Bender and Fry got back to their apartment. Fry had been guiding Bender around by holding his hip with one hand and holding his hand with the other.
Fry opened the door and guided Bender towards their bed, which Bender promptly flopped down on.
"Can you flip me overrrr?" Bender whined through his pillow.
Fry rolled his eyes and turned him onto his back. "You don't have to be extra. You're not a kid with the bubonic plague." Fry joked.
"What's the boob atomic page?"
"Exactly."
Fry shrugged off his signiture red jacket and fell down onto the bed next to Bender. He started tracing his fingers around the outline of his chestplate, which made Bender steam up a bit.
"Y'know, I missed ya, dude..." Fry admitted. "I missed this. I love you too, ya trashcan."
Fry leaned in and pressed his lips against Benders mouth plate - like he'd done many times before - while Bender slowly crept his hands along Frys back, using his fingers to draw circles along his spine.
Frys body practically melted into Benders cold, metal cassis. Bender moved his free hand to the back of Frys head, and began gently running his fingers through Frys soft, orange hair.
"I wanna stay like this for awhile." Fry whispered to Bender.
"...We can." He murmured.
Fry pulled himself closer to Bender as he hugged him tighter.
"Goodnight, babe." Fry tiredly mumbled under his breath.
"'Night." Bender whispered casually.
Benders visor closed and his head rolled off to the side, as Fry slowly drifted off to sleep.
...
Bender was the first to wake up. He stretched and glanced down at the small, fleshy being cuddled up next to him. Bender stared wistfully at him.
"God, he's cute." He thought.
Bender snapped out of his daydream, though, when he saw the human toss around and sit up.
"Mornin', Bender." Fry smiled, "What time is it?"
Bender checked his internal clock. "7:05."
"Ah," Fry sounded. "We still have time to watch All My Circuits before work."
Fry lifted himself off the bed and rested his hand on Benders back. Bender looked at him curiously before he remembered he couldn't walk. Bender scooched himself around on the bed until his legs were hanging off the side of it.
Fry lowered his arm under Benders knees and hoisted him up, Bender curled up right next to his chest.
Bender let out a giggle, unusual for him. "I feel like a princess, meattube."
Fry smiled at him. "Well, then you're my princess, metalface."
Bender gently nudged his face away in feigned annoyance. "That was the sappiest thing I've ever heard. Now take me to the couch, peasant."
Fry chuckled and rolled his eyes. "Alright, my prince." Fry landed a kiss on Benders forehead, and his body temperature rose a little.
Fry put Bender down on the living room couch and turned on the TV. Fry waltzed into the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of beer for Bender, which he chugged down (along with the bottle itself) within 2 seconds.
"Thanks, I needed that."
"Is that a new record?"
"Nah, I've done faster."
All My Circuits was just starting. This episode was about how Monique found out that Calculons half-brothers half-sister was cheating on her boyfriend with Calculons pastors best friend.
They watch it while snuggling on the couch until they had to leave for work.
