Kora tensed only for a minute as Gerard scooped him up but as he nestled comfortably in the Raven haired angel's arms. Instantly recognising the scent he was relaxed and calm. "Thank you Lilly for being the best baby sitter ever"He grinned doing as his Grandpa had bid him. He paused softly as he considered what else he should say. His small body tensed not wanting to upset the Blond Singer again. "Caleb..Im sorry I wetted on your coat.. but I bets My grandpa could fix it then you wonts have to be sad no mores" His simple Child's Logic and the simple fact he believed Gerard could do almost about anything that and he was Keen to make everything right. " You can cant you Grandpa?" Kora asked checking quietly for the fact he was right. "I didnt get hurted but there was lots of Loud noises Grandpa. I heard Music I think C aleb might be a Helper in a band. There was a stinky man too and there was a funny noise in here but I didnt get hurted and I was a Good boy wasnt I Lilly?" He finished his report on his time in the Concert hall Not relising yet that Caleb was no simple helper but its Lead singer and possible frontman.

By instinct and the strange embedded feelings, Caleb had sneaked (oh grammar!) closer to Lilly, lingering behind her slender form like the darkest, tallest cumulonimbus to trail across the sky. He had experienced Gerard's attitude in a plethora of forms. From his finest moments, to his griping attitude and even the slimmest moments of kindness that were extended to him in the loss of his kidnapped girlfriend. Yet watching the star crouch down to sooth the child and give forced but polite apologies to even one of the party felt too unnatural (Peter Gabriel too). Caleb was being rude, however, like only his youth knew how. His head was tilted slightly, the fringe of bangs threatening to steal over his eye sight but did nothing to hide the squint in one side of his face. The tension of the eye muscles pulled on one lip, giving it a slight disgusted curl. The look was mild, Caleb had more subtle expressions of distaste then should have been allowed, many times slipping by unnoticed. The look was stuck like his thoughts which were still trying feebly to process Gerard. His concentration was broke by the mention of his own name. His mouth closed and a jaw slid to the side, bringing his expression to something smooth and alert. "That's okay." He mumbled quietly, not really wanted to Gerard to have anything to do with his coat. "Really." He added flatly and slipped a hand into his pocket. He didn't know what else Kora was going to spit out and prayed he wasn't the type of child to spin tales to get babysitters in trouble. Apparently, Caleb had had his fair share of child horror stories. "Wha-nnn." The small mutter was cut off and Caleb ducked his head, his hand coming out of his pocket to his neck. Helper? Are you kidding me?! Caleb's eyes rolled and fixed back on the child. He could accept the rest, Tyler always smelled like drugs and drunk around showtime. It was a relief he wrapped it up by directing the story to Lilly. The young man's head was spinning in circles trying to solace itself with the injustices done to him.

