Roman always loved fire, he especially loved cuddeling up to his lover janus during the winter months.
He love the way the heat brushed up against his fair skin, he loved the way the flames dances as the wood burned, he loves seen some sparks fly out of it sometime.
Usually water is water or anything to do with water,or forests and ore relaxing music calms they human mind but fire always calmed roman down it always has.
It was always a mystery to others to why fire was what calmed roman down.
But to roman it started when he was 4 mid winter, he was staying over at his grandparents houce, romulus had put the fire on and for the first time romans eyes lit up with excitement.
Now roman is 24 and he still loves the red flower even after it calmed some of his friends and familys lives.
Roman was sat infrint of the fireplace when janus arrived home.
"Dear im back"
"Weclome home love snake"
Jan walked into the living room to fine his husband sat staring at the mix of orange,red and yellow
"How long have you been staring at the fire my dear?"
"Couple of hours now"
"Roman its not good for you"
"But janny, its so pretty"
"I know dear but looking at it for a while can do damage to your eyes"
Roman then turned off the fire and looked at janus.
"How was work?"
"The same as always" roman got up and hugged janus,jan obviously hugged back.
When the two pulled away frkm the hug jan went to have a shower.
Roman went and sat back on the floor and turned the fire on once again.
After a couple of minuets roman wondered how hot the fire acctually is, he wanted to know if he would like the burning feeling of the fire or if he would hate the feel if the burn.
Roman reached his left hand out to touch the fire but his hand was soon pulled away by janus.
"Roman dont do that, you are going to hurt yourself"
"Weren't you in the shower?" Rokan asked looking at his lover
"I got out 5 minutes ago, and the fire wasn't to go on untill later"
"Sorry jan I couldn't help myself" roman mumbled looking down"
"Its fine roman just don't do it again" Roman nodded and let jan pull him up off the floor, jan then turned the fire off.
"Lets go for a walk, im sure shadow misses you" jan says.
Roman nodded, the two then went and put there shoes on and then they put there coats on and made there way to the forest.
A couple of day later janus had to leave the country fir a family meeting, janus concluded roman family but jans family did not like roman, they say that he is a bad influence on janus.
So roman was sat at home watching tv fighting the urge to put the fire on.
Janus gave roman one rule befoer he left and that was to not put the fire on.
Roman produced janus, but that was getting difficult, roman then put on one of this 1 hour fire videos that just had someone else's fire on the screen, there was not much sound and roman did not enjoy it. He wanted his fire on, he wanted to feel the head on his skin, he wanted to hear the crackle of the wood when it burned.
Roman slapped his arm
"No, bad roman you promised janus you wouldent"
Romam sighed and stayed at the fire on the tv.
After a while roman got board of the fire on the tv and went to bed.
In the middle of the night roman woke up to a fermillia smell.
He got up and went downstairs as that is where the smell was coming from, when roman made it to thr stairs he saw that all of the downstairs of the house was engulfed in flames.
Roman ran back to his room and grabbed his phone.
He messaged janus to tell him the ha loved him,as the fire was spreading quickly and now was at the bedroom door.
Roman then put the phone down as it was too late the call the firefighters, roman embraced the burning sensation, he also watched hie the fire danced on his skin and around the room.
"I love you janus" roman said befoer he lay down embracing his fiery fate.
The next morning janus read romans message sightly confused.
Janus then went downstairs and sat on the sofa and put the tv on, when he did he put the news on.
"At 12:30 last night a house on ******* Street went up in flames mysteriously,when the firefighters arrived it was too late, the house was nearly ash, firefighters went to look for survivers but there were none, just a body, the body has been identified as roman duke, we all send our thought and prayers to those he knew and loved him." Janus immiatly turned off the tv and screamed.
His scream was filled with pain as his lover was gone, dead.
Jans family came downstairs hearing him scream, when they did there hearts broke janus was on the floor screaming and crying. Jan's mother raced to her son and held him close
"Jan whats wrong?"
"H...h....hes dead"
"Who?"
"ROMAN, HE DIED IN A HOUSE FIRE LAST NIGHT"
Jand dad scoffed
"Serves him right, its what happens when you playbwith fire" that sentence really pushed jan over the limits
"ITS WAN NIT HIS FAULT, ROMAN WOULD NEVER EVER LET A FIRE OUT OF CONTROL, SOMEONE DID THIS" jan screamed as anger took over him, anger that someone had killed his roman.
"Janny why don't you go to your room and calm down"
"You don't understand he was all I had"
"What about us"
"HE WAS THE ONLY PERSON I COULD TRUST, BEACUSE WE TRUSTED EACHOTHER" jan then ran off to his room and cried as he femeberd the happy moments he had with roman.
Jansus spied one of romans jackets he had "borrowed" jan got it and out it on and smiled sadly
"I....I love you roman" janus whispered befoer he fell asleep
