[One Month Later:]
It seemed like no time at all had passed, but a lot of time had passed all the same. Marshall and Cael had been living together for a month now, and they had spent a lot of time learning about each other and Cael just learning about life as a human in general. In that month, Marshall had sold his place in the city and moved all of his belongings -scarce as they were- to the two bedroom home on the beach, now a permanent resident of the home that had been in his family for generations. He had also gone back to work, but had requested that he only patrol around the beach and surrounding small communities, not wanting to patrol the inner city after the shootout. His boss understood and agreed, changing where Marshall worked permanently as well.
Marshall was happy to be at work again. Honestly, it made coming home to Cael - who he knew followed him on occasion - all the better.
And come home to Cael he did, every night. Just like tonight. Marshall yawned and stretched as he came in through the front door "Cael, I'm home! Where are you beautiful angel?" Marshall called out, smiling as he set his work bag and his keys, wallet, and duty belt on the table by the door. The past month had been filled with a lot of affection, too. They cuddled, a lot, and they were kissing, a lot, and getting better at kissing every day. They still had not had sex yet, and Marshall, as patient as he was, felt that he was going to explode internally if things didn't happen. He had no plans of rushing Cael into it, but he was hoping that it would happen soon. They had discussed it, and he understood Cael's hesitations, because Marshall had his own.
