I Almost Said I Love You-Chapter 112

Ozzy sighed and looked up at Thrax. "Can you put me down now?" he asked as the elevator took them up to the room.

Thrax: *chuckles* Wht if I dont want to?

Klepta: *shook his head n chuckles as he went to the phone to call room service*

Twins: *whipped out the room service menu frm the drawers n scanned thru, seeing wht they want*

Ozzy grumbled and sighed, rolling his eyes a little. "If you don't put me down, I will pee on you... seriously man, I need to go!" he warned, pouting up at him.

Edison blinked and snuck up behind the twins, peering into the menu. "Uh... vhen hyu arr done, could I schee it...?"Thrax: *chuckles* Alright, alright *lets him dwn n went forward to see the menu as well*

Twins: Hai, hai. Chotto matte ne (wait a minute, ok)? *made their order, which is a lot of expensive stuff, to Klepta before handing the menu to Edison*

Ozzy rushed off to the bathroom as Edison too the menu, skipping a few pages before reading it over. When he told Klepta what he wanted, it ended up being all sweets.

Twins: Heh~! All sweets?! Ur gonna kill urself eating those!

Thrax: They got a point *skimmed thru the menu n ordered wht he wanted*

Edison huffed a little. "... Dey arr nice..." he grumbled, moving to sit down, playing with his money. He'd never had so much before.

Ozzy soon came out the bathroom, looking up. "What's going on?"

Twins: Eddie-chan ordered nothing bt sweet desu ne~! He's gonna get killed wiht all tht sugar overdose desho

Klepta: Oh, leave him alone. He's been on the lam n on the run for a while. Just let him indulge a little. Its once in a blue moon anyways

Thrax: U spoil him too much, bro *made his order as well before handing the menu to Oz*

"Hmph... Hy'm a grown virus! Hy kan eat vat Hy vant ven Hy vant..." Edison huffed as his eyes narrowed before grumbling to himself, not wanting to be treated like a child.

Ozzy blinked and laughed a little, shaking his head before looking over the menu and making his own order.

Klepta: *read out all everyone's order to room service* Oh, n throw in abt a dozen or two cans of beer n a couple of nice wine, give us a good yr, wont ya? Oh n a couple of champagne as well. Thanks *hangs up* Alright, party's on! Lets get freshened up in the shower n come out in only our bath robes. Tht would be total relaxation

Ozzy blinked a few times, biting his lip at the mention of the booze. "Eh, I think I'll skip out on drinking, thanks..." he said, rubbing the back of his neck and grinning sheepishly. "I call first in shower!" he called out before running off to the bathroom before the damned twins.

Twins: Moh~! Luckily we hv more than one bathroom here. Ikimasho, Amber-chan! *made their way to their own room, since in the penthouse suite, all bedrooms hv their own individual bathroom*

Thrax: *made his way to the bathroom n entered while Oz was getting ready to get in the tub* Well, I'm not gonna waste this alone time aftr being TWICE interrupted by our spaztic sibs. C'mere, baby *enters the tub n cuddled him close*

Edison blinked a few times, watching his siblings go off on their own before looking to his brother Klepta. He flushed before quickly walking off himself.

Ozzy blinked in surprise when he suddenly found Thrax in the tub with him. He pouted a little and grumbled before leaning back. "Yeah, but don't get any ideas... I'm not in the mood now..."

Klepta: *noticed him leaving n took his hand* And where do u think ur going there, Eddie? *pulled him close*

Thrax: Oh, dont worry, I wont. I just wanna relax with u *held him close n kissed the side of his neck before turning off the water once the tub was full, just letting the cell croon against his neck*

Edison blinked in surprise as he was suddenly stopped, soon feeling the heat from the other virus' body. "Uh... Hy vas gunna go vash?"

Ozzy sighed softly and closed his eyes, relaxing back against him with a purr. "Mmm... well, I can say I am very relaxed..." he mumbled, absently playing with the water. "Great stress relief..."

Klepta: Oh? Going to shower... *switch his tongue* ohne mich? (without me) *picked him up n hoisted him ovr his shoulder before carrying him to the bathroom*

Thrax: Mm, I can see tht ur pretty relaxed *twirled his claw abt Oz's hair, caressing it gently*

Edison blinked in surprise and flushed, gasping out as he was lifted over his older brother's shoulder so easily. "A-ach! Stellen Sie mich, hin täuschen Sie Sie! [Put me down, you fool!]" he gasped, wriggling around.

Ozzy purred and peeked up at him, grinning lazily before closing his eyes again. "I am..."

Thrax: *purred n nuzzled him as they enjoyed their dunk in the bath quietly*

Klepta: *carried him to the jacuzzi tub, turned on the water to fill it up before putting Edison dwn* Well, shall we? Oder wünschen Sie mich Ihre Kleidung für Sie beseitigen? (Or do you want me to take your clothes off for you?)

Ozzy sighed and shuffled around a little. "Mmm... I shouldn't stay too long... I might end up falling asleep..."

Edison blinked in surprise, flushing a little before gripping onto his clothes. "Nr.. Ich kann es machen... schaut obwohl nicht an... [No, I can do it... don't look though]" the virus mumbled, turning his back to his brother before slowly pulling the long, sleeveless jacket off, dropping it to the ground, causing it to pool around his feet.

Thrax: Yeah, we're expecting room service aftr all *got soaped up n started cleaning themselves*

Klepta: N ur done *picked Edison bridal style n carried him into the jacuzzi, turning on the bubble machine n lowered him dwn* Mmm, nice, isnt it, Eddie?

Ozzy nodded and purred softly, grabbing a cloth and starting to clean himself up, purring.

Edison flushed darkly, covering himself up once he was naked, huffing as he was picked up and taken into the jacuzzi. He gasped softly, feeling the bubbles starting, biting his lip as he felt the bubbling all over his body.

Klepta: Mmm...Nice... *lowers himself into the tub with the bubbling* This feels reli good *inched himself close to Edison n put his arm ard his shoulder, then leaned close n kissed his cheek*

Edison squirmed around, the bubbles seeming to massage his body. He nodded shyly to him, glad that the bubbles were covering him up. "Ve... kan' schtay in too long..."

Klepta: Yup, room service is coming soon, bt we can afford to relax. I knw its been a while since u truly relaxed n enjoyed life like this *leans ovr to kiss Edison's lips gently*

Edison bit his lip before sighing and nodding slowly. He had to admit, it did feel good to relax. Blinking, he looked up, his eyes widening before he began to flush as he fel lips against his.

Klepta: *kissed him nice n slow n gentle, caressing his cheek, doing a little slow tongue dance* Mmm... *whispered btwn kisses* Ich liebe dich... (I love u)

Edison made small noises against the kisses, the noises seeming a little louder each time their tongues rolled against each other. "Nnmm... Klepta..." he breathed out, eyes fluttering.

Klepta: *cupped his cheeks to kiss him deeper* Mmm, Eddie *ran his fingers along the younger virus' hair, his other hand roaming ard his body*

Edison soon pulled away from the kisses, in need of air as he blush and panted softly, his hands having unconsciously gripped that braid of hair. "K-Klepta... Vielleicht sollten wir... steigt vorher aus... [Maybe we should... get out before...]" he breathed out.

Klepta: Nicht Baby, ist es OK… keine geht… (No, baby, it's OK...No one's gonna...) *was stopped by the ring of the bell*

Twins: *heard tht n made the dash to the door* Room services~!! *answered the door n let the waiters n waitresses in with their order* Yapparii~!!

Edison blushed, opening his mouth to speak again though paused as he heard the bell, feeling a little relieved. "Das ist Zimmerservice, sollten wir aussteigen... [That's room service, we should get out]" he said softly, squirming around.

Ozzy jumped awake against Thrax as the bell rang, his eyes widening as he looked around in the panic. "Uh... damn, fell asleep..."

Klepta: *grumbled inwardly* Fucking buzzkill *got out of the tub n dried himself*

Thrax: *rolled his eyes* I swear u sleep half ur life away *gets dried* C'mon, its chow time

*the waiters n waitresses finished bringing in the order n the twins just done tipping them big wen everyone came out*

Edison blushed deeply, rubbing the back of his neck before grabbing a towel and pulling it around him as he stood and stepped out.

Ozzy flushed and grinned sheepishly. "That time was an accident... so warm and relaxed... and playing with my hair... damn, it was good..." he mumbled before getting out of the bath tub and drying off before grabbing a nice, soft robe and wrapping it around himself and tying it. "Damn, I feel like a prince or something..." he said, grinning at Thrax, seeming genuninely happy.

Thrax: Well u deserve it. U got us out, n we're one step closer to getting our sisters. So c'mon, enjoy urself *came to the order* Awesome *picked up a champagne* Champagne shower! *shook the bottle n popped the cork, spraying the champagne*

*everyone cheered as they tried to avoid the champagne shower, bt soon held their glasses for a fill*

Ozzy laughed and shook his head at Thrax and his childishness before moving to get some food for himself and sat down, eating away.

Edison gasped, quickly moving out the way of the spray and wrinkling his nose. Moving over to the sweet cart, he purred and licked his lips, picking up a whole chocolate cake to himself and a fork.

Klepta: *chuckled at Edison attacking the cake n helped himself to some nice big ribs*

Twins: *shared sushi with each other, spoonfeeding each other, tho Amber had to settle with drinking milk coz she wasnt old enough for solids

Thrax: *got himself some calamari n raw oysters, sprinkling them with lemon n ate them whole*

Edison sat down, licking his lips before forking at the cake, eating it bit by bit, seeming very content in eating it.

Ozzy licked his lips, eating some delicious BBQ chicken covered in sauce, getting it over his fingers but he eagerly licked and suckled them before getting himself a coke that he order. "Mmm! So good!"

"Yo, maybe you should go easy on the booze, guys..." Ozzy mumbled, frowning a little as he watched them, shaking his head before he picked up Amber to put her to bed with Nessie and Chico.

Edison looked up, cake around his mouth, his eye twitching a little from the sugar overload. "Mm, why? What is it?" he asked, licking his lips and moving closer to Klepta to look at what he was drinking.

Amber: *whined, doesnt want to be put to bed*

Klepta: Its wine. 1970 Burgundy. Here, try some *poured a glass for him to try it*

Thrax: *was busy doing bottoms-up with the twins*

Ozzy chuckled and smiled. "I know Amber, but it's getting late now... and it seems your mommy and Daddy need some alone time." he said, rocking her gently.

Edison blinked a few times, looking to the glass of wine, sniffing it a little before he took a small sip. "Nnff! It tastes so schtrange... bleh..."

Klepta: U only had a sip. Drinking it all dwn would taste so much better, here *tipped the glass into Edison's lips n dwned it into the younger virus' throat, with Thrax n the twins cheering him on*

Amber: *protested a little, bt frm the gentle rocking, n frm whtevr excitement they had frm dog city to bird city, she was all tuckered out n started to droop evn tho she tries to fight sleep*

Edison blinked a few times, looking up at him before his eyes widened, feeling the liquid filling his mouth, only having the option to swallow it down, gulping it down.

Ozzy chuckled and continued to rock her gently, humming softly to her a random tune. "Shh... it's okay... you can play tomorrow..." he whispered, making his way over to the bed.

