# 2 Love

Another day, another twenty-four hours of keeping his mouth shut. He really didn't get why William insisted on keeping their relationship a secret in the first place. It was perfectly normal for two men to be so close in that kind of way…or so Ronald thought.

"Oi, I just wanna take a hot bath and plop into bed…" A loud sigh escaped the youth as he kicked off his shoes and threw his jacket on the coat rack. It was almost completely dark in the little apartment, so William was still at work, like usual. It was amazing how the two could spend actual time together without that time being work related. It was pretty funny actually; their first date was on a mission to look for a soul that was bouncing around the lands of London.

It felt like the millionth sigh that left Ronald's mouth when he sunk into the tub, the room was filled with steam and the scents of roses and honey. He couldn't help but smile briefly; the two scents were William's favorites. His muscles relaxed as the hot water soothed all the aches and pains from another day full of reaping and mountains of paperwork. At least today he didn't have overtime, but it sure felt like it.

Ronald stayed in the bath until the water was cold and he was shivering, goose-bumps covering his skin. He threw a towel on his head and slipped on a pair of pajama bottoms before dragging his feet to the bed and practically throwing himself onto the cushion, burying himself in the warm sheets. It wasn't all that late, barely passing 8:30. There was nothing else to do today so might as well get some sleep. And that's what he did.

The clock had clicked to ten past twelve when William returned home. All the lights were off and it was quiet, he wasn't surprised. Usually Ronald would be out partying or just hanging around with Alan and Eric, something that made the man slightly jealous, even though he'd never say it out loud. He turned on one of the lights and with mild surprise saw Ronald's shoes and coat near the corner of the door. So he was home. But why wasn't the youth waiting for him? William didn't think long as he started walking towards the bedroom, the door being open a crack, the light from the small hallway trying to peek in.

William opened the door completely then gently shut it and made his way over to the bed. He could hear the small snores coming from Ronald; he was out like a light. One of the man's rare smiles found its way onto his face; he couldn't help moving the blankets off of the youth's head. He always looked absolutely angelic when he slept, even if there was the smallest bit of drool trickling down the corner of his mouth.

"Ronald." William gently shook the boy and watched as he groaned and rolled over, mumbling something he couldn't quite figure out. He shook him a few more times and finally Ronald lifted himself up, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. He smiled softly and leaned forward slightly, enough to lay his head on William's shoulder.

"You're home…it's about bloody time." His voice was muffled and William swore he felt the blonde's teeth chew at his shirt. He gave a small roll of his eyes and shifted completely onto the bed and pulling Ronald into his lap. The youth gave a small squeak but cuddled close, giving a small hum of contentment.

"Tch, you seem to be in a cuddly mood tonight." William said while running his fingers though the two toned hair.

"I was lonely and was in the mood…" Ronald gave a small purr at the fingers running through his hair, before lifting his head to place a kiss on William's nose, earning a light pink blush to spread across the older man's face. He did it again and smiled softly.

"Do you know how much I love you?" Ronald gripped the other's shirt lightly.

"You tell me often, a lot. Honestly, you'd think one would get it after the first thousand times." William said pushing Ronald's bangs out of his face and placing a small kiss on his forehead. Ronald's smile vanished a bit, but returned shortly when he placed a sweet kiss onto William's lips, which he returned.

"Good, but I like to remind you every now and then."

Ughhhh, the fluff! D: I already know I got these two out of character, I just fail like that. I always try to get one IC, but when it comes to fluff, it always goes all OOC OOC!
