“Yeah, I understand… I just want you to know that you can always tell me about your anxiety. You don’t have to feel the need to lie to me about when you feel upset,” Vaughn said in a gentle tone, his thumb now rubbing gently at Kaz’s lower lip.
"Okay," Kaz mumbled, a small smile working its way across his face. Just Vaughn's words helped ease his anxiety a little. He knew it would probably take a little while to talk about his anxiety, but he was sure he could try to be a little better
“Good.. Let me cuddle you now,” Vaughn mumbled, pulling Kaz back against his chest. He pressed a kiss to the top of Kaz’s head, a hand gently massaging at his scalp and in his curls.
Kaz laughed a little as Vaughn pulled him closer, letting his eyes fall closed as he buried his face in Vaughn’s chest. He loved when Vaughn would get cuddly like this
Vaughn gave a gentle sigh, chewing softly at his lower lip. He reached over and pulled up the covers, laying them over top of Kaz’s body. He didn’t get them too far on himself, being a bit too hot at the moment.
Kaz mumbled something that sounded vaguely like a thanks as Vaughn pulled the covers on top of them. He wanted nothing more than to fall back asleep, especially with the way his ankles and back were aching at the moment
Vaughn gently rubbed Kaz’s skin, noticing the other looked tired. He rubbed Kaz’s shoulders and lower back slowly, trying to soothe the other into sleep.
Kaz could feel himself drifting off again, the way Vaughn rubbed at his back helping to soothe the ache in his bones. “Love you,” he mumbled, barely audible against Vaughn’s chest
“Love you too,” Vaughn said quietly in response to Kaz. He kissed gently at Kaz’s forehead, continuing to rub at Kaz’s muscle. He could tell that Kaz liked it, so he made a mental note to do this more often.
Kaz dozed off relatively quickly, his sleep peaceful for once as he laid next to Vaughn. Though an hour or so later he was jolted awake by a loud pounding on the door. "Weathers, Finley, you have ten minutes to get ready before escort," came a man's voice, Kaz muttering something that sounded vaguely like swearing in German as he shifted a little in place
(I'm back!!!)
(heyy)
(Barely got tan at all.. lol)
(lol I don't tan, I burn and get a bunch of freckles)
(I either tan or get a really bad burn)
(Oof, that’s either good or sucky)
Vaughn frowned heavily at the door as he listened to the man’s voice. “Where do you think we are going?” He questioned. He hadn’t slept before, his slight anxiety about Kaz keeping him awake.
"Hopefully outside or something. Or maybe food," Kaz grumbled, still hugging Vaughn to his chest stubbornly. "Fucking don't want to go anywhere, and Kaon is bitching about it too."
Vaughn shifted a bit in Kaz’s grip, smiling very faintly at the other. “Come on, let’s just go. They’ll probably drag us up if we aren’t ready to go soon,” he pointed out.
Jules was back from the hospital after [insert however much time passed]. She couldn't eat or sleep because of the voices and had been heavily medicated and "IV'd" to counteract these issues. Two male guards and female scientist escorted her back to her room, the voices had gotten better and after her time in the hospital she had figured it out, she was hearing thoughts. The guards were completely oblivious, they'd be easy to sneak past, she thought, and the woman was concerned but elated. She could hear small snippets of voices but things were not nearly as bad as before.
"They can drag my motherfucking dead body," Kaz muttered bitterly, wrapping himself around Vaughn in protest. Or they can drag their own dead bodies, his mind chimed in, as tired and irritated as he was as it spoke
“Come on, Kaz. At least let me up,” Vaughn sighed, gently trying to pull Kaz’s arms off of him. “I’ve got to change, and I’d rather not be dragged around like a rag doll.”
Kaz made a loud, exaggerated noise of protest before letting go of Vaughn's arm. He reached for a pillow, hugging it to his chest in a sorry substitute for Vaughn. He didn't care about his appearance and wanted more sleep
Vaughn got out of bed with a huff once Kaz had let him go. He grabbed a fresh change of clothes, dropping them onto the bed. He unbuttoned his shirt, tossing that aside before his undershirt was pulled off next.
Kaz rolled onto his side, opening an eye as he cracked a grin. "Damn, baby, look at those curves," he laughed as he glanced over at Vaughn. He knew he was probably being annoying, he just couldn't help himself
“Ah, shut up,” Vaughn muttered with a slight chuckle. He unbuckled his trousers, tugging them down and stepping out of them. “You going to stare or am I going to get privacy so I can actually change?” He asked, motioning to his boxers.
