Looking Mirror/ Ignorance Isn't Bliss, Christmas Special- Two-shot

[Teesie]

Arish was slowly dragging a towel against his pale body, quickly washing away the soap that rested there. He and Erin both had a party to go to. It was one that the twins were throwing, Isaan and Ruune. Jackal B. was excited to go, but the half angel just wanted to sit down, watch television and relax. Due to his lover wanting to go, the dark haired male had given up and decided to just go with the demonic being.

 

After stepping out of the shower, the ex hunter wiped the water from his body and sighed slightly. Walking from the bathroom he raised a brow at his lover. "What are you doing?" Coal eyes staring to Erin.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

The brunette, who was taking advantage of his moment alone to wrap a present he bought for his lover a few days ago, jumped, and hid the small, colorfully wrapped box behind his back. The half-demon blushed slightly, looking up at his lover with a nervous smile. Truthfully, Erin was unsure if the other would even like this part of his Christmas present, so he was really scared about giving it to him. It was a really kind of corny gift, but the conman could think of no other idea that wasn't sexual...and he was all ready going to do that for a part two of the gift, so, yeah.

 

"Hey love, just wrapping some things up," Jackal B. said, ignoring his unintentional pun, averting his green eyes from the other. Christmases and Birthdays were going to be hell! He had no problem lying to other people, but Arish was different.

[Teesie]

The half angel only gave a small nod before padding to the dresser. The older man wanted to find warm enough clothing to go out into the weather. Since it had snowed, it was a mighty cold day, cold and wet. Some aspects that the angelic male knew his love did not enjoy. Maybe it was karma bitching back to the smaller man because the other was basically forcing the ex hunter to go to the Christmas party.

 

"I see, well could you hurry up. The party will be beginning in less than an hour. If we are going I'd rather not be late. Many cars will take up the driveway and we'll have to step through snow just to get there." Arish explained casually as he stare to Jackal B.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Erin shuttered, snow...his worst enemy. Luckily, the conman had gotten in the shower first, but was the reason why they were running a little late. The warm water was just felt to good to get out of right away. He was lucky, yet again, for the thick sweater Abel had bought him last year still fit. It was really warm, even though it looked a little dorky with all the little snowmen on it. The conman slipped the present back into it's hiding place, and smiled at his lover. "Yeah, let's get moving, love. Stop being a slowpoke~," He teased with an impish grin. He pressed a short kiss to the other's lips, and headed to the front door. Oh, did Jackal B. ever mention that he was always one more for being naughty rather than nice.

[Teesie]

Arish frowned slightly before giving a small frown. What the hell did his love mean by....'Slowpoke~' was the brunette saying that there was no way he could poke faster? The half angel sneered. He could defiantly do anything his mind set him to do. It was all just a mind game, right? If he had to prove it, then the demonic being would get a candy cane before everyone handed out candy at the party.

 

Arish sighed as he trailed after his boyfriend. Why was having to go to the twin's party so important. The dark haired man still disliked Isaan. If the white haired brother was the one to cook the cookies the two had promised, or if he even helped cook them, there was no way that Arish would eat it. The man was a Realm Official and the half angel didn't trust him one bit. No way.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Erin raised an eyebrow at the other and chuckled. Arish could be so sensitive sometimes, really. Grabbing his boyfriend's hand he dragged the other out to the car, and climbed into the passengers seat. The brunette smirked, he loved pushing the other's buttons, though sometimes it resulted in a sore ass for the conman. It was totally worth it.

 

Once the other had taken his place at the drivers seat Erin grinned slyly and said, "Don't be like that, love~. If you're good at the party maybe I'll give ya one of your gifts early.". The half-demon winked at the other then buckled up, smirk still in place. Jackal B. knew he might regret his teasing later tonight, but he was having way to much fun to stop now.

[Teesie]

Arish chose to ignore his love, but it didn't stop him from registering what the other had said. Isaan and Ruune lived like three miles away, which wasn't bad at all. The two of them would be there in no time. The half angel was ready to get there. It's not like the older male was anticipating to start the party, but more of an eagerness for the party to end.

