Mine, not yours.

Azure accepted the embrace, only briefly, and then he backed off. Mort did not try to run again. Instead, he got back to his feet, shaking grass from his coat. He took a seat across from his brother, and offered the other boy a cautious smile. Mort was still afraid he would say the wrong thing, and cause retaliation in his brother. So often, Azure’s words were like barbs to him.

Mortis wanted, so badly, to hug his brother. He looked so small, and uncertain. But Mortis knew it was a coundary the other wasn’t ready to push. It might not be one that Mort could push. That, too, might take Hana. No. No, he wouldn’t let himself be jealous.

“There are so many types of love. Love of a… brother, love of a parent, love of a friend. Love for something more. It can be scary, to allow another to have a part of yourself. But the love of friendship can bring such joy. Something to look forward to. When you open your eyes, and already feel the excitement of spending time with them.” his voice grew softer, smaller. Mal had been gone for a little while now. He wasn’t sure what type of adventure his friend was on, but he missed her. Hana had been a bright distraction, but one he would give up for even the faintest flicker of hope that Azure might like him again.
