Day 55, morning; Ridley's room, Athosian Common Area; Attn: Tim, Athosians [f]

Ridley awoke to a warm, solid weight against him and a terrible throbbing in his ankle. He opened his eyes and smiled to see Tim there, a leg and arm thrown over him. Ridley still had trouble believing this was all real. His contentment, however, was marred somewhat by the overwhelming need to visit the facilities and the pain in his foot and ankle

Tim shifted in his sleep not quite sure what was trying to wake him. Sighing he tried to shift closer towards the warmth radiating next to him. With a start he opened his eyes and looked right into the the eyes of his new lover. For a moment, he'd forgotten where he was and the semi freedom he was exploring. With a smile, he said, "Good morning."

"Good morning," Ridley greeted, pressing a quick kiss to Tim's lips. "I really, desperately need to go to the bathroom, so hold that thought." He extricated himself and grabbed his crutches, heading for the bathroom quickly, ignoring the throbbing in his ankle.

Tim really didn't get a chance to say anything because Ridley moved pretty fast for an injured man. He watched his lover head towards the bathroom before turning his attention to the ceiling. Tim couldn't believe how scary yet freeing his relationship with Ridley was and for the first time, in a long time, he thought that things might just work out.

Ridley managed to get himself sorted and crutched back into the bedroom, where he rolled back into bed and then gave Tim a grin. "So... what are your plans for this morning?"

Tim returned his lover's grin before saying, "Check my email because I didn't last night because someone," he winked at Ridley, "wore me out last night."
