"On a date, I am in no danger of getting myself stabbed or shot, darling." Jim reasoned, beckoning Sebastian closer. "I mean, I’d only have your knife to worry about, surely? So, there’s no issue with us having a date once we’re happy with finding a nanny for them, right?" He mused, cocking his head to one side and smiling. "Just think about it."

"I never said that you were," Sebastian reminded him, rolling his eyes faintly before he moved his chair over in order to sit by the side of them, his fingers carding through Michael’s dark hair softly. "You’re quite welcome to come along and think about what you want to do, but you have to remember that it’s not going to happen until Alexis has settled into a regular pattern," He murmured. 

"Now you’re just teasing, pet." Jim pouted, tilting his head back and trying to kiss at Sebastian, while laughing low in the back of his throat. "So, what’s the deal? We’re not to have a date until you’re happy with the schedule that we’ve gotten Alex into? You know that you’re unlikely to be happy with it completely." He fell silent and pressed a firm hand to his stomach. "She’s killing me," he groaned.

"I'm good at teasing," He answered him, tilting his head down in order to press his lips against Jim's softly for a moment, a small smile beginning to form on the corners of his lips, kissing Michael's cheek when he made a small noise of complaint. "When we've got her into a reasonable schedule, then," He answered with a small roll of his eyes before rubbing Jim's stomach softly. "It'll be done with soon."

"No, I'm looking out for you. As per usual," He reminded the other with a small shake of his head, brushing off his jeans before he moved up in order to sit himself in his proper seat behind his desk, now that Jim had a hold of their son. "So no date nights for a few months. At least."

Leaving his phone on the floor beside himself in case Jim decided to message him again, he rubbed a hand along Michael’s back in order to aid him before the sound of Jim’s entrance made him look up, his brow arching faintly in surprise. “At least you’re here now,” Sebastian answered him honestly, clinging onto Michael when he started to squirm at the sight of Jim in the doorway.

"You’ll forgive me if I don’t join you on the floor, love." Jim answered, shrugging and lowering himself into the chair in front of the desk, and holding out his hands for Michael. "Alex is making things decidedly uncomfortable and I cannot wait until she’s here." He complained. "We need a date night, again, lover."

He watched Jim when he lowered himself into his chair opposite the desk, grunting at the still squirming Michael before he reached up in order ti pass their son onto Jim's lap in order to ensure that he would finally be content. The boy finally seemed to quieten down, fingers reaching up for purchase on Jim's clothes. "Not until Alexis is born and settled. So you can put a damper on those thoughts."

Sebastian didn’t offer him any form of response as he moved into the kitchen, pulling a drink of juice out of the fridge for Michael to have before making his way back up to his office where he had left Michael playing with his toys on the floor, being carefully guarded by the cub, Keelan. He’d leave it to Jim if he was going to come upstairs or not. 

Silence was heavy. Jim sighed and heaved himself up and forced himself up the stairs slowly but surely. He watched Sebastian into the office from his perch, and deliberated following him in there, instead, once up on the same floor, Jim headed directly for their suite and flopped down on the bed.  {SMS: My Love} I’m sorry. -Jx

"No, I’m not blackmailing you. Look, I don’t care any more. See Michael when you want to see him, I came down to get him a drink so I could go back upstairs and finish off some things whilst looking after him. I’m busy,” Sebastian said firmly, moving to get past Jim.

"You don’t care anymore?" Jim growled, his hand moving to the doorframe, blocking Sebastian’s path. "How about you give me a little time to calm down, then I shall be up and you and I can spend some time with Michael before we put him down for the night?" He reasoned calmly.

"No, I don't," He answered in a snap, eyes staring down at the short man as his fingers clenched into fists by his side, knowing he would have moved Jim out of the way mere months before. "Do whatever you want to. Come up when you're calm or don't. Whatever."

"And you have a son who you have barely seen today. I’m sure he’s wanted some attention other than mine, too."

"Yes, my son who has been kept occupied without me, all day. There’s no need to get pissy because I’ve not seen him. I will do. In my own time."

"Then you can do what you want Jim. In your own time. Because I have things to do and a son to look after. So I suppose I'll give you attention. In my own time."

"Fucking tease." Jim growled against his lover’s mouth, pulling back and sighing. "No. I hadn’t thought about what I wanted to eat, but you can do that thinking for me, and bring me something to eat, while I go and finish up a few things in the conference room?" He mused with a wicked grin.

"I'm the tease? You're such an arse, Jim," He snorted slightly as he did so, looking over at the other as he did so. "Mh, no. You can decide what you want to eat and when you've done that, I'll make it for you because you know how picky you are at the best of times," He answered him with a small smirk, glancing over at the other.

The Tiger's return. ||Mormor

Flopping down onto the bed, Jim crawled up to Sebastian’s side of the bed, and buried his face into the pillow, concealing his grin. “I give you all of six minutes, actually. You’ve got five minutes to move me from this spot, and then shower and change. I don’t think you’re going to do it.” Jim said, the challenge clear in his tone as he sat up smirking.

Sebastian looked over at him when he shifted over to his side of the bed, undoing his boots and kicking them off, a yawn escaping past his lips as he did so. "Mh, no. I'm going to shower and change first, then drag you out of my spot and fall asleep," Sebastian corrected him with a smile, leaning down to kiss his forehead gently before dragging himself in the direction of the bathroom.
