Covering the Bases
Part Forty-Six - Bath Time
Yuuri - *nods once more* "Whenever I started to feel like that... I had to go find someone to bring me a snack... I thought that would fix it..."
Wolfram - *now he has to lift a hand and cover his mouth to keep himself from laughing/the poor, naive little thing.../can't say anything to him, fearing he'd only start giggling if he tried*
Yuuri - *fidgets a little, not really knowing if Wolfram was covering his mouth because he was... horrified... or... something..../forces himself to laugh, though a bit nervously* "It's pretty silly, isn't it...?"
Wolfram - *pulls his hand away, shaking his head slowly* "No, it's... it's very... you..." *quirky and naive*
Yuuri - *blinks at him, not really sure what he meant* "It's very... me...?"
Wolfram - *nods* "I honestly can't imagine you realizing it any other way... well... not in a way that... that someone would normally realize it..."
Yuuri - *blinks some more, still a little confused, but leaves it at that/grins at the memory, shaking his head a little* "Gunter started to think that I was developing an eating problem..."
Wolfram - *laughs lightly* "I'm surprised you didn't start gaining a lot of weight..."
Yuuri - *shakes his head again* "I was getting a bit worried about that, too... So I had Conrad train an extra hour with me every morning..."
Wolfram - *snorts* "I'm sure Gwendal got angry when you weren't in the office on time..." *raises an eyebrow* "Unless you started getting up an hour earlier to make up for it..." *he himself wouldn't have noticed; he usually stayed asleep or just laid in bed longer than Yuuri did, unless there was something he had to do in the mornings*
Yuuri - *winces* "Y-yeah... Gwendal yelled at me after being late a couple times.... so then I started getting up earlier... Conrad said it was okay, since he was already awake anyway..."
Wolfram - *lifts a hand to stroke at Yuuri's hair* "It's a wonder you weren't exhausted all the time..."
Yuuri - *shrugs, though flushing lightly* "I... I thought it would be better if I was exhausted... I... I thought that if I was tired... then I wouldn't think about you as much..."
Wolfram - *looks at him, smiling at his light flush - so cute - curious* "Did it work?"
Yuuri - *shakes his head* "No... It made it worse... Gwendal and Gunter got mad at me and accused me of daydreaming too much..."
Wolfram - "You daydreamed about me?" *can't help feeling all giddy inside/this was the first time he'd ever really heard about things like that/thinking that Yuuri had been as love-sick as he was made him feel good about himself, too*
Yuuri - *flushes a little more, nodding* "Y-yeah... I did..." *pauses, shaking his head* "Gunter had Gisela come in to make sure I wasn't sick at least a dozen times...."
Wolfram - "What... what were some of your daydreams like...?"
Yuuri - *stares at him, flushing brightly* "W-what...??"
Wolfram - *grins a little bit* "It want to know what some of your daydreams were like..."
Yuuri - *shrinks down a little/this was embarrassing.../forces himself to talk, though* "I... I liked to picture you sleeping... most of the times they would be of you falling asleep under one of the trees in the garden, almost completely hidden behind a wall of flowers..." *pauses, but forces himself to go on* "And... I would picture myself going out to meet you... but you would be so fast asleep that I would just have to hold you in my arms... and when you woke up, you'd smile at me... and I'd smile back..." *trails off, feeling really corny for dreaming up stuff like that*
Wolfram - *grins even more/it was just like Yuuri to be so sappy and romantic* "Is that it...?"
Yuuri - *shakes his head, swallowing to try and stop his throat from being so dry* "I liked to push you on a swing... In our own little secret place... where no one else would find us... and then we'd climb up into this huge tree and just sit there and watch the sun set...."
Wolfram - *takes a moment to try and think if there was a nice little tree somewhere near the castle where they could attach a swing - that might be fun/smiles at him lovingly* "Anything else...?"
Yuuri - *blushes a bit darker* "I liked being your knight in shining armor... and rescue you from different dangers..."
Wolfram - *brushes at some of his hair again* "I'm sorry you disappoint you, but usually I'm the one saving you..."
Yuuri - *stares at him for a bit, then pouts, though moving a little closer so he could reach his hair easier at the same time* "Yeah... well... At least let me think I'm cool in my fantasies, okay...?"
Wolfram - *snorts lightly, brushing at his hair some more, liking the way the dark strands slipped through his fingers* "You can think what you want..." *smiles some more/he really liked hearing Yuuri say all these sweet things* "Any more fantasies I should know about...?"
Yuuri - *pouts more, unable to stop from flushing brightly again* "Maybe..."
Wolfram - *almost giggles/he was so cute! especially when he flushed like that!* "Tell me... please...?"
Yuuri - *pouting and feeling really embarrassed about telling Wolfram all of his stupid daydreams/mumbles quietly* "There's this little meadow or something in the mountains or somewhere surrounded by tall trees... and the meadow is filled with wild flowers... and we'd lay on our backs just staring at the perfect blue sky..." *why he felt more embarrassed about that one daydream, he had no idea... but he did...*
Wolfram - "That's nothing to blush about, you know..." *he should have figured Yuuri would have these sorts of sappy little daydreams/he seemed to enjoy the simple, romantic things*
Yuuri - *blushes darker, despite himself/mumbles again* "I know..."
Wolfram - *tugs lightly at a few strands of his hair, playful* "Then why so embarrassed?"
Yuuri - *stares at the blond before glancing away a bit* "Because... It sounds stupid... and it's things only I've thought up before... kinda like me giving you my diary to read..."
Wolfram - *huffs a little, tugging lightly on his hair again* "It is not stupid..."
Yuuri - *glances back at him, blinking curiously* "You.... don't think it's stupid...? All those things...?"
Wolfram - *shakes his head slowly* "Of course not. Why would I?"
Yuuri - *feels kinda stupid for thinking that Wolfram thought what he thought up was stupid* "W-well... I... it's just not... I.... I don't know..."
Wolfram - *lets out a soft sigh* "It makes me happy to know that you've thought of me all this time, even when I didn't realize it..."
Yuuri - *blinks again, feeling a bit relieved* "Really...?"
Wolfram - *nods, still smiling* "Of course." *playful* "I'm selfish, remember? I want you to think of me all the time."
Yuuri - *lets out a small sigh of relief* "Of course..." *sits up on his knees some to hover a little over the blond* "I love you..."
Wolfram - *continues to smile at him sweetly, moving his hand from his hair to stroke the side of his face* "I love you, too..."
Yuuri - *stares at him for a few moments longer before leaning a bit closer to kiss him*
Wolfram - *kisses him back lightly, keeping his hand in place along the side of his face/thinks that Yuuri is such an adorable wimp*
Miko - *happily makes her way out from the kitchen with a plate of toast and a glass in her hands/smiling brightly* "Wol-chan? Are you feeling any better?" *stops at the sight of them and quickly turning around to give them privacy/giggles to herself* "Oh my..."
Yuuri - *was going to kiss the blond more, but at the sound of his mother, he quickly pulls back to shrink down next to the couch, burying his face into the cushion again/muffled* "Mom!!!" *jeez!!*
Wolfram - *actually isn't embarrassed at all, and has to resist the temptation to laugh at Yuuri's reaction/at least Miko had the decency to turn around, unlike stupid Gunter who just stared, or stupid Conrart who butted into their business and pulled them apart, or Gwendal who got angry and made them too scared to do anything like that when he was anywhere nearby*
Miko - *cautiously glances back over her shoulder, giggling again* "Yuu-chan~ It's 'Mama,' okay?" *steps around the table to set the plate and glass down before placing her hands on her hips* "Yuu-chan, don't be a pig and eat all of that. It's for Wol-chan once he feels like he can eat something." *yay toast and gingerale!*
Yuuri - *turns his head to the side to frown at his mom/what the heck?? he wasn't a pig!*
Wolfram - *glances up at the woman gratefully/his stomach was still a little upset, but talking with Yuuri had managed to distract him from it/smiles* "Thank you, Mother..."
Yuuri - *pouts up at his mother* "Don't I get anything for breakfast...?"
Miko - *smiles at him, holding up her index finger to wave in the air, knowingly* "You know where the kitchen is, Yuu-chan. Get something for yourself if you're hungry." *turns to make her way to the door* "Mama is going to do some errands now. I'll be back later! Bye bye!" *leaves the room*
Yuuri - *sputters/what the heck?!*
Wolfram - *giggles a little, turning his smile towards Yuuri/teases him* "Have you gotten so used to having maids that you've forgotten how to do things yourself...?"
Yuuri - *pouts at him* "No..." *but jeez... if she was going to bring something for Wolfram, she could have brought something for him, too!*
Wolfram - *strokes at his hair again/mock pouts at him* "Don't pout..."
Yuuri - *pouts more*
Wolfram - *pouts more as well, mocking him*
Yuuri - *raises an eyebrow at him, easily noticing how he did the same thing* "Are you mocking me...?"
Wolfram - *shows him a small grin* "Why would I do something like that...?"
Yuuri - *grumbles about how he was just like that/buries his face back into the couch*
Wolfram - *pets his hair some more* "You do realize people can still hear you when you grumble like that, right?"
Yuuri - *tenses up some/muffled and blushing lightly, though it couldn't really be seen at the moment* "N-no they can't...."
Wolfram - "Yes, they can..." *as long as they were paying attention, of course/some people just didn't care enough to listen in when he did it*
Yuuri - *whimpers some, flushing darker, though still refusing to fully believe something like that*
Wolfram - *gives him a little comforting pat* "It's alright. It's cute."
Yuuri - *pulls his head back from the couch just enough to pout at him* "Whatever..."
Wolfram - *moves his hand from his hair to gently trail a finger down his nose, stopping to lightly tap at the tip* "You're cuter than you think you are..."
Yuuri - *crosses his eyes a bit to follow his finger, scrunching up his nose lightly at the tap/he really wasn't as cute as Wolfram though he was... or whatever...* "I'm sure..."
Wolfram - *laughs at him again* "It's true..."
Yuuri - *rolls his eyes a bit* "Whatever... You're way cuter than anyone I know... I've got nothing on you..."
Wolfram - *a small smirk appears on his face* "Haven't we argued over who's cuter before? I think I won, if I remember correctly..." *which he couldn't really, but he usually wins so he figures he must have that time, too*
Yuuri - *sighs lightly* "Technically... we tied... I started and I let you finish... we had the same amount of points..." *grumbles lightly about how he almost never won anything...*
Wolfram - "There's no such thing as a tie. If you let me finish, that means I won, right? You forfeited."
Yuuri - *grumbles* "Whatever..." *crap... he was right...ish...*
Wolfram - *laughs lightly once more* "Sore loser... You know, most of your failures are a result of a forfeit. If you didn't give in so easily, you wouldn't lose as much..." *not that he had any intention of ever letting him win*
Yuuri - *pouts at him* "I am not a sore loser..." *sore loser...*
Wolfram - "Yes, you are..."
Yuuri - "No, I'm not..."
Wolfram - "Yes, you are..."
Yuuri - "No... I'm not..."
Wolfram - "Yes, you are..."
Yuuri - "Nope..."
Wolfram - "Yes..."
Yuuri - *frowns at him* "Just because you're most stubborn than I am most of the time doesn't mean I'm a sore loser... and I know what you're doing..."
Wolfram - *grins wider at him* "I win again..."
Yuuri - *goes from frowning to pouting*
Wolfram - "Awww..." *brushes a finger along his pouting lower lip*
Yuuri - *pouts more, sticking out his tongue to lick the blond's finger*
Wolfram - *giggles, but doesn't pull his hand away* "You're the most adorable wimp I've ever met..."
Yuuri - *rolls his eyes* "Thanks..." *sits up on his knees again to lean closer to Wolfram*
Wolfram - "You should take that as a compliment. Most wimps are annoying..."
Yuuri - *lets out a short laugh* "So what was a compliment...? Well... then I'm proud to be a non-annoying wimp..."
Wolfram - *shakes his head* "But you're not as much of a wimp as you used to be... I don't recall you ever punching anyone until recently..."
Yuuri - *stares down at him, feeling guilty about it* "I... I hadn't punched anyone in a long time..."
Wolfram - "If I hadn't been so worried about you, I would have been impressed..."
Yuuri - *blinks/was he serious...?* "Why...?"
Wolfram - "Because I hadn't really expected you to ever hit anyone... not like that..."
Yuuri - *winces a little, not really knowing what Wolfram thought about what he had done, especially since he couldn't really remember it himself* "I... I probably should have thought about what I was doing..."
Wolfram - *snorts* "You were half drunk. There isn't much thinking you could have been able to do."
Yuuri - *frowns a little* "Yeah... well... I guess I just won't ever drink again... not if I end up not knowing what I'm doing..."
Wolfram - *pouts at him playfully* "But I didn't get to see you completely drunk..."
Yuuri - *sputters* "Wha...??"
Wolfram - *grins* "I wanted to see what you were like completely drunk, not just half there."
Yuuri - *frowns at him a little more* "Yeah... well... sorry..." *grumbles about how that would have been much, much worse....*
Wolfram - *as always, he can hear his grumbling* "Of course..." *or he would have been too drunk to do anything*
Yuuri - *sighs, content on just staring into his fiance’s eyes* "Maybe another time..."
Wolfram - *smiles at him, still playful* "Don't get drunk at the wedding. We won't have much of a wedding night if you do..."
Yuuri - *blinks at him, feeling himself blush lightly/mumbles quietly* "O-okay... I won't..."
Wolfram - *trails a finger over one of his flushed cheeks* "What are you blushing for this time...?"
Yuuri - *shakes his head* "Nothing..."
Wolfram - *pouts at him/whines a bit* "Tell me..."
Yuuri - *swallows, flushing a little darker* "W-well... You said that... you're getting 'cute' pajamas to wear..." *trails off, unable to force himself to say anything more lest he blush more*
Wolfram - *raises an eyebrow at him, curious* "Or so my mother keeps telling me..."
