"Adrian..." I croon to the sweet squirming angel in my lap as he tries to wiggle away from me. He's all giggles and bright red cheeks as he struggles to pull himself out of my lap.
"Silas! You have to let go!" I know I need to... But his giggles... And the snuggling... I just want him in my lap as long as possible all cozy and safe, "Silas, I really need to... I need to pee!"
I groan making more giggles bubble from his pouty lips with my, "No you don't!" Paired with an overly enthusiastic nuzzle into the crook of his delicious neck to prolong our contact as long as possible, upset with his bladder for driving us apart.
Yes, we had been tangled up for hours, the fire slowly dying and sputtering as the sunset gifts us a final kiss goodbye...But it still hasn't been long enough. I want to hold him here forever entangled in a deeply heated snuggle...the only thing that I would change is the amount of clothing still on his tantalizingly soft body.
"Yes, I do...But I'll be right back..." A soft hand pulls my face out of his shoulder and guides me until his lips are only a hairsbreadth away from mine, glossy and kiss swollen, ready and begging to be bitten and nibbled on...
...
Adrian
....
Silas dives into my lips like he thinks I'm a swimming pool and for a split second it manages to make me forget that I do, in fact, have to relieve myself before my bladder explodes. All it takes is a single twinge and I pull away, his eyes the hypnotically vibrant hazel of his wolf when they snap open, tracking my lips with predator precision as I backtrack.
His hand finds my cheek and he tries to pull me back, only stopping when I press my palms flat against his sculpted chest, "Please..."
My mate gasps like I've hit him when I let my eyes meet his only for the single moment the word echoes off my lips, his wolf staring at me only a moment longer before fading back into the background of Silas's consciousness.
I don't let my eyes linger long enough to see his eyes fade back to their human brown, but I don't need to. Neither side of my gentle alpha scares me...His wolf only seems content to watch for the moment instead of engaging and that's just fine with me.
"Maybe I can come in with you?"
....
Silas
....
Adrian doesn't meet my eyes again, but he doesn't have to. With the way his eyes pop wide open while his cheeks roar to life with a mouth-watering flush I know before he even gives the panicked shake of his head that he's still not ready to be less body shy in front of me.
I pull him tight against me for a moment before unwinding my arms from around his waist, releasing him to empty his bladder at will.
It hurts when he pulls himself out of my lap. Physically hurts. I know I'm not the only one who feels it when my sweet boy wraps his arms around himself, his face that of an outcasted angel. Watching him in his sweet hesitation...still, no shirt on and all of his marble tone skin rosey turns my mouth bone dry in my need to have him back in my arms as soon as possible...
His first few steps away from me are timid, almost tripling over the blanket that had been abandoned only about an hour into this wonderful cuddle session he had initiated, but he does slowly inch his way towards the bathroom...
My sweet boy...
"Promise you'll be quick?" I barely recognize my voice with how calm and quiet it is, not needing to be loud to catch his rapt attention.
"I...I'll only be a minute..." He hugs himself tighter, running his hands up and down his own sides mimicking the soothing motion I had been rubbing all over his skin.

Adrian

Being in the bathroom all by myself feels wrong as soon as the door is shut behind me, but I don't have time to linger on the lack of affection happening at the moment due to having to do a jig to the toilet to make it in time. Silas had delayed me almost past the point of no return... But I can only blame myself having waited so long to even admit it to myself that I needed to break our intimate embrace to make a break for the bathroom
Relief is like a tidal wave as I finish up and tuck myself away, flushing before turning to the sink to wash my hands while letting my eyes finally explore our master bathroom. I had been too anxious earlier to really let myself see the room when I was changing... The after-image of Silas's beautiful body had been burned into my corneas leaving me blind the first go-round in here.
Everything has the same rustic fairytale charm as both the kitchen and the front of the house... Nothing necessarily is old except for the big, beautiful claw foot tub resting opposite the sink
It doesn't look like Silas uses it often, but it's clean and well taken care of, it's ornate bronze handles polished and gleaming, the deep porcelain basin without a single speck of dust... In fact, nothing was dusty... Nothing was dirty.
My handsome mate seemed to like keeping our home clean and tidy and it worries me because while I'm not a slob... It's sometimes hard to keep books put away on shelves... I just get so caught up in the words printed on each page that stacks seem to grow like mushrooms around my favorite cozy spots.
All I can try and do it keep my books in their designated spaces and control the amount of dust that builds upon the shelves.
I can do that. I will do that-
Before I can embed my new mantra about keeping things clean for Silas into my soul a knock sounds on the outside of the door and makes me jump. I shut the water off and take my wet palms over the outside of my pajama pants before letting the door swing open to reveal Silas with a sheepish smile on his handsome face.
He doesn't say a word, just wraps me in a quick hug before shuffling me out the door and closing it behind me, still trapped on the other side, "My turn."
