Moe thought for a moment, was Ally proposing that they have a relationship? He didn't know if that's what he meant by "I like you", was it just a friend-I like you statement, or was he saying that they should "date". He decided to answer the part of the question he could, "just follow me, the hotel isn't that far." He didn't know how to answer the rest, so he answered with a question. "By you saying "I like you", are you saying that you wish to partake in a romantic relationship, or are you simply stating you like me? In either cases, I do like you too."

Ally snorted, shaking his head. "Honestly? I'm not sure myself right now. I just wanted to know what you thought, and I can't say I'm diappointed by your answer." He followed Moe, and if you paid attention you could see him being careful to avoid any cracks in the pavement and step over them. He saw a stray cat, and immediately all of his attention was on it. He saw the creature on one side of the road, obviously wanting to cross but seeming terrified about doing so.
"Okay, hold on for a second." He said to Moe. "I really gotta help that cat."
He stood directly across from the cat, watching the road. Four lanes. A car going by them in each lane every seven seconds, with all of them being staggered at different times. Like, there would be a car on the first and the last lane around the same time every seven seconds, but the middle would be clear. Ally planned his stunt accordingly. He made it to the third lane, about to cross the last, when a miscalculation caught up with him. Coming towards him from the left on his current lane, a semi. 9 seconds to impact. He swung his head around. Both forward and behind him, cars coming from other lanes with the exact same time of impact. With the time it takes him to move between lanes, he wouldn't be able to get out of the way in time. Finally, eyes flickered to Moe, and a sad smile lit his lips. 3 seconds until impact.

Moe was frozen again, he didn't HAVE time to be frozen, in this moment he had to act or Ally would be dead, for the first time in his life he acted before thinking. He raced forward, letting himself levitate because that was faster, he shot forward the wind nearly cutting at his skin but he was numb like usual, and it felt like little needle pricks, he stood in front of Ally, two seconds until impact, he grabbed the boy and lifted him in the air, moving both upward and to the side, half of him was saying 'people see you' and he realized he didn't care right now, the wind was painful to him he wondered how Ally was taking it, didn't matter, a little pain rather than being dead is a small price to pay.
They got to the other side of the road by the time the semi had raced by where they had been, Moe kept moving until they were in the safety of trees, only a mile from his hotel, when he stopped he set Ally down, at first he was relived and then extremely angry.
"Ally that was so stupid!" He shouted, the winter sage hardly raised his voice and he sure as hell had never been angry with Ally before.
"You could have gotten yourself killed! That was completely idiotic!" He said, he talked a tough game but tears were brimming in his eyes, god he was such a crybaby, he couldn't even yell without wanting to cry.

Ally hissed in pain at the wind, feeling it sting his skin before they were safe and grounded. He flinched, eyes wide as Moe yelled at him. He shrunk back, taking a step away from Moe and whispering quietly. "I'm sorry. I just wanted to help, I didn't think that would happen." His face was beet red, while he was fighting himself to not cry too. "I'm sorry." His voice broke, and he knew his face must have looked pathetic. "I'm an immature idiot, I know that already. I didn't mean to trouble you like that."

Moe took a few steps forward and for a second he was unsure of what he was doing, half of him wanted to slap Ally but he couldn't bring himself to do anything, instead he put his hands on Ally's shoulders, fully aware that he was trembling now.
"Please...Don't do anything that reckless again, Ally I couldn't bare to see you get hurt." He said, his voice shaking as well as his body, he didn't know he could tremble anymore, guess he could.

Ally nodded solemnly, voice weak. "Yeah. Sorry. I didn't mean to upset you, I just. I don't really know why I did that. I honestly didn't care whether or not I was in danger, was the weird part. I just did it. It's terrifying." Ally shivered, leaning forward to bury his head in Moe's chest. "I'm terrified. I don't even know what's going on with me. I don't really want to die, but I feel like some parts of me wouldn't mind it if I did."

"Ally, you're in shock, you just got kicked out of your home, you're not thinking rationally." He said, making his tone a little softer so he didn't sound like he was so mad, he wrapped his arms around Ally comfortingly, now he was more upset than anything else.
"There's is nothing wrong with you, you're just upset, rightfully so." Now he was trying his best to be soothing, god he didn't realize how bad he was at these 'emotion' things until he actually had to display them.
"Please, just never do anything like that again, please." He said, near begging now.

Ally hiccuped, struck with the sudden realization that he was crying into Moe's shirt. "I won't. God, I promise, I won't." He hiccuped again, now crying openly. "I'm so sorry. I'm sorry. I won't d-do it again, I swear." He pulled back, sniffling and wiping his nose, and staring at Moe with an unrecognizable look. After awhile, it shifted to fondness, and he laughed weakly. "God, aren't I pathetic?" He took Moe's hand again, tugging him towards the hotel. "It's chilly out here. We should go in."

