"I think I saw you in my sleep, darling."

'Big Spoon or Little Spoon?' 

That happened to be one of the topics that stumbled onto the table during Creature Talk this week. As much as the boys struggled to get out of the question, it was a now enescapable discussion that had been tossed around since they became an official 'thing.' 

"Big spoon." Eddie answered without hesitation. He directed a bright grin, with half crescent moon eyes and a beaming emotion of affection towards his Russian lover. 

"Answer the fucking question Aleks." James, as well as the fans, pressed. 

After a few moments of uncalled-for humor and cracking inappropriate jokes, he ran his fingers through his hair and nodded, smirking slightly.

"Little spoon." He answered seriously this time.

Aleksandr looked at the older man who was at his side now, from the corner of his eyes, whilst trying not to blush or grin like a half-assed idiot. But the sides of their thighs pressed against the other and noses brisked as Eddie draped an arm over Aleks' shoulders and pulled him closer.

The older man's warmth filled Aleks as he woke up to Eddie's arms wrapped around his shoulders and their bare chests pressed against the other. His smaller body was cocooned within his lover's and he turned within the embrace, burying his face into the older's neck and leaving a trail of light kisses up his jawline until he stirred awake.

He smiled into the skin under his ear as the raven-haired man wimpered and the stubble brushed against his cheek. He pulled Aleks closer to him as his eyes fluttered open lightly and he mumbled with a sleepy tone in his voice. 

He pulled back and watched his lazy eyes peel open and his familiar grin welcomed him into a kiss as Aleks shuffled forward and closed the space between, breathing him in. 

"Morning," the older man said softly. 

He smiled back and then pulled them back into dark lover's waters, drowning him within another kiss slowly yet passionately. Pulling apart, the two were out of breath and Aleks rests his head against Eddie's shoulder. Messy hair stained with sweat from the night before glistened against his forehead and he connected his lips to Eddie's ear, biting onto thin skin.

"Good morning, you."

"I love you, Aleks," he says suddenly, causing the younger to attach his arms to his waist and move apart from the other man. He relaxed his hands on his hips and blinked with disbelief, as if he hadn't exactly heard him right.

"What, seriously?"

Eddie held his lower lip between his teeth and nodded quietly. He was scared that Aleks may have heard him wrong or that he shoved the wrong impression onto the lover, that his mind was playing tricks on him and that he had fucked up their relationship already. Maybe he scared Aleks away. He doesn't blame him.

He leaned down and pecked his lips once again, quickly this time, and smiled. "Really?"

And the same grin reappeared on Eddie's face as he turned against the smaller boy and nodded his head with no thought nor hesitation. "Really, really."

"You have no idea how long I've been waiting to hear you say that."

"I think I saw you in my dreams. You were stitching up the seams on every broken promise that your body couldn't keep. I think I saw you in my sleep."
