Shiro's POV

(It's been a few chapters, let's see how Shiro takes the news about his family. A new Adam and Shiro arc has begun! Lets check up on our favorite gay paladins)

(Continued Flashback Dream)

...All I see is darkness, and all I hear is faint voices echoing in the void again...I don't know what they are saying....things are far away again....I think I'm beginning to like it here...let me stay here...let me rest...let me breathe again....please. That's all I ask...

..but no one will give that to me...I'm slipping away again....

As my senses awaken again, I feel something. Something familiar, it's like I have woken up to the same thing so many times before. I like it a lot. As my eyes flutter open I gently feel someone gently running their hands through my hair. Their touch is warm and gentle.

Heh, maybe waking up wasn't such a bad thing after all.

I shift the look up at the person. Of course, I find Adam.

"Oh, did I wake you?" he says, still petting my hair.

"No." I sigh, leaning into his hand and I lay back down and close my eyes.

"You sound tired. I'll let you go back to sleep. It's getting late."

I open my eyes again. I see him looking down at me, the soft lamp light softening his face and igniting the multicolored streaks in his eyes.

"Have I ever told you how beautiful you look?" I murmur, reaching my hand out to touch his cheek, his skin soft under my touch. He laughs nervously and blushes intensely.

"Oh, I'm okay looking I guess." he says blushing nervously. God he is so cute, sometimes I just can't stand it.

"Nope. You keep saying that but It will never convince me. You are the most beautiful person ever." I whisper breathlessly.

"Well, I think you're wrong. You are the most beautiful person ever." He whispers back leaning down, our faces getting closer.

"Hmm, can't say I agree, have you checked a mirror lately?" I ask, raising my head off the bed to get even closer.

"If I looked at a mirror to see the most beautiful person all I would see is you." He says, our lips barely touching.

"You are so cheesy." I mutter, leaning is slightly more. I can feel his warm breath on my lips.

"You are the cheesy one, you started this conversation."

"Oh shut up and kiss me."

I press our lips together in a messy but nonetheless passionate kiss.

I almost forget what I was dreaming about...
NO! I can't forget! Not now!

"Wait, Adam." I mutter, leaning back slightly. Adam pulls away, slightly concerned.

"Yeah Takashi?" He asks, concern in his voice. God I hope I didn't ruin the moment. I would've liked to continue but there are other things at hand.
I sit up and face him.

"I hate to break up the moment but I almost forgot. You were going to tell me about my family. About..."

I look to the clock on the bedside table.

"Five hours ago? What have you been doing?"

"Talking with the team. I was going to come right back but I ran into Lance, then Keith and by then I just figured I'd check up on all the kids. Just to see how they've been."
