A New Perspective

<div align=center>It was a warm day for the most part, though William was still bundled up in a thick woolen jumper, the colourful patchwork one that Gabriel had gotten him for his last birthday. It was ridiculous to say the least, but he liked it nonetheless. It perhaps would have been too warm for most to wear that many layers, but William seemed alright as he was. "Gabey!" He chirped, abandoning his new friend and pouncing on the older boy, hooking both arms around his neck and pulling him close for a moment. Bill was excited. He was excited to show Gabe that he'd made a friend. Oliver was a lot younger than Bill, but William didn't really mind all that much. "I made a friend!" He enthused, "but... I promised I'd show him around town... But I don't really know the way around town... So I thought you could show us around instead!" He sounded so excited about the prospect it was very likely very difficult to say no to him.

He detached himself from the Latino and shuffled back to find Oliver, grabbing his wrist and tugging him over. "His name is Oliver and he can turn into dinosaurs isn't that cool?" William's demeanor was more like a puppy than an eighteen year old boy at the moment, he never really introduced any friends to Gabe, and vice versa. The last time hadn't really gone very well, but Bill didn't think Oli was very likely to start any fights with anyone, and Gabe wasn't generally hostile to anyone.

"Do you know any places? I don't. I don't come out unless I'm with you. I'll get lost." He spoke very quickly and all at once, it was unusual to see William quite so talkative for once, he was a quiet boy, especially in comparison to Gabriel. "Oliver this is Gabriel," he stated, whirling round to look at the blonde boy, "I like his face and sometimes he kisses me."</div>

<div align=center>Though he was following close behind the older boy, Oliver couldn't help but to observe his surroundings carefully. He took in every detail to make sure he wouldn't get lost while walking around later. Because that would make him cry, and he would become a mess, and he certainly didn't want that. Every time he trailed behind he'd scurry to catch up with Bill, following behind him like a baby duck of sorts. From what he had told him, they were going to meet up with his boyfriend to look around the city. As excited as he was to get this tour on the road and meet someone new, he was a bit hesitant with the voice in the back of his mind that kept his doubts alive. But, since he was in a good mood, he kept these down.

When they arrived, Oliver watched as Bill ran up to him, smiling sheepishly. He waved a bit when Gabe was told that they were to walk together around town, and hoped that at least he wasn't going to be a terrible burden... Or third wheel. His thoughts were cut off as Bill tugged him out of surprise, Oliver slightly squeaking out in response. His face flushed a pale red when he was brought up to him, nodding at the confirmation of the ability. It was just a little odd that the pint-sized British schoolboy could become a full grown Tyrannosaurus rex on a whim. So much though that even the receptionist asked 'no seriously, what can you do?' after his explanation. Maybe he'd show them... Then again, he didn't want a Godzilla-sized incident to go down.

When he was formerly introduced, he bowed his head slightly and folded his hands out in front of him. ”Nice to meet you Gabriel!” He confirmed eagerly, chuckling a bit at William's comment. </div>

<div align=center>Bill flung himself back at Gabriel again, clinging to the man and nestling himself underneath his arm. William wouldn't have called himself obsessed with dinosaurs at all, he barely even mentioned them. But nonetheless, it was still an exciting thing to find a boy that could become them. He was glad Gabe had agreed to let Oli come too, the boy needed looking after and William had taken it upon himself to perform that task. He stuck a hand out for Oliver to take and smiled brightly, "just so you don't get lost... Mmkay?" He pouted a little and tilted his head to the side.

Losing Oliver was the last thing William wanted to do, he got the feeling that the poor kid would freak out completely if he found himself alone- exactly as he would himself. "I hope you can find a place where you can turn into dinosaurs without... Squashing... Anyone..." His brow furrowed as he said that last part, he was absolutely sure there was somewhere, but the only thing coming to mind was the big forest. Surely it didn't matter if Oli knocked down a few trees, did it? No people ever went in the forest, not really, and the terrifying monsters that lurked within wouldn't stand a chance against a T-rex! Perfect.

