[I'm rearranging the timeline a little. Haben and Noah's reunion maybe just happened a week or so after he got back from the month long trip. Does that work? Lol]

Haben, Robin, Sullivan, and Austin had been back at the Haven for a couple of weeks. The appearance of Noah had been surprising, but welcomed. Haben had managed to avoid Africa entirely on their travels, even though Robin had wanted to see where Haben had come from. He wasn't ready to own up to who he was, but Noah's presence was making him start to face the reason's he'd run away in the first place.

He was sitting by the water, feet dangling over the edge of the makeshift dock that jutted out into the small lake on the territory. Looking over his journal, he slowly paged through it, making notes here and there about the sketches he'd done of the memories he'd had.

He wanted Noah to be touching him all the time and he reached out to capture the man's hand, bringing it to his mouth to kiss his palm lightly. "They're going to tear themselves apart, if they haven't already. We'll all turn into the other cats. Loners, with no structure whatsoever." He was of the same mind as his father had been. What made the lions great and powerful was their ability to band together. And it was no secret that he felt pretty damn superior to other werecats. Not that he'd really run into any--which made it that much easier to judge them.

Noah smiled when Haben took a hold of his hand to kiss the palm of it. He dipped his head down and nuzzled in against the side of the other boy's neck with a quiet sigh.

"We have structure here, though, don't we?" he asked softly.

It certainly felt like it. Hunter was very good at keeping his pack in line, and together. It was actually amazing to see, something Noah knew lots of lions wanted for their Pride but had never gotten.

Haben really is Simba--*facepalm* Oh Lion King, you permeate my life.

Haben nodded. Part of him had wanted to take something from it, learn something from Hunter about how to run a pack. But he was too afraid to admit that part of him wanted to make his father proud and go back and clean things up. He was too young, he thought to himself. And he would fail and probably get himself killed along with Noah and anyone who supported him.

"He's a good leader. He's powerful and kind. Hey, maybe he can go to Africa and straighten things out."

"Yeah, I'm sure the Pride would love to take orders from a wolf," Noah said with a snort of amusement before he let his head settle down against Haben's chest.

He turned his head in and nuzzled his nose against the other boy, inhaling the familiar scent with a lazy smile. It was nice to be around another lion, and especially nice that it was Haben.

"D'you ever think I can cuddle with you and Robin?" he asked after a moment.

	Haben laughed at the very notion of a pride of lions taking orders from a wolf. But when Noah asked his last question, Haben's laughter died off. "You would want to?" He didn't think Robin would react well to such a request. Then again, the time away had done wonders for all four of them--or at least it had in Haben's optimistic opinion.

	"Yeah, if you and he wanted to," Noah said after a moment as he opened his eyes to stare over at the grass. "It gets lonely on my own sometime. I miss the way we'd all pile up together back in Africa sometimes, you know?" It'd felt safe, secure, and Noah had felt wanted. Now he didn't really feel any of those things, and it made him frown.

Haben could feel the well of loneliness in Noah. Their connection was strong and that emptiness made Haben frown as well. He leaned down to kiss the top of Noah's head and his mouth lingered there.

"I'll talk to him. I think he'd understand about needing to be in a pile." He didn't mean it with any kind of sarcasm, or jab against Robin, just that he needed that security only a pile could offer.

"All right," Noah answered as he looped an arm around Haben's waist.

For a long time, he'd been so angry at Haben, even when he'd been trying to find him. Their fist meeting in town had been less than stellar because Noah was so hurt and angry, but he'd gotten better. He'd forgiven Haben, mostly. It was still hard most days.

"I should get up and go shower," he said after a moment.

	"You smell good to me," he said with a laugh, but he did let him up, not wanting to give in to the sudden temptation to just ask if he could join him. He got to his feet, pushing his hair out of his face. There was mud on his feet from being damp and walking in the woods. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Noah laughed softly, though when Haben pulled away he felt all of the mirth sink out of his bones. He got up and dusted himself off as he shook his hair out of his eyes, wondering if he'd ever feel something for someone else like he did for the other lion. He wasn't so sure, and it was fucking depressing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

End for this one? I was thinking 2 options for the Milo...

[Either his family has been exiled from Greece for some crime against the pride there. Or, he's an import from Iran to one of the African prides and was sent to track and retrieve Noah. He'll be shocked to find Haben as well and try to bring them both back. Now that I type the last one out, I kinda like it best lol]

Haben glanced back over his shoulder, offering a sweet smile at Noah as they walked inside. He just loved having him here and he never wanted him to leave. He worried that if he found someone else to love though, that he'd want to go away with the person.

	[I like the second one, too! I think Noah took off when he was about 16ish, maybe he got picked to be some dbags mate and he was like eff this and took off to find Haben on his own, and he hasn't talked about it with Haben at all because he doesn't really plan to go home so he doesn't see the point?] (Reply to this)(Parent)
