Intrulogical One Shots

"Overworked"

(TW:  None)

Logan was struggling to stay awake. He had stayed up much too late the previous night working on a project. He was in the middle of a conversation with his friends Roman and Patton. Also with him was his boyfriend, Remus. They were all discussing one of their favorite movies: 'Just Like Heaven'.

"I'm not saying that Logan is exactly like Elizabeth Masterson! I'm just saying that there's definitely some similarities between them." Roman said, holding his hands up defensively.

"Explain." Logan prompted. The more he could get everyone else to talk, the less he would have to.

While Roman explained the parallels between Dr. Masterson and Logan, the latter began to nod off a little. Logan's head was beginning to droop, and he kept jerking it back upright. His eyelids were feeling heavier. It was getting much harder to keep consciousness. Of course, Remus noticed. He leaned over and whispered in his sleepy boyfriend's ear.

"If you need it, I've heard that a shoulder can make a nice pillow."

Logan nodded and timidly laid his head on Remus's shoulder. He had to admit it was much more comfortable than trying (and failing) to keep his own head up. His strained eyelids finally fluttered shut and Logan let himself doze off.

"... and besides the whole workaholic thing, they both claimed to be opposed to the idea of love but ended up finding someone." Roman concluded. He had been so wrapped up in his argument that he hadn't noticed Logan and Remus's exchange.

Though he definitely noticed Logan's new position now. Patton also noticed it and was overwhelmed with cuteness overload.

"Awwwwww!" Patton gushed.

"Shhhh!" Remus shushed him. "Lo-Lo's sleeping." He whispered.  Patton clapped his hands over his mouth to be quiet.

"Are we supposed to just stop our conversations?" Roman said.

"No. Just keep sorta quiet." Remus smirked. Frustrated, Roman huffed loudly, causing Logan to shift in his spot. Remus shot Roman a dirty look and helped adjust Logan into a more comfortable position. Logan was curled up on his side, leaning against Remus's arm. Patton promptly found a blanket and draped it over his sleeping friend.

While Patton and Roman started up a new conversation, Remus ran his fingers through his sweetheart's hair, enjoying the drowsy snuggles. When he spotted a small smile on the unconscious Logan's face, his heart melted. Remus had always had the desire to damage things. For once, he had the strong desire to protect something.

And he was confident that he would.
