"What are you thinking about?" Marcus murmured, sliding his arms around Seth's waist as he let his chin rest on his shoulder.

He knew he'd startled the young man with how he nearly jumped out of his skin at the gesture and the way his heart jumped and began hammering wildly in his chest. Unnoticeable signs to most, but Marcus' senses were much better than the average human's – but he still didn't usually sneak up on Seth so easily.

"I wish you would stop scaring me."

Marcus chuckled, "My apologies, but usually you're much more attentive. Is something wrong?"

Slowly, Seth's heartbeat began to slow into a much more normal rate. He took a few more moments to respond, clearly whatever was on his mind had been bugging him quite a bit. "I was just thinking about how lucky I am. After all, I wouldn't have met you without it."

Marcus thought about that, smiling. "I don't believe in that sort of thing. It was fate which brought us together, it was an inevitable meeting. No luck involved."

FIN.