Yuuri - "Oh...." *pauses, feeling stupid* "So... you might not...?"
Wolfram - "Oh, I'm sure I will, you just have to keep my mother's definition of 'cute' in mind..." *he could only imagine all the things she had planned for him, and he was sure he'd be embarrassed to death when she gave them to him*
Yuuri - *well... knowing his mother... he could probably guess what her definition of 'cute' was* "Oh..."
Wolfram - *his eyebrow goes back to its raised position* "And why are you thinking of 'cute' pajamas, anyway...?" *either the wimp was as perverted as his mother, or he'd thought they'd be 'cute' in the literal sense*
Yuuri - *shrugs* "I was just wondering how you'd look..."
Wolfram - *more curious* "How did you think I would look?" *or maybe that wasn't the question he should be asking him* "What, exactly, were you thinking of when you thought 'cute?'"
Yuuri - *blinks at him, blushing a bit darker* "I-I dunno... Maybe something with pretty little flowers... Or... something like that..." *yeah, his definition of 'cute' and Celi's definition of 'cute' probably didn't match up at all, but did he know that? of course not...*
Wolfram - *snorts lightly* "'Pretty little flowers?'" *he could not, for the life of him, imagine his mother giving him something with flowers on it/ribbons, maybe; lace, probably, but no little flowers* "I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I don't think there will be any flowers... I'll consider myself fortunate if I get something that actually makes it halfway towards my knees..."
Yuuri - *blinks at him* "Halfway to--...." *oh..../insert mad blushing*
Wolfram - *blushes as well/hey, he'd be the one wearing it, not Yuuri - thinks he has more of a right to be embarrassed*
Yuuri - *coughs lightly, trying to save them from a bit of awkwardness* "Well... I bet you'll look amazing..." *pauses, frowning a little as he tried to imagine what he was suggesting*
Wolfram - "I'm sure I'll look the part of a whore..." *has no idea why his mother likes to wear such revealing clothing/she was the only person he could think of off of the top of his head who did so on a daily basis*
Yuuri - *stares at him for a moment, frowning a little/quietly* "You know I don't like it when you say stuff like that..."
Wolfram - "What?" *pouts a little* "I didn't say I am a whore-" *for once, though he still thought it* "-I said I'll probably look like one..."
Yuuri - *sighs, leaning down to kiss his forehead* "It doesn't matter... I still don't like that word..."
Wolfram - *snorts/mutters* "Whore..."
Yuuri - *pulls back some, frowning sadly at him* "Why do you do that...?"
Wolfram - *looks at him curiously* "Do what...?"
Yuuri - "When I say I don't like something... or don't want you to do something... you do it anyway...? Is it just to spite me...?"
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes* "I can say what I want..." *okay, so maybe it was to spite him, just a little; as way to prove he didn't have as much power over him as he thought/frowns at him some* "What word would you rather I use? 'Concubine?' 'Harlot?' 'Prostitute?' 'Slut?' 'Tart?' 'Tramp?'" *didn't think any of those words were any better/they all pretty much meant the same thing*
Yuuri - *frowns at him more, pulling back to sit just out of the blond's reach* "I would rather you not use any of those words..."
Wolfram - *frowns at him even more, not really liking where this was going/repeats himself* "I can say what I want..."
Yuuri - *lets out a sigh and nods, though doesn't move from where he was/a bit upset that Wolfram insisted on doing something he knew he didn't like... but what could he do besides ask him not to...?* "Fine... I can't stop you anyway..."
Wolfram - "No, you can't... And don't try to. I don't mind it when you're a little more forceful; what I don't like is when you turn into a controlling asshole."
Yuuri - *winces, still feeling horrible for what he did* "Okay..."
Wolfram - "So if I want to call myself or anyone else a whore, I will." *thinks about it for a moment, his frown smoothing out slightly* "Although 'concubine' sounds a little more noble, it just doesn't have the same ring to it as 'whore' does..."
Yuuri - *nods slowly, staring at the ground in front of the couch/even though it pains him deeply to hear such things, he again mumbles:* "Okay..."
Wolfram - "And, you know, I really don't see what your problem with it is." *stares at him seriously* "I accepted it the moment I let you do more than kiss me. Why can't you?"
Yuuri - *fidgets nervously where he sat, not really liking how it turned back on him* "I... I don't know..."
Wolfram - "It's not like anyone else knows it. It's just us." *and his family, but they hardly seemed to care - Gwendal would, though, which is why he'd been trying to keep it a secret* "Plus..." *smirks a little* "I'm not anyone else's. I'm yours..."
Yuuri - *grumbles at the ground even though he still didn't want to accept it* "Damn right you're only mine..."
Wolfram - *smirks more, not really wanting to get him all moody and worked up again, be he did like to see his reactions occasionally/he liked antagonizing every once in a while* "I'm your whore..."
Yuuri - *lets out a huff/was he trying to make him feel better about it or something...?* "I know..."
Wolfram - "So, then what's the problem...?"
Yuuri - *shakes his head/still not accepting it* "You should know by now that it takes a while for me to accept certain things..." *after now long it took him to admit his feelings for the blond...*
Wolfram - "Well say it, then. Maybe openly acknowledging it will help you to accept it." *really just wants to antagonize him more*
Yuuri - *quickly shakes his head* "I won't..."
Wolfram - *pouts at him teasingly* "Don't be a wimp..."
Yuuri - *frowns at the ground* "I won't say it..."
Wolfram - *sits up a little bit to get a better look at him, ignoring his still slightly upset stomach/grins mischievously* "Tell me 'you're my whore.'"
Yuuri - *shakes his head again/stubborn* "No..."
Wolfram - *goes back to pouting* "But it'll make me happy..." *more like it will amuse him*
Yuuri - *glances up to stare at him, feeling a little sick* "How will that make you happy??"
Wolfram - *shrugs* "I'd much rather be your whore than someone else's." *wrinkles his nose a bit* "At least you treat me right..."
Yuuri - *grumbles at the floor again* "Well... I would hope you would..."
Wolfram - *grins again once Yuuri isn't looking at him* "So...? Say it..."
Yuuri - *continues to stare at the floor, trying to convince himself to just say the stupid thing and get it over with/can feel his cheeks heat up drastically/mumbles, barely even a whisper* "You're my whore..."
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes a little/that was pathetic* "Louder..."
Yuuri - *sputters/he couldn't be serious!/mumbles again, louder this time* "You're my whore."
Wolfram - *huffs/again:* "Louder."
Yuuri - *looks up from the floor to frown at him/speaking clearly this time* "You're my whore! Are you happy?? I said it!"
Wolfram - *another eye roll, clearly unimpressed* "You had to force it. Look me in the eye and say it like you mean it. And then don't add any of that 'are you happy' crap at the end; it ruins the effect."
Yuuri - *stares at him in clear disbelief for a moment before dropping his gaze to stare at the floor again/takes a deep breath, finally sitting up again and moving closer to the couch, lifting a hand to caress the blond's cheek, holding it while he gazed into his eyes* "You're my whore... That's all that matters... that you're mine..."
Wolfram - *shivers lightly/wonders if it's strange that that had sounded so nice, so exciting/it makes his breathing quicken, and his face flush, and his heart skip a beat/begins to think that he rather likes Yuuri's possessiveness/being labeled a whore didn't sound nearly as insulting when he said it like that*
Yuuri - *watches him carefully for a few moments, gently brushing his thumb along Wolfram's cheek* "Wolf...?"
Wolfram - *quietly* "Yes...?"
Yuuri - *pauses, smiling lightly at him* "I love you..."
Wolfram - "I love you, too..."
Yuuri - *watches him for a bit longer, then leans in a bit closer to kiss him*
Wolfram - *immediately kisses him back, lifting his arms to wrap them around his neck*
Yuuri - *kisses him deeper, pushing him back some so that he was laying on the pillows again*
Wolfram - *releases a soft little whine as he's pushed back, pulling Yuuri closer, kissing him deeper as well*
Yuuri - *leans over him as best he could with the couch in the way/slides his arms under Wolfram, holding him even closer to him as he kissed him back*
Wolfram - *moves his hands to his back to grip onto his shirt tightly, trying to pull him even closer, kissing him passionately*
Yuuri - *holds him even closer, clinging to him, kissing him back just as passionately*
Wolfram - *groans in the back of his throat, fully enjoying this/forgets his upset stomach, and all the frustrations it brought along with it*
Yuuri - *groans lightly as well, completely forgetting about everything except for Wolfram/he was all that mattered to him, anyway*
Wolfram - *pulls back to take a few quick breaths, opening his eyes to stare at him, smiling/whispers* "I love being yours..."
Yuuri - *stares back at him, panting heavily/smiles lovingly at him* "Thank you for being mine..."
Wolfram - *laughs lightly* "You're welcome..."
Yuuri - *carefully pulls a hand out from under the blond to lift up and brush at his hair, not forgetting that he had been feeling bad earlier* "How are you feeling...?"
Wolfram - *smiles at him* "Okay, I guess..." *his stomach was still bothering him, but not as much as it had been when he'd first woken up*
Yuuri - *asks out of habit* "Do you want me to get you anything...? Are you hungry-....?" *catches himself a bit too late/eyes widen a bit as he quickly shuts his mouth and holds his breath/feels like an idiot, especially since he'd been yelled at the last few times he'd asked that*
Wolfram - *shakes his head, and doesn't feel as annoyed as he had the last time he'd asked him that* "No, I'm fine. I'm a little afraid to eat very much."
Yuuri - *lets out a small sigh of relief/really needed to stop pushing his luck* "Did... you want to take a bath...?" *wanted him to be comfortable, even if he didn't want anything*
Wolfram - *thinks about it for a moment, then nods, thinking it might make him feel at least a little better/if not, at least he'd be clean* "Yeah... I suppose..."
Yuuri - *nods at him* "I... Can you wait here...? I'll go get you some clothes to wear..."
Wolfram - *nods again, agreeing, then remembers something, and though it makes him cringe to think about it, he knew he had to drink it* "Can you get one of the bottles Gisela gave me, too?"
Yuuri - *smiles at him, brushing his hair some more/was going to get him one of the bottles, anyway* "Wait right here... I'll be back before you know it... okay...?"
Wolfram - *smiles lovingly at him* "Okay..."
Yuuri - *leans closer to him to give him a quick kiss before pulling away/dashes up the stairs, quickly raiding his mother's closet for something cute for the blond to wear, then stops by his room to get one of the bottles/winces at the watery mess on the floor, but he'd deal with that later/hurries back down the stairs, sliding to a stop in front of the couch, grinning a bit goofily at Wolfram - he didn't trip on the stairs this time...*
Wolfram - *raises an eyebrow at the goofy smile, wondering what could have possibly put a look like that onto his face* "What...?"
Yuuri - *shakes his head* "It's nothing. Come on, I'll carry you..." *didn't really want to tell him that he was proud of himself for not being a complete klutz*
Wolfram - *shakes his head at him, still smiling* "Fine..." *lifts his arms up, ready to be picked up*
Yuuri - *places the little bottle in his back pocket and places the clean clothes on top of the blond's stomach before leaning down to scoop him off of the couch, carrying him over to the bath/watching him* "Are you sure you're getting enough to eat...?"
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes a bit, keeping his arms wrapped loosely around his neck the entire way* "I eat as much as I can when I can." *it's not like he could stop it from coming back up* "Why do you ask?"
Yuuri - *shrugs, nudging the bathroom door open with his foot, carrying Wolfram inside* "You're really light..."
Wolfram - *sarcastic* "I'm sorry."
Yuuri - *rolls his eyes, sitting down on the edge of the tub and refusing to let the blond go just yet/carefully reaches over to turn on the water once he was sure Wolfram was holding onto him/doesn't exactly ever want to leave him, but figures he might as well ask* "Did... did you want me to leave...?"
Wolfram - *ponders over Yuuri's question, and comes to a relatively quick answer/did he want him to leave?? pft! what kind of a question was that anyway??* "Why would I want you to leave?"
Yuuri - *stares at him for a moment/why would he want him to leave...?/flushes a bit at his stupid question* "I don't know... I just thought I should ask..."
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes a little, though he isn't annoyed at all* "Don't ask stupid questions you already know the answer to."
Yuuri - *nods at him/reaches down to the water to make sure the temperature was okay/what? at least he knew for sure now... he didn't want to do anything Wolfram didn't want him to do... er... unintentionally, at least*
Wolfram - *sighs lightly as he waits, staring down into the water/now that the idea of having a bath has sunk into his head, he can't wait to get in/although...* "You Earthlings have small baths..."
Yuuri - *rolls his eyes a bit* "That's because the house isn't that big... There are plenty of large baths...."
Wolfram - *shrugs/it's not like it bothered him at all - well... not really/he was just pointing things out/being cramped in a small bath would take some getting used to, but he'd be just as clean - and that, to him, was the more important thing*
Yuuri - *turns off the water once it's full enough/grins at the blond* "There... perfect, just for you."
Wolfram - "If you say so..." *removes himself from Yuuri's hold to stand and begin to take the oversized pajamas off*
Yuuri - *watches him, not bothering to move/it wasn't as though he could do much, anyway....*
Wolfram - *carelessly drops everything onto the floor, thinking again about getting his own clothes and pajamas to wear on Earth - not because he didn't like wearing Yuuri's, but because... well... they'd actually fit/steps into the tub to sink into the water, letting out a contented sigh as he did so*
Yuuri - *stares absentmindedly at the blond, splashing the water lightly with a finger* "Is it okay? It's not too hot, is it...?"
