Bonding
Steven: Steven was a little surprised when Sylvio hugged him. Two small tears of joy escaped his eyes and rolled down his cheek as he returned the hug. He really appreciated Sylvio trying to soothe him, even though Steven had already reconciled."Th-thank you. I will be your family too" Steven murmured in Sylvio's shoulder. When they let go Steven quickly wiped his tears. "Soooo have you tried pink soda? If not we can go get some. Oooor we can chill here and one of my siblings can bring us some. Oooor we can chill at the beach. We can do whatever you want." Steven smiled.

Sylvio: He offered a faint smile wiping away his own tears slowly. "Ive never tried it before no. But im willing to at least try it. I think id prefer to stay in here if thats alright with you. My legs are still stiff and sore." He moved a bit on the bed again to sit with his back against the wall sitting next to Steven still legs crossed.

Steven: Steven walked to the door and opened it. A sister of his was passing by so he politely asked her to brin them 2 big cups of pink soda from the pavillion. "Sooo" Steven said as he returned to the bed with Sylvio. "Pink soda is enchanted. It tastes like your 3 favorite things! And it's super calming. For me it tastes like lemons, strawberries and fresh snow. I can't wait to see what yours will be" Steven said as a silly smile crawled its way to his face.

Sylvio: He took a moment to watch Steven move to the door keeping silent. As he sat back down and explained the premise of the pink soda he smiled a bit as he thought. "If i had to wager a guess itll taste like coffee cake, black tea, and lemon zest. Sounds like a funny combination." He let out a soft laugh covering his mouth with one hand to passively and subconsciously hide the smile.

Steven: "Oh come on, don't hide your smile" Steven grabbed the other boy's arm and removed it from his face. "It's beautiful, you know" he winked at Sylvio. Steven layed on the bed fully, next to Sylvio. "Was thinking of enchanting my ceiling to look like a starry sky. What do you think?" He asked, still  staring at the ceiling.

Sylvio: The reaper couldnt hide the blush that rose in his cheeks when Steven called his smile beautiful. He blinked slowly trying to compose himself before glancing up at the ceiling. "I think that would be beautiful, seeing the twinkling stars like that, although i still think i would prefer being outside to see them. Its so quiet at night and the stars are your only audience to whatever youre doing." He smiled again softly thinking about all of his midnight concertos that only he and the stars knew of.

Steven: The son of the love God watched Sylvio's expression as it seemed like he remembered something plesant. It was nice seeing Sylvio like that. Just a boy. Just his friend...no - just his family. Steven wanted to take Sylvio out for a walk but before he did that he wanted to reaorganise his love potions real fast because he'd been delaying that for the past 2 weeks. Just as he was about to put his strongest one down his hands tensed up and he poured nearly all of the liquid ontop of him. His Shirt and shorts were drenched in the pink potion and he had big spalshes on his arms and the floor beneath him. "DON'T LOOK. JUST TURN AWAY AND DON'T." He shouted, hoping it wasn't too late. How could he be so damn stupid. That wasn't like him at all. "I'm gonna go take a shower. Please don't get near my clothes." he said as he stripped down, completely naked and entered his bathroom to shower, leaving his clothes on the ground, nex to the puddle on the ground. He knew that wouldn't help as the potion touched his skin but it wasn't in his bloodstream yet so he wanted to decrese the effect as much as he could.

Sylvio: He had been watching Steven doing whatever it had been he was doing. He immediately looked away however when Steven started shouting. He was a son of Eros so Sylvio's best guess was it was a love potion of some kind he had spilled. When he heard the sound of clothing shifting to the floor he struggled not to look. He couldnt help but turn his eyes to take a quick glance at the naked man. He looked as good as Sylvio had expected and he felt his face burst into flames as he turned away again hoping Steven hadnt noticed him peeking.

Steven: Steven was hoping that Sylvio didn't look at him. He was not ashamed to get naked in front of him but was worried that if even a sliver of the potion had touched his skin, he could force affection on sylvio and he didn't want that. He wanted Sylvio to be free. The posing problem was though that he had to somehow avoid looking into Sylvio, even indirectly. That was going to be difficult but the eros boy already had a plan formed in his mind so he just continued soping his abs.