Amber: *had slowly bt surely succumbed to sleep, sucking her thumb as she curled up in Oz's arms*

*Nessie & Chico cuddled against her to keep her warm n to accompany her to sleep, yawned n slumbered to Dreamland*

I Almost Said I Love You-Chapter 111

Edison was the last one out as usual, keeping an eye on his brother's as the twins rushed ahead, shaking his head. Though, when they got to the game floor, his eyes widened. So many lights and sounds, it was quite... alluring.

Twins: Suge~!!! *made their way to the token booth to change to money tokens for their games*

Thrax: Well, this is pretty amazing. The last time I've been in a game plc like this was like...wen I was celebrating my 35th bday? Brings bk memories

Klepta: Well I havent played in ages. C'mon, lets go get some money tokens before the twins dries the cashier up

"Dey bedder not vaste all da money..." Edison grumbled before walking off to keep an eye on the twins and there gambling.

Ozzy sighed and rolled his eyes a little before looking up to virus. "Ah, very long time ago then, old man?" he teased, poking his side before he walked off. Maybe he'd play a few card games himself.

Thrax: *rolled his eyes n went to get money tokens as well*

*for the nxt few hours, the gang played all sorts of games: Poker, Black Jack, Roulette, betting numbers, Jackpots, everything there was there*

Klepta: *made sure tht he had enough winnings n knew to quit while he was ahead to move on to another table*

Twins: *tried out the Jackpot n the lucky buggers won at the third try*

Edison eventually wandered off on his own, looking around at all the games before coming across some slot machines. Blinking, he looked them over before searching his pockets and managed to find a coin. Looking around, he picked on and slipped the coin in before pulling the lever at the side. The pictures rolled inside before a buzzer went off causing the virus' eyes to widen as the lights flashed, winning a large jackpot on it. "Vhat the..." he mumbled, watching the mass of coins come out.

Twins: *heard him n ran to him* Yatta~!! U won too?? Suge~!!! Hurry up n gather those coins before someone takes it away while ur distracted! *took off their shirts n filled them with the coins, while Amber squealed n played with a few*

Edison blinked in surprise, rubbing the back of his neck before he gathered up the coins. "I... didn't schink..." he mumbled, shocked that he had actually won. "Um... maybe ve... go back upstairs now?"

Twins: Hai, hai. I dont think our own bags can hold more. Let's go change our winnings in cash, n find the others

"Hyu von?" Edison asked, though nearly slapped himself for even asking, those two probably tricked their way into winning. Nodding, he headed off with them, jingling from all the coins.

Twins: *aftr changing the money n helping Edison change hi, went to find Klepta, who was now playing Black Jacks, n was on a bit of a roll*

Edison rushed over to him when he spotted him, an excited look on his face. "Brodder... I von!" he said, showing off all the cash he had got from one lucky coin he found.

Klepta: *turned to see* Wow, awesome. It must be ur lucky day. Lemme just play one last game n we're off. U can stay with me if u want, Eddie

Twins: Hai~! We'll go find Thrax ottoto-chan n Oz to-chan then~! *bounded off*

Edison nodded and gave him a smile, seeming to be very happy and proud of himself. He'd never won anything before, and he'd never been so lucky.

Ozzy at some point managed to drag Thrax away from the games to a quiet area of the bar, having a little cuddle with him while they were finally alone. "I didn't think those twins were... THAT annoying..." he mumbled, nuzzling his cheek.

Thrax: *nuzzled bk* N I didnt think u would want some alone time with me so much. I was almost winning most of the cash there. Bt I like u being needy once in a while *held him close n started kissing him*

Ozzy huffed alittle and flushed some. "Don't get used to it, old man... I just don't like things being taken from me... those damned twins spoiled my... mood." he mumbled before flushing and kissing him back slowly, leaning in a little closer before deciding to dominate the kiss.

Thrax: *surprised at the domination bt not against it as he kissed bk as well, running his claws thru Oz's hair* Then we hv something in common then *kissed again n dominated the kiss with ease*

Ozzy moaned softly against the kiss, pulling back a little for air. "Mm... seems we have alot in common..." he whispered before gasping against the kiss, flushing as hands rested against him, making sure it didn't go beyond just a little kissing.

Thrax: *deepened the kiss, holding him close, n was abt to do the usual tongue-dance when they were interrupted again by the twins*

Twins: Hora~!! There u r! Doing the hanky-panky without us, eh?? Sa, ikimasho! (lets go) Kaeru-desho (lets go bk) We've got enough winnings to secure an uber high-classed room service!

Ozzy gasped as he pulled away, scowling a little and grumbling. "I give up..." he mumbled and sighed, pushing away from Thrax and getting to his feet, stretching a little. "Mmm... I might have something to eat and go bed..." he said before he walked off, his hands behind his head.

Thrax: *reli felt like using the killer claw on the twins right now for killing the mood yet again as he followed the twins n the cell to find Klepta n Edison* Dammit, if I cant give u kisses in private, at least I'm gonna need u close, real close *carried Oz the dangling way as usual*

Ozzy blinked before he gasped out, flushing and crossing his arms over his chest, grumbling to himself. "I aint a kid, you know!"

Thrax: *chuckles*

Klepta: *was collecting his final winnings n was abt to leave to cash in the tokens wen he saw them* Ah, finally had enough lady luck?

Thrax: Unfortunately Lady Luck is not exactly our side right now *glares at the twins*

Ozzy flushed and grumbled, wriggling around in Thrax's hold, sighing a little. "I just wanna go to bed now, yo!" he huffed, grumbling and sighing as Edison looked up from playing with his winnings.

Klepta: *cashed out the money* Well, I'm all done here. C'mon. Let's head bk to the room, get ourselves a lavish room service n enjoy the rest of the night. Sides, I think Chico n Nessie would be hungry by now aftr we left them there exploring every inch of the room

Ozzy nodded and grinned a little. "Mm... a nice big dinner with fancy deserts and everything!" he said, wriggling around more in Thrax's hold.

Edison blinked and finally looked up when he heard deserts. He was particually taken for sweet things. "Vell, ve have enough money to... enjoy ourselves..." he said before getting up and leaving the game room, heading to the elevator.

Klepta: *grinned as he notice Edison's reaction to the word "desserts", knwing his sweet tooth* Alright, bk to our room it is

Twins: Yatta~!! *punched the button to their penthouse*

Edison licked his lips, thinking about which desserts he was going to get. Maybe ice cream, or cake... or something warm.

I Almost Said I Love You-Chapter 110

Klepta: Land ahoy~! Here we are! *stopped the van outside the door*

Twins: *peered out of the window* Suge~!!! Oki desu ne~!!! (so big)

Ozzy blinked and peeked out as well, his eyes widening. "I-It was bigger than that mansion you had, Thrax!" he said, his mouth hanging open as Edison still mumbled to himself.

Thrax: Well, I must admit it, it does look rather extravagant. Well, shall we?

Klepta: Indeed we shall *got out of the van n handed the keys to the valet, n led the group into the hotel*

Edison followed quickly behind his brother, looking around in surprise, mesmorised by it all.

"Uh... how are we going to pay for this?" Ozzy mumbled, walking beside Thrax, glancing up at him before looking back to the hotel, toying with the bandana as Nessie bounded beside him.

Thrax: Well, tht's wht our platinum card is for, innit? *whipped out the platinum card*

Twins: A-ra? Platinum card? Watashi-tachi mo dōyō ni sore o motte (we also have it as well) *brandished theirs*

Klepta: Oh? U too? *took his own* Well, just in case if u hit the credit limit, use mine as well. I havent had the chance to use it

Ozzy blinked in surprise before he raised an eyebrow. "What's this... the Platinum club?" he sighed before rolling his eyes and heading inside. "So... how long are we staying? And how many rooms?" he asked, looking to the other's.

Edison seemed to wander off on his own, looking around the fancy place, fasinated by it all.

Thrax: Oh, u dont wanna knw how we manage to get these. Trust me. Hmm, I suppose as long as this bird carries on south-bound, we'll stay as long as it does until it decides to change course, I guess.

Twins: Hai, hai. In bird cities, they hv a navigational system n will make announcements to the citizens which course the bird is taking, so daijobu ne?

Klepta: *sees Edison wander off n smiled, coming up to him n nuzzled his neck* Impressed? Machen Sie ein Foto, es dauert länger (take a picture, it'll last longer)

Ozzy blinked a few times, giving Thrax a weary look before sighing and shaking his head at him. Maybe he really didn't want to know. "Fine... we really don't want to miss this... it'd really upset Edison..." he mumbled, sighing a little.

Edison jumped in surprise, his eyes widening before cheeks pinked as those words passed the virus' lips, making the hairs on the back of his neck stand up. He didn't know why, but he really enjoyed hearing his brother speak the language he was so used to. "Seien Sie nicht so großspurig... Ich bin nie zu einem Ort wie dies vorher gewesen... [Don't be so cocky... I've never been to a place like this before...]" the virus huffed at him, crossing his arms over his chest.

Thrax: More like upsetting u is more like it *chuckles, then turned to Klepta n Edison* Yo! Guys! C'mon, let's get ourselves chked in!

Klepta: Yeah, coming! *takes Edison's hand* C'mon. U can oogle at it more later on. Besides... *grins* Ich kann nicht warten, um den Jacuzzi mit Ihnen zu teilen (I cant wait to share the Jacuzzi with you) *went up to the group*

Ozzy blinked in surprise before huffing a little. "W-well... no one deserves to be in that witch's grasp!" he grumbled, heading off to the check in desk with them.

Edison blinked in surprise and flushed. He wasn't sure what that was, but with the way his brother had said it, it made his skin tingle. Biting his lip, he followed after them, watching as the cell beside the desk looked up.

"And how my I help you gentlemen today?"

Thrax: Yes, I'd like to go for the penthouse suite, somewhere where we can all fit in, plus pets

Twins: Hai, hai, with all the fringe benefits desu ne~!

The she-cell chuckled before checking her computer for avalible places. "Hm, you're in luck, we have one availible." she said, looking to them. "And how would you be paying?"

*all the viruses, except Edison, brandished out their platinum cards at her*

The she-cell blinked before reaching out to take one, typing away before getting key cards for them. "Here we are. Please use the elevator on the Right and press the button for the penthouse."

Thrax: Thank u vry much *takes the key cards n led them dwn to the elevator*

Twins: Yatta~! Sugoi, ne? Amber-chan?

Amber: *squealed happily as she looked ard her surroundings with glee*

Ozzy quickly followed after Thrax, grinning as he got to the elevator first and began pressing the button. "Come on~ I wanna explore!" he whined.

Edison slowly followed his brothers, looking around curiously wondering what this place has to offer.

Thrax: *bonked Oz's head lightly* Be patient, baby. The penthouse aint goin' anywhere.

*once the lift opened, the twins were the first to zoom out of the lift n were totally exclaiming ovr the awesomeness of the plc, having a field day*

Ozzy's eyes widened as he came out of the elevator, looking around in amazing. "Oh Frank, this place is amazing!" he called out, grinning as he rushed around, looking at everthing, Nessie following him, yapping at his mommy.

Edison slowly came out, his eyes wideing at the large room, his mouth hanging open slightly. He'd never seen anything so big... house wise of course.

Thrax: Hmm, pretty impressive. Oh look, they evn hv those weight-sensor snacks

Rouge: Nani? They hv those? Meh, Karera wa tashika ni dasan-tekidesu (they sure are calculative)

Ozzy suddenly ran off to the bedroom, diving onto the bed, laughing as he bounced, grinning to himself and sighing. "Mmm... this is so great!" he said as Nessie attempted to climb on the bed.

