The pirate needed to let Jake know that they might not be heading out with the group. And really they probably should talk about the relationship that was starting to form. It was a waste of tipme to continue if they were only going to split up, even though Veran worried that it was too early they needed to have this conversation. Part of him was worried but the other part was excited. He was pretty sure that Jake would choose to stay with them. It was exciting, but also a little terrifying. He hadn't let anyone get this close to him in a long time.

Jake followed Veran outside and could notice he was a little nervous, which was cute. Then he asked how they would start this. Jake scratched the back of his head and smiled. “Well I hope I am right, when I say there is defiantly something going on between us, otherwise I just made a fool out of myself.” Jake said with a smile as he stood a little closer to Veran. Jake was relief he finally said it out loud, it was long since he felt this for someone and he was happy that he was still able to feel love. But he also knew that Veran probably wanted to split up and that that was probably the partly a reason he wanted to talk. He wouldn’t ask about it, but if Veran would ask what he was going to do, then Jake kind off knew he had conquered a spot in his closed off heart, which was exactly what he wanted.
Veran knew that he needed to be open right now. If they decided to leave together and things didn't work out it could be a problem and he couldn't take risks with his son and on top of that he wouldn't want Jake to choose to come with him and then regret it. He cared for this man and that would remain true whether they became something or not. If he was honest there was definitely something between them already.
"Yer not wrong Jake. I care about you already and that scares me."
He almost laughed at himself when he realized that he was considering asking Jake to possibly come with him over the others and Jake didn't even know his real name. He thought back to his life and all of the things that he had been through that Jake knew nothing about.
"If your coming with me, which I get the feeling your considering then a I suppose you should probably know my real name. It's Sam. Sam Brosnan. And one of these times we ought to actually talk about our pasts. I feel like I know you extremely well but at the same time we know next to nothing about each other from before all of this."

Jake couldn’t help but smile as Veran told him that he indeed cared for him, but that it scared him too. “You don’t have to be scared, it might not be easy after everything you and Dale have been through, but I can only give you my word that I’m different.” Jake said softly, making sure his face was serious again.
Then Veran got serious and said if Jake would go with him, then at least he had to know his real name and he also asked to talk about their past when they had time for it. “Well nice to meet you Sam.” Jake said with a smile. “I want to thank you already to tell your real name, it’s good to know you want to build up our relationship.” He added in a soft tone. “And yeah talking with you sounds great, even though it is about our pasts.” Jake said with a smile.
“And yes I have to admit that I was and still am considering to follow you, when I’m around you I feel so much better and inside I feel something that I haven’t felt in a while, that means something.” Jake said as he looked in Veran/Sam his eyes. “I know it’s going to be though, because I will miss Dannie and the others, even though I don’t know them for so long either, but I have to admit that I would feel worse if I had to leave you.” He added. Then he walked a little closer to the pirate. “So to answer your question I would follow you.” Then he raised his hand and placed his on Veran his chest on the spot where his heart was. “I would follow you in the hope I could get a spot inside there.” He said softly as he once more looked in his eyes. Jake was a bit scared and hoped Veran wouldn’t mind him placing his hand there, but he had to try something, he was ok with going slow, but he just wanted to make sure that Veran knew what he felt for him.
"I want to say that you would be able to but I am not entirely sure. If everything from before didn't scare me away from people then what I've been through after just might. I can't promise anything. I like you, and I want you to be part of my future but I can't make any promises."
He looked at Jake and a wane smile crossed his lips. If anyone was going to get close to him it would be him. He was persistent, but it was in a quite and non assertive way that made him much more comfortable around him then he had ever been around anyone else.
"Though if anyone is going to tear my walls down it will be you. The way you ate with me, and with Dale. You are special."