Wolfram - *shakes his head, then smiles up at him* "It's fine..." *it felt wonderful, actually, and he immediately relaxes*
Yuuri - *remains where he was for a few moments, then slides along the edge of the tub towards the blond/moves off the edge to sit on the floor, resting his head on his arm on the edge, staring at Wolfram again*
Wolfram - *turns a bit to look at him, noticing his gaze* "What...?"
Yuuri - *shakes his head, forcing himself not to blush/honest* "Nothing... I just like looking at you..."
Wolfram - "I noticed..." *it was hard not to, now that he knew/raises an eyebrow at him and smirks playfully/teasing* "Do you want to help me wash...?"
Yuuri - *blinks, but nods, sitting up some more/still doing his best to hold back any small flush* "Sure..."
Wolfram - *his smirk widens/can tell he's trying his hardest not to blush* "Get to it, then..."
Yuuri - *blinks again, then hurriedly glances around for the soap - apparently he forgot where the soap was in his own home/finds it, taking it in his hand before rolling up his sleeves/stares at Wolfram again, clearly unsure of where to start*
Wolfram - *easily notices his hesitation* "What...?"
Yuuri - *swallows, shaking his head* "N-nothing..." *pauses a bit longer, then leans a bit closer to stick the soap in the water/pulls it out and moves his hand to start washing at Wolfram's arm/the hope that he could resist blushing was getting more and more difficult...*
Wolfram - *smiles to himself, sitting still as he allows Yuuri to go about what he was doing/absently wonders how long it will take for Yuuri to start blushing, and is pretty sure his face will be at least a light pink before he manages to finish*
Yuuri - *paying careful attention to what he was doing, not wanting to be accused of missing a spot/reaches down with his other hand to gently pull the blond's arm out of the water, running the soap along his skin*
Wolfram - *can't stop himself from giggling just a little/likes the idea that he can get Yuuri to do pretty much whatever he wants/sits there and makes no move to help, letting Yuuri do it all by himself*
Yuuri - *carefully sets his arm back in the water, making sure to rinse all the soap off before leaning across the tub to do the same with his other arm/once he finishes with his arms he pauses, staring at his chest for a moment/slowly moves his hand with the soap to run along his chest, holding his breath as if that would stop any blush from appearing*
Wolfram - *grins up at him, enjoying every one of his reactions* "You're going to kill yourself if you hold your breath for too long..."
Yuuri - *quickly lets out the breath, pausing to stare at him for a moment/pouts, going back to focusing on the task at hand/he wasn't going to let Wolfram tease him like that! no!/grumbles*
Wolfram - *grins more, then lifts a hand to pat at one of his cheeks* "So cute..."
Yuuri - *lets out a huff, stopping once he finished washing his chest* "Sit up..." *grumbles about how he wasn't cute*
Wolfram - *sits up at he was told, shaking his head lightly at his adorable grumbling*
Yuuri - *lets out a small sigh, moving to wash his back*
Wolfram - *sighs softly again, leaning back into the touch just the slightest bit/it was nice to be pampered and taken care of every once in a while*
Yuuri - *finishes washing and rinsing off his back, but pauses, staring at it for a moment before leaning closer to kiss him between his shoulder blades/unable to stop himself*
Wolfram - *jumps and squeaks a little, not expecting it/looks over his shoulder at him curiously, a light blush staining his cheeks*
Yuuri - *blinks at him, greatly amused by the reaction/leans close to kiss him again in the same spot*
Wolfram - *blushes a little more* "Yuuri...?" *well that was definitely new...*
Yuuri - *kisses him again before slowly pulling back some* "Hmm?"
Wolfram - *looks a little confused, his face now a light shade of red* "What was that for...?"
Yuuri - *blinks, a bit confused as well* "You... you don't want me to...?"
Wolfram - *quickly shakes his head* "No... I mean, yes... I mean... I... I don't mind, it's just... different..."
Yuuri - "Oh..." *pauses, still a little confused* "Do... you not like it...?"
Wolfram - "No, I... it's not that... I said I don't mind..."
Yuuri - *watches him a bit more/curious* "You're blushing..."
Wolfram - *blushes even more as it was pointed out to him* "S-so...?"
Yuuri - *smiles lightly at him/he was really, really cute* "Why...?"
Wolfram - "I... I don't know..." *it wasn't like he could control it!! he didn't blush by choice!!*
Yuuri - *smiles a little more/with soap still in hand, he reaches out to wrap his arm around Wolfram’s chest, pulling him a bit closer to kiss his back again*
Wolfram - *sits still and allows him to, his face feeling unbelievably hot as his cheeks burned red*
Yuuri - *places little kisses all along the blond's back, pausing to take a little more time to trace his shoulder blades with his lips*
Wolfram - *lets out a soft little noise of approval/lifts his wet hands to frame his own face, hoping the water would cool his cheeks down at least a little*
Yuuri - *wraps his other arm around the blond as well, tightly around his chest, holding him in place as he kissed him a few more times, moving up to kiss the back of his neck*
Wolfram - *eventually lowers his hands - they weren't doing much to help anyway; if anything, having them there only made him more aware of how hot his face was at the moment - and shuts his eyes, tilting his head just bit to make his neck a little more accessible*
Yuuri - *kisses his neck a couple more times before slowly trailing back down between his shoulder blades again/pauses, curious/licks along his spine, back up to his neck*
Wolfram - *gasps loudly and jumps again, the water around him splashing a little and lapping at the sides of the bath/his face flames even brighter, though he didn't think that was possible considering it had already been pretty red before*
Yuuri - *tightens his grip a little more at the jump, trying to hold him still as he licked along his spine again*
Wolfram - *groans, covering his mouth with his hand to prevent it from being too loud*
Yuuri - *greatly amused with the blond's reactions, but slowly releases him just a bit, though still keeping his arms around him, reaching down a little to gently rub the bar of soap along the blond's stomach since he stopped before getting that far earlier*
Wolfram - *wishes his face weren't as red as it felt/can hardly turn to look at Yuuri, afraid he'd only blush more/what the heck had gotten into the wimp?*
Yuuri - *pulls back a little more after a while/softly* "You need to get your hair wet..."
Wolfram - *quietly* "... how...?" *can't really think of any way to do it in a small bath without it being the slightest bit awkward/definitely not used to bathing in such cramped little spaces*
Yuuri - *lets out a small sigh, setting the bar of soap down/places both his hands into the water, forming a cup with them/as softly as before* "Close your eyes..."
Wolfram - *closes his eyes*
Yuuri - *waits a moment to make sure he had his eyes closed before lifting the makeshift cup of water up over his head, releasing it to wet his hair/repeats several more times*
Wolfram - *squeezes his eyes shut tighter at the feel of the water in his hair, some of it dripping down his face*
Yuuri - *once he thought his hair was wet enough, he leans a little around the blond to gently brush the water from his face/amused that he was still pretty red*
Wolfram - *keeps his eyes shut even when the water was brushed from his face/doesn't want to look at Yuuri until his blushing was back under control*
Yuuri - *takes the shampoo next, squeezing some into his hand/moves his free hand to cover over the top of the blond's eyes, just incase any dripped, then starts to work the semi-liquid into his hair*
Wolfram - *sits still, patiently, keeping his eyes closed the entire time*
Yuuri - *makes sure to wash all of the blond's hair, gently scrubbing the bubbles into his hair/once he was sure he had it all washed, he says quietly* "Lean your head back a bit..."
Wolfram - *leans his head back like Yuuri told him to*
Yuuri - *smiles at him, letting out a small sigh before starting to rinse out his hair, taking a little longer than it had before since he was only using one hand now*
Wolfram - *continues to allow Yuuri to wash his hair, making not a single move nor speaking a word*
Yuuri - *pauses a moment after rinsing the last of the shampoo out of his hair/decides to take advantage of the fact that Wolfram's eyes were closed, carefully moving his hand from his eyes to hold the side of his face, leaning closer to kiss him deeply/it wasn't his fault he looked so cute...*
Wolfram - *gasps a little, not expecting the kiss - he couldn't exactly see, after all/that doesn't stop him from kissing back, though, and he does almost immediately*
Yuuri - *kisses him passionately, wrapping his free arm around his back to pull him closer/or as close as he could with the tub in the way*
Wolfram - *turns a bit in the water so that kissing him over the side of the tub is a little more comfortable, raising his arms to their normal position around his neck*
Yuuri - *could really care less that his clothes were getting a bit wet from being so close Wolfram/gratefully moves around some once the blond did to kiss him easier*
Wolfram - *sinks one of his hands into Yuuri's hair, unintentionally pulling on some of it - though it's a light tug, nothing painful/would really like to be a lot closer, but the side of the bath was in the way*
Yuuri - *slides the hand framing the blond's face softly down his neck and across his chest to join his other arm in holding him, gripping onto him tightly and leaning further over the edge of the tub as if that would make them any closer*
Wolfram - *groans a bit in annoyance, tempted to just climb right out and fix the little issue they had with being close/stops himself, however, knowing he'd probably get Yuuri completely wet if he did*
Yuuri - *getting a bit frustrated with the tub situation as well/kisses him for just a bit longer before pulling back to catch his breath, though still holding onto him*
Wolfram - *whines a little in disappointment, but can't deny the fact that he's a bit out of breath, too/pants heavily, his face once again flushed*
Yuuri - *leans close to him, gently moving his forehead against his as he tried to control his breathing/mumbles quietly* "I love you..." *and would really like to be a lot closer to him....*
Wolfram - *whispers back* "I love you, too..." *and is beginning to wonder if he should take back what he said before about Yuuri being predictable/the whole kissing and licking of the back had been anything but... not that he'd minded at all...*
Yuuri - *sighs lightly, pulling back a bit to reach for the conditioner, though not nearly enough to make Wolfram release his hold around his neck/pours some of the semi-liquid into his hand, reaching up once more to brush back the blond's bangs, protectively covering his eyes before rubbing it into his hair*
Wolfram - *sighs a little bit, letting him continue on/figures the faster he finished the faster he could get out and really cuddle*
Yuuri - *gently tilts Wolfram's head back so he could rinse out his hair/wraps his arms around the blond's back once he was done*
Wolfram - *opens his eyes to look at him once he didn't feel the water being poured on top of his head any more/finds himself unable to keep from blushing again/so much for thinking Yuuri'd be the one with the red face by the time he was done...*
Yuuri - *smiles lovingly at his blush/teasing* "Do I pass...?"
Wolfram - *looks at him, confused* "'Pass...?'"
Yuuri - "Getting you cleaned up. Did I make high enough marks to pass?"
Wolfram - *manages to snort lightly* "It's not like I was testing you or anything, just seeing if I could actually get you to do it..."
Yuuri - *shrugs, still smiling* "Will you let me, again?"
Wolfram - *blushes more* "You want to...?"
Yuuri - *watches him curiously/being honest* "Well... yeah... if that was okay with you... I mean... I'm sure you could do it all much better and easier yourself... but... I dunno... I liked it..."
Wolfram - "You... you liked it...?" *curious, though he didn't know why he should be/with how Yuuri seemed to enjoy dressing him, he should have figured he'd like bathing him just the same*
Yuuri - *ends up flushing just lightly* "It gives me an excuse to be closer to you..."
Wolfram - *flushes a little more as well, turning away slightly in the hopes that Yuuri wouldn't see it - or at least it wouldn't be as noticeable/grumbles embarrassedly about how Yuuri likes to baby him*
Yuuri - *does notice/watches him even closer, tilting his head to the side, curious* "You don't want me to baby you....?"
Wolfram - *mumbles quietly* "I didn't say that..." *it was just a little overwhelming some times*
Yuuri - *continues to watch him, lifting a hand to stroke at his wet hair* "Oh..."
Wolfram - *keeps mumbling softly, staring down into the water again until he can get the color in his cheeks to lessen* "Wimp..."
Yuuri - *grins at that, brushing at his hair some more* "Yours..."
Wolfram - *nods lightly in agreement*
Yuuri - *leans closer to give him a light kiss before pulling back again* "So... Do you think you're clean enough to get out...?"
Wolfram - "I suppose..." *his face is still flushed, though he carefully begins to stand, shivering a little bit without the warm water surrounding him*
Yuuri - *quickly gets up as well, grabbing for a towel to unfold and wrap around the blond as he got out of the tub/pulls him to his chest as he started to pat him dry* "Here... let me help..."
Wolfram - *doesn't argue, and merely stands there and lets Yuuri do everything for him again*
Yuuri - *apparently enjoying himself... a lot.../gently pats Wolfram dry, wrapping the towel tightly around him before turning to get the clothes he brought down for him - a pair of his mom's pants and one of his mom's cute little purple shirts*
Wolfram - *waits for Yuuri to hand him the clothes, wondering what sort of an outfit he'd gotten for him this time/thinks again on how it seemed as if Yuuri liked picking out clothes for him, then wonders if he should be worried at all*
Yuuri - *holds out the pair of light khaki colored pants and the purple, tiny white flower patterned V-neck shirt with lace around the bottom and sleeves/apparently very pleased with himself*
Wolfram - *looks at the clothes carefully before beginning to pull them on/kind of likes the purple shirt - but then he kind of likes the color purple/also begins to wonder if Yuuri had some strange sort of obsession with him and little flowers/first he'd thought his 'cute' pajamas would have flowers on them, and now this shirt...*
Yuuri - *patiently waits for him to get dressed before pulling the bottle from Gisela out of his back pocket and handing it to him/mumbles, knowing that Wolfram didn't like how it tasted* "Before I forget..."
Wolfram - *pouts a bit, but takes the bottle from him anyway, uncorking it and forcing himself to quickly drink the vile tasting substance within/gags a little, but keeps it down, making a face as soon as it'd cleared his throat and was making its way into his stomach/stupid Gisela and her stupid nasty tasting medicines - is still convinced that there's something she could do to make it taste at least a little better*
Yuuri - *gathers up the discarded clothes while Wolfram drank the medicine/holds out his hand for the bottle once he was finished* "I'm going to go take these upstairs, okay?"
