Sam blinked open his eyes when Ryan hugged him around the waist. He brushed bangs out of Ryan's face and smiled down at him. "You didn't scare me. I'm just worried about you." He knew better than to ask what he'd been dreaming about. Some people coped better by talking about and reliving the experience over and over until the mind healed better. It wasn't a permanent fix but it was a better way of healing. However, he wasn't Ryan's therapist and he hadn't been with him long enough to even suggest it. Sam smirked at the innocent question. "Well, I ask some friends at work. I've worked with these guys for many years, and they all know I'm gay. It's sort of like don't ask, don't tell, but I never had to hide my sexual preference and I've never been into any of my friends that way." He cleared his throat. "Anyway. I told them what happened and asked for their input and they told me that if I..." Sam trailed off a moment and fidgeted..."really cared about you, that I should fight to be with you, so I did."<br/><br/>He didn't know what else to say, because there was more to it. His eyes flicked over to the basket he'd brought, wondering if it had been cheesy. Then he shook his head. "Go to sleep. I'm not going anywhere." That and he was slightly tired himself.<br/><br/>~~~~~~~<br/><br/>Rai shook her head. "I've never been able to carry, and there's no way in hell I would stay female that long anyway." Though if one were to get down to the nitty gritty it was possible, had Rai been fertile, for him to carry a child to term even as a male. But without some magical influence Rai could never bear a child. Nor did he want to. He'd never had the opportunity to actually be a father, and he didn't think he ever could be a good one.<br/><br/>She was pulled from her thoughts by Kane's hand pressing more firmly against her panties, making her wanton. She pouted and lowered her ears, glaring at him coyly. "This house is spotless. I'm slightly OCD." She let out a squeak when he slapped her ass and huffed. "Naive." She cocked out her hip and planted a hand on it, pulling away from him. "Hmm. I suppose I can put on a good front." Her lips quirked, because naturally she was anything but naive. Her shyness had quite thoroughly dissipated.<br/><br/>After a slow, steady breath she put on a good face, tucking a lock of hair behind her ear, then bit her lower lip. The lipstick was thoroughly smudge proof and long lasting, and yeah she did sometimes wear makeup when male. "I'll do my very best, Mr. Kane," she said, scuffing a foot along the ground. She wasn't sure if he wanted her to call him that but it had been a damn long time since she role played.
