Jojo covered his mouth and stood aghast in the doorway, Enezel dragging his paw down his face and sighing, "well Unc, this is my friend Joji, he's not one for the gory stuff."  His uncle tugged at his thin beard and shrugged, "Coulda been worse, kid coulda buckled and ran." Enezel laughed lightly and grabbed Joj0's arm, tugging him along. "You kids be good, If something bad happens, my crippled A&& isnt gonna head up stairs to save you."
Jojo sat awkwardly on the edge of Enezel's bed while he went into his bathroom to change. "You need to loosen up Joji, you looked like a figurine back there." "Hah, yeah, I just, I diddnt expect that." Enezel came back out in only his skinny jeans, a clean shirt gripped in his left paw. Jojo blushed and looked away, putting away Enezel shirtless for future reference. "He got hurt in 'Nam, something called Tet, anyways cost him a leg." He tugged on his shirt and went over to the laptop sitting on top of a dresser, brushing aside the soda cans and chip bags that littered the top. "Ive never seen your parents."  "Yeah, my Dads' in Europe and my mom works at some air base in Los Angeles, my parents let me stay here because we have alot of relatives." Jojo removed his sweater and bag and laid his head on the large pillow at the foot of the bed, keeping just his feet on the opposite edge. Enezel stood from his chair and went to the bed, going over Jojo to lay on the other side, folding his hands on his stomache. Jojo shifted uncomfortably in place, feeling warmer with Enezel's added heat but a bit complacent with him there. Enezel rolled on his side and looked at Jojo, waiting till he turned his head in embarassment. "Ive only known you for about a year Joji, and whenever the group wants to meet up somewhere after school, you always find a way out of it." "I'm just usually busy." "But you jumped at the chance to come with me today, I havent even seen you call your parents to tell them where you are." Jojo bit his lip and turned the other way, a rising urge to get up and sit somewhere else overcoming him, but he still just lay there, waiting in silence. "Are you gay?" Jojo felt his stomach clench, his heart pounding up into his throat, he tugged his legs up closer to him, almost a fetal position. He diddnt know himself. He had always had odd feelings for his friends, the boy ones anyways, and he never really knew how to approach it. How would he answer, should he even answer? What would Enezel do, would he become violent, be understanding, what?
Enezel slid in the bed and pushed Jojo's shoulder down into the bed, forcing him to lay out on his back, and then moved on top of him, sitting on his lap and putting his hands on either side of his head. Jojo gulped and searched for something to say, a strange feeling taking him over. Enezel leaned in and was nose to nose, "Joji, I asked, are you gay?" Jojo couldnt answer, he just froze and looked back at him, his mouth moving but not forming any words. Enezel looked into his eyes and seemed to be searching for the answer he wanted, then, he relaxed, the wide smile that always but Jojo at ease coming to his face, "I always wondered about you Joji; always looking offended or jealous when some girl walks up to me and asks me for my number or a date, always acting like an overbearing sister whenever I acted stupid in school, always watching me run during PE." Jojo blushed at the last one and turned his head, Enezel turning his chin with his paw, "I still want an answer Joji." Jojo warmed and loosened, rising up and wrapping his arms around Enezel, burying his face in his chest and crying softly, Enezel hugging him back just as tightly. Jojo felt Enezel kiss the top of his head, a soft whisper sending him into another bout of sobbing, "I always wondered Joji, and I guess you always did too."

Enezel pulled Jojo into his lap, the cramped photo-booth not allowing for much room. Jojo and Enezel had started an odd courtship since the incident at Enezel's house. Jojo was more sociable now and hung with the group more often, even going to the concert they had all pitched in for in San Diego.  Enezel picked up Jojo's ears and stuck out his tongue, the pair making more funny faces for every quick flash. Carlos whistled loudly outside while he sat on a rickety child's ride near the food court of the mall, the rest of the group waiting on Enezel and Jojo. Scyla shouted into the booth, "You guys gonna be done making out any time soon?" Enezel stuck out his response, catching the attention of a shocked passing family. Scyler slapped his hand and swatted Scyla on the arm, "stop causing S*&#"
"Well if they diddnt suck up the precious few minutes we have before the movie starts, then maybe I'd be in a better mood." The odd husky that had joined them a few weeks ago was singing some misfits song to himself, continually looking over his shoulder like he was going to be assaulted. "Hey, ERIC!" Eric jumped at the call and raced over, Carlos laughing, "Calm down man, you look nervous." He scratched his right ear and laughed nervously, "An ex of mine works at one of the stores....I dont want to run into them."
