Tough Little Boys Alternate Kevin/Rick

"You... Vash or whatever his name is... you're just scared of me."

Angel's face fell, he just looked heart broken.
"D-Don't let Vash get to you....P-Please...."
Vash always fucked everything up for him.

"I... but he made sense...why would you want my baby...?"

Angel stood, sitting on Gabriel's lap and leaning down to press their foreheads together.
"Because I love you."

"Why do you love me?" He asked.

Angel paused, his eyes unreadable.
"B-Because whenever im hurt by other people I call for you....Because whenever you kiss me my belly flips....When you look at me with those big eyes I get butterflies...Because whenever you hurt me....I don't feel like its your fault...I keep on loving you....I dont wanna leave you..."
He usually thought it was his fault and he had done something to deserve it or Gabriel needs it or whatever.

"Angel... please dont' lie to me about this... you... really want my baby?"

"If I didn't want I wouldnt have it. Not because im scared, if I didnt want it I wouldn't have even told you it was possible." He frowned deeply at Gabriel.

".... okay." He nodded slowly with a sigh.

Angel nodded, the heart break in his eyes bright as he got off of Gabriel and went to try and get him something to sooth him.
No I love you too?
No anything...
never was.

Gabriel had just been panicking... he'd almost been in tears for the first time in ages... He was worried, not thinking. He stood and found Angel, kissing the top of his head.
"i love you too..."

And that was all it took to have Angel in his arms, dropping kisses all over his face while crying tears of Joy.
Gabriel would never understand what it meant to Angel when Gabriel said that.

Gabriel blinked at him and hugged him back.
"i do..."

Angel sniffled quietly, hugging him tight.
"Good...."
That made all the abuse and rape worth it.

"I... does Vash do that a lot?" He asked.

Angel blinked, finally getting what had happened.
"Only times when Im vulnerable enough to black out. When I black out any of them can get control....But he is the main one, him and trever.....they are the scary ones..."

Gabriel nodded.
"I.. really don't like him." He sighed.

"Well me either....He is never quiet...Always messing things up for me." Angel frowned. "Im sorry you had to meet him.."

"It's alright. He's... a part of you I guess. I should love him too... even though he's an ass."

"He us the ass, Trever is psychotic, and the rest are okay, two kinda nice, the other a pessimist." Angel thought that was so sweet....

"Alright. Guess I got some new people to love..." He nodded.

"Nah, they don't deserve your love. Its all mine." He snuggled Gabriel, "Even when you hit me its mine, mine mine."

"It is." He nodded. He'd never loved anyone this much...

Angel pulled back and grinned at him.
"You remember that. Its mine....Not theirs, not Zac's, not Kyndal's, MINE."

Gabriel smiled. He'd never seen Angel act like that before and he liked it...
"Alright its all yours now."
