GeminiFourth Oneshots!

Tell me if you want me to stop

It was one of those days where everything felt a little off. Gemini had been buried under work all morning, his mind spinning with deadlines, and he just wanted a few minutes of peace. When he finally finished his work, he slumped down onto the couch with a frustrated sigh, rubbing his temples.

Fourth, who had been quietly reading on the other side of the room, glanced up from his book, noticing the sudden slump in Gemini's posture. He put the book down, his eyes softening with concern.

"Hey, you okay?" Fourth asked, standing up and walking over to where Gemini was.

Gemini groaned, not even lifting his head. "I'm fine. Just tired, I guess."

Fourth didn't buy it. He knew Gemini's usual confident energy, and right now, that wasn't what he was seeing. He knelt down in front of him, gently lifting Gemini's chin with a finger so their eyes met.

"You've been pushing yourself too hard," Fourth said softly, his voice full of warmth. "You need to relax."

Gemini felt a flicker of annoyance at the thought of taking a break, but something about Fourth's caring gaze made him want to let go of the tension for once. He let out a quiet sigh, realizing that maybe Fourth was right.

"Yeah, yeah... maybe," Gemini muttered, leaning back into the couch. His fingers brushed against Fourth's hand, and without thinking, he grabbed it, tugging him closer.

Fourth gave a small, surprised laugh as he sat next to Gemini. "You want me to help you relax, huh?"

Gemini let out a half-laugh, half-sigh, nodding. "You're the only one I'll let boss me around right now."

With a soft smile, Fourth carefully moved to sit behind Gemini, gently pulling his shoulders back so that Gemini was leaning against him. He started to slowly rub Gemini's back, his hands moving with ease over the tense muscles.

"How's that?" Fourth asked, his voice quiet but full of concern.

Gemini's eyes fluttered closed at the touch, the tension slowly melting away from his body. "Mmm... better. You're good at this," he murmured, his voice sounding a little lighter.

Fourth chuckled softly. "I've learned from the best." He shifted closer, adjusting his position so he could reach Gemini's shoulders more comfortably. "Just relax, okay? Let me work out those knots for you."

Gemini let out a quiet hum of agreement, his back slightly arching as he allowed Fourth to work on him. Fourth's fingers pressed firmly against the muscles at the top of his back, rubbing in slow, steady circles. Each movement was deliberate, the pressure just enough to start loosening up the tightness in Gemini's body. Gemini felt a sense of relief he hadn't realized he was craving.

"You've got some serious tension here," Fourth noted, his voice a gentle mix of amusement and concern as he worked his thumbs into the back of Gemini's neck, where the most tension seemed to reside. "You really need to take it easy sometimes."

Gemini grunted, shifting his shoulders a bit to let Fourth work deeper. "Yeah, I guess I don't exactly know how to chill out," he muttered, his voice a little rough.

"Good thing I'm here to remind you, then," Fourth teased, his hands moving lower, sliding across the muscles along Gemini's spine. He was careful with his touch, making sure to apply just the right amount of pressure to avoid making things worse. He kneaded the muscles in slow, steady motions, feeling Gemini's body gradually relaxing under his hands.

Gemini's breath slowed as the massage worked its magic. The tension he'd been carrying all day started to dissipate, and for the first time in hours, he could feel his body fully unwinding. It was such a relief that he felt a small smile tugging at the corner of his lips.
