Work Text:
Uki and Ike were curled up together on the couch in their shared apartment, as a movie they were watching was playing in the background. All the lights were off, and the only illumination was the tv screen.
Uki could feel themself slowly start nodding off, as their eyelids grew heavy and they were struggling to keep their eyes open. They buried themself further into Ike’s lap.
Ike smiled warmly as he looked at the psychic. Everyone knew he had the worst sleep schedule known to man, so he was used to staying up this late. But he wasn’t sure if Uki was also used to it.
“Uki, we don’t have to keep watching this, you know. Feel free to go to bed if you want to.” Ike spoke with nothing but sincerity in his voice.
“It’s fine…,” They mumbled tiredly, “It’s more comfortable here anyway…”
“I don’t think my lap is more comfortable than an actual bed, Ukiki.” Ike giggled softly.
He then carefully moved Uki off his lap and the couch as he turned the tv off. He carried Uki bridal style as he walked to the bedroom and laid them down before joining them in the bed. Both comfortable under the soft covers.
“Hmmm…so warm…” Uki murmured, resulting in another giggle from Ike.
“Hehe, you’re so cute.” Ike complimented before Uki firmly wrapped their arms around him. It did catch him a little off guard, especially because of how tired they were.
“No…you’re cuter…” They gushed sleepily. Proud of themself with how flustered they made Ike.
“Uki!-“ Ike quickly exclaimed before the psychic pulled him in for a soft kiss.
It wasn’t anything spicy or intense, just a simple kiss on the lips. Full of love and care for each other. Ike’s eyes widened but he soon melted into the kiss as he brought up his hands to gently cup Uki’s face.
As they slowly pulled away, Ike still was softly caressing Uki’s cheek. They could only see the faint silhouette of each other, but the novelist could feel his psychic's wide smile as they started running their fingers through his hair.
“I love you, Ukiki.” Ike whispered as he wrapped his arms around his lover.
“I love you too, Ikey…” Uki responded as they reciprocated the action. They slightly adjusted their position so they could rest their head on Ike’s shoulder.
It wasn’t long until Uki fell asleep. Ike looked down at their face. They looked so calm and relaxed. Their best features highlighted by the faint moonlight that that shined through the window. “My starlight” Ike softly whispered as he planted a kiss on Uki’s forehead. Before he shut his eyes as well, waiting for the sleepiness to wash over him while listening to the heartbeat of his beloved psychic.
I want to stay like this forever
And they both drifted off to a comforting sleep in each others warm embrace. Free of any worry.