Bill leaned up and pressed a small, soft kiss to Gabe's cheek, nuzzling him affectionately for a moment before pushing at him and tugging at his hand, "s'go, s'go!" Bill was more childlike than ever when Gabriel was around, even if he wasn't so excited as he was now, "where are we going?" He glanced between the two for a moment, clinging to Gabe's arm and waving his hand at Oliver for a brief moment.</div>

<div align=center>Well, it certainly was a great thing that the both of them were a friendly sort of people. They also seemed to be rather content with one another, which was a fact that comforted him. He liked love. Love was nice. Then again, he was the romantic sort of kid, despite him being a bit young for it all. He was also a bit... Unmanly for a lot of girls his age.

He grinned eagerly when it was confirmed that Gabe was able to show them around. At least he wasn't going to be stuck doing it by himself, and he was with good company. And hey, they thought his powers were cool. Another bonus. ”Oh, great! Th-thank you!” He gratified with a somewhat shaky voice, which occasionally happened when he got excited or emotional. The city did hold a lot of curiosity for him, and the combination with the lack of city experience and his own curiosity had led him to become rather excited. He wasn't terribly concerned whether or not the boys would become affectionate. As long as he didn't get in the way of the two, he was just fine.

When Bill stuck out his hand for him however Oliver was a bit confused. Was he supposed to... Hold it? Heck, his own mother wasn't one to participate in these sorts of things, let alone someone he met not to long ago. Then again, this depreciation of caring was something welcomed to Oliver, albeit in a puzzled fashion. ”O... Kay...” He mumbled as he took his hand. With the comment on his ability to transform, Oliver nodded. He was still unsure where he would do it, or if he would hurt anyone. ”I hope so... I just don't want to break anything... Or anyone, for that matter. That would be bad.” He gulped with his final somewhat morbid comment.

He waited patiently for them to decide on where they were going to go. Anywhere at this point was fine... After all, he imagined there was a lot of ground to cover, and he couldn't wait to explore it. "I'd be happy to go wherever. Where would you like to go? He asked Gabe in a small voice.</div>

<div align=center>William was beginning to struggle to distribute his love between the two, though he supposed one was love and one was friendship. He still struggled to see the difference between the two, aside from the fact that you could do things with a boyfriend that would be considered strange with a usual friend. Besides, Gabriel gave him a strange feeling in his chest that no one else did. So he supposed, they were different... It confused Bill nonetheless, he'd ask Gabe about it sometime, he was pretty sure he'd know. Gabe knew about a lot of things that William didn't.

Bill pushed himself a little closer as Gabe kissed him, purring at the sensation it gave him. He pulled Oli close and tucked him underneath his arm. "yay!" He liked this. It made him feel like they were a little family and that made him happy- despite the fact that he'd not really known Oliver very long, at least this was a way to get closer to him. "This is fun. Can we get lunch? Can we go to the arcade too! I wanna play video games!" Although William was terrible at all of them, apart from maybe Dance Dance Nation and Guitar Hero.

"What do you like to do?" He asked Oli, his eyes flicking down to look at him, "I like to do lots of things! Do you have any money, Gabey? Can you buy me a present?" William liked presents, if there was one surefire way to win over his heart, it was by buying him useless junk he didn't need. </div>

<div align=center> This was... Different, to say the least. Oliver wasn't used to being treated like this. Being without the close eye of a parental guardian when growing up in a boarding school, he wasn't quite used to being treated like a kid beyond just a student. But, from what he knew so far... He liked it. He liked it a lot.

So of course, he welcomed in positive physical contact and the offers. But he couldn't decide on what he wanted! The general consensus seemed to be however to hit the arcade. He hadn't... Been to an arcade before. Actually, come to think of it, when was the last time he played a video game? ”Oh, gosh... I don't think I've played a video game before...” But that didn't mean he didn't want to! ”But I would like to! Can we please go to the arcade in that case?” He wasn't really in a rush or was pressed to do anything in particular, so he just left what would happen to the older boys. At the very least, he was very grateful that the other two were taking time to do this. He wondered if it was possible to repay them...

The sudden embrace had caused a small 'uuf!' noise to come out of him, as if pressing him activated a reaction akin to a squeaker toy. His former rigidity depleted as he relaxed under the contact, and a soft smile came across his face. He looked up at the two. ”Oh! Um... I'm not very interesting, so...” The things he liked to do... Well, he was a secretive kid. He never really shared his interests, in fear of judgement. ”I just like trying new things.” He hoped that was a good enough answer. </div>
