Unmarked Grave

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin *nods my head*
Oh, that sounds nice.
*laughs and shrugs a little*
Jinnie that's not very logical to buy me a phone just to annoy me.
*hums a little and nods*
Yeah, it was a little wolf that resembled me as a small pup.
*gently squeezes your hand and sticks close to you*

@Taeil Mmhmm~
Sorry. Human thing *chuckles softly* you uh... buy tickets for a chance to win money.
I would if I was rich. Then I'd call and annoy you all the time. *grins at the thought*
Aww, really? Did you sleep with stuffed animals or something?
Right.
*lights a cigarette and takes your hand with my free one, leading the way through the forest*

(I'll make a room for his apartment lol)

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin I'm sure you won't.
*chuckles a bit and hums*
Lottery?
*tilts my head in confusion and then blinks*
Oh no no you really don't need to buy me a phone or anything like that.
*nods my head*
Good, that's good.
I like sleeping beside people anyway, and I've been a bit cranky in the mornings because I don't have something my teacher gave me to sleep with anymore.
*chuckles and smiles at you, taking your hand and standing up*
Alright, lead the way because I have no idea where to go.

@Taeil I won't complain about that.
That'd be cool to win the lottery or something.
I don't even know what I'd do with all that money though. Besides buy you a phone and hire a maid *chuckles softly*
Alright, alright, I won't. I'll stay at my place then.
In that case, /we'll/ stay at my place. I hope the mess doesn't bother you...
Thank you. Our little secret...
*smiles softly imagining cuddling till we fall asleep*
*slowly stands up and dusts my pants off before offering you a hand up*

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin Heh, good!
You're gonna end up with a lapful of Taeil a lot then.
*chuckles as well and shakes my head*
Maybe so
Good.
*pouts a bit*
You're not allowed to spend that money when you don't have to.
I'm staying with you tonight, and that's final.
*laughs and nods*
Innocent until proven guilty and all that; it's gonna get me in trouble one day, but oh well.
I won't tell him, don't worry.
It's alright, we'll go back to your place, and I'll sleep with you so that you won't be alone.

@Taeil You're starting to make me like them. It's not something I'm really used to.
*groans in response*
Maybe if I make it rich *chuckles softly*
I won't.
Mh. Depends on what hotel you stay at and what room you get. *shrugs*
Wow. You have a lot of faith in people...
But you're right. I won't...I know how it feels...
Good. Don't tell Zico anything. He hates me enough already...
I don't think... mentally... I could handle sleeping in Kuro's territory...

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin I allow cuddles, lots and lots of cuddles.
*laughs and shakes my head*
That's bull, and we both know it.
*grins at your whining and coos again*
Heh, I don't need you paying something like that; it's fine.
Don't worry about it for now, okay?
*chuckles a bit*
I understand, but hotels are really expensive, aren't they?
I don't know if that's a good idea.
*nods my head*
Of course, you said you wouldn't force yourself on anyone, and I believe you.
Also, you're not gonna hurt me in any way, and I trust that too.
Zico isn't in Kuro, so unless I tell him -which would be a very bad idea- then he won't know.

@Taeil What /do/ you allow exactly?
I'm just hot...*says even though it's cold outside*
*whines, hating how you can make me so embarrassed like this*
That's true. I'd pay it if I could. But my own is expensive enough
Thanks I guess?
Not sure I want to be in Kuro territory
Maybe I'll get a hotel room...
You'd really come home with me?
*hugs your arm*
You trust me that much?
Zico would probably kill me

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin Well I won't allow that, so too bad.
*nuzzles your cheek with mine*
I can feel and see the heat in your cheeks, and you stuttered aww so precious~
*chuckles and pokes your cheeks*
Yep~
*laughs a bit*
Well I don't have the money to pay a monthly bill.
*smiles at the nuzzles and pets your hair*
I'm still sorry about it.
*thinks for a bit and bites my lip*
Well, you can stay with me if you'd like.
Or I can stay with you, but I promise that you won't be alone.

