I don't wanna be alone

Mith thought his heart would break when Itri began to cry. It looked to him as if it was the exact opposite of what the youngling wanted, and he pushed his face into the titan's chest. Though he was stunned, Mithras leaned into the embrace, bending down so he could tuck his chin over the lad's back. He only retreated when he felt Itri begin to pull away. "No one is ever nice to me." the boy claimed, and Mithras let his jaw drop open. An indignant sound left him, as if he were offended that they lived in a world where any child could feel that way, even though he himself knew exactly how easily that could happen. "Well Itri, I believe that everyone deserves a home where they can feel loved and accepted and wanted. And I think that you are quite an excellent young man, and I would be very happy if you decided to stay here with us for a while." He already offered him a place to stay, but Mithras still feared that as soon as Itri was back on his feet, a bit stronger, he'd take off again. Sure, the girls were having enough trouble with Gabe and Wynde, but surely one more couldn't hurt, right?
