Michael blinked, nodding his head as he reached out to give it a go. "It's just true.." He mumbled to the second part of Gabriel's words, before falling quiet to focus on braiding. His hands were clumsy, and the braid was looser than it should be, but he was trying.

"It ain true" he undose the braid and lets Michael try again "like this,you'll get it"

"I think it is." Michael shrugged, before going back to focus on braiding. It took a couple of attempts, but eventually he created a decent braid.

"Good job darlin, you got it said you would"

Michael flushed under the praise, smiling. "'s only because I had a great teacher.."

Tsk that ain true, i said you ad it in you, now then" he moves to moonlight and shows hik. How to braid "like this, like you did on mine"

"It is true!" He huffed, moving over to Moonlight with him, "I never would've gotten that right if you weren't showing me how.." He fell quiet again, working on braiding Moonlight's mane.

"id love company my dear" he looked down to the end of his bed where Micheal was. Paul opened his arm and shifted his body slightly so Micheal had more room to cuddle up close to, "wears on your mind my dear?"

Michael smiled, eager to accept the invitation as he slid into the space for him in Paul's arms, cuddling up without a moments hesitation. "Just worried about you, is all.." He mumbled, face buried into the vampire's shoulder as he ran his hand up and down his arm. "Have you been feeling alright?"

"ehh sure. just less brain activity." he shrugged it off then he mockingly gasped. "maybe the vampirism is catching up to me and mu finally dying!" he joked.

Michael rolled his eyes, playfully smacking Paul's arm with a huff. "Not funny." He deadpanned, even as his lips lifted in a smile. "Still though, I think I know the feeling.. Anything I can do to help?"

"oh boo hoo" Paul chuckled as he hugged Micheal closer. "hmm you can stay with me. davids on the right track with you." he teased, "you brighten my day up every time you walk through that arch"

Michael snickered, happy to move in closer as he tucked himself against Paul. "Yeah? Might be one of the only things he'll get right." He joked, before smiling, "I'm happy to hear that.. You always make my day better just by being here, you know."

"mmmh I try" Paul mumbled into Micheals neck as he melted into his boyfriends warmth, even if was only half of a humans.

"And you do a very good job at it." Michael couldn't help the soft praise, fingers running through Paul's hair as he smiled with content.

Michael snorted softly at his excitement, a fond smile crossing his lips as he leaned in to press a soft kiss to the top of his head. "I'd argue I don't do enough." He sighed, shaking his head. "You all deserve everything I can give.."

"davy won't like hearing that" Paul joked. he looked back up to Micheal from where his faces buried in the brunettes chest. he almost looked like a puppy god waiting for a tease to be handed to him.

"Well, he's not here to object, now is he?" Michael joked back, looking back at Paul with a playful grin. "All that matters right now is you, Paulie.." He hummed, reaching a hand up to gently poke his cheek.

"id love company my dear" he looked down to the end of his bed where Micheal was. Paul opened his arm and shifted his body slightly so Micheal had more room to cuddle up close to, "wears on your mind my dear?"

"Woah.." His eyes go wide, a hand reaching out before he could stop it. "Hey there, Moonlight.."

"It's alright, if she's fine with being in this form then I'm fine with it.." Michael smiled as Moonlight nuzzled him, gently patting her head.

" she sure likes you darlin, Ya ever rode before?"

"No sir, I've never even touched a horse before this.."

"Grandpa doesn't let any of us near anything of his to be fair-"

"Well, if you say so.. I'd love to ride, I just don't want to mess her or anything else up, y'know?"

Michael blinked, clearly not expecting to be picked up, but he was quick to adjust himself, holding onto Moonlight with wide eyes. "It's so high up here..!"

"Thanks.." Michael held on just a bit tighter to Moonlight, trying to keep his balance as he looked down.

"Your doin well perhap i should give you mah hat?"

"Oh, does the hat help with the riding?"

"What? Nah it just...aint sure jot to explain it jus try it" he puts the hat on Michael head

Michael blinked, readjusting the hat before smiling. "I mean, I already feel cooler, is that what you wear it for?"

Woulda though youd be used to the heat with been in Arizona an all, i sure do though keeps the sun off my head and all, you should wear one really to"

"I am pretty used to the heat, doesn't mean it's not nice to get out of it every now and then.. But I guess I'll keep that in mind, I've never really been a hat person before."

Well it helps keep the sun off your head and all, i can get ya one if you'd likw"

"Oh really? I mean, if you don't mind lending it to me, that would be pretty neat.."

He laughs, amused fangs on show "ya want mah hat? Well dont see why not, foe thw time been till we get ya your own"

"Seriously? Thank you! I can help pay for my own hat if that helps at all-"

"Nah think of it as a gift from me to you, moonlight coukd do witjba brush later if your like to hwlp with that"

"Now i wouldn call it strealin as ive lent you it, less you've stole soemthin else i ain aware of"

"Oh, no, I haven't taken anything, I just feel bad that you've been.. lending so much to me."

He narrows his eyes playfully "ya promise you ain taken nothin else?" Michael can hwar the jokeing tone

"Swear on my life." Michael joked back, placing a hand over his heart with a nod.

He laughs "im playin, if you wanted boots im sure we can get them foe you to"

"Really?? I'm just going to get the full cowboy gear, huh? Not that I mind.."