Edison made his way to the balcony, opening the door and walking out, breathing in deeply and leaning against the gate.

Klepta: *chked out the bathroom, which was his favourite spot of every plc, n nodded in satisfaction at upon seeing it had both a bathtub, shower n jacuzzi in it*

Rodeo: Sa, since we're paying for the penthouse, itadakimas~! *picked up one jar tht contained peanuts n ate at them*

Chico: *followed Nessie ard n also attempts to get up the bed*

Thrax: *shook his head n picked them both up by the scruff of the neck n dropped them on the bed* So, like ur new spot?

Edison was glad he found his own little spot to get away when he needed to before he headed back inside and moved to get himself a drink.

Ozzy sat up and laughed, petting the pup and kit before looking up at Thrax, grinning and nodding up at him. "S'great! This bed is like... the best bed I have ever laid on!"

Thrax: *chuckles* I assure u, once we get bk our sisters n settle dwn, u'll get a house with a bed just like this as well. Anything for u, baby *nuzzled noses with him*

Klepta: *went to get a drink too* Well, Eddie? Wht do u think of the plc, pretty neat eh?

"Settling down... that sounds so weird now..." Ozzy mumbled, smiling a little to himself. "I never thought you of all people would settle down... Though, seems like you're starting to get known out there..."

Edison blinked and looked up at him, sipping his glass of cold water. "Mm... ist gut..." he said with a nod, looking around the large kitchen. "Seems... dis place ist... made fur more den chust... schix, alot ov... room." he said, nodding to himself. Yes, his english was fine!

Thrax: I wouldnt mind, hopefully tht day would come. Aftr all, I'm serious abt having a family with u

Klepta: *chuckles n shook his head* Ur gonna need to work on ur pronounciation, bt ur doing fine so far. N I wouldnt mind conversing German with u, bt u still gonna hv to work on it if u were evr to learn to interact with other ppl outside, especially with our cell doll there

Ozzy blinked and looked up to him, a shocked look on his face. "You... you'd actually... stop for me?"

Edison blinked and huffed at him, pouting a little. People could understand him, so what was the deal? "Dey can understand me... so vhy vould I need to? My Engulish ist not dat bad..."

Thrax: Yeah, I would. Pretty much. Not any time soon, bt yes, I would...if tht's wht u want *chuckles* Man, I suck at this sappy stuff

Klepta: Ppl in the family, not outside the family. We knw u more than they do, bt if u want ppl to trust u, u hv to speak their language first. N I can teach u tht, if u want me to *secretly reaches forward to caress his cheek while the others r not looking*

Ozzy blinked a few times, before grinning up at him, laughing softly and shaking his head. "Thrax..." he began, looking back up at him with that cute smile of his. "... You're one in a million."

Edison blinked a few times, staring at his brother as his cheeks began to heat up. "I... I guess if hyu daught mhe... I could... learn bedder..."

Thrax: N u r the only one for me *leans forward to kiss him gently* Te queiro, mi bebe *kissed a little deeper*

Twins: *barged in* Sa, lets celebrate ne~!! Chico-chan, there u r! Ur imoto-chan wants to play with u

Amber: *squealed n hugged the kitten*

Ozzy flushed as he was kissed, his arms slowly wrapping around him, ready to pull him down on the bed though stopped, flushing and grumbling to himself, glaring at the damn twins for spoiling the moment. "Ugh..." he mumbled before he got off the bed, straightening himself out.

Thrax: *rolled his eyes n straighten himself up as well* Wht do u suggest, geniuses?

Twins: We go hv room service desu-ne~!! Bt first, we can always try the tables~!

Thrax: Tables?

Klepta: *had Edison in hand* Gambling, making bets, play the cards, run the roulette! The works, guys! C'mon!

Ozzy grumbled a little. The one time he actually wanted to cuddle and maybe make out a little and the twins ruin it! He sighed and looked up, blinking a few times. "Gambling? Is that a wise idea..." he mumbled, knowing their money was short.

"Ve'll be fine..." Edison mumbled, nodding a little to himself. He'd make sure they wouldn't play too many games.

Thrax: *sighs* Alright. Just a few games. Then we come bk, right?

Twins: Hai~! With room service n everything~!

Ozzy blinked and licked his lips. "Mm... room service does sound good..." he mumbled before stretching. "Okay! Let's go!" he said, seaching through his bag before pulling out his jacket, gasping when he accidently pulled out the school girl outfit. Blushing, he quickly stuffed it back in, not noticing Edison watching him curiously.

*thankfully the viruses were ahead of him n didnt notice it*

Twins: Sa, ikimasho~!! (lets go) *made their way out of the hotel n dwn to the ground floor where the games r*

Ozzy pulled on his jacket and quickly followed his virus family out the door, walking beside Thrax as usual.

I Almost Said I Love You-Chapter 109

Edison groaned softly when they finally landed, holding his stomach, still not used to the fast movements and crazy driving. Getting up, he stumbled and headed for the door. "Need air..."

Ozzy watched Eddie and chuckled, grinning a little at him before he got to his feet.

Twins: *was first to bolt out the door for the fresh air n rolled ovr the grass, n Amber crawled aftr them, copied them*

Thrax: Ah, nice solid ground n open air *took a deep breath*

Klepta: Enjoy it while u can, coz we gonna locate a hotel to stay

Edison glared at the twins before moving to the grass, smiling a little to himself.

Ozzy sighed and stretched a little, grunting softly. "Mmgh...? Better be a nice hotel... I deserve it!"

Edison glared at the twins before moving to the grass, smiling a little to himself.

Ozzy sighed and stretched a little, grunting softly. "Mmgh...? Better be a nice hotel... I deserve it!"

Thrax: Most definitely. I say we go for broke n stay in the most luxurious one we can find

Klepta: Gotcha. I'll just go to town n look ard, maybe get some brochures n road maps ard the area *stepped out of the car* I knw u can do it on ur laptop as well, Eddie, bt it pays to personally see things thru rather than in front of the screen *chuckles as he took his hand* C'mon. Walk with me

Ozzy grinned happily, glad that he was going to get to stay in a luxrious hotel. "Mmm, hot food, big baths, massages..." he mumbled, grinning to himself.

Edison was about to argue with his brother, feeling like he just insulted the awesome power of his laptop before blinking and frowining some, stumbling after him as he was taken off by him. "Vhat ist it... mein brudder?"

Klepta: Just want u to learn some hands-on experience of getting things personally instead of relying too much on tht box of urs. 'Sides *held him close* I wanna hv some alone time

Edison blinked and frowned a little up at him, his claws twitching a little. "It's not a box, it's an expencive peice of technology!" he huffed, about to argue some more but the suddenly closeness caused him to shut up suddenly as his cheeks pinked up. "Uh..."

Klepta: *chuckles* U knw wht, u sound almost like a normal person instead of a nerd wen ur with me. I like u tht way. Not the uptight bro right now, bt the sweet little innocent cute bro I used to knw n grew up with *nuzzled him*

Edison blinked before he huffed at him, looking away though he didn't try to pull away. "... I am not a... a nerd!" he grumbled before flushing at the nuzzling, looking around worriedly. "I am... not uptight, edder..."

Klepta: Right, n u looking ard as if someone's gonna jump makes it so much more convincing *sarcasm* Relax, Eddie. Let's chk out the brochures, maybe there's something tht can help us with our hotel search

Edison grumbled and huffed at him before he slowly looked around, sighing and nodding slowly. "Fine, but vould you stop calling me dis... nerd, I am not von..." he said, pouting as he walked beside him.

Klepta: Alright, alright *reaches the stand n picked up a few brochures to look thru, n also got a copy of the city map*

Edison stole a couple of the brochures and began to look through them, frowning a little as he read them over, squinting a little. "... I really should vork on mah Engulish..."

Klepta: Good heavens above, u spend half of ur life away frm us n u forgot ur English u used to speak fluently altogether. I suppose u evn forgotten our family Spanish native tongue now do u? *browsed thru the brochure*

"Ist not mah fault... Ve spoke German all de time... I only recently learned Engulish again..." Edison mumbled softly, blinking as he found a nice looking brochure and looked through it. "Spanish... ugh... I... not shure..." he mumbled, looking through the leflet. "Vhat about dis one? It looks gut?"

Klepta: *looks at it* Nah, too shabby. We might end up sleeping with bed lice in tht how abt this? *points at a common bed n breakfast outhouse*

Edison wrinkled his nose a little, watching him before looking to the brochure. "I dink ve can... do bedder..." he said, looking through more of the brochures.

Klepta: *aftr a while of searching, he saw one tht looked like one of those high-classed Vegas style 6-star hotel* How's tht?

Edison blinked in surprise before nodding and grinning. "I dink that vell be gut enough." he said, stuffing the other brochutes in Klepta's pockets.

Klepta: Alright. This hotel it is then. Let's go tell the others *kept the brochures he was holding n wen Edison leaned forward to stuff teh rest of the brochures, he snuck a kiss at his lips*

Edison grumbled when they wouldn't go in, blinking in surprise before he flushed darkly, his eyes widening as he froze with his lips against his, mind going blank again with everytime the virus touched him

Klepta: *smirks* Dont be such a stick. Gimme some more sugar, mein bruder *kissed him deeper, hugging him close*

Edison flushed and opened his mouth like a gaping fish, trying to argue with him. "N-not in public..." he whispered before he gasped as he was kissed again, clawed hands gripping onto him, already starting to get aroused again. "Nnngh!"

Klepta: *kissed him nice n deep, hugging him close, running his claws thru Edison's hair, coaxing him to return the kiss*

Edison made small noises against his lip, his eyes shutting tightly before he did his best to return the kiss, obvious that he hadn't done this before. Such happens when being alone all the time. "Mngh... Mm'nya..." he tried to speak, flushing as he managed to pull away a little, panting heavily against the Rabies virus' lips, his eyes still closed as he tried to calm himself.

Klepta: *smiled as he kinda found Edison's inexperience vry cute. Like a young innocent little flower ready for the taking to be slowly deflowered bit by bit. He ended the kiss with a hard chaste one before pulling away n traced his finger along the other's swollen lip* Mmm, sexy n tasty. So shall we go bk to the others?

Edison was left speechless, cheeks flushed and a little drool on his chin, a heat starting in his lower stomach. "Nngh..." was all he could reply with, seeming a little out of it with such a powerful kiss. He just nodded slowly, stumbling after the other as they headed back, feeling like a little kid again.

Klepta: *reached bk to take his hand n walked together hand in hand towards the van* Yo, guys! Got us a plc to stay!

Twins: Suge~! Where??

Thrax: *looked up frm entertaining Nessie's antics a little to hear it as well*

Edison followed after him, pouting to himself, his hair covering his flushed face.

"A place?" Ozzy looked up, grinning happily. "It better be good!" he said, crossing his arms over his chest, nodding to himself.

Klepta: Oh it's better than good alright. Here *showed them the brochure of the plc before entering the van to revved up the engine*

Twins; *peers in to see* Suge~!! Ikimasho, ne~?? (let's all go)

Thrax: Hmm, pretty awesome if I say so myself. Shall we then, guys?

Ozzy ushered Nessie back into the van. "Totally! I so can't wait, those beds in it look so comfy!" he said, grinning some.

