Beyond leaned into C's embrace, "You really are the most inconvenient person of my life."

C smiled and looked up his voice purring deeply, "Sorry."

Beyond grabbed Caspian's hand and led him towards town. Passing various stands of handmade goods, small shops with hand picked fruits and vegetables. Caspian stopped and smelled the air, with a subtle smile. Beyond watched him, "Smells good? By the time we get back it'll be too late for him to make anything, we should just get food and some groceries. I don't intend being here long."

Caspian nodded following Beyond into a small grocery store, it was humid and wasn't full of pleasing aromas like the air outside. Caspian followed Beyond with his hands in his pockets trying to breathe as little as possible.

Beyond looked back at him and laughed, "Not so pleasant? It's the meat, the refrigeration techniques aren't as advanced as other countries. If I ever lived here permanently I would probably become a vegan." Caspian nodded still holding his breath. Beyond smiled and kissed his cheek, "Why don't you do and stand guard outside the store, I'll pick up the rest of Light's list."

Caspian darted outside before Beyond could actually finish his sentence and upon exiting the small building he gasped for air. Recomposing himself he lit a cigarette and studied the crowd from behind a pair of sunglasses he pulled from his pockets. Scanning over every person in the crowd he spotted a little girl crying. C approached her cautiously, "Donde esta tu madre?"

The little girl looked up from behind swollen eyes then sobbed louder. C looked around uncomfortably, "Where is your mother?"

Her ears perked up, "I don't know, everyone speaks a different language and I can't find her!"

C sighed and held out his hand, "I will assist you in finding your mother." The little girl stared at him for a minute.

"But… Mister… I'm not supposed to go anywhere with strangers." She said backing away a little.

C reached into his pocket and showed his ID to her. "Look, I'm a good guy. I promise."

The little girl looked at his MI5 ID, she smiled, "You're from England?" Caspian nodded and hoisted her up on his shoulders, "You're really tall, Mister!"

Caspian held her legs, "Can you see your mother?"

Beyond walked out of the store with bags of groceries and smiled at the sight that had unfolded. The little girl leaned forward, "There! She's got the bright red hair running around!"

Caspian nodded and waved at Beyond who approached them, "Whose this young lady?"

Caspian started walking in the direction of the little girls mother, "Lost."

The little girl eyed Beyond and Caspian as she was being put down and smothered by her mother's frantic hugs. "If you make each other happy you should be together." The little girl smiled and hugged Caspian's leg, "Thank you for helping me!"

Caspian blushed while smiling and ruffled her hair. Then took some bags from Beyond, "Shall we?" Beyond smiled at C's still slightly red cheeks.

They walked next to each other in silence before reaching the truck and placing the bags in the cab. Beyond pulled Caspian back and pushed him against the truck. Caspian blinked a couple times in surprise. Beyond leaned in pressing against Caspian, "I've had enough if your game. If this is a who can last longest, you win."

Caspian stared into Beyond's eyes, "Well."

Beyond put his hand on his mouth, "No, shut up, I'm not done, how long are you going to wait? I don't want to…" Beyond hissed and pulled his hand back, "Did you seriously just bite me?!"

Caspian narrowed his eyes, "I never know how to start it. Okay? I didn't know then and trust me, I still don't."

Beyond's eyes softened, "I…" Beyond rested his head on Caspian's chest. He could feel himself being wrapped in a hug.

Caspian kissed the top of his head, "I love you. I always did, always will. That's why I never came for you, that's why I stayed away. When I sought my real parents I realized that I could never come home. I wasn't just casted out, I was thrown away."

Beyond looked up to see the face of the man who was always strong and never showed emotion. He felt something wet hit his cheek and run down, "A tear?" Beyond touched the droplet in thought. "Caspy?"

"They trained me, how to kill, but never live, how to destroy, never create. How to hate… But never love. How am I supposed to treat you the way I know you should be treated? How could I give you what you deserve when all I know is death and destruction." Caspian gently pushed Beyond away, "Get the groceries back to them, it's late… I'm going to walk back." Caspian slowly took a few steps away.

Beyond called out to him, "How? How will you get back?!"

Caspian gave a pained smile back towards Beyond, "I've found you before, I'll do it again… I mapped the route back. I'll be back by morning. I don't sleep much anyway, I'll be okay. Just go."

Beyond messed his hair up, growled loudly and got in the truck slamming the door and peeling around and speeding off into the jungle darkness. He dropped a single tear, "Fucking asshole."

Caspian lowered his gaze to the ground, "I'm so sorry, Beyond."
