Ok so for this chapter the M rating kind of comes in. Nothing too fun yet but well, you get the idea.

Rocketfire, I'm looking forward to your many complaints on this one, I get shy when writing even remotely dirty things which probably will be your critique field day :3 As for ch 6, it was really just a filler to get some questions out of the way, mostly to build background. If there are any other questions you think I may have missed, let me know and I'll do my best to have the boys explain :)

Hope you enjoy it !

"Luna" Liam called.

The black cat came to its owner and gracefully jumped into his waiting arms.

"Roy, this is Luna"

It startled Roy to hear Liam call his name like that but he wasn't surprised. He had never told the man his name but since he figured out where he lived, his name was probably cake.

Roy cautiously reached out his hand toward the black creature and the cat purred against it pushing up into the calloused fingers. Liam smiled and set the cat down watching it saunter back over to Angel where was and they began to play, chasing each other about the room. At this point, Elliot came in and excused himself.

"Master Watson, shall I prepare dinner?"

Roy turned to look at the man. He hadn't really interacted much with the old guy since they'd met in the car but so far Roy thought he was pretty ok. Elliot had a smooth, velvety voice that hinted at an English accent which in Roy's opinion, suited his very snooty appearance. The butler had gray, thinning hair, a thick matching moustache and those really tiny glasses that sit on the tip of the nose like they're about to fall off.

"Yes, Please" replied Liam sending the man back on his way.

Liam threaded his fingers with Roy's and led him over to the couch curling into his side before turning on the TV. The redhead buried his fingers at the base of the clone's neck as he'd done to Angel earlier and proceeded to repeatedly open and close each finger individually through his hair. Liam's eyes fluttered shut and he craned his head into the strong shoulder next to him, a low purr rising in his chest.

It was so awesome looking at a T.V, especially one this huge, and actually having channels to choose from. Not to mention that he could actually see the faces of the people speaking with crystalline precision and no pillow throwing was required. Slim pale fingers slipped under Roy's shirt and began to absently trace circles against Roy's abs sending a warm feeling straight where he knew it shouldn't go. This seemed to be happening a lot lately whenever Liam was concerned. He wasn't sure if it was on purpose or if he was a genuinely thick headed tease but either way, he again had Roy hot for him. He placed his right ankle on his left knee to try and disguise the problem while he still could and tried to focus on the hockey game that was currently on.

Not too long after, Luna jumped onto the couch curling against her shirtless master and Angel came bouncing after lying belly down on the couch her calves in the air swinging back and forth against each other.

She made a whining sound until Liam lifted his head from the home it had made on Roy's shoulder to look at her. She lifted a small pale hand and he placed his face in it.

'Liam, why were you sad?'

"When?" He asked, not quite sure what she meant.

'Recently. Luna told me of your hurting'

Liam smiled and kissed her little fingers.

"Because I was waiting for my little mouse to love me" He replied

"And now I have his attention and an incredible little light that he brought along with him" replied Liam bumping the tip of her nose with a finger.

Angel smiled a genuinely huge smile and tears pooled in the corners of her eyes. Cautious not to harm Luna, she crawled between her two caretakers to give them each a kiss on the cheek and threw an arm around both necks pulling them all together.

Roy really wasn't a touchy-feely guy but he couldn't help but be flooded by warmth at her little gesture. Both men nuzzled their faces into her shoulder and gave her a brief squeeze. Any doubts Roy had that this was the right thing to do died right there and then. That little girl was special and he knew it, he didn't need Liam's fancy science voodoo to tell him that and he was slowly finding that Liam himself wasn't half bad for being some overpaid playboy.

The smell of dinner broke the moment and had all three of them practically floating into the kitchen. Roy couldn't remember the last time he'd had real food. Elliot placed the food on the table and he and Angel ate as if the world was set to end in an hour and food was their only way to heaven. Liam bit back a laugh as he tried to eat his own food and Elliot, equally entertained at the antics of the newcomers himself, smiled.

After dinner, Roy and Angel collapsed on the couch, Roy on his back and Angel on her stomach on top of his chest with a set of groans. Liam crouched by Roy's head and gave him a small chaste kiss. Not wanting him to pull away, Roy reached his hand around the back of Liam's head and pulled him down deepening the kiss for a while longer before releasing him. Liam was almost drug like to Roy at this point. His kisses were like wine, regardless of how chaste they were, they always left his head spinning. If this progressed any further, Roy knew he'd be addicted for life and that unnerved him.

