Desires and Prayers (Desiree x Male OC)

Temptations

Sinclair sighed, as he shook his head from before. He and his brother had made it back to their home, as they were able to return unscathed. The genie seems to not have been able to find their home, or at least, hopefully they did not find their home, as Sinclair hugged his body a little. He felt a little bit cold at what it is that has happened, almost as if he feels like he is going to freeze to death. Luckily, he is able to hold himself together and not lose control of his own mind.

He looks down at Zuri, who is also a little shook by what it is that has nearly happened, unsure of what to think of himself now. He had almost gotten himself into such bad trouble, and all because he could not resist the temptations of wanting a wish from a Genie Ghost of all things. Honestly, he is a little bit scared of himself for what it is he's almost done from before.

"B-Brother...what I d-d-did before-"

But Sinclair puts a hand onto Zuri's shoulder, and spoke out.

"Shh...shh...don't talk about that, okay? You just could not resist it, is all. It is not your fault."

Zuri shook a little bit, as he then spoke out.

"I hope so."

Sinclair spoke out.

"Don't hope. Know so. Zuri, you are a kind guy, you could not handle yourself, just like anybody and everybody else your age. If I was still your age, I'd be doing the same thing and hearty make the same mistake as before. So please, do not blame yourself for something that you had no control over."

Zuri looks up and nodded his head a little bit, as he then leans his head against Sinclair's shoulder, while Sinclair then rubbed the top of Zuri's head, in order to make him feel a little bit better then before, comforting him in something that had gotten very close into making him regret something.

Sinclair sighed, as he thought to himself.

'Honestly, I have no idea what to do with you. After all, you're all that I have left. Better then to have nothing at my side.'

Sinclair thought to himself, as Zuri continues to lean against Sinclair's shoulder, in hopes that he can still feel a little bit better. And so far, he does seem to get a little bit better, due to the fact that Sinclair's own presence seem to cause him comfort. He almost acts as though he is the shelter of his life, the sanctuary of his own existence, even though thru are already inside of a place that they can call home. How thankful that he is to have a brother of sorts, especially with how much of a good brother that he is to Zuri, even when he had nearly done something that had nearly gotten both him and his brother completely screwed. At least Sinclair understand his brother. Sinclair sighed, before he then spoke out.

"Hey, Zuri, let's say that we can go out and have some frozen yogurt, okay? You always liked that sort of stuff."

This made Zuri excited, his previous downtrodden expression now completely gone, as if it is not longer existing within him, as Zuri spoke out.

"Really?!"

Sinclair nodded his head, as he then spoke out.

"Yep. After all, it would be a shame if my brother is always this safe from the beginning to the end of the day."

This made Zuri happy, as he jumped and spun around his brother, and spoke out.

"Yes, thanks bro!! You're the best brother yet!!!"

Sinclair smiled a little bit at Zuri, seeing the at he is back in high spirits from what had nearly happened before, as he then spoke out.

"Then it's settled. Tomorrow, we'll go and get some frozen yogurt for you, and we will taste the sweet taste that it has. You still want strawberry as your favorite flavor to have?"
