arthur morgan is an art student at a community college when he gets flashes of something, of the past and camps and outlaws and everything in between. he thought it was just a trick or his brain, but when he gets coffee one night he finds himself meeting someone he swears he’s met before

past lifes. memories from your past life and soulmates and all that mushy stuff. his professor did tell him to quote ‘get in touch with your feelings’. the idea of two souls reincarnating over and over again through lifetimes and generations, touching and reaching, only for something bigger than the both of them to split them apart. it sounds like torture, and it sounds like something cheesy and disgusting. the thought of it grosses him out.

  because love is finicky and strange and painful. he’s seen it fall apart when his ma died that made his pa turn sour and corrupt. attaching yourself to someone and putting all of your heart knowing that if they leave, you will be ruined and into shambles. that trust feels terrifying, and arthur doesn’t do that. he’s already done it with mary, it all capsized and turned into nothing.

Arthur was beginning to stutter in his movements, digging his nails into Charles’ back as he ground as hard as he could, his movements slowing, eyes rolling back as finally the knot in his lower stomach released and he came, bucking his hips frantically, spilling cum into his union suit. That was enough to set Charles enough, the man pulling Arthur in close, kissing him desperately as he jostled Arthur with each buck of his hips, messing his breeches until finally he dropped his head against Arthur’s shoulder, the man resting his head against his chest, turning his head to kiss at his neck.

Arthur’s ears pinked, and turned his head, trying to hide in Charles’ chest.

**An overhaul of my first work**

Charles knew that there was some sort of darkness brewing inside of Arthur. He thought that maybe he needed some time alone, but that just drew Charles closer to Arthur. Too close for comfort.

Charles, along with John, know that they need to do something before it gets any worse.
