"It's snowing again."
"Is it?"
Ivan was always surprised and amused by how much the older man was fascinated by snow. He wondered if Yao ever saw snow when he was at home.
"When will it stop snowing? If the weather keeps it up like that, we won't be able to go home" the Chinese man said now frowning and the Russian laughed, wrapping his arms around him and pulling him away from the window:
"Aw, is that such a bad thing?"
"Well, we both have things to do, now have we?"
"That can waaait a bit" Ivan said and buried his face in the long black hair covering Yao's neck. The other sighed:
"And what happens if the electricity goes out? Or something like this? Not that I wouldn't find a way to find a solution but –"
He was stopped when Ivan wrapped his long scarf around his neck as well.
"Problem solved. Whatever happens, I'll keep you safe and warm."
The Russian grabbed the blanket lying at the end of the couch, covering both of them as well.
"See? I have good ideas too."
Yao sighed once more with a faint smile: "You sure have, you big bear."
