"Can't I?" Matrix challenges. He really had no idea what he was getting himself into but he really wanted to know what this was all about now.
Hunter and Prey (One on One) (Closed)

Corbin turned to look at Matrix now. “You can’t,” he said, though he wasn’t really sure. Matrix seemed to be able to sense his pain when they touched, but could he really sense emotions too?
Matrix smirks, his eerily glowing eyes narrowing, "Maybe I can maybe I can't." Come on just spill.

Corbin shook his head a bit. He stood up, finishing off the last of his coffee. He limped over to the sink to go put the mug into the dishwasher.
"Look. Just tell me and get it over with." Matrix snaps. He was starting to loose his composure. Everyone kept saying 'Curiosity killed the cat.'
pets
“No, Matrix. I’m serious,” Corbin said sternly. He bent over after opening the dish washer, one hand against the counter to steady himself as he put the mug inside.
Matrix gets up and limps to the other side of the dishwasher. He leans his hip on the counter and crosses his arms, "I wont let it go. So might as well."
pets
“No, and you will,” Corbin responded. He closed the dishwasher and straightened, starting the cycle. “Go finish your coffee,” he told Matrix as he began to limp towards the hallway.
(facepalm So close. So when would be a good time for them to 'confess?')
Matrix glares at Corbin's back but doesn't move. He moves over to face the cabinets and sink. He was still leaning on the counter.
pets
(I feel like if Matrix still continued to bother him just a bit more, he’d snap and kiss him or something)
Corbin limped down the hall and into his room. He shut the door so he could get changed out of the clothes that he worn.
(Squeal OK!)
Matrix purses his lips then a light bulb seemed to go off in his head, "Hey Orion! Come here bud!" He pats his legs for the dog while pulling out the pen and messed up pentagram paper from his pocket.
pets
Orion’s ears perked up and he looked over at Matrix from where he was laying. The dog hopped up and padded over to Matrix, sitting in front of him with his tail thumping on the ground. Corbin pulled his shorts down and off before slipping on a tshirt and a pair of jeans.
Matrix scribbles down something on the back of the paper and crouches down, with many curses, and sticks it in Orion's mouth. (The note said Tell meh!) I dont know if you understand but take it to Corbin ok?" He knew he was probably making no sense to the dog. He low key wished he had Furfur's ability to control animals but shrugged it off.
pets
Orion held it in his mouth, tilting his head a bit. He at least understood Corbin’s name and perked up, looking over in the direction of his bedroom. He looked back at Matrix before standing and running off with it. Corbin heard a pawing at his door and opened it, seeing Orion with something in his mouth. He took the now slobbery piece of paper from the dog and glanced at the writing. He threw the paper away with a huff before walking back into the kitchen. “This has got to stop.”
Matrix's ears flick up at the footsteps. He jumps up and backs away slightly at the sound, "Ah shit."
pets
“Matrix, quit,” Corbin snapped when he got into the kitchen. “You’re acting so childish right now. Just drop it.”
Matrix forced a scared chuckle, "Heheh. Then tell me." Shit that just singed my death certificate. He imagined going back down to the underworld now and his siblings laughing at him for finally being killed. He had been up in the mid-realm since WW2.

Corbin glared heavily at Matrix. “You are so fucking annoying,” he growled. His fists had clenched, and he felt the urge to strike Matrix. But instead, he grabbed onto Matrix and pulled him closer, suddenly pressing their lips together. He did so for a very short moment before breaking away, still glaring. “There’s your answer, bastard,” he snapped, stepping away.
Matrix stares for a moment. His knees go out on him and he had to clutch onto the counter top to stay standing. He mouthed a few things but nothing came out of his mouth. His eyes where large
pets
Corbin walked into the living room without another word. He rested down on the couch, Orion hopping up onto it and resting with his head against his leg. He felt so fucking stupid. He should have just told Matrix to fuck off and thrown his feelings away.
Matrix slides down to the ground despite of himself. He touched his lips then looked over at Corbin in the living room. He jerks his head back and stares at the floor
pets
Corbin tilted his head back against the couch. He reached for the remote after a moment of silence. He didn’t want to think about what happened anymore.
Matrix stood up, leaning on everything and stumbles out to the living room. With out a word he sits down on the ground, his back leaning on the sofa. He didnt even curse when his leg twinged or his shoulder throbbed.
pets
Corbin glanced down and looked over at Matrix. He ran a hand through his hair before he quickly glanced away. His knee bounced a bit, feeling tense.
Matrix didnt notice. He was too stuck in the moment. He then clears his throat, "Why-?" He chokes slightly, "WHy me?"
pets
Corbin glanced down at Matrix. “Don’t know,” he responded in a level tone. It was true, too. He had no idea why he was feeling these things about the demon.
"What." Matrix catches himself and quickly shut his mouth. He curls his knees to his chin.
pets
“What?” Corbin asked. He arched a brow, looking back at the TV before glancing back down at Matrix again.
Matrix looks up to meet his eyes, "I dunno. I feel strange." He clutches his chest
pets
“What do you mean by strange?” Corbin asked. Now he seemed more confused than anything.
