"Noww about wwhere you're from Sol." Eridan sat down beside the other.

"Uh well, thiince II don't know where II am IIt'th hard to tell you where exactly II'm from… But II know that iit'th not ath clothe two the water ath you are here." He said shivering slightly.

Eridan sighed, "Then howw are you supposed to get you back home? Can you remember anythin about wwhere you're from?" He asked. The high blood saw him shivering and grabbed a blanket from beside the couch and threw it over his shoulders. "You're lucky I found you, and not some wweirdo."

"Uh well iit'th kiind of weiird… IIt'th liike thiith… II wath wiith AA and KK at the beach… They had dragged me down when II wath jutht about to hack thiith one athholeth computer." Sollux sighed and ran a hand through his dampened hair.

Eridan caught his hand and pulled it down, "Wwho are 'AA' and 'KK'?" He asked.

"Aradia and Karkat, those two are thome of my clothetht friendth. I jutht call them that."

"Wwell is there some wway wwe could reach either of them?" He asked.

"Um ya." The boy stuffed his hand into his pocket and grabbed a yellow cell. Water fell from the device and he sighed. "II gueth not… What thould II do ED?"

Eridan groaned, "You're certainly not the brightest Sol… You showwed up on a beach, it's not going to wwork."

"Do you have any extra electronicth II could uthe?" The low blood asked turning it over in his hand and opening the back. "II might be able to fix iit."

"Oh um ya sure… I think that there's somethin I could givve you…"

Eridan stood up and dropped Sollux's hand. The troll immediately regretted his decision yet he wanted to help Sollux go back to live with his friends… Right? I mean he had only just met the man. He couldn't possibly have feeling for him… Eridan shook his head as he walked off to find something to use.

Sollux lay down on the couch and dropped his sopping wet phone on the table. He sighed and let his eyes close listening to Eridan shuffle around the house he soon drifted to sleep again. His dreams were infiltrated with the magenta colour of Eridan's blood. His vision swam with images of the troll. Soon the one who had invaded his mind was picking him up from the couch. Sollux could feel something soft under him as Eridan set him down. His eyes cracked open and thinking he was still dreaming, pulled the other to his face and kissed him softly. He then let him go and fell back asleep.

Eridan had seen that his guest had fallen asleep again and sighed softly. Setting aside the spare electronics he had found, the magenta blood picked him up. He had decided that it would be better for him upstairs in his room. Carrying up the troll he tried to make sure that he didn't bump around too much. He didn't want to hit the scratch marks to hard. Once up and in the room he laid down the other troll; noticing his eyes were slightly opened he smiled at the way they complimented him. His train of thought was soon broken when Sollux pulled the high blood towards him. When he felt Sollux's lips against his, Eridan's eyes widened in surprise. When he was finally let go Eridan's face was a bright purple as he stumbled backwards.

Eridan left the room and went downstairs. Sitting on the couch he took out his portable phone and checked trollian to see if Feferi was online. He sighed in relief when he saw she was. Quickly he messaged the girl and asked her to come over to his house. She responded that she would be right over and he set down his phone to wait for her. Soon there was a soft knock on the door. He stood up and walked over; opening the door he pulled her into his hive.

"Fef… I have to tell you somethin." He pulled her to the couch and sat down. "Uh wwell… Sol kissed me… I think… I don't think he kneww wwhat he wwas doin though…" He looked at his hands.

The girl's eyes widened, ")(e kissed you! W)(ere is )(e now? I )(ave to go talk to )(im about it!"

"Sol's asleep, Fef… Wwhich is wwhy I'm confused as to if he kneww that he wwas kissin me or if it wwas just kind of a sleep thing he does."

"So t)(en w)(ere is t)(e new addition? I don't see )(im." Feferi asked.

"I brought Sol up to my room, I didnt wwant him sleeping on the couch so I figured I should bring him to a bed… then he kissed me wwhen I put him down"

"Well w)(at's t)(e problem -Eridan? I t)(ink you like )(im! You s)(ouldn't be so against )(im kissing you. Especially if )(e did it because )(e wanted to and not because of 'some sleep t)(ing' as you would say."

"Ya but howw wwould I be able to tell that? It's not like I can ask him until he wwakes up and by then maybe he wwill havve changed his mind and he'll realize howw wweird I am…"

"-Eridan, if )(e would kiss you I'm sure t) (e likes you. So you better get your butt upstairs and talk to )(im. I know you said )(e's sleeping but I want you to go upstairs -Eridan and talk to t)(at troll!" She said pushing him to get up.

"Fine, ill go… But you better be right about this Fef. Otherwwise Sol is going to stay wwith you… I don't think I could handle being around him wwhile I'm upstairs could you try and find his friends Karkat and Aradia?"

Feferi nodded, "Okey dokes -Eri! Now go away! I don't want to see eit)(er of you until you're toget)(er!"

Eridan nodded and stood up from the couch. Walking over to the stair case he took a deep breath and headed up towards the low blood in his room. Once he got to the door he could hear Sollux's soft breathing and slowly pushed the door open. Walking into the room he shut the door behind him and walked over to the bed. Sitting down on the lusciously decorated bed Eridan moved his hand to Sollux's hair and started to run his ringers through it. 'Evven though he's been in the wwater for wwho knowws howw long; his hair is still really soft.' The troll thought to himself. Thinking about Sollux he hadn't even noticed that the other troll had opened his eyes and was grinning.

"Done playiing wiith my haiir ED? Or do you thtiill want two touch iit?" Sollux asked rolling onto his back and wincing.

Eridan pulled his hand away quickly, "Shut up Sol… I wwas just um, feeling it… It doesn't mean anything. I um didnt knoww you wwere awwake."

"Iif you had thomeone runniing theiir handth through your haiir and bruthhiing agaiintht your hornth you would wake up two."

Eridan's face turned bright magenta again, "Wwhatevver Sol I came up here to talk to you about somethin."

"Okay what iith iit ED? Talk away, II'm liithteniing."

"Wwell, um Sol I uh… I don't hate you."

"Thankth for the update. Iith that the only reathon you came up here? Two tell me you don't hate me?"

"No I came up here to tell you that my feelings, wwell they're the opposite of hate and I knoww I just met you… But wwhen you kissed me I really liked it."