Edison headed to the front with Klepta, sitting in the passanger seat, glancing back at the other's before looking out the window. "It's not far, is it?"

Klepta: *chks the brochure* Nope, shouldnt be too far. I think its within the beak area, n we r... *chks the city map* Just abt a few miles away frm it

Rouge: Sugoi~! (awesome) Hayaku, hayaku~! (hurry) Ikuso~! (let's go)

Rodeo: Hai, hai! Hayaku, ne, oni-sama~! *was totally hyped n excited, Amber squealed her agreement*

Edison nodded slowly, resting back in the chair before he took the borchure and looked through it, trying to read it. "S... spa... pool... bar..." he mumbled, wrinkling his nose a little.

Ozzy grinned a little, bouncing on his seat, excited himself. "I've never been in a fancy hotel before..." he mumbled, a goofy grin on his face.

Thrax: Well, get ready to be awed by it. I've stayed in a few once in a while wen money was fine. N usually bird city provides the best luxury hotels

Klepta: U said it, bro. *sees Edison learning to read the English* Getting bk to ur roots again there, Eddie?

Ozzy nodded slowly, a distracted look on his face as he thought about how good it could be, eyes sparkling a little.

Edison blinked and peeked up a little, flushing and mumbling something in german that sounded a little insulting though groaned when he realised he'd under stand. "Schut up... ist... 'ard fur me..."

Klepta: *raised a brow n chuckled* U'll get the hang of it. If u want, u can hv the twins or Oz or Thrax to teach u

Rodeo: Nani, nani? Wht do u want us to help, ne, Eddie-chan?

Edison blinked and was about to argue before his eyes widened, glacing to Rodeo and shook his head. "Nein..." he mumbled, shuffling and glaring at Klepta.

Rodeo: Hora~! U need help reading desho? Lemme teach u * helps him with the reading, regardless whether his little brother needed it or not, n Amber on his lap also listened to his reading, learning frm him a little*

Edison blinked a few times, his eyes narrowing at him as he shook his head, snatching the brochure from him. "Ist fine!" he huffed at him, turning away from him and grumbling, looking over the brochure again, squinting his eyes.

I Almost Said I Love You-Chapter 108

*the rest of the day was spent in Hank's office, chking out the eye channel n the sights, which was as usual, quarantine mode. Everyone was paranoid, n there were men with bio-suits everywhere, cleaning the plc up*

Ozzy looked on the screen, frowning as he shuffled around, chewing on his lip a little. "...Damn, you've caused a riot..." he mumbled, his hands slipping into his pockets. "Wait... what if they're cleaning outside, too? We'll be killed..."

Jaz: Dont worry. They dont exactly clean outside. Anyone tht goes out must be sanitized, then sanitized again before entering the compound. We'll just hv to wait till they sanitize us wen they go out, then make it snappy before they enter to re-sanitize again

Ozzy nodded and sighed, frowning a little. This was going to be hard, but that determind look crossed his face, that look that he got when he refused to back down until he was done. "Right! As soon as we're heading out, we have to get to the nearest exit and get out of here." he said, nodding some.

Thrax: Tht's the spirit, baby *clapped his bk n kissed his forehead*

Twins: Yush~!! *pumped their fists high, Amber copying them with a "Ush"*

Klepta: Yeah, we're getting outta here, aint tht a sweet deal, Eddie? *secretly goosed the younger virus' ass*

Ozzy blinked and shifted a little, laughing some. "Then we can find the last two..." he mumbled to him, grinning some.

Edison nodded slowly. "I guess so, I won't be happy until I get my sisters back tough..." he mumbled before gasping out as he felt the squeeze,flushing and batting him away.

Klepta: *laughed quietly as he moved away frm Edison*

Twins: *spotted it* Hora! There she blows! *pointed at the change of scenery as the dog was taken outside*

Edison grumbled at him before he looked up at the twins outburst, glad they were finally getting out of here.

"Right, we gotta get going guys... to the van!" Ozzy called, picking Nessie and Chico up.

Twins: Yosh~! *carried Amber n made their way to the van first*

*the rest of the virus followed suite*

Jaz: *along wtih Hank, hopped on their own car to guide the gang to the bladder express*

Once in the van, Ozzy set he pets down before sitting down himself. "Something times me it'll be a bumpy ride as Edison stood at the front to watch Klepta drive.

Klepta: *took the wheel* Alright, lets hit it, doll! *floored it n drove off, following Jaz's tail*

Edison stumbled and gasped, falling into the passanger seat and grumbled. "A little warning, please?" he huffed at him before sitting up and looking around outsisde.

*the group drove in full speed toward the direction of the bladder express, n if it werent for Jaz's car leading in front, they would've been pulled ovr by cops already*

Edison looked around, mildly impressed as they managed to get to get to the bladder with no problems. "Now... you have to time dis right..."

Jaz: *waited for the time for the bladder express to start creating a whirlpool, before sticking her head out n waved at them, signalling the green light to go*

Klepta: There she goes. Hang tight! *floored it to make a leap*

Twins: *stuck out their heads frm the window n yelled n waved* Sayonara, Jaz-san, Hank-kun~!!!

*the Rabies husband n wife waved to them, yelling something inaudible sounding like a goodbye, n the triplets leapt on the hood of the car, waving n jumping to wish goodbye to them*

Ozzy peeked out of the window, smiling a little before he sighing when the got out of view as they landed in the whirlpool. "I'm going to miss them..." he mumbled, slumping in his chair

Edison gasped and held on as the van jolted from landing, soon settling down as the virus looked to his brother, frowning. "... You are a crazy driver..."

Klepta: Yeah, bt I'm a pretty darn good one *grins proudly*

*the van soon followed the flow of the whirpool to be pissed out onto a lamp post outside, n once they were out, Klepta activated the protective shield n the anti-gravitational device n soon the van was airborne, free n far away frm the prison*

Twins: *watched as the dog was done with its business n followed its master bk into the building* Yatta~!!! *raised their arms up n cheered, Amber copying them*

Ozzy looked at the twins and snorted as the little spawn copied her parents, shaking his head as he snuggled with Nessie, scritching his ear, causing the pup to curl up on his lap and murr happily.

Edison rolled his eyes at his brother and sat in the passanger seat beside him, putting his feet up as he got his favorite toy out. His laptop. Opening it up, he began clicking away on it, yawning some. "So... vhere do ve go now... ah?"

Klepta: Well, our nxt stop is to find tht cat city, n if memory serves me correctly frm the vision I got frm Oz, it should be south-bound

Thrax: Well, as long as u knw where ya going. *went up to Oz, took the pup off his lap, put it in his own n went to cuddle against the cell instead* Great work there, baby

Edison peeked up and nodded slowly, sighing a little. "Seems like we have a long way to go..." he mumbles, yawning a little and setting his laptop down.

Ozzy blinked and pouted when Nessie was taken from him, his hand absently fondling the bandana around his neck. "Yeah... I'm really going to miss them, though..."

Twins: Hai, hai~! Demo, now its not the time to be sad ne~! We need to keep our spirits up~! N to do tht, we celebrate Oz to-chan's hard work~!

Ozzy blinked and looked up when he heard those damned twins, frowning a little. Celebrate? "And how do you plan on celebrating in this tiny place?" he grumbled, squirming in Thrax's arms.

Twins: Sa, we stop by at a bird city of course! Ne, oni-sama?

Klepta: Yup. Only in bird city will there be the best booze money can buy. Since we're airborne, why not? We'll just find a bird tht is south-bound n we're home free

Thrax: U knw wht, tht is reli a good idea. Maybe we should stay in a hotel while we're at it. My baby deserves the treatment

Ozzy blinked a few times before sighing and slumping. He was so outbeaten here. "Fine, but I'm sticking to juice..." he grumbled softly as Edison nodded in agreement with the white blood cell.

"Ve shouldn't vait too long... we got to find my sister's, remember..." the young, German measles influanced virus mumbled, frowning a little.

Klepta: Of course we're not staying long. Anyway, if the bird is south-bound, then we're on our way there as well. Dont worry abt it. Be thankful tht Oz got us outta the plc

Twins: Hai, hai! Arigato, Oz to-chan *each twin cupped one side of Oz's cheek n nuzzled noses with him*

Edison grumbled a little before he crossed his arms over his chest and looked out the window. "You know... drinking istn't de only vey to... celebrate..." he struggled a little, so used to speaking German that English was hard for him now.

Ozzy blinked before his eyes widened and he leaned away some, his cheeks slightly pinking at the nuzzling. "O-oi, gerroff me, yo! That's a little too close!"

Klepta: Why? Would u rather if we celebrate in a... "different way"?

Twins: *giggled n tickled him a little before tending to their little girl*

Thrax: *rolled his eyes* I swear they still think they're teenagers

Edison blinked and looked back at him, a confused look on his face. "What... are you suggesting?" he asked, crossing one leg over the other on the dashboard.

Ozzy rubbed his cheeks, flushing and grumbled before looking to Thrax, sighing. "That girl is going to be learning to grow up like them..."

Klepta: *chuckles as he used a German accent, albeit a sexy-sounding one as he whispered at his ear* Jou knw vat I mean, mein love...

Thrax: With any luck, she might probably survive their spaztic antics. Tho, I am still looking forward for u to do the same *evil smirk*

Edison blinked in surprise before his cheeks pinked up as he shivered. "Nn... stop dat... dey might 'ere..." he whispered, chewing on his lip.

Ozzy blinked a few times before he facepalmed, shaking his head at him. "Don't get any ideas..."

Klepta: Why? R u so ashamed of me tht u dont wanna ppl to knw tht I love u?

Thrax: *chuckles* Oh, u'll nvr knw. It might grow on u, since ur so good with kids now

Edison blinked in surprise, his eyes widening a little as he quickly shook his head. "Nein! I... I vould neva be... a-ashamed ov mein brudder..." he said softly, chewing on his lip still.

Ozzy grumbled and sighed. "Even if I did agree, it's not the best of times to have a kid..."

Klepta: *smiled gently* Then I will wait patiently for the day u r ready to let ppl knw tht I love u *patted his head before taking the wheel again* Bird ahoy~! South-bound ahead!

Thrax: *was abt to respond wen he heard Klepta's call* Alright! Right on time!

Twins: Yapparii~! Bird city, ikimasho~! (let's go)

*the pets n Amber cheered in their own way*

Edison looked to Klepta, flushing some before he smiled lightly to himself and sat back. He would gain the courage for him.

Ozzy blinked and looked up, stretching a little. "Good, I hate being stuck in this van..."

Klepta: *drove the van dwn towards the direction of the bird, n waited for the right moment for the bird to open its mouth before zooming in*

Twins: *cheered as the van made its way dwn to the esophagus n floated dwn to some wide park where they could land*

I Almost Said I Love You-Chapter 107

Downstairs, Ozzy was already at the table, stuffing his face with Nessie, looking very happy with himself. "Mmm! This food is so good!"

Thrax: *rolled his eyes* I swear ur a glutton as always *Sees Klepta n Edison coming dwn* Ah, finally decided to show up, eh?

Twins: We were thinking of finishing the food without u ne~! *guffawed*

Ozzy blinked and looked up, a dumb but cute look on his face before he shrugged, shoveling another mouthful in, never gain anymore weight shockingly.

"Ah... dis fool vouldn't vake up..." Edison grumbled, nudging Klepta before he moved to sit down, poking at his food.

