Tristan’s arrival and subsequent apology brought a new wave of tears to Saras. He had been afraid when he saw Tristan approaching quietly, slowly… looking intently at his fragile body hugged close and protectively by Marz. Saras had been drawing comfort from the larger boy, but fear had welled up in him when he saw the dragon and he remembered the threats from the incident in the kitchen. The tears came from the near-apology, however. He could see the emotion in the dragon’s eyes. There was such devotion and love (he assumed it was love, because he did not know the emotion) in Tristan’s face, that the tears began again, although he knew Marz didn’t like them. He’d been holding them back, but now he was crying, and for completely different reasons. He smiled and wiped his eyes , knowing he probably looked ridiculous, but the genie had always been emotional and brought to tears quickly.

It’s just that…I’m not…used to loving another person so much…and I guess always having to worry about losing him. Your suggestion about Jeremy getting a chance with Marz, well it just…I mean, it kind of really… It really hurt me,”

Saras was touched, deep inside, and he sniffled, completely forgetting that Marz thought he was cuter when he smiled, and he let the tears run down his cheeks. It wouldn’t have mattered he realized, seeing himself cry, since Marz had already picked himself up off the floor to leave Tristan and Saras in the hallway, apparently not wanting to see any interaction between his lover and the genie. Either that, or he was giving them the space and privacy they needed to resolve their issue.

“I’m so so sorry!!!” Saras said, between sniffles and wiping tears with the back of his hand. His voice trembled and was half choked with an attempt to breath.

“Iwastryingtomake Jeremyhappy, butIdidn’tthinkthatforyou, losing Marz wouldbelikehaving an unwanted masterforyou.” Saras’ words ran together, from the speed of his talking, as he tried to condense all of his thoughts into one perfect word of apology and explanation. The desire to gain Tristan’s forgiveness desperate in his words. He hesitated, seeing Tristan frown, trying to make out his rambled words. He scrubbed the tears away, sure his eyes were puffy and red, and he smiled.

“I was wrong.” he said, trying again. Once he was sure his words were coming out, he scrambled up to his feet. “Marz is for you, like a Master… I’m sorry I didn’t understand how it was. I just wanted Jeremy to be happy, like you and Marz make each other happy.” he said.

Saras clasped his hands behind him and looked at his feet. “I’m not so good at figuring humans out… I just… I get upset easily. You people are so different from mine. It’s confusing… sometimes I don’t understand the right emotion at the right time.” he said. “So. I’m sorry… All I wanted was for everyone to be happy.”
