[Cute. He kisses his hand.]

Would you like me to?

... Not on our wedding. As much as I like showing you off, if you are going to wear a dress that's going to be the third outfit of the day.

For the night. With no one else to watch you but me.

I am so incredibly charmed. I will do my best not to disappoint.

[Breaking off a piece of donut to try to feed to him.]

In regards to the planning and the evening.

[ he'll let him, and though he blushes, he clearly enjoys it ]

As if you ever do. I'm sure I'll end up singing your praises for years to come.

You’ve already proven you are the better singer.

[If he was sitting across from him, he moves his chair next to him so he can lean on his shoulder comfortably.]

I know you say I make things lighter but the same is for you.

And what do I owe this confession to now?

It's been long overdue.

Besides, who else drives me around, listens to my worries, feeds me, and holds my hand.

[To which he does take his.]

I only need one.

[ he smiles at that, soft and gentle as he squeezes his hand ]

Not that I'm planning on giving my hand to anyone else.

Not even to a younger, surly version of myself.

Not even that.

[ He'll move so he can take his chin with his free hand, tipping it up as he leans in to kiss him on the lips ]

Caeli is an outlier. I'm more into older men.

Well if I can’t get him to join in activities. I’ll simply have to make specters of myself. You are rather delightful when overwhelmed.

[He kisses him back.]

I know. About Caeli. The unreasonable worry being on my end. But maybe if I continue to warm up to him the two of us could terrorize you.

I barely survived you and Lahabrea together I would not survive you and Caeli.

I simply meant to give you something to tease me about, if you needed the ammo.

But would you enjoy it?

. . . It would be a little awkward.

But obviously I would enjoy it.

[He squeezes his hand.]

An idea then. Perhaps it will come to fruition. Perhaps it will not.

But I am rather addicted to your happinesses, our contentment, my dawn.

Well. I don't need a spectator to be happy with you.

[ he's going to consider how shameless he wants to be for a while and then he decided to just go for it, getting up from his seat so he can go on Emet's lap instead, wrapping his arms around his neck ]

For example. I'm happy now. And I'll be even happier when we take another drive and I get to feel you against me.

[He shifts so he can have a lap full of Five and rests his arms low across his hips. He can’t help such a warm smile spreading across his face.]

Are you done eating then?

[ He'll take his time to kiss his cheek and then shakes his head ]

No. Feed me more.

[He laughs and fills up a forkful.]

Open up.

[ He'll open his mouth for him, taking the bite once he's done, and then he'll just do the same - reach for a fork so he can feed emet as well ]

We were supposed to share after all.

[He takes the bite, chewing slowly.]

Never would have I imagined this. Just being here with you is enough. I hope you are rather pleased with yourself.

[Moving around him to pick up his coffee.]

[ he laughs at that, amused at the comment ]

It is a little surprising. And I do blame you — I was never one for such domesticity before you came along.

Domesticity for you. Active for me. While I will never be quite as overachieving as the three of you, I have not doted on anyone for my personal pleasure for quite some time. While a small fracture of it is insecurity, the lion's share is truly just seeing you smile. To ease you. I know the same is reciprocated.

But you also bring out a physical passion I was not expecting. I almost regret saying as we started this part of our relationship that you were not one of the most beautiful people to gaze upon.

[He kisses his cheek.]

How wrong I was.

Well. Considering I was uncertain whether I'd care for that type of physicality myself, I'd say that was a surprise for both of us.

But maybe I should have gotten offended back then.

[ he's obviously joking, given how pleased he looks to hear Emet call him beautiful now. He gets off of him then, but offers him his hand ]

Can I keep you to myself for a little while more?

[He doesn't respond to the question immediately, but takes his hand when it is offered. He kneels just like he did when he proposed. He kisses his knuckles and looks up to meet his gaze.]

I love you.

[Then he rises and picks up his coffee cup downing the rest of it quickly before drawling out with dramatics and insincerity.]

I suppose.