"I- Uh- yes, we should." He said softly, then he said with an edge of sternness, "and you aren't pathetic Ally, this is normal for humans if you didn't act at least a little shocked then well, that would be pathetic." He said assuredly, he lead Ally forward, trying to hurry because it was so cold outside now, it was only 7 o'clock in the morning but it felt like midnight, it was so cold and numbing.

After a while they finally got to Moe's apartment, got upstairs, and Moe sat on his bed, urging Ally to join him.
"How are you feeling, dorogaya?"

((insert terrible google translates english to russian here))

Ally sat on the bed, sighing and leaning his head on Moe's shoulder. "Oh yeah, I'm just dandy. What does that mean, by the way? Dorogaya? I've always been weirded out by people calling me nicknames in languages I don't know, because for all I know they're either calling me something sweet or a total shitface. That's gotta be Russian though. I took ASL and Spanish in High School, so I don't really know anything else."

Moe couldn't help but smile at this, "it means 'darling' in Russian." He said, his smile quickly fading.
"I don't know why but I found it appropriate, if you don't wish for me to call you anything like that, I won't." He said, god he was so overly cautious.

Ally giggled, kissing Moe's cheek and smiling. "It's perfectly fine. I don't mind at all. Never really pegged you for the nickname type, but it's certainly endearing." He closed his eyes, breathing slowly. Soon, he fell asleep. As was to be expected, because nobody who wakes up at 6 in the morning can stay awake all day. Pretty sure it's a cultural norm to nap at least once.

Moe would have been blushing like crazy, but he really couldn't, so he settled for kissing Ally's cheek back, when Ally fell asleep he covered the boy with a blanket, and then because he was overly cautious around humans he gave him another blanket, just to be safe, unable to sleep himself after all this excitement he walked to the window, opening it and resting his legs outside of it; the warm air was stifling to him.

Ally woke a few hours later, uncomfortable in the stifling heat. He sat up, panicking for a moment when Moe wasn't on the bed with him. He looked around, relaxing when he saw the other sitting in the window. "Hey." He sat up, getting up a moment later. He got a head rush from getting up so fast, and stumbled into the doorway and hit his head. "Fucking hell," he muttered, steadying himself. "Remind me to never get up that fast again." He stood behind Moe, wrapping his arms around the other's neck. "Pay attention to meeeee."

Moe heard Ally get up, but his usual response was to ignore people so at first he didn't respond, but then Ally wrapped his arms around Moe and he slowly turned around, giving a lazy half smile to the other.
"Good afternoon, how as your nap?" He said, trying hard to retain his smile, he was honestly troubled by how hard it was to keep smiling, it was throwing him off, was he really this bad at displaying emotions? He was trying, at least.

"It was wonderful. God knows I couldn't have stayed awake all day after waking up at 6. I really need to change that alarm." Ally muttered the last part as an afterthought, making a mental note to do it later. "Wanna head out to the park now? It's a lot hotter." He got up, taking off the longsleeve shirt he was wearing. "I'm sorry, but I just can't wear that shirt in this weather. Too fucking hot." Taking off the shirt revealed his slightly muscled torso, though mostly he was just skinny. Playing two years of varsity basketball plays off, he supposed. He was well in shape, and was actually very confident about his looks. "I'm just gonna walk around shirtless and tally every teenage girl that giggles at me. I'll get myself a slice of pie for every one."

Moe rolled his eyes, trying very hard not to stare at the shirtless boy.
"S-Sounds like a plan." He said, shooting him a nervous smile.

He led the other teen outside, still wearing his raggedy old sweatshirt, which had many patches, holes, and now a large coffee stain. He really didn't mind though, he had this shirt for many years and he wasn't planning on getting rid of it soon.
"The park isn't that far, maybe another ten, twenty minutes." He said softly, looking over at Ally.

Ally laughed when Moe stuttered, shooting him a wink. So far on the way to the park, he counted three girls that stared and one that took a picture, which he posed provocatively for causing her to blush. After awhile of walking, he looked over at Moe's sweatshirt. "Y'know, that sweatshirt looks pretty worn out. Don't you think it's time to retire it and get a new one?" He tugged a little on the collar of the sweatshirt, giving Moe a quizzical look.

Moe shook his head softly, "I haven't really ever thought of throwing away this sweatshirt, my uh..." He paused for a moment, "my daughter got it for my actually." He said with a nervous glace, "don't worry, I'm not married or anything, both my wife and daughter have passed away, but. Yeah." He said, his voice oddly quiet.

Ally frowned, retracting his hand and looking down. "Oh, I'm sorry. That's understandable." He sighed, rubbing his free hand over his face while the other grasped Moe's hand comfortingly. "You know, I totally understand if you don't want a relationship or anything like that, it's perfectly fine. You just gotta let me know if you're uncomfortable with anything, okay?" He rubbed his thumb over the top of Moe's hand.
