Warning/Notes No one but 'Tias is mine.
Mattias looked around the apartment, longing for the one room with a full bath that she had enjoyed until about a month ago. It had just been enough for her by herself even with visits from Tyki or Kanda some nights, this two bedroom with two full baths, a kitchen/dining room, and living room was too much. She supposed she would have had to move into one of these after the twins came, a room for herself and one for them...
But right now it was too big, too lonely, even with her brothers in the spare room sound asleep she was struggling, at odds with herself. They both had eaten dinner hours ago, their dirty dishes washed and put away while she resumed her seat at the table with covered food slowly getting colder and colder. It was like this every night just about with Tyki usually coming out about midnight or one to put her to bed either in her own or in their bed. It didn't matter which one, she still ended up crying herself to sleep, unhealthy as it was 'Tias couldn't help the tears or how she was falling for someone who pretended to care. Hormones she supposed.
Tonight she told Tyki to leave her be, she'd wait all night this time if she had to, had to tell Cross she wasn't pretending... So she continued to sit with her hands in her lap at the table, watching the door, then the clock, then the door again. When Tyki woke up he sat with her for a while, finished his drink and went back on to bed. Usually 'Tias would have been able to stay up as the clock crawled closer to two-thirty in the morning, rehearsing what she wanted to say, but the sleepless nights had caught up with her. 'Tias woke up from a doze more than once to find herself slouched over the table, once dimly she thought she heard utensils and plates moving. She made a sleepy protest thinking that it might be the boys cleaning things up but the hand in her hair kept her from waking further.
Later she was certain that someone picked her up, another sleepy protest dying at the familiar scent even as she felt her sundress being slipped off. It had to be Tyki or Cross, Kanda wouldn't pull her dress off, not usually. But when she felt the blankets, felt the warm body...Mattias turned on her other side to face him, arms wrapping around Cross as she sleepily hid her own face in his chest. She felt Cross stiffen in surprise and then relax, an arm slipping around her as well. It took a little more waiting for Cross to relax more before she looked up at him. His glasses were gone but the mask stayed in place much like her eye-patch stayed with her, his eye was closed.
"Cross...?" She got a sleepy grunt, "I...I just want you to know I like-like you..." 'Tias ducked her head again, "Yo-you probably don't feel the same 'nd I don't expect you to... I just...wanted to get it out..." Her words said 'Tias closed her eye and finally let herself fall asleep for once without tears, barely feeling the brush of lips on her forehead.
