Intrulogical One Shots

"Mall"

(TW:  I don't think there's any but if you spot something that warrants a warning, please let me know!)

 "No, you're going to stay in the car." Logan said firmly. He was seated in the driver's seat of the car, grabbing his bag from the floor behind him. Remus was complaining about Logan's decision to make him wait in the car.

"But Logiiiii! I'm going to burn to death in here. It's too hot!" Remus whined. Logan just rolled his eyes.

"Remus, I'm leaving the air running. You'll be perfectly fine."

"I'm going to die in here!" Remus declared, dramatically drooping his head to mimic a limp body. "I'm going to die alone, trapped in a cage of loneliness and despair." Logan couldn't help smiling a little at his over-the-top partner. He pressed a quick kiss on his cheek before opening the car door.

"I'll be back in twenty minutes." Logan said, getting out of the car and walking into the mall. He was looking for the Office Depot to buy printer ink. They had run out the previous night and Logan needed to print off a few more documents for work. Once he had found and purchased the printer ink, Logan walked back to the car. When he got close enough, he could see that the car was empty.

"Sh**." was all Logan said. He should have seen this coming. Leaving Remus alone in hindsight was a very bad idea. Luckily, they had spent enough time together to have an idea of where the other might go. Logan dropped off his printer ink in the car and power walked back into the mall like the gay he was.

The first place that Logan had thought Remus might go was Hot Topic, but he quickly deduced that Hot Topic was more Virgil's aesthetic. The Disney store? No, that was definitely where Roman would go. Build-A-Bear? Patton. Easily Patton. There was a chance that Remus had gone to the food court for a snack, but that didn't feel like the answer. At least not this time.

Then Logan realized. He sped up his pace and hurried towards the far end of the mall where Spencer's was. Sure enough, Remus was there. It was odd, though. Remus was at Spencer's, but he didn't have anything with him. He was just sitting on the floor beside the entrance.

"Remus!" Logan called. Remus perked up when he heard Logan's voice. He waved from the floor while Logan walked to him. "What are you doing?"

"Sitting on the floor."

"Of course. Why are you sitting on the floor?"

"I was waiting."

"What for?"

"For you to find me." Remus smirked, watching Logan's face flush pink.

"Let's go." Logan said, trying to cover his face. Remus stood up and held Logan by the hand. He kissed his hand, making Logan blush deeper. "You're too much sometimes."

"I know." Remus said proudly. The two shared a moment of just looking into each other's eyes. Then Remus took off running through the mall. "Race you to the car!"

Logan shook his head and laughed a little at the confused looks Remus had instilled in the other mall goers. He walked leisurely behind Remus, ignoring any looks of disapproval or distaste that came his way. All that mattered to Logan was that Remus was smiling.

Remus won the race by a long shot. He was already in the car and buckled up by the time Logan even arrived. Logan got into the car and started to fasten his seatbelt.

"I win." Remus said, leaning over to kiss Logan's cheek. He giggled softly and watched Logan finish fastening his seatbelt.

"It appears that I have won as well." Logan smirked.

"What? How?" Remus tilted his head, confused.

"You won the race to the car, and I won a physical display of affection. More specifically, contact between the side of my face and your lips." Logan explaining, smiling smugly. Remus chuckled.

"Whatever you say, specs."