Wolfram - *nods, handing the bottle back to him*
Yuuri - *looks over the blond in his new outfit, flushing lightly, but quickly turning away to open the door to start heading upstairs/it wasn't his fault that he was so cute!! it wasn't!*
Wolfram - *gives Yuuri an odd look when he flushes, then rolls his eyes behind his back as he headed out of the bathroom and up the stairs/returns to his spot on the couch, remembering the toast and drink Yuuri's mother had brought out for him a little while ago and figures he may as well try to eat as much of it as he can/picks up a piece of the toast and starts to munch on it slowly*
Yuuri - *hurries up the stairs, frowning again at the mess in his room, but would much rather be with Wolfram than clean it up/drops off the clothes and little bottle before making his way back down the stairs, moving over to the couch to sit on the floor in front of it again*
Wolfram - *gives Yuuri another look when he returns, but doesn't say anything, continuing to munch/eventually picks up the drink as well, taking a sip and making a face at the way it felt/pulls the glass away to peer at it oddly* "What is this?"
Yuuri - *blinks at him, reaching up to take the glass from him, taking a small sip before handing it back* "Ginger ale..."
Wolfram - "Ginger... ale..." *nearly panics at the word 'ale'/looks at Yuuri, surprised* "Is that some sort of alcohol?!"
Yuuri - *quickly shakes his head, hearing his near panic* "No! Mom would never give you something with alcohol! It's just the name. It has nothing to do with real ale or whatever."
Wolfram - *calms down instantly/hadn't honestly thought Yuuri's mother would give him alcohol, but these Earth people were weird, so you never know/cautiously sips at the drink again* "Why does it feel funny?"
Yuuri - *grins at him* "It's just carbonated... Like... air inside the drink. It's a soda."
Wolfram - "Oh..." *he didn't really get it - as always - but he guessed the whole air being inside the liquid thing explained why it was sort of... bubbly.../takes another few sips before going back to his toast*
Yuuri - *amused* "Do you like it...?"
Wolfram - *looks at him, a little confused* "Like what? The drink?" *gives it another look, considering it* "It's okay... I guess... it just feels weird..." *he wasn't used to this 'carbonated' stuff*
Yuuri - *shrugs* "I had to choose the wines for the wedding the other day... and I thought it would look kinda weird if you didn't have any... so I was thinking about getting some sparkling cider for just us... We can even change the labels so it doesn't look out of place..." *just one of the many ponderings he'd done over the past week to try and keep Wolfram off his mind... though thinking about the wedding kinda defeated the purpose...*
Wolfram - *glances at him curiously, speaking to him in between bites* "Sparkling cider...?" *wonders if he's supposed to know what that is/he wasn't exactly a drink connoisseur, but then he didn't drink much besides milk, water, juice, and tea - he'd tried a few wines, but hadn't liked them very much, and his mother had convinced him to try a few other alcoholic beverages, but he hadn't enjoyed those very much either; he just didn't really like the taste of alcohol... actually he didn't like the taste of a lot of things - he could name more foods and drinks that he didn't like than ones that he did*
Yuuri - *nods* "It's like... juice... with bubbles... I thought you might want to try that instead... Less questions about why you weren't drinking anything..." *pauses, panicking slightly* "But don't drink anything anyone else gives you, okay?? Just what I say is okay."
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes again* "Why would I drink something someone else gave me?? I'm not stupid. I can smell the difference between juice and alcohol. And even if I wasn't pregnant, I wouldn't drink any of the wine anyway..." *had actually been planning on sticking with water or plain juice, but if Yuuri had something else in mind, he figured he could give it a try*
Yuuri - "Oh..." *feels stupid/fidgets a bit where he sat on the ground*
Wolfram - *shakes his head at him, munching on another piece of toast/his stomach was feeling marginally better, except for the fact that it was a bit on the empty side* "Have you had any other ideas for the wedding...?" *figures he'd at least ask, though Yuuri wasn't usually one to think and plan for parties/he typically just went and did what people told him to do - which, more often than not, was nothing more than smiling at and schmoozing with the guests*
Yuuri - *fidgets a bit more/grinning sheepishly up at him* "I got the flowers ordered...?"
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes once again* "Yeah, after I got on you about it..." *really, Yuuri was hopeless*
Yuuri - *pouts some* "Sorry..." *pauses, trying to think of all the things Gunter had talked with him about over the week - can't remember a thing... he was too distracted anyway...*
Wolfram - "Don't be... planning parties isn't exactly your sort of thing..." *not that it was really his sort of thing either, but he figured he was much better at it than Yuuri was/not to mention it would be expected of him to do so more often once they were married - putting together all sorts of balls and playing the 'hostess' for all of their foreign friends*
Yuuri - "No... I guess it's not..." *grumbles under his breath about how paperwork took up most of his life anyway...*
Wolfram - *makes no comment on his grumbling this time/pauses in eating his toast as well, staring off into space as he thought of what life would be like after they were married/a lot of things would change in his life, that was for sure*
Yuuri - *glances up at him, watching him as he seemed to zone out/curious and a bit worried, hoping that nothing serious was bothering him* "Wolf...?"
Wolfram - *shakes his head, snapping out of it/looks towards him curiously* "Hmmm...?"
Yuuri - *scoots a bit closer to the couch, placing both his arms on the edge before resting his head on top* "What are you thinking...?"
Wolfram - "Just... how different things will be... for me... once we're married..." *he'd known it all along, but it hadn't really sunk in yet; now he thinks it's beginning to*
Yuuri - *blinks curiously, not really understanding* "Different...?"
Wolfram - *nods* "I won't be a soldier anymore. I won't be able to fight at all. I'll be protected as much as you are, instead of doing the protecting. I'll have to stay behind whenever you go away - it would be too dangerous if both of us went, and... all of my responsibilities will change completely. I'll have to plan parties and social gatherings instead of patrolling or training; I'll have to organize the maids and the rest of the household instead of a troop of soldiers. And then... taking care of the baby... and any other children we have..." *frowns a little bit/it wasn't as if all these thoughts were upsetting, it was just a big change in such a short period of time* "I'll be... domesticated..."
Yuuri - *stares at him, trying to put himself in his shoes, trying to understand how he felt/doesn't really know what to tell him* "Wolf..."
Wolfram - *shakes his head again/it didn't bother him - it really didn't - it would just be a little strange for a while, and would take some getting used to* "The whole time you've been here, all those sorts of things have been left up to my mother and Gunter..." *and Anissina to some extent, since she'd seemed to form some weird "women are better than men" sisterhood with the maids* "Now I'll have to, and... it'll just be... odd... waking up everyone morning, knowing that instead of practicing or going on some small mission or another, I'll be picking out drapes and table settings..."
Yuuri - *can't help but feel upset at hearing everything Wolfram had to do/frowns sadly at him*
Wolfram - *keeps thinking about it, picking up his glass again to take a few more sips of the ginger ale/thinks it was probably for the best that he'd allowed Greta and his mother to teach him how to knit, since he'd soon be doing all sorts of other domestic things anyway/rolls his eyes and wonders if he should ask his mother to teach him how to embroider next*
Yuuri - *watches him a while longer before finally letting out a small sigh, mumbling mostly to himself* "I can't see you being... domesticated..."
Wolfram - *glances at him, raising an eyebrow* "You can't...?" *he'd been getting enough practice at it since planning for the wedding had begun*
Yuuri - *fidgets* "Won't you get bored...?" *was mostly upset that he wouldn't be able to go with him when he left the castle*
Wolfram - *shrugs* "I don't know. Mother seems to think all of that stuff is fun, and Gunter's never really had a problem with it. And it's not like planning the wedding has been exceptionally bad. There's actually more work to it all than I had thought there would be. Plus, I doubt I'll be very bored once the baby's born." *smiles wistfully, placing his drink back down to rest a hand against his stomach* "If he or she ends up being outgoing and adventurous like you, I'll definitely have my hands full."
Yuuri - *stares at him, slowly uncrossing his arms to place his hand over the blond's on his stomach/there was no way he was going to ever leave him unless he absolutely had to* "Wolfram..."
Wolfram - *stares back at him, a small smile still on his face* "Yes...?"
Yuuri - *gently squeezes his hand, smiling lightly* "I can't wait..."
Wolfram - *his smile widens a bit* "Neither can I..." *looks down at their hands, and places his other one over top of Yuuri's, keeping it in place* "We never did come to any firm decisions about names..." *not that they didn't have a lot of time, and not that he hadn't been thinking about things like that when Yuuri had been gone*
Yuuri - *laughs a little awkwardly, reaching up with his other hand to brush at the blond's hair/names... right...* "No... we never did..."
Wolfram - *pouts a little* "You don't sound very interested in that sort of thing either..." *not that he could blame him/thinks they've already established that any sort of planning is just not Yuuri's forte*
Yuuri - *quickly shakes his head* "No! It's not that I'm not interested... I just... don't think any name I'd think of would be good enough..." *he did have that slight self esteem problem, after all*
Wolfram - *looks at him curiously* "Why wouldn't they be good enough...?"
Yuuri - *sighs lightly, shaking his head* "Because names are important... I don't think I could pick a name worthy of any child of ours..."
Wolfram - *squeezes his hand some* "I'm sure that's not true. You just have to use your brain and think on it for a while."
Yuuri - *squeezes his hand back, laughing lightly* "What brain...?"
Wolfram - *laughs lightly, removing one hand to poke at his forehead* "The one in your head."
Yuuri - *squeezes his eyes shut to prepare for impact, opening one eye curiously after the poke was over/teasing still* "Ooh... That's what's up there..."
Wolfram - *plays along with his teasing* "Well... that's what's supposed to be up there..."
Yuuri - *grins* "Ya learn something new every day, huh? Today I learned I have a brain!"
Wolfram - "Or you learned you might have a brain. We still have no proof of you actually having one for sure."
Yuuri - *lets out a small gasp* "You're right... How will I know for sure? Cut it open and check?"
Wolfram - *wrinkles his nose at him* "Eww! That's gross!" *flesh wounds he could deal with/anything that dealt with brains and guts spilling everywhere was a different story*
Yuuri - *grins/amused* "I was just kidding."
Wolfram - *sticks his tongue out at him, before quickly going back to teasing him* "Don't talk about disgusting things like that; I might end up throwing up all over you..."
Yuuri - *laughs at that, still amused* "It should be good practice for when the baby arrives."
Wolfram - *giggles* "I think my throwing up and a baby spitting up are two completely different things."
Yuuri - *shrugs* "I can handle it."
Wolfram - "Oh, sure. I can only imagine. You've never even changed a diaper before, much less cleaned spit up off your uniforms." *not that he had either; but, hey, he'd soon be the domesticated one - he'd learn those things faster than Yuuri*
Yuuri - *eyes widen a little as some of the color in his cheeks bleach/squeaks, trying to sound confident* "I-I can handle it..."
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes* "Or you'll be completely grossed out... you wimp..."
Yuuri - *pouts at him* "No faith in me at all..."
Wolfram - *nods in agreement, teasing him still* "None." *that was a lie, of course/he was sure Yuuri would be an excellent father*
Yuuri - *groans, burying his face into the couch/mumbles* "Whatever..."
Wolfram - *smiles down at him, moving a hand to stroke at his hair*
Yuuri - *stays completely still, not wanting the blond to stop what he was doing/wait a few long moments before curiously turning his head to look up at him* "I love you, Wolf..."
Wolfram - *tucks a few strands of dark hair behind his ear* "I love you, too, Yuuri..."
Yuuri - *smiles brightly up at him, gently squeezing his hand again*
Wolfram - *smiles back just as brightly, still lightly sliding his fingers through his hair* "I really hope the baby looks like you..."
Yuuri - *rolls his eyes a bit, but still smiling* "Why? You're much more beautiful than I am."
Wolfram - *smiles a little more/playful* "Well, then he or she can have your hair and eyes, and my face."
Yuuri - *thinks about it for a moment, but nods in agreement* "That sounds fair enough..."
Wolfram - *giggles some again, knowing they really had no control over things like that*
Yuuri - *smiles up at him, reaching to brush at his hair some more* "How are you feeling...?"
Wolfram - "I feel fine..." *and he meant it, mostly* "My stomach's still a little upset, but it's nothing like earlier."
Yuuri - *watches him, a bit worried* "Are you hungry, then? I can make you something for lunch, if you'd like..."
Wolfram - *snorts* "You? Cook something?"
Yuuri - *pouts* "I can cook... It's easy..." *yeah... put it in the microwave and go...*
Wolfram - *clearly doesn't believe him* "I'd like to see you try..."
Yuuri - *lets out a small huff, moving to stand to his feet* "Fine... I'll make you some soup right now..." *soup would be perfect for an unset stomach*
Wolfram - *stands up to follow him, smirking all the while* "This, I have to see..." *thinks Yuuri could find away to ruin anything, even something as simple as soup*
----------
Hey everyone! Sorry for the super long wait. A lot of stuff has been going on and I just haven't had the time or motivation to sit and put this up. It seems simple to get up, but I've gotta make sure all the italics are italicsed and get rid of screennames and times and things like that... and then space them out and... yeah...
Anyway, enough excuses! Look?? Aren't they so cute together?? All Yuuri and Wolfram. Yay~
I have a request, though... Can we please, please not bash Iris? I know that there are those with strong opinions about her, but she's one of Mikage and my favorite characters. And while it does remain primarily YuuRam for the entirety of the plot, etc. Iris is a crucial part of the plot, and there's no changing that. So please, please, please, please don't say anything bad about her? Thank you for understanding! It's just disheartening when she's getting jumped on and not even given a chance to develop. <3
- Wolfram and Yuuri try to decide on where they want to go on their honeymoon
- Yuuri and pools of water don't really get along
- "It's 'Mama', Yuu-chan!!"
