“I wanted to. I’m glad you like it.” Nuzzles his head and yawns curling into the warmth.

Carlos chuckled softly, and then he let out a sigh. This was
so kind of Yondu… and Carlos had no idea on how he would repay him. As for
Earth…

He had to go back. His dad and brother had no idea where he
was or if he was safe.  And depending on
what happened, he’d have to come up with a story for where he’d been for the
police. Maybe he could talk with Kraglin and Peter and ask them to help verify
whatever he came up with.

“Hey… I want you to meet my family,” Carlos told Yondu.

“I….. I don’t know about that Carlos….. I mean… I’m a alien….. it wouldn’t be safe for you.. your family… or myself to be honest….. while I’d love to… it’s… best you go home…. “

Carlos turned to Yondu. “But my dad would want to thank you
for taking care of me. And my brother too. They’d love to meet you. They’re not
judgemental people – once they understand that aliens are a thing and life
exists outside of Earth, they’ll accept you and treat you like a person.  Are… are you worried that they won’t?”

“Well… there’s that……. but there’s also…those scientists that…. capture strange creatures…. and… dissect them or test of them…..and cage them….”

Carlos frowned. He set down the book and reached his arms
around Yondu’s neck to hug him. “I wouldn’t let that happen to you, Yondu. I
want you to be safe visiting my family. And they’ll keep you a secret, I know
they will.”

Carlos just laughed. “Well, you aren’t getting one of those
things with me, I’m afraid. I haven’t been with anyone since before college. I
think I told you that before…” God, Carlos hadn’t thought about that event with
Ralphie for years.

“Heh, it was an example. Still, I’m sure you’re better than some kid right outta school.” He shrugged. “Not that I really expect anything to happen on this little trip, that’ll be entirely up to you, my friend. Whatever you want is just fine with me.”

Carlos smiled at him. “Well… I want to have fun, and to make a good friend. As for anything else…
well, a good rule of thumb my Dad always told me was to make sure you can stand
a road trip with someone first before things got serious.”

“Yes, I know, it probably has its good side, but now we need to keep it from getting engulfed in the flames of Hell.” Stephen was still aggressively searching for more bloodstones until Carlos mentioned his stash. “Yes, please. I need to learn how to understand this magic quick before Azazel actually shows up, discovering this source of power and using it for his own good!” The small bamf shivered when he mentioned the demon. “Don’t worry, we will prevent that from happening, even if it means getting stuck in Nightvale for some time before I can make it back to the Sanctum.” His mind was so focused on stopping that red monster from destroying this place.

Carlos smiled slightly at the other man and gestured for him to follow. “Should we work on finding the rest of the Bamfs and getting them to safety?” he asked. “I can put in a call to the radio station and let them know that they’re benign, so people can start helping them.”

He unlocked the door that led to a staircase that went straight up from them. He started up the stairs, expecting Dr Strange to follow him with the Bamf.

“Actually….” He stopped for a moment to ponder the request. “yes, that would be a brilliant idea. The more bamfs we save, the better.” Stephen once again started thinking, now needing to know the mechanics of what he was actually doing because in truth, he had no idea. “Is there a book on bloodstone chants that I can resource back to lying around? It would be of some assistance…”

The bamf started cooing in his ear again which he turned to instantly. “If I could only understand you. It would be helpful only if my magic worked or Nightcrawler was here, but this will have to do. I can only assume that you know something I don’t, which seems to be the scenario for everyone I meet in this town. No offense, Carlos. It’s just all so…strange, just like me. And I just got here, so I’m trying to make sense of it all while attempting to help you with what knowledge I have.”

“Well, I don’t have a book,” Carlos told him. “Books are
dangerous – I don’t know if you noticed the chains on my bookshelf down in the
lab. But there is a phone app for
bloodstone rituals – I’ll go ahead and show it to you upstairs.”

They reached the top of the steps and Carlos pushed open the
door. “So, who’s Nightcrawler? I thought we were talking about a Kurt Wagner
before…”

Carlos was taken off-guard, but he merely gave the other a contemplative frown before reaching out to comply. “Uh… alright,” he said.

