“I wouldn’t have it any other way” Carter said with a smile. He couldn’t imagine his life without Asa in it.  How would he survive? “You’d fine a way to carry on without me. You’re meant to survive” but he didn’t want to think too deeply into the matter. Their paths were bound to separate at some point and that path was no bout one they’d both need to travel down. But at least he had the pleasure of knowing it wouldn’t be either of their faults. Dying was a natural cause that either of them could stop. He was human after all and took comfort of the others arms tightening around him as he thought. In turn Carter rest his head against Asa’s shoulder and inhaled his scent with a soft sigh as he exhaled.<br/><br/>“I promise I won’t go looking for anymore information. If I need to figure something out, I’ll seek it out from you the next time. But don’t blame me for snooping. You understand why I chose to invade your privacy, even if it was a bad move. I needed to know and I’m glad I found the information about you. So... yes. I suppose you should feel more at ease. You did say there wasn’t anything else you were hiding. So why are you still nervous?” He asked drawing back and looking over Asa’s expression. Was there more to his story than he was letting on? Maybe he should have been so quick to believe the vampire. “Your life is history though. You’ve been through more than I could even imagine. Isn’t that significant to my studies?” He questioned noting that Asa’s anger from before had died down.<br/><br/>As for going outside, Carter knew Asa wouldn’t allow him to go alone. “No... I know you’re going to be with me. I just... I don’t have the same trust for people like I had before” he said honestly. But the world outside the walls had always pulled him in. Humans always wanted the things they weren’t meant to have. For Carter, he wanted to live a normal life without a care in the world. Normal humans were allowed to venture off into the day/night and live out their days. Exploring and climbing trees until their bodies simply couldn’t take anymore.<br/><br/>But for Carter, life had been completely different from the day he’d drew his first breath. He slipped out from Asa’s hold and started to pat himself down until he was happy with himself and gave Asa a small smile. “Far from perfect, but I accept” he said happily letting the other take his hand and intertwine their fingers together. He followed on at Asa’s side and looked up at the sky when the colours of the sky captivated him as the front door opened to welcome them both outside. There was something about the sky that seemed to always hold Carters attention, whether it was the sun rising, or setting. Or even the stars that seemed to blanket the sky, Carter could sit back and look up at them for hours on end. But his attention didn’t linger in the setting sun for too long. Having Asa’s fingers loosen and leave his own made Carter pause and set his eyes on his companion again.<br/><br/>“I’m nervous about venturing out. But that’s understandable giving the circumstances. I need to get out and face the world sooner or later. Besides... when was the last time we’ve been out together? I hold no memories of such events ever occurring Asa” he said stepping forward and gently placing his arms around Asa’s waist. “Please... I’d like to continue. If any kind of trouble starts to unfold, you can take me home. Even if you get a bad feeling about something, I’ll follow without arguing as long as I know you’ve allowed me to try and venture out passed our safety bubble” that seemed fair...