He hated depending on anyone for anything, EVER. He liked to be in control, to know what was going to happen and to dictate the direction of the plans but here he was, plans thrown to shit, yet again, with a small child he was growing increasingly fond of given her amazingly non whiney nature not to mention, the fact that he was virtually snot-free. On top of that, this guy that a few weeks ago he wanted to have gutted became the main focus of his lust driven desires, they were even exchanging mutual little kisses.

He kept his hand on the back of Liam's head and resumed his caresses from earlier. Helpless to Roy's touches, Liam settled on the floor where he'd been crouching and rested his head on Roy's chest purring quite loudly. Roy used his free hand to give Angel the same attention earning a purr from her as well.

After a good half hour, Liam unwillingly pulled himself from Roy's ministrations placing a kiss on his palm and stood stretching every inch of his body. Again, Roy failed to look away as each long muscle flexed with his movements.

"Glad I have your attention little mouse" He purred seductively tracing a finger down the tan, muscled arm. Roy swallowed dry and closed his eyes thinking of old people dry humping to calm his horny little heart. This seemed to do the trick as the repulsion overpowered lust. He opened his eyes once more and looked up into the oceanic blue ones above and smiled.

"Yea, whatever. Tease" Roy grunted.

Liam chuckled and moved down to pick up a sleeping Angel planting hundreds of small kisses across her nose, forehead and cheek.

"Come on now, no sleeping before your bath" Liam whined nuzzling his ear into her neck drawing out a giggle fit.

Roy looked to the digital clock on the bottom screen of the T.V. informing him that it was almost eleven. It was a good time to get the munchkin to bed, and he wouldn't mind some sleep either at this point.

He stood stretching his upper body before shaking it loose.

"Where do I shower? And I didn't exactly pack clothes… I was a little whelmed at the time and didn't think to bring anything…"

"Whelmed?" Said Liam with a curious smile.

"Robin habit, sorry." He mumbled mentally cursing the batboy for giving him these random vocabulary words.

Liam nodded and shifted Angel so that he had only his left arm under her legs holding her on his hip and held a hand out to Roy.

"No worries, I'll get you something to wear" Liam said.

Roy hesitantly took his hand and followed him upstairs. He wasn't all too keen on this couple crap and quite frankly, were they even a couple? After the last twenty-four hours, all that Roy knew was that he didn't know squat. With a mental shrug he tightened his grip on the smooth, slender fingers. 'Act first, think later', Not his usual method but he liked where it got him so far.

Liam bathed Angel while Roy went to shower in the guest room. After Angel was clean and in sleepwear, Liam placed her in the spare room which would now be hers. He placed her under the blanket and gave her the bunny she'd become so fond of tucking her in. Luna joined her and curled on the pillow next to Angel's head.

Roy stepped out of the bathroom with a towel hanging around his hips and pouted.

"A little cold here" Said Roy gesturing to his goose bumps spread across his arms earning him two sets of laughs.

Both men gave Angel a small kiss on the forehead and wished her a good night before heading out and turning off the light.

Roy waited outside Angel's room while Liam went to get him something to wear. He looked around and noticed that the hallway was huge and faintly lit by false candles. It was really a cozy feeling place, and despite its size, it wasn't 'in your face' with its obviously expensive decoration. He walked a few steps ahead and traced the frame of a picture on the wall with his fingers. It had a robust, sullen looking brunette man with his arms around a small, frail woman whose jet black straight hair fell messily about her shoulders. On her lap was a small blonde boy and they were nose to nose beaming smiles at one another

If it wasn't for the creepy guy, this would be the epitome of cute. Roy felt a slender pair of arms circle his waist as fingers danced up his stomach sending chills allover. He turned to see Liam with a smile and clothes in hand. He took them mumbling a small 'thanks' before pulling the boxers on under the towel. He untied the towel and tossed it around his neck and moved to get the very fancy looking sweatpants on but hesitated noticing that Liam had apparently stopped breathing.

"Liam?" Roy said waving his hand in front of the glazed over blues.

Liam bit his bottom lip fixing his eyes on Roy and took a few predatory steps forward pinning Roy against the stair rails that overlooked the living room.

"Liam?" Roy repeated nervously.