Klepta: *grins* Yeah. Hadnt had such a good sleep in a decent bed in a long while. Sorry, guys. *took his seat n poured himself a cup of coffee for starters*

Edison blinked and frowned, looking to the other as he at felt out of place

Twins: *noticed Edison's uneasiness* A-ra-ra? Doushita, Eddie-chan~? U look troubled, ne~!

Thrax: *rolled his eyes, wanting no part of this*

Edison blinked and looked to his twin brothers, shaking his head as he slowly ate, eating his food. "I'm fine..." he mumbled, licking his lips slowly.

Klepta: *looked at Edison n grinned a little as he leaned his foot forward to caress Edison's foot, secretly winking at him while no one was looking*

Thrax: *saw Oz missing his bacon because he was busy entertaining the kids n stabbed it wiht his fork n ate it*

Edison paused with the forkful to his mouth, his eyes widening a little before he gulped and bit his lip. Glancing to Klepta, be frowned before eating his food.

Ozzy blinked before his eyes widened, gaping when his food was taken. "Oi! That's mine!"

Thrax: *chewed n swallowed his food* Well its in my gut now. Finders keepers *grins*

Twins: *laughed at their antics*

Ozzy whined in protest, pouting a little and glaring before slapping his hand, "Don't steal my food!"

Thrax: *grins n ignores him, this time stealing a small piece of ham frm his plate*

Klepta: *chuckled at the sight, shaking his head*

Jaz: *laughs at them. It had been a reli good long while since she actually laughed so heartily, tht is until Oz came along. She reli wished he didnt hv to leave*

Ozzy yelped before blinking and narrowing his eyes at the virus. "That's my food!" he snapped, soon brandishing his fork at him threateningly as Edison glanced over and raised an eyebrow.

Thrax: *already popped the ham into his mouth n ate n swallowed it* Too late, baby. Sides, u've eaten enough right now

Ozzy blinked and huffed, pouting a little at him. "You're always going on about how I need to eat more... though... when I do, ou steal it from me! I'm a growing cell, I need my food, yo."

Thrax: Have I? Heh, maybe its because at tht time u were thin as heck *chuckles at the cell's expression* Oh alright. I wont steal frm u anymore. Just one last one *snips away another piece of ham*

Twins: *laughing evn louder at them, the triplets followed aftr*

Jaz: Kids, its not nice to laugh at others

Triplets: *grins*

Ozzy whined in protest huffing and puttign his fork down, crossing his arms. "Fine, you eat it... cause I'm not~" he said, sticking his tongue out at him as Edison hook his head , keeping to his own food.

Klepta: *noticed Edison being out of plc, n reached ovr to pat his head, keeping up his big brother appearance*

Edison jumped in surprise, not paying attention to the outside world it seemed. "Huh? Oh, Klepta..." he mumbled, smiling some at his big brother before taking a small bite of food.

Klepta: *whsipered* U OK there, luv? U look distracted

Nessie: *was under the table with Chico waiting for scraps to be dropped dwn to eat*

Edison blinked at his brother, shaking his head slowly though his cheeks pinked up as he whispered to him. "... Klepta... where did you... learn German?"

Ozzy grumbled and decided if he couldn't have his food, Thrax wouldn't and snuck his food off his plate to the pets under the table.

Nessie: *along with Chico was happy to be fed*

Klepta: Oh? *smirked* Wouldnt u like to knw?

Ozzy sniggered a little, peeking down at them as he handed them food. "So, when do we get going?"

Edison blinked, almost, ALMOST pouting at the answer he got. "... Stop being so secretive... tell me!" he huffed lightly, poking his side lightly with his claw.

Jaz: Like Hank has mentioned, they usually take the dog out to do business roughly in the aftrnoon so we're gonna hv to time it right. U can come to the office later aftr lunch to watch the eye channel with us

Klepta: *chuckles* I learnt it frm ur foster parents of course. Well, jsut a little bit, whenevr I'm lucky enough to visit u n stumble upon them. N also I spent almost a mth in a German city. Some exchange student who got unlucky to be bitten by a puppy n forgot to do his rabies shot

Ozzy nodded slowly, sighing a little and rubbing his neck, stretching with a groan. "I hope it doesn't go wrong..." he mumbled as Hank chuckled and sipped his drink.

"Calm ya'self, Darlin'. It'll be easy, it's a round the same time, usually... we just gotta get ya'll down to the bladder with time to spare."

Edison blinked as he listened to him, chewing on his lip a little, remembering how good he was at it. "I see... vell... I'm impressed..." he mumbled, shaking his hair from his face. "You... still have a little to learn though... your accent is a little off..."

Thrax: Well, we're gonna count on u then to help us there.

Twins: Hai, hai, arigatogozaimasu~!

Jaz: *chuckles* Ur welcome. Tho to be honest, I would hate to see u guys go. U all hv grown into me

Klepta: Reli now? *grins* Well, I'm gonna hv to learn frm the best now, aint I? *used his foot to flirtingly caress Edison's*

Ozzy blinked and grinned at her, sipping his own juice. "If I could, I would stay, I'm sure the other's would, too. But... we've got some important work to do... Maybe we'll meet again? I really hope we do, and these little guys!" he said, ruffling one of the triplet's hair.

Edison nodded a matter of factly before bringing the fork to his mouth, though, as he felt the foot against his, he froze, dropping the fork in his lap and on the floor. "U-uh... sorry." he apologised before he shuffled under the table to look for his fork.

Chico: *saw the fork dropped n thought it was scraps for her, n licked at the fork, tasting the bacon*

Nikkell: *giggled as his head was being ruffled*

Jaz: Yeah I sure hope we can meet again. It's been such a pleasure hanging out with u guys

Thrax: Likewise here

Edison blinked in surprise as he saw the kitten licking at his fork. "O-oi... that's mein... damn Kätzchen [kitten]..." he grumbled, poking her nose before grabbing his fork and getting back on his chair, making a face.

Ozzy grinned lightly at Nikkell, looking to Jaz. "I'm sure we'll cross again, yo... I mean... I'm sure we're going to be passing through a lot of bodies..."

Chico: *mewed at her nose being poked, in which Nessie nipped at Edison's toe before licking her nose to make it feel better

Klepta: *chuckles* Here, hv mine. I'm done with it anyways *gave him his own fork*

Jaz: With any luck of us getting out of quarantine ourselves, I'm saying it'll be a while

Edison gasped in surprise, his eyes widening as he looked down and glared at the puppy, nudging him with his foot, mumbling something in German before looking up to Klepta. "Thanks..." he mumbled, taking the fork before wiping it clean to eat with it.

Ozzy blinked and sighed. "Yeah, well, we all know who to blame for that." he said, glancing to Thrax before grinning at her again. "I'm sure you'll get out of here, soon, this dog is clean."

Thrax: *smirked proudly n puffed his chest wen Oz gestured at him* Well, I got the goods. Evn Ebola is considered dandruff compared to me *grins*

Jaz: *chuckles* U've got one confident mate there, Oz.

Ozzy rolled his eyes a little. "Yeah, he ain't that good when he gets his ass kicked by a white blood cell!" he said, nudging Thrax in the side to make him deflate, grinning at him. "Plus, he's always haven't temper tantums..." he sniggered to Jaz, grinning.

Thrax: *frowned n bonked Oz on the head with his spoon*

Jaz: Well, Hank here throws tantrums too, believe it or not. I swear he's evn more childish than the kids

Ozzy laughed before he gasped, rubbing his head and pouting. "Uncool..." he hufffed before confiscating the virus' spoon, sticking his tongue out.

"I do not!" Hank insisted, crossing his arms over his chest. "It's just all you're imagination. Not once have I thrown a tantrum!" he defended, huffing a little before sipping his coffee. "The lil lady is just confused is all~"

Jaz: Oh reli now? Like the last time I didnt want to let u make this dog to mate with a stray female, n the last time I didnt want to let u hv sex with me without protection, or the last time I didnt let u hv cold stuff to eat bcoz it might irritate ur throat wen he had tht nasty cough, or the last time...

Twins: *laughed at the list of things Jaz spouted out*

Hank's mouth hung open as she listed thing, grumbling and pouting as he waved his hand. "Fine, fine! I get it~" he grumbled, rolling his eyes.

Thrax: *took the spoon away frm Oz while he was distracted frm listening to Jaz's list of shame n finished his food*

Klepta: *laughed quietly at the antics displayed*

Ozzy laughed before blinking, giving a confused look when he noticed the spoon missing. "Oi!" he huffed at Thrax.

Thrax: *wen no one was looking, stuck his tongue out at him, copying Oz's childish way, before grinning n ate*

Ozzy blinked in surprise, his eyes widening a little as his mouth hung open. "What..." he mumbled before facepalming himself. "You're a weirdo..."

I Almost Said I Love You-Chapter 106

*everyone soon slept thru their long deserved rest, n by the nxt morning, Thrax woke up afresh, bt not before jumping up wen he saw the triplets peering at them frm the foot of the bed*

Triplets: *giggled as they were being found as they climbed up the bed n jumped on it, squealing in delight, with Nikkita pouncing onto the cell*

Ozzy was curled up, sound asleep until the little girl dived on him, sitting up straight, his eyes widened in horror as he cried out, flailing. "Dear Frank!" he called out, gasping and panting as he started up in surprise, whimpering and groaning before he fell back on the bed.

Nikkita: *giggled as she leaned dwn to nuzzle noses with the cell* Wakey wakey, hanky panky~!!

Nikkol&Nikkell: *copied her, chanting her words in a sing-song way*

Thrax: *calmed dwn frm his shock n shook his head, chuckling as he watched the triplets "terrorizing" the poor cell*

Ozzy blinked in surprise, staring in surprise as the girl rubbed his nose, looking confused before yawning and rubbing his eyes. "Nnngh... There's no hanky panky going on here!" he huffed, sitting up and rolling his eyes at the kids, grinning a little before he began to tickle them, laughing more.

Triplets: *squealed at being tickled as they squirmed ard, trying to get away, trying to tickle the cell bk, while the excited pup who was also awoken yapped n jumped ard them happily*

Thrax: *chuckled as he watched the scene. It seemed tht it was almost natural for Oz to be with kids. He looked almost...beautiful at the sight being ard the little innocent children, n his mind ventured to a possible future where the children Oz is tickling right now would be their own little hybrid kids*

Ozzy laughed and grinned, too quick for the kids as he used his morphing to dodge the counter attack from the kids, pinning one down before tickling another, wishing he had a third arm for the third child. "Wake me up, will you? I'll so you!" he cheered, teasing between the one he couldn't grab and the one he had.

Triplets: *laughed as they played along with Oz, squealing happily*

Jaz: *popped her head in* Ah, so there's my little demons *comes to them* Alright, alright, stop bothering our guests now

Thrax: *grins humorously at the scene*

Ozzy looked up and laughed, pouting a little. "Nah, it's cool, Jaz, we're having fun!" he said, tickling them more before letting them go and stretching, rubbing his stomach. "I would love to play more... but I'm getting hungry, guys." he said, ruffling their hair.

Thrax: I'll go wake the others *left the room*

Jaz: Breakfast is on the way. U can freshen up first. These kids r due for a teeth-brushing as well. C'mon, kids

Triplets: *giggled n quickly made their way to their bathroom*

Ozzy laughed and waved at the kids before getting to his feet, yawning and stretching, seeming a little brighter than he usually was in the mornings as he moved off to the bathroom to get a quick shower.

