[He takes his hand when he sits.]

It's alright. It's hard sometimes to know what sets him off. I don't even think he knows sometimes.

But he's a good kid and I trust our friendship.

Besides, how many times have you wanted to storm out on me, hm?

[lestercraft]

[He gives a soft chuckle, and lets his head rest on Sheehan's shoulder.]

Fair enough. And still - for my first conversation with him, it certainly could have gone far worse.

[heyboss]

[He curls an arm around Arthur and presses a kiss to his head.]

It really could have.

Now. Let's go back to bed?

[lestercraft]

[He gives a soft huff at the kiss, and leans up to kiss his husband back properly.]

I'll be right there. Just going to put these back in the kitchen for now.

[heyboss]

[He stands up and feels the stress and exhaustion of the day weighing at his body. He feels old.]

Thanks, detective.

[He watches him a moment after that kiss, but ultimately trudges back to their bedroom for bed.]

[lestercraft]

[And Arthur is only a minute; just long enough to pour the cups out and toss the teabags. The rest is John's problem.

Because instead he's going straight back to bed so he can cuddle his husband and steal his warmth back all over again.]

[Sheehan's already half asleep by the time Arthur joins him, but he does wake up enough to wrap his arms around him to hold him close.]
