ˋ❖ Shrieking Spa

@✞ sota f。 Instantanously, his eyes widened at the revealation and started to panic internally. "D.. disappear..?!" Junhui parroted dumbly, hands flying to grab at the male's shoulder to the point it almost hurts. It would be devastating if the one he was pining for suddenly vanishes, he would feel so lost and heartbroken; yet he couldn't help but feel sorrow for Sota, afterall who wouldn't want to know about their past? "If that's your consequence, , forget about promising I'll swear upon my life!" His orbs shone with determination, mouth set firmly into a thin line. Realising he reacted too strongly to what the reaper said, he flushed in embarrassment and exhaled, voice soft as he spoke, "It won't happen. I can't lose you."

@☾ junhui w。 He chuckles, "It would be ironic, but it is possible." He voiced as he looked at the male as he began to boil the water for the pasta and he salted the water a bit as he looked at the male wolf again. "I believe so, I have to fully trust you to tell you everything because you'd hold my own life in your hands." Sota spoke, he gave the other a small smile before he leaned to press a soft kiss to the males forehead softly. He breathed out softly, "There are certain things you'd have to promise, the most important one is, if you learn of my past. You can never tell me, if I regain one memory besides the few hours before I died, then my soul will disappear as well as my existence as a grim reaper." He voiced, eyes holding the others to show he was very serious since it involved his life to it.

@✞ sota f。 "Wouldn't it be ironic if a reaper becomes a father of a newborn?" Junhui chuckled at the thought, "There's a long way ahead of us, I suppose, and I believe we can grow to trust each other enough one day." Breath hitching when their positions suddenly changed and the edges of the counter dug into the small of his back, his eyes insantly snapped to the male's glinting eyes only to get in deeper. Eyelashes fluttering when Sota's lips brushed against his, he arched his back to press closer to the latter. Warmth bubbled in his chest upon hearing that Sota was willing to give him a chance; even though Junhui knew their relationship started off as a physical one, he still yearned for some romance. "What w-warnings?" Even as his voice shook the wolf's arms were still steady as they hooked around the male's neck, eyes bearing down unvwavering onto the other's. "Tell me and I'll always remember."

@☾ junhui w。 "Pain, I'm sure it would be the worse but just how others sacrifice to give birth. Which I never understand why someone goes through that pain for a little one." He voiced, "But youd have to be a parent to understand, right?" He asked as he was still curious on that as he thanked the other for opening the package. He peered at the wolf and his lips curved, "I know, trust is a two way street. And before I have children I need to trust you as you with me." He said as he touched the males hand and in one instant he had the wolf on the counter with a snap of his fingers. Looking into the males beautiful orbs, "I'll remember to do that tonight, my wolf. You know, you give me just what I desire and I like that. You satisfy me very well." Sota spoke lips curved before he leaned to peck the wolf's soft lips as he whispered against them, "Mm but I'm willing to give it a try to trust you. To let you know me slowly, just head the warnings i give you. Never forget them."

@✞ sota f。 His entire neck flushed as a small whine slipped out from between his lips. "I'm afraid of the pain of giving birth; and besides we've only known each other for less than a week." Tearing out the pasta from its packaging, he laid it on the table before stepping forward to curl around the male's back, fingers slipping under his shirt to dance along smooth toned skin. "You're still irresistable though," Junhui whispered against Sota's ears, hands trailing their way up to coil around his throat and giving it a little squeeze. "You me the best and I still want you to, but just like you said about trust-- it has to be mutual first before I can be willing to let you knock me up." His grasp tightened a fraction more, "though, I was hoping you'll knot me the next time we have fun."

@☾ junhui w。 He smirks to himself at the silence of the other as he began to pull out a few items and laid them out before the other. "Chicken Alfredo." He voiced, glancing at the wolf before he rose an eyebrow at the other, fingers moving to unwrap a few items. "The wife is always the modest one, the one who gets shy and blush, and the one who gives birth." He voiced, a smirk on his lips as he began to boil some water, "You do know it's simple way for us, if you want too. You just have to tell me if you do." He voiced, knowing there was a way.