Sylvio: The boy sat there on the bed fiddling with the hem of his gloves as be waited for Steven to return from his shower. He wasnt sure what to do with himself. He longed for his violin but without it he was left with only his voice. He hummed softly at first hoping Steven wouldnt hear him in such a vulnerable pursuit. Soon humming wasnt enough and he began to sing low and silent. ''Open your eyes and see whats in store. A night full of stars and a land waiting to be explored.''

Steven: Steven turned off the shower and was about to open his bathroom door wide when he heard Sylvio's singing. It was beautiful so he stopped, water dripping from his body and just listened. Listened to the magical song the by was singing. He had to come out sooner or later though so he quickly dried out and entered his room. He forgot he was naked so he just went to his wardrope, picked up a pair of tight boxer-briefs and turned to face his friend, with his eyes closed for safety. "Your singing is simply divine, Sylvio! I would listen to you all day without getting bored!" he complimented the demigod.

Sylvio: Sylvios eyes went wide in shock as Steven spoke from his position his face burning crimson red he quickly covered his face with his hands. He shook his head mumbling into his hands, "i didnt know you could hear me!" He hadnt missed the sight of Steven in nothing more than a pair of tight boxers and with his eyes closed that image was burned into the back of his eyes not helping with the embarrassment he felt and the burning sensation in his cheeks.

Steven: The son of Eros quickly turned and took a sleeping mask from his wardrobe and put it on so he wouldn't see Sylvio. "I am so glad i heard you though. Your singing is amazing." Steven was a little sad he couldn't see Sylvio anymore but it was for his own good. "Untill the potion wears off you'll have to be my eyes though." As he said that they heard a knock on the door. Steven guessed it was his sibling bringing them their drinks. "Can you like get that?" Steven laughed and feeled his way to the bed. He accidently tripped though and fell right onto Sylvio. "Oh my god im so sorry" the love god's son struggled to get away.

Sylvio: He cried out in shock as Steven fell over on top of him and he froze in place. He struggled to compose himself before shifting out from under Steven and quickly making his way to the door. He opened it a bright blush on his face. "Th-thanks for the drinks." He quickly turned back into the room closing the door and resting his back against it for a moment breathing heavily. After his breathing slowed back to normal he approached Steven with the glasses of drink setting one down next to his feet and holding the other one out to Steven. "Here the drinks right in front of your face." He looked away himself trying not to stare at the nearly naked boy before him unable to keep his face from burning in embarrassment.

Steven: Steven chickled. "I might not be able to see you but i sure as hell can feel you. You're forgetting who my dad is haha" he laughed "Just relax, it's just me" he said as he tried sipping form the drink supposedly  in front of him but managed to only spill a little bit on the floor. He laughed and tried again, this time succeding. "Ahhh. Quickly though! Try yours! Tell me what it tastes like!" he urged the boy.

Sylvio: "Easy for you to say your not standing in front of an almost naked hunk," he mumbled softly before picking up his own drink and taking a small sip of it. It tasted of coffee cake and black tea like he had expected but the third flavor was all but normal. It tasted of bright mint and he looked at the drink in shock. "Why mint? Its delicious though." He smiled softly at the drink before setting it down again next to his foot not wanting the moisture to soak into his gloves.

Steven: "Hey i could have put a jockstrap you know" Steven laughed and as Sylvio was putting down his glass Steven remembered he didn't clean the potion from his floor. "Oh kust be careful not to step in that potion okay?" With that Steven grabbed Sylvio's hand and pulled it so he could fall onto Steven. "Better" he eclaimed and adjusted the mask on his face before he hugged the fallen boy,

Sylvio: "The wha-" his question was cut off as Steven pulled the reaper on top of him and he cried out in shock. He felt Stevens arms wrap around him and his mind went into reflex as he forced himself up and away with as much force as he could muster. Unfortunately the result was him on the floor directly in the puddle of love potion drenching the back of his pants and the palms of his gloves along with splashes on his tshirt. "D-did i knock over my drink or something?" He lifted his hand sniffing his soaked glove confused.