- Wolfram and Yuuri talk to each other about how they fell in love
Covering the Bases
Part Forty-Six - Bath Time
Yuuri - *nods once more* "Whenever I started to feel like that... I had to go find someone to bring me a snack... I thought that would fix it..."
Wolfram - *now he has to lift a hand and cover his mouth to keep himself from laughing/the poor, naive little thing.../can't say anything to him, fearing he'd only start giggling if he tried*
Yuuri - *fidgets a little, not really knowing if Wolfram was covering his mouth because he was... horrified... or... something..../forces himself to laugh, though a bit nervously* "It's pretty silly, isn't it...?"
Wolfram - *pulls his hand away, shaking his head slowly* "No, it's... it's very... you..." *quirky and naive*
Yuuri - *blinks at him, not really sure what he meant* "It's very... me...?"
Wolfram - *nods* "I honestly can't imagine you realizing it any other way... well... not in a way that... that someone would normally realize it..."
Yuuri - *blinks some more, still a little confused, but leaves it at that/grins at the memory, shaking his head a little* "Gunter started to think that I was developing an eating problem..."
Wolfram - *laughs lightly* "I'm surprised you didn't start gaining a lot of weight..."
Yuuri - *shakes his head again* "I was getting a bit worried about that, too... So I had Conrad train an extra hour with me every morning..."
Wolfram - *snorts* "I'm sure Gwendal got angry when you weren't in the office on time..." *raises an eyebrow* "Unless you started getting up an hour earlier to make up for it..." *he himself wouldn't have noticed; he usually stayed asleep or just laid in bed longer than Yuuri did, unless there was something he had to do in the mornings*
Yuuri - *winces* "Y-yeah... Gwendal yelled at me after being late a couple times.... so then I started getting up earlier... Conrad said it was okay, since he was already awake anyway..."
Wolfram - *lifts a hand to stroke at Yuuri's hair* "It's a wonder you weren't exhausted all the time..."
Yuuri - *shrugs, though flushing lightly* "I... I thought it would be better if I was exhausted... I... I thought that if I was tired... then I wouldn't think about you as much..."
Wolfram - *looks at him, smiling at his light flush - so cute - curious* "Did it work?"
Yuuri - *shakes his head* "No... It made it worse... Gwendal and Gunter got mad at me and accused me of daydreaming too much..."
Wolfram - "You daydreamed about me?" *can't help feeling all giddy inside/this was the first time he'd ever really heard about things like that/thinking that Yuuri had been as love-sick as he was made him feel good about himself, too*
Yuuri - *flushes a little more, nodding* "Y-yeah... I did..." *pauses, shaking his head* "Gunter had Gisela come in to make sure I wasn't sick at least a dozen times...."
Wolfram - "What... what were some of your daydreams like...?"
Yuuri - *stares at him, flushing brightly* "W-what...??"
Wolfram - *grins a little bit* "It want to know what some of your daydreams were like..."
Yuuri - *shrinks down a little/this was embarrassing.../forces himself to talk, though* "I... I liked to picture you sleeping... most of the times they would be of you falling asleep under one of the trees in the garden, almost completely hidden behind a wall of flowers..." *pauses, but forces himself to go on* "And... I would picture myself going out to meet you... but you would be so fast asleep that I would just have to hold you in my arms... and when you woke up, you'd smile at me... and I'd smile back..." *trails off, feeling really corny for dreaming up stuff like that*
Wolfram - *grins even more/it was just like Yuuri to be so sappy and romantic* "Is that it...?"
Yuuri - *shakes his head, swallowing to try and stop his throat from being so dry* "I liked to push you on a swing... In our own little secret place... where no one else would find us... and then we'd climb up into this huge tree and just sit there and watch the sun set...."
Wolfram - *takes a moment to try and think if there was a nice little tree somewhere near the castle where they could attach a swing - that might be fun/smiles at him lovingly* "Anything else...?"
Yuuri - *blushes a bit darker* "I liked being your knight in shining armor... and rescue you from different dangers..."
Wolfram - *brushes at some of his hair again* "I'm sorry you disappoint you, but usually I'm the one saving you..."
Yuuri - *stares at him for a bit, then pouts, though moving a little closer so he could reach his hair easier at the same time* "Yeah... well... At least let me think I'm cool in my fantasies, okay...?"
Wolfram - *snorts lightly, brushing at his hair some more, liking the way the dark strands slipped through his fingers* "You can think what you want..." *smiles some more/he really liked hearing Yuuri say all these sweet things* "Any more fantasies I should know about...?"
Yuuri - *pouts more, unable to stop from flushing brightly again* "Maybe..."
Wolfram - *almost giggles/he was so cute! especially when he flushed like that!* "Tell me... please...?"
Yuuri - *pouting and feeling really embarrassed about telling Wolfram all of his stupid daydreams/mumbles quietly* "There's this little meadow or something in the mountains or somewhere surrounded by tall trees... and the meadow is filled with wild flowers... and we'd lay on our backs just staring at the perfect blue sky..." *why he felt more embarrassed about that one daydream, he had no idea... but he did...*
Wolfram - "That's nothing to blush about, you know..." *he should have figured Yuuri would have these sorts of sappy little daydreams/he seemed to enjoy the simple, romantic things*
Yuuri - *blushes darker, despite himself/mumbles again* "I know..."
Wolfram - *tugs lightly at a few strands of his hair, playful* "Then why so embarrassed?"
Yuuri - *stares at the blond before glancing away a bit* "Because... It sounds stupid... and it's things only I've thought up before... kinda like me giving you my diary to read..."
Wolfram - *huffs a little, tugging lightly on his hair again* "It is not stupid..."
Yuuri - *glances back at him, blinking curiously* "You.... don't think it's stupid...? All those things...?"
Wolfram - *shakes his head slowly* "Of course not. Why would I?"
Yuuri - *feels kinda stupid for thinking that Wolfram thought what he thought up was stupid* "W-well... I... it's just not... I.... I don't know..."
Wolfram - *lets out a soft sigh* "It makes me happy to know that you've thought of me all this time, even when I didn't realize it..."
Yuuri - *blinks again, feeling a bit relieved* "Really...?"
Wolfram - *nods, still smiling* "Of course." *playful* "I'm selfish, remember? I want you to think of me all the time."
Yuuri - *lets out a small sigh of relief* "Of course..." *sits up on his knees some to hover a little over the blond* "I love you..."
Wolfram - *continues to smile at him sweetly, moving his hand from his hair to stroke the side of his face* "I love you, too..."
Yuuri - *stares at him for a few moments longer before leaning a bit closer to kiss him*
Wolfram - *kisses him back lightly, keeping his hand in place along the side of his face/thinks that Yuuri is such an adorable wimp*
Miko - *happily makes her way out from the kitchen with a plate of toast and a glass in her hands/smiling brightly* "Wol-chan? Are you feeling any better?" *stops at the sight of them and quickly turning around to give them privacy/giggles to herself* "Oh my..."
Yuuri - *was going to kiss the blond more, but at the sound of his mother, he quickly pulls back to shrink down next to the couch, burying his face into the cushion again/muffled* "Mom!!!" *jeez!!*
Wolfram - *actually isn't embarrassed at all, and has to resist the temptation to laugh at Yuuri's reaction/at least Miko had the decency to turn around, unlike stupid Gunter who just stared, or stupid Conrart who butted into their business and pulled them apart, or Gwendal who got angry and made them too scared to do anything like that when he was anywhere nearby*
Miko - *cautiously glances back over her shoulder, giggling again* "Yuu-chan~ It's 'Mama,' okay?" *steps around the table to set the plate and glass down before placing her hands on her hips* "Yuu-chan, don't be a pig and eat all of that. It's for Wol-chan once he feels like he can eat something." *yay toast and gingerale!*
Yuuri - *turns his head to the side to frown at his mom/what the heck?? he wasn't a pig!*
Wolfram - *glances up at the woman gratefully/his stomach was still a little upset, but talking with Yuuri had managed to distract him from it/smiles* "Thank you, Mother..."
Yuuri - *pouts up at his mother* "Don't I get anything for breakfast...?"
Miko - *smiles at him, holding up her index finger to wave in the air, knowingly* "You know where the kitchen is, Yuu-chan. Get something for yourself if you're hungry." *turns to make her way to the door* "Mama is going to do some errands now. I'll be back later! Bye bye!" *leaves the room*
Yuuri - *sputters/what the heck?!*
Wolfram - *giggles a little, turning his smile towards Yuuri/teases him* "Have you gotten so used to having maids that you've forgotten how to do things yourself...?"
Yuuri - *pouts at him* "No..." *but jeez... if she was going to bring something for Wolfram, she could have brought something for him, too!*
Wolfram - *strokes at his hair again/mock pouts at him* "Don't pout..."
Yuuri - *pouts more*
Wolfram - *pouts more as well, mocking him*
Yuuri - *raises an eyebrow at him, easily noticing how he did the same thing* "Are you mocking me...?"
Wolfram - *shows him a small grin* "Why would I do something like that...?"
Yuuri - *grumbles about how he was just like that/buries his face back into the couch*
Wolfram - *pets his hair some more* "You do realize people can still hear you when you grumble like that, right?"
Yuuri - *tenses up some/muffled and blushing lightly, though it couldn't really be seen at the moment* "N-no they can't...."
Wolfram - "Yes, they can..." *as long as they were paying attention, of course/some people just didn't care enough to listen in when he did it*
Yuuri - *whimpers some, flushing darker, though still refusing to fully believe something like that*
Wolfram - *gives him a little comforting pat* "It's alright. It's cute."
Yuuri - *pulls his head back from the couch just enough to pout at him* "Whatever..."
Wolfram - *moves his hand from his hair to gently trail a finger down his nose, stopping to lightly tap at the tip* "You're cuter than you think you are..."
Yuuri - *crosses his eyes a bit to follow his finger, scrunching up his nose lightly at the tap/he really wasn't as cute as Wolfram though he was... or whatever...* "I'm sure..."
Wolfram - *laughs at him again* "It's true..."
Yuuri - *rolls his eyes a bit* "Whatever... You're way cuter than anyone I know... I've got nothing on you..."
Wolfram - *a small smirk appears on his face* "Haven't we argued over who's cuter before? I think I won, if I remember correctly..." *which he couldn't really, but he usually wins so he figures he must have that time, too*
Yuuri - *sighs lightly* "Technically... we tied... I started and I let you finish... we had the same amount of points..." *grumbles lightly about how he almost never won anything...*
Wolfram - "There's no such thing as a tie. If you let me finish, that means I won, right? You forfeited."
Yuuri - *grumbles* "Whatever..." *crap... he was right...ish...*
Wolfram - *laughs lightly once more* "Sore loser... You know, most of your failures are a result of a forfeit. If you didn't give in so easily, you wouldn't lose as much..." *not that he had any intention of ever letting him win*
Yuuri - *pouts at him* "I am not a sore loser..." *sore loser...*
Wolfram - "Yes, you are..."
Yuuri - "No, I'm not..."
Wolfram - "Yes, you are..."
Yuuri - "No... I'm not..."
Wolfram - "Yes, you are..."
Yuuri - "Nope..."
Wolfram - "Yes..."
Yuuri - *frowns at him* "Just because you're most stubborn than I am most of the time doesn't mean I'm a sore loser... and I know what you're doing..."
Wolfram - *grins wider at him* "I win again..."
Yuuri - *goes from frowning to pouting*
Wolfram - "Awww..." *brushes a finger along his pouting lower lip*
Yuuri - *pouts more, sticking out his tongue to lick the blond's finger*
Wolfram - *giggles, but doesn't pull his hand away* "You're the most adorable wimp I've ever met..."
Yuuri - *rolls his eyes* "Thanks..." *sits up on his knees again to lean closer to Wolfram*
Wolfram - "You should take that as a compliment. Most wimps are annoying..."
Yuuri - *lets out a short laugh* "So what was a compliment...? Well... then I'm proud to be a non-annoying wimp..."
Wolfram - *shakes his head* "But you're not as much of a wimp as you used to be... I don't recall you ever punching anyone until recently..."
Yuuri - *stares down at him, feeling guilty about it* "I... I hadn't punched anyone in a long time..."
Wolfram - "If I hadn't been so worried about you, I would have been impressed..."
Yuuri - *blinks/was he serious...?* "Why...?"
Wolfram - "Because I hadn't really expected you to ever hit anyone... not like that..."
Yuuri - *winces a little, not really knowing what Wolfram thought about what he had done, especially since he couldn't really remember it himself* "I... I probably should have thought about what I was doing..."
Wolfram - *snorts* "You were half drunk. There isn't much thinking you could have been able to do."
Yuuri - *frowns a little* "Yeah... well... I guess I just won't ever drink again... not if I end up not knowing what I'm doing..."
Wolfram - *pouts at him playfully* "But I didn't get to see you completely drunk..."
Yuuri - *sputters* "Wha...??"
Wolfram - *grins* "I wanted to see what you were like completely drunk, not just half there."
Yuuri - *frowns at him a little more* "Yeah... well... sorry..." *grumbles about how that would have been much, much worse....*
Wolfram - *as always, he can hear his grumbling* "Of course..." *or he would have been too drunk to do anything*
Yuuri - *sighs, content on just staring into his fiance’s eyes* "Maybe another time..."
Wolfram - *smiles at him, still playful* "Don't get drunk at the wedding. We won't have much of a wedding night if you do..."
Yuuri - *blinks at him, feeling himself blush lightly/mumbles quietly* "O-okay... I won't..."
Wolfram - *trails a finger over one of his flushed cheeks* "What are you blushing for this time...?"
Yuuri - *shakes his head* "Nothing..."
Wolfram - *pouts at him/whines a bit* "Tell me..."
