to him then giggled again. He moved out of his arms and stood in front of him just staring into his eyes. He shyly stood on tiptoe and kissed him gently. "I'm sorry about my parents," he whispered. "Maybe in a few days we can say we are dating...but they won't let you take me away if they don't know you."

Bastian was a little stunned by the intense emotions he felt at one mere kiss that turned out to be not so mere at all. It made him feel less rigid and with the want to give this man whatever he desired. To Blanserta with it, if his mate's parent's opinion was important he would stomach them for a bit.
Pulling him back, he kisses him a little deeper, a firm claiming as he reached down and took hold of the young daemon's hand. He gasped into the kiss as his body went haywire. Pulling away, he buried his face in the boy's shoulder, "I will do as you ask, Kalin." his voice was soft and he didn't sound pleased to hide but he would do it for his mate.

Kalin gasped into the deep kiss, he had not expected that. He blushed as he pulled away and placed his head on his chest. He felt claimed and it was nice, but he didn't say so. "Thank you," he whispered moving closer to his warmth and squeezed his hand. "M...maybe I could...introduce us as dating..." he offered softly. "But if I do that then they will not let you stay tonight..."

Bastian hugged the man to him. He still could not believe how quickly his resolve in not finding a mate had disappeared. Stars, he couldn't imagine a life without this man. He wanted to be surrounded by him, his scent, those eyes...
Propping his chin on the man's head, he said softly, "It will be as you say, love. Tell me and it will be."

Kalin smiled then gently pulled away again. "I have to get home now," he whispered. He took his hand and led him through the woods to his home humming in happiness. Once they were almost there he let go of his hand then shyly pulled him into another kiss, "Don't try anything in front of them ok?" he pleaded softly.

Bastian nodded slowly, feeling rather young and carefree at holding such a secret. "I will do only what you ask, Kalin."
