Free Time
Alfeegi walked leisurely down the stone castle hallways, listening to the rain as it poured outside. He closed his eyes and sighed, a small smile playing on his lips. Today was a good day, despite the rain.
Kai-Stern was gone with the proper amount of money, the Dragon Knights ((Rath specifically)) were away on a mission, Raseleane was keeping Lord Lykouleon busy so he couldn't get into trouble, and the paperwork was done for the day. If only he could find his boyfriend now; A specific almost-annoyingly childish, orange eyed secretary.
Alfeegi smiled even wider, eager to spend this extra time with Ruwalk. Coming to his door he knocked lightly. Receiving no answer he poked his head in and looked in the room.
Random articles of clothing lay scattered across the floor in disarray, some looking like they hadn't even been worn. His desk was completely covered in paperwork and random books, a desk light buried up to the light bulb. The covers were strewn across his bed and most of the pillows were either at the foot of the bed or on the floor. Alfeegi wondered how on Dusis he slept in it, before sighing in defeat and moving into the room.
Knowing Ruwalk, he probably didn't want the maid's cleaning his room because 'he couldn't find anything when his room was clean.' Like he could find anything anyways in this mess. Alfeegi decided to postpone his search and straighten up a little for him. He moved towards the bed, bending over to pick up random pillows on the way. He threw all the pillows at the head of the bed ((ha, rhymes...)) and started to straighten up the covers.
"'Feegi!" he heard a familiar voice yell excitedly before being glomped by a bigger person.
"Ruwalk!" he grunted, said person having wrapped his arms tightly around his waist and was now nuzzling his back.
"Are you making my bed?" Ruwalk asked loudly, still not letting go, "'Cause you know we have maids to do that!"
"You called them off, Ruwalk." Alfeegi stated flatly, "Let go already!"
"No! I love you!" he replied childishly.
Alfeegi squirmed, trying to get out of the tight embrace. "You know, you have clothes everywhere? How do find anything to wear?"
"I borrow your bigger clothes, remember?"
Oh yeah... "Your acting more immature than usual," he changed the subject, "Have you been drinking!"
"Hmm... jus' a lil..." he mumbled, "I brushed my teeth for you though..."
Alfeegi blushed, "Ruwalk, please get off!"
He felt the warm arms around his waist loosen, and he turned around to bag on Ruwalk for drinking, only to be stopped by a pair of warm lips pressed against his own.
"Mmph!" he tried to exclaim as Ruwalk hugged his body tightly against his larger one, pinning his arms to his sides. Without the use of said arms, he fell back onto the bed with Ruwalk falling on top of him.
Ruwalk loosened his arms and pushed himself up, grinning down at the slightly flushed secretary.
"S'matter?" he asked after hearing Alfeegi sigh.
Abruptly, Alfeegi reached his now-free right hand up and pulled Ruwalk's lips to his own, kissing him deeply. Fingers sunk into thick brown tresses as it poured over Ruwalk's shoulder and tickled Alfeegi's cheek. Ruwalk moaned happily and nibbled on his boyfriends bottom lip, overjoyed with Alfeegi's sudden change of mood. He must've had a good day.
He felt Alfeegi's mouth open as Ruwalk licked his lips, and plunged his tongue in the warm cavern. Receiving a longing moan only made his blood pump faster as he explored the tasty mouth in front of him passionately. They broke off for air and Ruwalk flipped his orange-tipped hair over his shoulder, only to have it fall again. Alfeegi used both hands to pull back Ruwalk's hair, earning another kiss, this one quicker though.
Alfeegi rubbed up and down Ruwalk's back, caressing his hair lovingly as Ruwalk kissed down his neck, fingering the buttons on Alfeegi's pale blue shirt. He licked the now exposed chest before going back up to suck on the sweet neck, savoring the taste.
Alfeegi panted as Ruwalk ran his hand over his chest, down his stomach, loving the feeling of Ruwalk sucking on his neck. But, when Ruwalk's fingers hit the button of his pants, his eyes suddenly went wide and he pushed lightly against Ruwalk's chest. Ruwalk stopped immediately, looking down on the furiously blushing secretary.
"Sorry," Ruwalk mumbled after a moment, realizing he had pushed his limits. He scooted back on the bed and let Alfeegi sit up.
Alfeegi felt bad, so he sat next to Ruwalk and leaned against his shoulder, still slightly blushing. Ruwalk wrapped his arm around the white officers waist in understanding. He kissed the aquamarine hair in front of him and hugged the smaller dragon to him closely, respecting his needs, knowing that Alfeegi wasn't ready for that part of the relationship yet.
"Let's go walking outside," he suddenly declared, trying to cheer up Alfeegi, who was giving his a strange look.
"It's raining, Ruwalk," he said slowly, as if speaking to a small child.
Ruwalk grinned, "I know! Come on!" he said, pulling Alfeegi off the bed with him.
"Ruwalk, I don't want to get wet!" he protested, but let himself be dragged anyways. Something suddenly dawned on him, "Wait... You said that you had gone drinking... but your hair isn't wet..."
