Uncover | Sebastian Stan

Fabian turns his head, watching his husband set up his iPad on the coffee table, chuckling at the mildly lost and confused look on the Romanian's face. He turns off his phone, leaving it on the sofa cushion as he levers himself into a sitting position, putting his foot to the floor before pushing himself to a standing position and hopping the short distance to the other couch.

"What are you up to that's got you looking like a lost puppy?"

Sebastian nudges his shoulder with his own. "I don't look like that. I was going to go live on Instagram so I want to get the placement right. Are you going to join me or go back over there?"

Fabian shrugs, fiddling with his wedding ring that he's actually wearing on his finger today. "They're your fans. They're going to be watching to see you since you doing a livestream is as mythical as a unicorn."

Sebastian sticks his tongue out at his husband in response to the teasing remark before leaning over and kissing him firmly. "I love you and I know that my followers like seeing you around too."

Fabian hums, pulling his husband closer and kissing him back, just as firmly, teasing the other man's bottom lip and pulling away just as Sebastian goes to deepen it. "Get on with your livestream and I'll think about it. I should probably put a shirt on anyway."

Sebastian groans, running his palm down his husband's chest and splaying his fingers over the younger male's abs. "I like you like this. I get an amazing view and free access if I want to feel it too."

Fabian chuckles, kissing the corner of Sebastian's lips before getting back up and hopping back over to the other couch, collecting his crutches from where they are leaning against the side table next to it, before using them to make his way to their bedroom to find a shirt.

"Don't forget you have your ring on," Fabian calls over his shoulder as he reaches the bedroom door, hearing Sebastian confirm that he heard him.

Fabian pulls on a tank-top, taking the ring off his finger but pausing before he puts it on its usual chain, sitting on the edge of the bed and staring at it for a moment. The only people who don't know about them being married are Sebastian's castmates and both of their followers. Their families, Sebastian's management and his PR have known pretty much from the beginning, and the latter two have neither pushed them to hide nor be open about it, instead, allowing them to come out with the truth in their own time.

Fabian shakes off his thoughts as he hears talking in the other room, lacing the chain through the ring and putting it back around his neck. He gets up, making his way back to the living room to join Sebastian, though, he stays on the other couch, for now, watching his husband.

"Hey, everyone," Sebastian waves at the camera before reading some of the comments coming through. "'You actually know how to livestream?' I do, I just don't really do it."

Fabian watches for a couple of minutes as Sebastian interacts with his fans, answering as many questions as he can catch sight of in the fast-paced comments section. Sebastian glances towards him occasionally, rolling his eyes with a laugh at one point when Fabian shows him the livestream pulled up on his own phone.

"'How's filming?' It's been going okay - the Russo's have been really supportive and have offered multiple times for me to take time off to help Fabian but I think we've been doing okay with me working as needed." Seb shrugs as Fabian nods along to himself.

He already knows all about Sebastian being offered time off but not taking it. It's not about not wanting to help Fabian, it's more that it's not needed. Fabian manages pretty well on his own, plus it gives them bursts of time away from each other so they don't drive the other mad. It just works for them.
