Cori?

That's okay.

[Another squeeze to his shoulders.]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

[And he's quiet again]

I hate losing friends.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

I know.

[There's that guilt again. For Tony, Ellington, Gordon, and now Jack. THough some individuals are more important than others!]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

[Brings his knees up and sets his head on them]

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

[Leaning in close to Blue and just petting his hair.]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

I messed this whole thing up.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

A mistake's a mistake. We all fucked up.

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

I was supposed to take care of you. I promised to take care of it.

[swallows]

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

[Turning to look him in the eye.]

Blue. You did what you could, that's important to me.

[And even more importantly...]

You don't always have to take care of me. Let me take care of you too, okay?

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

Will you do it now?

[leans his head on Cori's lap]

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

You know I will.

[Even if he failed this morning with Jack. Petting Blue's hair gently.]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

Just...call me baby, and say it's okay.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

... Baby don't cry. You got to keep your head up, even when the road is hard, never give up.

[A smile? Just a little?]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

[A look up, and a small smile]

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

[Leaning over to kiss his temple.]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

[arms around Cori's neck]

Thank you for coming to find me.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

[Close to Blue, forehead to forehead. His eyeteeth can gnash his pretty gaze any moment, but Blue knows he never would.]

Thank you for sticking around to be found.

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

Can...you stay home tomorrow?

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

[Nodding against him.]

I'll stay home tomorrow, baby.

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

[crawling up into his lap]

Thanks.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

[Cradling a Blue.]

Don't worry about it.

[Another warm kiss.]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

[Kiss]

I spent two hundred years feeling like I was going to die from being alone.

I found you.

....that's enough, right?

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

That's your call, Blue.

[But his gesture of holding him tighter says "Yes."]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

...I'm scared of losing more people.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

Blue... I know you'll reach out to more people than I ever will, and you'll keep forging friendships till the day you die.

[However soon or far that is.]

This sounds like a fucking cliché, but don't be afraid to be scared. People love you, it's not going to be all your fault.