@✞ sota f。 Deliberately ignoring the statement of his inner urge to mate with the male, Junhui squeezed the hand tightly, burning cheeks betraying his standoffish response. "What's your favourite? We can make that," making his way over to the fridge, he immediately fishes out the meat he found and handed it over to Sota, grinning wolfishly. "Me, the wife? Nah. You're the wife because you're the beautiful one." He flittered around the kitchen, helping the male out with whatever he could whilst standing somewhat awkwardly behind him--- afterall he doesn't really know how to cook.

@☾ junhui w。 His lips curved up at the reaction of the wolf, "Maybe, I'm sure you'd prefer if I can figure a way for us to mate hm?" He voiced, as he grabbed the wolf's hand in his to bring him closer and he looked down at the Male softly. Seeing how the Male began to lead them to the kitchen, the reactions were priceless and he laughed under his breath as he moved forward to the kitchen. Opening the cabinet, "What should I make hm?" He voiced, an eyebrow rose, "If you are putting yourself in the position as my wife. I'd gladly accept."

@✞ sota f。 "P-pregnant?!" Yanking away from the male, he stared up at him with wide eyes. Junhui felt like a six year old getting teased for wearing mismatched socks to school, raising a fist to thump at Sota's chest when he was greeted with that lazy smirk he's overly familiar with. "Wipe that expression of your face-- now you just want to test that out don't you!"
The kiss on his cheek managed to stifle his loud squawkings at the cost of making the younger male flush even more, causing him to burrow his face into Sota's chest. "I'll help you," he grabbed the male's arms to shuffle their way into the general direction of the kitchen, not wanting face the reaper just yet despite their awkward positioning. "Afterall, a good husband has to help his wife doesn't he?"

@☾ junhui w。 He rose an eyebrow at what he tugged on, before he lightly flicked the wolf's forehead gently, "I do go out to shop, but you know how I enter. I usually go thirty minutes before they close. I avoid big crowds for the sole reason that I have many souls follow me around." He replies, as he grins before he brought the males hand in his own and his free hand around the males slim waist. Pulling him forward to press against his chest, "Dont worry I'll surprise you then. Now," he paused only when he felt the kisses and the marking of the other before he hummed softly, as he rubbed the makes waist. "I wonder if a reaper can mate and get a wolf pregnant. I'm sure it's possible, do you think so?" He smirks, pressing a kiss to the males cheek as he whispered, "Now you can help me in the kitchen or if you want you can explore my house."

@✞ sota f。 Junhui glanced around as their surroundings changed, amazed. It was so handy. The male's voice pulled him out of his wonder and he quickly stashed the new fact into a box in the back of his mind, hoarding the little tidbits like precious gold.
"Oh? Does that mean that," he tugged at the hem of Sota's clothing, "this is made out of wifey material?" Winking playfully, Junhui laughed as he unliked their fingers to slink an arm over Sota's neck, bringing him down to mouth at a column of supple flesh.
"I love anything with meat so, surprise me with your best." Teeth peeking out from beneath his lips, Junhui gave a little nibble on the spot that mirrors the claiming mark on his own neck, planting unhurried kisses on smooth skin.

@☾ junhui w。 He looked at their pinkies and he chuckled, as he held the others pinky. Motioning the other out as he spoke up, "You know you are pretty darn cute." He voiced, as he walked with the Male making sure he had all he needed before they opened the door, and like how his powers worked he was already at his place once they walked out Junhui's home. Gently he looked at the other and let out a soft hum, "To let you on a little secret, for future reference I hardly eat out. I usually prefer to make my meals, so mostly home cooked meals are best." He said, giving the other a fact about him as he took the others bag and he tossed it mid air before it could even crash it was levitating in mid air. As Sota made a motion with his hand the bag and the artwork both floated up stairs to his bedroom as he turned to the wolf, "So what would you like me to cook hm?"

