[ yawns and stretches as he sits on the edge of the bed, his back to the female who is slowly starting to get dressed. flops backwards to peer up at her, giving some snide remark before she pops him on the nose with a hand in retribution. forgoes the shirt he was reaching for, instead rolling off the mattress to playfully plead with her to stay for a few more hours, though the joke is already lost once she steps into the bathroom to fix her hair.

grins a bit at that but dutifully moves out of her way, making a beeline back to his bedroom. lazily scratches at his already-frizzy hair as he leans against the doorway, not paying much attention to anything in particular. eventually his expression grows dimmer, eyes going up to the ceiling before they narrow slightly. finds himself unable to throw away the feeling of uneasiness that nestles into the pit of his stomach, almost as if something terrible had happened without him knowing. ]

[ nudges that hand with his head, giving a few whimper-like sounds. ]

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ continues to pet at him gently. then tugs tony's head down a little so that he can connect their foreheads. ]

Don't worry. You're still loved.

[sexymajor.livejournal.com]

[ still wears a pitiful expression though it's slowly letting up with the shift in contact. ]

Really...?

[bawkmajor.livejournal.com]

Always.

...

[ smiles and leans in to press the side of his face against anthony's unbruised one, nuzzling in to murmur into the shell of an ear: ]

Then I'll be loyal to the end.

[sexymajor.livejournal.com]

[ doesn't stay too long, however, instead moving the plate onto the coffee table. scoots down the couch a bit, wiggling until his head can make contact with anthony's lap. just lies there, looking rather happy. ]

[bawkmajor.livejournal.com]

[ stiffens, though mostly out of habit. then relaxes as he lifts a hand to cover tony's eyes soon afterward. his expression then twists a little into something more pathetic before he takes a breath to lean forward, pressing his own forehead against that hand. speaks softly. ]

I need a favour.

[sexymajor.livejournal.com]

[ wants to flail a bit in surprise but thankfully he doesn't jerk, simply feeling a little off at the change of pace. quirks a small smile nonetheless, his usual expression of choice. voice is light and friendly despite feeling a peculiar nagging feeling in the back of his mind. ]

Yeah?

[bawkmajor.livejournal.com]

[ voice hitches a little. ]

. . . Protect her. I know coddling doesn't solve things, but I. . . even still. As long as she needs.

[cawmajor.livejournal.com]

[ freezes. silently debates on a few things when he hears that hitch in his words, making him slowly push the hand away from his face. shifts to balance himself on his elbow, turning to face his companion, the concern going deeper than his expression can fully portray. ]

... Anthony. What happened?

[bawkmajor.livejournal.com]

[ shrugs a little. ]

I got fired?

[ a hurt expression flickers over his face. ]

Don't--

[cawmajor.livejournal.com]

[ & then sits up within the pause, turning to face him fully again. opens his mouth, closes it. bows his head a bit, feeling his resolve finally crumble. looks away before inhaling, exhaling. closes his eyes and nods. ]

... I will, then.

[ swallows thickly when he sees that hurt on tony's face, making him lift his hands in an instinctive need to comfort. cups at his face like he's done before, not bothering to stop the next words from spilling out, feeling safe in the knowledge that things will be okay in the ways that matter most even despite this. ]

Tony.

[bawkmajor.livejournal.com]

[ straightens his back so that he's at a better height for what he's about to do next. only hesitates for just a second to push aside the remains of his logic. ]

This is a bad idea. So forget about this tomorrow. [ leans in to kiss him, a long press of lips. then draws back & murmurs: ] Thanks.

[sexymajor.livejournal.com]

[ looks mildly surprised in the duration of the kiss, thrown slightly off-guard at anthony's aggressive behavior. worries for a split-second, wondering if he should even be worried (the look on his face confirmed enough already) before he mentally shakes it off, replacing it with a soft smile when the kiss comes to a close. ]

Why would I want to forget it? I don't mind at all. [ lifts a hand, stroking his face once with the back of it. ] You have nothing to worry about. It's our secret.

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ nods once & leans away from the touch, resting his back against the armrest again. seems to be calmer again, if just a little tired. motions to the plate. ]

Done?

[sexymajor.livejournal.com]

Nope. [ snatches the sandwich, munching on it. ] Don't want to put something that you put your heart into to go to waste.

[sexymajor.livejournal.com]

Besides, you make the best sandwiches ever ever ever. Yeah?

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ rests his head against the couch as he watches tony eat. ]

It's an evolving art.

[sexymajor.livejournal.com]

[ keeps on eating, focused mainly on that while absently reaching over to ruffles anthony's hair lightly. ]

Guess you'll be the woman of the house once you get married.

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ bumps that hand affectionately, but draws back after a moment once again, shifting awkwardly. ]

Cooking the extra special bacon.

[sexymajor.livejournal.com]

[ obediently removes the hand, pressing it against the couch's cushion to lean against it a bit. ]

Sounds delicious.

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

Opinion's void. You're not picky.

[sexymajor.livejournal.com]

[ eats the last of his sandwich, giving a shrug. ]

Eh. What can I say, a boy gets hungry.