Enezel came out of the booth holding Jojo's hand, even more stares being attracted. Carlos spat out the toothpick he had taken from a free sample and walked over, rubbing his hands together, "So, we ready to see the most complicated conspiracy movie in cinema history besides the Manchurian Candidate?" The others all raised their fists in a cry and raced towards the theatre, other shoppers spooked and curling back from them. The front of the food court entrance was plastered with advertisement for the movie, all with the Stone-faced Hugh Jackman looking outwards at nothing, a famous bandana wrapped around his forehead. Metal Gear Solid was the years first and seemingly only video game adaption film, and so far it had gotten nothing but great reviews from both legal showings and hacker leaks, the troll community online being shut up for the first time in a while. Enezel brought up the group's money and went up to the counter, still holding a slightly shy Jojo's hand, "6 for MGS please." The teller looked it up and shook his head, "Sorry, you have to be 21 to purchase tickets for your group."
"Its rated R though, I'm 18."
"Its law kid."
A young Human with enough metal on his face to make silverwear leaned in and smiled widely, his Liberty spikes bending like over-burdened trees, "Hey Kids, lost track of you all." He searched the crowd and tugged Eric close to him, walking up to the counter and placing a hand on Enezel's shoulder, "Ah sir, sorry I'm this young man's cousin, I was supposed to get in line with 'em but I got lost, I give them full permission." The teller looked them all over, "Your...related to an Anthro?"
"Come on man, its the millenia, dont tell me you dont know people who cross."
The teller shook his head and rung it up, "Are you included?"
"Oh yeah, me and my date."
A Husky with dirty pink coloring and dread-locks strolled up, winking at Eric, "Hey Walkie-talkie."  Eric rolled his eyes and took a ticket from the teller, going to the snack counter with Scyla and Scyler, Carlos staying with Enezel and Jojo. The man gave money for the additonal two tickets and ruffled Jojo's hair, laughing, going over to the snack counter as well. Enezel looked to the female husky, her head was shaking in dissappointment. "You know Eric?"
"My real cousin, he doesnt like me doing favors for him, not even Jared, my boyfriend and his Idol." Enezel looked over and saw Eric hugging the older Human, the pair laughing and exchanging jabs to the shoulder. Enezel, not one for subtlty, asked, "He not like you?"
"Yeah."
"because of the Human BF?"
"Nah, he loves Jared, so does his family, theyre all accepting."
"Then what is it?"
"When he was little I took care of him alot, and we got close, But about 5 years ago he got in a bad fight with his dad and he tried to find somewhere else to stay, anywhere."
"He went to you?" She nodded and rubbed at her arm. Jojo took notice and tugged at his hand, nodding to the others who were already heading to the theatre following Jared.
"Well, what happened?"
"I said no, that he needed to act mature and face whatever was troubling him, instead of trying to make it just fade away by distancing himself."
"He still hold it against you?"
"yeah, thats why he's stubborn about everything, kind of like an odd impulse to not want to ask anyone for help, just face it.....like big cousin Marlaina told him."
Jojo tugged again at Enezel's hand, and he finally moved with them, Marlaina following and catching up to Jared at the door to their screen.
Jared Pecked Marlaina on the cheek and took her hand, "Walkie-talkie still acting up?" Marlaina nodded and kept walking with him, Enezel and Jojo moving away to sit with the others towards the top of the seats. Eric was nibbling on a sour punch straw in silence, Carlos sneakily slipping a few out of the bag. Enezel glanced over at him and noticed that he was looking down at Marlaina in the front row, an almost sad look entering his features. Jojo squeezed his hand and leaned into him when he lifted his arm, lifting the cup-holder to allow Jojo to be in his arms. "Enie......Leave it alone."
Enezel sat in silence, watching the movie with Jojo continually jumping in fright and excitement from the movie. the whole time he would glance at Eric, who would occasionally still glance down at Marlaina, the same look taking him over.

Awe, sounds like Eric wants to talk, but can't think of anything and is still kinda ticked. That stinks.
