Zephyros caught his arm, thinking very quickly. He didn't want him to go. "Wait..." He tried to think of a reason to keep Jason there. He just didn't want him to go. Come on, Zeph, THINK!

Jason blinked as he was suddenly pulled a little closer to Zeph again. "Yes...?"

"Don't go... please?" he asked softly, looking into Jason's eyes. He couldn't help it. He really hadn't been attracted to anyone for nearly two years... male, female.... no one caught his attention. But Jason... maybe there was something more to him. He wanted to know what it was. Maybe it was how shy he was. Most people chased him, not the other way around. He wanted... to know more. "You have all weekend for homework..."

Jason nodded, somewhat nervous now, though he wasn't sure why. "True... it's only Friday..."
He stepped closer to Zeph, looking at him in confusion. There was something about the urgency in the young mage's voice that made him feel like he was needed... He liked feeling that he was needed. It was the idea of being eventually rejected that frightened him out of pursuing relationships. He had already been hurt once before, and was in no hurry to relive the past.

Zephyros' eyes eased, he realized Jason wasn't just going to leave. He let his arm go, trying to think of how to explain this. "Jason... I... I don't know how to put this, so I'm just going to say what comes, okay?"
He looked at him, trying to gather his thoughts. "Since my girlfriend dumped me, I haven't been interested in anyone. At all. I mean, literally anyone. But... but you're different. I don't know why, and I don't care. I... I want to get to know you. As friends, at first I guess but..." he floundered. He never beared his soul like this, never. Except very rarely to Notos. He... hated being vulnerable.

Jason's whole face felt like it was on fire. He coughed and composed himself. "I think I'd like that. A lot." He smiled at the thought of a friendship with the gorgeous Greek. Zephyros had clearly said "at first"... this felt like an invitation to something bigger and better, in time.

Zephyros smiled back, seeming to relax as he saw that he hadn't scared Jason off. He bit his lip a little, then leaned forward and kissed Jason's forehead quickly. "I'd like that too. And now that we have gotten that out... I AM standing here in nothing but a towel and now that the hot water is off... it's getting cold in here."
The goosebumps on Zephyros' arms and chest proved his words. He rubbed his arms, biting his lip. He didn't WANT to ask Jason to step to the side so he could get some clothes, but he wasn't used to cold.

Jason's face burned slightly again as Zephyros' lips met his forehead. He wasn't sure if that had been out of bounds--they'd only just met, for crying out loud--but he liked it. He was quite sure he liked it.
It took a moment for him to come back to reality and register what the boy was saying: "...it's getting cold in here."
"Oh--right! Um... yeah..." Jason mentally smacked himself in embarrassment, then took another step or two closer to the other boy, pressing close to him for warmth. "Let's find you some clean clothes before you freeze."

He paused for a second, seeing Jason turn more red and wondered what was wrong. Then he mentally flushed. He'd forgotten about how... stand-offish people here were. And then Jason stepped closer.
Zephyros didn't mind cuddling close a bit to the werewolf. Jason was warm, and... at the moment, he might have even snuggled with his ex Hyakinthos for warmth. Or his brother Euros. Okay, not Hyakinthos. Euros possibly but extremely unlikely. He smiled, shivering a little. "I have some in my bag. I didn't come here in that workout outfit. Probably would have ended up caught in the halls or something. Or managed to find the only broken window in this building."
He wanted to add Of course, my bag is out there but didn't. He prefering cuddling until Jason thought of it.

"Oh, scheisse... your bag's outside," Jason remembered, glancing toward the shower curtain that hid them. Even so, he didn't move from Zeph's side. "Do you want me to run and get it really quick? I don't want you to catch a cold or pneumonia or something..."

"I'm not going to catch a cold just because it's a little chilly, and I can get dressed out there easier than in this close space," he pointed out, though he snuggled just a bit closer to Jason's chest. His hair, still damp, seemed to cling to his head and neck, making him colder. He couldn't help the shivering that made his body tremble no matter how hard he tried now, and he could bet his lips were turning blue.

"Then let's get you out there before you turn blue," Jason said firmly, stepping toward the curtain and bringing Zeph with him.

