One word. A D O R A B L E!!!

Aro stared at you like you were the moon and stars; those kitten-like sneezes almost making his dead heart beat again.

“Bless you gattina¹.”

You weren’t sure what that last word meant, but it didn’t matter because you blushed a cherry red, making you even cuter. He pulls you closer to his body, rocking you gently in his arms.

“Amore mio, lo sono pazza di te².”

Thankfully, you and Marcus were tucked away in his private rooms talking about anything you could think of until you felt a tickle in your nose. Knowing how your sneezes sounded, you were a little insecure and tried to hold it in, but your face was already scrunching up before you could-

Achoo! Achoo!

It’s silent for a few moments. Your face feels hot and you have to force yourself to look over at Marcus, who was smiling at you like a love-sick fool (which he is).

“Σ 'αγαπώ τόσο πολύ³.” He mutters bashfully.

He gently says ‘bless you’ after that before carrying on with the conversation because he could tell you were embarrassed.

It was quick and sudden and you weren’t prepared for it at all. The sneeze was strong enough to shake your entire body (which was adorable even though it looked like you were having a seizure), but the sound of it was anything but big. You look at Caius he’s smiling at you, but not in a teasing way (for once). It was more a smile of fondness.

“You always find new ways to warm my unbeating heart, my love. Surely you do this on purpose?”

Your lips quirk up in a small smile and it has him pulling you into his lap for cuddles.

¹ gattina (Italian) = kitten

² Amore mio, lo sono pazza di te (Italian) = My love, I’m crazy for you

And Caius standing guard until he returns to himself, either with a cry or a sigh, offering him kind words freely, letting him find comfort in his own sense of security, listening to him talk and talk in circles until things get put in their right place, watching him with vocal support as he built himself up from a shivering, unstable mess into a secure man who finally knows his place in the world,

Sweetie... AO3 is the site for that. Y'all invaded our space.

Fucking hell.