Michael grinned back, eyes shining with excitement. "Yeah, the fact I haven't fallen off yet is a shock-"

Ah shesa good girl, she won let that happen, and your a good boy holdin on well, you look to be enjoying it"

"I have been putting a lot of trust in her.." His face flushed at the praise, clearing his throat with a smile. "I am enjoying myself a lot though.."

He laughs soflty and leads thw two to a barn, he holds his hand out to help Michael off

Michael smiled at him, gently hopping off Moonlight before turning to pat her side. "Thank you, sir.." He hummed, looking back to Gabriel.

"Sir now huh? Avent been called that for a while" he headed in coming out with the brushes and such to brush moonlight "here you are darlin, i said you could help"

"Nah suga its alrigh" he gently gets the brush hands it to Michael and helps jim brush moonlight "like this darlin"

"Okay, if you say so.." Michael nodded, still looking a bit flustered as the other led his motions. He was quiet, simply taking it all in..

Letting his hand go Gabriel let Michael continue on his own "jus like that, your doin well Michael"

Michael continued the motions with a quiet and intent focus, not wishing to disappoint the other as he brushed Moonlight.

Smiling softly he watched tbe orher "wanna learn to braid er mane?"

"I can? I mean, sure! I'm really bad with my hands though, it might turn out bad-"

"Oh, no, I haven't taken anything, I just feel bad that you've been.. lending so much to me."

He narrows his eyes playfully "ya promise you ain taken nothin else?" Michael can hwar the jokeing tone

"Swear on my life." Michael joked back, placing a hand over his heart with a nod.

He laughs "im playin, if you wanted boots im sure we can get them foe you to"

"Really?? I'm just going to get the full cowboy gear, huh? Not that I mind.."

Dont see why not" he laughs "can i get a yeehaw?"

He snorts, nodding and tilting the hat playfully. "Yeehaw!"

He laughed soflty and looked at the other "your doin well, told ya moonlight will look after you"

Michael grinned back, eyes shining with excitement. "Yeah, the fact I haven't fallen off yet is a shock-"

Ah shesa good girl, she won let that happen, and your a good boy holdin on well, you look to be enjoying it"

"I have been putting a lot of trust in her.." His face flushed at the praise, clearing his throat with a smile. "I am enjoying myself a lot though.."

He laughs soflty and leads thw two to a barn, he holds his hand out to help Michael off

Michael smiled at him, gently hopping off Moonlight before turning to pat her side. "Thank you, sir.." He hummed, looking back to Gabriel.

My horse...well she ain fully a horse she can shift i guess a hell beast?" Gabriel spoke

"Ooh, a hell beast? She sounds pretty cool, where would I meet her?"

I can bring er round if you'd like, can be horse form or any other

"Sure, I wouldn't mind any form, whatever she feels like coming in would be fine."

"Woah.." His eyes go wide, a hand reaching out before he could stop it. "Hey there, Moonlight.."

"It's alright, if she's fine with being in this form then I'm fine with it.." Michael smiled as Moonlight nuzzled him, gently patting her head.

" she sure likes you darlin, Ya ever rode before?"

"No sir, I've never even touched a horse before this.."

Your grandpa has horses dont he? Or does he not let you near em?"

"Grandpa doesn't let any of us near anything of his to be fair-"

He let out a small amused chuckle "well if you'd like you could take moonlight for a ride"

"Really?? You wouldn't mind? I don't really know how to ride, though.."

Not at all, shes a good girl, shed look after ya and so will i, we wont let anythin happen to you"

"Well, if you say so.. I'd love to ride, I just don't want to mess her or anything else up, y'know?"

Michael blinked, clearly not expecting to be picked up, but he was quick to adjust himself, holding onto Moonlight with wide eyes. "It's so high up here..!"

"Thanks.." Michael held on just a bit tighter to Moonlight, trying to keep his balance as he looked down.

"Your doin well perhap i should give you mah hat?"

"Oh, does the hat help with the riding?"

"What? Nah it just...aint sure jot to explain it jus try it" he puts the hat on Michael head

Michael blinked, readjusting the hat before smiling. "I mean, I already feel cooler, is that what you wear it for?"

Woulda though youd be used to the heat with been in Arizona an all, i sure do though keeps the sun off my head and all, you should wear one really to"

"I am pretty used to the heat, doesn't mean it's not nice to get out of it every now and then.. But I guess I'll keep that in mind, I've never really been a hat person before."

Well it helps keep the sun off your head and all, i can get ya one if you'd likw"

"Oh really? I mean, if you don't mind lending it to me, that would be pretty neat.."

He laughs, amused fangs on show "ya want mah hat? Well dont see why not, foe thw time been till we get ya your own"

"Seriously? Thank you! I can help pay for my own hat if that helps at all-"

"Nah think of it as a gift from me to you, moonlight coukd do witjba brush later if your like to hwlp with that"

"If you say so.. Thanks again. I can definitely help out later, it's only right to repay you for everything."

"No need to thank me i should be thankin you'

"Why's that? I haven't been doing much but stealing your stuff-"

"Now i wouldn call it strealin as ive lent you it, less you've stole soemthin else i ain aware of"
