Patton giggled. He and Remus were on dishes duty that morning which turned into snapping towels and spraying water at each other. They were soaking, giggling messes by the time they were done. They laid on the floor for a while giggling and poking each other feeding off of the pure euphoria of being in love.

"We should probably get off the floor, Pattycakes."
"Yeah."
"You said that but you're not moving."
"Well I'd rather stay here with you, Rem."
"You can be with me somewhere more comfortable."
"Ok. Help me up?"
"Sure thing, darling."

Remus got up and pulled Patton to his feet, who wasn't quite ready to be standing and fell into him.

Patton giggled. "Looks like I've fallen for you all over again."
"You're such a-"
"Whale-"
"Oh my goodness. You're never going to let that go, are you?"
"Nope!" Patton leaned in for a kiss.

Unbeknownst to the couple, Dee and Logan had gotten up to refill their tea and witnessed the whole thing before sharing a smirk and leaving.

"It's about time," Logan said.
"I'll say. Do you think he'll talk about Patton more or less now?"
"Depends how long they can keep it a secret from Roman and Virgil."
"That's true. Roman won't notice unless he walks in like we did, which is not probable considering how loud he is."
"Well you know what he says, Dee. He just wants us all to know we're being graced with his presence."
"I just wish his gracing presence was a couple decibels quieter, though Virgil is so quiet I guess he's making noise for the both of them."
"They do balance each other out quite nicely."
"I think Patton and Remus will, too. I wonder how long they've been together. It must have been Christmas, right?"
"Definitely. They were close when we arrived, most likely due to being alone here during a power outage, but Christmas Patton definitely put two and two together about the sweater."
"I was wondering how long it would take him after Remus slipped up making that comment about the stitch. I still can't believe he learned to knit after Patton made one singular comment about that sweater in the show window at the mall."
"He spaced out a lot, but he always paid attention to the things that mattered, most of which had to do with Patton."
"Once they tell us we should recommend that aquarium you took me to. That jellyfish room was like magic. I was of course partial to the sea snake exhibit, but jellyfish are officially my second favorite animal. I'll always think of you when I see them."

Logan was rendered speechless and blushed. He was never good at the mushy stuff. Even when he asked Dee out under the jellyfish he had trouble to the point where he almost couldn't do it.

"Look at you all flustered. My blushing honey bee. You don't need to say anything back. You show me how you feel everyday."
"I love you."
"I love you too darling. Now, do you think they're done in there and we can get some more tea?"
"Maybe we should start laughing loudly before we get to the door."
"Perfect. I have a joke you'll appreciate."
"It better not be a pun."
"We both know the only reason you don't like puns is because you refuse to like them."
"That still just means I don't like them."
"You're too much."
"I am exactly the right amount of much, thank you."
"If you say so."
"I do."

Roman had dedicated the day to helping Virgil with his painting. He needed a model for another one of his concepts and Roman was more than happy to oblige. Most of the time unless Virgil was trying to paint clothes in a specific way, he did nude modeling. This time was no different.

"Paint me like one of your french girls?"
"I don't have any. We haven't been to Paris yet."
Roman chuckled. "What are you painting this time anyway?"
Virgil thrust a piece of paper with a rough sketch on it towards him. "Look for yourself."
"I like this pose you've chosen. Are you going to enter this one into the art show?"
"We'll see how I like it when it's done. The first painting I enter-"
"Has to be perfect so that you'll have more of a chance of winning a spot in the gallery so they'll be more likely to take future pieces."
"You got it."
"Makes sense you would choose me to model, then. I'm gorgeous so of course they'll love your painting."
"You're full of it."
"If by it you mean beauty and talent then you are correct."
Virgil rolled his eyes and smirked. "Keep bragging and I'll ask Remus to model."
"You wouldn't."
"I don't know. You two are pretty similar looking so he would be just as good of a model for this piece." Virgil teased.
"You're forgetting you need a nude model."
He had forgotten that. "... Shut up and pose."
