Halloween [Orpheus]

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve carries Orpheus into their room, nuzzling Orpheus's face and paying little attention to the path he takes.

He sets Orpheus carefully on the bed with one more long kiss. When he pulls away he whispers, "Gosh, you're pretty, sweetheart."

She presses a kiss underneath his jaw.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

He tilts his head back with a soft purr.

"You'll be back to normal tomorrow, right?" he whispers.

[golden_lyre]

She strokes her fingers lightly over his chest. "That's generally how it goes."

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"Good." He kisses her hair.

[golden_lyre]

She smiles then, nuzzling his throat. "If you go to sleep, when you wake I'll be myself again."

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve smiles, looking at Orpheus through his lashes. "Do you want me to sleep now?"

[golden_lyre]

"Only if you want to," Orpheus murmurs, kissing along his collar bone.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve runs his hands over her back and into her hair.

"I want my Orpheus back," he says quietly. "You're beautiful like this, but you're a beautiful man, too, and I miss my beautiful man."

[golden_lyre]

She pushes herself up a little to smile at him.

"Sleep then, my love," she murmurs and bends to kiss him lightly.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

He purses his lips to kiss Orpheus in response.

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus kisses him sweetly and settles again at his side.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve curls his arm around Orpheus and exhales slowly as he relaxes.

"Love you," he murmurs, giving an affectionate stroke to her hair.

[golden_lyre]

"And I love you," Orpheus whispers in return.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve closes his eyes, smiling, and strokes her back until he falls asleep.

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus drifts off soon after, secure in the hope of being himself in the morning.

[ooc: Should they walk up in-thread?]

[golden_lyre]

[ooc: I think I'm good unless you want to cover something?]

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

[ooc: Nope, I think I'm good too.]