 

"Well, we're here." Arish announced as he stopped the car. It seemed as if only two people got here before them, due to the other cars parked by the sidewalk.

 

Opening the door to his vehicle, the taller man slide out before slamming the door close. Glancing to the brunette he watched as his love stepped from the car and began to pad to the door. Sighing the dark haired male trailed behind him, this was something that the angel wished didn't take long.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Jackal B. walked up to the door and knocked on it, grinning at Ruu when he answered it. He swept the younger into a hug, which shocked the smaller for a second, and laughed out, "Merry Christmas, midget!". The fallen laughed slightly and hugged the older male back.

 

"Nice to see you too, B.," The silver haired boy said softly when he was put down. He then looked over at Arish and smiled, "Merry Christmas, Mister Arish, glad to you could make it." Ruu lead the pair inside and into the sitting room, which was brightly decorated with red and green decorations and a table was set up with different types of food, though it seemed like Ruu was trying to hide the plate of cookies when he was setting up. Kay was leaning back on the couch near by, drinking eggnog with Angelo, who looked emotionless next to the woman's energetic and expressive gestures as she recounted a story of sorts. Damon, a full demon, had his arm draped over the emotionless half-fallen's shoulder as he laughed at the woman's tale. Mary was talking to Abel, probably about the implications of medical tactics in combat...or something boring like that. Ruu went to go sit by his twin on the couch opposite of the one where the others resided. The conman went to go sit by Kay, curious of what the hell was so funny.

 

"Hey! Welcome to the party! It may not be much now but once the others get here this will get rwarin'," Kay grinned as the two entered. "Hey, Angel boy," She said gesturing for Arish to come over, "Wanna hear a funny story about your boyfriend~."

 

The green eyed man's eyes widened slightly, and he shrunk down in his seat a little. He hoped she wasn't going to tell him about his...um...escapades from before he and Arish found each other again.

[Teesie]

The half angel only nodded at the woman's offer. Coal eyes glancing to his lover, the ex hunter wondered what could be so humiliating that his boyfriend was basically hiding himself from the public eye. Even though it may be his lover's past life, the dark haired male knew be would be upset if it revolved around a certain topic. Although he knew that no one would openly talk about a friend's sex life, right?

 

The older male stared solely to Kay. The funny thing was, was Arish didn't even like the woman. Not one bit, but he was willing to see what she would say about his lover. It was something that he knew he would never hear from Jackal B. so that was why it attracted the dark haired man so much. This was possible the only reason the half angel was listening.

 

"Can you hurry this up. I'm trying to leave this party as soon as I can and I don't think talking would make me any less anxious. Actually it would make me more eager to leave." The older said lowly as he rolled his dark colored orbs.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

"Aw~ That would be rude to Ruu though," The woman laughed, "Anyways, there was this one time at the bar about a year or two back. Me and Jackal B. were there for a drink, and since it was his 21st birthday he decided it was now appropriate to get extremely drunk. Have you ever seen him drunk? I mean drunk when he's not in a bad mood, he can get a little touchy feely with people, ya know," The woman began, and Erin shrunk down in the seat more and hoped to what ever deity might be out there that it was not the story he was thinking of. He did lots of shit that day...it could be anything. At least she wasn't recalling the time he grabbed Ruu's ass, he was sure that he was dead meat if Isaan ever heard that story.

 

"So yeah, that day there was some shit going on and some Realm Officials were comin' by and question people at the bar. Now, one thing you need to know is that when this one is drunk off his birdy ass he has no fucking shame-"

 

"Oh God...not this fucking story...," The younger whined, hiding his now beat red face in his hands. It was the fucking story!

 

"Oh shush, and let me finish," The slightly tipsy woman ordered with a Cheshire cat grin, God, she loved embarrassing the shit out of people, "So there was this young Angel guy, around 25 or 27, askin' questions, and when he came to us he barely got two words out before B. smacked his ass and call him sexy. The look on the guys face was priceless! He practically ran out of the bar! I never seen a fucking Realm Offical get so flustered over anything before. The best part was when the guy left Jackal B. turned to me and said, 'I regret nothin.'" Kay ended with a laugh, and laughed even harder when she saw the half-demon's red face, and him glaring at her with sharp green eyes.