'Oh no!' Ruwalk thought frantically to himself, 'I'm so busted!'
"You got into the castle's stores of wine, didn't you Ruwalk!" Alfeegi yelled, making Ruwalk stop walking and face him pleadingly.
"No! Well, not really... Ok yeah. But just a little, I promise!"
"You and Kai-Stern have got to stop getting into the wine of the castle!" Alfeegi yelled, going into full-rant mode, complete with holding his fist above his head, like he was ready to hit Ruwalk.
"But hardly anyone ever drinks it!" the poor officer argued.
"It doesn't matter! It's expensive and you shouldn't be drinking it! You shouldn't be drinking at all!"
Alfeegi had Ruwalk backed into a corner, looking furious. Ruwalk searched his head for something to say, but couldn't come up with anything logical. So, he used a stupid excuse, just trying to cool Alfeegi down.
"I was thirsty?"
"That's what water is for!" Ok, so that didn't calm him down... at all...
"Ruwalk, I swear, you can be the mo-!" he started, when Ruwalk suddenly reached up, pulled Alfeegi's face to his and kissed him. As the brown-haired officer deepened the kiss, Alfeegi seemed to visibly deflate as he dropped his arm in defeat and kissed him back.
"Better?" Ruwalk asked after he broke away.
Alfeegi pouted, "I hate it when you do that!"
Ruwalk grinned and hugged him tightly, "You just hate it 'cause after I kiss you you can't yell at me anymore!"
Alfeegi glanced at him sideways, "Want to test that theory?"
Instead of replying, Ruwalk just grabbed his boyfriends hand again and marched towards one of the castle doors, Alfeegi letting himself being dragged behind. Soon they were at the door, but Alfeegi was still protesting.
"Ruwalk, I don't want to get wet! I don't want you to get wet either, because you could catch a serious cold!"
"A cold can't keep me down for long," he said winking, making Alfeegi blush again.
Ruwalk reached forward to grab Alfeegi's other hand, but the smaller officer had latched onto the door frame frantically. Suddenly deciding something, Ruwalk let go of his hand and ran out into the pouring rain, which soaked him in seconds.
"'Feegi!" he called, but he didn't get a response. Grinning, he ran back to the door to find the object of his affections still standing there, looking uncertain.
Part of Alfeegi wanted to go out in the rain, to let loose and have a little fun. But the rational part of his mind warned that they could get really sick, or they could fall in the mud and twist something. He glanced up as a grinning Ruwalk came into view, soaking of course.
Then, without any forewarning whatsoever, Ruwalk suddenly hugged Alfeegi.
"R- Ruwalk!" Alfeegi yelped, but it was to late. The thin, light blue shirt was now wet and sticking to shivering skin. The smaller officer gave Ruwalk a level look, before throwing all caution into the wind. Ruwalk ran back out into the rain, and Alfeegi chased him. He bent low and scooped up a handful of mud, already smiling at his form of payback.
Ruwalk ran behind a tree, impossibly overjoyed at the fact that he had gotten Alfeegi to play in the rain with him. He needs a break every once in awhile. After all, he almost never has time off, Ruwalk realized. He's always too busy caring about the state of everyone else in the castle. Ruwalk smiled to himself at these thoughts, loving his boyfriend all the more deeply.
He peered around the tree, only to see the rain and no Alfeegi. He frowned slightly, wondering if he might've gone in, when he felt something wet and slimy hit the back of his head. He reached back as he swirled around, finding a laughing Alfeegi and mud on his hand.
"Aw man!" he protested, "You got mud in my hair?"
"Can't really tell though! Not with the color your hair is!" Alfeegi giggled jokingly, not noticing that Ruwalk had scooped most of the mud in his hand, and now held it behind his back.
"Awww..." he said slowly, moving towards Alfeegi. "You don't mean that!" he declared, throwing his arms around Alfeegi for a hug. When he felt the white officer's arms encircle his waist, he moved his hand up and squished the mud on the top of aquamarine hair.
"What the-? Ruwalk!" he yelled, but the other was already running off, laughing joyfully.
Later, Alfeegi and Ruwalk lay against a tree, still out in the rain.
"My shirt is ruined, you know." Alfeegi stated, panting slightly.
Ruwalk shrugged with one shoulder and grinned, remembering the huge mud fight that had followed Ruwalk getting mud in Alfeegi's hair. Afterwards, of course, they were filthy, so Ruwalk suggested they stay in the rain a bit long to try and get some of it off.
"See? This was fun," Ruwalk said, changing the subject.
When Alfeegi sighed, he kept going, "Seriously though, I've never seen you smile so much."
Alfeegi smiled with half his mouth and leaned against Ruwalk, "That's because I'm here with you."
"Well then, I'll try to be around you a lot more often," he declared. "Because you're really adorable when you smile."
Alfeegi blushed and stood up, "Come on, we better go inside before we catch pneumonia." He held out a hand to help Ruwalk up, and he gladly accepted it.
"What on Dusis happened to you two?" asked an incredulous Lykouleon, after running into them, literally, in the hall. Both of his officers were dripping water and mud onto the castle floor, shivering slightly.
