His eyes widened considerably when the dish was placed down in front of him;
"Wow. You're amazing. That looks really good." Just the smell of the meatballs had him waking up, and the thought of eating conquered the desire to sleep.
He shifted into an upright position in front of the food, watching as Kai made a motion back towards the kitchen. "I think there's Cola in the fridge, if not water is fine."
With the appearance of food, the dreaded Puffin hopped out of Valdi's room and effortlessly glided across the room to land beside the Icelander. Valdi gave him a gentle nudge away, aware of Kai's caution towards the bird.
As soon as the glasses were down and Kai was sitting oddly awake beside him, Valdi wrapped his arms around him and pressed a kiss to his cheek.
"Thank you."

-- Puffin.
He abruptly turned as the flutter of wings caught his attention like a bear in a snare, a wide eyed stare leveled on the exotic bird that for all intents and purposes was truly harmless. It wasn't that he hated birds, animals, or anything like that -- quite the contrary. He thought it was the coolest fucking thing ever that Valdi had managed to not only get a puffin, but train and housebreak the thing as well. It was just his own inability to handle anything outdoors that kept him at an arm's length (for Christ's sake: his first trip to the zoo in his entire life had been when they all went as a group in November ( ... )

Quite certain, really
He'd never told Kai about that one weekend, and hoped he would never have to. A telling part of his conscience whispered that Kai had probably dealt with quite a few fantasy weekends himself, but Valdi quickly silenced it ( ... )

Way to make yourself out to be a big damn chicken loser, Claus.
All troublesome quips and laments over his wounded pride quickly simmered down to something easily forgotten when Valdi smiled, filling him with an indescribable warmth. "Careful, now, the rapture is supposedly coming this weekend," Kai warned in good humor. "But thank you. It's nice to be able to do somethin' special for ya."

He didn't mean to sound surprised, but it was very hard not to. Valdi had spent the best part of his childhood playing amongst whatever marine wildlife he could get his hands onto, so to think that Kai hadn't been around nature at all...
"Sorry, I didn't mean to--" Valdi blinked, "Rapture?" He'd heard something about it during class, but he'd figured that was just how his class was.
The word wasn't very familiar to him and he hadn't really been following the news all that much lately.

"W-what..." Fork suspended in mid-motion above his dish Valdi studied his boyfriend in undeniable disbelief before reality struck and he forced his gaze back to the dish with a nervous laugh. "Where did that come from? I haven't even done anything."
Carefully, Valdi shifted the meal from his lap onto the coffee table, allowing himself the freedom to wrap an arm around Kai's waist and press a soft kiss to his neck.
"But I can protect you from the possums and cats, though."
Kai didn't need to see him grinning, a light-hearted tone suggested that it was all in jest anyway.
Valdi tilted his head slightly to rest it on the Dane's shoulder;
"Really. You could be scared of leaving the house and I'd still be here."

All embarrassment flooded out of him as quick as it came however, and he turned in his place to wrap his arms around a slender waist in return, mounting his chin on the top of Valdi's head. "So if I decide to become a hermit you aren't going to abandon me?" He asked in good humor, smoothing his hand in circles at the small of his back. "What if I run off to join the circus, or to be a rodeo clown?"

Valdi leant into him, letting himself rest contently against Kai's chest. "Then I would come to every performance, of course." For a moment he let his eyes fall close, indulging in the fact that, for once, there was no reason for him to move.
Except to visit Sindre, but even that could wait five minutes.
"'Though I really don't think I have to worry about you becoming a rodeo clown." Kai working with animals was not a good investment on anyone's conscience.
