about two years after the main events.
-Hunter was outside on the porch. Despite the night air being slightly cool, he was only wearing a pair of sweatpants that hung low on his hips. His long green hair was tied up in a ponytail, now sporting a white streak to match Katherine and Hana.
He didn't jump when two cold hands gently touched his back from behind, he just smiled to himself and turned to look at his slightly messy haired boyfriend.
"No cigarette tonight, hm..?" Ray asked, his voice deep and slightly sleepy. Hunter laughed a bit and shook his head.
"Uh.. no." he said, still looking up at Ray.
Hunter didn't smoke much at all these days, he didn't need to. It was something he picked up during a time he was really struggling. Beverly even quit, so maybe she was his catalyst.
"Aren't you cold out here..? You're wearing nothing but sweatpants." Ray spoke, eyebrows slightly furrowed as he subconsciously pulled Hunter closer to his body.
Hunter shook his head, a slight smirk tugging at his lips as he put his hands on Rays clothed chest.
"Is something on your mind..?" The black and blue haired man asked.
Hunter threw his head back slightly in laughter, "So many questions..!"
He found himself whispering; not that he had to, but it was nights like this that made him want to keep their moments their own.
"..I was just shocked to wake up and not have you next to me." Ray said, his expression neutral, besides a slight furrow in his thick brows.
Hunter moved some hair behind Ray's ears, a few blue strands hanging in front of his face. He squished Ray's cheeks a bit, causing his lips to pucker in a silly way.
Hunter laughed and placed a kiss there, "You're cute," he said before he took his hands away and moved out of his boyfriends arms, "..but I'm fine. I just wanted some fresh air."
Ray seemed to be searching for a lie within Hunter's words, judging by the way his eyes slowly flashed across his whole face.
Hunter just flashed him a closed mouthed smile, his lip piercing glittering in the night, right next to the scar that ran down across his lips, catching Ray's attention.
His eyes softened a bit, and he nodded before he placed a soft kiss on Hunter's lips.
"You have so many piercings.." Ray mumbled, and Hunter laughed. "You must be tired, sir.. you're so talkative."
"Mm.. maybe." Ray mumbled before he placed his head down on Hunters bare shoulder.
"You should get some more.." Hunter suggested, tentatively as he played with Ray's hair a bit.
"More what..?" Ray mumbled.
"Piercings." Hunter said, expectantly. Ray was silent for a bit before he turned his head slightly to look at Hunters face.
"Where?" Ray asked, and Hunter turned his head to look down at him.
"You have such a pretty face.. strong eyebrows, but the rest of your features are so delicate. Any facial piercings could suit you."
Ray shook his head slightly, "Facial piercings.. I don't know.."
"Mm.. I could recommend more, but we might not see eye to eye.." Hunter spoke, slightly mischievous.
Ray laughed slightly, shaking his head. "I'm sorry.. but I'm not piercing anything below the belt. Even nipples are a no."
Hunter laughed, louder than he expected, but he found himself quieting when Ray joined in. His laughter was rare; but beautiful.