Thrax: *went to wake the twins, who were already awake n feeding their little Amber, reminding them to freshen up before going to Klepta & Edison's room, knocking the door* Wake up, guys. Breakfast is coming soon

Edison groaned softly at the knocking and squirmed, burying himself more into Klepta before his eyes slowly fluttered open. Blinking, he yawned and slowly opened his eyes, looking confused before he slowly pulled away. Looking up, he flushed some when he saw he was buried in Klepta's chest and slowly pulled away, getting up and moving to the door to open it. "Mmm? What?"

Thrax: Wake up, sleepyhead, n freshen up. Its morning, n breakfast is almost ready, unless u lovebirds wanna miss the opportunity to get outta here *he meant lovebirds as a casual joke as he left*

"L-lovebirds?" Edison paled at that, his eyes widening as he watched Thrax walk away. Did he know? He couldn't know! No one knew... yet. He gulped and quickly shut the door, moving over to Klepta and shaking him. "Oi... get your ass up..." came the thick German accent as he nudged him. "Ve have to get ready..."

Klepta: *groaned* Mmh...5 more minutes, Ma~! *reached up to grab Edison by the waist n pulled him dwn, hugging him like a bolster, then purred contently*

Edison huffed a little. "Lazy little..." he began grumbling in German before he gasped out, feeling himself falling back down on the bed. "You damned brute... wake up!" he huffed at him, pushing at his chest. "I need to shower!" he grumbled, , glaring up at the sleeping viruse. They had slept long enough!

Klepta: *muttered in his sleep, purred as he nuzzled Edison's cheek, smiling contently, looking almost seductively handsome in a rather oddly cute way* Mmmh...

Edison blinked at the nuzzling, looking up at him before his cheeks pinked up again. He quickly shook his head, snapping out of it, trying to get out of his hold. "Klepta... get up, we have to get ready to leave!" he hissed softly, reaching to tug his hair. Plus, he didn't want to be caught like this.

Klepta: *winced awake at the tug, then slowly stretched himself, yawning n rubbing the sleep out of his eyes* Mmmrr...Wht time is it, Eddie~?

Edison sighed in relief, glad that he finally felt something! "It's morning... breakfast time... So get up, or ve'll be late... I'm going to shower..." he told him before getting up, stretching and heading off to the bathroom. Once in there, he turned the shower on and stripped off the clothes he got from his brother before he climbed under the water, sighing softly. A much better way to wake up.

Klepta: *rubbed the sleep off his eyes, then hears him in the showers n grinned, taking off his own clothes n entered* Mind if I join in? *went under the under with him*

Edison blinked in surprise when Klepta entered, covering himself up as he watched him climb in the shower with him. "K-Klepta!" he gasped, his cheeks flushing up as he shuffled away, shocked and embarrassed. "Vat... vat are you doing in here?"

Klepta: Wht? I'm joining u to shower of course. C'mon, its not like we've nvr showered before wen we were kids, altho, I gotta admit, u look pretty good in ur physique than u used to *touched the younger virus's slightly toned muscles. He may be a nerd, bt he sure was a pretty well toned nerd*

Edison kept his modesty and kept himself covered as he flushed. Chewing on his lip, he glanced away, coughing a little. "W-well... it tends to happen when you do alot of running around... you see..." he mumbled, watching his brother's hand explore and gulped.

Klepta: N such good stuff its doing to u there, mein bruder *grinned at the virus* Hey, nothing wrong with picking up a few German words, aye? Mein love *leans forward to kiss the nape of his neck*

Edison blinked in surprise at the near perfect accent came from his brother. "Oh vow..." he near breathed, flushing as his neck was kissed, making him shiver lightly. "Das ist gut..." [That is good] he whispered, talking about the accent and language, never thinking that Klepta could ever learn something like that.

Klepta: Ja, und Sie seien Sie schön (yes, n u r beautiful) *leans closer to kiss him on the lips, hugging him close*

"Ach, Klepta... Ihr Deutsch ist so..." [Ah, Klepta, your German is so...] Edison breathed out before moaning softly as he was kissed, blushing, seeming to be a little more comfortable a she heard that amazing language that he was accusstom to so much.

Klepta: Mmm, köstlich (delicious) *kissed him some more, leaning him against the wall, his hand threading thru Edison's spiky hair, which was a little flaccid frm getting wet*

"Ach... mehr... spricht mehr... [Ah, more... speak more...]" Edison breathed out as the kiss was broken for a moment, flushing deeply, shly gripping onto him with one hand, his other still covering him up, his head tilting a little into the hand.

Klepta: *takes tht hand away n gently reached to stroke Edison's length* Mmm...so stark und wärmen Sie sich, meine Liebe (so hard n warm, my love) *kissed Edison on the neck again, leaving tiny love bites as he slowly stroke him*

Edison blinks slowly before he gasped out, feeling the hand on his slightly hard length. Wait, hard? Oh my... he was hard?! When had that happened? He blushed darkly gripping his wrist lightly. "Klepta... ohh! Wir können nicht... Sie können nicht... nn... jemand kann..." [Klepta... ohh! We cannot... you cannot... nn... someone might...] Edison breathed out, though his hips bucked against the strange feeling, biting his lip, as his hand gripped his shoulder and wrist tighter as the stroking caused him to grow harder. He'd never felt anything like this before. "Ach... nnn..."

Klepta: Mmm, beruhigen Sie unten, meine Liebe. Sie ist OK. Gerade Gefühl und ließ gehen (calm dwn, my love. It is OK. Just feel and let go) *continues to stroke him, putting his lips on his to muffle his moans so tht no one would hear, his other hand caressing the hair*

"Nn... Klepta... Ihre Hand... Ihre Hand fühlt so... [Your hand... you hand feels so...]" Edison breathed out, arching off the wall just as the kiss muffled a rather large moan that came from the flushed virus who clun to his brother tighter, feeling so dirty but so... good!

Klepta: *continued stroking, kissing the younger virus hungrily, increasing the speed, his other hand lower dwn to massage his balls*

Edison whimpered against his lips , his back pressed against the wall, arched as his hips bucked. Pulling back from the kiss, he panted and moaned, his eyes rolling back in his head, his own claws digging into Klepta's shoulder and wrist before he suddenly cried out and came quickly.

Klepta: *smirked in satisfaction at seeing his little brother orgasm in his hand. once he was done, he took his hand n licked the come* Mmm, yummy. U taste good, Eddie

Edison gasped and panted, his eyes wide as he flushed deeply. He couldn't believe that just happened, he'd never felt anything so... so good! Slowly, he looked up to his brother, his eyes widening as he blushed. "D-don't do that!" he gasped as he watched him lick up the mess that just came from him, blushing more.

Klepta: Why not? Its not wrong to appreciate u. Come on, let's clean up. We dont wanna be late for breakfast *got the soap n washed himself*

"It's... dirty..." Edison mumbled, hoping to god no one heard them as he began to clean himself up his heart still thudding in his chest.

Klepta: *chuckles as he finished showering, nuzzling against Eddie's bk of neck* Such a cute little bruder I hv *got out n dried himself, n just so happen, Nikkol poked his head in, in which he smiled n patted his head* We're coming dwn soon, luv. Hv breakfast ready for us

Edison blinked and grumbled, flushing. "I am not cute!" he huffed at him before he slowly got out and wrapped a towel around himself, drying off before getting dressed in the bathroom where Klepta couldn't see before he left with his coat off and a towel on his head.

I Almost Said I Love You-Chapter 105

*the dinner soon ended, n the rest of the group spent the rest of the evening at the living room just plain chit-chat all the way till late at night wen its time for them to go to bed*

Ozzy relaxed back on the couch as he chatted happily with Jaz, seeming very closer already as Nessie ran around, sniffing at the new enviroment. Though, Edison stuck to himself, keeping quiet.

Klepta: *noticed his quietness n let him be. He knew it would be a long while before Edison started trusting anyone*

*the twins r having fun exchanging hilarious adventures with Hank, while Thrax showed off the chain to Hank, letting him see how much he had killed*

Edison soon got up and left the room, heading off back to the guest rooms and to his shared room, deciding to be alone.

Ozzy noticed the viruses and rolled his eyes, laughing and shaking his head. "They're like big kids... and Hank is just making it worse..." he said, watching the rabies virus praising Thrax for his hard work, patting him on the shoulder.

Jaz: Oh, let them. Boys will be boys, no offence to u, of course. Its rare for Hank to see other viruses than him, except for the occasional drop-bys frm some of his many extended families, so I let him hv his fun

Ozzy chuckled and shook his head, resting back. "I don't think I'll ever understand viruses... even if I am half a one..." he mumbled, watching Thrax, smiling slightly to himself. He could see how happy he actually was with the praise.

Jaz: *chuckles, then looked at the time* Oh, its tht late already? We better turn in now. Big day tomorrow *sees the triplets already fallen asleep, curled against Klepta's lap n shook her head, chuckling* C'mon, babies. Bed time *carried two of them upstairs, letting Hank handled the last one*

"Ya'll can tell me more ta'morrow, ya hear? Before ya'll leave..." Hank said, grinning and patting Thrax's head as he walked passed before he picked up his special little girl from Klepta, apologising before carrying her off after Jaz.

Ozzy waved and sighed a little, watching Jaz leave before he got up himself. "I guess we better get to bed then..." he said, though not feeling all that tired since he had napped before.

Thrax: Yeah, we better turn in. *yawned* I'm still a little tuckered out here *took Oz's hand n went upstairs*

Klepta: Yeah. N I better chk on Eddie, see if he's OK

Twins: Hai~! We're going to bed too. Oyasuminasai~! (good night) *made their way upstairs*

Ozzy blinked and pouted up at Thrax, grumbling a little. "You can go to sleep, I'm not. I'm not tired..." he mumbled, stumbling after tall virus.

Edison had gotten bored waiting for the other's to go to bed and got out his laptop, mumbling to himself as he began to search on it.

Klepta: *came in to the room* Hey, Eddie. Wht r u doing so alone here? U missed a good load of conversation dwnstairs

Edison gasped and looked up, quickly closing his laptop and coughing. "H-huh? Uh... oh... well, I was... kinda tired anyway..." he mumbled, shuffling around.

Klepta: Wht hv u been up to on tht laptop there, Eddie? Seriously, ur brain will rot if u go on the computer all the time

Edison blinked and shook his head. "Uh... nothing... just... nothing..." he mumbled, his cheeks pinking a little as he held his laptop to his chest.

Klepta: *raised a brow* Seriously. U knw u can tell me anything

Edison shook his head quickly. "W-we... uh... we should get some sleep! Big day tomorrow and all..."

Klepta: *crawled up on the bed n made Edison face him* Eddie. I knw something's bothering u. There's nothing u cant tell me

Edison blinked in surprise as he was forced to look up at Klepta, his eyes widening a little as his cheeks pinked up as he felt something weird go through him. "I-it... nothing... really..."

Klepta: Eddie, pls. I'm ur brother. Wht good is a brother if I cant even discuss serious things with my little brother? I dont care if u dont trust anyone else, bt if u cant trust me, I might as well be a failure

Edison bit his lip, shaking his head. "You... you're not a failure... you... you're the only brother that I have that I like..." he mumbled softly, coughing a little and moving his laptop under the pillow.