@Taeil Possibly. *chuckles softly*
S-shush... I am not.
*puffs my cheeks out*
Of course you will...
No problem... man wolves really need cell phones.
*nuzzles your shoulder*
No your fault....
*shakes my head and sighs softly*
We can go...
I don't wanna go home tonight... I don't want to be alone...

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin 30 is really not old, what do you wanna die before you hit 30 then?
*chuckles a little and pats your pink cheeks*
Aww, you're blushing~
I'll continue to think that, yes.
*smiles and nods*
Okay, company is always better for things like that anyway, thank you.
*tilts my head a bit but doesn't push for any more information, knowing that even this much was a lot*
Ah, I'm sorry about that, Jinnie.

@Taeil 30 is old. I don't wanna get old...
*listens quietly, a light blush forming on my cheeks*
If you say so...
You can think what you want about me...
*doesn't want to admit to anything, even if you might be right*
*clears my throat* well um...
Next time I'll go with you... not good to go alone...
*nods softly*
My dad was a doctor... he got... wrongly accused of a crime. Something terrible...

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin I'm not even 30 yet, so I can't be old, hush it.
*shrugs a bit*
Despite your best efforts to seem like you don't care and just wanna sleep around, I see something else in you.
You're kind and caring and sweet, and though you have issues with trust, once someone has it, I can tell there's not a lot you wouldn't do for them.
I want you to trust me; even though you're a big , I trust you.
*chuckles sheepishly*
Yeah, I know, but I wanted to explore, and I didn't want to wait for someone to want to go with me.
*blinks in surprise at you*
You used to be in Kuro?

@Taeil But you are oldddd I'm not a babyyy
I don't know why... you'd want to be my friend...
You should be more careful..it's dangerous for omegas to wander around by themselves...
*glances at the graves again when you ask if I want to leave*
*sighs softly and touches one of the stones*
They were... in your pack.. you know...
We were... in Kuro...

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin If you can call me an old fart, then I can call you a baby.
*smiles softly as you nuzzle my shoulder*
It's not out of pity, I assure you.
You're my friend, so I care about you and your well-being.
*laughs at your look*
I do that a lot these days, yeah.
Should we head back, or do you want a bit more time?

@Taeil *grumbles softly*
Not a baby...
*rubs my head against your shoulder*
Oh... d-don't.. pity me... please...
*gives you a weird look*
You were... exploring... by yourself...?
*rests against you, a little drained from crying*

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin I do say so, you baby.
*coos softly and snuggles you a bit more*
I like you of course; you're my friend, and that's why I'm nice.
*hums and shrugs*
Well, I wanted to explore some more areas, but I kinda got lost.
*chuckles sheepishly*

@Taeil *is glad to hear you at least had fun with me on our day out*
If you s-say so... o-old fart...
*curls against you, relieved to hear that you're not going to press the matter as I'm not sure I trust anyone, even you enough to confess my past...though... maybe I can tell you a bit- I think as I slowly start to calm down*
W-why are you...being so nice to me?
*loosens my grip on you and wipes at my eyes, trying to stop crying*
Why are you h-here in the first place?
*looks at the woods, wondering why you've wandered so far from your pack's territory*

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin *smiles again and rumbles happily, humming in bliss*
I'm glad you had fun too.
Heh, to you it was boring, but learning with my teacher was fun for me.
*cuddles you and nods my head*
It's okay, you don't have to tell me.
If you want to, then you will; I won't push it.
It's okay to be scared; I'll be with you until the feeling goes away and then some.

@Taeil * your ears, lip quivering softly, not feeling like I don't deserve all this sweetness*
I-it was... fun for me too...
*smiles weakly*
Because you've had a b-boring life... *sniffs*
*burrows into your chest as I sob*
It's t-too much...
*shakes my head, clinging to you*
I'm s-scared...

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin *smiles as you immediately start petting me, letting my ears pop up and twitch*
I know, but when you took me out, I had so much fun, and I learned a lot about human culture.
I've never had that much fun in my life.
*now starts petting your head as you sob, humming soothingly*
Not anymore; you won't be alone anymore because I'm here.
*nods my head*
You probably don't let anyone understand.
Help me to understand so that I can help you smile again.

