Beautiful Carlos //One Shot//

Part 3

// A/N: Warning: Lots of Fluff. That's all!//
Cecil? Are you awake?" a familiar voice called out from outside the room. The door opened, revealing Carlos on the other side, who stepped into the room. Cecil's momentary panic was eased at the sight of the scientist. Carlos, with an unreadable expression on his face, briskly walked up to Cecil and pulled him into a tight embrace.
"Thank you," he murmured into Cecil's shoulder.
The other man's face broke out into a grin. "It was my pleasure," he declared.
Carlos suddenly broke away from the embrace, and looked into Cecil's eyes, cupping his face as he did so. "I love you, Cecil," the scientist suddenly said. Cecil, unable to hold the strong gaze, looked downward at the floor.
Carlos frowned. "What is it?"
"I missed you," Cecil stated simply.
A look of realization spread across Carlos' face. "I'm sorry, Cecil. City council needed extra research done, and since writing utensils are banned, reporting such information was difficult to say the least," he said sadly, "but I thought of you the whole time. It warmed my heart to hear your voice on the radio. It was as if you were there with me."
Cecil's eyes lit up with hope. "R-really?"
Carlos put a finger under Cecil's chin and gently tilted his face up toward him. The scientist leaned in a bit, before saying, "Yes," and gently pressing his lips to Cecil's.
"Mph!" Cecil exclaimed, but didn't break the kiss. His heart was soaring inside of his chest. He slowly lifted one hand and rested it on Carlos' cheek as he pulled the scientist closer. Carlos smiled into the kiss, running his fingers through Cecil's hair once before slowly pulling away. The two stared at each other, laughed, and put their foreheads together. Cecil was practically floating from the immense level of happiness inside of him. He leaned in to kiss Carlos again, but was interrupted by his phone buzzing in his pocket. He gave the scientist an apologetic look before answering it. It was Dana, or Dana's double, who was calling to tell him that due to some problems with management, today's show had been cancelled. Cecil thanked her, hung up, and grinned at Carlos as he told him the good news.
They had the whole day to themselves.
