A Supernatural Hunt

"I don't?" Marco asked, looking up at him. He knew he didn't, but the demon was hoping to distract Mason to avoid annoying him.

Having been asleep, Joseph opened his eyes to see Leo checking on his wound. "...how's it doing?" He asked sleepily.

"No you don't." Promised Mason, he could tell Marco was nervous.

"Looks like it is really healing up nicely." Leo answered with a small smile.

Marco nodded and let out a breath before slowly leaning back against Mason.

"Oh...that's good..." Joseph replied with a yawn.

Mason watched him, wondering why he seemed so scared of him sometimes.

"Let me clean it up again." Leo said, "Then you can sleep some more."

After a moment, Marco slowly lifted his arms and hugged Mason back, trying his best to ignore his conflicting emotions.

Joseph slowly nodded. "Right..."

Mason smiled softly, trying to show he wouldn't hurt him and having a feeling he was failing.

"I just want to make sure it heals..." Leo said softly.

Still tired, Marco slowly let himself relax and leaned against Mason, tightening his arms around him to keep himself standing, though it could have easily been mistaken for him wanting to be closer.

"I'm sure it will..." Joseph said with a yawn.

Mason made sure he held onto him, seeing he was tired.

Leo carefully cleaned the wound, looking worried as he did.

"Sorry..." Marco muttered again, leaning his head on Mason.

"Something wrong?" Joseph asked him.

"You always say sorry." Mason said softly, rubbing his back.

"No, its just hard to look at... I was so worried about you."

"Normally I don't at all..." Marco responded with a huff.

Joseph slowly nodded. "I'm fine now though."

Mason chuckled softly when he huffed, smiling at him.

Leo nodded, "Thank goodness you are."

"What?" Marco asked, frowning slightly. "What's funny?"

"Mm. Always good." Joseph agreed.

"You can be so adorable." Mason answered.

Leo smiled softly, "It's almost healed."

Marco made an irritated sound and looked away, pouting. "No."

"You think so?" Joseph asked.

Mason had to hold in a chuckle, not wanting to upset him more, but he found the whole thing adorable.

Leo nodded, "The Angel and Fae really knew what they were doing."

Marco let out a sigh and leaned his head back on Mason's shoulder, not bothering to try and argue with him over it.

"They hadn't healed my kind before though..."

Mason gently rubbed his back, closing his eyes for a second.

Leo nodded. "True, but it's not a bad job."

The demon smiled and relaxed against Mason, wrapping his arms tight around Mason's waist.

"Well that's good." Joseph smiled.

Mason smiled softly, letting the demon relax against him.

Leo smiled and moved to sit next to him.

Morgan frowned as he sat reading.

"...you weren't busy, were you?" Marco asked after a moment.

Joseph smiled and reached an arm out to hug him.

Carmen sighed as she came into the room, having been in a meeting with her advisors.

"Not really, just trying to collect my thoughts." Mason answered.

Leo smiled and hugged him tightly.

"What did they say?" Morgan asked quietly.

"About what?"

"Love you." Joseph said quietly.

Carmen tiredly sat down beside him. "Nothing new really," she said. "I didn't mention Dominic to them yet..."

"About our next steps."

"Love you too." Leo answered back.

"So they still want Dante to marry..." Morgan sighed.

"What are they?" Marco asked.

Joseph smiled and kissed his head.

"They still don't see another way either." Carmen frowned.