Yuuri - *swallows, flushing a little darker* "W-well... You said that... you're getting 'cute' pajamas to wear..." *trails off, unable to force himself to say anything more lest he blush more*
Wolfram - *raises an eyebrow at him, curious* "Or so my mother keeps telling me..."
Yuuri - "Oh...." *pauses, feeling stupid* "So... you might not...?"
Wolfram - "Oh, I'm sure I will, you just have to keep my mother's definition of 'cute' in mind..." *he could only imagine all the things she had planned for him, and he was sure he'd be embarrassed to death when she gave them to him*
Yuuri - *well... knowing his mother... he could probably guess what her definition of 'cute' was* "Oh..."
Wolfram - *his eyebrow goes back to its raised position* "And why are you thinking of 'cute' pajamas, anyway...?" *either the wimp was as perverted as his mother, or he'd thought they'd be 'cute' in the literal sense*
Yuuri - *shrugs* "I was just wondering how you'd look..."
Wolfram - *more curious* "How did you think I would look?" *or maybe that wasn't the question he should be asking him* "What, exactly, were you thinking of when you thought 'cute?'"
Yuuri - *blinks at him, blushing a bit darker* "I-I dunno... Maybe something with pretty little flowers... Or... something like that..." *yeah, his definition of 'cute' and Celi's definition of 'cute' probably didn't match up at all, but did he know that? of course not...*
Wolfram - *snorts lightly* "'Pretty little flowers?'" *he could not, for the life of him, imagine his mother giving him something with flowers on it/ribbons, maybe; lace, probably, but no little flowers* "I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I don't think there will be any flowers... I'll consider myself fortunate if I get something that actually makes it halfway towards my knees..."
Yuuri - *blinks at him* "Halfway to--...." *oh..../insert mad blushing*
Wolfram - *blushes as well/hey, he'd be the one wearing it, not Yuuri - thinks he has more of a right to be embarrassed*
Yuuri - *coughs lightly, trying to save them from a bit of awkwardness* "Well... I bet you'll look amazing..." *pauses, frowning a little as he tried to imagine what he was suggesting*
Wolfram - "I'm sure I'll look the part of a whore..." *has no idea why his mother likes to wear such revealing clothing/she was the only person he could think of off of the top of his head who did so on a daily basis*
Yuuri - *stares at him for a moment, frowning a little/quietly* "You know I don't like it when you say stuff like that..."
Wolfram - "What?" *pouts a little* "I didn't say I am a whore-" *for once, though he still thought it* "-I said I'll probably look like one..."
Yuuri - *sighs, leaning down to kiss his forehead* "It doesn't matter... I still don't like that word..."
Wolfram - *snorts/mutters* "Whore..."
Yuuri - *pulls back some, frowning sadly at him* "Why do you do that...?"
Wolfram - *looks at him curiously* "Do what...?"
Yuuri - "When I say I don't like something... or don't want you to do something... you do it anyway...? Is it just to spite me...?"
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes* "I can say what I want..." *okay, so maybe it was to spite him, just a little; as way to prove he didn't have as much power over him as he thought/frowns at him some* "What word would you rather I use? 'Concubine?' 'Harlot?' 'Prostitute?' 'Slut?' 'Tart?' 'Tramp?'" *didn't think any of those words were any better/they all pretty much meant the same thing*
Yuuri - *frowns at him more, pulling back to sit just out of the blond's reach* "I would rather you not use any of those words..."
Wolfram - *frowns at him even more, not really liking where this was going/repeats himself* "I can say what I want..."
Yuuri - *lets out a sigh and nods, though doesn't move from where he was/a bit upset that Wolfram insisted on doing something he knew he didn't like... but what could he do besides ask him not to...?* "Fine... I can't stop you anyway..."
Wolfram - "No, you can't... And don't try to. I don't mind it when you're a little more forceful; what I don't like is when you turn into a controlling asshole."
Yuuri - *winces, still feeling horrible for what he did* "Okay..."
Wolfram - "So if I want to call myself or anyone else a whore, I will." *thinks about it for a moment, his frown smoothing out slightly* "Although 'concubine' sounds a little more noble, it just doesn't have the same ring to it as 'whore' does..."
Yuuri - *nods slowly, staring at the ground in front of the couch/even though it pains him deeply to hear such things, he again mumbles:* "Okay..."
Wolfram - "And, you know, I really don't see what your problem with it is." *stares at him seriously* "I accepted it the moment I let you do more than kiss me. Why can't you?"
Yuuri - *fidgets nervously where he sat, not really liking how it turned back on him* "I... I don't know..."
Wolfram - "It's not like anyone else knows it. It's just us." *and his family, but they hardly seemed to care - Gwendal would, though, which is why he'd been trying to keep it a secret* "Plus..." *smirks a little* "I'm not anyone else's. I'm yours..."
Yuuri - *grumbles at the ground even though he still didn't want to accept it* "Damn right you're only mine..."
Wolfram - *smirks more, not really wanting to get him all moody and worked up again, be he did like to see his reactions occasionally/he liked antagonizing every once in a while* "I'm your whore..."
Yuuri - *lets out a huff/was he trying to make him feel better about it or something...?* "I know..."
Wolfram - "So, then what's the problem...?"
Yuuri - *shakes his head/still not accepting it* "You should know by now that it takes a while for me to accept certain things..." *after now long it took him to admit his feelings for the blond...*
Wolfram - "Well say it, then. Maybe openly acknowledging it will help you to accept it." *really just wants to antagonize him more*
Yuuri - *quickly shakes his head* "I won't..."
Wolfram - *pouts at him teasingly* "Don't be a wimp..."
Yuuri - *frowns at the ground* "I won't say it..."
Wolfram - *sits up a little bit to get a better look at him, ignoring his still slightly upset stomach/grins mischievously* "Tell me 'you're my whore.'"
Yuuri - *shakes his head again/stubborn* "No..."
Wolfram - *goes back to pouting* "But it'll make me happy..." *more like it will amuse him*
Yuuri - *glances up to stare at him, feeling a little sick* "How will that make you happy??"
Wolfram - *shrugs* "I'd much rather be your whore than someone else's." *wrinkles his nose a bit* "At least you treat me right..."
Yuuri - *grumbles at the floor again* "Well... I would hope you would..."
Wolfram - *grins again once Yuuri isn't looking at him* "So...? Say it..."
Yuuri - *continues to stare at the floor, trying to convince himself to just say the stupid thing and get it over with/can feel his cheeks heat up drastically/mumbles, barely even a whisper* "You're my whore..."
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes a little/that was pathetic* "Louder..."
Yuuri - *sputters/he couldn't be serious!/mumbles again, louder this time* "You're my whore."
Wolfram - *huffs/again:* "Louder."
Yuuri - *looks up from the floor to frown at him/speaking clearly this time* "You're my whore! Are you happy?? I said it!"
Wolfram - *another eye roll, clearly unimpressed* "You had to force it. Look me in the eye and say it like you mean it. And then don't add any of that 'are you happy' crap at the end; it ruins the effect."
Yuuri - *stares at him in clear disbelief for a moment before dropping his gaze to stare at the floor again/takes a deep breath, finally sitting up again and moving closer to the couch, lifting a hand to caress the blond's cheek, holding it while he gazed into his eyes* "You're my whore... That's all that matters... that you're mine..."
Wolfram - *shivers lightly/wonders if it's strange that that had sounded so nice, so exciting/it makes his breathing quicken, and his face flush, and his heart skip a beat/begins to think that he rather likes Yuuri's possessiveness/being labeled a whore didn't sound nearly as insulting when he said it like that*
Yuuri - *watches him carefully for a few moments, gently brushing his thumb along Wolfram's cheek* "Wolf...?"
Wolfram - *quietly* "Yes...?"
Yuuri - *pauses, smiling lightly at him* "I love you..."
Wolfram - "I love you, too..."
Yuuri - *watches him for a bit longer, then leans in a bit closer to kiss him*
Wolfram - *immediately kisses him back, lifting his arms to wrap them around his neck*
Yuuri - *kisses him deeper, pushing him back some so that he was laying on the pillows again*
Wolfram - *releases a soft little whine as he's pushed back, pulling Yuuri closer, kissing him deeper as well*
Yuuri - *leans over him as best he could with the couch in the way/slides his arms under Wolfram, holding him even closer to him as he kissed him back*
Wolfram - *moves his hands to his back to grip onto his shirt tightly, trying to pull him even closer, kissing him passionately*
Yuuri - *holds him even closer, clinging to him, kissing him back just as passionately*
Wolfram - *groans in the back of his throat, fully enjoying this/forgets his upset stomach, and all the frustrations it brought along with it*
Yuuri - *groans lightly as well, completely forgetting about everything except for Wolfram/he was all that mattered to him, anyway*
Wolfram - *pulls back to take a few quick breaths, opening his eyes to stare at him, smiling/whispers* "I love being yours..."
Yuuri - *stares back at him, panting heavily/smiles lovingly at him* "Thank you for being mine..."
Wolfram - *laughs lightly* "You're welcome..."
Yuuri - *carefully pulls a hand out from under the blond to lift up and brush at his hair, not forgetting that he had been feeling bad earlier* "How are you feeling...?"
Wolfram - *smiles at him* "Okay, I guess..." *his stomach was still bothering him, but not as much as it had been when he'd first woken up*
Yuuri - *asks out of habit* "Do you want me to get you anything...? Are you hungry-....?" *catches himself a bit too late/eyes widen a bit as he quickly shuts his mouth and holds his breath/feels like an idiot, especially since he'd been yelled at the last few times he'd asked that*
Wolfram - *shakes his head, and doesn't feel as annoyed as he had the last time he'd asked him that* "No, I'm fine. I'm a little afraid to eat very much."
Yuuri - *lets out a small sigh of relief/really needed to stop pushing his luck* "Did... you want to take a bath...?" *wanted him to be comfortable, even if he didn't want anything*
Wolfram - *thinks about it for a moment, then nods, thinking it might make him feel at least a little better/if not, at least he'd be clean* "Yeah... I suppose..."
Yuuri - *nods at him* "I... Can you wait here...? I'll go get you some clothes to wear..."
Wolfram - *nods again, agreeing, then remembers something, and though it makes him cringe to think about it, he knew he had to drink it* "Can you get one of the bottles Gisela gave me, too?"
Yuuri - *smiles at him, brushing his hair some more/was going to get him one of the bottles, anyway* "Wait right here... I'll be back before you know it... okay...?"
Wolfram - *smiles lovingly at him* "Okay..."
Yuuri - *leans closer to him to give him a quick kiss before pulling away/dashes up the stairs, quickly raiding his mother's closet for something cute for the blond to wear, then stops by his room to get one of the bottles/winces at the watery mess on the floor, but he'd deal with that later/hurries back down the stairs, sliding to a stop in front of the couch, grinning a bit goofily at Wolfram - he didn't trip on the stairs this time...*
Wolfram - *raises an eyebrow at the goofy smile, wondering what could have possibly put a look like that onto his face* "What...?"
Yuuri - *shakes his head* "It's nothing. Come on, I'll carry you..." *didn't really want to tell him that he was proud of himself for not being a complete klutz*
Wolfram - *shakes his head at him, still smiling* "Fine..." *lifts his arms up, ready to be picked up*
Yuuri - *places the little bottle in his back pocket and places the clean clothes on top of the blond's stomach before leaning down to scoop him off of the couch, carrying him over to the bath/watching him* "Are you sure you're getting enough to eat...?"
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes a bit, keeping his arms wrapped loosely around his neck the entire way* "I eat as much as I can when I can." *it's not like he could stop it from coming back up* "Why do you ask?"
Yuuri - *shrugs, nudging the bathroom door open with his foot, carrying Wolfram inside* "You're really light..."
Wolfram - *sarcastic* "I'm sorry."
Yuuri - *rolls his eyes, sitting down on the edge of the tub and refusing to let the blond go just yet/carefully reaches over to turn on the water once he was sure Wolfram was holding onto him/doesn't exactly ever want to leave him, but figures he might as well ask* "Did... did you want me to leave...?"
Wolfram - *ponders over Yuuri's question, and comes to a relatively quick answer/did he want him to leave?? pft! what kind of a question was that anyway??* "Why would I want you to leave?"
Yuuri - *stares at him for a moment/why would he want him to leave...?/flushes a bit at his stupid question* "I don't know... I just thought I should ask..."
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes a little, though he isn't annoyed at all* "Don't ask stupid questions you already know the answer to."
Yuuri - *nods at him/reaches down to the water to make sure the temperature was okay/what? at least he knew for sure now... he didn't want to do anything Wolfram didn't want him to do... er... unintentionally, at least*
Wolfram - *sighs lightly as he waits, staring down into the water/now that the idea of having a bath has sunk into his head, he can't wait to get in/although...* "You Earthlings have small baths..."
Yuuri - *rolls his eyes a bit* "That's because the house isn't that big... There are plenty of large baths...."
Wolfram - *shrugs/it's not like it bothered him at all - well... not really/he was just pointing things out/being cramped in a small bath would take some getting used to, but he'd be just as clean - and that, to him, was the more important thing*
Yuuri - *turns off the water once it's full enough/grins at the blond* "There... perfect, just for you."
Wolfram - "If you say so..." *removes himself from Yuuri's hold to stand and begin to take the oversized pajamas off*
Yuuri - *watches him, not bothering to move/it wasn't as though he could do much, anyway....*
Wolfram - *carelessly drops everything onto the floor, thinking again about getting his own clothes and pajamas to wear on Earth - not because he didn't like wearing Yuuri's, but because... well... they'd actually fit/steps into the tub to sink into the water, letting out a contented sigh as he did so*
Yuuri - *stares absentmindedly at the blond, splashing the water lightly with a finger* "Is it okay? It's not too hot, is it...?"
