Re: DT Serum, Primary Testing In Progress
Tramp sat on the bed huddled in the corner by the wall. He gripped his head, rocking back and forth. "No... no.... NO!"

Ashton noticed and came over, gently pulling Tramp into his embrace. "It's okay." He said softly. "I'm here, and I got you. I won't let anything happen to you. You're safe here."

Tramp resisted at first, but something in Ashton's voice got through to him. He slumped against Ashton, clinging to him, sobbing hysterically. "Please make it stop. I don't want to! I'm sorry I was bad. I promise, I'll be good! I promise."

Re: DT Serum, Primary Testing In Progress
Ashton just kept murmuring to Tramp about how everything was fine, and that he wouldn't let anything happen to him.

Re: DT Serum, Primary Testing In Progress
Tramp settled slowly, still clinging and sniffling. "Sorry," he whimpered. "I didn't mean to wake you."

"It's fine." Ashton assured him. "You actually woke me from a nightmare. Otherwise, I probably would have been the one waking you with MY screaming."

"What do you dream of?" Tramp mumbled, hugging Ashton.

"I'd.... rather not talk about it." Ashton murmured. "At least not yet. There's only one person I've talked a little to about it, and it's still hard."

Tramp jerked his head in a nod. "Okay. I understand."

Ashton hesitated a moment before he spoke again. "Tramp.... If it means anything, I'll do my absolute best to make sure you're safe here. No one will hurt you under my watch."

Tramp said nothing at first. Slowly, he drew away, sitting on the bed and studying Ashton soberly. "You know, I am almost inclined to believe you," he admitted.

Ashton furrowed his brow, feeling a little hurt. "Why almost?" He asked. He was a man of his word! Or at least, he tried to be.

"I've heard that promise a lot," Tramp shrugged. "No one has ever followed through. The only one who came close... She and I had a falling out."

Re: DT Serum, Primary Testing In Progress
Ashton frowned. "I didn't think you needed to know this now, but I almost don't care now. You know what I was doing earlier today? While Layla stayed with you? I found the guys who beat you up and gave them the eye-for-an-eye justice for hurting you, and did some more to their leader for insulting you. I don't know how that equates in your book, but in the streets life I knew, that meant a damn lot for what you thought of a person." Ashton stood. "You should try and sleep some more. It'll help you recover. I'm going for a walk."

Re: DT Serum, Primary Testing In Progress
Tramp could only gape at Ashton. He did that... for him?? But... "Why?" he called softly. "Why would you do that for me? I'm nobody. At best, we're friends, but I've never done anything for you. Not really. Why would you risk yourself for me that way?"

Re: DT Serum, Primary Testing In Progress
Ashton paused, his back to Tramp. He hesitated, not sure if he should admit his feelings for Tramp or not. Ashton wound up chickening out. "I'll tell you later." He muttered before he continued on his way without another word.

Tramp ducked his head. He called Bobo up onto the bed with him and huddled miserably with the puppy, making himself as small as he could. He felt guilty. He must have said something wrong, but all he had done was tell the truth. He finally fell asleep clinging to his puppy.

Ashton didn't go far, just around the block several times before he went into the bathroom and splashed icy cold water on his face. Why? Tramp had asked. Why? Because Ashton knew he was falling for Tramp, and falling hard. And yet, it seemed more and more that Tramp didn't return such feelings, or even wanted to.

Tramp was fast asleep by the time Ashton returned. He clung to his puppy, and the dried tear tracks were still visible on his face.

Ashton sighed a little when he noticed and sank back into his chair, feeling even worse now. He tried to fall back asleep that night, but it evaded him.

Re: DT Serum, Primary Testing In Progress
Tramp woke early the next morning, and it was obvious what he wanted from the first second he opened his eyes. He stared at Ashton, feverish, pale, and sweating.

Re: DT Serum, Primary Testing In Progress
Ashton was staring at the floor, zoned out, and his head in his hands. He looked and felt... broken. Torn.

Re: DT Serum, Primary Testing In Progress
Tramp swallowed hard. His rabid desire warred with his concern. He reached out a shaking hand and touched Ashton's knee. "Ashy? Ashy, I'm sorry if I said something wrong," he managed to say tremulously. Drugs! A hit, a high, a puff, a shot, a pilll.... No! Ashton had been nice to him so far. Focus. Focus!

Re: DT Serum, Primary Testing In Progress
Ashton looked up at Tramp and tried to stealthily wipe his red eyes. "Huh?" He saw Tramp's state and shook out a couple of pain pills and mutely handed them to Tramp. "I'll go see what's for breakfast." He murmured.

Re: DT Serum, Primary Testing In Progress
Tramp grabbed the pills greedily and swallowed them. He closed his eyes, feeling the dulling effect of the drugs. "Okay," he mumbled. Then frowned. "Ashton, are you crying?"
