Now on with the story!!

~Damion's POV~

I woke up with two sources of warmth beside me. They were back!! They must have gotten home while I was asleep!

Logan has his arms wrapped around me, holding me close. While Remus had his arms around us both. I was very happy.. and warm. I smiled and closed my eyes again to fall back to sleep, but Logan's alarm went off and the other two woke up. Logan turned the alarm clock off and buried his face in my back. I smiled. Remus opened his eyes and smiled widely when he saw I was awake.

"Good morning, Snakey!"

"Good morning Ree, Lo." I glanced over my shoulder at a sleepy Logan.

"G'morning.." he said softly. He still seemed tired.

"Come on.. we should get up.." I said, gently tapping Logan's arms to signal for him to let go. He did so and I sat up, the others following suit.

We each got out of bed one by one and changed into our normal clothing. After doing so Remus pulled me close to him and kissed me sweetly. I kissed back immediately. I had missed kissing them so much. Once Remus was done, Logan came over and did the same.

~lil time skip and 3rd person POV~

The three of them were sitting on the couch after eating breakfast. Logan and Remus on either side of Damion, keeping him warm. They were watching The Jungle Book. It was Damion's favorite Disney movie. And the only one where a snake played a significant role.

Halfway through the song Trust in Me, Damion began feeling a tingly-burning sensation on his left side. Oh no.. the snake-like man thought. It must have been time to molt.. he brought his knees up to his chest and hugged them. Molting always hurt for him. He didn't understand why, but it did. Logan noticed this motion and paused the movie, looking at Remus.

"I believe it is that time.. would I be correct, Dee?" Logan said.

Damion nodded.

Remus quickly picked Damion up and rushes upstairs to their bedroom. Logan went to the kitchen to get medicine and water before following them. When he had gotten upstairs, Remus already had Damion surrounded in blankets and he was hugging him. Logan set the water down and went to the other side of Damion and hugged him as well. Damion smiled a bit.

~another small time skip to about an hour later~
Damion's POV:

We had fallen asleep while they were cuddled up to me, but I was woken up by a wave of pain. I let out a loud hiss and my fangs detracted. Remus and Logan woke up after this. Remus got up and went to the closet. He came back a moment later with a small pillow that I would always bite when molting came along. He handed it to me and I immediately bit into it. That seemed to help a little bit with the pain, but not much.

This week was going to be hell.

~Time skip again because it's almost 3 a.m.~
~the end of the week. After he finished molting~

3rd person POV:

Damion walked out of the bathroom and into his room, with a towel around his waist. He looked at himself in the mirror. His scales were so clean and shiny now. This was the only good part about molting: his scales were brand new and beautiful.
He changed into a yellow T-shirt and black pants before going downstairs to see Logan and Remus.

Logan saw Damion coming down the stairs and rushed over to him and covered his eyes once he got on the main floor.

"What are you doing, Lo?" He asked.

"We have a surprise for you." Logan replied simply.

Damion smiled. He loved surprises. "Okay!"

Logan slowly led him to the dining room, keeping his eyes covered. The other two had set up a nice romantic dinner while Damion was bathing. There were rose petals all over the dining and living room, yellow, blue, and green candles on the table and all around the room, and an almost perfectly cooked chicken in the center of the table. Their most beautiful dinner wear was set on the table. And a bottle of wine as well.

Remus stood beside the table.

Logan uncovered Damion's eyes. His jaw dropped.

"Surprise!!" Remus said excitedly.

"Oh my god you two-" Damion looked at the set up. He appreciated even the smallest things he had, but to him this was huge.

The other two smiled at his reaction.

"Thank you two.. so much." Damion looked at both his boyfriends.

"You're welcome!" They both said at once.

"Now. Shall we?" Logan asked.

"Hell yeah!" Remus exclaimed.

They all sat at the table and enjoyed the rest of the night together.