Wolfram - *shakes his head, then smiles up at him* "It's fine..." *it felt wonderful, actually, and he immediately relaxes*
Yuuri - *remains where he was for a few moments, then slides along the edge of the tub towards the blond/moves off the edge to sit on the floor, resting his head on his arm on the edge, staring at Wolfram again*
Wolfram - *turns a bit to look at him, noticing his gaze* "What...?"
Yuuri - *shakes his head, forcing himself not to blush/honest* "Nothing... I just like looking at you..."
Wolfram - "I noticed..." *it was hard not to, now that he knew/raises an eyebrow at him and smirks playfully/teasing* "Do you want to help me wash...?"
Yuuri - *blinks, but nods, sitting up some more/still doing his best to hold back any small flush* "Sure..."
Wolfram - *his smirk widens/can tell he's trying his hardest not to blush* "Get to it, then..."
Yuuri - *blinks again, then hurriedly glances around for the soap - apparently he forgot where the soap was in his own home/finds it, taking it in his hand before rolling up his sleeves/stares at Wolfram again, clearly unsure of where to start*
Wolfram - *easily notices his hesitation* "What...?"
Yuuri - *swallows, shaking his head* "N-nothing..." *pauses a bit longer, then leans a bit closer to stick the soap in the water/pulls it out and moves his hand to start washing at Wolfram's arm/the hope that he could resist blushing was getting more and more difficult...*
Wolfram - *smiles to himself, sitting still as he allows Yuuri to go about what he was doing/absently wonders how long it will take for Yuuri to start blushing, and is pretty sure his face will be at least a light pink before he manages to finish*
Yuuri - *paying careful attention to what he was doing, not wanting to be accused of missing a spot/reaches down with his other hand to gently pull the blond's arm out of the water, running the soap along his skin*
Wolfram - *can't stop himself from giggling just a little/likes the idea that he can get Yuuri to do pretty much whatever he wants/sits there and makes no move to help, letting Yuuri do it all by himself*
Yuuri - *carefully sets his arm back in the water, making sure to rinse all the soap off before leaning across the tub to do the same with his other arm/once he finishes with his arms he pauses, staring at his chest for a moment/slowly moves his hand with the soap to run along his chest, holding his breath as if that would stop any blush from appearing*
Wolfram - *grins up at him, enjoying every one of his reactions* "You're going to kill yourself if you hold your breath for too long..."
Yuuri - *quickly lets out the breath, pausing to stare at him for a moment/pouts, going back to focusing on the task at hand/he wasn't going to let Wolfram tease him like that! no!/grumbles*
Wolfram - *grins more, then lifts a hand to pat at one of his cheeks* "So cute..."
Yuuri - *lets out a huff, stopping once he finished washing his chest* "Sit up..." *grumbles about how he wasn't cute*
Wolfram - *sits up at he was told, shaking his head lightly at his adorable grumbling*
Yuuri - *lets out a small sigh, moving to wash his back*
Wolfram - *sighs softly again, leaning back into the touch just the slightest bit/it was nice to be pampered and taken care of every once in a while*
Yuuri - *finishes washing and rinsing off his back, but pauses, staring at it for a moment before leaning closer to kiss him between his shoulder blades/unable to stop himself*
Wolfram - *jumps and squeaks a little, not expecting it/looks over his shoulder at him curiously, a light blush staining his cheeks*
Yuuri - *blinks at him, greatly amused by the reaction/leans close to kiss him again in the same spot*
Wolfram - *blushes a little more* "Yuuri...?" *well that was definitely new...*
Yuuri - *kisses him again before slowly pulling back some* "Hmm?"
Wolfram - *looks a little confused, his face now a light shade of red* "What was that for...?"
Yuuri - *blinks, a bit confused as well* "You... you don't want me to...?"
Wolfram - *quickly shakes his head* "No... I mean, yes... I mean... I... I don't mind, it's just... different..."
Yuuri - "Oh..." *pauses, still a little confused* "Do... you not like it...?"
Wolfram - "No, I... it's not that... I said I don't mind..."
Yuuri - *watches him a bit more/curious* "You're blushing..."
Wolfram - *blushes even more as it was pointed out to him* "S-so...?"
Yuuri - *smiles lightly at him/he was really, really cute* "Why...?"
Wolfram - "I... I don't know..." *it wasn't like he could control it!! he didn't blush by choice!!*
Yuuri - *smiles a little more/with soap still in hand, he reaches out to wrap his arm around Wolfram’s chest, pulling him a bit closer to kiss his back again*
Wolfram - *sits still and allows him to, his face feeling unbelievably hot as his cheeks burned red*
Yuuri - *places little kisses all along the blond's back, pausing to take a little more time to trace his shoulder blades with his lips*
Wolfram - *lets out a soft little noise of approval/lifts his wet hands to frame his own face, hoping the water would cool his cheeks down at least a little*
Yuuri - *wraps his other arm around the blond as well, tightly around his chest, holding him in place as he kissed him a few more times, moving up to kiss the back of his neck*
Wolfram - *eventually lowers his hands - they weren't doing much to help anyway; if anything, having them there only made him more aware of how hot his face was at the moment - and shuts his eyes, tilting his head just bit to make his neck a little more accessible*
Yuuri - *kisses his neck a couple more times before slowly trailing back down between his shoulder blades again/pauses, curious/licks along his spine, back up to his neck*
Wolfram - *gasps loudly and jumps again, the water around him splashing a little and lapping at the sides of the bath/his face flames even brighter, though he didn't think that was possible considering it had already been pretty red before*
Yuuri - *tightens his grip a little more at the jump, trying to hold him still as he licked along his spine again*
Wolfram - *groans, covering his mouth with his hand to prevent it from being too loud*
Yuuri - *greatly amused with the blond's reactions, but slowly releases him just a bit, though still keeping his arms around him, reaching down a little to gently rub the bar of soap along the blond's stomach since he stopped before getting that far earlier*
Wolfram - *wishes his face weren't as red as it felt/can hardly turn to look at Yuuri, afraid he'd only blush more/what the heck had gotten into the wimp?*
Yuuri - *pulls back a little more after a while/softly* "You need to get your hair wet..."
Wolfram - *quietly* "... how...?" *can't really think of any way to do it in a small bath without it being the slightest bit awkward/definitely not used to bathing in such cramped little spaces*
Yuuri - *lets out a small sigh, setting the bar of soap down/places both his hands into the water, forming a cup with them/as softly as before* "Close your eyes..."
Wolfram - *closes his eyes*
Yuuri - *waits a moment to make sure he had his eyes closed before lifting the makeshift cup of water up over his head, releasing it to wet his hair/repeats several more times*
Wolfram - *squeezes his eyes shut tighter at the feel of the water in his hair, some of it dripping down his face*
Yuuri - *once he thought his hair was wet enough, he leans a little around the blond to gently brush the water from his face/amused that he was still pretty red*
Wolfram - *keeps his eyes shut even when the water was brushed from his face/doesn't want to look at Yuuri until his blushing was back under control*
Yuuri - *takes the shampoo next, squeezing some into his hand/moves his free hand to cover over the top of the blond's eyes, just incase any dripped, then starts to work the semi-liquid into his hair*
Wolfram - *sits still, patiently, keeping his eyes closed the entire time*
Yuuri - *makes sure to wash all of the blond's hair, gently scrubbing the bubbles into his hair/once he was sure he had it all washed, he says quietly* "Lean your head back a bit..."
Wolfram - *leans his head back like Yuuri told him to*
Yuuri - *smiles at him, letting out a small sigh before starting to rinse out his hair, taking a little longer than it had before since he was only using one hand now*
Wolfram - *continues to allow Yuuri to wash his hair, making not a single move nor speaking a word*
Yuuri - *pauses a moment after rinsing the last of the shampoo out of his hair/decides to take advantage of the fact that Wolfram's eyes were closed, carefully moving his hand from his eyes to hold the side of his face, leaning closer to kiss him deeply/it wasn't his fault he looked so cute...*
Wolfram - *gasps a little, not expecting the kiss - he couldn't exactly see, after all/that doesn't stop him from kissing back, though, and he does almost immediately*
Yuuri - *kisses him passionately, wrapping his free arm around his back to pull him closer/or as close as he could with the tub in the way*
Wolfram - *turns a bit in the water so that kissing him over the side of the tub is a little more comfortable, raising his arms to their normal position around his neck*
Yuuri - *could really care less that his clothes were getting a bit wet from being so close Wolfram/gratefully moves around some once the blond did to kiss him easier*
Wolfram - *sinks one of his hands into Yuuri's hair, unintentionally pulling on some of it - though it's a light tug, nothing painful/would really like to be a lot closer, but the side of the bath was in the way*
Yuuri - *slides the hand framing the blond's face softly down his neck and across his chest to join his other arm in holding him, gripping onto him tightly and leaning further over the edge of the tub as if that would make them any closer*
Wolfram - *groans a bit in annoyance, tempted to just climb right out and fix the little issue they had with being close/stops himself, however, knowing he'd probably get Yuuri completely wet if he did*
Yuuri - *getting a bit frustrated with the tub situation as well/kisses him for just a bit longer before pulling back to catch his breath, though still holding onto him*
Wolfram - *whines a little in disappointment, but can't deny the fact that he's a bit out of breath, too/pants heavily, his face once again flushed*
Yuuri - *leans close to him, gently moving his forehead against his as he tried to control his breathing/mumbles quietly* "I love you..." *and would really like to be a lot closer to him....*
Wolfram - *whispers back* "I love you, too..." *and is beginning to wonder if he should take back what he said before about Yuuri being predictable/the whole kissing and licking of the back had been anything but... not that he'd minded at all...*
Yuuri - *sighs lightly, pulling back a bit to reach for the conditioner, though not nearly enough to make Wolfram release his hold around his neck/pours some of the semi-liquid into his hand, reaching up once more to brush back the blond's bangs, protectively covering his eyes before rubbing it into his hair*
Wolfram - *sighs a little bit, letting him continue on/figures the faster he finished the faster he could get out and really cuddle*
Yuuri - *gently tilts Wolfram's head back so he could rinse out his hair/wraps his arms around the blond's back once he was done*
Wolfram - *opens his eyes to look at him once he didn't feel the water being poured on top of his head any more/finds himself unable to keep from blushing again/so much for thinking Yuuri'd be the one with the red face by the time he was done...*
Yuuri - *smiles lovingly at his blush/teasing* "Do I pass...?"
Wolfram - *looks at him, confused* "'Pass...?'"
Yuuri - "Getting you cleaned up. Did I make high enough marks to pass?"
Wolfram - *manages to snort lightly* "It's not like I was testing you or anything, just seeing if I could actually get you to do it..."
Yuuri - *shrugs, still smiling* "Will you let me, again?"
Wolfram - *blushes more* "You want to...?"
Yuuri - *watches him curiously/being honest* "Well... yeah... if that was okay with you... I mean... I'm sure you could do it all much better and easier yourself... but... I dunno... I liked it..."
Wolfram - "You... you liked it...?" *curious, though he didn't know why he should be/with how Yuuri seemed to enjoy dressing him, he should have figured he'd like bathing him just the same*
Yuuri - *ends up flushing just lightly* "It gives me an excuse to be closer to you..."
Wolfram - *flushes a little more as well, turning away slightly in the hopes that Yuuri wouldn't see it - or at least it wouldn't be as noticeable/grumbles embarrassedly about how Yuuri likes to baby him*
Yuuri - *does notice/watches him even closer, tilting his head to the side, curious* "You don't want me to baby you....?"
Wolfram - *mumbles quietly* "I didn't say that..." *it was just a little overwhelming some times*
Yuuri - *continues to watch him, lifting a hand to stroke at his wet hair* "Oh..."
Wolfram - *keeps mumbling softly, staring down into the water again until he can get the color in his cheeks to lessen* "Wimp..."
Yuuri - *grins at that, brushing at his hair some more* "Yours..."
Wolfram - *nods lightly in agreement*
Yuuri - *leans closer to give him a light kiss before pulling back again* "So... Do you think you're clean enough to get out...?"
Wolfram - "I suppose..." *his face is still flushed, though he carefully begins to stand, shivering a little bit without the warm water surrounding him*
Yuuri - *quickly gets up as well, grabbing for a towel to unfold and wrap around the blond as he got out of the tub/pulls him to his chest as he started to pat him dry* "Here... let me help..."
Wolfram - *doesn't argue, and merely stands there and lets Yuuri do everything for him again*
Yuuri - *apparently enjoying himself... a lot.../gently pats Wolfram dry, wrapping the towel tightly around him before turning to get the clothes he brought down for him - a pair of his mom's pants and one of his mom's cute little purple shirts*
Wolfram - *waits for Yuuri to hand him the clothes, wondering what sort of an outfit he'd gotten for him this time/thinks again on how it seemed as if Yuuri liked picking out clothes for him, then wonders if he should be worried at all*
Yuuri - *holds out the pair of light khaki colored pants and the purple, tiny white flower patterned V-neck shirt with lace around the bottom and sleeves/apparently very pleased with himself*
Wolfram - *looks at the clothes carefully before beginning to pull them on/kind of likes the purple shirt - but then he kind of likes the color purple/also begins to wonder if Yuuri had some strange sort of obsession with him and little flowers/first he'd thought his 'cute' pajamas would have flowers on them, and now this shirt...*
Yuuri - *patiently waits for him to get dressed before pulling the bottle from Gisela out of his back pocket and handing it to him/mumbles, knowing that Wolfram didn't like how it tasted* "Before I forget..."
Wolfram - *pouts a bit, but takes the bottle from him anyway, uncorking it and forcing himself to quickly drink the vile tasting substance within/gags a little, but keeps it down, making a face as soon as it'd cleared his throat and was making its way into his stomach/stupid Gisela and her stupid nasty tasting medicines - is still convinced that there's something she could do to make it taste at least a little better*
Yuuri - *gathers up the discarded clothes while Wolfram drank the medicine/holds out his hand for the bottle once he was finished* "I'm going to go take these upstairs, okay?"
