"Which one?" Jude asked, smiling as he glanced from Nyx to the screen, "There's the Natural History Museum, the art museum in the Bronx, and the other art and design one, which isn't too far."

Nyx blinked. "Uhm…we can do them in that order?" he questioned, unsure which one he wanted to go to the most.

Jude nodded, double-checking the open hours before turning back to Nyx. "Sure," He smiled, "The Natural History Museum's only a short ride from here, and I think you're gonna like it."

Nyx smiled happily. "Yay! Thank you, Jude!" He wrapped his arms around the other man, kissing his cheek and smiling.

Jude blinked as he was enveloped in a sudden hug, letting out a quiet laugh as his expression softened and he ran a hand through Nyx's hair, smiling as he mumbled a shy "You're welcome."

Nyx snuggled close, smiling as he held onto Jude. He buried his face in Jude's shoulder, letting out a faint breath.

Jude gently moved the laptop from Nyx's lap to the edge of the coffee table. His arms came to slowly wrap around Nyx, and his smile faded as he tried to recall the last time anyone else had held him in such honest affection.

Nyx leaned into Jude happily, holding onto him. He closed his eyes, still smiling softly. He liked this; holding Jude and being held in return.

Jude let out a faint sigh, letting himself stay like this for another silent moment before reaching up to comb a hand through Nyx's hair. "We should probably get ready," He said a little reluctantly, really just wanting to stay for a while longer.

Nyx sighed faintly. "Mmph." he grumbled. "Do we have to?" he snuggled closer to Jude, nuzzling him a little bit.

"Mmm you tell me," Jude mumbled, smiling as he trailed gentle touches down Nyx's back, "You wanna go out 'n about, but we're not gonna have much time if we stay inside, all comfy like this."

Nyx leaned into the touches, sighing faintly. "But I like this." he whined, still holding onto Jude contentedly.

"I know, I like this too," Jude said with a soft laugh, smiling as he let out a comfortable sigh, "Staying in our pyjamas and cuddling is fine by me, but you said you wanted to go out."

Nyx whined. "But I wanna do both, Jude." He complained, still snuggled up close to Jude, practically in the other's lap.

Jude smiled, freeing a hand to push back his hair. "Mhmm," He hummed, leaning comfortably into the sofa with Nyx holding him close, "Yeah we can do both– but the question is, how long d'you wanna stay here, like this? Cause It could change the time we have to do other stuff."

Nyx hummed faintly. "It's not fair. There isn't enough time to do everything." he grumbled, snuggling closer to Jude and letting out a quiet breath.

Jude let out a soft laugh. "There is time," He smiled, nodding faintly as he traced idle touches down Nyx's back, quietly remembering he needed to text his friends back, "–Tomorrow and the days after that, we have time. And aside from a few chores and errands, we can do what we like."

(alright! Have fun!)

Nyx sighed faintly. "But there's so much to do." he pointed out, frowning. "And we won't have time for all of it."

"Sure we will," Jude said, thinking of all the museums and happy smiles ahead, "And it isn't a race to do as much as possible in one day; sometimes you need to just enjoy doing little things, right? Just do what you feel like doing."

Nyx let out a quiet breath, holding onto Jude. "But…I wanna do both today." He pouted a little bit, squirming slightly as he held onto Jude.

"We can," Jude said, letting out a soft laugh at Nyx fidgeting in his lap, "–But we gotta watch the time. Cause if we spend too much time in here, we'll have less time out there."

Nyx stayed pressed close. "That's lame." he complained. "I want to have time in everywhere and do everything." he mumbled.

Jude smiled, running a slow hand through Nyx's hair. "Hm, we all want more time. There's only so much we can do in a day, and it's nice that you wanna do so much," He said, closing his eyes for a moment, "Though some days, it's nice to just slow down for a bit."

Nyx sighed unhappily. "But it's not fair." he grumbled, shaking his head.