Steven: Steven's smile disappeared as he realised that Sylvio might have fallen in the puddle of love potion. The son of Eros cursed his procastinatination for cleaning. "SYLVIO!" was his immediate reaction as he quickly jumped up. "Sylvio if that was the potion - turn away from me and DO NOT put it anywhere near your nose, eyes or lips." How could he be so stupid as to leave the puddle in the middle of the room. "Well. Luckily my otions aren't as potent as my dad's. My dad's magic can only be broken through his brother Antheros' arrows. We won't need them but..." he bit his lips "we will need to wait for the potion to lose effect. There's another sleeping mask in my wardrobe. But i remind you again - don't look at me."

Sylvio: Sylvio frowned deeply at his mention of not putting it near his nose. "Uh Steven its too late if this is your potion i already sniffed it." He struggled not to look at Steven because he always followed the noises around him. He made his way to his feet and opened the wardrobe he had seen Steven open earlier and grabbed the sleeping mask from within and slipped it on. "What do I do about the potion soaked into my clothes though?" He didnt relish the thought of getting undressed near Steven even if the boy couldnt see him but he was afraid that would be his only choice.

Steven: "Sorry to disappoint you my friend but you gotta take them off" steven said with a slight chuckle in his voice as he enjoyed teasing Sylvio. "Oh don't worry....it's just us boys here" Steven winked by instinkt even if Sylvio couldn't see it. Steven moved on the bed to make room for Sylvio.

Sylvio: The reapers cheeks flushed crimson and he was ever more glad Steven couldnt see him as he stripped down to nothing more than the tight black boxer briefs he wore. He moved following what he knew of the layout of the bedroom but having only been here this one time he very quickly tripped over something he couldnt see and fell over landing length wise over Steven crying out in shock as he fell.

Steven: "Eager little fella ain't ya" Steven laughed as Sylvio fell ontop of him. He quickly felt his way thrugh the other boy's body and locked him in a tight hug, his chest rubbing Sylvio's. A small whimper escaped his lips but he quickly regained his composue and turned Sylvio arround so they were in a spooning position, Steven being the bigger spoon. Steven could hear the reaper's heart. The sound was almost intoxicating and the boy got lost in it

Sylvio: The reaper made a noise of shock and fear when he felt Steven touching him but when he felt their position shift so Steven was behind him we went stock still. After a moment of terrified breathing Sylvio regained his composure and settled into the strangely comfortable embrace. He was worried however as Steven would be able to feel every scar across his body and the proximity was making him feel strangely aroused, was the potion taking some kind of effect?

Steven: Steven felt every scar across the young demigod's skin. They felt odly comortable under Steven's fingers. Like they were meant for Steven to soothe them. Instinctively Stevn reached out and kissed Sylvio's back. Then he backed off knowing he shouldn't rush things with Sylvio. Especially if this was an effect of the potion. He wanted to let go of Sylvio but he couldn't so he just backed off aa bit and then tightened his embrace.

Sylvio: Stevens carresses sent shivers up the reapers spine and he struggled to not flee. When Steven kissed his back Sylvio felt his entire back stiffen. He wanted to flee. But when Steven backed away he calmed himself and reflexively curled his fingers around Stevens hand laying there with his eyes closed. He wanted to stay, whether that was becauss of the potion or a more innate desire he wasnt sure.

Steven: Even if the two demigods couldn't see each other, Steven could feel every inch of Sylvio's skin. He could't hear the reaper's heartbeat and breathing. As the older boy felt Sylvio's fingers curl up on his, he instictively did the same. This whole situation was too much for Steven and a big tent fomed in his boxer-briefs, pressing on Sylvio's back.

Sylvio: A small squeak of suprise eminated from the boy when he felt Steven reciprocate and wrap his fingers into the reapers. He liked the way Stevens hand fit into his almost perfectly. When he felt the other boy's manhood poking him he reflexively tried to squirm away from it but with Stevens tight grip all he managed to due was grind against the boy and he felt himself grow more arroused. His face flushed again as a sound no other mortal or immortal had ever heard before escaped his pale lips; the reaper had released a soft moan.

