Walking into the kitchen, Kendra, Jax and Ray all blush while Sara smirks at the two men. Rip and stain were just left completely confused by the situation. Mick pulls out a chair for Len and as soon as he is sat down Mick sits next to him. "How was your afternoon?" Stein asks Mick and Len. Giving just a sideways glance Len says "good" . Stein smiles and says "what did you guys do"? Len doesn't answer him and all Mick does is shoots a death glare at Ray, Kendra, Jax and Sara leaving Stein very confused. Feeling his anger boil up Len starts humming "Let it Go" to himself to calm down.
"What in gods name happened?" Stein asks feeling Jax's complex emotions due to their bond. Jax shot him a "I will tell you later" look but Stein wasn't having it. "Someone tell me what the hell happened or I will just ask Gideon" he shouted. "Those interlopers spied on Mick and I having private time in our room because they have no respect for us at all" Len said with acid in his voice. The entire table goes silent as Stein stares down the other four "interlopers".
Sara looks down at her plate while Jax hides his face from Stein in shame. Kendra and Ray turned a bright shade of red and stayed quiet. Rip stays quiet totally afraid of causing more trouble.
Mick put his hand on Leonard's back and rubbed it trying to calm him down the best he could especially since he was just as pissed off as Len was at the whole situation. Reaching up, Len places his hand on Mick's and tried to calm himself down as best as he could. Stein looked like he could erupt at any moment.
"What in hell gave you four the idea that spying on people was ok?" Stein said ready to punch every single one of them. "We've never seen that side of them, it was nice to see for once" Sara argued again. "So you spy on them?" Stein yells back not being able to control his emotions. "The door was open, we just kinda peeked in" Sara said sheepishly. "Oh, and how long did you stand there?" Stein demanded to know. "Not that long" Kendra said quietly and keeping her eyes downcast. "Not that long huh Kendra, Len and I were in there for a good ten minutes or more before we even noticed you" Mick growled. Len took a deep breath trying to remain calm. "Ok maybe it might have been awhile. Stein looked ready to explode. 'You sat and watched for over ten minutes. I'm ashamed of all four of you.
The silence that fell over the kitchen at that moment was eerie. Sara stared down at her plate while Kendra and Ray looked like they would soon come to tears. Jax looked ready to collapse where he was out of shame. Rip just stared at all of them but says nothing, as to not spoil his entertainment.
Mick continued to try and calm Len down. Finally taking a deep breath Len said "I'm doing better Mick, thank you" and kissed Mick on the cheek. "I'm so grateful to have you Len" Mick says keeping his hand on his shoulder. "I'm the grateful one" Len said placing his hand on Mick's. "Wanna get the hell of of here" Mick asks trying not to start yelling again. "That would be great Mick and Stein, thank you for your thoughtfulness" Len said smiling at Stein. "Your more than welcome Leonard" Stein said and smiled as he watched the two men return to their room.
"I still say those two should show us their other side more often" Sara said letting out the breath that she was holding. Stein looked at Sara and said "they will show us when they're ready". Sara pouted, "but they're so adorable" she said. "No matter if they're the cutest things on the planet they deserve the same rights to privacy as the rest of us Sara" Stein snapped at Sara. "Yes, sir" Sara said looking sheepishly at her plate again.
With that Stein stormed out of the kitchen leaving a very confused Rip in his path. Ray looked like he might cry any minute so Kendra kissed the top of his forehead trying to keep him calm while keeping herself calm in the process while Jax's whole body is shaking with both his and Stein's emotions. Realizing that Jax was in pain, Stein allowed himself to relax.
Back in Mick in Leonard's room:
Mick was laying in bed while Len laid against his chest. "Thank you for being my rock out there" Len said quietly. "Anytime Lenny, I've always got your back" Mick says rubbing Len's back. "I sure didn't have yours when I needed too" Len said sadly. "What matters is we are here together baby" Mick says pressing a kiss to the top of Len's head. Len snuggled closer and listened to Mick's heartbeat.
