“ there's nothing left to say now.”

Corbin sighed softly and shook his head a bit. "Just try and keep your clothes on, will you? Didn't even have any warning or anything."

" okay okay, Ill warn you next time. " He said and snuggled back up to Corbin

Corbin rested his head on Cyrus' shoulder, yawning and folding his wings.

" we should get ready to go"

"I'm ready to go whenever." Corbin shrugged.

" do you want me to fly you?"

"Yeah, sure… if you don't mind, anyway.."

" i dont mind love," he said softly

"Alright, we should probably get going, then." Corbin sighed and got to his feet.

cyrus nodded and picked corbin up, walking out the house and taking corbin to work

Corbin went into the shop and clocked in when they arrived, going to sit behind the counter.

cyrus wandered around for a bit

Eventually, while Cyrus was wandering, a small group of men came into the shop. They spotted Corbin at the desk and came up to it, blocking him in and starting to talk to him. He looked uncomfortable, looking around for Cyrus when they started touching his face and neck.

cyrus walked up behind one of them " excuse me, im trying to get back to my crow. " it was clear he was a soldier. his blue wins were unmistakable,but the cold glare on his face resembled his fathers.

When Cyrus came up, the guys glanced between themselves and then reluctantly stepped back to clear a path for him. Corbin sighed softly in relief and got to his feet so he could be closer to Cyrus.

cyrus wrapped his wings around corbin and glared protectively. " i suggest the ethical isle, you might learn something."

The guys looked between themselves again and scoffed, pausing before they turned to leave. They were muttering amongst themselves, things like 'you said he didn't have a guard!' and 'he didn't have one yesterday!' and various bickering of that sort. Corbin buried his face in Cyrus' chest and exhaled shakily.

" i told you me coming along was a good idea.." he mumbled to corbin.

"Mmnh… yeah…" Corbin mumbled in reply. "Hopefully they don't come back…"

" they'll probably wait until we separate again.." he mentioned softly

"Yeah, I guess so… maybe I should get a whistle or something for when I need you." Corbin laughed weakly.

cyrus laughed a bit " bark bark"

"Mhmm. My big, scary guard puppy." Corbin ruffled Cyrus' hair a bit.

Cyrus gave a bright smile. “ I love you, so much-“ he said softly and rested his head on Corbin’s, keeping their faces close

"Love you too…" Corbin murmured in reply, slowly relaxing so that he could finish his shift.

Cyrus read his book peacefully

Eventually, Corbin's shift ended and he was allowed to go home.

Cyrus walked with Corbin, watching their surroundings carefully

Corbin held tightly to Cyrus' hand, looking around to make sure the guys weren't following them.

Cyrus kept corbin close, his hot breaths fogging in the night air