Steven: Steven's face flushed red as the other demigod moaned. The adorable, innocent moan sent shvivers down the older boy's spine. "Oh my Gods am I hurting you? I'm so sorry" Steven softened his grip and slowly let the other boy go, as he retracted backwards to give Sylvio some space. It was easy for children of Eros to fall under the effects of lust but that was way too easy. Steven had never been so infatuated. And he knew dang well it had nothing to do with spilled potion. It was Sylvio. His voice. His smile. His looks. His style. His whole being was making Steven's heart beat faster. For the first time in a very long time - Steven felt butterflies in his Stomach.

Sylvio: He finally squirmed free his breathing slightly ragged. "S-sorry ive never really uhm..." his voice trailed off and his face turned in the direction of the boy despite not being able to see him. Normally by now he would of left but something about Steven made him want to stay. His hand felt around the bed until he found Stevens. "D-do you mind if i still hold your hand?" His face was on fire like never before and his voice sounded quiet and for the first time a slight twinge of fear really crept into the reapers normal monotone.

Steven: "I'm sorry for being pushy" Steven apologised as he moved a bit to make space for Sylvio, without letting go of his hand. "Our dads would probably be so mad" he laughed as he remembered their dads' stupid feud. He didn't get why the two Gods will be so childish about it. How Steven saw it - Death and Love had so much in common. Both brought sadness, both could  bring people together. Both were a powerful stimul to keep going forward. Both were...something to be feared, but then again - both were something you can just embrace and be calm. Steven zoned out a bit as he thought of that and instinctively squized the reaper's hand lightly.

Sylvio: He lay back down beside Steven his hand wrapped in the other boys. "Im not sure why our parents hate each other so. Love is what makes life meaninful so maybe dads just jealous that people want what yours has to offer." He sat there for a moment a small frown on his face. "I dont hate you though, because of their feud. My father may ask that of me but i think thats the one request i cant abide. I like you Steven. Youre kind and considerate even if you get lost in your own aura sometimes." He lay there for another moment before rolling onto his side and moving a bit closer to rest his head on the other males pec his breathing kind of shallow as he struggled to break through his personal barriers.

Steven: "Haha I know right. Or maybe my dad is angry because death almost always separates love. I don't know. But i don't hate you either. Quite the opposite in fact. You're strong, ,and beautiful and kind...and so much more than anyone i've ever met" Steven sighed. He felt Sylvio's head on his pec and it felt right. Like they were molded for each other. Sylvio's hot breath on Steven's skin caused a tingle on the latter's skin that spread and crashed all over his body, causeing him to shiver a little. He felt happy.

Sylvio: Sylvio's breath hitched when Steven called him beautiful as he remembered the scars all over his body. He had no idea what to say so he just lay there for a moment until he felt Steven shiver. "Are you cold?" His voice was soft and quiet again and his arm reached across to cover the other males abdomen trying to give him some body heat.

Steven: "I can't feel cold when you're with me" Steven caressed the other boy's side lighty. He felt the son of Thanatos' hand on his abdomen. It was warm. It was soft. It felt like home. If Steven was a cat he would probably purr right now. "Hey...have you ever wondered what it would be if we were...normal? Like no Eros, no Thanatos, no godly gifts....just a human life." Steven asked as he continued to caress the younger boy.

Sylvio: The reaper took a long moment to answer before his soft voice echoed in the room. "Sometimes ya. I think about how my life would have gone had i never come here and lived like a normal kid. But then i think about all the people ive met, the places ive been, and the experiences ive had and part of me is thankful that my dad is a god." He paused for a second thinking before speaking again, "And i think if id just been a normal boy my life would have bored me. Do you think fate would have still let us meet and be friends if we were born normal?"

Steven: "I rarely think about it...but i kinda am glad that my dad is a God. Because that automatically brings me here, and here is my home. Without it - i have nothing...and no one. So in a way mundane life would be worse for me" Then he shut up and thought of how to reply to the other boy. "I mean hey, you know just as well as me that it's not fate...but yeah i think we would have met...one way or the other." Steven tightened his grip on Sylvio's hand a little. He wanted to make usre he wasn't dreaming. That this was real. And he was so happy it was.

