Alvor unsteadily counted to ten before turning around. He giggles softly and starts to search. He sees John's leg poking out and smiles as he flitters over to the leg and grabs John's ankle. "Found you!" He giggles.

John chuckled, rolling out from beneath the bed with a smile at Alvor, “You found me! And here I thought I was good at this game.” That child was just so darn cute, John loved him.

Alvor laughs and gently pushes John. "Your turn!" He squeals, his eyes bright with excitement. His wings flap as he waits for John to start counting.

John smiled, for a heartbeat just admiring Alvor. He’d never seen a child’s eyes light up like that, and he instantly loved it. John’s eyes twinkled with slight amusement before he cover them and started to count.

Alvor squeals before searching for a place to hide. He dived into the closet, hiding himself with his wings. He placed a hand over his mouth to keep him quiet.

John opened his eyes slowly after counting, smiling. He did a little extra by calling softly, “Alvor! Where are you? I’m coming to find you,” He smiled even more, turning around in a circle and observing the room. He pushed the curtains aside, then walked over to the closet, grinning as he said, “I wonder where Alvor could be.”

Alvor tried his hardest to be quiet, but had been a while since he had played. He giggles softly into his hand before quieting himself.

John opened up the closet doors with a grin, “I found you!” He chuckled, scooping Alvor into a hug. This kid… John loved him. He loved looking at that cute little face.

Alvor squeals and laughs before hugging John's neck. He nuzzles happily into John's shoulder, smiling happily. Halo walks into the room. "Looks like you two are having fun." He laughs softly.

“Of course we are,” John told him with a smile, holding on to Alvor tightly as he added teasingly, “Jealous, Halo?” He stood and walked over, still holding onto Alvor, and kissed Halo on the cheek.

Halo chuckles softly. "I'm just glad you two are having so much fun." He kisses John's cheek. "So. Shall we go eat. I hope you're hungry, Alvor." Alvor nods as he clings to John happily. He nuzzles into John's shoulder, peeping one eye out at Halo.

John thought Alvor was just so precious- a smile with growing even more on his face by the second. He carried Alvor to the dining table, a smile still on his face. He loved this kid so much…

Alvor smiles as John carries him, swinging his legs mindlessly. He nuzzles into John's warmth. Halo smiles. "You two have bonded quickly."

John nodded in agreement, holding Alvor gently, “Of course, who couldn’t like someone so cute?” He booped Alvor on his tiny, adorable nose with a proud smile on his face.

Alvor giggles loudly as his nose is booped, instantly hiding behind his small hands. Halo laughs at that and walks to them, kissing John's cheek and kissing Alvors forehead. Alvor purrs softly at that.

John could barely contain his full on grin, but he forced himself to reach over and pull over a plate of food. “Thank you for making this for us, Halo,” He smiled fondly at his fiancé, joy stuck in his heart.

Halo smiles, "You're welcome, my love." He chuckles and kisses John softly. Alvor wiggles out of John's grip and sits in a chair. Halo serves him up before sitting down across from his fiance.

John took a bite of the food- it was mouth watering, as it always was when Halo cooked. “It taste exquisite, Halo,” John smiled at his love before he looked over to Alvor, “How do you like the food?”

Alvor was quiet, stuffing his face with food. Halo chuckles into his hand softly. "I'm glad you both like it." He says happily, looking rather proud of himself. He always loved to cook.

John smiled even more, eating a few mouthfuls of that delicious food. He loved it. He loved this life so much more- he felt so much more fulfilled with Halo compared to working for the army. Even though he used to enjoy strategizing and protecting his team, things had changed since then. Now… he wanted to be with his family.

Halo smiled, enjoying his food. Alvor finished quickly, before taking his finished plate to the sink, washing it, he struggled a little, before walking back to the table and settling down.

John smiled a little bit, before asking, “So Alvor, what kinds of thing do you like to do?” He asked, finishing off his own plate but not going to wash it just yet- he wanted to listen to Alvor.

Alvor bites his lip. "I like to play games, draw, dancing is also fun!" He giggles into his palm. Halo smiled at the sight. He was just to darling. "I love to dance too, Alvor." He ruffles the child's hair gently. He giggles at the affection.

John heart warmed at that kid’s adorable laugh, he loved it. He loved Halo, he loved Alvor, he loved all of this. This was home, this was safe, this was living. “You’re too cute, both of you.”

Halo looked at John and smiled warmly, glad to be part of this family. This place he called home. He loved it. He kissed John's lips softly, taking his hand within his own. "Care to join?" He teases.
