Alex leant against the wall of the dungeons alone. It was night and cool down there, especially against his hot skin. He was waiting for Gary. They had agreed to meet down there, for what reason Alex was unsure. But all he knew was that the full moon was close and his wolf-ish tendencies were starting to come through. He sighed and slid down the wall the cold brick almost warming to him. In some ways he was glad he was different. He was glad he could be a new person. Free to do whatever he liked. No boundaries. In his heart he knew bigger things would come along and split everything in two. But for now he was happy, happy to be here with Gary and his friends. It was perfect.

Gary ran down the stairs, enjoying the freedom of not having to pretend to walk slowly infront of the students, seeing as most of them were in bed. He smiled when he saw Alex, then frowned as the expression on his face. "Something wrong?" he asked, as a greeting, sitting down next to his extremely hot boyfriend - in all senses of the word. He tilted his head to the side, much like a confused puppy.

Alex smiled and rested his head on his boyfriend leg, his hand slowly slipping down the boys leg to his flies. "No, nothing. Just waiting for you," he said placing a kiss on the boys cheek. "I heard Faith is pregnant," he said off handedly still smiling. He was only saying it to make light conversation, but in all honesty he didn't care for children. He bit his lip, his heart thumping in his chest. "I've missed you," he said changing the subject completely and kissing Gary square on his lips.

Gary raised his eyebrows, "Pregnant? How did that happen? All vampires are sterile..." He frowned but then got distracted by Alex's next sentence and then his lips. His eyes closed and he leant forward, deepening the kiss. If he really concentrated, he could still taste the chocolatey-ness of Alex. The thought made him smile and he pulled back slightly, "I've missed you too," he said, quietly.

Alex smiled and wrapped his arms around Gary, "It's nice to see you smiling again," he said quietly. Closing his eyes, he leant against Gary, breathing deeply. It had been a while since the argument that they had spent any time together. It was a lovely feeling. He sighed happily, just glad that they were able to spend some time together. "I've put on weight," Alex said, just as quietly, although he was very pleased with himself. But the only reason he had was comfort eating and not going anywhere. Plus the fact he was terrified that transforming into a werewolf was going to rip him apart.

Gary chuckled and pulled Alex onto his lap. "Really? That's great! It's probably more healthy for you to put on some weight now..." he said,trailing off at the end of the sentence. He sighed slightly then shook himself. He wouldn't think about that tonight. He ad been an a**hole recently and it was time to make it up to Alex. He smiled and placed his hand on Alex's cheek, running his thumb back and forth on the smooth skin.

Alex smiled and placed his hand on top of Gary's. "Yeah, I suppose it is." he said, not really following the conversation. He looked at Gray, deep into his eyes and placed a gentle kiss on the boys neck. "I love you," he whispered placing his free palm on the boys chest. Feeling the cold of his skin against his own boiling skin.

Gary smiled and looked back into Alex's eyes, "I love you too. I'm so sorry about before.. I'll never stop loving you, no matter what." He leant forward and kissed his lips softly. The warmth radiating off of Alex's body was intense but it was somehow comforting. The smell would just have to be something he got used to. After all, he knew that he didn't smell so good to Alex either.

Alex closed his eyes and kissed Gary back, just loving the feel between them, "I forgive you," he smiled pulling away from Gary slightly, turning he straddles Gary's lap and ran his hand gently up the boys body. It was a while before the full moon, but still, certain things about it were trying to push through, like the fact he was getting very...ahem...energetic. Poking Gary in the ribs he bit his lip, blushing slightly.

Gary smiled and rested his forehead against Alex's, closing his eyes. He chuckled and sat up, grabbing Alex's wrist as he poked him. "Now, now, Cub, no poking," he said, chuckling. He mirrored Alex's hand, running his own hand under Alex's shirt.

Alex shivered at the touch, but kept himself composed, well..."Cub? Cub?! I'm not a baby, I'm a man," he laughed, sliding off Gary's lap and onto the floor. Pulling Gary on top of him he smiled at the boy and pressed his lips to his cold neck, "Well...sort of," he blushed smiling up at Gary.

Gary smirked, "A man? Really? We'll have to see about that..." He smirked and propped himself up on his elbows. He let out a low moan at the kiss and tilted his head to the side to give Alex better access. "I love you," he murmured again, almost as if he was trying to reassure Alex of that fact. He had been so mean, and even if Alex had forgiven him, he had forgiven himself.

Alex blushed and kissed lower and lower, undoing Gary's buttons as he went, "I love you too," he whispered finally pulling the soft material from the boys shoulders. Smiling he returned to the boys neck, nipping the skin lightly, leaving marks to show anyone that Gary belonged to him. Slowly he ran his hands up the boys chest, feeling every mark, everything. "You're beautiful," he murmured against Gary's skin.

Gary moaned again at the touches, a smile plastered to his face. He ran his hands down Alex's chest, popping open the buttons of his shirt as he went. He trailled his fingers over the bite mark on Alex's shoulder, then began to kiss all over the scar.

Alex smiled and traced his hands to the boys trousers undoing them quickly and slipping his hand into his boxers. He closed his eyes and arched his back to Gary's kisses, they felt so good, like he hadn't felt them for years. He smiled and tilted his head to give Gary more room.

Gary moaned and pressed his body against Alex's, still laying kisses all over his shoulders, neck and chest. They hadn't done this sort of thing for a long time and he really had missed it. The more time he spent with Alex, the more he regretted ever getting mad at the boy. It wasn't his fault that he had been in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Alex bit his lip and slid his hand back out of Gary boxers, "P-please, I need more," he begged, pulling Gary up and kissing him hungrily on the lips. He had missed this, even if it was in a cold damp dungeon he knew that neither of them could feel it. he reached down and slipped off the boys trousers and underwear. "I need you," he whispered

Gary moaned at his words, "Anything for you," he breathed, kissing Alex's neck. He ran his hands down Alex's thighs, pulling his legs apart. A smile spread over his face, "God how i've missed this," he said, kissing him once more before changing his position...

Time Lapse

Alex lay panting on the dungeon floor, Gary laying still on top of him. "I love you," he breathed running a hand through the boys hair. It had felt amazing, to be back with Gary, to be able to hold him close. "I will always love you," he smiled placing a kiss on the boys forehead and sitting up on his elbows.

Gary smiled and rolled off of him, smiling, "And i will always love you." He caught ahold of Alex's hand and entwined their fingers, smiling at the contact. It felt good - right - to be back together. He remembered Edward's words from the Spring Ball 'He is still Alex' and smiled. Yes, he definitely was still Alex. His Alex.
