Camulus Apartment, Eveningtide-ish [[omg NWS]]

Mar 15, 2006 18:19

Orlin wasn't working. He also wasn't cooking. Or even being particlarily annoying. He was almost done fixing the BOX OF DOOM and was savoring the moment. He was also sitting on the couch with his feet propped up, Scathadh curled up on his lap, watching tv ( Read more... )

"Yes. I won't be back." There may be a slight hint of tears there.

But wait, was Camulus actually sounding worried there? And not just about the kitten. A teensy weensy amount of confidence came back to Orlin.

Camulus waited until Orlin was almost out the door before he ground out, almost too low to be heard, "Don't go."

Orlin paused,

"Why?" he asked, not quite believing that Camulus was actually stopping him.

"I . . ." Camulus swallowed, still not looking at Orlin. "I need you."

"Do you really? Or do you just want the cat?" Orlin asked, almost bitterly. But he had turned around and taken a step back into the bedroom. However, his eyes belayed his real feelings, they looked big, blue, and hopeful.

"I didn't . . ." He was going to say 'get jealous'. But of course he wasn't jealous. Jealousy was not in his character. Honest. He took a deep breath and tried again. "It doesn't bother me when Scathadh twines herself around other people."

Hopefully Orlin would take his meaning.

"Neither do I." Orlin said dryly. "I don't see the con...oh." His eyes widened, and a small smile appeared on his mouth, "I see."

He stood in the doorway and waited.

Camulus glanced over his shoulder before looking back down again. "Well, what do you want?" he growled. "If you're going to leave, get it over with and leave me in peace."

Orlin's smile grew, and, quiet as a cat, he slipped over to Camulus and hugged him.

"You are the orniest man I have ever met." he said quetly, his face nuzzled aginst Camulus' chest, his head tucked under the other mans chin, "And I don't know why I tolerate you at all."

"I don't know either," Camulus murmured, wrapping his arms around Orlin, holding him close. "But . . . I'm glad you do." It's the closest Orlin will be getting to a declaration of love any time soon.

Orlin smiled againt Camulus chest. "You're lucky then." He said softly, tightening his hold on Camulus. Like he had almost lost him kind of tight.

"Kiss me? Then... more?" Orlin asked, looking up.

Camulus didn't respond but to twine his fingers in Orlin's hair, tipping his head backwards for a tender kiss as he laid him back on the bed.