 

"Oh suck it up B., at least I did tell him about the time you grabbed-" Erin clamped a hand over Kay's mouth.

 

"We all swore never to speak of that day!" The man hissed out. Across the room Ruu blushed slightly, knowing exactly what she was talking about. It was in everyone's best interest that, that story never leaved the three of them.

[Teesie]

The dark haired man looked to the smaller male who had his hand now clamped over the woman's mouth preventing her from saying any more words. If Arish said that he was completely fine it would be a fucking lie. He wasn't exactly irate, but a little jealous. At least it wasn't as worst as he thought it would be, due to how the story started.

 

"Well, that was a story I could have went without knowing. No one sees me talking about how many people I've ever fucked before Erin and I got back together. I can tell about the many women and men I had screaming my name." The half angel was lying, but it would actually satisfy him if he was to get a reaction out if his lover. Not that he was trying to make the other pissed, but at least a little jealous.

 

Coal eyes glancing across the room the ex Elite Hunter could tell that Ruune was wearing a relieved face. Maybe the next story that Kay was about to spill had something to do with the fallen. Well, that would make plenty of sense why the group was to never to talk about it.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

"But there was no sex involved in that story, only ass grabbin'," Kay said, finally getting the other's hand off of her mouth. She was about to say something else, but Angelo got her attention back to him by asking a question. Erin sent the man a thankful look, to which he gave a barely noticeable nod too.

 

At Arish words the conman frowned, a little jealousy showing in his green eyes. He bit his lip, and shifted a bit in his seat, looking away from his boyfriend. The idea of Arish ever being with anyone else made him a combination of angry, sad, and madly jealous. The conman wished his still had his hat, because that helped hide when he was getting a little too emotional. Arish loved, he reminded himself, so all those other people ment nothing. And the same went for all those one night stands the half-demon had had over the years, they were just fucks to releave his demonic sex drive. Yet he couldn't help but feel a bit insecure.

 

So, to satisfy the possessive instincts welling up inside him, the brunette moved from sitting on the couch to sitting on his dark haired boyfriend's lap. Actions speak louder than words, as they always say.

[Teesie]

Arish smirked slightly to himself, he could let the brunette see or maybe Erin would know that it was all a trick. Wrapping his arms around the waist of the smaller male, the half angel kissed Jackal B. on the neck before looking away from him. Isaan was staring at him with a weird look in his eyes and Ruune was just slightly blushing. The stories was over with, so what could possible be wrong with the other?

 

Due to his lover not letting him eat, the dark haired male was hungry and the foods that the twins prepared was looking mighty scrumptious. Holding his lover closer he whispered softly in the demonic being's ear.

 

"I'm hungry. We should eat babe~"

[Guest cheshireArtist]

The half-demon let out a barely noticeable whimper when the other pressed his lips against Jackal B.'s tan neck, and fidgeted slightly on his boyfriend's lap. He didn't notice the twins giving them a slightly odd look since he had other things on his mind.

 

Erin looked up at Arish's words and nodded, he was pretty hungry too. He, somewhat reluctantly, got up from the ex hunter's lap, and walked up to the buffet table. He grabbed a paper plate and started stacking it with a small amount of food. The brunette was hungry, but not extremely so. Then he noticed the cookies, half hidden behind another dish. They looked a little burnt so maybe that was why Ruu hid them. Kid's really OCD in the kitchen sometimes. He picked up one of the smaller cookies and took a bite, "Damn...these are salty," He muttered, frowning. Meanwhile Ruu's face was bright red and hid his face in Isaan's shoulder.

[Teesie]

Arish heard his lover and frowned slightly. Was that the reason that the twins decided to hide them behind the other dishes? Standing, the dark haired man walked to the table and also picked up a cookie. Taking a small bite, the half demon frowned before reluctantly swallowing it.*

 

"Dammit Ruu, what the hell did you put in those?" All the while at the question the older twin chuckled a little while he pushed Ruune's face from his shoulder. The other was beet red and Arish wanted to *know exactly why.

