Great snowy wings folded as Krad landed on Satoshi's balcony. The blond ice hunter tiredly pushed the door open and stumbled into the apartment. He was exhausted after yet another failed attempt to stop his thieving counterpart. His other half had gotten the targeted artwork and then proceeded to make his opposite look like a fool. He clinched his fist in renewed anger but the energy that rage gave him was short lived. Krad stumbled over to his host's bed and collapsed on to it with a sigh. He stretched his wings and winced as his muscles protested the action. The blond groaned and buried his head under the pillow. He shifted and muffled another groan as his muscles protested every little movement that he made.
The blond drifted into an exhausted sleep. He didn't hear the sliding glass door leading onto the balcony quietly slide open. A shadowy figure silently stepped into the room, purple eyes took in the white and gold clad figure sprawled on the bed. Tan lips curved up into a smile as the figure walked over to the sleeping hunter.
"Hello again my beautiful Ice Angel."
The shadowy figure reached out carefully so as not to disturb the peacefully sleeping blond and untied the cross from the bottom of his pony tail and laid it on the night stand next to the bed. Then he carefully pulled the band that held the blond's hair back and laid it next to the cross. Tan fingers then began to comb through tangled golden strands.
"Hair like the sun."
The black clad figure settled down on the bed next to the blond and gently stroked snowy wings. Tan fingers carefully began to massage the juncture where wings met body. Tan lips smiled as his fingers worked tension out of tight muscles.
The blond groaned softly as his muscles loosened. Pale lips curved into a faint smile as the hunter unconsciously relaxed under the gentle ministrations of the other's talented hands.
The shadowy figure noticed the smile on the blond's lips and smiled in return. "Now, I need to get you to smile like that when you are awake." The other's smile got larger, "that will be my new goal to make you smile and maybe even laugh."
As the figure continued to massage the tension out of the blond's shoulders, back and wings he began to sing quietly.
These arms that hold you tight,
Never want to let you go tonight,
They will always be there,
Keeping you safe and sound,
These eyes that watch you sleep,
Wonder all about the dreams you keep,
And if you follow your hart,
There is no telling where it will lead,
And in your lullaby, may you find all that your heart desires,
And as you slumber deep, may you keep the sweetness in you,
And Keep believing that dreams do come true,
And in your lullaby, may you find all that your heart desires,
And as you slumber deep, May you keep the sweetness in you,
And keep believing that dreams do come true,
And keep believing that dreams do come true.
Tan hands smoothed over wings and then hair one last time as the black clad figure rose to his feet. "I'll see you later, my beautiful Ice angel." The man picked up a blanket from the bottom of the bed and carefully covered the hunter. Then he leaned down and lightly kissed the blond on the cheek. "I know that there is sweetness in you somewhere and I'm going to find it. I don't care what you say; you aren't as heartless as you'd like to believe." With that the figure straightened and quietly walked over to the sliding door and opened it. He stepped out and softly closed it behind him. Black wings stretched and launched their owner into the air. The black clad figure silently flew off into the night leaving the hunter to his dreams.
