Angel ran through the room trying to finish up Cleo's birthday present, he made a statue of her out of gold. Deuce was telling him he didn't have to go that far, but he didn't want to be mean and go empty handed. Even though she was cruel to him, he didn't want to be the same. Though he had to admit that it would be hard the carry. He grabbed the two spray cans and continued adding the final touch before letting it air-dry.

Deuce and Nathan sat on his bed watching him finish up. Neither wanted to go to the party. but neither had the heart to tell Angel the truth. Angel was smiling as he stepped back to see his work, he wasn't so sure about this. It was his first time ever doing a sculpture instead of a painting. Turning around he nervously stared and his brother and friend. 

"what do you think?" he asked them, Angel played with his fingers wondering what they would say. His brother wouldn't even glance at it before saying it was amazing even if it was terribly. But, Deuce on the other hand, will tell him the truth even if it isn't something he wishes to hear. Raising his head in hope and confidence he stared straight at them, pushing his chest out hoping to look more brave.  Deuce's eyes wondered around the statue, and even though it was Cleo, he had to admit it was breathtaking. Cleo didn't look like a ruler instead she looked like a sweet young girl who loved all.

His eyes wondered to Angel who was staring at him with the cutest look he had ever seen.

Angel finally felt his eyes on him, and faced him holding his breath. "it's beautiful" he whispered. Angel heard him even so, and smiled happily, "thank you" he said with the brightest smile he ever had.

Turning back to the statue, he gently began to cover it with a red cover. "ok, time to get dress!" he explained loudly. "yes!" Nathan screamed and ran out the door to his room. They heard a loud sound before a grunt followed. He guessed his brother hit the door face first.

Chuckling softly he walked to his closet, slowly he began to slip his shirt off until he saw out of the corner of his eyes, Deuce blushing as he watched him.Freaking out, he quickly covered his chest and fell to the floor hoping a hole will open up and swallow him.

"what are you doing?!" he screamed, he could feel his body heating up from embarrassment when he realized Deuce didn't even take his eyes off him until he scream at him. Deuce covered his eyes and ran out the room, probably not the smartest because the next thing he knew Angel heard a loud sound of something falling down the stairs. He couldn't help but smile when he thought of Deuce falling down with his eyes covered.

Angel made sure to close his door, before changing into his clothes. Putting on black ripped up jeans that were hold up with a chain rapped around his waist, knee high combat boot and a dark grey sleeve shirt that had angel wings on the back. Looking himself over once more in the mirror he smiled, and headed back down. 

Clawd, Deuce and Nathan headed back up to retrieve his gift for Cleo. As they passed he saw Deuce stare at him, before looking away with a small blush on his cheeks. He quickly headed outside and waited for them. He was a little nervous, considering they were going to Cleo, the one who has been cruel to him since he arrived.

They came back out slowly moving as they loaded it on the truck. He  watched as Deuce lifted it slowly for it won't get damaged. Placing his hand over his chest he stared at the floor in confusion, there was that feeling again, what was it. 

"ready?" he didn't even look up to see who asked, but nodded before climbing into the backseat. The only sound was the radio as Clawd sang along to some of it, Angel mind was somewhere else. He watched the houses go by as he thought how he felt. 

It wasn't right, if he really felt something for Deuce then he should leave soon. He didn't wish to get hurt again, never did Angel ever want to feel that pain, his chest tightened at the thought.

He never noticed Deuce watching him from the window, wondering why he won't look at him, even though they were sitting so close.

Big, yup that's all Angel could think of when he saw Cleo's tomb, oh and Rich. He suddenly felt like turning around and running away but his brother pushed him forward. Nefera was the one to answer, she smiled and tackled him to the ground.

"Angel! welcome!" pushing them all in, she watched in shock as Deuce and Clawd placed Angel's present with the other's. "um...what?" she asked him.

Angel blushed, "i didn't want to be mean.. you know..?'

She smiled and nodded, he was to sweet for his own good sometime's. Deuce stared at him and made a move to pat his head, but he pulled away. Nefera saw this, and pushed Angel into his chest, "go dance" she said before leaving. That's when Angel noticed all the people dancing as well as the bright lights shining around.

He looked up and stared at Deuce before looking away, Deuce, holding his hand out hoping he would take it, happily he did. Slowly they made there way to the dance floor, they ignored the questioningly look they got from the other's, who wondered why Deuce wasn't with Cleo. Angel didn't care about the stare's all he could think about was how amazing it felt to be in Deuce's arms, he felt his arm tighten around his waist as they moved together.

 The music wasn't slow so it didn't look that strange for two guys to dance with each other, and that calmed him down a little, but nothing could calm his heart from beating fast. Time must have not been on his side. As he began to relax the music began to slow down to a piano melody.

He tried to pull himself away from Deuce since the only one's still on the dance floor was couples, but instead of letting go his arms tightened around him. Angel felt as though he was saying i won't let go, ever.

He knew he should've pulled away, even run but he couldn't the way Deuce hold him made him want to stay and never leave his side. But he knew he had to, he had someone, Cleo, Angel couldn't be with him. Because Deuce loved Cleo. Not him.

 After a few minutes he pushed himself away, but his arms were still around him. Shyly looking up, "can you let go?" he asked him nervously. He didn't get an answer as Deuce pulled him into his chest, one arm circled his waist as the other grabbed his hair softly/ Tilting his head up, forcing him to look at him. 'no" he whispered sending shivers down his spine. Deuce had never spoke like that before, confused he stared at him as he leaned in closer. "if i let you go.....you won't come back"

that confused him, but at the same time he knew he was right. Even if he could stay in his arms, Angel knew something was gonna pull him away. He only wished he knew what it was going to be.

'Angel"

deuce whispered his name quietly, except even with the music it sounded as though he yelled it. Slowly he slipped his glasses off, placing them in his pocket. Grabbing Angel's face gently, he leaned in. Angel knew that they shouldn't, but he couldn't help himself, the one he loved was about to kiss him. Closing his eyes, as the distance between their lips got smaller and smaller, a few more inches and they would've had their very first kiss. If only someone hadn't crashed into Deuce sending him down to the floor hard.

Cleo laid above him, his eyes teared up as he saw them kiss, Deuce's hand was around her head, as though he enjoyed it. With that he ran off to his brother who saw everything, he didn't question him as he ran to him hugging him tightly asking him if they could leave.

 But then a loud shout, something that broke Angel's heart , "i'm pregnant!"

With that he ran out the tomb ignoring the shouts of his name for him to come back. He expanded his wings and flew home, not even looking back to see Deuce come running after hi, only to see him fly away.