Sylvio: The young male lay there for a moment a soft smile on his lips as he let the thought that maybe this was supposed to happen no matter what wash over him. "Im glad you were born to a god and we met here. You keep saying you didnt have anyone back in the outside world. But Im someone here for you now so dont worry." The reaper sighed softly feeling content, something about having his sight taken away had really helped break through his discomfort around other men. He lay there, silently listening to Stevens heart beating letting the steady beat resound in his mind.

Steven: ​​​​​As Sylvio said that Steven's heart skipped a beat. He moved his hand so that he was hugging Sylvio while the latter's head was still on his chest. "I'm glad that it happened too. I'm glad that YOU are my someone here you know. Even when we were on the quest...even then i felt...something. I didn't know what. And why. And how to express it so i teased you, for which i am sorry." Steven went silent for a short bit. "But now i know. Now i know why i felt like that when you left the quest. And why i felt like that when i didn't see you in camp...and what i felt...when i met now." Steven chucckled a bit. "It's a little ironic, you know. A child of a powerful love god, struggling with his own feelings. Dad has a weird sense of humor alright" he said as he enjoyed the embrace.

Sylvio: He blushed crimson as Steven spoke enjoying the feeling of him pulling him close. "A-are you trying to say you like me or something?" The reaper sounded like he was joking with a good friend, but he kind of hoped that Steven did like him, because part of him liked Steven immensely and he was certain it wasnt the love potion, because he may have teased the boy on the quest but he had only done so to cover his discomfort being near someone he liked in a way he wasnt used to.

Steven: ​​​​​"No man, I'm saying you owe me money" Steven joked "Of course i'm saying i like you! Why would i not? Look at you - you're amazing in every aspect of the word." As he said that Steven kissed the other boy's head lightly. He had never felt such a strong connection to someone before. It was so...euphoric. Like evrything he hoped it would feel. Steven and his siblings had inherited the powers of his dad and as he liked to think - part of his obligations too. To help people find their true love. Their other half. Their "meant to to be". And he couldn't help but wonder what that would feel like. The older boy smiled. He finally knew. He finally knew what it feels like to find a person he liked so much without using any of his godly gifts. *"Thanks, Dad"* Steven sent a silent thanks and a small prayer to his dad, before returning his attention to the object of his affection.

Sylvio: He chuckled a bit at Stevens remark and he froze in place as Steven kissed his head a small squeak of suprise escaped the boy. He blushed crimson and did his best to hide his face despite the fact that Steven wouldnt be able to see. He turned to raise the blindfold and look out the window and saw the sun was setting. "Oh. The suns suns gone down. I should really be getting back to my cabin. I know my room enough to visualize every shadow to get there from here (i think it can work like that if you frequent a locale enough). S-sorry Ill come back for my clothes tomorrow." He leaned in after letting the blindfold rest back over his eyes and placed a soft kiss on Steven's cheek before vanishing into a pool of shadow.

Steven: ​​​​​Steven felt a little sad as he felt the boy slip away from his embrace. But he knew he would see Sylvio tomorrow so it was alright. He reveled in the feeling of Sylvio's lips on his cheeks. When he made sure the younger boy was gone he took of his sleeping mask, still lying on the bed and threw it on the floor. He would have to clean tomorrow. Because now the butterflies in his stomach didn't let him be. He hugged the pillow he had and rolled around the bed with small giggles escaping his lips. He felt like a young schoolboy, having his first crush. Or a kid waiting to open his gifts on Christmas. The son of Eros just couldn't wait to see Sylvio tomorrow. So he just carlessly threw his cover on his waist and left for the dream plane with warm thoughts of what the next day would bring for the both of them.

Is this what going on a date is like?
Sylvio: The next day after a hot shower and some time to think and gather his feelings into a tight ball and hide them so he didnt seem like some school girl fawning over a hot boy Sylvio left his cabin dressed in tight black jeans, his spare pair of combat boots since he had accidentally left him shoes, a tight black thermal undershirt with a fluffy vest over the top of it and a scarf wrapped around his neck. He made his way to Eros cabin and knocked on the cabin door getting a few disgusted looks from the other campers inside when he asked for Steven. He stood there on the doorstep head tilted low to avoid eye contact with the other campers.

