Fluffy July Day 23: Cuddling for Warmth (ALT) / "I hate you" "No you don't"

AO3 🩷

“What would you airheads ever do without me?” Raphael murmured ruefully (yes, rueful, not painfully fond; an easy mistake.)

Leonardo would’ve been in for a neck cramp that could make anyone unfit for duty, head lolling toward his chest as he “meditated”. Donatello and Michelangelo could’ve blown the whole lair, dozing off at the Bunsen burner and pizza oven respectively. Still, the sweet, snuggly sloth-like hugs they each gave him as the ferryman to their feather pillows were almost payment enough for him to forgive.

Day 23 @fluffyjuly, 11 to go after this in three days!

Hot Chocolate and Deception- (how have i still failed to get the the hot chocolate part of the title)

---

Finn was woken by a muffled cry, he remembered the only person he could be quickly and forced himself up to follow the sound to the spare room.

The spare room wasn’t the reason mother had sent Elijah home with him, nor was the fact Elijah’s new body and health was far worse than either of them had realised. It was so Finn could deal with Elijah if during the first tonight he suddenly remembered and attempted to warn Klaus.

So he was, once again, on Elijah baby sitting duties, something he was sure ended before his little brother reached double digits but seemed painfully fitting with Elijah's new body..

The new ‘teen’ was tossing and turning in the spare bed when Finn arrived, one hand reaching up so even in his sleep Elijah was trying to keep himself quiet, hiding any weakness or failing.

If Finn was a more curiosity person; he have to wonder just how much was nature, muscle memory or locked away memories resurfacing in his sleep, but Finn wasn’t that curiosity that was Kol and Finn had one job given to him by mother, watch Elijah and ensure he behaved and was ready for any task given.

‘It really was a repeat of his childhood in someways,’ he shook that thought away and bent over the bed to reach Elijah. 

“Elijah” he called lightly, moving his hands to the other’s shoulder, ignoring how thin they felt, “wake up.” he ordered

When that did nothing but cause another quiet whimper, Finn shook his brother lightly, he hated how fragile the body in his hands felt and tried to pretend it was only due to being more used to his brother as a vampire, and solidly built man and not the starved waif his mother had placed Elijah’s soul into.

“Finn-” Elijah croaked blinking up at him with tired eyes and confusion. 

“You were having a nightmare.” he explained quickly, hoping the sooner he could get Elijah back to sleep the better, the shadows under Elijah’s eyes proved he had been missing sleep along with food.

“I don’t remember." Elijah muttered as his breathing calmed but his growing frustration was audible  “How can I not remember when the feelings-”

“Its fine.” Finn cut him off before Elijah could work himself up further and attempt anything, Finn had quickly started to pray to gods long forgotten that Elijah couldn’t remember on his own, not out of fear Elijah would attack him, he would but in this body Finn was stronger physically and with magic, he was far more concerned about the more the amount of damage Elijah would do to the body pushing himself too far. “”Nightmares can just be nightmares and you had a long day.” 

“But-”

“Mother has plans that we both will be helping with, so you need to rest.” Finn told him and he stood back, “so do I." he added

Elijah nodded but shuddered while wrapping his arms around himself.

Finn made the mistake of looking back, Elijah looked tiny and young, sitting on the bed with blankets pulled up and wrapped around him but still shivering.

“Do you want to come with me?” he asked and was met with wide brown eyes and frantic nodding, the fact Elijah's new body was so young was once again painful as he was reminded of Henrik.

Finn took a step back to the bed but before he got close he was met with a weight hitting his waist, he looked down to find Elijah attempting to bury himself in his side, blankets left behind.

He sighed, the sound hitching as Elijah’s hands managed to get under his shirt, thin fingers feeling like icicles on his skin.

Without thinking Finn moved, slipping an arm under Elijah’s legs and lifting, it was just to get them back to bed sooner, he told himself, mother needed them well rested.

Elijah curled further into him seeking more heat and he made a note to get Elijah warmer clothes, those he had given him after his shower were clearly not warm enough and too big he noticed now.

"This is humiliating," Kaoru grumbled mostly to himself. He frowned and focused on anything but the broad chest he was propped up against.

"Yeah? Well, suck it up, buttercup." Kojiro snorted. He gave the pink-haired man in his arms a quick jostle. "You're the one who went and hurt your ankle so you only have yourself to blame."