@✞ sota f。 The tip of Junhui's ears burnt when soft lips caressed his forehead and he preened under the praises, finding it hard to break the male's gaze despite his instructions to gather his items. The soft swirl of brown and amber flecks mesmerised the young wolf and he couldn't help but close the mere gap between them to plant a chaste kiss on Sota's lips. Inhaling deeply, he breathed in the intoxicating scent, a soft happy growl rumbling at the back of his throat. "I'll be back quickly," grudgingly taking a step back, he broke their small bubble of tenderness to dash back into his room, quickly shoving a few article of clothings into a small bag and hurried back out. He doesn't need much for a night or maybe two anyways. He slinked back into his spot beside Sota, quietly linking their pinkies together to whisper, "let's go."

@☾ junhui w。 His orbs fell to the gift the other gave him, the artwork of how he was viewed by the wolf and his lips curled up into a soft smile. Seeing the artwork, he glanced at the male and he reached out to gently pat the others head softly. "Well, you did well. This is outstanding-- I like it. Thank you, baby." He said, before he leaned to press a soft kiss the males forehead while he moved to press his forehead against the others gently. "You have very talented hands, is there anything else before we head out." He asked softly, his dark brown orbs focused on the others own eyes and for once he held a soft shade for the male as he spoke. "Get what you need, so you can stay the night." He breathed out, his breath coming out cold and gentle. He stayed looking at the Male for a good while as if searching the others eyes, into his soul as if looking for something. And unsure what he may find he kept staring at the wolf.

@✞ sota f。 He finally emerged from the room, gift securely held behind his back, catching Sota filtering through his works. A small shriek escaped his lips and he rushed forward to smack his arm. "Did I say you could look?" There was no heat in his words despite being utterly embarrassed about having someone else's eyes other than his on his stuff. He dangled between a decision of fleeing or being brave for once. Picking the latter, he brandished out the gift, voice pitching high, "For you!" It was a frame with a small canvas nestled neatly behind the plastic glass, a monotone painting of the reaper's profile with gold speckles staring at something in the far distance. Junhui had spent days working on the fine details, etching in the quirk of Sota's lip to the teasing glint in his eyes, it was his proudest artwork. "I.. This is how you look in my eyes, but now that I've seen you again, I realise no flower could ever compare to you."

@☾ junhui w。 "I dont mind a mess." He responded, as he walked in to look around the males living space to see how the other lived. Maybe pick up on his interests and things he likes, brown hazel orbs took in every detail of the artist room. Lips curved up before he noticed the small mess, but it oddly was cute. Imagining the male in there, painting or framing images which was a good image and he looked for the other. Seeing he had disappeared he blinked, but he moved forward to look at the photos the male had took, some that were set in a small pile he gently looked through them.

@✞ sota f。 Still oblivious to what could potentially happen to Sota if he chose to learn, Junhui beamed happily around the reluctant answer and dashed forward to unlock the doors. He returned a few seconds later, tugging on Sota's wrist to pull him in. "It's- It's a little messy," he flushed at the male's teasing, his previous worries vanishing only to be replaced by a new one. There were art supplies and photographs scattered in every direction, stray flecks of paint striping up washed oak. Scampering into his bedroom, Junhui grabbed the item, turning it over to stare. Heat blossomed over his chest and the wolf started to fidget, feet staying rooted to the ground as he worried his bottom lip with his teeth-- fearing that Sota would dislike his gift.

@☾ junhui w。 He held the others hand tightly before he paused, "Still it's good to have a dream." He looks at the Male before he paused when the other spoke about helping him remember and he stayed silent. His eyebrows furrowed a bit, "Ah.. we shall see." He said lowly, knowing what he'd give up if he learned his life before, slowly he looked to see they arrived to the males home. He observed it and nods, "Let's head inside, might be good for me to see the inside so I can manifest when I want here." He teased, lighting up the mood softly.

