nothing more needs to be said.

the movie plays on in the background, the luxray peacefully sleeps (only slightly disturbed but thankfully, kachow is a heavy sleeper), and all is well.

by the time his eyes return to the tv, the movie's already well into its third act.

still, his attention remains elsewhere.

"i think we make each other better."

Should she feel bad because he had said he had always looked forward to watching this movie with his girlfriend?

Probably, and she does feel a little bad once it's all said and done and it becomes obvious that the movie is almost over, but it’s not like this was just her choice, was it? They can always watch it again some other day…

”Hmm… Yeah, I think so too.”

A faint smile lingers on her lips, and while she has never considered herself to be much for cuddling, it’s easily and without even giving it any thought that she rests her head on his chest – listening to his heartbeat.

”This is nice.”

Her words are but a whisper.

they can definitely watch it again some other time, but it's also likely it'll end the same way it did today. not that he minds.

he exhales, content as he caresses the back of her head.

"it really is."

it's everything he's ever wanted.

smiling, he asks:

"will you stay the night?"

Would watching the movie again end the same way it did today? Probably, but that’s not a bad thing, is it?

Listening to his words in perfect silence, Sol closes her eyes, allowing herself to simply enjoy the moment.

If only things could always be this peaceful…

”Mmm… Do you want me to stay?”

As if she doesn't know the answer to that.

as long as they stay here, wrapped up in each other's arms, in the safety and comfort of their own little bubble, then maybe things could always be this peaceful.

it's a good thing uri has no intentions on ever leaving.

"i really want you to."

he kisses her head, gentle.

"i like sleeping next to you."

Leaving.

Staying.


Two words that at times have been charged and full of meaning between them. Two words that sometimes leave a bitter taste in Sol’s mouth, for they come attached to painful memories she’d rather not think about.

Will he leave, or will he really stay?

In this case, on this night, will she stay?

The kiss is gentle and sweet, and it brings a soft smile to her lips.

”Oh, do you? Alright, I’ll stay, but you better not cling to me.”

She smirks then, always prone to tease him at any chance she gets.

uri will stay. always.

he chuckles when she teases him. a smirk mirrors onto his expression as his arms tighten around her.

"i'll be stuck to you like this all night."

more kisses are placed on her head.

"you'll have to pry me off."

Despite the way her eyes roll when he holds her close, she can’t help but chuckle too – giving in and simply leaning against him.

Kisses come, and her smirk remains through each and every one.

”Don’t tempt me, I might just hit you in your sleep… where it’ll hurt the most.

She would never do something so cruel, would she?

she would never...

nah, she would, and he'll still appreciate her all the same even after.

"can't believe you're about to hit my poor heart."

he sighs, exaggerating.

"it's getting late. wanna shower?"

Would she? Probably.

It wouldn’t be the first time she does something like that, although the other times have of course been perfectly justified and about much more than simply clinging to her at night…

”I bet your poor heart can take it.”

With these words, she jokingly and gently punches his chest, only to then look at him.

”Sure, that’d be nice.”

Even if faint, there’s a smile.

uri doesn't flinch when he's hit, but he does act like it hurts a little more than it should.

"ow."

but a smirk accompanies it.

"you know, i've been training quite a lot since i left the military..."

he leans back if only to look into her eyes.

"want me to carry you there?"

’Want me to carry you there?’

She looks at him, an eyebrow being raised while her gaze never leaves his, and as per usual, her expression is impossible to read.

”Uriah, are you saying you think I’m too heavy for you to have carried me before?”

What she’s doing should be more than obvious, especially once the faintest of smirks begins to tug at her lips.

”Okay, show me.”

"what? no, no, i was saying i was too weak to carry you before."

leave it to uri to get flustered even at the simplest of teases. he sighs, laughing shortly after.

"alright."

his hand slides down to rest at her waist, holding on while he slowly rises to his feet. he does his best not to grunt, but he does, and it isn't out of exasperation or anything. he's just tired...

"see?"

and with that, his hands move to support her weight before he starts walking over and into the bedroom.

”And that’s different from what I was saying because…? “

There’s no difference at all, but the fact that he’s so flustered and feeling a need to explain himself is just adorable.

Sol has never been one to be self-conscious about things like her weight, and he shouldn’t expect her to be – not even when he grunts while trying to lift her.

”You okay there? Sounds like it took you some effort.”

Despite her words, she smiles, holding onto him.

there really is no difference at all, and instead of digging himself into a deeper hole, he decides to do the smart thing and keeps his mouth shut.

"all good! very little effort needed."

through the bedroom, and into the bathroom they go.

"and we're here."

he smiles, kissing her neck once again.