Kojiro turned sideways to shimmy into the bedroom without bumping Kaoru on the doorframe. Though in hindsight, he supposed the guy would've had it coming. Ah, well.

"Why exactly are you carrying me like a princess?" Kaoru asked through gritted teeth. Surely there had to have been another way.

"Because you are a princess," Kojiro replied without missing a beat

The string of obscenities that escaped Kaoru as he wriggled in the other man's grip would've made even the most hardened sailor blush. Though, really, it seemed like he momentarily forget he had exactly no power over the current situation.

Kojiro decided it'd be best to jog his memory. He stepped over to the side of the bed and tossed the other man without warning. Kaoru barely had a chance to belittle him for not being more careful and brush his long locks out of his face before Kojiro joined him.

He crawled up the length of the other man's body until they were eye to eye. The action surprised Kaoru long enough to silence him for the moment. Good, good.

Kojiro took a second to admire the beauty beneath him. The light green kimono Kaoru wore fell open at some point during his transportation to the bed. It now revealed a whole lot of neck, one shoulder, and just the barest hint of a nipple. Quite scandalous, indeed.

He bent down and nuzzled Kaoru's neck. Warm and bitable, but what else was new? Kojiro's voice was soft, his breath warm against the skin there when he muttered, "Is it really such a bad thing to be my princess?"

Kaoru glanced off to the side and said, "Don't be ridicu-!"

Nah, Kojiro didn't want or need to hear it. He was very aware of how Kaoru's breath hitched in his throat when he started planting kisses along his neck. Of how he arched it just slightly to allow better access. Kojiro continued slowly down his neck until he reached his pec. Only then did he stop and look down at the lovely fabric barely covering the man once more.

Kojiro's hand slid up Kaoru's thigh slowly, bunching the fabric of his kimono there and exposing his skin. His voce was soft when he purred, "Why'd you choose this color, anyway? It's not your usual shade."

"It was so hideous it reminded me of you," Kaoru snorted.

"You're such a prick," Kojiro replied.

"Take a look in the damn mirror." Kaoru spat.

And then they were kissing again. Kojiro couldn't say which of them initiated it this time but he didn't mind either way. His hand slipped beneath the fabric that'd bunched on Kaoru's thigh. Soft and warm. Very in need of a kiss. Maybe a bite. Definitely a bite.

He smiled then broke the kiss when Kaoru whimpered softly against his lips. This guy wanted him so bad it was stupid. And that meant Kojiro was going to make him wait. He knew from experience that the more frustrated Kaoru became the more feisty he ended up.

Kojiro's gaze fell downward once again then his hand casually slid into the side of the kimono that was already falling off his companion. A very obvious shiver ran down Kaoru's spine and Kojiro couldn't help but want to tease him just a bit. There was a coy smile upon his face when he said, "This is definitely your color. You should wear it more often."

Kaoru took deeper breaths than one would consider necessary in this moment... unless you were totally flustered and trying to hold back. He gathered his composure then glared at his partner and grumbled, "Give me one reason I should."

“Ah. Very funny. Seriously, though, what do you want?”

The witch dropped the orchid back into the vase. “Just seeing if you needed someone to represent you for your divorce. Not a lot of lawyers around here, you know?” Zelena said cheekily

“Hm. Well, seeing as this is a fake town with fake documents because most of us don’t care about being citizens, Rumple and I’s marriage isn’t at all legally or magically binding. But I appreciate the concern.” Belle gave her a tight smile.

"Eir, where's Pepper?"

Laurent found his—their—cat sitting on Gale's stomach, the two lounging on the couch. Gale cranes his neck and smiles at him. "He's here, love."

"It's time for bed, let me grab him..."

"You can't disturb him!" Gale hovers a hand over Pepper protectively. "If you want to take him to bed, you'll just have to take me with you."

Laurent looks unamused. "This was your plan, wasn't it..." Regardless, Laurent bends down and picks up both husband and cat, Gale giggling lightly as he does so.

Pepper, unaffected by his owners' shenanigans, continues to sleep.

[Laurent's been terrified of animals for literally centuries, but by some miracle, Gale managed to convince him that they had to take in Pepper. He was initially apprehensive, but now he loves that little cat to pieces.]
