Eric ____________________ Eric felt Ash touch him and he shuddered. He did not want his only friend in this to touch or see him like this. [i]Don't worry about its color Eric. We are demons after all so black isn't a color that is too surprising, and we already know what your soul is like. I've seen it every day since even before this whole mess began.

We are demons after all so black isn't a color that is too surprising, and we already know what your soul is like. I've seen it every day since even before this whole mess began. Your soul, and hence you, are a wonderful guy. You're funny, kind of a dork and have a bit of a dark side. But who doesn't?"[/i] After Ash said all this Eric sat up and looked at him with tears still still in his eyes. Eris saw what was on Ash's back and gasped at the sight. He then felt bad for doing all of this in front of him and listened to his final words with aww. [i]"I promised to accept you for who you are, regardless of this damn transformation."[/i] [color=6ecff6]Inspired, relieved, accepted, loved, bad for making a fuss[/color] He rolled over and looked at Ash. The boy had to be strong, because it was his strength that got Eric through this entire situation and back. He needed to man up and be the protector that Ash was gonna needed one day. He had not said it yet but Eric had already started to fall for Ash and knew that there was something deeper between the two of them. "Well if you really mean that then thank you, but I am a little upset that you did not tell me about this, we should support each other." He said with no emotion on his face. "Now turn around I need to put some more clothes on." He said with a blush (if it could be seen) and his eyes turning pink, with a smile. He got up and pulled out some shorts and a tang top to put on. The tang top was red and the shorts are black. Eric now wondered how color would look against his skin if it stayed like this, he hated and cringed at the thought. He slipped them on and walked back into the room with his skin. He had a moment of relapse and picked up his skin and threw it into the fire and watched it burn. "It not like I can put it back on right?" He said with a dark chuckle and smirk to anyone listening.
