"Big bro-o-ther! It's a wonderful day for a wedding!"
"No! Leave me alone!"
"You're going to marry me whether you like it or not!"
Haunted by his younger sister trying to force him into marriage yet again, Ivan shuddered, in spite of the thick fabric on his coat. How he longed for the day she would accept that he didn't love her, and go pursue another man.
Because then, he wouldn't have to hide his love for Alfred.
Exciting, Alfred called it, having a secret lover. Having to sneak off like a pair of horny teenagers and make out behind buildings, cuddle on rooftops, exchange loving words only where no-one could see or hear them.
Terrifying, Ivan called it. As much as he loved every moment spent with his dear Alfred, every minute of passion and romance and tenderness they only had for each other, the voices that told him, Natasha will find out, this is wrong, stop it! Howled at the back of his mind, leaving him filled with fear and uncertainty over his undeniable feelings for his American.
And now, he sat with Alfred on his lap, holding him as if he were some sort of precious artefact…
"Ivan, honey? Is something wrong?" Alfred asked his boyfriend, gently pawing at the huge man's face.
"You know what it is," Ivan responded miserably, face falling.
"Oh, yeah. Your sister." Alfred said quietly, placing one hand on Ivan's forehead, as if to try and absorb the worries threatening to eat his lover alive.
"It scares me, the thought of what would happen if she knew about us," Ivan admitted.
"She'd certainly kill me, and there's no telling what she'd do to you," Alfred joked inappropriately.
"That's exactly what I'm afraid of, Alfred," his lover reminded him.
Alfred snuggled closer to Ivan, and the latter made a face as his lover's glasses rubbed the sensitive skin on his neck. "I'm sorry, dear. But you don't need to worry, we'll make it through somehow, right?"
Ivan gently ran an enormous hand through Alfred's hair. "I hope so, sweet," he responded.
The two let themselves drown in another moment of stolen passion, hoping that these days wouldn't ever have to end…
