You like the new scent I got? [Astaldo had chosen it very carefully, wanting something they both would like since they often bathed together.]

I was worried it would be too flowery for your taste but it smelled like spring.

[castintoflames]

I do. (He purposefully leans back, soaking his hair in the water.) Why would I complain about Spring?

Spring best suits you. (The season is so warm and sweet like his Finno's kisses.)

[consumedbyfire]

If there are any scents you want, I can look for them as well. [It was their bath after all. He leaned back against Tambe's chest with a happy sigh, wanting to be close to him.]

I think I'm going to snuggle close to you tonight for certain.

[castintoflames]

I like... (He sounds awkward as he finishes:) ...lavender? Ammë put it under my pillow when I was having trouble sleeping.

(Tambë rests against Astaldo's back, stroking his fingers over his chest.)

Please do.

[consumedbyfire]

I will find lavender. [He would get some as well to put under their pillow, he wanted his husband to be relaxed as much as possible. Their bed was their special place.]

I want our bed to be the most comfortable place for both of us.

[castintoflames]

(His ears turn red and he nuzzles the side of Astaldo's neck, kissing the silken skin.)

Do you mind the scent? I don't mind doing without it. You are infinitely more comforting than any herb or flower.

[consumedbyfire]

I like the scent of lavender actually. I had been thinking about scenting our pillow and sheets so our bed would smell nice all the time.

[He groaned softly, closing his eyes. His lover always seemed to be able to find the sensitive parts on his neck.]

[castintoflames]

It's a light enough scent that it won't overwhelm us. (Tambë murmurs, kissing a line up to his lover's ear.) I trust your nose, love.

[consumedbyfire]

[He shivered, putting a hand on Tambe's leg.]

Thank you love. It's our special place, our sanctuary. I want it to be perfect.

[castintoflames]

(He smiles and hugs Astaldo tighter, humming.)

You are perfect. If you are in the bed, it is perfect to me.

[consumedbyfire]

I have an amazing husband.

[That he was certain of. No one, not even Tambe, would be able to convince him otherwise.]

[castintoflames]

(He makes a small sound of confusion, yet his hand moves over Astaldo's abdomen lovingly.)

I was not seeking to be amazing; I was telling the truth.

[consumedbyfire]

I know, love. You would never lie to me.

[Astaldo put his hand on Tambe's, rubbing his thumb across his hand idly.]

[castintoflames]

Only because lying to you is impossible. (He huffs and turns his hand so their fingers are intwined.)

[consumedbyfire]

We know and love each other too much to ever lie. [Astaldo couldn't ever do that to Tambe. Not even about the small things even when he felt bad such as about being tired when Tambe came home.]

[castintoflames]

Mm which is why, my Finno, I know you need rest. (He opens the drain and picks Astaldo up smoothly as he stands up. Once outside of the tub, he drives his lover off first, wrapping him in the warm red robe.)

[consumedbyfire]

You know me best, Maitimo. [Astaldo wrapped his arms around Tambe's neck, allowing himself to be lifted up. He knew he wouldn't be dropped. Once he was wrapped up, he pulled the robe closer around him.]

I will rest well now.

[castintoflames]

I do. (He flushes in delight, chuckling at Astaldo in the fluffy robe.) I will carry you to bed in a moment.

(Tambë dries off and tugs on his robe before pulling his lover back into his arms.)

[consumedbyfire]

[When Tambe pulled him back, Astaldo wrapped his arms around his shoulder and leaned up to kiss him softly.]

I love it when you carry me to bed.

[castintoflames]

(He nuzzles into the kiss and walks to their bed, setting Astaldo down. Then he tugs open the tie of his lover's robe.)

I will keep you warm too.

[consumedbyfire]

[Astaldo felt warm from the bath and he got comfortable on the bed before holding his arms out for his husband.]

I can only sleep with you in the bed. I've tried sleeping while you were working and it isn't the same.

[castintoflames]

Have you really? (He smiles and slips off his robe before joining Astaldo under the covers.) I'm here, Finno. You can even rest on me.

[consumedbyfire]

I can close my eyes and rest but I can't rest as well. [He snuggled close, wrapping his arms around Tambe with a yawn.]

You're so comfortable, Maitimo.

[castintoflames]

Then I will endeavor to be available every time you wish to nap. (Tambë strokes over Astaldo's arm, humming.)

Close your eyes, Finno. (He begins to tell him an old Elven fable in a soft voice to help him sleep.)

[consumedbyfire]

[He was about to ask if Tambe really meant every single time but then he realized that if he asked it, Tambe really would be there every single time he needed him without fail.

Astaldo closed his eyes with a happy smile, holding onto Maitimo. His Maitimo. He allowed himself to slowly let go to the sound of his lover's voice, comforted by the steady rhythm of his heart and the warm.

It wasn't long before he was fast sleep, still holding onto his husband.]
