A/N: Thanks very much for making it this far, especially to those who have reviewed, watched or added the story to your favourites. This chapter will probably be more fluff, and will be the last unless I feel like writing more. Never fear though, I have plans for another collection of Havshee one-shots coming soon. Enjoy the chapter!
True to his word, at 6am sharp the next morning Alex began his attempt to wake up the red-head who had curled up with a pillow the moment Alex had left the bed. Trying to ignore the fact that Sean was still completely naked, the blonde managed to tug the pillow from his grasp. Sean groaned, before lazily rolling over to face Alex, attempting to glare at the blonde whilst squinting due to the light that had managed to find its way around the curtains and into the bedroom.
"Ten more minutes," Sean said, going to grab the pillow from his boyfriend's clutches. Alex took a step back.
"You need to shower and get dressed. Then you need to be at breakfast with me by seven, and then you have a training session at quarter to eight. I know for a fact that if I give you ten more minutes you will do none of this," he replied, grinning in triumph as Sean dragged himself out of bed and, slouching still, shuffled towards the bathroom to take a shower. "Nice ass," Alex called over jokingly.
"Fuck off!" retorted Sean, who was generally more than a little pissed off when he was forced to wake up in the morning. Satisfied when he heard the sound of running water coming from the bathroom, Alex grabbed the first clothes he could get his hands on and began getting changed. He had training later too, so it didn't particularly matter what he wore to breakfast.
Just as Alex was mentally planning the least awkward way to ask Hank to sound-proof their bedroom, Sean emerged from the shower, dripping and clad only in a towel that seemed to be skilfully inching down his hips. The red-head was towelling his hair dry and seemed significantly less annoyed than when Alex had last spoken to him.
Padding over to where the blonde was sitting on the double bed, Sean straddled Alex's hips, wrapping his arms around the other boy's shoulders and pulling him in for a lazy kiss. Kissing back, Alex tried desperately to ignore the fact that Sean was wearing nothing but a towel.
"What time is it?" he asked speech still a little slurred. Alex knew Sean wouldn't properly wake up until breakfast.
"About twenty past," Alex replied, moving in for another kiss. Sean pulled back.
"You mean I got up early for nothing?" he replied, frowning at the blonde.
"You still need to get changed…" Alex began, interrupted once more by the frustrated red-head in his lap.
"Which won't take more than five minutes," was the irritated reply.
"Then I suppose we have time for an early morning make out session," Alex responded, a cheeky grin creeping onto his face. Sean groaned again, he couldn't decide whether to slap his boyfriend or hug him. He settled for leaning in for another kiss, ignoring the smug expression on the blonde's face.
Once Sean had gotten changed, trying and failing to find a shirt that would cover the multiple red marks on his neck, the pair headed down for breakfast. The professor was eager to create a sense of family amongst the older and newer residents of the institute, so everybody ate breakfast together. Alex had insisted that they arrive five minutes early to avoid the rush of younger students, so when they reached the dining room only the professor was there to greet them.
"Sean, Alex, good morning! I trust that you slept well," Charles said, gesturing for them to sit down. Sean's face flushed slightly as he began adjusting his shirt to cover some of the love-bites and hoping the professor wouldn't ask why he had screamed in the middle of the night. Then again, Charles was a telepath so he probably knew already.
As Sean began shovelling copious amounts of toast onto his place, there was a sudden burst of noise as a bustle of younger students, and Hank, practically stampeded into the room. Alex noticed the gentle smile on Charles' face as he observed the young mutants cheerfully helping themselves, but was quickly distracted by a squeak of fear from the red-head next to him who abruptly grabbed Alex's arm in an attempt to shield himself from Hank, who had sat down next to him.
"Every damn night, Sean! Every night this week you've broken my concentration with your screaming!" Hank ranted, leaning his face in towards Banshee and barely concealing a snarl. Hank continued to have a go at the red-head, detailing the reasons why it was so important that he was not distracted from his work. By now, this had grabbed the attention of a large majority of the teenagers present. "I mean do you two really have to fornicate so loudly every single night?"
The professors eyebrows shot up so high it looked as if they might be hidden by his hairline. Sean's face turned bright red and only as a series of snickers and gasps were heard from around the table did Hank seem to notice that they had an audience. His face immediately contorted with embarrassment, "Or whatever else you may do," he added awkwardly.
Alex, despite being more than a little embarrassed, took this as a positive sign that Hank would probably be more than willing to sound-proof their room. The room had descended once more into the pandemonium of chatter that it had been in before Hank's outburst, though Sean and Alex received more than a few curious glances and he heard a few students ask what 'fornicated' meant.
It seemed that Sean's embarrassment had been short-lived, as he had resumed his attempts to consume whole slices of toast at once whilst explaining to Alex for the millionth time why his room was inferior. Then again, Alex thought, maybe not, as he noticed the ginger was now holding one hand up against his neck to disguise the red marks dotting it.
By the end of breakfast, Alex had convinced Hank to install sound-proofing to their bedroom under the condition that Sean would not be emitting any late night screams until it was finished. Alex, knowing that Hank worked fast, was most definitely looking forward to testing the room out in a few days.
