Caelus remembers it as of it was yesterday. When they defeated Irontomb, causing amphoreus to die along with the scepter. But thankfully Cyrene was there to preserve all his friends within As I've Written.
And it was there that him and Phainon made a promise...Caelus will be waiting for him, for amphoreus to be reborn, they'll meet again, and envelope themselves in each other's love.
Caelus cups Phainon's cheek one last time, before they were finally separated for Aeons know how long....
.
.
Caelus was willing to wait, he truly was. But Dan Heng kept bringing up an important point, they have no idea when Amphoreus will return, it might take entire amber eras for all they know.
Dan Heng knew Caelus wanted a love life with an affectionate spouse and maybe adorable children as well. his wish would go in vain if Amphoreus is to be reborn after they're all long gone. He couldn't let that happen.
After countless attempts of persuasion, Caelus finally accepted. He let go of his promise... him and Dan Heng got closer over the years, he learned to love him, they fell in love and eventually got married.
Even though Caelus was happy, deep down he was full of guilt, he betrayed Phainon....but he tried to make himself feel better... finding comfort in the thought this is what Phainon would've wanted, for him to just be happy.
They might not ever meet again anyways....
But. It seems everyone has underestimated amphoreus a bit, as it's return was much faster than anticipated, mostly thanks to the help of the two geniuses that worked hard on recovering it.
So now here we are.
Phainon standing in the parlor car, facing the grey haired boy who promised to wait for him. A black haired infant cradled in his arms and a pretty ring wrapped around his finger.
To say he was shocked would be an understatement. His face was a canvas of horrified disbelief, trying to confirm what he's seeing is real.
He slowly made his way to Caelus, reaching out with shaky hands while his expression slowly turned into one of pure sadness "you promised..." The words came out as a whisper. He wasn't in the right state of mind to speak properly...
"... I'm sorry" Caelus looked down, shame consuming him from the inside out. He couldn't bring himself to look at Phainon, he knew what kind of face he was making, and he knew it was his fault.
They sat of the couch, where Caelus explained himself. he knew it didn't justify anything, but Phainon deserved an explanation, he deserved to know his thought process...
After he was done, he looked at Phainon who was silent for a moment, but then turned to face him with a small, pained smile "it's alright....I understand" he was definitely not satisfied with this outcome, but what could be do at this point.
"But hey, I also promised to take you visit all kinds of places, didn't you want that?" Caelus said, trying to break the tension.
"y-yeah you're right."
"Remember Belobog? it seems they're hosting a festival right now, would you like to go?" Caelus beamed, trying to cheer him up with a happier tone.
"alright. Let's do that"

Caelus wasted no time entrusting his child to his husband and the rest of the crew so he could take Phainon to Jarilo-VI.
Upon arrival they were greeted with the joyful festive vibes, beautiful decorations were put around the entire city. Street artists were all over the place, from illustrators to musicians. And the scent of fresh food was overwhelming.
The two went around watching performances, participating in games and activities, as well as trying different foods. But throughout all that, the suffocating awkwardness was still present.
Phainon tried to enjoy himself, the thrill of discovering a new world. but the bitterness raging in his heart was still nagging at him. While Caelus was nervous the whole time despite acting excited, every time he looked at Phainon and spotted the mild frustration on his face, a bead of sweat rolled down his forehead...
It was safe to say it was not as fun as it should've been.
Once the sun has set, they got themselves a room in the Goethe Hotel to stay the night.
Caelus came out of the shower sighing in satisfaction "ahhh~ that feels great, you should totally take a shower too, Phainon"
the white haired man was sitting at the edge of the bed, looking at the ground in silence. It was obvious what he was thinking about, the weight of what Caelus did was looming heavily over the both of them, and they couldn't deny its presence.
"I'm sorry..." Caelus apologized again, knowing no amount of 'sorrys' will fix his mistake.