Wolfram - *nods, handing the bottle back to him*
Yuuri - *looks over the blond in his new outfit, flushing lightly, but quickly turning away to open the door to start heading upstairs/it wasn't his fault that he was so cute!! it wasn't!*
Wolfram - *gives Yuuri an odd look when he flushes, then rolls his eyes behind his back as he headed out of the bathroom and up the stairs/returns to his spot on the couch, remembering the toast and drink Yuuri's mother had brought out for him a little while ago and figures he may as well try to eat as much of it as he can/picks up a piece of the toast and starts to munch on it slowly*
Yuuri - *hurries up the stairs, frowning again at the mess in his room, but would much rather be with Wolfram than clean it up/drops off the clothes and little bottle before making his way back down the stairs, moving over to the couch to sit on the floor in front of it again*
Wolfram - *gives Yuuri another look when he returns, but doesn't say anything, continuing to munch/eventually picks up the drink as well, taking a sip and making a face at the way it felt/pulls the glass away to peer at it oddly* "What is this?"
Yuuri - *blinks at him, reaching up to take the glass from him, taking a small sip before handing it back* "Ginger ale..."
Wolfram - "Ginger... ale..." *nearly panics at the word 'ale'/looks at Yuuri, surprised* "Is that some sort of alcohol?!"
Yuuri - *quickly shakes his head, hearing his near panic* "No! Mom would never give you something with alcohol! It's just the name. It has nothing to do with real ale or whatever."
Wolfram - *calms down instantly/hadn't honestly thought Yuuri's mother would give him alcohol, but these Earth people were weird, so you never know/cautiously sips at the drink again* "Why does it feel funny?"
Yuuri - *grins at him* "It's just carbonated... Like... air inside the drink. It's a soda."
Wolfram - "Oh..." *he didn't really get it - as always - but he guessed the whole air being inside the liquid thing explained why it was sort of... bubbly.../takes another few sips before going back to his toast*
Yuuri - *amused* "Do you like it...?"
Wolfram - *looks at him, a little confused* "Like what? The drink?" *gives it another look, considering it* "It's okay... I guess... it just feels weird..." *he wasn't used to this 'carbonated' stuff*
Yuuri - *shrugs* "I had to choose the wines for the wedding the other day... and I thought it would look kinda weird if you didn't have any... so I was thinking about getting some sparkling cider for just us... We can even change the labels so it doesn't look out of place..." *just one of the many ponderings he'd done over the past week to try and keep Wolfram off his mind... though thinking about the wedding kinda defeated the purpose...*
Wolfram - *glances at him curiously, speaking to him in between bites* "Sparkling cider...?" *wonders if he's supposed to know what that is/he wasn't exactly a drink connoisseur, but then he didn't drink much besides milk, water, juice, and tea - he'd tried a few wines, but hadn't liked them very much, and his mother had convinced him to try a few other alcoholic beverages, but he hadn't enjoyed those very much either; he just didn't really like the taste of alcohol... actually he didn't like the taste of a lot of things - he could name more foods and drinks that he didn't like than ones that he did*
Yuuri - *nods* "It's like... juice... with bubbles... I thought you might want to try that instead... Less questions about why you weren't drinking anything..." *pauses, panicking slightly* "But don't drink anything anyone else gives you, okay?? Just what I say is okay."
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes again* "Why would I drink something someone else gave me?? I'm not stupid. I can smell the difference between juice and alcohol. And even if I wasn't pregnant, I wouldn't drink any of the wine anyway..." *had actually been planning on sticking with water or plain juice, but if Yuuri had something else in mind, he figured he could give it a try*
Yuuri - "Oh..." *feels stupid/fidgets a bit where he sat on the ground*
Wolfram - *shakes his head at him, munching on another piece of toast/his stomach was feeling marginally better, except for the fact that it was a bit on the empty side* "Have you had any other ideas for the wedding...?" *figures he'd at least ask, though Yuuri wasn't usually one to think and plan for parties/he typically just went and did what people told him to do - which, more often than not, was nothing more than smiling at and schmoozing with the guests*
Yuuri - *fidgets a bit more/grinning sheepishly up at him* "I got the flowers ordered...?"
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes once again* "Yeah, after I got on you about it..." *really, Yuuri was hopeless*
Yuuri - *pouts some* "Sorry..." *pauses, trying to think of all the things Gunter had talked with him about over the week - can't remember a thing... he was too distracted anyway...*
Wolfram - "Don't be... planning parties isn't exactly your sort of thing..." *not that it was really his sort of thing either, but he figured he was much better at it than Yuuri was/not to mention it would be expected of him to do so more often once they were married - putting together all sorts of balls and playing the 'hostess' for all of their foreign friends*
Yuuri - "No... I guess it's not..." *grumbles under his breath about how paperwork took up most of his life anyway...*
Wolfram - *makes no comment on his grumbling this time/pauses in eating his toast as well, staring off into space as he thought of what life would be like after they were married/a lot of things would change in his life, that was for sure*
Yuuri - *glances up at him, watching him as he seemed to zone out/curious and a bit worried, hoping that nothing serious was bothering him* "Wolf...?"
Wolfram - *shakes his head, snapping out of it/looks towards him curiously* "Hmmm...?"
Yuuri - *scoots a bit closer to the couch, placing both his arms on the edge before resting his head on top* "What are you thinking...?"
Wolfram - "Just... how different things will be... for me... once we're married..." *he'd known it all along, but it hadn't really sunk in yet; now he thinks it's beginning to*
Yuuri - *blinks curiously, not really understanding* "Different...?"
Wolfram - *nods* "I won't be a soldier anymore. I won't be able to fight at all. I'll be protected as much as you are, instead of doing the protecting. I'll have to stay behind whenever you go away - it would be too dangerous if both of us went, and... all of my responsibilities will change completely. I'll have to plan parties and social gatherings instead of patrolling or training; I'll have to organize the maids and the rest of the household instead of a troop of soldiers. And then... taking care of the baby... and any other children we have..." *frowns a little bit/it wasn't as if all these thoughts were upsetting, it was just a big change in such a short period of time* "I'll be... domesticated..."
Yuuri - *stares at him, trying to put himself in his shoes, trying to understand how he felt/doesn't really know what to tell him* "Wolf..."
Wolfram - *shakes his head again/it didn't bother him - it really didn't - it would just be a little strange for a while, and would take some getting used to* "The whole time you've been here, all those sorts of things have been left up to my mother and Gunter..." *and Anissina to some extent, since she'd seemed to form some weird "women are better than men" sisterhood with the maids* "Now I'll have to, and... it'll just be... odd... waking up everyone morning, knowing that instead of practicing or going on some small mission or another, I'll be picking out drapes and table settings..."
Yuuri - *can't help but feel upset at hearing everything Wolfram had to do/frowns sadly at him*
Wolfram - *keeps thinking about it, picking up his glass again to take a few more sips of the ginger ale/thinks it was probably for the best that he'd allowed Greta and his mother to teach him how to knit, since he'd soon be doing all sorts of other domestic things anyway/rolls his eyes and wonders if he should ask his mother to teach him how to embroider next*
Yuuri - *watches him a while longer before finally letting out a small sigh, mumbling mostly to himself* "I can't see you being... domesticated..."
Wolfram - *glances at him, raising an eyebrow* "You can't...?" *he'd been getting enough practice at it since planning for the wedding had begun*
Yuuri - *fidgets* "Won't you get bored...?" *was mostly upset that he wouldn't be able to go with him when he left the castle*
Wolfram - *shrugs* "I don't know. Mother seems to think all of that stuff is fun, and Gunter's never really had a problem with it. And it's not like planning the wedding has been exceptionally bad. There's actually more work to it all than I had thought there would be. Plus, I doubt I'll be very bored once the baby's born." *smiles wistfully, placing his drink back down to rest a hand against his stomach* "If he or she ends up being outgoing and adventurous like you, I'll definitely have my hands full."
Yuuri - *stares at him, slowly uncrossing his arms to place his hand over the blond's on his stomach/there was no way he was going to ever leave him unless he absolutely had to* "Wolfram..."
Wolfram - *stares back at him, a small smile still on his face* "Yes...?"
Yuuri - *gently squeezes his hand, smiling lightly* "I can't wait..."
Wolfram - *his smile widens a bit* "Neither can I..." *looks down at their hands, and places his other one over top of Yuuri's, keeping it in place* "We never did come to any firm decisions about names..." *not that they didn't have a lot of time, and not that he hadn't been thinking about things like that when Yuuri had been gone*
Yuuri - *laughs a little awkwardly, reaching up with his other hand to brush at the blond's hair/names... right...* "No... we never did..."
Wolfram - *pouts a little* "You don't sound very interested in that sort of thing either..." *not that he could blame him/thinks they've already established that any sort of planning is just not Yuuri's forte*
Yuuri - *quickly shakes his head* "No! It's not that I'm not interested... I just... don't think any name I'd think of would be good enough..." *he did have that slight self esteem problem, after all*
Wolfram - *looks at him curiously* "Why wouldn't they be good enough...?"
Yuuri - *sighs lightly, shaking his head* "Because names are important... I don't think I could pick a name worthy of any child of ours..."
Wolfram - *squeezes his hand some* "I'm sure that's not true. You just have to use your brain and think on it for a while."
Yuuri - *squeezes his hand back, laughing lightly* "What brain...?"
Wolfram - *laughs lightly, removing one hand to poke at his forehead* "The one in your head."
Yuuri - *squeezes his eyes shut to prepare for impact, opening one eye curiously after the poke was over/teasing still* "Ooh... That's what's up there..."
Wolfram - *plays along with his teasing* "Well... that's what's supposed to be up there..."
Yuuri - *grins* "Ya learn something new every day, huh? Today I learned I have a brain!"
Wolfram - "Or you learned you might have a brain. We still have no proof of you actually having one for sure."
Yuuri - *lets out a small gasp* "You're right... How will I know for sure? Cut it open and check?"
Wolfram - *wrinkles his nose at him* "Eww! That's gross!" *flesh wounds he could deal with/anything that dealt with brains and guts spilling everywhere was a different story*
Yuuri - *grins/amused* "I was just kidding."
Wolfram - *sticks his tongue out at him, before quickly going back to teasing him* "Don't talk about disgusting things like that; I might end up throwing up all over you..."
Yuuri - *laughs at that, still amused* "It should be good practice for when the baby arrives."
Wolfram - *giggles* "I think my throwing up and a baby spitting up are two completely different things."
Yuuri - *shrugs* "I can handle it."
Wolfram - "Oh, sure. I can only imagine. You've never even changed a diaper before, much less cleaned spit up off your uniforms." *not that he had either; but, hey, he'd soon be the domesticated one - he'd learn those things faster than Yuuri*
Yuuri - *eyes widen a little as some of the color in his cheeks bleach/squeaks, trying to sound confident* "I-I can handle it..."
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes* "Or you'll be completely grossed out... you wimp..."
Yuuri - *pouts at him* "No faith in me at all..."
Wolfram - *nods in agreement, teasing him still* "None." *that was a lie, of course/he was sure Yuuri would be an excellent father*
Yuuri - *groans, burying his face into the couch/mumbles* "Whatever..."
Wolfram - *smiles down at him, moving a hand to stroke at his hair*
Yuuri - *stays completely still, not wanting the blond to stop what he was doing/wait a few long moments before curiously turning his head to look up at him* "I love you, Wolf..."
Wolfram - *tucks a few strands of dark hair behind his ear* "I love you, too, Yuuri..."
Yuuri - *smiles brightly up at him, gently squeezing his hand again*
Wolfram - *smiles back just as brightly, still lightly sliding his fingers through his hair* "I really hope the baby looks like you..."
Yuuri - *rolls his eyes a bit, but still smiling* "Why? You're much more beautiful than I am."
Wolfram - *smiles a little more/playful* "Well, then he or she can have your hair and eyes, and my face."
Yuuri - *thinks about it for a moment, but nods in agreement* "That sounds fair enough..."
Wolfram - *giggles some again, knowing they really had no control over things like that*
Yuuri - *smiles up at him, reaching to brush at his hair some more* "How are you feeling...?"
Wolfram - "I feel fine..." *and he meant it, mostly* "My stomach's still a little upset, but it's nothing like earlier."
Yuuri - *watches him, a bit worried* "Are you hungry, then? I can make you something for lunch, if you'd like..."
Wolfram - *snorts* "You? Cook something?"
Yuuri - *pouts* "I can cook... It's easy..." *yeah... put it in the microwave and go...*
Wolfram - *clearly doesn't believe him* "I'd like to see you try..."
Yuuri - *lets out a small huff, moving to stand to his feet* "Fine... I'll make you some soup right now..." *soup would be perfect for an unset stomach*
Wolfram - *stands up to follow him, smirking all the while* "This, I have to see..." *thinks Yuuri could find away to ruin anything, even something as simple as soup*
----------
Hey everyone! Sorry for the super long wait. A lot of stuff has been going on and I just haven't had the time or motivation to sit and put this up. It seems simple to get up, but I've gotta make sure all the italics are italicsed and get rid of screennames and times and things like that... and then space them out and... yeah...
Anyway, enough excuses! Look?? Aren't they so cute together?? All Yuuri and Wolfram. Yay~
I have a request, though... Can we please, please not bash Iris? I know that there are those with strong opinions about her, but she's one of Mikage and my favorite characters. And while it does remain primarily YuuRam for the entirety of the plot, etc. Iris is a crucial part of the plot, and there's no changing that. So please, please, please, please don't say anything bad about her? Thank you for understanding! It's just disheartening when she's getting jumped on and not even given a chance to develop. <3
