Mare came walking out of the bathroom after having changed in one of Mad's sets of pj's. The idea of Mare sleeping at Mad's was sudden, and Mare didn't really bother going back home to get stuff he needed, also because he didn't want to talk with Skelly or Phantom. They'd just tease him about sleeping at his partner's house and with their minds being kind of dirty, it's not as fun to talk with them this and the next three days. But Mad didn't mind letting Mare borrow his stuff, with Mad keeping the thought of the clothes smelling like Mare by himself.

The pajamas were simple and plain, though. The t-shirt had a small v-neck and was black, and the pants that were a bit big and a bit loose around Mare's hips were dark gray. Nothing special to anything.

"I gotta be honest." Mad said when he saw Mare walk over to him, sitting back down on the couch in the living room, next to his boyfriend. "You look pretty cute in my clothes."

"Just because your clothes barely fit me doesn't give you the right to call me cute." Mare argued with the smallest bit of blush on his cheeks.

"But you are." Mad replied with, enjoying the small bit of teasing he did.

"Just go to bed. I'll see you again in the morning." Mare said.

Mad stood up from the couch before turning back around to face Mare again. "You're not sleeping upstairs with me?"

That question made the blush on Mare's face worsen. "Are you comfortable with that?"

"I don't mind, in all honesty. But if you don't want t-"

"No, no! I am fine with that, too!" Mare interrupted Mad, standing up from the couch as well. "I just didn't know if you were."

"Well, I am ready for that part." Mad shrugged his shoulders. "So why don't you come upstairs with me?" He said in a bit of a flirty tone, smirking a little.

"Don't say stuff in that way, and especially do not look at me like that when you do so." Mare scolded him as he walked past him to go upstairs.

"Why-" Mad almost asked the full question as he followed his boyfriend up the staircase, before realizing why Mare had said that. A small, light tint of blush appeared on his face. "Oh."

Not too long later, the both of them laid in Mad's bed, lights in the entire house switched off to show that the life in the house had chosen to take a bit of rest.

Mare had his back turned to Mad, but he couldn't get to sleep. Turning around, he saw that Mad had his back turned to him, as well. Mad didn't snore or anything, and from embarrassing stories Matthew had once told him, he knew Mad did snore in his sleep. So he wasn't asleep, either.

"Mad?" Mare asked in a whisper tone, just in case the man did sleep right now.

But Mad was quick to turn around, the opened eyes of both men meeting, and Mad just now realized that his boyfriend had a really thin line of dark purple around his pupil. It glowed in the dark, but it was really dim.

"What is it?" He asked back in the same voice volume.

"I uh... Can't exactly sleep."

Mad smiled just a bit at how Mare looked down at the mattress, seeming a bit ashamed of saying that. He probably felt a bit like a child, saying that out loud.
"Neither can I." Mad said, making Mare look back up, into his eyes.

Mare nodded slightly, silence falling over the couple that just stared at each other in the darkness of the night. Though, he watched intently as Mad scooted just a tad closer to him, and ran a hand through his hair gently. Mare just let him do so. It felt nice.

In the silence, Mad's eyes flicked from Mare's hair to his lips that he could see very faintly. He didn't know why, but he just got the biggest urge to plant his lips on the other's. He moved with his head just a bit closer to Mare's. And as if Mare knew what he wanted, he was met by lips being pressed on his for a short moment.
Mad stopped running his hand through Mare's hair, and slowly pulled both his hand and his face back, staring right into Mare's eyes. He leaned up, making the other look up at him, and he dipped his head down for a more passionate, longer lasting kiss. He was happy to know and feel that Mare returned the kiss. He then felt hand slowly slide up to grab a soft hold on his shoulders, making everything in this moment just a bit more intimate.
Without thinking too much, Mad slowly stopped kissing Mare's lips and moved down to his jawline, leaving soft kisses as he moved down.

"Mad~" Mare groaned when he felt the other's lips reach his neck.

Mad quickly backed off, an alarm ringing in his head when he realized what he had been doing. His face flushed, his cheeks turning red, mostly from embarrassment.
"Shit- I'm sorry!" He said, wanting to back off more, but couldn't as Mare still held his shoulders.

"N-No, it's fine."

Mad was surprised by that response. If he focused well enough on Mare's face, he could see that his face was red, too. But probably not from embarrassment, unlike Mad.

"But... I thought you weren't ready for this kind of intimacy yet?" Mad asked, looking down at his partner with a small frown of confusion on his face.

"I told Skelly that purely so he and Phantom would stop teasing and pushing me so much when it comes to that topic." Mare explained, slowly rubbing Mad's shoulders, but not letting go of them. "But we can..... always try." He mumbled out, but then quickly added: "If you want to! Only if you want to."

Mad's face expression changed to a soft smile, before he kissed Mare once again. It was a short, but loving kiss.
"I would love to, actually."

Even though it was quite dark, it was light enough for Mad to catch the smile on Mare's face.
Mad moved even closer to Mare than he already was, and captured his lips in a deep, passionate kiss once again.
