Perfect Catch

Yuto stared at the boy before him, carefully examining every inch of skin that was visible. The boy's legs looked as if they had been through a shredder with the scars that rained down them.

Yuto used his fingers to ghost over the boy's face and move his bangs. He's hair was a delicate mix of red and green although Yuto imagined the boy's eyes were much more beautiful.

The boy laid in one of Yuto's oversized shirts and for his decency some of Yuto's boxers that hung off his legs. He's beautiful, was Yuto thought as he sat on the bed next to the sleeping boy. How could a delicate creature wind up in such a terrible situation? "Yuto come eat dinner," Shay called. "Lulu made a curry."

Shay walked over to Yuto and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Where did he come from?" Yuto whispered.

"We'll be able to ask when he wakes up," Shun assured. "For now come and get dinner. We'll save some for our guest too."

Yuto nodded and followed Shay to the kitchen.

Hours passed and crimson eyes gently opened. Wincing at the sudden light the shielded his eyes with the right hand. His left hand patted his body, feeling an unusual item covering him. The boy sat up, feeling the springs in the item beneath him move. He wasn't sure where he was. As he looked, nothing seemed familiar. His eyes then diverted to his legs and he ran his hands along the scars. This was the price he was to pay for running away. He felt small tears prick his eyes and fell along his cheeks. He was a long way from home and didn't know where to go. Sniff sniff.

That aroma, it smells wonderful, the boy thought. He hesitantly swung his legs over and used a new by wall to help him stand. He took small steps as he left the room and followed the smell. His breath become short as he struggled to continue walking. Finally his legs gave in and he collapsed with a thud into his knees.

"What was that?" He heard a feminine voice gasp from around the corner.

The boy closed his eyes tightly not wanting to look his captures in the face. He felt a hand place on his shoulder, his eyes widening and meeting a dark grey. "Are you okay?" The man before him asked. The boy remained quiet, too stunned to speak. "My name is Yuto. I found you on the shore."

"Yu-Yuto." The boy spoke slowly, his mind processing the language.

"Yes that's right," Yuto smiled. He then gesture towards the man in his right, "This is my friend Shay and the girl is Lulu."

"Shun, Lulu," The boy spoke slowly.

Yuto nodded and placed a hand on the boy's head. The boy flinched slightly at the caring touch. "Don't be scared," Yuto said in a soothing tone. "We only want to help you. Are you hungry?"

The boy nodded, he was ravished and the noise from his stomach confirmed it. The boy tried to stand only to fall back down. Lulu gasped while Yuto let out a small chuckle. Yuto careful looped the boy's legs into his left arm and used his right to hold the boy's back. The boy grabbed Yuto's neck. In a panic and he began to stand. "Let's get you some dinner, shall we?"

A/N

I legit dreamt up this plot but with Levi from AOT! I felt it suited these two a little better and I'm liking how it's turning out so far.

Hope you all enjoy it.
