"Rise and shine, Buttercup." Tim smiles as he pulls the bedroom curtains open allowing the bright sunshine to fill the room.
"Oh, shut up and leave me the hell alone." Adam growls as he buries his face in his pillow.
"Awww, is my little turnip having a bad morning." Tim pouts as he sits down on the side of the bed.
Adam raises his head and manages to open one eye to glare at his husband, freshly showered wearing nothing but a towel and a cocky smile.
"Turnip? God, I hate you." Adam groans as he covers his head with the blanket to block out the sun.
Tim laughs loudly and he gets up and heads to the dresser to get him some boxers.
"No, you don't." Tim chuckles as he turns around with his boxers in his hand.
"Yes. I do." Adam replies from under the blanket.
"No. You don't." Tim says again as he drops the towel from around his waist.
Adam huffs as he throws the blanket back to uncover his head.
"Yes, I ..... Holy Sh*t." He eyes his husband's nude body.
"You were saying?" Tim asks, dropping the tone of his voice a couple of octaves while raising a brow.
"Oh, shut up." Adam says as he covers his head again. "You don't play fair."
"Oh? You wanna talk about playing fair?" Tim asks as he sits down on the bed to slip on his boxers. "Were you playing fair last night?" He looks over his shoulder at the blond.
Adam slowly pulls the covers down so he could peek out.
"God, I hate you." Adam says more quietly.
Tim could only see his husband's blue eyes peeking out but could tell that he was smiling.
"No, you don't." Tim laughs as he gets up and heads to the closet. "Get your lazy butt up. I'll buy you breakfast at Hattie's before we go to the clinic."
"It's not lazy. It's just that my butt hole...... never mind." Adam groans in pain as he sits up on the side of the bed.
"I'm sorry." Tim says after slipping on a tee shirt. He walks over and sits down next to Adam as he puts on his jeans. "I know I got a little rough last night."
"It's not your fault. I asked for it and you delivered." Adam smiles as he leans over and kisses his husband's cheek. "As always. Maybe a hot shower will ease the pain."
~~
"Maybe you should have the doctors look at you when we get to the clinic." Tim says as he helps Adam up the steps of the diner.
"Seriously?" Adam stops on the top step and looks at his husband as if he was crazy. "I'm not letting them examine my asshole."
"But what if I actually did hurt you?" Tim asks, his face full of worry.
"Sweetheart, you didn't rip me. It was just rough sex which you know I love. But I always pay for it the next morning." Adam smiles as he rubs his lover's cheek. "Now let's go eat."
They walk into the restaurant which was pretty empty. Only a couple of old Cajuns having breakfast before heading out to run their traps. Mark, Bob, and Hattie were sitting at a table having coffee and chatting.
"Well, good morning you two." Hattie smiles as she stands from her seat. "Coffee?"
"The biggest you got." Tim smiles and hugs the small lady before sitting down at the table with the other two Cajuns. "Oh, and we'll take two of your big breakfast platters."
"You got it, Sweetie." Hattie says, giving Adam a quick hug before heading to the kitchen.
"We heard about Austin. Is he gonna be okay?" Mark asks.
"The doc said he would probably be in pain for a few days and need to take it easy but he'll be fine." Tim answers as he lays his arm on the back of Adam's chair.
"They kept him at the clinic last night to keep an eye on him." Adam adds.
"We're going to go check on him after we eat. Hopefully, he'll be able to come home." Tim says as he sips his coffee.
"I've been bitten before. It definitely hurts." Bob says with a nod.
"Uh, Bob? You still hunt gators?" Tim asks.
"Full time. Why? You plan on getting back into it?" Bob asks.
"Yeah, Austin and I were talking about it before he got bit. There's a lot more money in it. But it's been years. I'm sure I'm pretty rusty at it." Tim answers.
"Well, while Austin is healing up, you can always go out with me and refresh your memory." Bob says.
"Sure, if you don't mind." Tim replies.
"Of course I don't mind." Bob smiles.
"You do it legally, right?" A concerned Adam asks causing Mark to chuckle.
Bob laughs and shakes his head as he reaches into the bib of his overalls and pulls out a weathered wallet.
"Believe it or not, Bayou Bob is totally legal to hunt gators." He smiles as he tosses his licenses to Adam.
"Just checking." Adam giggles as he hands the licenses back to the big man.
After eating a big breakfast, Tim and Adam head over to the clinic to check on Austin. As they walk in, Kelsey smiles at them from behind the desk.
"Pulling double duty, Kel?" Tim asks with a smile.
"Yeah, my sweet, caring husband thought he needed to give Jenika the day off to babysit." She answers with a smile.
"Sorry bout that." Tim smiles. "How's Austin this morning?"
"Being a pain in the butt." She says as she rolls her eyes.
"So he's back to normal?" Tim chuckles.
"He's complaining about everything. It's too cold. The bed is too hard. His breakfast was not hot enough." Kelsey says, shaking her head.
"Sounds like Austin." Adam laughs.
"Maybe we'll be able to take him off your hands." Tim says with a smile. He knew exactly how much of a pain his little brother could be.
"I sure hope so. Austin is like a little brother to me but he sure knows how to get under someone's skin." Kelsey says.
"Try telling me something I don't know." Tim chuckles as he and Adam head down the hall.
"Adam? Honey, are alright?" Kelsey asks when she notices the way he was walking.
"Uh, yeah. Yeah, I'm fine." Adam nods.
"I might have gotten a little ..... OWWW!" Tim dodges as he is smacked on the shoulder by his husband.
"Never mind. I don't want to know." Kelsey laughs and shakes her head at the couple.
"Have I told you that I hate you today?" Adam growls as he takes off down the hall.
"Yes, several times but I still don't believe you." Tim chuckles as he follows his pissed-off husband.
"Well. It's about time." Austin complains as Adam walks in with Tim following behind him with a slight smirk on his face.
"Don't you dare start!" Adam growls as he points a finger at the smaller Cajun causing his eyes to widen in shock. "I've had to put up with your smart ass brother's mouth all morning and I'll be damned if I put up with your smart ass too!"
"What the hell crawled up his ass?" Austin asks as he looks at his big brother.
"You don't even wanna know." Tim chuckles and shakes his head.
