the sound of the clock rang in the teal headed boy’s ear. he was quiteeee zoned out. though .. his eyes just so happened to lay on the boy infront of him as he thought of various amount of ideas.
^should i try it?
^i don’t know how long id even have to finish the potion before ..
^before ..
^i should just do it now ..
^when he’s most vulnerable ..

superfish frowned.
he’d only know him for a few days damn it,
so why does he feel so obligated to protect him?
….
oh jeez why should he care? he’s just a mere human.
^hmm … i do wonder if the table is too uncomfortable, maybe i should move him over to the bed …
his hand reached out to the tan boy who was fast asleep. he hesitantly, yet swiftly cupped his face. superfish’s eyes drifted to his shut eyes, then his hair, then his … lips …

^god. why do i keep getting this weird feeling in my chest?
superfish retracted his hand, gripping his chest in an attempt to stop the odd throbbing feeling inside.
he continued to study the dozed off boys face, catching a quick furrow in his brows, then a frown, then going back to a relaxed state a few seconds later.
^nightmares .. ?
“dj.”
superfish muttered.
the boy infront of him went from soft breathing to a harsh snore.
superfish could feel his eyelid twitch in annoyance.
“dj!”
superfish yelled.
the other boy stopped snoring, and was back to softer breathing.
his eyes fluttered open.
a soft “hmm..?” came from the newly awakened boy.
superfish smiled, dj stared. for a few seconds. and then a few seconds more.
dj admired the boy’s beautiful sparkly eyes. it amazed him everytime without fail. they stood out especially at night — they seemed to glow.
“you gonna keep staring?” superfish’s smile grew wider.
“oh! uh sorry … sorry ..” dj’s eyes widened, flustered.
“heh.” superfish giggled. “alright, umm, quick question for you.”
the brunette rubbed his eyes “yeah?” and yawned.
“you’ve been having nightmares lately, haven’t you?”
superfish’s tone was serious, his arms crossed around his chest. dj couldn’t help but feel like this resembled those police interrogation videos he’d seen on instagram. he giggled internally.
“uh, yes, how did you ..?”
dj didn’t even have enough time to react and the other boy had him pinned down on the floor.
“okay. i need to remove your clothes.” superfish blankly stated.
“excuse me?!” dj’s eyes widened as big as humanly possible, his eyebrows illustrating a sight of worry and fright.
“you’re not doing —“ he pushed the other off him, scurrying away, “anything you idiot!?”
dj’s face turned hot.
“come on! i just need to check for something, i won’t do anything odd.” superfish crawled back up to the brunette.
“i promise.” he whispered.
both locked eyes for a moment, though dj immediately looked to the side, completely flustered. superfish stared, eager to get a confirmation that he could start his search.
dj’s lips formed a line, then a crooked smile, then a line again.
“sooo…?” the teal haired boy persisted.
“okay, fine! just don’t do anything weird!”
“heh …” superfish grinned, though it turned into a frown quickly “hey wait — stop saying stuff like that would you?! i would never do anything weird to you damn it!”
dj squeezed his eyes in utmost embarrassment. his head was filled with way toooo many odd things. and now that superfish was now currently attempting to unbutton his shirt, well, the thoughts weren’t getting any better.
the taller male awkwardly fumbled with the buttons on the other’s shirt. he struggled. immensely.
dj felt the others frustration and instantly snapped out of the daze he was in. hovering his hand over the other’s.
“hey, i got it..”
dj tenderly dismissed his hand. superfish couldn’t help but feel that sharp throb in his chest again at the touch of the others hand against his..
dj chuckled and unbuttoned his shirt, superfish watched as he got to the last button, finished, and threw his shirt to the side.
the teal haired boy inhaled as he saw the sight infront of him. his was oh so …
wait a minute.
superfish immediately pounced on dj again, pinning him to the ground once again. superfish sat in his lap, his eyes laid on a black circular mark on dj’s abdomen.
“you…”
dj scanned the other boys face. he seemed. worried?
“what?”
superfish moved his hand over the tan boy’s stomach, gently caressing then rubbing the marking.
“oh that? it’s noth..”
dj immediately stopped in his tracks, now seeing the worried expression on the others face. which is truthfully, a rare sight.
“fuck.”
superfish’s eyes formed thin lines.
he touched around the rest of dj’s upper body and face, turning his head to the right, then the left.
“hey! hey! what’s —“ dj cried out.
superfish’s thought to investigate the matter more, so he acted without thinking — his hand suddenly moved down to the hem of the other’s pants.
“what’s wrong?! and don’t — don’t pull those down .. idiot?! do you want me to flash your ass?!”
“markings. where else do you have them?”
“no where else! just my stomach! now .. get .. get off!”
and so he did. superfish stood up, walking over to the wall and leaning over it. sighing.
dj scurried over to the corner where he threw his button up, hurrying to put it back on. feeling exposed.
“we need to start the extraction of the core as soon as possible.” superfish stated firmly, his expression steely.
“b..but the potion? we’re yet to get the last 2 objects needed?! ”
“it makes sense now … you’ve been so fatigued lately .. and now on top of that … nightmares ..”
“hey! the potion?!”
“and markings .. this isn’t good ..”
“hey! listen to me dammit! what’s going on exactly?!”
superfish raised his hand toward the other, green magic seeping through his fingers, eyes glowing a bright gold.
“h-hey WAIT!—“