Zephyros followed him... not that he had much choice. Jason's arm around his shoulders didn't really let him to try stay back. Not that he wanted to. He was really liking having Jason's arm around him... just like he'd enjoyed Jason's fussing over him right after that foolish run. That was probably part of what had interested him. Most would have just tossed the towel on top of him, but Jason just... helped. He was deciding rather quickly he didn't like Jason's heels being so high though. He wasn't used to being this much shorter. He shivered again. Once the curtain was out of the way, he quickly went to his bag and pulled his shirt over his head. It was just long enough that he could get the towel out of the way and finish dressing. Hopefully without making jason uncomfortable, but Zeph's trembling told him that it would be a bad idea to remain so... unclad for too much longer. You didn't get colds just by being cold... but it did lower your immunity. He curled up on the bench once he was dressed, his arms wrapped tightly around his knees.

Jason averted his eyes politely to the floor as Zeph dressed himself, watching the boy's ankles stepping into a pair of shorts. Seeing the ankles move out of his line of sight (very nice ankles they were, too...) and hearing Zeph curl up on a bench, Jason looked up and went to sit down beside him. He sat for awhile in silence, wondering what to say about all this, if anything could be said at all.

Zephyros leaned to the side a bit to lean against him, his eyes closing. "One of these days I'm going to remember that it gets cold here and bring pants with me," he chuckled. He shifted a bit closer. "Mm, you're warm."

Jason smiled as Zeph leaned against him. "Yeah, pants would help you a lot, especially since winter's coming... Glad I can help warm you up." He shifted closer himself, gazing off into space. This had come upon them so fast... he wasn't entirely sure he was ready for another relationship just yet. A friend, though... you could never have too many friends. And if this got deeper in time, then they'd cross that bridge when they came to it.

Zephyros was content as he was. Jason was warm, he was getting warm... he definitely had a new friend, with the strong potential of becoming more. His eyes closed completely. There was still almost an hour until curfew... he could gladly sit here until it was time to stay into his own dorm for the night. After too, but he didn't want to cause trouble.

Jason held his silence, still snuggled contently against Zephyros' body. He was quite comfortable, even to the point of dozing off where he sat. It wasn't even all that late yet...

Zephyros felt drowsy as well, blinking. "Seems like Hypnos is courting us both," he chuckled a little, listening to Jason's heart slowing a bit. "While I really, really would love to stay here, we should probably both head to our dorms, if not our beds."
He didn't move, despite his words. He missed sleeping with someone... not with, with. Just in the same bed as. And dozing off on a bench would work for him.

"Mmmm," Jason mumbled, half-asleep. He was quite happy where he was, and unwilling to let go of Zeph now that he was so comfortable. "Whatever you say..." His head fell sideways onto Zeph's shoulder as Hypnos, or Irmo, or whoever, called him down into sleep.

Zephyros sighed. As much as he really, really wanted to give in to sleep as well, he didn't want some professor or something to come in and wake them up. Rudely, probably. He moved his shoulder a little, "Jason... we can't sleep here..." he yawned, wanting desperately to do just that. Sleep with Jason right here. "We need to get to our rooms. Wake up..." he kept his voice soft but insistent.

Jason stirred unwillingly from sleep, but blinked his eyes open anyway. He was immediately grateful that he had, remembering that he had dozed off embracing the figure of a god. Smiling and sitting up a little, he slowly loosed his arms from around Zephyros. "Guess we should get to bed after all..." He yawned and stretched, trying to wake himself up enough to be able to get to his dorm without falling asleep while walking.

Zephyros looked at him, a little concerned. "You aren't going to fall asleep walking or anything, are you? Should I walk with you? I'm a bit more awake than you are, and it's rather difficult to stay upright when you're asleep."
Mostly... he still didn't like those heels. If Jason stumbled in his barely conscious state, he could... well, break an ankle possibly. He stood and offered Jason a hand to help him up. "You helped me, it's only fair I return the favor."

Jason smiled, gratefully accepting Zeph's hand. "Thank you. I don't know how far I could make it on my own in the state, even without the heels," he laughed. "Shall we?"