The centuries old vampire's eyebrows furrowed mildly, not nearly enough to recreate the scowling effect that had bounded them together in the first place at hearing his little grandson's words at how by simply stating that Gerard could fix the young singer's jacket--above all things in the world he could do--everything would be solved and peace would grow back into their lives as if none of this had ever happened. Shimmery greens gave a quick scan of the tall ensemble behind his ex-fiancee, a twitch at the corner of the upper lip signaling that despite their quiet past of helping each other in situations they'd never repeat and would solely guard 'till their grave, it didn't change their disgusted relation for each other within the reason that was standing gracefully and stunning as ever in between each cavalier. The eyes stole back toward the small kid cradled inside the strong but very slim and frail looking arms, the artist fingers giving a light sweep of the child's cheek. "I'm sure Lilly will be an even greater girlfriend and will clean her beloved's jacket like a good model of a mother." The disgusted twitch that seemed to permanently pucker in scarring effect on his lip smoothed out quite quickly, the lips pulling into a very smug smile. The smile grew even wider with the air of an impish touch when Kora had mentioned Caleb being some sort of helper for a band when in reality, he was the lead singer for said band. It all was just too much happiness to sink into. And of course, as vanity and pride would act in these feeble situations, pride would always take it's corresponding place in front of another man. The alabaster, angelic man wouldn't correct the small infant nested in his arms about how the tall star really was a lead singer for his own band like he much was. "Say bye bye to Lilly and Caleb now. The whole family has been worried about you. Even your grandma and grandpa. We don't want Morgan getting into too much trouble either, although I'm sure Lenix would cover. Brilliant gal she is." He smiled a smiled no one would ever think that existed in the devilish man's facial features: it was a tender smile, like a first time father watching his new born child sleep in his mother's arms.
The goddess at first had taken a vague note of where her adoration had taken a place to, but her eyes had followed long enough to feel the presence lingering and towering over her slender, hourglass form. Her hands stifled a common fidget of her schoolgirl outfit, her weight shifting impatiently from foot to foot as she heard her saint talk and then Gerard talk to finally pay little attention to Kora talk. The way he expressed whole-heartedly and how he tried to fix everything with just saying that his grandfather could do almost the impossible was so innocent, naive and adorable that Lilly couldn't possibly think anything less of either in just that instant. The mask dissolved as quickly as it came, hearing how the devil hybrid spoke of her as Caleb's mother servant or something of the like, bringing defiant scowls to crease her perfectly smooth and graceful expressions. It all quickly went away, too to the short-spanned woman. Something the small child had said caught her interest very quickly like a firecracker snapping into the sky. A neat sharped white clung to her lower, stained lip as her platformed foot took another fidgeting place in front of her other. "Gerard," her digits neatly outstretched as her hand reached as if hoping this invisible force would hold him for that momentary recall, "Why do noises bother Kora so much?" The question caused a curious tilt of her head, giving her that air of adorable, "innocent" schoolgirl the only way teasing vixens would. In the mean time while Gerard was stopping just in time to catch her question, the terribly beautiful woman had stolen a glance toward her sweetheart, sidestepping for her own sake, deciding if she should save the moments implore for him and advocate like a good girlfriend although a certain bitterness stung right in her gut, remembering how unintentionally rude and hurtful he was earlier. Her hand rose, her fingertips tenderly lingering with a small but cool sensational feel over his skin until her own hand encountered his, entwining their fingers together as if this would calm or sooth any distraught he had suffered for the oblivious comment of the child. "Because he's blind." Suddenly interrupted Gerard's charming voice, piercing through the formed composure, causing the beauty's head to snap up in time, her eyes widened as if feeling a sting of remorse because she had been completely oblivious to the factor as the other. "Oh..." her free hand clapped immediately to her rosy lips, aghast mildly. "I'm... sorry."
"You don't have to be sorry," the older man quickly interjected with a non-regretful tone, smiling as if the situation were only something to disregard and not a major problem. "Kora is a fit, healthy boy and his other senses are stronger, enhanced to almost supernatural." Another impossible smile crossed the rock star's lips as he protectively snuggled Kora closer into his body. "Now, I really have to go. The family is worried. Thanks again," he repeated with reluctance and great hesitation, nodding once a goodbye to Caleb as if he only knew a secret lying behind that small nod.

Kora listened to the wise words of his grandfather. Maybe Lilly could fix the coat to fix it for Caleb but wasnt it his job to fix it. He put it down to his lack of adult understanding of Adults and there ways.A soft smile crept across his ips as he felt the soft stroke of Gerards finger. He was glad to be finally going home it was then a new worry presented itself "Grandpa we cant go yet Lilly still has my clothes Mom will be mad if we dont bring them back cause they were my new ones " He complained knowing he couldnt leave without them. They where his and surely his mother would get upset if he left without them. The idea of Morgan getting into trouble didnt phase the young boy at all knowing hed take all the blame of his adventure leaving none for the teenagers shoulders. He was listening to the conversation between Lilly and his grandpa tensing a little when she asked the question about his phobia of loud Noises. Although he was only five he hated peoples sympathies as soon as the find out hes blind so its with relief and admiration he smiles when he hears Gerard explain he needs no sympathies and he goets to have a close cuddle with his grandfather.Now hes ready to go home and chirps up his farewells to his babysitters with a smile on his face "Goodbye Caleb Goodbye Lilly Grandpa says are we going home now to see my momma" He informed the couple hapily almost read to go home figuring Gerard could stop anyone there being mad at him there.

It was hard for the taller, younger and clearly more niave man to digest everything the other male was saying. He hadn't learned to judge all the little movments of his face in accordance to his words but he knew enough to decide he didn't like that his girlfriend had just been verbally warped into a slave momma. Modle of a mother was a term that drove a spike between, "you're not quite there" and "you are one". The resounding tone of the hammer and nail sounded like marriage to Caleb and in all, the tangent of his mind was like a sour residue, the sort of memory dislike embedded in your every fiber and resurrected in a cringe the way that the phrase, "nails on chalkboard" is. He had the urge to let his glittering prize know he thought nothing of the sort of her but somethin in the strangely tensed atmosphere kept him close but nearly uncomforting. The conversations annoyed him enough that the blue eyes squinted down in flash of potiency to mirror his mothers sharp countenance but in an instant, it was gone. In turn, he observed the adoring behavior Gerard conjured up to speak of his family with, it reminded him of someone but in itself was distracting enough that he disregarded all other thought and settled in for Gerard's leave. He expected a flippant reply to Lilly's question and an insistance upon exiting but the response that came caused his lips to part. "Oh" it was a silent escape but his facial expression was enough to cover it. The sort of "oh crap" look like when you crack a retard joke to someone who's sibling is one. His hand snaked through his hair during the brief exchange. It explained everything and nothing to him but Gerard's ease in stifiling the situation made it last all the numbingly longer in his mind. His only respone was a quick blink when Gerard nodded and a mumbled, unsure goodbye to Kora's chipper tone. "Ein moment." The lightly scowling star scuffled in two quick steps to Kora's nearly dry clothes and in an easy big handed grasp, pulled them together and turned them over to Gerard. "Here. I guess they're... slightly decent?"
[oh how I suck]

