Loving Them Both

Flightless bird american mouth

I was a quick wet boy, diving to deep for coins, all of you street wide eyes wide on my plastic toys. Then when the cops closed the fair I cut my long baby hair, stole me a dog ear'd map, and called for you everywhere. Have I found you? Flightless bird. Jealous, weeping, or lost you? American mouth. Big pill, stuck going down.

"NO IM NOT COOKING!" I laughed as Klaus, Bri, and Drew ganged up on me to help cook.

"Come on! We just need some help." Bri urged.

"I'm not going to be much help." I insisted.

"Fine, if you're going to be stubborn go over there and stay out of the way." Bri said.

"Fine by me."

Klaus decided to come and sit with me.

"Where was Zaiden today?" He asked.

"Bri told me he got suspended for cussing out a teacher."

"Why am I not surprised."

"I don't think anyone was surprised."

"So for real though, what do you want for your birthday?" He asked.

"Klaus I don't know. I haven't really thought about my birthday, because it's like a month away." I said.

"Actually tomorrow it's 3 weeks away." He clarified.

I chuckled. "Klaus I'm really flattered that you're counting down the days, but I'm not that excited for my birthday."

"Why?"

"Because I don't ever want to grow up, and celebrating my birthday just reminds me that in getting old."

"You're not getting old, but I want to get you something."

"I don't like people spending a lot of money on me, you know that."

"I'm making it, from scratch."

"Wait you're making me a present? And you already started?"

"Yeah..."

"Well I guess I can't complain."

"No you can't. It's almost finished though, and I can't wait for you to see it." He said.

I sighed and rested my head on his shoulder. "I miss you." I blurted out.

He chuckled. "I'm right here." He said.

"No I meant I miss us. We seem more distant since I became luna."

"There's a lot more work to be done than you thought." He said.

"No, I knew there was a lot of stuff to be done just I didn't expect you to do your work, and I would do mine. I thought we would be working on everything together."

"We will, soon, I promise."

"You don't have to promise anything. I was just saying that it would be nice."

"I love you." He said.

"I love you too." I responded.

After a while there was a knock at the door. Klaus and I went to go answer it,

"Zaiden? What are you doing here?" I asked.

There were two people behind him, a boy and a girl.
