Lullaby
It was late at night when Steven finally returned from his work. Physically and mentally exhausted, he could think of nothing else aside from the comfort of his bed. When he entered the dark room he shared with his boyfriend, he was surprised to see that his boyfriend is not in bed. Lance sat there, in the dark corner of the room, looking out of the window with his tired eyes.
"Welcome back..." Lance greeted with a warm smile, which was mostly hidden in the darkness of the corner.
"Hey," Steven said as he walked over and sat down next to the Dragon Master, "Can't sleep?"
Lance sighed as he leaned his head against Steven's shoulder, "I'm tired..." He whispered after a considerably long pause.
Steven gently stroke his head, "You look tired..."
"How about you?"
"I'm tired too..." Steven admitted. "Do you want to get something to drink first?"
"No, thanks..."
Another silence ensued.
"... Hey Steve..."
"Yeah...?"
"Sing me something..." His voice was almost pleading.
Steven smiled, "Only if you promised to sleep afterwards..."
"... Only if you stay then..."
"I won't be going anywhere..."
Steven never sings when anyone is around, but if it's Lance, then he can always make an exception...
