Tao didn't seem to know quite what to do with his hands so Chanyeol laced their fingers together and held them until Tao's face relaxed into a smile. Chanyeol leaned in closer and Tao let his hands go in favour of holding him around the waist. The size of Tao surprised him again and again. Chanyeol was tall and he almost never felt like a small person but Tao was big hands and broad shoulders and Chanyeol wanted to flip them over just to feel all that weight pressing down over him.

He didn't. He liked the way Tao looked up at him too much. He bent down until they were nose to nose. Tao leaned up for a kiss and Chanyeol pulled back. Not because he didn't want it but because the tension of the near thing made his heart pound and he wanted it to last just a little bit longer. Tao slid his hand up from his waist to Chanyeol's neck to pull him in and he sat back up.

"I should really be studying," Chanyeol said and started to get up.

"No, no, studying is stupid, you don't want to do that, you can't leave me here alone," Tao pouted and grabbed hold of his hip, pulling him down so their bodies were tight together. The realization that Tao could quite literally hold him down surprised him. Some of it must have shown on his face because one glance was all it took for Tao to release him. He put a flat palm just above the waistband of Chanyeol's jeans and looked up at him instead. Not holding on but still demanding.

Chanyeol laughed and Tao gave him an exaggerated expression, puppy dog eye and his lower lip pushed out. Another hand joined the one on his stomach and slid up his chest. Chanyeol sighed and gave up any plans of further teasing. He lay down over Tao and paused for just a moment, waiting for a smile before he closed the kiss.

Tao smiled and kissed back, catching Chanyeol's face between his hands and pulling him in. There was a hurried scrabble of hands as they tried to figure each other out but it fell away to slower kisses. Tao held on. He looped his arms around Chanyeol's back and kept him close. They cuddled together and Chanyeol let his hands wander through Tao's hair. If it was styled when he had arrived, it was going to be a nest by the time he left. Silk soft and a tangle of curls that dragged on Chanyeol's fingers as they wove through it. Tao's hands wandered down his back, up his legs, across his chest.

Chanyeol did not keep his phone in his pocket and he never had set it to vibrate so when Tao's went off he jumped. Tao caught him before he could fall off the couch. Tao went looking for his phone, sticking his hand into Chanyeol's pockets until he finally found the right one. He grimaced at the screen before answering it.
