When Eclipse awoke he didn't remember where he was or how he got there. All he knew was he and Raenef were on a couch together with Raenef asleep on his chest. Looking around he remembered: the storm, the tornado, Raenef wishing to hear him sing a song for him, and then falling asleep on the couch. Eclipse didn't want to admit it, but he really liked Raenef laying on him like that. It was like having a big soft teddy bear to hug and dream with. The peace that seemed to hang in the room almost made him wish they could stay here like this forever. Alas, it could not be so. Raenef stirred then awoke. Morning, Eclipse.
Morning sleepyhead.
When Raenef had finally woken up, he found himself in the strong arms of Eclipse. He didn't know why, but he felt right there, lying on Eclipse. He absentmindedly felt Eclipse's chest. Eclipse was well muscled, so lean and smooth. When he noticed Eclipse's normal breathing meant he was awake. So he stirred and greeted Eclipse for the morning.
We should get up, Raenef, there are studies to be done.
Do we have to?
Yes, hon.
Eclipse blushed. Did I just call him hon? What's wrong with me? That's what a lover would call him, not me! Raenef noticed his teacher's blush but couldn't think of a reason for it and wondered if he might be sick.
Um, you ok, Eclipse?
Oh, yes, I'm fine, why do you ask?
No reason. Um, I can't get up if you're hugging me like that.
Eclipse blushed for the second time in minutes and let Raenef get up. He felt Raenef get up, and faintly mutter go. Eclipse could only guess Raenef had gone off somewhere to think. He knew he felt like doing the same himself. His emotions were threatening to show their face and he needed to get himself under control. Picturing the garden and grabbing his guitar from where he had left it on a chair, he said go and was off.
When Eclipse arrived at the garden he found himself standing with his eyes closed and the sun on his face. He couldn't recall a time when he had ever enjoyed the sun as he did now. Sitting against a tree he began playing a soft song on his guitar as his thoughts wandered. After a while of this, Eclipse became vaguely aware that he was being watched. Coming out of his stupor, he sensed Raenef nearby. Calmly glancing up, he spotted Raenef apparently trying to hide in a tree about 10 feet from where Eclipse sat. Trees aren't very comfortable from my experience. He said loud enough for Raenef to hear.
As it were, this nearly caused Raenef to fall out of said tree, but he was able to grab unto a lower branch as it smacked him in the face. Owie! That hurt!
You shouldn't spy on people from trees.
I wasn't spying!
And what do you call staring at people from a tree, then?
I just wanted to hear you play.
Without my knowing?
Ok, I was spying, are you mad?
No, come sit here, it is improper to spy from a tree.
Sorry! Coming!
Raenef managed to get out of the tree without breaking anything, if none too gracefully, and sat beside Eclipse. Um, if it's improper to spy from a tree, where would be proper? Raenef questioned as he shyly leaned against Eclipse.
Well, right here beside me is nice.
Raenef giggled nervously. More comfortable, too. Raenef lazily plucked one of the guitar strings. Play something? Please?
If you insist, then I cannot refuse.
Yes you can, I wouldn't ask so nicely if you couldn't.
Eclipse shook his head; confused by what Raenef meant. Eclipse was his servant; of course Raenef could make him do almost anything. Perhaps the thought of controlling another's actions scares him. I should discus that with him later. Eclipse mused.
Alright, I'm going to play you a song, but you have to listen to the lyrics closely. It's how I feel about someone very close to m, and they need to hear it.
Through the darkness
I can see your light
And you will always shine
And I can feel your heart in mine
Your face I've memorized
I idolize just you
I look up to
Everything you are
In my eyes you do no wrong
I've loved you for so long
And after all is said and done
You're still you
After all
You're still you
You walk past me
I can feel your pain
Time changes everything
One truth always stays the same
You're still you
After all
You're still you
I look up to
Everything you are
In my eyes you do no wrong
And I believe in you
Although you never asked me to
I will remember you
And what life put you through
Raenef was silent when Eclipse finished, apparently lost in thought. Eclipse was worried. Does he know that's how I feel about him? Will he get it or will it just confuse him? I hope I didn't overdo it…
Raenef was indeed deep in thought. And very confused at that. What did Eclipse say before? Something about someone close to him, and how he feels about him? Does he love someone else? Who could it be? Someone close to him…did he mean that literally? But there's no one but us for miles! Wait… Did he mean me? Me? No, he only thinks of me as a foolish demon lord he got stuck with training. But, maybe there's a chance he feels the way I do. Could be…
Raenef?
Raenef's thoughts were interrupted by Eclipse. You're sweating and white as a sheep, is something wrong?
Oh, yes, I'm ok. I just need to lie down a moment. Raenef thought of his room and whispered, "go".
Worried, but knowing there was nothing he could do but wait, Eclipse transported to his own room to think.

a/n Ok, a little shorter than chapter 1, but I tried. Chapter 3 should be up soon; schools out so I should have plenty of free time. Like? Hate? Please post your comments, for good or bad, it helps to know if I should change something, or if it's good the way it is. Don't hesitate to criticize either, I'm still new to writing ;