Liam got on the tips of his toes and threw his arms around Roy's neck crushing against his lips with a searing kiss. Roy instinctively closed his eyes and moved to hold Liam's head in place in case he got the funny idea of backing out. Much to Roy's surprise, he made no such move but instead licked at Roy's bottom lip and drew it between his own lips with a small nibble. Roy moaned against the blonde's lips and pushed his tongue into the slightly opened mouth and was readily met with a hot tongue against his. Roy moved his hand to sit on the small of the shorter man's back and pushed their hips together causing a delicious friction to spark. Liam pulled away from the kiss to moan and grabbed Roy's hands placing each on one of his ass cheeks.

Roy taking the hint squeezed tightly pressing their lower halves together again as he moved his lips to Liam's neck trailing it with sloppy wet kisses. He placed a bite at his collar bone before kissing back up to his jaw leaving a small red mark at the juncture between the neck and shoulder. Liam was purring loudly at this point. Roy still had the firm mounds of perfectly sculpted muscle in each hand and he was kneading them roughly as he nibbled his way to the front of Liam's neck and back to his mouth where the frantic battle for tongue dominance resumed.

In their heated frenzy, both men failed to notice an unfortunate Elliot that stood behind them slightly sour faced. The elder cleared his throat and both instantly broke apart, much to Roy's frustration. He was so hard right now it wasn't even funny. Roy knew Liam could feel it against his hip and knew by the hardness against his own his that the other wasn't any better off than he was. Liam pulled completely away from Roy and sheepishly apologized to Elliot wishing him a good night before turning to leave the hall.

Roy mumbled a good night and made his way downstairs, very frustrated and still very hard. He stretched and maneuvered to the best of his ability to avoid putting too much pressure on his problem and fully sank face down into the couch.

"Night Liam" He said closing his eyes ready for sleep.

Liam stood at the foot of the stairs with his arms crossed.

"Do you honestly believe you're to sleep on a couch in a house this big?"

Roy lifted an emerald eye and nodded.

The sapphire eyes he'd been looking into rolled signaling he was wrong.

"Then where am I staying?"

The blonde took him by the wrist and led him up the stairs and opened a door. He turned on the light and Roy felt a brain melt moment coming on. A large room with crimson silk curtains, black walls and an enormous red bed front and center greeted his eyes. Roy walked over to the bed tracing the linens with his fingers and moaned quite audibly at how soft the blanket was. It felt like pure joy.

He heard a repeated foot tap and turned to look at Liam that had resumed his posture from the living room crossing his arms over his still bare chest with lips turned down in a half frown. Roy casually oogled the chest over which the arms were crossed and his still half hard member twitched.

"What? And do you ever wear a shirt?"

Liam face palmed himself and looked back at his love. He moved as to where he was just in front of Roy and threw his arms around his neck again burying his nose into it.

"I don't want you moaning unless I'm causing it" Liam murmured into his neck with a slight lick.

That comment shot straight down to Roy's now completely re-hardened cock and he took a deep breath trying to calm himself down. Roy circled the smaller man's waist with his arms and pulled him in tightly.

"Then get to it, but you'll have to be really dirty about it, those blankets felt pretty damn good" Roy whispered huskily against the blonde licking the darkened skin against the pulse point which was beating furiously against the pale skin.

This time it was the clone that felt chills break out across his skin.

Liam lifted his head to look into his favorite emerald eyes and pressed their foreheads together so that they were staring at each other. Roy cupped the side of his face and closed his eyes, brushing their lips together, exhilarated to feel the spark between them once more. Liam pressed them a little closer slowly moving his lips against the warm pair on his. Roy tightened his grip on the man in his arms and used the hand on the side of Liam's face to tilt his head back to deepen the kiss a little further.

Liam slightly parted his lips and Roy licked past them earning a small moan from the blonde. With that, Roy found something even more addicting than Liam's kisses, Liam's moans. Roy pushed his tongue deep inside the clone's mouth playing around with the other tongue which playfully came out to meet his. Taking advantage of the temporary distraction, the redhead pushed Liam back against the bed, tumbling down with him onto those sinful blankets and pulled the blonde on top. A long braid cascaded over the pale shoulder and Roy pushed it back with his hand leaning up to kiss the skin that the braid had previously covered, his tongue slipping out to taste the sweet smelling skin.

Liam let out a shaky breath and closed his eyes reveling in the attention his little mouse was giving his shoulder. He craned his head to the side leaving his neck exposed hinting at what he wanted. Roy was happy to comply drawing loud moans from the man above him as he alternated between kisses, nibbles and licks up the smooth skin. Each moan was like a huge dose of ecstasy to Roy's ears. His hands found their way back to Liam's ass as the kisses began trailing from the slender neck across jaw until he found pink lips once more. He didn't bother to play this time pushing his tongue in forcefully in time with a well timed squeeze which earned him the sluttiest moan he'd heard from the blonde so far.