Alfeegi looked away, scratching the tip of his nose, so Ruwalk answered, "Um, we fell."
"You fell?" Lykouleon asked in disbelief, "In what? A mud puddle?"
"Well, kinda..." Ruwalk stated, suddenly coming up with a story, "See, Alfeegi was in the office working when I came in. I opened the window to listen to the rain, but then this gust of wind came and blew a few papers out the window, so me and Alfeegi went to go look for them."
'Alfeegi and I' Alfeegi corrected Ruwalk in his mind, already knowing the story was a bust.
Lykouleon fought hard to keep back a grin, "So, some papers flew out into the rain... and you went to look for them?"
Ruwalk nodded, not catching on, "There was a lot of mud on the ground, and I fell in one, accidentally pulling Alfeegi in with me."
Lykouleon couldn't keep a smirk from forming, "Funny how the papers didn't, say, disintegrate from the pouring rain..."
Alfeegi fought to keep his own grin down as Ruwalk's face faulted for a minute, before breaking out into a grin, "Yeah, weird paper," he declared, grabbing Alfeegi's hand and marching past Lykouleon, yelling over his shoulder, "And we definetly did not play in the rain! Ow! Don't hit me Alfeegi!"
The Lord laughed softly to himself, happy that Ruwalk was able to get Alfeegi to do something other than work and yell.
"Wow Ruwalk," Alfeegi said sarcastically once they were out of ear-shot of Lord Lykouleon, "That last comment really threw him off. Great job."
Ruwalk just shrugged, "Hoped you liked my story."
"...Why?"
"Because I might have to tell it again," he replied, pointing to a staring Cernozura who had just rounded the corner.
Ruwalk sighed as he stared up at the dark ceiling of the sick ward, having been confined here for a few days due to a nasty cold. A thick curtain separated him and Alfeegi, who was also sick, much to Ruwalk's disappointment. He suddenly sneezed loudly, making the cool cloth on his forehead slip off onto his pillow.
He had woken up about half an hour ago, after having slept most of the time since Cernozura found them and demanded that they were treated. He was still sleepy, but he wanted Alfeegi. He pouted and reached back to grab the cool, damp cloth, when he suddenly got an idea.
Cernozura said we had to get better quickly, he thought to himself as he inched off the side of the bed, But it's late, so nobody's here to take care of us. Guess I'm in charge of making sure 'Feegi gets better!
Ruwalk swayed a moment from the sudden blood rush to his head, before stumbling forwards. He giggled quietly to himself and dragged his heavy feet toward the accursed curtain which separated him from his love. He ran his hands across them, feeling the rough, tan material, but not finding a darned exit. Finally giving up in frustration, he picked up the bottom of the curtain and crawled underneath it, eager to get to his Alfeegi.
He straightened the best his body would let him, and was greeted with his sleeping beauty. Aquamarine hair splashed against the large white pillow in wavy dissaray, bangs lightly brushing his flushed face. He was securely tucked underneath the clean, white covers of the big sick bed, his chest rising and falling ever-so-slightly. His face was calm, peaceful, unplagued by nightmare's as he slept through the night.
Ruwalk grinned as he slumped in the wooden chair that sat at the edge of Alfeegi's bed and looked at his sleeping form lovingly. He reached over and slipped the cloth on his forehead off, re-wet it with the water from a conveniently placed wooden bowl, and placed it back on the white officer's head.
Alfeegi felt something wet and cool touch his warm forehead, and it dragged him out of the haze of darkness he was sleeping in. Cracking open his eyes he saw Ruwalk on the chair that was beside his bed, who was smiling gently.
"M'sorry," he said quietly, "I didn't mean to wake you." He reached forward and moved a few bangs out of Alfeegi's eyes, the light blue sleeves of his too-big pajamas brushing his face.
"You should be in bed too," Alfeegi whispered, his throat sore. He was more concerned about the deeply flushed, droopy-eyed secretary sitting beside him, though.
"I missed you... I couldn't sleep," the brown-haired dragon whined, leaning his elbows on the bed.
Alfeegi blinked a few times, deciding whether or not what he was about to say was a good idea, but Ruwalk really needed to rest and he knew the stubborn officer wouldn't go while he was like this...
"So sleep here with me," he finally suggested, and Ruwalk's face brightened. Alfeegi scooted over, leaving his warm spot on the bed, as Ruwalk climbed in and pulled the covers over himself.
He flicked his orange-tipped hair over his shoulder and reached over to pull Alfeegi against his chest. He kissed the copper-eyed dragon lightly on the mouth before hugging him, the aquamarine hair tickling his chin slightly.
"Better not kiss me again," Alfeegi mumbled as he snuggled against his love happily, his hands resting just below his chin on Ruwalk's firm chest. "You'll be hacking up a lung too."
Ruwalk didn't reply, choosing instead to kiss the soft hair below him and squeeze Alfeegi tighter, but not too tight.
"Love you," he told the white officer sleepily.
"Love you too, Ruwalk," he muttered before his mind surrendered to the darkness and let him slip into a peaceful slumber with the man he loved.
