Fangs frowned before unlocking his trailer carrying Sweet Pea in with Toni helping. "Maybe he won't know" Fangs replied breaking the silence as the two shorter teens set the taller serpent down on his bed. "Fangs... come on, he won't hurt you if you tell him you like him" Toni replied "I know he won't because after we left the detention center we made out right here on his bed." Fangs shook his head "I'm so stupid to even believe he likes me" Fangs threw his hands in the air as he grew upset with himself shielding his face with his hands. "Fangs you're not stupid" Toni smiled sadly placing a hand on the shorter boy's back "love can just be complicated. But when is it not?"

"He doesn't like me back it's not complicated! It's true" Fangs snapped at Toni before he hid his face again. "Listen Fangs, Sweet Pea has a tough exterior, but you have just enough effect on him to make him open up." Toni explained looking at the taller boy who was fast asleep. "He won't open up to me that's the thing Toni. He pushes me away when I ask if he is okay" Fangs retorted pulling at his hair.

"Sweet Pea can be a bit uneasy when it comes to stuff like that. He doesn't like talking about his past because he thinks of his past as mistakes he made that he thought were his fault" Toni frowned "What happened that he doesn't want to talk about?" Fangs asked his eyes dull with fear and heartbreak.

"It's his story to tell Fangs, but it takes time. Give him time and when he's ready he'll explain to you what he is ashamed of from his past. I can't tell you, when he has to tell you." Toni lowered her head wrapping her arms around the shorter boy. "It'll get easier" she whispered "just give it time."
