hasaknightjob: Steven awake (Steven awake)
[personal profile] hasaknightjob
The children had been sent back to their real parents, safe and sound. After which Steven and Llewellyn went back home to clean up the detritus that had accumulated over a three day weekend with little ones. Amazing how much of it there could be considering there were no toys or other child specific things. But snacks, reading books, drawing pictures, playing tag, building a blanket fort - it all added up.

There'd been no real plans for the day. Normally Steven and Llewellyn did their own things on Mondays, but the children had taken priority. Likewise normally Tuesday was Marc's day, with him getting up early to go to the gym. But once the children were gone Steven felt an ache at their lack that, while no where near the pain Marc would have felt at being around their presence, was still enough that Steven asked Llewellyn to stay the night and be there in the morning.

Which was why come Tuesday morning Steven was in bed with his beau, awake far earlier than he usually was but that was also because he'd slept very little to begin with thanks to all the thoughts and feelings running through him.

Llewellyn hadn't gotten much sleep either. Whether from his own emotions about having children over the weekend or from Steven not getting much rest Steven wasn't sure. Regardless they'd both been quiet, most likely both with the urge to let the other rest even if they couldn't.

Thus there was Steven Tuesday morning, staring up at the ceiling again, and debating if he should risk getting up and putting the kettle on for tea or if he should keep still on the odd chance Llewellyn wasn't awake right now.

His eyes were closed, and, in a reversal of how they frequently ended up, his head was pillowed on Steven’s chest.

That sigh, though, was not the sigh of someone who was at all asleep.

The problem was after three days of visiting little ones, the quiet was- quite frankly, a little too quiet.

Not that Watts knew the right words to break the silence. Instead, the hand that had been sprawled across Steven’s chest started lazily drawing random patterns across his beau’s skin.

“I could go for tea,” Watts admitted. Not that he was making a move to, well, move either.

“Only if you can be particularly quick about it.” As if making water boil faster was a power Steven possessed.

“I can’t ask you to do that,” Watts protested. Never mind the fact that over the last not-quite-two weeks he frequently had , but that had been with both of them up and about and Watts busy with something else in the kitchen.

“If you’re certain,” Watts said. He wondered if he ought to be the one volunteering to get tea and feed the cat, then but it occurred to him that perhaps Steven needed something to do in that moment.

“All right,” Watts said. “I can manage that.”

“It’s easy to see why you like it so,” Watts admitted with a tiny smile as he moved to allow Steven to get up.

Not quite to the point of being actually asleep, but eyes closed and in that sort of hazy in-between state.

Watts’s eyes cracked open nonetheless, and he made grabby hands in Steven’s general direction.

“Thank you,” Watts said. “But that’s not going to help warm the sheets back up.”

Well, it could, briefly, but that would be messy. And then cold once again.

“Much,” Watts said. He’d sit up in a moment so they could have their tea (and muffins, apparently) but he just wanted to take a moment to enjoy being snuggled up together.

"Hello, you," Watts replied. "Breakfast in bed, is it?"
