OOM: post-Slenderman with Orpheus

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

After all the ups and downs and adrenaline rushes of the day, one hopes Steve can be forgiven for pushes Orpheus against the door as soon as its closed and kissing him senseless.

"I don't know," Orpheus says, curling his fingers around Steve's wrist.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve studies his face, then kisses him between his brows. "I want it to be a blessing," he whispers. "What she wants for you. What she wants you to do."

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus turns his head to kiss Steve's palm. "I...hope so."

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve cradles Orpheus's face and lays down his head.

"It's what I want for you too," he says softly.

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus kisses his hair. "Maybe if enough people wish it..."

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"I think the most important one to wish it is you," Steve says mildly.

[golden_lyre]

"I don't know that I have it in me to wish that," Orpheus admits. "Not with any kind of faith."

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"Not even tiny bit of faith? That's supposed to be enough. Mustard-seed-sized."

[golden_lyre]

"For your kind of people, perhaps."

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve shakes his head at Orpheus's stubbornness and nestles closer, an arm across his chest to hold him.

"I'd offer you all of mine but I don't think it works that way."

[golden_lyre]

"No, I don't think it does," Orpheus says, relaxing against him.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve is quiet a while, stroking Orpheus's chest.

"So I'll wish," he says softly, "and do what I can, if you promise to try too."


[ooc: I have "Even a miracle needs a hand" going through my head now.]

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus is quiet a moment as well, laying his hand over Steve's.

"All right," he says eventually.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve kisses his cheek.

[golden_lyre]

"I want you to be happy," Orpheus says, shifting to kiss his lips.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"Honey," Steve says with a quiet laugh, "I am."

[golden_lyre]

"Good," Orpheus says with a smile, kissing him again. "Then I'm content."

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve kisses him gently and pulls Orpheus closer to him.

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus settles against him with a sigh.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve whispers, "What time's your curfew? Don't wanna get you in trouble with your folks," smirking.

[golden_lyre]

"I think I've got some time," Orpheus says with a laugh.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"Good, then we can snag." He stops, frowning. "Snug? Dammit, there's a word they use in London and I think it's appropriate ... of course I can't remember it now."

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus laughs. "Snog?"

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"That's the one!" Steve beams. "Snog. Let's snog."

[golden_lyre]

"Yeah, lovely, let's snog," Orpheus agrees with a laugh before settling in to do just that.
