Matching

Arius woke up to the sound of birds chirping, as he opened his eyes, Dante's bright smile came into view. He realized then that Dante had dimples, now what could be so amazing that it would make this child beam so adorably?

"Do you need something?" The response he got was a simple shake of the head. He didn't bother with it then, as he climbed out of bed to go brush his teeth. The small one followed, then Arius realized something. Dante didn't have a toothbrush, or even his own clothes.

"How about we go buy you some nessesities?" Arius smiled at Dante. The small one nodded. Arius went into thought about what Dante might want or need. Perhaps Dante could do with a phone of his own?

Arius had decided what they were going to do today, shop. Obviously they would go somewhere owned by Cloud corporate, because Arius was a prideful man.

The duo made their way across town after filling up on cereal. As Arius looked at Dante, he suddenly decided to get matching pairs of everything.

Arius took Dante into a clothing shop, they could go find a toothbrush to buy later. Dante grabbed Arius's hand as he curiously dragged him along. Arius knew of a line of clothing that had matching clothes for families, so the two went to that Isle first.

They both tried on matching business suits first, Arius thought they looked great so he kept taking pictures as they tried on even more clothes. He would have bought all the different sets if Dante didn't stop him by saying, "We should check other isles too."

Too bad they didn't but any more matching clothes after that, but it was still a good balance. Though, Arius wondered if Dante waited anything else besides clothing. Toys perhaps?

Arius had sent some pictures to Zuna, he smiled at her response. "I want a matching onesie too!"

He complied of course, after getting her size he bought one for her that matched one of the sets Arius had previously bought. After some thought he also asked for her dad's size, and he ended up getting another for him. Eirik would probably never wear a onesie, but Arius and Zuna could still hope.

When Arius and Dante finally left the store, Arius asked if Dante wanted any stuffed animals. Of course, Dante nodded so they went to a toy store.

They couldn't find anything Dante wanted so they decided to leave, but something caught the young ones eye. It was a blue stuffed bunny.

"Are you going to name it?" Arius asked as they walked back to the car. The sight of Dante hugging a bunny was simply too heart warming.

The boy nodded before saying, "Bonbon." The cute name seemed to be exactly what Arius expected, yet Arius still couldn't help but to revel in awe.

"Noice choice." Arius agreed.

On they way home, they stopped somewhere to buy a toothbrush, and also got lunch. They had actually spent a long time shopping, while most men wouldn't.

Arius pulled out two pairs of sunglasses he had bought earlier and put one pair on Dante, and the other on himself. He wanted to wear a matching set of clothes with Dante too, but they were still on the road.

They were halfway home when a ducks qauking could be heard. It was Arius's phone, he changed the ring tone after yesterday.

"Could you pick it up for me?" He asked Dante, since his phone was in the back with him. The boy nodded.

"Dante speaking." He said as he clicked to accept the call, he had learned since last time.

"Give the phone to Phil." Pierre said.

"He told me to it pick up."

"Whatever. I have information on the gang, Chrysanthemum. Tell Phil."

Dante looked up at Arius. "It's about Asrael."

"Oh! Gimme." Arius reached behind him to grab the phone, while Dante didn't hesitate to had it over.

"What do you have?" Arius was excited.

"It's currently located in a bad neighborhood." Pierre started. "I'll text you the address. Do you need backup?" Pierre could already tell that Arius planned to go their himself.

"I already have backup." Arius said with meaning, while Pierre blanked, what did he mean?

"Oh right, screw you for giving me an empty box of donuts!" Pierre could hear Arius chuckled on the other end.

"Bye now, tell Jane I miss her." Arius hung up.
