But- [He falls quiet, turning his concerns inward. People always said he was a freak, that the people in the circus troupe were too strange to be liked. Ciel said they did horrible things. Being an outcast doesn't always mean it's deserved in his mind. But...
Sympathetic eyes upturn.] I'm not well liked either, Elliot. I'm a freak. [Somehow it's just said matter-of-factly. It's just the way things are.] But I promise, I won't go without you.
[ At the sound of the word 'freak', Elliot's eyes widened. Reaching his hand out, he paused momentarily before carefully clutching one of the other's. Elliot didn't mean it that way; Snake didn't know what they had done. ]
Listen to me, I didn't mean it like that. [ --a tighter hold on that hand before he hesitantly leaned in and placed a small kiss on a patch of scales against Snake's cheek.]
You're not a freak either, understand me? Everyone is unique and shouldn't be addressed as such a thing.
His words escape him as a flush erupts on his cheeks. Immediately, two fingers wrap tightly around Elliot's forefinger, his gloves missing. Skin to skin, Elliot warm against him. He feels safe for the first time in a long while.]
[Elliot's cheeks turned red once more, feeling the head against his shoulder. The words from the other's lips made him pause before wrapping arms around the taller man to bring him closer.
For the first time in a while, he felt where he belonged.]
And as long as I remain here, I'll stay by yours too. [A small sigh, tilting his head to rest against the other's.]
[As long as I remain here... The phrase makes Snake go quiet as his eyes fall to the bedspread. Slowly, his fingers find Elliot's, forefinger hooking around the other's.]
But you're dead in your world... [It's hard enough to think about on its up, much less say it.] It you're not here, you won't be anywhere... right?
I don't want you to ever leave here. [Words spill out of his mouth, lips moving faster than his thoughts. His finger links tighter.] I don't want to go home, I want to stay here, with you.
[His face turns into Elliot's neck, mutting his speech.]
[He didn't know how to exactly respond to that. They couldn't control how they came or how they left. But Elliot would prefer to stay where he had a purpose in life again.
Also, to stay with who made him feel important. Another sigh as he fell short on words, returning the tight grip on the connection between fingers.]
[His eyes shift up, looking into Elliot's. Very slowly, he leans up, pressing cool lips to the side of the boy's jaw. It feels strange, to express affection, but... Elliot did it first. And it feels right. His hand squeezes the one in his grip tightly.]
Tomorrow's your birthday, right? The day that celebrates you?
