"Dance with me Death," he crooned, "I am ready." Muraki smiled silkily, reaching out to the dark figure.

Hisoka screamed, struggling against the bonds that held him to the wall. He desperately strained, frantic to reach his partner. Muraki was going to take him, take them in both in a configuration of death… he couldn't lose him…

Hisoka sat up in bed, trembling. As he gasped for breath, a delicate hand rubbed his back, calming and settling him. Warm arms pulled him in, continuing to sooth him down.

"What happened?" his lover's low voice washed over him, settling him back into drowsiness. He let his shields drop, enjoying the wash of love/want/need/comfort/love/lust/needneed/love…

"I had a bad dream." He murmured, cuddling close.

Tsuzuki grinned. "Poor baby. I'll keep you safe." He smiled wider as his hand slid into Hisoka's loose pants, pleased with Hisoka's breathy moan. "It's the best thing to distract you, really."

Hisoka shuddered, fully in agreement.