Klepta: *heard him cough* R u alright? *felt his temperature* U dont seem to hv a fever...bt ur cheeks r a little pink *cupped his cheeks to chk if there were any abnormalities*

Edison face began to heat up at the light touches. He wasn't used to being touched for so long. "K-Klepta... I'm fine... really..." he mumbled softly, squirming around in front of him.

Klepta: *aftr staring at him for a while, finally everything clicked: the body language, the attachments...he smiled* Eddie...Ur in love with me, arent u?

Edison blinked in surprise, his eyes widening at those words as his mouth hung open. No, he couldn't! He was his brother! But... he felt so differently about Klepta than his other brothers, than anyone else... "I... I..." he stuttered, for once having no intellegant thoughts.

Klepta: *smiled* I take tht as a yes. U do knw tht it is taboo among viruses, right? U do understand tht ur feeling is not just infatuation, bt something more serious, like wht's btwn the twins, right?

Edison gulped hard, his throat feeling dry now as he listened to his brother, shaking his head. "Th-then it's wrong... we can't... you can't... I... I can't!" he said, looking away and chewing on his lip.

Klepta: Hey, hey, its OK. *stroke his cheek* Its OK. If it were wrong, Hank would've said something wen he saw how close the twins were. Personally, I dont care if its right or wrong. There is nothing wrong with love, as long as its pure. If u truly love me, then I'm willing to accept it

Edison blinks in surprise, freezing a little, his eyes slowly looking up to his eldest brother, a great deep of shock and confusion on his face. "Do... do you... like me like that...?" he asked, his voice cracking slightly. He'd never been so nervous in his life. His very first mate... was his brother.

Klepta: *smiled n cupped his cheeks again, leaned forward to gently kiss Edison on the lips, letting the kiss linger for a full 10 seconds before pulling away, smiling again* Dos tht answer ur question?

Edison blinked before his eyes slowly widened as he felt his brother's lips against his own, his face began to heating up more and more. When he pulled away, the virus looked a little out of it, a hand slowly touching his now tingling lips.

Klepta: *smiled* I knw, its a little fast for u, we can take it real slow. No need to rush. We've got all the time in the world. N I look forward to tht time with u. For now, lets retire to bed, eh? *kissed his forehead*

Edison flushed more before he suddenly buried his face into his brother's chest, chewing on his lip. "Klepta... can ve not... tell anyone?" he asked, squirming a little, knowing the twins would have something to say about this.

Klepta: *smirks* Why not? Its not like we hv any secrets btwn the family. The twins made it pretty obvious theirs was no secret to be ashamed of * caressed the younger virus' hair*

Edison peeked up at his elder brother, his cheeks flushed with embarrassment and he bit his lip. "Please, Klepta...?" he almost whined, squirming around in his arms.

Klepta: *chuckled n leaned dwn to peck at Edison's lips* Alright. I wont tell if u wont. Pinky promise *held up his pinky like he used to wen they were younger*

Edison made a small noise at the kiss, flushing and looking to his hand before slowly curling his pinky around the virus'. "... If you tell, I will hurt you..." he mumbled to him, though the best he could really do was beat him with his laptop, and he didn't want to lose that.

Klepta: Of course not *chuckles* Now, beddie-bye time, Eddie. We dont wanna oversleep n miss our opportunity n all *lay Edison on bed n scritched the area behind his ear just the way the younger virus liked it*

Edison huffed a little before blinking as he was made to lay down. He was about to protest, but that scritching to the back of his ear was so hard to resist as his eyes fluttered. Why did it feel so good! "Nnngh... Arschloch..." he groaned before he slowly fell asleep.

Klepta: *smiled n kissed his forehead before slowly drifting off himself*

*meanwhile, Thrax was changing into his jammies, getting ready for bed*

Ozzy was stretched out on the bed on his side, gently stroking and petting the pup that laid against his torso. "You're getting big now, Ness... you are~"

Thrax: *climbed up the bed n noticed the pup's growth* Ur right, baby. He seems to hv grown a little, n I dont mean his weight

Ozzy yawned a little and gently scritched the pup's ear. "Finally growing up, are we Ness... maybe you're filling out for you weight?" he said, sniggering and shaking his head, pouting that he was starting to not be his little puppy anymore.

Thrax: *sees the pout* It's bound to happen anyways, baby. At least once he's grown, he'll be big enough to be able to protect u wen I'm not ard

Ozzy blinked and huffed, looking up at the virus. "I can look after myself, ya'know!" he growled at him, poking his forehead and sticking his tongue out.

Thrax: *chuckles, barely feeling teh poke* Yeah, I knw u can, bt it wouldnt hurt getting the extra protection n all. Aftr all, u knw I wont always be with u, n u would need him evn more if...I'm gone *ran his claws thru his dreads*

"Yeah, yeah... I know, cause I get to sit at home and wait for you to kill some guy then follow you somewhere else..." Ozzy grumbled before blinking in surprise and frowning, wacking him upside the head. "... Don't say something like that, you have your brother's help now, nothings going to happen..." he huffed, holding Nessie close. He already lost two families... he didn't need to lose a third.

Thrax: *grunted as his head was whacked, then scowled at him* U definitely r not gentle wen it comes to serious talk now, arent u? *went under the covers n had his bk facing him*

Ozzy grinned at him and nodded. "Of course not, got to get some sence into that thick head of yours!" he teased, sniggering and holding Nessie close, blinking and looking back at the virus.

Thrax: *kept quiet, his bk facing Oz. He reli hated it wen Oz got rough with him everytime he wanted to discuss serious issues. It was as if he wasnt taken seriously, n he hated not being taken seriously*

Ozzy blinked and watched him sighing before he shiffed around, his front slowly pressed against the virus' back as he nuzzled between his shoulder blades.

Thrax: *felt the cell nuzzling against his shoulder blade n sighed, wrapping ard Oz's arm tht was wrapped ard his waist. He couldnt stay mad at Oz for long, bt he wasnt abt to admit tht as he slowly drift off to sleep*

Ozzy gave a small yawn, smiling when he eventually got some attention before he curled deeper against him, Nessie curling up behind him before the sleepy cell soon crashed out.

I Almost Said I Love You-Chapter 104

*in abt a couple of hours, aftr sharing a few relieved drinks btwn the guests n bringing the kids bk home to get their well-deserved afternoon nap, it was time for Oz to bring in the cavalry*

Jaz: We'll wait for u here. U can go n get ur posse

Ozzy stuck to just having having water, polietly turning any alcohol down. He said good bye to the little kids before he turned to Jaz as he nodded slowly. "Okay, I'll be back." he said before he smiled to her and walked off. Moments later, he was straddling his bike and zooming back towards the van.

Thrax: *was pacing ard for the last 45 minutes waiting for Oz to come bk, worried at how things were going*

Rouge: Moh ii yo~! Ur gonna wear a hole thru the van floor~! Sit dwn, ne!

Thrax: Shut up *continued pacing*

Suddenly the roar of the engine died down outside and it was a few moments before the cell entered the van, still a bit dusty and cut up, dried blood on his slightly swollen cheek. "Yo." he said, grinning at them.

Thrax: Baby *impulsively went up n hugged him* I was so worried. R u alright there?

Ozzy laughed lightly and nodded slowly, Nessie happily loudly and running around them. "I'm fine... I got our way out. They're going to help us, but they want to meet you guys..." he said, grinning sheepishly.

Rodeo: Honto ka?? (seriously) Suge~! (awesome) Hayai desho ne~! (tht was fast)

Klepta: See? Told u our doll could do it *nudged Edison*

Thrax: Meet us? Why?

Edison blinked and huffed at Klepta, nudging him back and crossing his arms over his chest as Ozzy flushed before blinking, looking up at Thrax. "Something about making aquaitances and all that... I thought it wouldn't do any harm..."

Thrax: Well, I guess it wouldnt hurt. Since the cat is already out of the bag, I assume. Wht say u, guys

Klepta: I've got no probs with it

Twins: Ditto here ne~!

"Great! Cause... uh... we need to head over there like... now." Ozzy said, pulling away from Thrax to pixk Nessie up, cuddling him gentle.

Klepta: Alright. I;m on it *took the wheel n drove there*

Thrax: *frowned* I worried abt u all day n all u can think of is the mutt *looked a little jealous*

Ozzy nuzzled the pup, mumbling softly to him before he looked up to Thrax, chuckling and smiling. He made sure the other viruses weren't looking before he leaned up on his tiptoes, Nessie pressed between them as he pecked his lips. "Hehe... jealous of a puppeh?"

Thrax: *blinked at the kiss before huffing n looking away, making his first cute pout ever* No, I wasnt. Dont be full of urself

Ozzy giggled and grinned up at him, unable to stop himself thinking how adorable that was. "Aww... Thrax's wants all my attention to himself~" he teased the virus, tickling his chin.

Thrax: *growled as he picked the cell up the usual dangling way* Of course. Ur my baby. U should pay attention to me

Ozzy squeaked out, holding the chubby puppy tighter to him as he dangled in his arm, pouting and huffing as he kicked his legs. "Yo, put me down, damn it!" he whined, his body accidently rubbing against the virus' side. "Maybe I should punish YOU that way... no attention..."

Thrax: *grins* No way. It'll be more punishment for u than for me *nuzzled noses with the cell*

Klepta: *drove dwn n finally parked at the plc where Jaz n Hank were waiting*

Ozzy huffed at him. "Fine! I'll just give all~ my attention to Nessie here~" he purred, cuddling the chubby puppy again, nuzzling him.

Edison blinked and peeked out, frowning a little, seeming a little unease. He wasn't one for trusting it seemed.

Klepta: We're here now. So who wants to get out to greet the cavalry?

Thrax: Well, u knw them better. U do the honours *set the cell dwn n opened the door for him*

Ozzy sighed and rolled his eyes before he headed out, waving at them with a big smile. "Hey, sorry for the wait!" he called softly, walking over to them, Hank watching warily, his arms crossed over his chest.

Jaz: Its no big. *sees the group coming out of the car behind him* Oh this must be ur posse. *sees Klepta* Hey, Hank, look, we've a got a Rabies in the midst

Hank blinked and spotted Klepta, giving a small grin before he wrapped his arm around Jaz, pulling her against him protectively, making sure each virus that came out knew she was his. "Welcome, ya'll! Never realised we had so many viruses in Max..."

Klepta: *noticed the possessive trait of a Rabies virus n nodded curtly* Well, we're technically all half-Black Death-half-Dengue, bt raised in different families. Bt yeah, we're just here for the ride. We would've been outta the way if it werent for the quarantine

Twins: N its all thanks to THrax ottoto-chan ne~! *patted Thrax's bk, n Amber copied her parents*

Thrax: *growled n hissed at them* I swear ur the little girl's worst influence ever

Hank nodded and chuckled some. "Just so long as ya'll don't try to take over the place, ya'll can stay as long as you need ta." he said, chuckling before he moved closer to look at the little girl. "Aw, look at the lil darlin' how cute!" he said, tickling under her chin.

Ozzy laughed and shook his head at Thrax, rolling his eyes. "She's happy, what harm is there?"

Amber: *giggled as she was being tickled under the chin, reaching ovr to tug at Hank's sideburns*

Rodeo: Da...Dame da, Amber-chan! *pulled her away* Dont be naughty!