Steven: ​​​​​Steven got early that morning. He washed Sylvio's clothes and put them in a bag, cleaned the potion stain, tidied his room and even had time to go have breakfast. Just as he was finnishing a half-brother of his came to his room with a sour face telling him that someone was looking for him. Steven guessed it was Sylvio so he grabbed the bag with the boy's clothes and left for the front door of the cabin. Steven was no fool - even if he and Sylvio got along just fine - he knew darn well how his siblings would react. When he reached the door he greeted the boy "Hey there, Sylvio." he saw the boy's tilted head "Oh don't worry about them, they're all just a bunch of IDIOTS" he raised his voice on the last part so his siblings could hear as he escorted his friend outside the cabin.

Sylvio: The reaper couldnt help but smild when he saw Steven come out. He turned to follow his friend out hearing him call the other campers idiots. "I-its not their fault our cabins hate each other." He straightened his back standing up to his full height once they were free from the building. "Its good to see you Steven. I uhm," the boy hesitated a moment a slight pink coming to his cheeks, "I uhm m-missed you."

Steven: ​​​​​"No no, it's their fault for being idiots, that's all" Steven smiled when he heard the reaper's words. "I missed you too! And your adorable blush too!" Steven chuckled and bumped the other's shoulder. "Sooooooooo where do you  wanna go today?" Steven asked as he jumped in front of the boy, walking backwards. He just couldn't help it, Steven wanted to see Sylvio's eyes all the time.

Sylvio: He watched his seemingly energized friend with a faint smile. As the two walked he couldn't help but admire the boys features. Shaking his head as he heard Stevens question he pondered for a moment. "Im not sure. I dont spend a whole lot of time out of the cabin when i am here." He frowned for a moment not sure of what to suggest the pair do today.

Steven: "Hmmmmm" Steven was eager to take Sylvio out on a date. He wanted the boy to have fun. "The day is wonderful. Sooo want to go for a walk? Maybe later we can eat." Steven offered and hoped the other boy would agree as he had a plan as to where to take them after the walk. The son of Eros couldn't help but flutter evrytime their eyes met. It was like magic, but better. Way better.

Sylvio: He smiled his usual faint wisp of a smile and nodded. "Sure that sounds like a good way to spend the day." Since Steven was walking backwards it was easy for Sylvio as he lengthened his stride to move right next to the boy. He pulled his scarf a little to cover his cheeks and lower face and asked in a faint whisper, "But if we're gonna walk can you walk beside me and maybe hold my hand? Im worried youll trip walking like that." He cursed himself for such a weak excuse to ask to hold Stevens hand but he was nervous and couldnt just come out and say he wanted to walk hand in hand with the son of Eros. His usual anxiety about being so close to someone like this screamed at him to take three steps back and possibly even use that shadow there to run away, or maybe even that one there. He struggled to calm his mind and its desire to flee the scene, letting his heart have its moment in the sun for once.

Steven: "Why I thought you'd never ask" Steven said in a jokeful sophisticated manner. He slowly grabbed the other boy's hand as he trurned to walk with him. Sylvio's grasp calmed Steven's beating heart. It was like a spell...but it felt way better. In a desperate try to continue hearing Sylvio's voice Steven asked where they should go for their romantic walk. "Sooo there's the forest...but it's a little dangerous. Then there's outside camp near new Athens. Maybe along the beach?"

Sylvio: While holding hands seemed to calm Stevens heart it only made the son of Thanatos' beat harder. He sunk into himself slightly seeming to shrink into the vest he wore embarrassed and not uncomfortable but also hyper aware of the place and perdicament he was in. As Steven spoke Sylvio thought about each of the options. "The forest isnt wise. The nymphs there are mad at me for being so loud in the middle of the night. The beach sounds nice but theres bound to be a lot of people and they'll see you with 'me'." He made it sound like there was something bad about the Eros boy being seen with someone like him. "Ive never been to new Athens however, whats it like?"