With some kind of bitter hesitation, the raven haired man stopped himself from turning around once again to exit the momentary hell-hole he had walked himself into. To his relief, the young and much taller rock star had helped his misdemeanor by grabbing the handful of yet damp clothes, which he managed to multitask in his left hand while keeping Kora safely in his right. "Thanks." Were the flat tones left by his frosty lips, his eyes lingering momentarily as if just for a millisecond, regretting not saying something sort of nice. The green orbs strayed away, his head taking a dip before swerving in his own interval, nodding just a quick goodbye to whomever cared for it. "Maybe we'll encounter your father on the way, sweetie." Gerard had said as if dreading the encounter from every directional situation. With a simple glide across the tiles, Gerard was out of the bathroom easily.
Swallowing a gust of wind, the stunning woman's figure kept a stifled stance on her position, reassembling something like a mannequin with a school girl outfit. If it weren't for the shift of her eyes towards her adoration, the situation might have been fatal. She knew, by the expression her boyfriend had taken, that he'd be somewhat melancholy for a while. Lilly hadn't had the faintest idea of Caleb not liking children, but it was something--beyond other things--that she would discover along their loving path. Gerard had left an unwanted lump inside her throat as well. The child they had tried to take care of had been blind. How could that of slipped her?! It was something that left an open, seeping wound inside her mind. But then again, didn't every kid scream and cry by hearing alien sounds that disgruntled anyone's ears? A porcelain arm crawled alongside her immobile one, smoothing down the distraught goosebumps of her internal, emotional tantrum. It gave her the time to pay attention back to her saint, but faintly and farther than really paying attention. "Caleb?" Her silver bell voice called but more soothingly, tuning towards the lullaby but nervous tones she reserved. The sound was barely audible, and flashbacks began to flood her vision, knowing she'd avoid any more turmoil and tension in the air if she had simply left him alone. Unplugging the blow dryer from its receptacle, coiling it back over the hard plastic before tucking it in her arm along with all the other useless clothes that were tailored for usage.

Kora was only partly relived to be leaving finally.He guessed his Mother was Mad,Safi too most likely guessing by the tones of his Grandfather's voice, even his father was upset by his adventures.Did it mean Gerard was Mad at him to he wasnt sure yet but he'd take any punishment delt to him as long as they didnt shout at him. "Where is My Daddy Grandpa?" He asked rather timidly pressing himself closer to Gerard seeking protection from him just in case his daddy was Mad at him. " You wont let them shout at me will you? I bet they are really really mad cause I gots an adventure without them?" He asked looking to Gerard to at least protect him from the probability of Loud yelling knowing that upset him, so did the fact his family being cross at him but that at least he felt he deserved after leaving the Garden. He wondered exactly how much trouble he was in but he didnt dare ask not yet anyway.

The star kept quiet in his spot until Gerard left, his eyes long since fixed on the middle of the door frame in an idle stare. They flickered once with recognition as Gerard's form passed their spot, queuing him that he was now left alone in the desolate bathroom with Lilly. The tall form gave a half whirl, taking in the scarred and dirty walls. An ominous token of his fortunes tonight. Before the whirl was over, the force had lifted his hands up and he completed the motion by collapsing them on his head. Calloused fingers laced together and a casual slump took the posture of his arms. "Yes, dear?" The star's tone was quiet, which meant a few things. The previous situation eliminated the possibility he was feeling cute with her and a placid expression crossed illness of the list leaving the only possibility to be a case of fatigue. It was hard to understand some of the things that passed between himself and Lilly, especially around Gerard. The man had become as puzzling to him as his mother. He clearly owned secret lives that Caleb would have to suffer through glimpses of whether or not he wanted to. It seemed fate would always roll their pathes into each other. The cruel twist complicated things between himself and his lover. He wasn't fooled into believing a majority of it was not his fault. He was young and had no calloused walls to fall back on, no past experiences to keep a naive heart from devastation and his only alternative was to panic. A tiring panic displayed in a form of near agitation.
(i don't really know what I said, filler really)
