~<em>John talking with D</em>~<br/><br/>John nodded and shook his hand. "Well it's a pleasure to meet you Daesung. The name's John Norrington. He then leaned back in his chair and listened thoughtfully to D as he spoke. Happily accepting the cigar. "Thank you, and yes I see your problem there and would be more then glad to help you with your little, Ehm... 'problem' so to speak." John glanced towards Splinter making sure that he was still sitting in place, smiling as he saw that he indeed was.<br/><br/>"Falling ehy..." He said thoughtfully as he inhaled on his cigar, blowing a few small smoke rings as he breathed out. "Well that is a problem indeed. How have you decided about the room arrangement then? I guess you and him..." He nodded towards Saki discretely. "... will be bunking up close to each other or in the same room. Just like me and Splinter. That would be the easiest way to keep them in check and watch them."<br/><br/>He leaned back in his chair, watching D to see if he had anything more on his mind that he wanted to discuss.<br/><br/><strong>~<em>Splinter sitting alone on a couch</em>~</strong><br/><br/>Splinter couldn't help but to feel as a child again. Being scolded for a bad thing he had done, although now he couldn't figure out what was so bad. It wasn't like he and John were an item. Hell, John wasn't even gay at least that's what it felt like. He began to lift his gaze, wanting to make sure that Saki was alright, but quickly changing his mind as he blankly stared down at his hands instead. They were shaking and he felt cold. Why wasn't he allowed to be with Saki?<br/><br/>Cause as he understood it D and Saki was in kind of the same position as he and John. they weren't a couple either, so why was this such a bad thing? He ran his fingers through his hair but they stopped halfway through as he leaned forward and rested his elbows against his knees. He was surprised as his sight suddenly grew dim and as he wiped his eyes tears got stuck on his hand. Where did they come from? Sure he wasn't crying, but the shakings were there none the less and he had no idea why.<br/><br/>All he wanted right now was for Saki to hold him, cuddle up next to him and tell him that everything was gonna be alright. Unfortunately he was all the way over on the other side of the room and the table with John and D was between them. What was he to do?
