It had been a strangely quiet day. Julie had taken Gabe for the day, and one would think that Keith and Satoru would use the opportunity the same way they usually did. However, there was none of that this time. No sex or aggressive making out or anything of the sort, neither of them seemed to have the energy for it this time. Instead, most of their day had been spent cuddled up to each other. It was weird for Keith, just being like this, but he was sort of surprised that he was actually enjoying it.
The younger man smiled sleepily and pressed a kiss to Toru's forehead as he kept his arms around him. "Love you." He murmured, perfectly content with just staying like this for awhile.

Satoru blamed Gabe.
Not that it was fair to blame the child over things when the kid was barely old enough to form words, but when had Satoru ever cared about looking fair? Besides, as far as he was concerned, it was definitely Gabe's fault that both he and Keith were so tired.
It wasn't bad, though. It was warm (and with winter clawing at the city, Satoru found warmth hard to find. When he got a chill, it stayed with him.) and comfortable, and they were tangled together and it was really very nice. The elder Tora had his head on Keith's chest, listening to the ba-bum ba-bum of a calm heartbeat.
"Love you too," he mumbled back, nuzzling up at Keith's throat before settling back into his spot. "I mean it." They had their fair share of fights, and sometimes it was a little harder to see... But they were still together, weren't they? But he wanted Keith to know for certain that he meant it.

"I know you do." Keith assured him. "I do too." After everything they had put up with each other, he kinda doubted they'd of stayed together this long if neither of them really meant it.
Currently one of his hands were tracing circles on Toru's back while the other found its way to his hair. This felt so nice, just to lay here like this, he wondered why they hadn't done this sooner. He laughed quietly, trying to keep his chest from shaking too much while Satoru had his head on it. "We should do this more often. It's nice." Not that he would trade their other activities for the world, definitely not, but there was bound to be time to fit more of this into their schedule he would think.

Satoru just burrowed into Keith's warmth, pressing close and tucking his arms around the torso to play with the edge of Keith's shirt. "Gabe'd cry and break it up," he pointed out, eyes shut as he listened with one ear. The knowledge that it was cold outside just made it even nicer to be buried in this warmth. Absently he wondered if it would snow, you could occassionally smell it in the air before it came, and it smelled like snow when they'd handed off Gabe to Julie...
Not a lot, but a little would be nice.

Keith smiled and tightened his arms around Toru just slightly. "Well that's why we've got babysitters." He replied easily. Not that he didn't love his son, but it didn't hurt to have some time for the two of them from time to time. He figured they actually deserved it, between taking care of Gabe and the fact that they were running their own businesses and such, they'd earned a little bit of down time.
But he wasn't gonna let himself think too much on it right now, they had a few hours before his sister came back with Gabe and he was gonna savor this as much as possible. The hand on Satoru's back moved to where his fingers were lightly brushing along his spine and he let silence fill the room for a little longer. After a few moments he looked down at Satoru. "Hey, can I have a kiss?"

While the gunslinger was a little startled by the sudden break of the silence, it wasn't like he was going to say no to that. "Of fuckin' course," he said. Satoru shimmied a bit to get some room to move and craned his neck up to kiss the younger Tora. He was smiling, he could feel it, but it wasn't like there was anyone else around who could see and ruin his reputation, what shambles of it remained at least.
"Better return the favor," he mumbled as he nuzzled the beard. It was a weird sensation, but he liked it well enough.

Keith was smiling too, and not in the usual 'thinking of all the things we could be doing right now' kinda way. He was just happy, and he didn't see anything wrong with that. There was the smallest hint of a laugh after the kiss and he moved his head down to reach him. "Don't I always?" He asked before returning the kiss. This was nice, everything about this felt good.
