Chapter 35: ~Chapter 33 The Connection~



~Michaels Conference Room~

Michael fixes his outfit and knocks on Leonarods door. This was after he got back from hell and talked with Cloak. Leo was previously sleeping until he heard the knock, he got up groggily and answered the door,

"Who....oh hey Mike." He seemed tired, as per usual.

"Michael, if you please. I said I would come and visit you, sorry about Azrael....May I come in?"

"Sorry I kinda forgot about that uh...you may," He opened the door enough to where Michael could come in and he used a whisp of magic to close his open Grimoire on the desk, he forgot he even had it out.

"Thank you." Michael walks in as he takes a seat, one leg over the other as he looked a bit troubled. Leonardo looked to Michael,

"Would you like something to drink? Like tea or whatever?"

He wasn't too used to hanging out with people so he didn't really know what to do but he wanted Michael to feel welcome the best he could.

"No, I'm fine. Thank you, Leo. I'm sorry about....earlier....I didn't expect Azrael to barge in like that, but don't worry. I handled it as I do."

Leo felt a slight sense of dread with the whole situation, then again he still didn't even know the basics of what was going on.

"Sooo.....I'm assuming heavens sudden raining has something to do with whatever your about to tell me?"

He glanced Michael up and down, silently surveying for any physical cues of what's going on, what the general mood is.

" ....Yes.....Uriel is gone...."

*he froze up, Repeating the sentence in his head, that explains why he wasn't where he was supposed to be...he took a deep breath and just set a reassuring hand on Michael's back

"I'm sorry for your loss..."

Leo didn't truly understand the feeling of mourning since he was the archangel of life....he dealt with dead people for a living and had to learn to not feel about the subject as to not let it screw up his work, though with moments like these he was kinda...useless. he didn't know what to say or do. He sat down next to Michael, debating on saying something but staying silent.

"It was horrible....I didn't even...." the thoughts of seeing Uriel's death flooded his mind. "I didn't think angels could die in heaven....." he had to handle this the best he could. "But now we have another situation. Seems like Gabriel is.....lacking in what he is doing. I'm sorry you had to see me like that. I know it isn't like the son of God to show weakness like that."

"Dear, it's fine to show weakness occasionally..it's good for you."

He heard that comforting nicknames such as 'dear' and 'honey' tend to help people calm down so maybe...? He didn't want to screw this up, he didn't want Michael to be upset and leave, he wanted him to feel better, he wanted him to be...happy.

"I can't be that way....but maybe a nickname because those I trust would be good. Can I with you?"

"Yes, and I'll try to always be here for you too when you need to talk, I know how frustrating it can get too" He was trying his damnedest to be supportive for him.

Michael half smiles "Thanks Leon-Leo. thank you for...." He gets up and walks to the door. "For being my right hand man. I know I don't say it alot."

Leo cringed at being called 'Leon' though he knew it was just Michael correcting himself and being considerate of his preference for being called 'Leo' but still-

"No problem Mike..I'm always here for you." he then realized Michael was about to leave, so without thinking he asked

"How did he die?" He didn't mean to be so blunt about it but whatever would make the angel stay even just a minute longer.

Michael thought about it for a moment. "Hm? Well....we're not sure we just saw...." He remembers. "He was decapitated.....but who....we don't know." He shows a serious face.

"Was there anything left behind at the scene? Was there a chance it was...uh.....suicide..?"

He was firing questions, just wanting to have the angel around if only a little longer.

Michael looked irritated by that notion. "Don't be ridiculous! Uriel had alot to live for! Especially... Astela...."

"Right....my bad...wait shouldn't Azzy have the files of the death? He is the one who handles the souls passing on including the angels and exterminated."

"Hazy didn't find him.....Azrael did."

Leonardo paused for a moment, did he just ask...must've been in his mind right..?

"Sure"

He then mumbled to himself,, realizing something. "Wait...if Az doesn't have any files on the death then who reaped Uri's soul...?"

He then just cleared his throat with a cough and spoke up again

"let's go-"

"I don't know but it could be a real problem we have to look into." Says Michael, he notices a wierd smell. "What is that?" He looks around at the smell and realized it was his outfit. "Ugh, I smell like those filthy....sinners...I suppose a bath would be nice. Want to join me?" Asked Michael. He walks over to his room with Leo. Leo walks with him, debating on holding his hand and deciding not too. (😊).

"Just a moment." Says Michael as he began to take off his shirt and throws it into a basket and then goes behind a clothes changing wall and began taking off his pants and grabbed a towel to wrap around him.

Leo waited patiently for Michael, glancing around at random shiny things while he waited. Michael comes back out wrapped in a towel around his waist and naked otherwise. "All right I'm ready now. Let's go. Do you have all you need?" He says looking up at him.

Leo went back to his room real quick realizing he had to change too. He closed the door and took off his shirt, just tossing it on the floor somewhere (he'll pick it up later) and took off his pants and wrapped a towel around his waist before taking a breath and going back to outside Michael's room, his smaller wings were actually visible for once too.

"Ready?" He said as he nicely put his clothes down in the basket and closes the door. They walk to the wash room.

~Heavens blessing shower ~

Leo nodded in response to Michael's question, he didn't know why but he felt too embarrassed to speak around Michael at the moment, something or....everything about this felt a little too intimate for him. He hadn't noticed but his face was heating up a bit and he was blushing, a light gold blush as he walked with him.

Michael notices him acting a bit off. "Are you alright Leo?"

"I'm fine Mike, no needa worry"

He smiled, he always liked calling him 'mike' just to subtly tick him off.

💢. "Alright." They make it to the bath house. "Here we are. I'll be glad when I get off this smell." Says Michael.