 

"Ruu, what the hell did you put in these? Did you accidentally spill salt into the batter or something?" The ex hunter threw the rest of the cookie into the garbage that rested beside the table.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Ruu looked at the two wide eyed before getting up and practically dashing out of the room. The slam of a door was heard, and Erin assumed he went to his bedroom. The brunette shruged and tossed the rest of his cookie in the trash. Ruu could always be a little over emotional.

 

The conman eyed the eggnog, it was the alcoholic kind, since most of them were legal adults. He kind of said he wouldn't drink to Arish, and he had been really good about it for the last couple of months. Maybe his boyfriend wouldn't mind if he took only one glass, it was only one after all, and what could Arish do about it anyways. The half-demon was an adult and could do what he wanted. Plus, it was fucking Christmas, it should be okay for him to have a little fun, right? Making his decision the cat-eyed man took a glass, and took a small sip. Just one couldn't hurt.

[Teesie]

Arish watched as the smaller twin bolted from the room. A chuckled reigned through the room as Isaan gave in to his laughter. The dark haired male raised an eyebrow. He knew that the two was hiding something, but there was no use trying to figure it out if the two didn't want to share. The half angel just hoped it wasn't bad.

 

Now glancing to his lover Arish Lefunt pursed his lips at his lover. It seemed that he couldn't hold out from the alcohol anymore. Well, *it was a special occasion so the demonic being could at least gave in every once in a while. Shrugging, he pulled up a glass and set it beside Jackal B.

 

"I want some as well, thank you."

[Guest cheshireArtist]

The smaller grinned as he pored the eggnog into both their glasses, and gave Arish a kiss on the cheek. He haven't had a bit of alcohol in forever! Erin grabbed his plat of food and sat back down on the couch. The conman ate some of his food, and took a gulp of eggnog. He hoped his habit of drinking any drink a bit fast wouldn't backfire on him here. He was pretty sure he could at least hold his alcohol well enough not to get tipsy from one glass...though it was a pretty big glass.

 

The couch dipped next to him and he looked up at the Freelancers second in command, Morgan. Looks like he just arrived along with a few others. "Hey, how ya doin'?" The brunette asked.

 

"Good, and you, short stuff?" The older man asked, sipping on his own drink.

 

"Hey~," Jackal B. whined, pouting a little, "I'm not that fuckin' short!"

[Teesie]

The dark haired male smiled as he walked over to sit onto the couch that Isaan was resting at. He just hoped the other wouldn't try to talk to him, though judging on both their personalities, there was no way a conversation could be initiated. The two was too stubborn. One could even make a bet to who could be the most stubborn at some point.

 

The half angel began to eat the food that the two twins had prepared for the party. It was pretty good to be honest and the ex hunter wouldn't mind by having another serving. Glancing over to the Realm Official, Arish studied the male. Isaan seemed so low rated, he was just as evil as they came. The dark haired man wouldn't be surprised if poison was mixed into the food.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Ruu came back into the room, a little less red in the face. He blinked in confusion at Arish willingly sitting next to his twin but shrugged it off. The silver haired boy just walked over and took a seat on Isaan's lap instead of taking up more room on the couch. His brother was more comfortable anyways, and warmer.

 

Erin frowned at his boyfriend sitting next to the older twin. He still felt a little insecure from earlier, so that definitely did not help. He took another large sip of his eggnog and turned his attention back to his conversation with Morgan. Soon the conman was almost done with his drink, surprisingly, and was starting to feel the effects. Mind slightly fuzzy from the alcohol, Jackal B. decided that if Arish was aiming to make him jealous tonight then two can play at that game.

 

"Hey~, you're looking sexy tonight, Morgan," The man complimented. What he said was true, Morgan was a rather good looking half-demon, but was straight as a bored...but Arish didn't know that.