"I trusted you" Phainon whispered under his breath...he then got up and gently grabbed Caelus by the arms, looking at him with heartbroken eyes
"You have no idea how much time I spent waiting, yearning for you in that confined space..." tears were now streaming down his cheeks "I would always dream of the day I'd meet you again, the day I'd touch and love you again...to see you've forsaken me? I feel so betrayed"
Caelus wanted to say something, but then Phainon's grip on his upper arms tightened. "You lied to me...I trusted you and it meant nothing to you" his tone shifted as well as his expression. The sadness was replaced by fury, and the way he looked at Caelus sent shivers down his spine.
"But that's alright" one of his hand then flew to Caelus' face, forcefully gripping it. "if you're not planning on fulfilling our promise. then I will"
Phainon then immediately smashed their lips together, forcing his tongue inside Caelus' mouth to invade every inch of it. the latter is horrified by the act and tried to get away, but Phainon's grip on him is way too strong.
Without breaking the kiss, Phainon then proceeded to untie the towel around Caelus' waist, exposing him to the cold air and rendering him completely bare.
Once he finally pulled back, he took a minute to admire Caelus' burning red face, tears threatening to fall from his eyes while his mouth is gaping, chin glistening with saliva.
He then guided him backward towards the bed, he seated himself on the edge, then pulled Caelus into his lap, his back pressed against his chest.
Caelus trembled, trying to resist. "Phainon, please... don't do this. This is wrong"
"Wrong?" Phainon laughed quietly "THIS. is wrong? not you promising to wait for me and marrying someone else? not you forgetting me so easily?"
Despite Caelus' protests, Phainon forced his legs apart, putting him on full display. His hands then roamed possessively over Caelus' chest, pinching and teasing his nipples until they hardened into sensitive peaks against his will
"Stop...please..." Caelus whimpered, but his body kept responding to the stimulation with unwanted arousal.
Phainon's hand slowly traveled downward, fingers tracing patterns on his inner thighs before reaching their destination "tell me Caelus. Tell me how many times he's been inside you" he asked as he slipped a finger inside his pussy, then another, scissoring them slightly.
"Look at this" phainon murmured in his ear "this hole seems a bit loose. Has Dan Heng been stretching you out often?"
"That's not...ah~" Caelus could only moan, his body arching despite his mind's resistance. Phainon worked his long, girthy fingers expertly, finding all the spots that made Caelus' breath hitch. "ngh...Phainon..." Caelus moaned, tears of shame and unwanted pleasure leaking from his eyes.
Just as Caelus felt himself approaching the edge, his inner walls clenching around Phainon's fingers, he abruptly withdrew them.
"No... please..." Caelus cried out in frustration, his body trembling with denial.
Phainon shifted their positions, lying Caelus on his back on the bed and pinning his hands over his head.
SMACK!
A harsh slap landed directly on Caelus' folds, making him yelp in pain and surprise. "This traitorous cunt needs to be punished".
"It took another man inside it" Phainon said, landing another sharp slap that left a reddening handprint. "It welcomed him" SMACK! "Even bore his child."
SMACK! SMACK! the blows continued until Caelus' skin was red and sensitive, each slap sent a jolt through his body. But despite the pain, he could feel a confusing heat building within him.
"It was supposed to wait for me" Phainon continued. "It was supposed to be mine alone"
Finally Phainon stopped the punishment, he unbuckled his belt and put Caelus back on his lap, placing his arms under Caelus' knees, folding him in half as he entered him in one swift thrust.
Caelus cried out at the sudden fullness, his protests dying in his throat as Phainon began to move. Each thrust pushed deeper than Dan Heng ever had, hitting places Caelus didn't even know existed.
"Tell me" Phainon demanded between thrusts " who's cock feels better? Mine or Dan Heng's"
Caelus couldn't form words, only gasps and moans as Phainon's cock stretched him to his limits. The overwhelming pleasure erased his resistance, body responding instinctively to the stimulation.
"Answer me." He commanded this time, driving into him harder
"Yours...yours" Caelus finally managed to gasp, his mind clouded with ecstasy. "Your cock feels...ngh...so much better"
Phainon growls triumphantly, he thrusts deep a few more times before spilling a massive load inside Caelus. The warmth filled him completely, marking him as Phainon's once again.
As they both catch their breath with Phainon's cock still buried Inside Caelus' cunt, he whispers "don't worry, I'll make sure to reclaim what belongs to me in no time".
