Milo Rahal smiles and kisses his fore head, and gently tugs the blankets over him. "Feel free to explore when you wake up. I may not be here, or may be asleep. And I sleep like the dead." He says with a smile. "You can raid my closet for fresh clothes if you like."
Aequitas Et Veritas smiled softly, nodding. "Gracias... Muchos Gracias, mi estimado. I shall try not to wake you up."
Milo Rahal chuckles and kisses his lips. "I guarantee you won't. Sweet dreams." He smiles slightly and exits the room, letting Aequitas get soem sleep.

Gamble had refused to leave his apartment for several days, being rather afraid of the curse of bad luck his clumsy mistake had placed upon him; he had after all already taken a bullet to the shoulder and had no desire to tempt fate any further. With this in mind he decided that a warm, relaxing shower would be best, and so he was currently in the bathroom of his small apartment, leaning lightly against the back wall as water poured down from the shower head.
Despite this, he couldn't relax as a certain demon seemed to always be on his mind, and with a small groan he shook his head, rubbing his forehead with the tips of his fingers, grumbling quietly to himself. "We need to just... Have a talk... A nice, normal talk with no drama... Plus Darius makes the best tea..." -c-

Gamble He smiled slightly at this, rolling his shoulders back as he turned the water off, stepping out of the shower. "Shame I can never seem to catch him alone..." He added as he picked a fluffy black towel from the rail, wrapping it round his hips with a small yawn, moving to leave the bathroom.
Darius sighed softly, running his pale fingers through his dripping hair as he stood underneath the powerful and raging hot shower, deep crimson eyes closed as his glasses where abandoned onto the sink outside of the shower cubical of his room near by the bar that he was renting for the time being. Breathing an air of condensation onto the glass door that was already misted, but decided to draw a lanky stick man with broken wings. The demon gave another sigh, returning back to stroking his soft hands across his shoulders to wipe away the soap that was clinging to his pale skin, across the skin above his heart, another strange scar lingered, that matched the pattern on the back of his hand, only, it seemed to have been there for years.-c-
“
His eyebrow twitched when he started to feel a pull upon the scar over his heart, swallowing heavily and harshly as he looked downward at it, fingers outlining it as he could feel the urge to attend to Gamble's wish arising, he was needed. In a panic, the demon stopped the hot water of his shower, crashing out of it and snatching up a simple, rather uncomfortable white towel to quickly tie around his waist.
The demon didn't even have time to grab his glasses before he disappeared into a flurry of black feathers, he was drawn to where ever Gamble was, there was no escaping it. Appearing not too far away from Gamble, in another flurried mass of black feathers, breathing heavily as he squinted around slowly.-c- ”

Gamble was in the process of re-applying bandages to his shoulder, eyes narrowed as he struggled to do the task with one hand at such an awkward angle, eyebrow twitching in irritation. "Come on... Work with me, here. I need you bandage." He grumbled before he blinked up at the flurry of black feathers, yelping loudly in a none-too masculine fashion, topping back onto his rear.
As the feathers cleared and he saw Darius standing there he blinked slowly, a red blush creeping to his features as he realized he was wearing nothing to a towel, bandages tangled around his body. He then realized that the demon was also in the same of undress and he let out an odd, chocked gasp before hurriedly clumsily to his feet.
"D, Darius! You're-I mean-Why are you? Oh God." He groaned, turning away and covering his cheeks as his blush grew and seemed to spread over his body in embarrassment. "Erm... N, no! No I'm fine, you don't need to worry but um..." -c-

“
He trailed off, turning back around slightly with his gaze fixed determinedly upon the demon's face, it taking a great degree of self-control to stop his eyes wandering lower. "Why are you here> Not that I'm not happy to see you, I'm always glad to see you... Its just... Unexpected and... Well..." He cleared his throat, gesturing awkwardly at their towel-clad forms.
”
Darius sighed softly as he listened to Gamble stutter, closing his eyes gently as he shook his head from side to side. "Honestly Master Gamble...you believe that I am so un...wait...what are you wrapped in..?" Darius questioned, eyes still squinting finely at the smaller male, hardly able to see his eyes properly without his glasses as he took a step forward. Removing his hand from the towel that was tied firmly around his hips, trying to rest one hand onto Gamble's non injured shoulder to try and get a better look at him, trying his best to focus.
"Is this bandages...? What happened? Master Gamble?! You didn't tell me who shot you!" Darius said hurriedly, eyes widening slightly as his shoulders tensed up, glaring at the smaller male, waterdroplets hanging onto the demon's pale body and strips of hair, not being able to evaporate into the air, for...reasons unknown.