 

Morgan rolled his eyes, used to the other hitting on him when he was getting drunk. But it hadn't happened since the younger started dating that ex-hunter. Wait, was Jackal B. using him to make the other jealous? Wow...just wow. He just shrugged off most of the other's shameless flirting, and sighed. It wasn't his fault if the cat-eyed man got in trouble with Arish.

[Teesie]

The dark haired male looks over to the smaller male at hearing his voice. What he saw pissed him the fuck off. Jackal B. had found it appropriate to flirt with someone else other than him. It wasn't in the least funny and the half angel did not appreciate the situation one bit.

 

Frowning slightly the older male stood from the couch, in which he was resting on, and trailed to his lover. Grabbing the other boy by the arm, the angelic male snatched Erin away from the half demon male and glared to him. Arish was royally pissed, he would make the demon apologize.

 

Pulling Erin along with him, the older man was soon in a bathroom. "You think what you doing is cute don't you? Well it's not. I'll have you apologize right now. Pull your pants down...now!"

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Erin was a little shocked when he was pulled from his seat by his half-angel boyfriend, the aim of his plan was to make him jealous, not make him mad. Morgan on the other hand wasn't shocked, and just shook his head slightly. What ever the ex-hunter had in store for the younger man Morgan didn't want to find out.

 

In retrospect what Erin did was a very stupid idea, but he blamed the alcohol for that one. It totally wasn't his fault, so why should he apologize. Arish started it with the fucking comment after Kay's story. When told to pulled down his pant the demonic man retorted with, "No, you started it." The slightly tipsy green eyed man glared back at his coal eyed lover, not budging. He may be on bottom but Arish wasn't the boss of him! He was his own man, he could flirt with who ever he wanted to. It wasn't even as if he enjoyed flirting with Morgan...it was actually pretty awkward since the man didn't flirt back or respond to his advances.

 

Jackal B. was quite stubborn, so anyone who knew him knew that when he thought that something he did was justified it took a bit to convince him otherwise.

[Teesie]

Arish only stated to his boyfriend, his expression blank. There was no amusement written anywhere on his face, because it was all overtook by anger in a matter of seconds. It was true that his boyfriend was quite stubborn but the half angel didn't give a damn. The other would do as he say, and it would happen right now. The last thing Arish wanted to do was make it seem as if he was trying to rule Erin, but he will show the other that he was not allowed to flirt with anyone else but him.

 

Spinning the other around, the ex Elite Hunter took a hold of the smaller's pants and quickly pulled them down. There was no way that he would have Jackal B. think of this as a fucking game.

 

"This is not a fucking game Erin White. I am not playing to see who could make the other more jealous. It's true that I may have wanted you to be jealous, but that's because I was after the story Kay told. It was all untrue. Actually o had no time for sex after we broke up." Pulling his hand back and slapping it against the younger's ass cheek. The dark haired man didn't want to hear a word from Erin.

 

"Since you act like a kid, I'll treat you as one." Continuing to strike the other against the ass.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

The brunette was caught by surprise when he spun around and his pants pulled down, and even his boxers too. He let out an indignant squeak when his ass was smacked and his cat-like eyes widened at the other's words. So he was trying to make him jealous before, that fact kind of made his demon half happy that the half-demon was the only one his lover had ever had sex with. But with the situation happening right now Erin was focusing on other things than that...like getting away from Arish's assaulting hand. It wasn't like the other hand him bent over his knee or anything since they where both still standing, he could, theoretically, get away.

 

The half demon made a quick move to get away from the other before the angelic man could land another hit to Erin's ass. He was nearly at the door, he was not going to do this, it was too humiliating.

[Teesie]

The half angel quickly grabbed onto the smaller male and pulled him back to him. The older male knew that without having the other bent over, the demonic being would try and escape. Grabbing a hold of the smaller's frame he gently pushed the other over the sink.

 

"Did you just try to escape? Well, I will strike you much harder." The half angel announced as he began to swap the petit male's ass with his open palm. He would make the other pay for everything that he tried doing tonight.

 

"I want you to tell me your sorry. Tell me you apologize."
