Midnight Manor Private Residence, Monday Evening

[pocketpretzels]

A Thanksgiving feast, even when just for two(ish) people, was still a feast, and thus had required both yesterday and today to be properly prepared. Most of the dishes were the same as last year: the main along with the side dishes of vegetables, potatoes, and stuffing. And yes, of course there were dinner rolls.

New this year was a soup and simple garden salad. Dessert was also the same as last year, with apple cake and butter tarts (along with a batch of the non-vegan variety that had been set aside for Marc).

"It looks fantastic," Watts said, surveying everything laid out on the dining room table. "Will you light the candles, then, while I go fetch us a bottle of wine?"

Watts leaned in to kiss him. "Then I shall continue."

[hasaknightjob]

Steven kissed Llewellyn back hungrily. He moved his hand up to tangle in Llewellyn's hair and keep him there.

[pocketpretzels]

Watts wasn't going anywhere. At least, not yet, content to continue kissing Steven while keeping up those gentle strokes.

[hasaknightjob]

Steven made a needy sound as Llewellyn made him feel warmer and warmer. He moved his hand down so he could caress Llewellyn's neck as they kept kissing.

[pocketpretzels]

Watts shifted slightly, moving his kisses from Steven's lips to his jaw, and then a spot at the crook of his neck.

[hasaknightjob]

"Go ahead," Steven murmured, since he suspected what Llewellyn wanted to do.

[pocketpretzels]

Being given permission before even having to ask had Watts pausing for a moment, moving so he could look Steven in the eyes. "I love you," he declared fervently.

[hasaknightjob]

"I love you too," Steven said. Both a response to Llewellyn saying it and a confirmation of why he didn't mind offering.

[pocketpretzels]

And with that, Watts moved to perform his task with great enthusiasm, starting with a light nip at that specific spot.

[hasaknightjob]

Steven gave a soft squeak. He moved his hand to Llewellyn's shoulder to hold on while Llewellyn left a mark on him. "Yes. Like that."

[pocketpretzels]

Watts lightly scraped his teeth over the spot once more before he began sucking in earnest in order to leave his mark.

[hasaknightjob]

Steven tried to hold still as best he could, though it was difficult given the way what Llewellyn was doing made him want to squirm. At least most of the squirming was lower down?

[pocketpretzels]

And for all that most of his focus was on that spot on Steven's neck, Watts was not ignoring what was happening lower down, certainly, as his hand continued to stroke and caress.

[hasaknightjob]

Steven gave happy little whimpers as everything Llewellyn did made him feel warm and hungry for more.

"Please," he murmured. "That? Please?"

[pocketpretzels]

"Just my hand?" Watts checked. "I was thinking of using my mouth as well."

[hasaknightjob]

"Meant - in general," Steven said, his breathing rough. "I - I like what you're doing. All of it."

[pocketpretzels]

"All right," Watts said, more than a little pleased at that rough breathing. Meant he was doing things right, after all. He pressed one more kiss to the mark he'd made and then moved on to pressing kisses along the line of Steven's collarbone.

[hasaknightjob]

Steven tilted his head to give Llewellyn room to work with. He tangled a hand in Llewellyn's hair to encourage him to keep going. "I like you. Generally. It's good."

[pocketpretzels]

Watts laughed softly against Steven's skin. "I like you generally as well, my darling," he said, voice full of affection.

[hasaknightjob]

Llewellyn's breath on his skin tickled, which got Steven laughing as well.

"I - I like all of you. Everything you do. Are doing. Right now. And otherwise."

[pocketpretzels]

"I'm glad," Watts said, in between the kisses he continued to pepper across Steven's skin. "And I can trust you, of course, to say if that changes?"

[hasaknightjob]

"About what you're doing?" Steven asked, to be sure. "Because then yeah. You I won't change. I love you."

[pocketpretzels]

"About what I am doing," Watts confirmed, warmth curling in his chest at Steven's statement that his love wouldn't change.

[hasaknightjob]

"I promise I'll say if I don't like what you're doing," Steven said.

Then, since it was sort of on topic, "Wouldn't mind you getting your kit off but don't particularly want you to stop what you're doing either."

[pocketpretzels]

"Mmm, if I promise to do so eventually?" Watts asked, because he didn't particularly want to stop either.
