And Then He Smiled (Logicality)

Chapter 63 - Ready set...not yet

Time skip: 2 weeks after the court case for Demitri had finished. Demitri had lost parental rights and handed guardianship over to Logan whom had testified as a witness againest Demitri. Logan no longer needs his crutches anymore.

Blinking to the sunlight blinding Patton through the curtains that weren't closed closed properly the previous night. Breathing in the cold morning air, he closed his eyes again, snuggling into the nape of Logan's nape, avoiding the light.

"Mmmm," Logan mumbled as he slowly cracked his eyes open as Patton's warm breath seeped down the back out his neck. Gazing over his shoulder, Logan smiled before relaxing back into a comfortable position, dragging the duvet back on his body as Patton had hoarded it the previous night.

The faint sound of Patton's breathing allowed Logan to slowly reclose his eyes again as if he was actually tired.

"MmmHm," Patton grumbled as his own eyes refused to close as the light beamed in his eyes. Flopping back onto the tons of space he had gained from moving around at night, he pouted mumbling something about it being the weekend.

Rolling over, Logan watched as Patton damatically sighed. Chuckling lightly, Logan slowly sat up, shivering from the unusually cold morning contrasting the warm night from yesterday.

Opening a single eye, Patton eyed up Logan as he smiled dorkishly  "Go put on a shirt," he mumbled, his voice slurring together from just waking up.

Rolling his eyes, Logan took a sip of water from the bottle that he kept on the nightstand before taking some painkillers for his headaches. Rubbing his eyes clear, he grabbed his glasses and put them on the dip of his nose.

Patton seemed to have flopped his way over to Logan's lap. His messy hair spiked up from every spot on his scalp. Brushing it down with his fingers, it allowed Logan to see Patton's face easier. "...you're gorgeous mi amour," Logan whispered for his whole world to hear as his hand lay rest againest Patton's chest, his heartbeat felt as calm as the sea.

The smell of last nights lasagna radiated from Patton mouth as he breathed.

"I thought you wanted me to put a shirt on?" Logan asked, slightly amused by how Patton contradicted himself immediately after he said that.

Sitting up, Patton frowned, sitting crosslegged as he slittered across the ground for the shirt Logan had discarded onto the floor when it got too hot. Throwing it back to Logan, Patton folded the duvet back to the bottom of the bed before actually putting his glasses on.

"Do you want to go anywhere today? Just the two of us?" Patton asked as he lent back on a pillow as a glint of silver caught his eye.

Shrugging, Logan put on his shirt, knocking his glasses a bit, "I don't mind, it might be nice to get out after everything that's been going on," He agreed, "Roman can come over to babysit since Remus and Janus made up a while back," Logan suggested, bushing his hair out of his freckled face before looking back at Patton.

Nodding along, Patton listened intently as Logan started stating plans that they'd follow since Patton actually didn't have one.

The place that Logan had picked out was sort of fancy but was affordable since they didn't have anything they needed to buy lately.  They would have to wear something business casual so obviously Patton had to rob something from Logan's side of the wardrobe since he had nothing of the sort. The last suite he wore was in the job interview for the job he's currently in, even then, it was just a rental since he knew he'd never wear the suite again.

I guess today counted as a special occasion.

Stealing a simple baby blue button up shirt, black tie and blazer, Patton decided to just use the black pair of trousers that he already had. Tucking the shirt in, Patton then attempted to remeber how to tie a tie. With no luck, he decided he'd go without, though it'd look empty. To help that, Patton wore a plain, dark blue jumper under the blazer in place of the tie.

Cheaking himself out in the mirror, he decided that this looked good enough. Logan probably wouldn't remember what he would be wearing today anyways. Adjusting the blazer, Patton gave himself a reassuring smile.

Logan was in the shower; Patton to the opportunity to tuck the mini sword necklace into it's box so he'd be able to give it to him, and of course the ring. Can't propose without a ring. Well you can. Where was I going with this?

Brushing his hair so it's slightly less messy, Patton heard the front door open, it was probably Roman and Remus. Right on time for once as well, must be luck.

Barging into the room, Roman smirked as he threw himself across the room, landing on the bed, "Any special reason for this spontaneous dinner?" Roman's smirk didn't faulter throughout that entire sentence as he sat up.

Clearly, Roman hadn't thought about what he should wear because he was (probably) wearing the pjyamas he wore to bed last night. Though that's probably because he got a little too comfortable living here after Logan's accident. It was a simple plain white shirt with red short-sleeves and plaid red bottoms. These are the ones that he brought to match Remus, and to piss him off passive aggressively, so most likely Remus is wearing the same thing, but instead green.

Taking the small box out of his right pocket, Patton held it up so Roman could see, "Take a guess Ro," Patton said before slipping the box back into his pocket and patting down the blazer.

After picking up his jaw from the ground, Roman followed Patton into the living room where Remus orignally was, but was probably just upstairs with Janus talking about some random shit that crossed Remus' mind at any moment. Though, it does help sharing what he thinks rather than keeping it in, it just means the thoughts go away quicker and he can replace it with a memory of him and Janus together.

"Do you want a coffee or do you want to sleep tonight?" Patton asked Roman as Roman himself sat on the sofa the wrong way so he could look in Patton's direction. He even brought his own slippers.

Shrugging, Roman thought very shallowly for his descion, "I think I'll just have a tea," Roman told him, resting his chin on the back of the sofa as Yvette sat beside him, mimicing his actions.

"Can I have tea as well?" Yvette asked Patton as she leaned up a bit.

"Of course," Patton smiled as he filled up the kettle and turned it on for it to boil as Logan walked to their room in nothing but a towel, awkwardly waving at Roman as they accidentally met eyes as he walked across the corridor.

"Make sure you don't destory the house," Patton chuckled as their two kids squeezed both him and Logan into a bone-crushing hug. Patting there heads, Patton gently smiled as he managed to free his own hands so he could hug them back. However Logan just stood there, froze in place, but didn't pull away, rather just relaxed.

After the pair got freed from their kids, Logan ruffled both of their hair, making them both need to rebrush it in a bit, "Be good for Roman you too," Logan told them as Yvette clung to his waist with a soft hand on her shoulder.

Leaning down awkwardly, Logan met her eyes, "We can see if we can get some ice cream before we get back, then we can all watch a movie, is that good with you?" Logan said, his hand still lightly on her shoulder.

"Can you get chocolate?"

"Of course," Logan replied as Patton ran past all the things that needed to be done, and gave him a list for extra measures.

"Vanilla for me," Janus added in as he helped Logan to his feet.

Smirking, Logan messed up Janus' hair again, "Of course Janus,"