Steven: "Hey - i would be honored and proud when they see me with you. I have nothing to be ashamed off and so do you!" Steven flashed a reassuring smile at Sylvio. He tightened the grip on his hand. "Hey. I'm here. I always will be...new family, remember?" Steven saw that maybe being a big crowd was gonna be hard for Sylvio so he decided to take him to New Athens for a tour. "Well New Athens is a town nearby. It's where older demigods that can't fight or have no other place go. It's pretty cool. Want me to take you there?" Steven asked his friend.

Sylvio: The firm grip of Stevens hand made Sylvio feel a bit better and he nodded slowly. "Yeah new family." He smiled from behind his scarf feeling a bit better at the idea of going somewhere with less people. "It sounds nice. Sure lets go pay New Athens a visit." He followed along beside his new friend trying his hardest to be stealthy about his admiring of his beautiful friend, comparing his beauty to the idea of playing Chopins prelude to raindrops in the actual rain.

Steven: That's all the afirmation Steven needed so he quickly spread his snow white wings and hugged Sylvio from behind. He launched himself in the air and then calmly soared the sky while firmly grasping his friend. Sylvio's body pressed against his felt so good but Steven couldn't allow himslef to loose concentration for even a sliver of a moment. New Athens wasn't far. Steven flew a bit faster and then landed them both at the entrance of the town. The son of Eros let go of the boy, but not his hand. He wanted to feel Sylvio that close again. But not anybody was a fan of hights so he decided to respect Sylvio's space more without actually loosing contact with him.

Sylvio: The reaper was a bit shocked at the sudden take off, instinctively grabbing onto Stevens arms. But once they got up and were flying he settled, watching the scenery pass below. He was more than aware of the proximity a slight blush creeping into his cheeks. As they landed he frowned a bit as Steven let go of him but was glad to still hold the boys hand. "That was beautiful. I dont get to see the world like that very often. Your wings are gorgeous Steven." He flashed a bright smile at the boy and before they started walking he leaned a bit into the boy to hug him and place a swift kiss on his cheek. "S-sorry i just wanted to thank you gor the beautiful flight." He pulled back a bright blush tinting his pale face.

Steven: As Steven hadn't hid his wings yet, they started grwing a bit pink as he heard the boy's compliment. Sensing that he quickly hid them and just the he felt Sylvio kiss his cheek. "I will take you on as many flights as you want. Just to see that beautiful smie." A blissful smile crawled its way across Steven's face. He felt so excited when with Sylvio and at ease at the same time. He led his friend around New Athens to show him around. They were walking for some time untill they stopped in front of a fancy resturant. "So...want to go eat? I don't know about you but I'm dying for food"

Sylvio: He smiled at Steven despite his insides screaming at being called beautiful. He followed along with Steven looking around the pair as they explored the new space. He liked the look of the place feeling oddly home in it. As the pair stopped in front of a restaraunt Sylvio nodded. "I havent eaten yet today so im famished. B-but what if they think we're on a date, wont that be embarrassing for you?" He looked away for a moment mentally kicking himself.

Steven: "Sylvio...we ARE on a date. And I LOVE it. They can only be jealous of me. for being on a date with such a gorgeous guy." Steven winked at Sylvio and let the pair into the resturant. It was beautiful place. The son of Eros saw a free table for two and led Sylvio to it. As he sat down he looked arround and saw that nobody was really paying attentio to them. Steven let out an inner sigh as that meant the Sylvio is mor elikely to be at ease here. He noticed that the reaper didn't enjoy crowds as much. But no matter what, Steven wanted to make his friend feel good. "What do you think of the place? It's beautiful in my opinion." as he said that he smiled at Sylvio and grabbed his hand again.

Sylvio: He felt his face burst into flames as Steven said that this was in fact a date. Be allowed himself to be lead into the restaraunt and took the seat at the table without saying a word. He felt glad no one was really watching the pair and he undid his scarf folding it up and placing it in an inner pocket of his vest. As Steven asked his question Sylvio was in the middle of exploring the venue with his eyes. It was so natural holding Stevens hand he didnt even notice it this time. He turned his eyes back to Steven and mumbled blushing softly, "N-not as beautiful as you." He wished hed kept the scarf on as his cheeks refused to stop being flushed pink.

