Sihtric closes the front door and can’t help the smile on his face. He breathes out slowly and turns for the closet. He pulls the door open before pulling off his coat. He slips it on a hanger before stepping back, fully prepared to close the door. But then he hears movement behind him and he turns to come face to face with a very cheeky looking Uhtred. He stumbles back into the closet door and frowns, not completely sure he likes the off look the man is giving him. “What?” He asks, frowning.
Uhtred reaches around him and grabs the coat Sihtric just hung up. He pulls it off the hanger and holds it up, shaking it out a little. He eyes it and smirks. “This looks new. I haven’t seen it before.”
Sihtric’s face flushes and he grabs it back. “It is.” He says, hanging it back up. He slams the closet door shut and pushes Uhtred away. “It uh… was a gift.” He mumbles, silently praying to all the Gods that the man will drop it.
But of course, it’s Uhtred and he doesn’t. “A gift?” He asks curiously.
There’s a knock at the door and Sihtric turns. He pulls it open and Clapa stands, framing the doorway. “Uh… hi again…” He says awkwardly, staring up at the large man.
“Sorry.” Clapa says softly and holds up a cell phone. “You forgot your phone in the car.”
Sihtric smiles and takes it. “Thanks.” He gives Clapa a quick hug and kisses his cheek.
Clapa smiles and shoves his hands in his pockets. He rocks back on his heels and leans to the side a little to peer around Sihtric. “Hey, Uhtred.”
A large smile spreads across Uhtred’s face as he recognizes the coat Clapa’s wearing immediately. “Nice coat.”
Sihtric turns and pushes Uhtred away again. “You shut up!” He hisses before turning back to Clapa. “Thanks. Uh… I’ll text you later.”
Clapa chuckles softly and nods. He turns and waves. “Goodnight, little bug.”
Sihtric watches him walk down the porch before he shuts the door. Uhtred leans against him and Sihtric sighs.
“Your giant boyfriend bought you a matching coat.” Uhtred says with a hint of a giggle in his voice. “That’s so fucking adorable.”
Sihtric pushes him away yet again as his face flushes. “Shut up.” He says and Uhtred just giggles.