@✞ sota f。 Anger faintly thrummed in his veins and Junhui's fingers curled tighter around Sota's, clutching onto it like like a lifeline. "I hate it." His voice was barely a whisper, "That dream is long gone just like that kid. I don't care about acting anymore." Looking up at the male, the creases between his brows unfurl and he sighed. "I do need help in control, but I don't wish to bother you." He paused, thinking, "Your life before you died, I want to help you remember. We could help each other!" In the meantime, they've reached the doorstep of Junhhi's home. It was a small cabin situated in the edge of a forest, the male turning it into his sanctuary when he first ran away from the bustling city and found this house abandoned. "Do you want to wait outside or come in?"

@☾ junhui w。 Seeing the other didnt continue his sentence made him raise his eyebrow but he didnt ask and just let it be. "I dont find it boring, it's interesting actually. I dont remember much of me life before death, so learning about others interests me a lot." He voiced, with a low sigh knowing the only way he could learn of his life before would be once he gives up the reaper life and officially dies himself and his soul. "You shouldn't look down on your ability, everyone is different even humans. They are self conscious about things somewhat like this. But others dont let it bring them down because it is there dream so they work for it, so if you want to be an actor. Be it, learn to figure a way out to help control yourself. If you need help then I can lend a hand as well."

@✞ sota f。 "Of course it's important. The trust has to be mutual, just like.." he left the rest of the sentence hanging once again, shaking his head. Soft curls fall over his eyes and he squeezed their hands tighter, pressing in closer to the male as they walked into a small forest clearing. He didn't mind the cold touch. In fact, he liked how it chills the constant flame burning under his skin. "My childhood?" Junhui hummed, "Wasn't much. Just an ordinary human kid with an ordinary dream of being an actor. Actors are so cool and handsome on screen, you know, I wanted to be like them." His eyes shimmered under the night sky, liting up like little stars. "I was actually studying in that field until I couldn't anymore. You'd know why. What sort of actor doesn't have full control of themselves? And now I'm here, still ordinary but with some spooky new ability." The last part was spat out with a tinge of venom, a wry smile plastered hard onto Junhui's face. "I know my childhood's too normal for you, sweet reaper, getting bored?"

@☾ junhui w。 "I'm curious to what this may be." He stated as he got dressed, slicing his semi wet hair back as he finished, once done he began to lead the way out with the other. "That is true, so is it important to you that I trust you hm?" Sota asked, eyebrow rose as he looked over to the other and began to walk beside the other, nodding his head when the male said his place was close. Holding the bales hand in his, the smaller palm that felt slightly warmer than his as he was just a good three degrees colder. Letting the other feel his real body temperature for once, as he walked with the young wolf and looked forward. "Tell me about your childhood, Junhui." He voiced, as his lips curved before he looked at the male and was curious to know how the male lived.

@✞ sota f。 "Yes, something for you." Trailing beside the male, he watched, still amazed even after countless displays, when their lockers swept open with a flourish. Padding over to his locker, he quickly dressed himself. "A bother? No, of course not. My goal is to make you trust me too so," he smirked, shutting the small metal door with a click, turning to face Sota. "I'm honoured you want to know more about me. And since we're going the old fashion way, let's walk therd-- my house isn't that far." They left once they're done, rounding into a secluded path behind the spa house, hands intertwined as they strolled in the cool night breeze. Silence hung loomed them, settling comfortably between the two until Junhui spoke, "so, what do you want to know?"

@☾ junhui w。 "Let's go then," he voiced as he took the males hand to get up and he rose his eyebrow as he thought for a moment. "Sure, would you prefer to walk there hand in hand or shall I make it easy for us." He said, knowing the other knew he could teleport them if he so wished for it, holding the others hand as he began to walk. "Wait- something for me?" He caught on, as he turned to the other a bit curious and confused on what the other had to give him. Leading the way back in where the locker rooms were at, as he found his way to the males locker and his own. As he unlocked his own and the others with a snap of his fingers, "I'm curious, but I believe tonight I'm going to be a bit old fashion and learn about you. Would that be a bother or no?"

