((A.N. It's certainly been a while huh kiddies? Well I'm going through alot we've just had our barn burn down and I'm kinda grounded from a computer...so...no update schedules .- .~A))

The clock struck 2 am and the two demons disappeared. Alan ran off the bridge and down the hill to the bank of the river, praying Ronald was okay. When he saw a mess of blond hair peak up from the water he sighed to himself. Ronald dragged himself out of the water only to be greeted with a slap to the cheek then a kiss. When it broke he was stuck staring at the brunette in shock. "Don't do that again!" Alan shrieked, taking off the soaking suit coat from Ron and replacing it with his own before hugging him tightly.

It was a long quiet walk back to the hotel room. Once back Alan began to fuss about every little bruise on Ron, asking if he was okay, checking and re-checking if he was missing any injuries, etc.. After an hour of that the brunette shinigami passed out from exhaustion. Ronald couldn't help but watch for a while, smiling. How can a person with so many problems himself worry about others so intently. He was torn from his thoughts when Alan started talking in his sleep. "I still love you" he muttered "Eric, please". The blond listened to him a bit longer before he woke with a long yawn.

"What were ya dreamin' about?" Ronald asked innocently. At this Alan couldn't stop a light blush from dusting his cheeks, thankful that it was too dark to see. "Nothing" He finally answered. Ronald narrowed his eyes "Liar" he replied coldly. "It was about him wasn't it. Eric?" His tone softening slightly. "Yes, but Ronnie, you got to understand tha-" "You still love him? You want to go back to him? You want him more than me?" His voice steadily rising. "Ronald! Y-You know what...I-I need some air..."

((And thats were I'll end it tonight))
