( Ezio x Altair) " A soulmate in time"

Part #5, " Renaissance, Altair..."

" I am not used to this kind of wear in Arabia..." , Altair stated, solemnly. Even though Altair reacted strangely to the new and foreign clothing, he continued to put them on, just for going sort of, ehhhhh.....undercover, you could say.

As Altair buttoned up the last of the outfit, he had come to his natural senses, and noticed the open v - shaped chest area in the outfit. Leo complimented Altair, hoping that he would feel more comfortable in the clothing, as Leo was not looking for any one - man brothel, but a nice welcoming smile that he wanted on the faces of all his visitors. But Ezio, oh Ezio...

Ezio stood, but almost weak in the knees, trying to stand his ground. He had found Altair very attractive in the new outfit, the new.......assassin outfit?

Altair was wearing a hood, bleached in a clean shade of white, beaked at the front. Red sashes slithered from his waist, as there was a wrap - around of the red sash. Beneath the red waistband full of scarlet, a brown leather was there, rustic....but fit Altair perfectly, an assassin symbol the colour of a glimmering - gold connected by some chains of the same...gold. Altair had decided to keep the boots that he normally wears though, a leather pair with traditional Arabic designs emblazoned upon them. Then came the deal that Ezio could not stop almost drooling lustrously at the sight of.... the open chest....

Ezio was used to seeing himself as a womanizer in such an outfit, but Altair had officially stolen that title, wearing a beautiful orange, almost copper, maybe burnt orange on his second collar that sprang elegantly from his chest....? Whatever the colour was, it blended beautifully with Altair's spicy, tanned skin.

Altair looked up, and removed his hood, and saw Ezio staring at him, fondly...

Ezio shook his head away, embarrassed to be so surprised in a situation like this. Ezio was not used to feeling so shy, but when Altair took his attention to Ezio, he grabbed him by the arm with an excitement that you could tell he failed to hide, and said, " Ezio? Do you mind showing me around Florence, please?"

Ezio was stunned by Altair's change in manners. First time that he had met him, he was cold and sharp with his tongue, demanding too. Maybe Altair was just warming up to him, accepting him.......

........ Loving him.......