@✞ sota f。 "It's okay, I understand," leaning forward, Junhui captured Sota's mouth into his own, tongue swiping across plush lips to exhale against it, "let's go then. I can hear a group of humans making their way here." Giving a playful nip, he pulled away as quick as he came, pushing himself off Sota's lap. Shaking stray droplets off his hair, he held out his hand for the reaper to grab onto, a small blush tinting his cheeks at a sudden thought. "Mind if we head to my house first for a while? I have something to give you." It wasn't something grand, just a small rectangular item that Junhui forged out on nights where he couldn't sleep; thoughts of a certain male lingering at the back of his mind. A wave of nervousness washed over him and his fingers trembled slightly, nonetheless still outstretched for Sota.

@☾ junhui w。 "I believe so we are, but at least it's in some way an order for us to see each other I believe." He rose his eyebrow if what he said made sense, as he looked at the wolf on his lap and he chuckled. Amused by the young Male as he wrapped his left arm around the others slim waist to keep him in place and he locked his gaze with the wolf. "I believe that's what i am doing, i dont eat out much. I prefer to eat things i can make on my own, that and I'm very- not uncomfortable, it's just distracting when I go out." He voiced, since he knew every chance he stayed out in public he'd encounter a lost soul or a soul waiting to be taken to the other side.

@✞ sota f。 Shivers cascaded down his spine upon contact and he started to tremble, skin glowing bright pink. He pressed his head deeper into the curve of his palms, in a deep breatg before slowly peeking up at the male between his fingers. Even with hair matted to his forehead, Sota still looked so ethereal, the slight ever-present quirk of his lips as he soothed his hands down Junhui's back teasingly made the wolf want to kiss it off his face badly. It took him a few seconds to register what the male said; too caught up in trailing a stray droplet trickling down the perfect cheekbones. "Aren't we doing things a little backwards? First we , then we have this talk and now you want to bring me home?" Junhui laughed, eyes crinkling into thin crescents and swung his legs, climbing into the male's lap in one fluid motion, "You never fail to amuse me, but I'm a man of dignity, so shouldn't you bring me out for dinner first?"

@☾ junhui w。 He rose his eyebrow before he let a laugh out from what the other spoke of. A smile rose on his lips to soften his features a bit, "Oh? But I believe I am always like this, babe. I'm probably the person you get so excited to see when I walk in." He grins, before he kept their gaze locked for a few more seconds. Listening to the Male his eyebrow cocked up, "Interest you enough...-- enough to, what?" He asked, curious as his eyebrows pinched together as he looked over the males expression for any details or giveaways. Just as he was observing he felt water, and instinctively he held his hand up to block the water path, shaking his head. He didnt quite hear what the other said but perhaps he had an idea of what it is? Sota leaned down to gently rub the males back softly, his fingertips tapping down the smooth back, "How about you spend the night with me."

@✞ sota f。 Junhui hummed, tapping a finger against his lips in an act of pondering. "Don't be so full of yourself, I might ended up dreading whenever you walk into the same room." Locking gazes, Junhui felt those fluttery butterflies swarm faster in his stomach, charcoal eyes piercing into his soul, making him feel so exposed and vulnerable to the other. "I told you, karma sent you to torment me. We reap what we sow, don't we? You're just lucky you interest me enough to make me--" the words halted. He furrowed his eyebrows. This bubbling feeling, he doesn't really know what it was, hasn't really fallen for anyone just yet but-- Junhui sent a torrent of water splashing at Sota's way, burrowing his face into his hands. "It's just a crush," he murmured softly to himself, ears burning.

@☾ junhui w。 "Possibly, besides I'm sure youd enjoy being able to see me randomly. You might even start waiting for moments of those." He chuckled, before he looked down at the other as he relaxed and felt the warmth of the other against his side. It comforted him, felt nice to be honest. "Guess you do, I'm not an easy guy to give my trust away." He said before he laced his fingers with the males and he rose his eyebrow at the small jab. "You trust me? Must mean you like me then?" He looked down at the Male, there orbs locked as he looked into the males orbs and a charming smile rose on his lips. "I think I'm special because you are hooked, because you like me- puppy love perhaps. If so, that's cute. Makes me curious now."