“
The demon waited, still slightly panicked due to his Master's injury, he was slightly angry behind his struggle to see, the fact that anyone thought that they could hurt his master...-d-
”
Gamble opened his mouth to reply to the initial question, however he was silent as Darius moved closer, mouth hanging open dumbly for a moment before he blinked and closed it, looking off to one side to avoid looking at the... Rather attractive figure in front of him.
The young man looked back only when Darius had finished speaking, a slight frown coming to his features at the glare, lifting a hand to pat the demon's that rested on his shoulder. "Ah... I, I'll explain everything, you can ask me whatever you like and... And I'll tell you but... But could I..." He trailed off for several seconds, eyes following a droplet of water that dripped from a strand of hair, watching it trail down Darius' cheek, neck, over his chest and down to- "Clothes!" He suddenly shouted, snapping his head back up, blushing furiously again. "We need clothes!" -c-

“
With a rather audible swallow he pressed his back against the wall to edge past the demon, pushing open a door leading into his bedroom where rustling could be heard. "I, I ah... I don't know if... If you'll like anything but... But you're welcome to wear whatever you like if it fits..." He said quietly through the door before he came back out, clad in frantically grabbed jeans and an over-sized black jumper, fingertips just visible over the sleeves.
"I'll be... In the living room whenever you're ready..." He added in a somewhat breathless tone, thinking about adding 'Would you like some tea?' but then he reasoned that Darius would probably want to make it himself, and so left it there, walking into the main room in a strange forced walk. ”

"If nothing fits you... Then... Well... You could go back to your house if you need to..." He paused to chuckle very quietly. "I wouldn't want you to get cold in just a towel..."
”
Darius continued to frown slightly as Gamble suddenly shouted clothes at him, taken aback slowly as he gave a short nod, waiting to make sure that Gamble was fashioned correctly and comfortable, before he disappeared, leaving a few solitary feathers along the floor, it just took him a few seconds to quickly jump into a pair of neatly folded black trousers, grab his usual white dress shirt and flit back.
He had forgotten his glasses still, as they came last next to clothes, he didn't want to spend any time away from Gamble when he was needed so urgently. The demon returned back to where he once stood, leaving another few feathers upon the floor, he would have to make sure he cleaned them up aftward...squinting around slightly, the demon walked toward a wall, keeping one hand resting upon it while he tried to figure which way was to the kitchen, leaving his shirt open, and black hair still slightly wet as it was pushed forward into his face a little.

Gamble , after several moments of not seeing Darius grew slightly concerned and so he stood, a hand pressing lightly against his sore shoulder as he called quietly. "Darius! Are you alright?" He pushed open the door, blinking as he saw the demon struggling to find the way without his glasses, and he couldn't stop the small smile than came oto his features as he walked towards the other man.
"You could have asked for a hand, you know... I'd like to help you when you need it." Without waiting for a possible complaint to this he took one of Darius' hands, walking backwards towards the living room. "You forgot your glasses... Still it doesn't matter, its only me here." He said in a slightly embarrassed tone, placing the demon's hand carefully on the arm of a chair before sitting in one of his own, wincing slightly as he banged his shoulder.
"Ah, clumsy." He grumbled before looking to the demon. "So... I take it you want to ask me some things...?"

