I have to admit, there are some times I don't mind being in this City. Today was a wonderful day, and I'm thankful I got to enjoy it. I kinda hope it won't end at midnight, but if it does... then that's okay. I got one wonderful day out of it.

Mmm.

[He smiled faintly at that, tucking his hands into his pockets as he moves towards the door leading back down into the building.]

[Mamrou raised his eyebrow, glancing up.]

What is it, Ken?

... I don't want you trading for it. The prices are too high. Besides, things aren't so bad here, as long as you're with me.

There are ways to lower the price.

He just shook his head and pulled Mamoru against his side as he headed back into the building.

"That's still too much bargaining."

Mamoru shrugged, settling against him.

"We're going to fix it."

He leaned down a little to bury his face in Mamoru's hair.

"... keep me warm tonight? Please?"

Mamoru nodded, sliding an arm around Ken's hips to draw him closer.

He let himself be pulled closer, even smiling down at the younger man, but the smile was a little hollow.

Mamoru wasn't fooled. He tugged Ken toward the bed, nodding. "Go lie down."

He did as he was told, more than happy to flop on the bed, watching Mamoru.

Mamoru curled in with him a moment later, tucking the blankets around them to keep warmth in.

"Do you want to go home?"

Ken curled up close to Mamoru, tucking his arms loosely around his waist.

"I can't stay here forever. I have to go back sooner or later."

"Why?" Mamoru rested his chin on Ken's shoulder. "You used to think the City was better."

He shrugged just enough to make Mamoru's head shift a little.

"I still like it here, other than the bad curses and being dead. I guess I just like it back there, too. The world isn't too bad a place when you're sane, I guess."

Mamoru nodded slightly, holding back any comment on whether the world was a bad place or not.

He sighed and hugged Mamoru a little closer.

"... I know I'll lose you if I ever go back and I really don't want that, even though I know I won't have a choice."

he did have a choice, but he wasn't going to say so. He nodded, curling in.

Even being dead, Ken felt content at that moment, Mamoru tucked in close against him.

"... you know I love you, right?"

"Yes." Mamoru pressed in, kissing his neck.

"Good."

He smiled a little, letting his head roll back a tiny bit.

Mamoru curled in, closing his eyes softly.

Ken let his eyes slide closed, one hand moving to stroke gently over Mamoru's back.

"Sleep." Mamoru pressed in, sighing.

"I will."