Jake smiled as Veran spoke, he was very fragile, because of all the things he had been through, but he said there was a chance, that was enough for Jake. He was always happy around Veran and Jake was sure he would be able to remind Veran of all the good things that happen in a relationship and make him forget about all the bad stuff. “Well it’s positive that you want to try.” Jake said with a little smile.
Veran was smiling too which caused for Jake to smile even bigger. Then Veran told him that if anyone was going to break his walls it was him, he also said that he liked how he was towards Dale and that he was special. “Thank you.” Jake said with a shy smile. “You and Dale are just a happy little family where I want to be a part of.” He said in a more serious tone. “And I will make sure I try everything to break down that hard wall, I want you to feel the good things about a relationship again, so you can forget about the bad ones.” He added. “And I’ll do my best but I’m happy you want to give us a chance and it won’t be easy, but like I said I’ll try everything to take that wall down.” He said with a smile. Jake just wanted to hug Veran now, but he wasn’t sure how he react so he waited a bit and gave him time to respond to his words.
An impulse took over Veran at Jake's words and he fought with it for only a second. He closed the gap between them and pulled Jake into him, one arm resting on his back. He leaned in, a smile on his face, and kissed the beautiful, sweet man. He hoped that he wasn't pushing too hard but he wanted this in the moment. Wanted to show Jake that this was by no means one sided.
He broke the kiss and took a small step back. His cheeks were on fire and he was certain that he was blushing.
"Couldn't have ye thinking this was all one sided now could I?"

Jake was surprised as Veran hugged him, but it felt so damn good. But then all of the sudden, Veran leaned in closer and then Jake felt Veran his soft lips on his. It made his heart skip a beat, followed by a rush of adrenaline and happiness, all at once. When Veran ended the kiss Jake felt so good, the love in his heart only grew bigger by the great tender kiss.
Jake smiled and couldn’t hide how happy he was and he noticed the blush on Veran his face. “No need to blush, it felt great.” Jake said as he softly stroked Veran his cheek with the back if his hand. Then Veran talked again and Jake smiled once more. “No indeed, this was exactly the good way to respond to my words.” He said as he winked nad lowered his arm again. “We should do that more often.” He added with a smile.
Just seconds later he placed his other hand on Veran his face. “What about now?” he asked with a smile. Then he stepped closer, placed his free hand on Veran his back. Shortly after he leaned in closer and kissed him again, this time tender but with just a pinch of passion.
Veran could melt into that kiss but he needed to keep his head straight. They were outside and exposed and if they got themselves too distracted something could go wrong. A couple of seconds wouldn't hurt though, he thought to himself as he kissed Jake back. Jake was a pretty amazing kisser too. After a little time had passed he pulled away and rested his hand on the small of Jake's back.
"Yer a mighty fine kisser Jake. Has anyone ever told ye so?"
He smiled and kissed Jake on the cheek before separating a little and looking around. They always had to be aware of their surrounding out here.
"I'm hoping that Dale wants to try and stick with these people. They seem like the good sort for the most part and we both need the socialization. It's been far too long since either of us have had people in their lives that we could count on."

Kissing Veran was sort of heaven on earth for Jake and he was happy that Veran returned the kiss. After some tile Veran stopped the kiss and stepped back a little. Then he complimented Jake on his kissing skills. Jake blushed a bit, which wasn’t like him, normally he would never blush. “Well thanks you, I never heard that one, but it is very nice to hear.” He said as with a smile. “You have some skills too though.” He said followed by a wink. “When you kiss me, it feels like my heart can breathe again.” He added.
Then he felt a kiss on his cheek from Veran. “You are such a sweetheart.” He said as he ran his fingers through Veran his short hair. After that Jake listened how Veran explained that he hoped that Dale would decide to stick with the group. “Well they are good people, I don’t know them for that long, but I like all of them.” Jake said with a little smile. “But like I said earlier I would follow the both of you anywhere, even though it would hurt a bit to leave them, I already can’t imagine a world or well apocalypse without you.” He added. Then he smiled again and looked back at the door. He was glad the rest stayed inside he enjoyed the private moment with Veran.
“I’m trying my best with Dale too, doing it slow and easy, cause I understand how hard it is for the both of you.” He said as he looked in Veran his eyes. “And I just wish I would have met you both sooner, that way you didn’t have to go through all of that shit.” He added. “But at least now I can try to fix you and Dale.” He said as he opened his arms asking for another hug of the sweet pirate.
"Well thank you. Can't say I've ever been told I make someone's heart breath but it is probably the sweetest thing that I have ever heard."
He smiled. Soon they would have to be on the move again but he was enjoying this time with Jake. He couldn't wait till they actually had a fair amount of time to spend alone together without being rushed by having to move on to the next thing. Both of the times that they had been able to spend some time just the two of them had been extremely short.
"You are too sweet to me Jake. I am sure that Dale will see who you are. It just takes time. We are both a little closed off. Thank you for being so patient with us."

