“I do wonder about the things you can do,” Charles says, as if to himself.
“You’ve seen what I can do. It’s thanks to you I could move a satellite dish.”
“Yes,” Charles slots his fingers between Erik’s, and Erik’s fingers curl automatically, locking them in place, “but I’m not sure you understand what your power is at all.”
“Charles?” Erik frowns, not sure if he should be offended by Charles’ words, or if he should take it in stride as one of those things Charles sometimes says, being the dreamer that he is.
Charles waves his free hand dismissively through the air, then grins, a mischievous edge to the expression as he leans closer to Erik, shortening the distance between their faces until Erik can almost count the blue slivers in Charles’ eyes. “You’ve moved something very large, but how about something very small?”
“Such as?” Erik asks cautiously.
“Drinking glasses are about three fourths silica, and silica is a compound of silicon and oxygen,” Charles says, his seemingly endless supply of enthusiasm bubbling up and spilling over. “Now oxygen is a non-metal, but silicon is a metalloid - a diamagnetic element, true, but combined with another metal it could become magnetic,” Charles runs his tongue over his lower lip, pausing for effect. Erik wonders if passion has a taste, “and wouldn’t it be interesting if you could manipulate on such a small scale?”
Charles looks pointedly at him then, and Erik snorts, on the verge of laughing with disbelief. “Charles, you just want me to clean up that mess in the sink.”
“Of course not,” Charles’ grin widens and his hand tightens around Erik’s. “We’ll clean it up together.”

I'm glad you liked the fic, and thank you for prompting ♥ I didn't even know that this is what I wanted to write until I saw it, and I'd never written something so quickly before!