"Yeah me too, ya kinda stink"

He snickers, knowing it'll get a rise out of Michael even though they both know it's true.

"Wow. Thanks. Huh? That's so strange?" He says putting his stuff down and looking down at the crystal bath water.

"Hhm?" He put his stuff down too next to Michael. Michael looks at him with a smile as he pushes him into the water and chuckles about it. Leo made a noise similar to that of a dying frog and he was flapping his wings aggressively just before he hit the water so he didn't fall in. "HAH you thought"

"You never let me win do you?" Whines Michael a bit. Leo was ever so casually sitting in the air, his wings keeping him afloat. "Nope"

Michael splashes him with water. "You're a jerk, Leo." He puts his feet in the water as he takes off his towel to show his boxers. When Michael had pushed him earlier his towel fell in the water so he was just chilling in his boxers. "And?"

He used one of his lower/smaller wings to splash Michael and instantly regretted it, flicking his wing aggressively to try and get it dry and he fell into the water In his panic. "Serves you right." He says mad with him a bit but he stripped as he began to bathe.

He got up and stripped too before aggressively flapping his wings to try and dry them off a bit. "Fuck offfffff"

He chuckled a little. "You're so aggressive, sometimes Leo. You just need to relax. Come here. I'll help you."

"I'm not aggressive-!"

He reluctantly went over to Michael with an eye roll, confused as to what he was gonna do. Michael used his angelic magic to dry his wings. "There all better."

"thanks...." He stretched his wings and shook off the few drops of water that got onto the edges of his feathers, his lower/smaller wings were not visible like usual.

"You're welcome. Do you mind getting my back?"

"Yh- sure" He went over and washed Michael's back, being surprisingly gentle. His wings showed as he opened them for Leo to get between them. His touch for some reason made him feel, different.

Leo was letting his hands wander Michael's back, taking in every detail, every curve every crease every vein...he could feel small fangs start to appear in his mouth and he looked away, continuing, not wanting to lose himself or his control. Michael's face flushed a bit to his manly hands it made him feel, excited? "Are-are you okay?"

"Of-ofcourse, you ok?" Michael's words had snapped him out of his damn near predatory trance as his fangs dissolved back to being his normal teeth as he continued with Michael's back.

"Y-yes. I think so.....Leo....I....just went to thank you."

"It's no problem mike" He smiled, moving on to Michael's wings, being somehow even gentler then he was before, knowing how sensitive wings can be to touch.

Michael moaned a bit and then covered his mouth embarrassed. "Y-your didn't here that!"

Leo quietly laughed to himself. "Sure thing princess"

"Wha! Princess?! I'm a commander!" He yells still embarrassed mad. "Y-my back is fine now." Walks a little bit away but then accidentally slips and lands on Leo.

Leo just accepted his fate in the water, waiting for Michael to get up first because he was lazy.

"Ops, S-sorry Leo." Gets up and looks for the the hair product as he applies it. Leo got up and stretched his wings, cringing at how uncomfortable and wet they were with a quiet 'bleh-'

"Alright. I'm almost done here." Michael hands him the soap. Leo nodded and kinda paused for a second.

"Uh...do you mind getting my wings..? If I do it ima be here for hours" He laughed somewhat anxiously.

"Of course." He began to carefully grab his feathers and clean them.

Due to reflex his wings violently flapped at first until he physically stopped them with his hands. "Sorry- my wings arnt really used to being touched-"

Michael smiles. "Understandable. It took me years to figure out how to get them to mind."

"Yeah...my wings pick up on vibrations in the air so like one touch is uh....you know when you use a microphone and it makes that loud screeching sound? That's basically what fills my senses but I can deal with it I've been practicing" Leo got his wings to calm down and stop being so ruffled and panicked.

" I See. It's okay. All done. You should be clean."

"Thanks" he smiled and expanded his wings a bit to expel a little water and to shake out any loose feathers, the loose feathers seemed to glow a dim gold, even the black ones.

"Welp! Thanks for the, mess of feathers ..."

"What mess?" the fallen feathers glow a bit brighter and fade away and he smiled at Michael.

Michael sees them fall he chuckles. "I suppose we could finish up and go. I don't smell bad anymore."

"Yeah, your actually tolerable now"

"Wow. Thanks. You too." Michael jokes.

"Mhm" he shoves Michael into the water with a cocky smile.

"Ah!" He falls in.

"Hah." he went to get out of the water and put a towel on, using his wings to cover himself.

Michael grabbed his ankle and pulled him in.

Leo squaked like a startled bird when he got pulled in, landing on Michael.

0/////0 his face blushes with Leo on top of him.

He gets up while blushing, refusing to look at him and trying not to think about it and he smacks Michael with his wing as he turned to leave (totally on accident).

"Oof!" Michael falls back in the water but gets back up. "Leonardo....I mean Leo....I just wanted to say...thanks for always being by my side."

"No problem mike- Michael. Thanks for always being on mine" he gave him a smile before grabbing his stuff and walking off to the changing rooms with his wings covering himself.

Michael's eyes sparkled to hearing the words of his best friend as he watched him walk off. Something was different, different about them this time. He didn't know what, his heart beat in a way he didn't understand. He followed him grabbing his stuff. "Call me Mike. Okay?" He looks up at him with a smile.

"Really?" Leo looked over at Michael and smiled genuinely he spoke.

"Alright Mike," he never seemed to smile with anyone else but him, and if he did smile with other people it was typically a sarcastic one or he was just bullying them, never really the genuine soft one he just gave the angel.

"Yes really but more if we're together, not so much in the higher ups." He chuckles.

"You're no fun, guess I can't ask much from Mr. Next in line" Leo laughs, his wings still covering himself along with a towel as they walked off together.