They could feel the heat beginning to build between both breathless bodies and lust slightly clouded their eyes. Roy lowered the hands that were on Liam's ass down to graze the inside of his thighs dangerously close to where Liam needed him most. Liam hissed and moved to flip their positions lifting his hips to grind against Roy's hardness when there was a knock at the door and both practically hissed in agony rolling away from each other chests heaving like they'd run around the world twice in record time.

Liam got up kissing Roy's shirtless chest and opened the door. There Angel stood with a pout; bunny by the ear in hand and Luna in tow.

"Can't sleep?" Questioned Liam, running his fingers through his hair.

Angel shook her head no.

With a sigh, he picked up the small girl cradling her gently in his arms and moved to the bed where his redhead now pouted. He placed the girl under the blanket and she crawled to the middle and buried her face into the pillow. They looked into each other's eyes and you would probably need the Jaws of Life to pry through the sexual tension between them.

Roy figuring the cock block was permanent got up from his sitting spot to turn off the light, taking this chance to put the discarded sweatpants on and crawled in on Angel's left side with a sigh while Liam took her right. Each man threw and arm over her lacing their fingers together before falling asleep. 'Just this once' thought Roy and Liam in unison before giving way to the exhaustion from the long day they'd had.

Roy suspiciously opened one eye and searched for the accursed sun that awoke him each morning. He felt rested and there was nothing ushering him out of sleep land which he found odd. There was a small movement against his chest and he prepared to attack whatever it was until he recalled just where he was and what that movement was. Roy couldn't see a thing in the pitch blackness that surrounded him. All he could feel was a small ball of warmth against his chest. There was a weight over his stomach and on his shoulder as small breaths fluttered against his rib cage.

He rolled to his side removing the limbs from himself and placed a kiss on Angel's cheek feeling behind her finding the rest of the bed empty. He had no idea what time it was since there was no light anywhere to indicate time of day. He rolled out of bed and made his way to the small crack of light that peeked from under the door. He turned the knob and felt a slap of brightness hit his eyes causing him to hiss. 'Still fucking hate you' He thought to the sun before plodding downstairs. He looked at the time on the corner of the T.V screen which was glowing a dull eleven o'two. He couldn't remember the last time he'd slept in this late. It felt amazing.

He found his way to the kitchen where Elliot skillfully chopped though several onions.

"Good morning" He mumbled

Elliot turned and smiled.

"Good morning Master Roy, did you sleep well?" He asked cheerfully.

Roy smiled back and nodded. "Too well"

Roy slid into one of the chairs and Luna took the chance to rub against his leg demanding attention. Roy reached down and rubbed his fingers behind her ears. She wantonly turned her head into the touch with a purr. Roy's lips pulled into a smirk remembering Liam's similar behavior the previous night. Speaking of…

"Elliot, have you seen Liam?" Roy asked lifting the cat onto his lap stroking down its back.

"Master Liam has gone to work, he will return soon, please make yourself at home. He requested I treat you and Miss Evangeline as family" Elliot informed never turning from his work.

Roy snorted and shook his head. Typical Liam comment. That thought brought an abrupt frown to his features. Again he was disturbed at the sudden intimacy he had with Liam. He was already tuned into what were 'typical' Liam behaviorisms. He rubbed the back of his neck nervously and placed Luna on the floor going to the fridge for something to drink.

He had a mini jaw drop as he opened the stainless steel box, the overwhelming amount of food slapping him in the face. Like the T.V. yesterday, he had choices. He reached for a box of grape juice and closed the door with his foot as he opened the box tipping it towards his mouth. Elliot walked over and placed a hand over his wrist stopping him from lifting the carton any higher. The frown and very bat like glare on his face made Roy nervous as Elliot took the juice from his hands and poured it into a glass before handing the glass to Roy and putting the box away.

"Sorry" mumbled Roy sheepishly sipping away at the purple liquid, swirling it around the cup. He forgot he was in a mansion and above all, he forgot he had no manners what so ever. He was a guy's guy. If it were up to him, he's sit on the couch watching sports while chowing down something greasy, unoccupied hand jammed down pants. That probably wouldn't bode well with the fancy Englishman, Roy thought with a sigh. He may have now considered himself gay but he didn't exactly know how to gay it up.

