"So how did youlike breakfast?" Jason asked and you smiled shyly.


"It is reallygood; uhm...where is a sink?" You asked and Lily looked at you abit worried.


"What's wronglove? Do you need to freshen up?" She asked and you shook yourhead.


"No, I mean towash the dishes up?" You asked and suddenly you were tackled andthankfully the back of the chair caught you as she held you tightlyin her arms.


"Oh my goodnessyou are so sweet!" She cooed nuzzling against your head and youfroze up not knowing how to react. She pulled away and gave asheepish smile, "sorry, I forget sometimes how kind and good youare. I just want to hold you." She then sighed and shook her head.


"I..its okay."You assured but froze up as you felt another pair of arms wrappedaround you, "...Jason?"


"If Lily gets tohug you, I do to." He explained as if that was a good explanation.You raised an eyebrow but couldn't help but think it cute. You didn'tfeel like a toy being fought over by two siblings, which is what youimagine you would have thought you would feel-if you could everimagine this situation. But more it felt like they both would use anyexcuse to get to hug you. They were cuddly, not suffocating.


Why not just askto leave then?


But you didn'twant to anger them, make them worried. They insisted they knew youand you told them before you didn't but it wouldn't hurt to let themget to know you weren't. Plus there was one or two times there weretimes it felt like you might.


Besides, a part ofyou was enjoying this. Enjoying feeling special.


"Now I believemy lovely brother and I owe you a bit of a history lesson." Lilygiggled pulling you up from your chair and you all picked up yourdishes, they led you to a basin which they put their dirty dishes in.They again led you to the room again and led you back to the room,sitting you down on the couches near the fireplace, it was not yetlit but Jason quickly went about fixing that error.


"So, what wouldyou like to know first? We'll answer whatever we can." Lily askedand you were starting to really relax, their expressions were sorelaxed and open that you couldn't help but relax around them.


Would it really beso bad to stay here?


The thought cameto you unbidden but you just ignored it. "I guess maybe what is thedifference between you guys and humans?" You asked and she poutedwhile Jason chuckled.


"If one of uswere to tell you that, it'd be me. Lils doesn't like science." Hechuckled and you gave a giggle, turning to him. Since Lily was stillpouting you reached over to take her hand and allowed her to holdonto it. "Well as far as the difference between us and humans,there are many diffrences, our ears are pointed," he pointed to hisears, "as well as our fingers." Giving a nervous grin as youpulled Lily's hand a little closer and looking from under her nailsher fingers did taper. They weren't claws but did come to a slightpoint. Taking Jason's hand you looked and saw that he, to, had thesame thing. It was so subtle that if he hadn't said anything whoknows how long you'd go without realizing it.
