Hey guys, HAPPY 4/13 YOU GUYS! I'm back again with another chapter in honor of the date! Anyways I'm gonna answer a couple questions I got in reviews.

Silvinukas: John wasn't the one watching Dave before, it was his supervisor. So no, John didn't know that Dave was cutting himself.

StarWolf33: Oh yes. Heellllll yeeesss. We're going to see some really great angel power action and all that soon, starting a little bit around chapter 8. I have big plans for John. ;)

Cylonblaze: Archangels are not allowed to show their true form to humans, and strong relationships with them are inevitable, but frowned upon. So if you were an archangel and developed a relationship with a human, your peers wouldn't necessarily be happy about it, but you won't be punished. Though if it is a homosexual relationship, many believe that it is frowned upon, and that you can get punished for it. But this is the belief, and not necessarily the truth. To answer the rest of your question, each archangel has similar powers, but they have powers unique to them too. With John, because he was the Heir of Breath in Sburb, I'm using that here. His class of archangel is Heir, and he can control the wind, and use it to his and Dave's benefits. That is his unique power, but like all archangels, he has ways of manipulating situations and taking action to protect whom he is supposed to protect. So let's say Dave was going to get into a car crash, John could take control of the wheel of Dave's car, and the wheel of the other person's car and swerve them out of the way, not only saving Dave, but thus saving the other person as well. Being an archangel, John would do that for anyone if he could, but mostly Dave, since it is his job to protect him. (Sorry, long answer.)

Back to the story you guys! :D


It seemed like no sooner had you told everyone about your party on Monday, it was Friday, and your party was tomorrow. You were very excited, and you decided to invite Dave over to set up, if he wanted. You felt a little childish being excited over something so small, but you never had these in Heaven. You didn't have friends or family or anything, so all of this meant a lot to you.

As soon as you had a moment alone with Dave, you asked him.

"Hey Dave, wanna come over tonight and help me set up for tomorrow?" you ask.

"Sure," he replies, knowing his Bro wouldn't mind. In fact, his Bro liked it better when Dave wasn't around. It sounded depressing, but Dave dealt with it, and you made sure he dealt with it in a healthy way. Or at least you tried to, you didn't want to butt in too much and scare him away.

"So," he started, tearing you from your thoughts. "Who's all coming to your party?"

"Oh. Uh, there's you, Jade, Rose, Kanaya, and Karkat. And Vriska might be coming, as well as Terezi," you reply, trailing off when you saw him flinch at Terezi's name. He played it cool though.

"Wow, you just started here, and already you have a large crowd of friends," he said.

"Oh, yeah...well some people are friends through friends. Like Karkat is bringing Sollux and Vriska is bringing Terezi. I think Eridan is also coming, somehow."

"Interesting," Dave said nonchalantly. After a few moments of silence, he began speaking again, but only seemed to be half there.

"I used to be friends with them. That is until Terezi and I broke up. I drifted away from them then, and some of them were really cold towards me. I guess I still considered some of them friends, like Rose and Jade, but I still didn't really talk to them anymore."

"Oh," was all you could manage. "I'm sorry about that," you tell him, now understanding why he flinched at Terezi's name. "I could ask Vriska to leave Terezi behind," you offer.

Dave shakes his head. "No, it's okay. I need to face my shit and get over it."

"You're still not over her?" you ask, astounded.

"Oh no, I'm definitely over her. I'm just not over how I was treated by everyone. They thought I was a total dick for dumping her, but what they don't know is that she was dating Gamzee on the side. I agreed to keep quiet about that as long as she kept my secret quiet. She did, so I did too. The others are still in the dark."

Dave takes a deep breath once his rant is over, and turns to go.

"I gotta stop home and get some stuff. I'll stop by your house later," he says, and leaves you.

You let everything he told you float around in your head for awhile as you walk home. You realize that Dave had just opened up to you majorly, and you had barely said anything to him in return. You decided you were going to try talking to him again tonight and show a bit more sympathy to him. You were going to show that you cared, because he was honestly your best friend, and you really did care about him. And maybe you didn't have much experience with human emotions, but you had a feeling that maybe you cared a little more than you should.


You leave John standing dumbfounded in the hallway. You had just opened up to him like a chump, and gave away way more than you should have. God, you were so stupid. You hurried home to get your stuff, but you would spend awhile there before heading to John's. You wanted to finish the track you were mixing for him for his birthday. As soon as you get home, you avoid Bro, pack your stuff, and mix that track. All too soon, it's time to leave.