Len looked up at Mick and asked "do you think Lisa is alright, Micky"? Mick grins and says "of course she is, the kid is as tough as nails". "She learned it from you Micky" Len says staying close to Mick's chest. "You as well baby" Mick said still rubbing Len's back. "We raised a good kid" Len said smiling. "Yeah we did" Mick said happily. "Think we should take Jefferson in?" Len asked laughing. "Maybe, he could use our guidance" Mick said laughing. "Then later we shall let him know" Len said smiling at Mick.
Reaching up Len pulls Mick in for a deep kiss. Mick smiles against Len's lips causing Len to lick Mick's lips in response. Growling a bit, Mick pushed his tongue into Len's mouth and explores every inch of it. Their tongues inter tangle and they start a fun little tongue wrestling match. Mick let's Len win and gets a deep passionate kiss for it causing Mick to smile behind the kiss.
Taking a moment to breathe Len asks "should we get a pet when we get back home"? Mick is taken aback for a second at the weird question but asks "what kind of pet would you like baby"? "A Phoenix" Len said smiling and was happy to hear Mick's laughter as Mick pulled him in closer. Laying against Mick's chest, Len wondered if they could live a normal life. "Whatcha thinking about baby?" Mick asked caressing Len's neck. "Nothing, just something stupid" Len said enjoying Mick's touch. "Len, you can tell me" Mick said a bit worried.
"I was just wondering if we really could become homemakers when we got back" Len said sighing against Mick's chest. "Well, we already have Lisa and we are adding Jax, and we should take in the Hartley kid as well, and we will by a house and adopt a cat and we will be all set" Mick said smiling, actually feeling like it would happen. "Where would we get the money to feed us all" Len said getting excited that it could be possible. "We have that nest egg put away, remember" Mick said smiling at Len. "We could also take on some easy jobs here and there" Len smirked not wanting to let go of how they met. "Of course, and we can also sell our safe houses, except the one with the view of the park" Mick says happily. "I like that idea, we don't need them anymore" Len said cozying up to Mick. "I can't wait to get back to Central City and start our life" Mick said pulling Len closer to him.
"Let's just go now" Len says louder than he meant to but he wanted his life with Mick to begin now. Mick gave a look of sadness and happiness. He wanted to start his family but he knew deep inside, from all the hurt and pain his father pushed on him, he wanted to be nothing short of a hero. "Len, we will start our lives, but I know deep down you want to be a hero" Mick said taking the high road. "Mick, you're my hero" Len said still with his mind in what could be. "I know baby and your mine. Let's take this one step further, lets be legends" Mick said, once again not believing in his own words wholeheartedly but knew it was best for Len. Thinking about it for awhile and what it would mean for everyone Len said with a smile "Mick, let's be legends". Mick smiles and says "as soon as we accomplish that, we shall settle down". "I love that plan, do you Micky?" Len said snuggling against Mick once again. "I love it, Lenny" Mick said holding him tightly.
Len laid against Mick's chest and didn't move. He was content right where he was. "We have our goal, Mick" Len said still basking in their conversation. "And when we have a goal, we accomplish it" Mick said with a laugh. "What's your biggest goal aside from this Micky?" Len asked enjoying their talk. Mick rubbed Len's back and said "my biggest goal was being with you, and I have achieved it".
Len blushed. "Well then, we only have one more giant goal and we are set". "Your so cute when you blush" Mick said massaging Len's shoulders. That statement made Len blush a deeper shade of red. Mick ran his finger along Len's cheek. Len had never felt safer than he did right at that moment. Len gives Mick a very loving kiss of which Mick returns.
"I wish we could just stay like this forever" Len said as he rubbed Mick's chest. Mick pulled him tightly and said "well, at least for tonight, we don't have to leave this room. So we can stay just like this until morning. "That sounds…" But before Len could finish that sentence, a ton of bells and whistles went off.
