tune

Kyle was quiet for a moment, just enjoying the comfortable silence before he spoke again, "You know… I've never had a real friend before, so… thank-you, for not being like the others."

"I…. I just know what it's like to be different…" said Arthur, "So much so that no one really cares about you… or it's easy to get left out"

"I'm glad someone understands." He whispered.

"Yeah…" Arthur sighed, snuggling further under the warm blankets. How do I tell him….. that I have powers too….. and…. that I'm only half human…..

Kyle was enjoying the silence until his phone buzzed. He frowned and slightly a little so he could reach it.

Arthur let him move, hearing the buzzing. "Someone call you?"

Kyle shook his head, a small frown on his lips, "J-Just a text…" Unfortunately, it wasn't the best text in the world.

"You ok?" he asked, slight concern appearing in his voice as he watched Kyle's body language.

"Hm? Y-Yeah, I'm fine." He replied quietly. He didn't know how his bullies got his phone number but the message brought up his insecurities and it hurt… a lot.

Arthur pulled him into a tight hug, "Liar…" he said quietly, "I can tell you're lying…."

Kyle placed his phone on the ground before hugging him back, "It's nothing, really. Just me overreacting about it."

Arthur reached over him and grabbed the phone, giving him a quick look before checking the text. "Rats" he growled softly when he saw it, quickly he blocked the number, and pulled Kyle into a tight hug, feeling oddly protective of the other…

Kyle closed his eyes tightly, afraid the waterworks might turn on if he didn't. Every text, every comment or push in the school hall way was like someone twisting a dagger another inch and it was slowly killing him, he had scars to prove it, too.

Arthur hugged him even tighter, Wanting to make him feel safe again. You're not the only one with scars….. he thought, knowing full well what was happening.

Kyle buried his face in the crook of Arthur's neck, wanting to just stay like this and hide away from everything and everyone. But Arthur made him feel something other then lonely and he wanted to make that feeling last.

(FLOOOOOOOOOFFF!!!!)
Arthur felt himself going a bit red, but he pulled Kyle closer, tighter, ruffling the other's hair.

(They're so cute, honestly it hurrrrts)
Kyle felt himself smile the slightest bit, a few of his thoughts disappearing. He felt as if this felt right, but then again, he could be going crazy.

(YAAASSSSSS)
Arthur smiled when he felt Kyle calm down, "Better?" he asked quietly.

Kyle nodded a little bit, but he didn't move from their position, "A little…" He whispered.

Arthur pulled him closer, eventually beginning to hum quietly. His tune was random, discordant, but oddly soothing.

Kai relaxed even more, his features and body no longer tense. He couldn't think of anybody who made him feel as safe as Arthur did.

Arthur smiled when he felt Kyle relax completely, never letting his tune cease as he pondered over the fact that he felt so protective of Kyle.

At this point, Kyle could probably fall asleep again, which was unusual as he could never take naps but then again, he'd never felt his stomach flip at the thought of being held but a guy before.

Arthur soon stopped humming, happy to stay exactly where he was, and wonder what it was about Kyle…. that-that made him so likeable??

For the first time in a long time, Kyle felt happy. And he wanted to make that feeling last as long as he possibly could. Arthur was a… miracle.