He felt no unnatural desire to go shopping or find eighty-something different names for shades of blue. He knew it was stereo-typical of him but he was raised in a very 'macho' manner. He didn't have much to base himself on, especially since in his neck of the country even sitting to pee made you a fag. He hunched over the table and buried his face in his hands. He didn't know how to be anyone other than Roy. He wasn't good at thinking before he spoke, he was pig headed, stubborn and if you had to compare the size his pride to a country, Russia and China combined paled in comparison.

He didn't know how to just wake up gay, just thinking of himself as gay made him on edge but when he was with Liam, he didn't feel gay or faggy, he just felt hot and horny. Roy felt a small tug on his arm and looked down to a very smiley Angel.

"Morning" Roy said pulling her onto his knee.

She picked up his half empty glass of grape juice and greedily drank it down wiping her mouth on the back of her hand. That made Roy smile. At least he wasn't the only one without manners. He saw Elliot cringe before turning back to his cooking and internally gloated. She may not be genetically his but as far as the 'tude goes, she might as well be.

Hopping off his lap, Angel greeted Luna and hugged her pushing her white little nose against the cat's raven colored fur. They sat there for a while, Luna meowing now and then while Angel's facial expressions varied from second to second through their silent dialogue. There's something to add to her skill list; talking to cats. 'Aquaman has the sushi chat thing going so I guess this is dry land version of it.' Roy thought to himself before getting up.

He walked aimlessly around the house leaving Luna and Angel to their chat, acquainting himself with the various rooms he encountered. There were big rooms and small rooms, rooms with books, rooms with statues. Each room seemed to hold a theme, and all were very impressive yet, none as impressive as the final room on the third floor. It held possibly the largest and most cutting edge training room he'd ever seen. He almost got hard at the idea of being able to train in a place like this. He looked dreamily at all of the equipment, the rows of weights, the kick ass treadmill, the pull up bars, some shit load of stuff he didn't even know the name of, everything was so fucking shiny.

Roy jumped with a start as a pair of hands found their way onto his stomach before realizing whom they belonged to. He took one of the hands and pulled it pinning Liam to the doorframe.

"You've really got to stop that" Roy mumbled, his lips already searching out his favorite spot on Liam's neck. Liam brought his hands up to the back of Roy's head and tangled his fingers in the short red hair tilting his head to the side so the lips could have better access. Roy lifted his head from the soft skin earning a dissatisfied huff and moved his lips closer to Liam's for a short kiss.

"I missed you too" Purred Liam with a lopsided grin.

Roy noticed that for once, Liam had a shirt on, and a blazer… and a tie, and social pants with fancy shoes. He also had on something Roy found unusually sexy; glasses. Roy raised an eyebrow and continued to stare waiting for Liam to say something.

"Are my clothes bothering you?" Asked Liam in an amused tone.

"Not really, no" Said Roy tracing the cheekbone under the bottom of the rimless glasses with the back of his finger.

"Kind of looks good on you" He mumbled brushing his thumb across Liam's bottom lip.

A pink muscle darted out and flicked over Roy's thumb before pulling the finger into the moist cavern behind the lips. Roy closed his eyes and hissed as Liam slowly pulled back from the digit ghosting his teeth across the tip before he dropped it. Roy let out a shaky breath and moved back from Liam.

"I have to call Batman…" Roy said avoiding looking into Liam's eyes.

'Kill joy' Though Liam bitterly at the mention of another man mentioned during the given moment.

"That or he's going to blow into panic mode once he sees Angel and I are missing, if that hasn't happened already"

Liam nodded. "You can't call from here though, I don't believe I feel too comfortable with the dark knight knowing where I reside" Liam said with a small frown.

Roy kissed it away and nodded.

"I'll have Elliot take you to get your cell phone, call from there if possible, to trace you to the tower near here would be far too easy for a man of his skill" Liam said with a slightly threatening tone.

'There it goes' Roy thought noticing the malice in the other man's voice spur on his lust. Liam took his hand and kissed it gently. "If you want, you can try out the training room when you return?" Liam asked curiously.

If Roy though it was hot when Liam was being threatening, it was even hotter being given access to the training room of his dreams. He pressed his lips against Liam's harshly and tugged his bottom lip between his teeth. Liam shivered and he pulled away satisfied with the reaction he'd drawn.

"Let's go" Said Roy lacing their fingers together.

Liam nodded and both men moved to the kitchen to find Elliot.