You walk to John's house, as it's only a bit farther away from your house than the school. Once you get there, you knock on the door, and John greets you excitedly. You enter the house and take your shoes off, setting your stuff near the entrance to the living room.

"So, are we gonna decorate or make food or what?" you ask John.

"Dave! This party isn't for a five year old! We're just gonna have snacks and pizza and stuff," he tells you.

"Well then why did I need to come over to help set up?"

"Well I just need help rearranging furniture and stuff. And then I guess we should set up a snack table tomorrow morning," John answers.

"Oh, okay. Well let's start moving furniture then. After we're done with that, I want to show you something."

"Okay."

With that, you and John get to work rearranging the living room. You also set up John's stereo system so you can play your track.

"Hey John, if you want, I've got some music you can play for your party," you tell John, flashing your iPod and setting up its dock.

"Oh, that'd be really cool!" John says. You finish setting up the stuff for the music, and help John finish pushing the couches and tables around, and pretty soon, you're done.

Once John deems everything fit, he brings you up to his room, suggesting you two watch a movie on his laptop. You nod at him and sit on his bed as he sets up his absolute favorite movie, Con Air. John then heads down to the kitchen to make some popcorn, and you sit through the previews. By the time the menu screen pops up, John had come back with the popcorn.

"Are you all ready?" he asks you, settling on the bed next to you. You swallow, your heart picking up its pace at someone being so close to you. You still weren't used to this kind of close proximity with others.

After a moment, you nod. "Yeah."

"Alright, awesome," John says, and the two of you begin watching the movie, eating popcorn the way through.


You didn't realize how much closer you had gotten to Dave since the beginning of the movie compared to now. The ending credits were rolling, and you were literally curled up against Dave. He didn't seem to mind very much; He had his arm around you, after all. You were very relaxed, and didn't want to move. Maybe you could pretend you were sleeping...

You closed your eyes and transitioned your breathing, and you felt your shoulder shake a bit, and heard Dave calling your name. You ignored him, and continued pretending to be asleep.

Eventually Dave stopped trying to wake you, and even pulled you a bit closer. The two of you were sort of spooning, and you felt your face heat up, but ignored it mostly. You might as well enjoy the moment while it lasted.

It wasn't long before you were really out like a light.

You woke out of your sleep just a few hours later, because something was poking your backside. Dave's arms were tight around your waist, and if you didn't know better, you'd say he was panting. Of course, you didn't know better, so you wriggled around a bit until you could turn to check. Your breath hitched, because Dave was panting. His eyes were shut tight, face red, with a sheen layer of sweat on his hairline.

"Oh god," you breathed, realizing what was happening. now you pretty much regretted curling up to him last night. Of course, you would regret it completely if there wasn't a small part of you that was enjoying this. You were certain that you liked Dave, after all, and you were currently a sixteen year old human who couldn't come up with a reason not to enjoy this. Still, it didn't mean you weren't nervous.

You fought with yourself for awhile about what you were going to do, and eventually you came to a conclusion. You rolled over to face Dave completely, and you swore your face was just as red as Dave's as he unconsciously rutted against you in his sleep.

You didn't really know what to do as Dave clung to you. You were born an angel, and you didn't get any lessons about these things. There were quite a few mornings where you had woken up embarrassingly hard, and not knowing what to do. You had to figure it out yourself, and you'd say you were still pretty inexperienced. Even so, with this, you hoped you could just sort of let instinct take over.

A moan from Dave brought you back to reality, and you realized that what with Dave's rubbing, you were in the same predicament as him. You blushed hard, but wrapped your arms tightly around Dave, pulling the two of you even closer together. Biting your lip and ignoring the nervous fluttering in your stomach, you began moving your hips in time with the blonde's next to you.

Your face heated again when you heard Dave whimper, and you had to bite back a moan of your own. Your breathing was ragged, and Dave's was coming hard and fast.

"Mmm...John," you heard Dave moan, and you froze. Upon your movements stopping, Dave's own slowed, eventually coming to a stop as well. You wondered if he was...done. You certainly weren't, but you weren't even sure if you wanted to finish right here net to Dave. Despite this, you experimentally pushed against him, and immediately you could tell that he didn't finish, but he only pushed back against you a little, half heartedly, so perhaps his dream was over.

As if to prove your point, Dave let go of you and rolled over in the opposite direction of you. You sighed and rolled over away from Dave as well, willing your embarrassing erection away.