“Oh,
that’s so thoughtful of you!” she grinned. “You just barely met them,
and you’re already just jumping right in to do so much to help.” She
smiled at him across the table, and took a sip of her tea. “You must
have such a kind heart…”

Carlos shrugged a little awkwardly. “Well, it was the only
way they’d let me study them,” Carlos admitted. “But they are really good – I’d
love to help them out!” He glanced at Selina’s tea and realized that he should probably get up to go order something. But he worried that it’d be a bit rude to go make his order while they already had a conversation topic to go on.

“Oh- Oh my gosh! You probably want something to drink, don’t you?” she exclaimed, having noticed his eyes flickering over her cup. “Oh, it was so rude of me not to wait, I just… I was just nervous, needed something to help calm me down, so I… I ordered before you got here…” She bit her lip, frowning. “I’m sorry… Would you like to get something?”

Carlos smiled sheepishly at her. “Yeah, I would like to,” he
said. “I just didn’t wanna be rude. I promise, I’ll be just a second – it’s
okay.”

She nodded, giving him a small wave of approval. “Yeah, no, that’s fine, take your time, take your time, it’s alright, go ahead,” she stammered. Her face was growing hot. How had she been so inconsiderate and unobservant? They came here for coffee, and she completely forgot that the entire other human entity that was accompanying her didn’t have coffee. She must have looked so rude and foolish. This just all seemed to be going so terribly… ‘Great first impression, Selina, way to go,’ she thought to herself.

Carlos’ smile grew wider and he pat the table. “I’ll be
back,” he said quickly, standing up and hurrying over to the register. He
thought he’d probably just get a standard coffee with milk – something simple
and quick.

Although she felt as if things were falling apart, she felt her heart flutter when he smiled. She couldn’t help but smile back. She leaned back in her chair, holding the tea to her chest. He was just so sweet. She really hoped something came out of this and that she could develop some sort of relationship with him. Friendship or otherwise. He seemed like a genuinely good person, and she’d be happy no matter what. So long as they left this coffee shop on speaking terms.

Carlos made his order and gave his name. He paid for it and
then came back to the table.

“Okay – that’ll just be a minute,” he assured Selina. “So…
um, what are you up to? Work or school or… what?”

Hey, kid. Uh… nice knife.

Hey. Thanks I guess, an anon gave it to me. Don’t really have a use for it though.

Sure, yeah.

*looks at the kid* You can, uh… ask me if you need anything
as well. I mean, I used to be a male teenager too.

It’s fine. I can probably figure this out on my own.

Well, if you can’t… you know where to find us. Do you need
any help? Like, clothes or something?

Puts
a arm over his shoulder pulling him close and sighs relaxing and
leaning back. “This is…. well nice. It’s good…. “ smiles closing his
eyes.

“That’s good,” Carlos said with a slight smile. His cup
still felt too hot to drink so he just held it, closing his eyes for a bit with
his head resting against Yondu’s shoulder.

Nuzzles against his head and lays his ontop Of Carlos’s. “To coolnit to drink level just put your finger onto of the handle…..”

“Hm?” Carlos asked. “Oh, no, it’s okay,” he said. “I like waiting for it to cool… it feels good in my hands, and the delayed gratification is nice sometimes.”

“Hmmm… your strange…. hehe. I like strange. You do things so differently from everyone else…”

“Well, I grew up differently,” Carlos said. “Even though Peter’s a human too, I was raised on Earth so I did things a little different. And we didn’t have ‘perfect temperature’ cups.” He smiled slightly and nuzzled Yondu’s chin.

Smiles his ears wiggling happily and snuggles him. “We’ll be rounding on terra in 3 days…”

Carlos froze. Already? He thought they had at least a couple
more weeks. Granted he couldn’t judge distance in space really well, but… he
just thought it’d be longer than that. He… wasn’t sure how to feel about it… or what to say about it.

“……. you know how you said you wanted a little physical book of pictures to show yer family?….. well ummm …. it doesn’t have today’s pictures yet but…” leans over on the table and hands him a Leather book inside dozens of photos from all the places they had visited.

Carlos blinked, surprised. He leaned forward to put his cup
down on the side table and took the book. He opened it and gasped softly. “When
did you have the time to do this?” he asked.

“Anytime I got. Sometimes when I should be sleeping or couldn’t sleep….I wanted to get it done before we reached earth….”

“I… I don’t know what to say, Yondu,” Carlos said softly. “You
– you really didn’t have to. This is just… amazing.”
