Many thoughts creeped into his mind after hearing this question. His eyes shut, he was trying to imagine the look on Colin's face as that question was asked. The tone of Colin's voice was very sincere, he was trying to imagine the care and concern in his eyes. But there was no need to imagine, because his subject was standing right there, right next time.

Tory rolled over and opened his eyes. Colin's were more beautiful than he had ever seen before. Colin was reaching out, looking for human companionship, someone who would love him for him, and not care what he was. This struck a chord in Tory. He suddenly didn't care about anything except loving and protecting Colin.

Tory rose up in the bed and met Colin face to face, Colin's eyes staring deep into his. He swallowed hard, staring at the redhead, still not sure what his next move would be, his human form not being able to read people's minds But Tory's intentions happened in a flash, as the boy threw his arms around Colin and pulled him down on the bed. Tory massaged Colin's lips with his own and Colin went with it.

"How do I feel about you" asked Tory

"Mmmhmmm?" Colin asked back

"I love you. I don't care, I trust you and love you and want to be here for you." Tory stared deep into Colin's eyes as he said these words.

Colin hugged Tory. "The world is cold, I knew you were the one" he whispered into Tory's ear

Tory smiled and reassured Colin. "I love you."