Steven: "I'm only second to you" Steven winked. They held hands so much lately it was like Steven's drug. But he couldn't help it. Their hands were like molded for each other. Two pieces of the same whole. The son of Eros even dared to put his other hand on Sylvio's. "You ae completly adorable when you blush. And when ou don't blush. You are adorable all the time" he said as the waitress came to their table. "Hello, welcome to our resturant." she gave them the menus "I'll be back in a bit." She smiled as she looked at the two lovebirds. Steven gave one of the menus to Sylvio and opened his own. "I think i'll go for...steamed brocoli with melted chese and cream. Oh and a pink soda of course" he said as he looked at Sylvio. The natural light hit the younger boy's face perfectly and exentuated all his best features. It was a work of art. And Steven admired it like a fool admired the horizon.

Sylvio: He loved the feeling of Stevens hand on his and he tried to relax a bit, feeling like he was being too stiff. As the woman came and delivered the menus he was happy for the chance to hide behind it for a moment to catch his breath that he didnt realize he had been holding. He sat the menu down after a moment and smiled at the older male. "I think im gonna go for the salmon with fresh lemon and a sparkling lemon water." He watched Steven closely loving his sharp eyes and handsome features. His face turned even more crimson as he glanced at Stevens lips and wondered what it would be like to kiss him. He quickly lowered his face screaming inside. He wished more than anything in the world that the waitress would come back before Steven, whos godly parent made every lustful thought he had apparent, would have a chance to comment.

Steven: Steven could feel what Sylvio was thinking. It was as obvious as the sun outside. He decided not to comemnt though as he knew that the other male was still a bit shy. Instead of commenting, the son fo Eros just smiled. Just then the waitress came and took their orders. While they waited Steven started playing with Sylvio's fingers. They were soft. Steven wondered  if Sylvio's lips were as soft as his fingers. Or maybe softer? He wanted to kiss the boy so much. But he wanted to let Sylvio lead that. Steven didn't want to push anything onto the boy. After all he could always use his powers and force Sylvio to like him...but that's not what he wanted. And he was dang sure Sylvio wouldn't want that either. Besides Steven felt like heaven when he saw Sylvio's crimson face as the latter endulged a compliment or a romantic situation.

Sylvio: He thanked any god or goddess who was watching or listening that Steven hadnt said anything. He thanked the waitress as she left and he felt Stevens fingers playing with his skin and it sent shivers up his spine. He forgot his gloves had been left at the other boys cabin the night before. He sat there watching the boys features again and he couldnt help the soft smile that came to his lips gazing at the boy. As he sat there he made up his mind on one thing, he had definitely become infatuated with Steven. And for some reason despite general distrust of anyone male he knew somewhere deep down that Steven hadnt and wouldnt use any of his fathers powers to force anything. And he didnt have to. His sweet nature, beautiful features, melodic voice all made it to where he was feeling all of the infatuation on his own accord.

Steven: Eros' son could stilltell what Sylvio was feeling. And he was happy that Sylvio felt that way too. When their order arrived steven causally took a sip from his pink soda. His eyes suddenly widened as he realised that instead of the usuall Strawberry-Lemon-Snow taste...it had a new component now. His drink now smelled like...no it couldn't be....so fast? His face flushed  as he struggled to gain his composure. The son of Eros quickly put the cup down and dug into his food, not being able to look at Sylvio but still firmly holding his hand.

Sylvio: The reaper saw the shock in his companions eyes as he drank his pink soda and was a bit concerned. He took a small drink of his water and it sparkled across his tongue for a moment before he looked at Steven again. "Is something wrong with your soda?" He needed his other hand to cut his Salmon so he simply sat there for a moment waiting for Steven to reply.

Steven:  "No, I mean yes, I mean it's fine" Steven jumbled his words as he used his other hand to eat his dish. It was delicious. Then he realised his companinion would need both his hands to eat his food so he let go of Sylvio's hand. The son of Eros still couldn't believe it. He just sat there, eyeing his soda in disbelief. Sylvio's scent? In his drink? So quickly....that meant....so many things. Steven was still silent as he didnt know how to ract or what to tell the other boy.
