Ant and Dec one shots pt 2

Shook Up

He couldn't shake the feeling of watching that man with the knife, of course he knew it was an act and the man was a professional but a part of the small presenter couldn't shake the feeling of 'what if'

Walking around backstage at Britain's got Talent it was hard to get his mind of that particular moment. Replaying the slow things in his mind, standing there with a weight around his neck, Ant there with a deck of cards, the whole theatre in stunned silence, Simons money making grin at the danger and most importantly, his heart thumping in his chest

"Decs? Hello?"

The noise went straight over his head as the small man placed his mug back on the side next to his partners, standing back in his position a hand made slight contact with Decs shoulder making the older man jump back slightly

"Woah, easy man..it's just me sweetheart" Ant spoke worriedly with concerned eyes as he looked down at his husband who was looking back at him with nothing but fear. Smiling unsurely Ant placed a strong arm on Decs shoulder to offer some form of support and strength as it seems he could be knocked over with the slightest movement

Looking at the hand on his shoulder Dec weakly smiled as he covered it with his own hand "I'm fine pet, just being daft" but the change in his eyes said different

Not pushing him any further Ant gently nodded his head and kissed Decs forehand as they got ready for the next act, he know Dec will tell him in time and not to rush him. Watching his husband from a slight distance Ant knew his mind was far from the auditions and just waited until they were done for the day

Wondering into the judges room after the auditions had finished Ant let Dec walk off over to the food that was laid out for them while he stood back just observing his older partner. Watching all the other judges fill the room Ant was becoming more concerned about the small Geordie as the knife throwing act seemed to really throw him off

"Take a picture, many would die for it" David smirked over the back of Ants shoulder looking directly to where the Geordie eyes where, which was the back of Declan. Chuckling softly in response ant made a quick jab to the comedians ribs in seek of revenge for sneaking up on him "...in all seriousness though, is he okay? Been off since the knife act"

"Honestly David I don't kna mate" Ant cluelessly sighed smiling in the mans direction almost searching for something but not knowing what "...I think how split second it could've been got to him ya kna? He hasn't said as much but I can just tell"

"Take him home then" David scolded him lightly hitting his shoulder "..when my Simon is caught up over something I usually take him home" he wickedly smirked and waved over in Simons direction

"Oh I'm sure you, does he mind?" Ant properly laughed watching Simon avoid contact with the comedian as he waved at him

"Of course he does, he minds anyone breathing in the same room as him but it most certainly doesn't stop me Anthony" David nonchalantly said shrugging his shoulders and winked in his direction

Shoulders shaking in laughter at David's response the slightly smaller man nodded and placed a hand on the tv judges side and placed a small peck on his cheek as a small thank you

"Anthony! I'm a happily taken man" David gasped jokingly

"No he's not, by all means take him" Simons voice echoed through the room making everyone erupt into laughter, including Dec who was silently eating some fruit from the table

Back home

Walking back through the warmth of the halls to their home Dec instantly felt safe again, not that he didn't feel safe at the auditions just that one act put him on edge

"What was up with you today Decs? Don't say nothing either, even David noticed"

Ants voice filled the shorter mans ears and made him still. He knew it was silly and pathetic and that's exactly why he didn't want to tell Ant but he knows Ants not going to stop until he's got the truth "so that's what you two were smirking about huh? Honestly it's stupid really pet"

Smiling softly as he glided across the floor as they stood there in the hall Ant shook his jacket of his shoulders and swung it over the banister of the stairs before taking Decs face in the inside of his palm "it threw you off for the rest of the day, it clearly wasn't stupid"

"It was the knife act alright, the one where he threw the knife at us, it just made me think ya know and it proper scared me man" Dec finally said giving into Ants caring and loving stare, bringing the older man forward by his neck Ant just hugged him tightly

"I knew that shook you up, scared me too man. What it make you think about" Ant softly spoke into Decs hair as they both stood there with their arms tightly around each other, light movement happened with Dec as he made his head comfy in Ants neck and light soft snores left his body, he had fallen asleep on Ant

"Come on you" Ant smiled bending down to hook an arm under Decs thighs and the other supportively around his back lifting him up the stairs and through to their bed room, gently placing Dec down on the bed he was still slightly awake and started making a move to get his trousers off while Ant took his shoes off for him and started to get undressed himself

Getting into the bed with just boxers on Ant was quickly accompanied by his shorter husband who was in the same bed attire, just boxers "Anth.."

"Yeah Decs" Ant quietly mumbled as Dec snuggled up to his side throwing one leg and arm over him and an arm went around Decs shoulders holding him close

"It made me think about how much I love you, because I do love you. So much"

"God I bloody hope so or this marriage is a sham Donnelly" Ant joked as he kissed the side of Decs head making them both laughed before slowly slipping into a deep sleep in each other's arms
