Liam opened the door of his van and gestured Viktor to enter. It was already one week since Liam received the black envelope and it was first Viktor's visiting. Viktor looked around the van, acquainting with surroundings. Shy smile appeared on Liam's face and he scratched his neck.
"Well-uh…make yourself comfort and…um…would you like some tea or coffee?" Viktor looked out of the window on setting sun.
"No, zhanks, I'm fine." He sat on the double bed and touched the blanked with his palm.
"It's nice." He said after a few seconds of silence.
"Huh?" Liam looked at him from the cupboard, because he was making himself a coffee.
"Zhe van. It's nice and…what is zhe word…cozy." Liam smiled and he stirred the coffee with a spoon.
"Yeah. My parents gave it to me when I went to BLU army." He said and sat on the bed next to Viktor. The older man looked in Liam's mug.
"Will you be able to sleep after zhat coffee?" He asked. The Australian looked on the dark fluid either and frowned a little.
"Maybe yes." And he took a sip from the SNIPER#1 mug.
"Well I think that it's too much for you." Viktor said and took the mug from Liam's hand.
"And zhat's why I have to help you wizh it." He continued and took a large gulp from Liam's coffee.
"Hey! I asked you if you want one!" Liam fake-yelled with a smile on his face.
"But I don't want any. I'm just helping your organism. Trust me, I'm a doctor." He said with a mischievous grin and took another sip. When Liam reached for it, Viktor stood up, still drinking the coffee. Liam followed him.
"OK, thanks for helping me and my organism." And he reached for the mug again. But Medic's hand raised and stopped his. Liam caught his wrist tightly and put German's hand behind his back carefully, not to cause him pain and not to spit the coffee from the mug. Then he stood behind Medic's back and with his other hand he took the coffee and finally drunk a little of it. Viktor turned, faced the Australian and tried to take the mug again. Liam raised the mug above his head so Viktor couldn't reach it.
"Hey, give me a chance! It'z not my fault zhat I'm only 1.67 meters tall!"
"Yeah, and it's not my fault that I'm 1.94 tall!" Liam said with laugh and Medic changed his strategy. He stopped reaching for the mug and tickled the younger man's underarms. Liam jerked and put the mug down. Viktor took the opportunity, stole the mug again and took another sip. When he saw Liam's hand trying to take the coffee, he pulled it back from his lips and put the cup behind his back. And Australian's hand followed and their chests bumped against each other. They looked in each other's eyes and then their lips met in sweet kiss. Viktor put the mug on a kitchen counter and drowned his fingers in Liam's dark hair. Without a warning Liam lifted Viktor on the counter next to the mug and continued with kissing a little more courageously. Liam's hands closed around Viktor's waist and caressed his sides tenderly and gently. Viktor moaned quietly and moved his hands to nape of Liam's neck and started to work there. They weren't counting time, they haven't even noticed raising moon behind the windows of the van. Suddenly Viktor pulled back quickly, with strange expression on his face.
"Is something wrong?" Liam asked immediately. Viktor was coughing a little.
"I forgot to breathe." He said between coughs and Liam started to laugh hardly. When Viktor caught his breath they shared one cute look and then Viktor smiled.
"You make perfect coffee." Liam laughed once more and placed light kiss on Viktor's lips. Then he took the mug and finished the drink. He was thinking for a few seconds and then he spoke.
"Yes, I do make a perfect coffee." Viktor looked out of the window.
"What's the time?" He asked and Liam looked at his watch.
"Quarter to eight, why? Do you have to be on your base?" Viktor shook his head.
"No. I just wanted to know. Zo, what are we going to do now?" He stretched his back and nearly fell from the counter. Liam's hands jerked but when he saw that Viktor is OK, he shrugged.
"I don't know. We should go to bed." Viktor looked at him above the frames of his glasses.
"After zhe coffee, right?" Liam smiled.
"We don't have to sleep. We could talk or…I don't know." Medic nodded and climbed off the counter. After they were completely ready for bed, they lay on it, side by side. Liam turned off the light and looked at Viktor. He took surgeon's skilled hand and played with it on the level of his heart. Viktor looked at him with question in his eyes. Liam took a breath, he looked like he was going to say something, but he stood quiet. Then he frowned and pulled, then pushed Viktor's index finger so they heard a quiet crash of his joints. Liam smiled and repeated it on middle finger.
"I zee zhat you want to say something. What iz it?" Viktor said, but Liam didn't respond. He kept on playing with the smaller hand instead. Medic took his hand away from Liam's reach and rolled from his back to his belly and looked at the sniper.
"Come on, I want to know it. If somezhing bothers you, tell me." Liam gave him a shy smile and ran a hand through his hair.
"Y-you know, I wanted to ask you if…" He looked in Viktor's dark blue eyes and ended his sentence.
"If you won't mind to have a…relationship. With me." The German looked surprised.
"Aren't we in one already?"
"Yes, we are. But…argh, I don't know how to say it!" Liam mumbled angrily.
"If it counts as a couple? Ja, I zhink zhat it should." Viktor helped him and Liam just nodded. And then smiled. They both smiled at each other and the doctor leaned forward and stole a kiss from the assassin. Liam smiled in the kiss and embraced Viktor's sides with his palms. When their lips parted, they held each other close and slowly dozed off, even when they had coffee maybe ten minutes ago. For Liam there was nothing more important in the whole universe and dimension than Viktor. And for Viktor was the most important thing in the whole world Liam. They were so focused on each other's presence, that they didn't see the blue shadow behind the window of the van, spying on them and then disappearing inaudibly.
