Upon first meeting, things had been...stiff between them. Still, Lauriam had stayed alongside the other leader when they first split up to gather things. Since then, the two had almost been drawn into each other's orbit. They didn't let the other know, or at least Lauriam didn't. And he highly doubted their hatted virus was inclined to share any details with the others about their ..whatever they had.
So colour the gardener surprised when he and the virus kept ending up like this. One of his hands caught on Blaine's collar, the taste of coffee on his lips, hands at his own waist with a bookcase pressed against his hatted paramour's back. They separated for but a moment, a smile twitching at his lips before he reconnected them. Softer than before, with less of the desperate tinge.
After a moment, he pulled away once more, affection clear on his gaze. "How is it, I always crave you, even when you are being a thorn in my side?" The distance between their lips wasn't much, just enough he could pull back and brush their lips together.