“Well you are a sweet guy, so you deserve sweet words.” Jake said with a wink. He also noticed how Veran smiled at him and it made him feel warm inside. The idea to have a private conversation was great .
Not seconds later Veran spoke once more, telling Jake how thankful he was for being patient. “There is no such thing as being too sweet especially when it is towards you.” He answered with a warm smile. “And like you said I’m sure Dale and I will get along just fine.” He added. Then Jake once more stepped closer and softly placed his hand on Veran his shoulder. “It’s understandable that you both are closed off, after all the things that have happened and you don’t have to thank me for being patient, if time is all I need to earn a spot in your cozy warm family, then take all the time you want.” He said as he looked in his eyes.
Then he smiled. “Though I have to admit that kiss felt good.” Jake said with a smile while slightly blushing.
Veran watched Jake as he spoke. He had been waiting for the other shoe to drop with Jake but it didn't look like it would. The kiss had been the pirates way of telling himself that he needed to learn to trust people, at least a little. He couldn't just exist anymore. He needed to show his son that it was OK to let himself come to depend on others. If he didn't they would never make it out here, or if they did it would be a miserable existence, traveling from place to place, with nowhere to call home. It got tiring after a while. They had both done more then enough of that to last them a lifetime.
"For the first time in a long time I believe you when you say things like that. It feels good to trust someone, especially with how crazy the world has gotten."

Jake smiled as Veran replied. The sweet sexy pirate told him he believed Jake and also that he was glad he could finally trust someone.
“Well it means a lot that you say that, now I feel like I finally broke through that stone hard wall that protected your feelings.” Jake as he used the back of his hand to slowly rub Veran his cheek. “And now it’s just a matter of time before I can fully break the wall.” He said with a wink.
Then he lowered his hand again and smiled. “But for real, I’m glad that you trust me and you won’t regret it.” Jake said. “Now we can try to build a normal family and try to be happy in this crazy world.” He added. “I hope you feel the same way.” He asked softly as he looked in Veran his eyes. “Oh btw another reason that proves you are a pirate and I know it’s a classic, but I could drown in your eyes.” Jake said in a playful tone with a smile.
"Might be that I could trade compliments with ya all day me favorite lubber, but sadly I think we ought ta get back to the others. Surely they have made some decisions by now that we ought to find out about."
Veran kissed Jake on the cheek again. He truly did wish that he could stay here a little longer but life on the road being what it was meant that they had to always keep moving. Once they got to someplace safe and secured it he would have to drag Jake out for a walk.
"Once we get to this place in Georgia I think that we are going to have to find a way to have a date."
Post by Jake Porter on May 18, 2015 12:43:43 GMT -5
Jake sighed as Veran said they had to get back. “Giving compliments all day sounds very good, but you are right.” He said a bit sad, but had to smile as he felt Veran his lips on his own cheek. As Veran leaned in to kiss him on the cheek he pulled him in a hug, he needed that. Then he let go of Veran and smiled.
After that Veran said when they reached Georgia, they had to get on a date. “That would be awesome, it’s been ages since I had someone so sweet to date with.” He said with a smile. “Looking foreward to it.” He added.
Then Jake sighed once more. “Well guess we have to go, Deary.” He said with a smile. “Well sexy guys first.” Jake said teasingly as he motioned for Veran to go inside.
