YOU STILL MATTER !

【 @angercide​ 】:   “ happy birthday! How’s it feel baby? You’re one year older, and that means one year of spending our lives together.” the words sound from Connor’s chest as he sat himself into Rodrick’s lap, smiling as a ring decorated hand rose to cup at the other man cheek. Pressing a kiss to the others lips, with a smile against his lips. “ I love you.”            

》UNPROMPTED but it’s Rodrick’s bday.「 Accepting! 」

              A YEAR OLDER & ANOTHER DAY PASSED. Usually, it’d be spent partying until the brink of dawn at a friend’s home ( a small family - thing during the day, a friend thing during the night ), but things were different now. He had Connor & he knew how introverted his fiance was – besides, there was absolutely nothing wrong with staying in for one birthday, spending time with the one he loved the most ( Connor – he balanced Rodrick in a way that couldn’t really be described, he made him more relaxed than usual, more quieter ).

            Connor sat in his lap & Rodrick’s arms were instinctively wrapped around him, holding him close & tight, his hands right at the crook of his lower back, fingers softly rubbing up & down his spine. Rodrick had a smile on his face, wide & bright, feeling the kisses Connor gave him, marveling in each kiss. ❝ I love you, ❞ & only Connor was lucky enough to hear those three words. Only Connor got to hear those words, so genuine & sweet ( almost sickening, when it came from Rodrick ). He leans forward to kiss Connor again & again, not getting enough. He eventually lets out a small fit of giggling against Connor. ❝ I got the best birthday present I could ever ask for : THIS. Being here with you, spending time with you… You’re really my entire world. It feels good, you know? ❞

                            A     tempered     lazy     look     crossed     your     features     as     you     study     that     before     you,     examining     him     under     your     weight     as     you     allow     legs     to     cross     almost     expertly     from     your     perch     upon     your     Fiance’s     lap.     Fingers     softly     brushing     past     the     other’s     shoulders     with     a     happy     looking     smile     that     sat     upon     thin     features,     picking     almost     mindlessly     at     the     wrinkles     of     the     shirt.     YOU     ARE     LUCKY,     &&     here     you     find     some     humor     in     this     moment     where     your     birthday     is     in     the     same     month     as     the     boy     you     decided     to     share     the     rest     of     your     years     with.     IT     FEELS     GOOD,     &&     you     can     only     agree.
