ochitashinigami | Eric's Apartment

[Eric purrs again, letting himself be pulled upwards.]

I'm really not so helpless I can't cross the room to the next one, you know.

[The rising makes him a little dizzy, and he won't be skipping and jumping, but he's all right to move.]

I know that but if you think I'm letting you out of my sight or arms reach you're a very mistaken man let me assure you.

[He's doing this as much for himself and his own needs as he is the certainty of Eric's safety. Maybe he needs that; to see and feel for himself that Eric was really okay. He slipped an arm around his waist and started for the bedroom.]

If I could I'd carry you in there but that's not about to happen.

I think I'll get well quite fast if I stay in your arm. [He leans down, kissing the top of Alan's head. The two head towards the bedroom.]

It would be a sight if you tried. No, I'm much bigger than you.

I certainly hope so. I will certainly do my best to take good care of you and be a suitable nurse. [He laughs softly at the kiss to his hair and rolls his eyes a bit.] At least no one will be waking you to take vitals every few minutes and you'll actually rest.

It would last for all of four seconds. I'd end u on the floor on my back wheezing like a squeaky toy. I'm going to leave all the carrying to you. Besides, you like carrying me around when I let you.

[Once they made it to the bedroom it'd be obvious Alan had fussed before he'd left - it was clean and straight as a pin. The bed turned down everything set aside neatly, a set of Eric's sleepers waiting at the foot of the bed and one Eric's bigger shirts on his side.]

[The thought of Alan wheezing sounds a little too familiar. His hold on tightens momentarily. He seems the room and smiles appreciatively.]

You've been busy.

[He blinks but curls his hand in Eric's shirt. He shouldn't have said that, he'll be more careful with his words. He doesn't want Eric to get upset.]

I wanted everything to be ready for when you came home so we could be bit lazy together.

[Eric flops down into the bed, wrecking the neat sheets. He smiles up at Alan. He holds up an arm to him.]

I think we can be quite lazy now.

[Oh Eric you ruin all his hard work. Have a sigh for that but he rolls his eyes.]

Nothing new for you, mister.

[His tone is teasing as he climbs into the bed, tucking his smaller frame tightly against Eric's side; his head on his chest. Like this he can hear the steady, sure beat of Eric's heart and it has a calming effect on him that all the tea in the world can duplicate.]

Let's just stay like this a while.

[Eric manages a light chuckle, petting the hair on the head that rests against his chest. He could stay this way forever.]

As long as you want...

[He smiles and clings close, his eyes drifting closed behind those glasses.]

Don't say that or I'll keep you like this forever. I suppose that might get a bit boring though wouldn't it? Just you and me laying here?

[Eric laughs quietly again.]

No. I don't think it would.

No? Why wouldn't it?

[He's sleepy but his curious side has come out besides he's too emotionally wired now that Eric is home finally; the high, the positive emotions have him fighting the sleep.]

Because you're here... resting against me...

[Eric's fading gently into sleep.]

I'll always be here. You're my favorite pillow after all.

[A smile and a little laugh, before he snuggles closer even if he's got half of his body draped over Eric clinging like he's afraid he'll be gone when he opens his eyes again.]

[Eric chuckles and begins to drift off.]

G'night, Love.

[Alan is sleepy and has no filter; he doesn't even blush. He presses a kiss to his shoulder and finally the urge to sleep takes over and he's out - his hold on Eric still tight]

I love you...

[He whispers as he nods off.]