@Taeil *instinctively moves my fingers, petting your hair gently and liking the familiar feeling of you nuzzling my hand*
A-all I did was h-hit on you and take you out...
*still doesn't believe you, feeling like you're heavily exaggerating if nothing else*
*hugs you tighter, now sobbing into your shoulder*
But I'm a-always alone...
*clutches your bicep as if you're the only thing I have to hang on to*
No one u-understands
*bawls uncontrollably*

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin *nuzzles you and places your hand on my head, nuzzling it too*
Shh, you are; you're just a bit rough around the edges sometimes, that's all.
You've done a lot for me, making sure I didn't miss out on how fun life can be.
So I didn't tell a single lie.
*smiles softly and hugs you back*
You're stuck with me now; we're friends, so you're gonna have to deal with me now.
I promise I won't leave you to be alone.

@Taeil *feels my breath hitch as you start talking to them, shocked, though I probably should've expected you to pull some cute, sweet like this*
*shakes my head, feeling like all the good things you're saying are so untrue*
*starts to crying hard when you tell them I'm wonderful*
N-no...no I'm not. Don't l-lie to them...
*sniffles and wipes at my eyes*
*lets out a little sob when you say you won't let me be alone because that's how I always feel. So very alone*
*squeezes your hand before turning to hug you*

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin *smiles a little as you sigh, knowing you at least weren't going to throw me out*
*blinks in shock and looks at the graves before gathering my resolve*
So you're Jinnie's parents then.
It's nice to meet you; I hope you know your son is doing well; I know he must miss you, but he's still playful too.
He's certainly a handful, as I'm sure you know, but I just want you both to know that he's still a great friend and that... That you both did well.
Thank you for bringing him into the world; things wouldn't be the same without him, and I know for sure I wouldn't be the same.
Your son has taught me a lot about the human world, things I never would've known without him; I had a lot of fun, and he even gave me my first Christmas present.
He's a wonderful man, and I hope you know that he'll be just fine; watch over him well, and I'll help you two out as much as I can to make sure he's not alone at all.
*smiles and takes your hand, squeezing it softly*

@Taeil *sighs softly when you refuse to leave, knowing it's too late; you've already seen me crying and of course now you want to help, but why? No one's ever cared before...*
*I've never been here with anyone else, and now I wonder if you're going to start coming here more often*
My parents... they're my parents...
*feels you cuddling against me and sits still*

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin *sits down beside you and lays my head on your shoulder instead*
I think you may want to be alone, but that's not what you need.
*looks at the bouquets and puts two and two together*
Gravestones, who are they, Jinnie?
*snuggles myself closer since it's pretty cold and I didn't want you freezing*

@Taeil *jumps when I hear your voice, startled but also embarrassed; I can't have you here, not this place. You can't see me like this, no one can*
*sits up, keeping my hair down, grateful that my shaggy hair hides my eyes*
*clears my throat, refusing to look up at you*
Nothing. I'm fine, Taeil.
Please...
Please leave me alone. I just want to be alone right now...

@☪ᵇ ‹ Jongjin *decides to go exploring again and hoping I don't get lost but quickly ends up not remembering where I came from, sighing and pouting*
Ugh, that figures...
*walks aimlessly and catches your scent, tilting my head and following it, at least hoping you could tell me how to get back*
*sees you crying and blinks in shock, immediately moving towards you*
Jongjin?
What happened; are you okay?

@Taeil *leaves my apartment and trudges down the sidewalk, eyes downcast, feeling useless, worthless, and just utterly alone, needing to get away from everything for a little while*
*goes into a flower shop and purchases two bouquets*
*walks a long ways, finally ending up at the gravesite of my parents, a place I visit often when I feel like this*
*kneels down in front of the stones and sighs, placing the flowers on them and leaning down until my head touches the stone*
*slowly breaks down crying*