Klepta: Sadly we cant stay long. We've got someone we need to get to. So as u can see, we reli need to get out of this prison, just enough time for us to speed outta here n we'd be outta ur hair

Hank winced slightly before chuckling and petted her hair. "Such a sweety... ah, it's okay, I've got three, triplets, I had them tugging everywhere!" he said, laughing before he stepped back, nodding, turning serious. "There is a point during tomorrow when one of the guards take Max out for his business. Around the afternoon after lunch, we can get you out then..."

Thrax: Tht would definitely be a good time. I hope ur not too mad at my baby for lying to u n everything

Klepta: Yeah, n I hope its not a bother, since ur busy running dog city n all...

Rouge: Tomorrow, ne? Then issit OK for us to stay with ya?

Rodeo: Oni-chan~! *ribbed him*

Hank shook his head and grinned. "Not at all, no trouble at all!" he said before blinking and chuckling. "Well, it's been a while since we've had guests to stay, but it would make it alot easier of you were around tomorrow so there's no chance of delay. Jaz, would you like to show them to some where they can stay?"

Jaz: Most certainly, darling. Step right in *led the posse into their mansion n upstairs to the guest room sections*

Thrax: *looked ard n nudged Oz* Reminds u of a certain plc bk in Frank, doesnt it, baby?

Twins: *were marvelling the huge plc in their own Japanese way*

Edison followed behind them all quietly as he looked out, his eyes wide in shock at how big the place was.

Ozzy blinked and looked up, his eyes widen befpre his whole face flared darkly. "Shut it!" he huffed, walking faster.

Jaz: *led them to the area where the guest rooms r* Alright. Here's where u'll be retiring. Take ur pick. I'll call u for dinner later on. I need to chk on the kids

Ozzy thanked Jaz, watching her walk away before sighing softly and looking to the others. "I guess we go in twos then?" he suggested, still holding Nessie in his arms who was looking around madly, his tail wagging eagerly, excited about his new surroudings. "Ugh... I do need to shower though... and clean my face..." the cell mumbled, gasping when Nessie suddenly began to lick his face, 'cleaning' him.

Thrax: *plucked the dog away frm Oz* Not tht sort of cleaning, u mutt. We'll go for this room then *picked the one near the end of the corridor*

Rouge: Sa, then we'll hv this room then, ne, Amber-chan?

Rodeo: *picked Chico up while his brother held their daughter n went in*

Klepta: Then I guess we'll take here then, unless u wanna hv a room of ur own, Eddie

Nessie whined as he was taken from his mommy, bounding after them as his mommy and daddy walked into the room.

Edison blinked and peeked into the room, frowning some before he slowly went in. "You can sleep on the floor." he said before he climbed on the bed.

Klepta: *raised a brow* Nuh-uh. The bed is big enough for the both of us *which was true as he climb at the other side of the bed*

Thrax: *chked to see tht there is an adjoining bathroom in their guestroom* Well, ur in luck. There's ur bath

Edison blinked and pouted, trying to nudge him off the bed. "Get off, I'm having the bed." he huffed, frowning.

Ozzy blinked and looked over before grinning. Getting up, he headed into the bathroom and shut the door behind him, getting undressed while he turned the water on to warm up.

Klepta: *frowned a little* I am not in a mood to entertain ur childishness, Eddie. Its either we share or either one of us is getting our own room *waited for the virus' response* Fine, I'll go *turned to leave*

Thrax: *blinked at Oz's sudden departure into the bathroom, then chuckled n shook his head, he deserved to enjoy himself anyway aftr the effort he had went thru*

Edison blinked in surprise, his eyes widening slightly as he watched him. "... W-wait!" he called out just as he got to the door, biting his lip.

Ozzy was soon under the warm spray, hands running over his body as he moaned, happy to finally be able to wash.

Klepta: *stopped at his tracks* Wht? *his tone clearly shown tht he was reli tired of putting up with any shennanigans, n the fact tht he was just plain tired*

Edison bit his lip, slowly moving to give the other more room so he could get back on the bed, hinting that he wanted him back without saying it.

Klepta: *looked at him before sighing, then climbed bk up on bed n lay dwn beside him, holding him close like a big brother would to his lil bro* Sorry, Eddie. Its...been a long day

Edison bit his lip, nodding slowly before he curled up in his arms, mumbling softly. "It's okay... I think we're all tired now..."

Klepta: *nodded* Call me...wen dinner's ready *slowly drifts off to sleep*

Edison blinked and watched his eldest brother fall asleep. Smiling, he rested in his arms, closing his own eyes to rest.

Thrax: *had also fallen asleep waiting for Oz to come up, the pup tuckered against his middle*

Ozzy soon came out of the shower, feeling refreshed, a towel around hie wet body. "Heh..." he mumbled, seeing Thrax on the bed, shaking his head at him.

Thrax: *muttered a little in his sleep before turning to the other side*

Ozzy chuckled and reached out, stroking his hair. "... You worry too much..." he mumbled to himself.

Thrax: *purred a little at the feeling of being stroked, smiling a little in his sleep*

Ozzy chuckled and smiled. "Heh, idiot..." he mumbled, flushing as he leaned down, pecking his cheek.

*in abt an hour later, there was a knock on the door*

Jaz: Hey, Kia. Dinner's ready. U guys can come dwn wen ur ready

Ozzy blinked and sat up, his eyes widening a little. Oh, he must of fallen asleep. "A-ah... okay! I'll... I'll get the others!" he called out, yawning and rubbing his eye.

Thrax: *mumbled in his sleep* No, Mama, dont wanna... *fidgeted a little in his sleep*

Ozzy blinked and giggled, shaking his head at him and nudging him gently. "Thrax... wake up..." he mumbled, leaning over him slightly.

Thrax: Mmmh... *slowly stirred* Baby? W...Wht time is it...? *stretched himself n yawned*

Ozzy smiled down at him. "Dinner time..." he told him, slowly getting up and moving to his dirty suit, sighing softly and just pulling the pants and shirt on.

Thrax: *got off the bed, then came to Oz* No, dont wear tht, its dirty. Here, wear this. This is the clothes I bought for u last time, remember? *handed him the clothes tht looked like a replica of his own tht he bought bk in Bob*

Ozzy blinked and looked back at him. "Where did you get them from?" he mumbled, though took the clothes and pulled them on.

Thrax: Ur not the only one who carries things ard. I just dont show it under my own trenchcoat *smirked*

Ozzy blinked and huffed, sticking his tongue out before he smoothed down his clothes. "There..."

Thrax: Mmm, u look nice as always, baby *nuzzled against his neck*

Ozzy flushed and shook his head, pushing him away before he headed out. "come on..."

Thrax: *chuckles as he followed beside Oz, knocking on the others' doors telling them dinner was ready*

*the twins came out almost immediately, since they were hungry n just managed to get Amber to sleep*

Ozzy headed downstairs once they were all together, Edison managing to get Klepta out of bed to flow them.

Klepta: *yawned as he followed behind him*

*the triplets were dwnstairs first n saw Oz n happily bounded towards him*

Triplets: Mista Fethawoff~!! *huggled him*

Ozzy gasped before he stumbled back, laughing and wrapping his arms around them, grinning. "Hey kids..." he said, ruffling there hair. "You okay, Nikkita?" he asked, worried after yesterday, earning a nod from the little girl.

Jaz: *chuckles as she appeared* I swear they cant get enough of talking abt u. Its gonna be a little lonely for them wen ur gone

*the triplets looked ard at the new company interestedly, eyeing at them*

Ozzy laughed and grinned, sighing softly. "I really am going miss you guys, too~ It was really fun, you remind me of an old friend of mine..." he mumbled.

Edison blinked and glanced at the children staring and frowned, huffing at them.

*the triplets doesnt seem fazed at Edison's grumpiness, bt they do like the twins as well, seeing someone who looked identical to each other was an interesting sight, in which the twins reveled in it*

Jaz: Oh? Do I? Who is it? *led them to the dining room*

Ozzy blinked and sighed softly. "His name was... Drix... he was like... my best friend..."

Jaz: Oh, wen was the last time u saw him? *led everyone to their seats at the table n made the kids sit dwn properly*

Ozzy sighed and shook his head. "I think... nearly a year now..." he mumbled as he moved to sit down.

Thrax: *patted Oz's knees comfortingly under the table*

Jaz: Sorry to hear tht. I hope ur friend's alright, wherevr he is *sees Hank come in* Ah, the master of the house has arrived

Ozzy jumped in surprise, looking to Thrax and flushed some, smiling like. "Me too..." he mumbled before looking up as Hank came and sat at the head of the table.

*the food soon came in n the rest of the dinner was spent introducing their real selves, n Jaz n Hank seemed to be fascinated to hear wht was going on in the lives of this uncanny family*

Ozzy sighed, sipping at his water that he had asked for while he ate, looking around the table as the virus' bragged about their adventures.

Jaz: *noticed Oz being quiet while the viruses bragged n leaned towards him* Something on ur mind there, Kia, or should I call u Oz? *chuckles*

Ozzy blinked and looked up, blushing a little and rubbing the back of his neck. "Heh... sorry about that..." he mumbled, grinning a little at her. "Just thinking... all we've been through..."

Jaz: U must hv it hard, hanging ard viruses for almost a yr

*the triplets were done eating n were now playing with Nessie n Chico under the table, giggling happily*

Ozzy blinked and chuckled, shaking his head. "It's not so bad... I had Nessie with me..." He mumbled and laughed, toying with the bandana that was still around his neck, a little worn, the the craftsmanship and embroidery was still brilliant. "Though, would be nice to get My own space sometimes."

Jaz: *smiled* I'm sure once u all settled dwn nicely at one spot instead of running ard all the time, u'll get tht chance, Oz. I can see ur mate is pretty fetching there. *gestured at Thrax who was laughing at one of Hank's jokes* He'd make a vry good father

Ozzy blinked in surprise before his face flared up, his hand slapping on the front of his own face. "No, no way... I already told him he's not doing that to me..." he grumbled, giving that cute pout of his. "My..." he looked over the group. "... Family are babies enough..."

Jaz: *giggled* Judging by ur reaction, I think he is going to do tht to u one way or another. I think ur family is pretty interesting. Hey, my Hank is baby enough as it is n I put up wiht him for 7 yrs. If tht's not love, I dunno wht is *laughs* I'm sure u n ur mate will get there in my shoes

Ozzy blushed and grumbled, nudging her lightly. "Well... he keeps threatening..." he mumbled, eating more of his food as he soon finished, rubbing his stomach. "Hm... maybe, but damn he's insistant on things..."

Jaz: So can Hank. Did u knw he threatened to kill himself wen I told him I didnt want the triplets n told him I wanted to abort them? Heh, talk abt persuasive *chuckles* Bt I'm glad I didnt do it. They're my little angels. I cant imagine life wihtout them now

Ozzy bit his lip and nodded. "They are little cuties... but I don't think I'm ready..." he mumbled and sighed, stretching a little, looking to the time. I can't believe we're carrying on our way tomorrow..."

Jaz: Yeah, I knw. Bt knw this: we may hv known each other for just two days, bt to me, aftr wht u hv done for my little girl, u r like a friend tht I hv known for an eternity *puts her hand on his* U should think tht way too *smiled gently at him*

Ozzy blinked and looked over to her, smiling back before moving to hold her hand in his. "Hopefully one day... we will meet again..."

Jaz: *smiled* I hope so