Darius blinked quickly when he heard Gamble speaking, feeling a little silly having to hold his hand to get around, not all that used to it if he was honest. Though, when the demon came to the offering of a chair, he tried to offer a smile, did he forget to mention to his contract how strongly he disliked being sat down or laying down for too long? He kept himself standing behind the chair though, smiling softly at Gamble's features.
"Yes, Master Gamble...your shoulder...is it...I mean....I am finding it rather hard to be someone you can depend on....when I can not get to you when you most need me." Darius admitted gently, looking downward at his hands. "I do not wish to anger you with my ignorance My Lord, but, please dont be angry with me for being unable to aid you..."
Darius felt so much like a faliure right there and then, giving that they hadn't even conversed properly about the 'feeling' thing the other evening.

Gamble closed his eyes as Darius spoke, sensing the feelings of failure on the demon's words, a frown coming to his features. He felt a great pull to simply rush forward and give assurances that everything was fine, that there are nothing to apologize for... But he resisted the urge and took a deep breath, trying hard to speak in a firm yet caring tone, that way he imagined a Master ought to sound... How successful he was however, he was unsure.
"Darius... You can't be with me every minute of ever day... If I fall over in the street and you aren't there to stop me, would that be a failure as well? No, of course not... I know that you wa-" He swiftly corrected himself. "-That your duty is to protect and guard me, and I'm thankful for that... And if there is ever a time when I'm worried something bad will happen, then I will call for you... Alright?" -c-

“
He then shuffled, a hand moving to rest on is shoulder as he looked sideways at it. "As for my injury... It was out of nowhere, the ones who did it were not after me, I was simply caught in crossfire... There was nothing anyone could have done; It was entirely my fault for dropping my cards..." He then turned back to Darius, placing a truly heart-felt smile on his lips, hoping that despite not having his glasses, the demon would see or hear it in his next words. "Don't blame yourself for things you can't control; You're a wonderful servant, and I... I couldn't ask for better." His attempt at a firm tone faltered slightly as he finished, however for the most part he was fairly pleased with himself.
”
Darius looked upward, listening to every word that Gamble spoke as if it was a lifeline, something that pulled him quickly out of his would be spiral of depression. The demon brought a gentle smile onto his face, he was glad that Gamble understood, yet he did wish that he could be with his Master as much as possible, but when his brother....Darius didn't even want to think of that, letting it fall quickly out of his mind as he moved toward the side of the table, trying to reach a hand outward to rest atop Gamble's head, knowing where it was, as he wasn't that blind.
"I appreciate your words, Master Gamble...and wish that I could do something to help you gain a better relationship with your Lady..." He said slowly, closing his eyes to think deeply, water dampening the shoulders and collar of his white shirt, having yet to button it up, but seeing as there was more pressing matters at hand, the demon hadn't even had it cross his mind.

Gamble [color=maroon]felt relief as his words seemed to do the trick, smile brightening as the demon moved towards him, chuckling very quietly as a hand was placed atop his head, and he shook his head at Darius' words. "Honestly... i think it is just time... I've been reading the cards and things are still rather bleak... But still-" He paused as he stood, hands lifting to begin buttoning the demon's open shirt, a blush creeping to his cheeks as he did so. "-You're here, so I'm not too worried about anything terrible happening..."
There was then silence for several moments as he continued to button the shirt, bending down slightly as he reached lower buttons before he eventually spoke again. "I just think that I should stay here for a while... Limit what damage I could do, you know?" He then finished, standing straight again before he cleared his throat, gesturing to the shirt. "Ah... Not sure why I did that... Sorry if I... Invaded personal space or... Something." He said with an embarrassed chuckle, scratching the back of hi

Darius gave a small blush too as he looked downward to the male helping with his buttons, offering a slight grin as he pushed his fingers through his hair to keep it away from his face. "Thank you....Master Gamble, I must say that I rather look like I have just came out from one of those, dance socials." Darius said softly, sounding, a lot older than he actually looked with his description of clubs and parties. The only party that Darius had been too, was self arranged balls, and nothing was ever going to over step the black tie and smart evening wear.
"My apologies on that respect as well, as soon as I felt your need for me..." He trailed off, resting a hand over the area of his heart, looking off toward the side. "It pulls at me, sort of like a rope....t'is rather difficult to explain to you..."
