"Come to bed."

"No."

"Pythagoras -"

"My equations!"

"You have plenty of time to do them, you're entire life!"

"So better now than never."

Groaning, Jason walked up behind his lover sat at the table, leaning down and pressing his lips to Pythagoras' neck and jawline, hands running over the younger man's arms.

"That's not fair." Pythagoras moaned, leaning back into Jason. Jason chuckled against his cheek.

"Life's not fair."

"Mm."

"Come to bed?"

"I hate you."

"No, you don't."

Pythagoras stood up and turned to face Jason, pressing their foreheads together. Jason slipped his hands into Pythagoras'.

"How's Hercules?"

Pythagoras flinched. "I don't know. He hasn't left his room all day, not even for supper."

Jason's heart ached for his other friend. Of course, he'd always known it was going to have happened, but so soon...
It wasn't fair.

"I can't stand seeing him suffer this way." Pythagoras whispered, closing his eyes.

"Hey." Jason lifted his chin up. "He's going to be okay. We can all get through this."

Pythagoras smiled. Jason leaned forward and met his lips.

Mouths and tongues moving in synch, Jason held onto Pythagoras' hips as the blonde mans arms snaked around Jason's neck. Pythagoras whined softly as Jason hoisted him onto the table, forcing himself to pull away.

"Not here." He laughed breathlessly. Jason flushed.

"Sorry. Can't help it, when I'm with you." He breathed.

Pythagoras ran a hand through Jason's curls and over his cheek. "Me neither. But I highly doubt Hercules would be happy if we broke the table...again."

"That was one time!" Jason protested.

"Twice, actually." Pythagoras teased.

Blushing furiously, Jason buried his face in Pythagoras' shoulder and whined lowly while Pythagoras chuckled softly.

"I think I'm in love." Jason whispered.

Pressing a kiss to Jason's ear and neck, Pythagoras inhaled his smell, closing his eyes and clutching onto Jason's tunic.

"I know." He whispered. "I think I am, too."
