There was a perfectly good reason that he was standing outside uncovered save for a pair of pants. He was practicing. It had been a long time since he had even dared to manipulate raw sunlight, since he even considered trying. But the situation had changed

Jamie's jaw was clenched to the point of creaking, banging things around in their small kitchen in effort to distract himself from what Kirin was doing outside. At least long enough until he decided he really didn't mind another argument and dragged the other man back inside by means of sheer manpower.

They'd been so damn careful. Ever since...Kirin had stayed away from sunlight, as much as he was able, they'd taken precautions, measures to counteract the horrible possibility they'd be awakened to.

And now he was out there just throwing it away. Jamie slammed a stack of dishes into the sink, cracking one of the plates.

Kirin could have stayed outdoors longer, but the sounds Jamie was making from inside their kitchen proved to be far more distracting.

He stepped inside and leaned against the door. Despite standing outside in direct sunlight for more than an hour, his skin looked as white and pale as it was before.

"So much for trying for a tan," Kirin tried to joke as he walked into the kitchen and hugged the man from behind. "Still mad?"

"Still being stupid?" Jamie retorted under his breath, fingers curled around the edge of the countertop, glowering into the sink.

Letting out a sigh, he turned in Kirin's arms, eyes roving over unblemished skin, as if he could tell the damage done merely by sight. He knew better.

"You know me, I'm very smart," Kirin sighed and gave the glowering man a quick hug before he stepped back.

"I hate this as much as you do, you know that."

Jamie let out a disgusted sigh. "This isn't...we did what we were supposed to. We fixed it. And it still..."

He shook his head, the words tasting childish in his mouth, but keenly felt.

"It's not fair."
