Night was closing in, all the X-men retreated to their own sanctuaries for much needed rest. It was important for them to rest, they are heroes after all, how can they save anyone with little sleep? In the hall, Piotr was about to enter his room, he always cherished a full night of sleep after a long day. Being an X-man made him appreciate it more. Morph, as quietly as they could, speed walked to Piotr with those big pleading eyes they make when they want something. Morph already looked ready for bed, dressed in silky pajamas and smelling fragrant, clearly having took a bath earlier. Piotr silently nodded, he’s used to this by now.
Whenever Morph is feeling restless in the evening, they quietly sneak into Piotrs room, there they would lay down in Piotr’s bed and snuggle up together. It helped Morph feel safe, like his metal boyfriend would beat Sinister’s ass if he ever got close, helped Morph sleep deeply knowing they were protected. Piotr held Morph close, always tried to stay awake before Morph fell asleep. He occupied himself with gently caressing Morph until they felt safe enough to drift off to sleep. They had to be quiet when doing this, their relationship was something agreed to be private until they were both ready to tell the rest of the X-men, for now they appreciated the small amount of time they get to spend together.
Morph welcomed themselves in, quickly crawling into Piotr’s bed to occupy their side of the bed. Piotr just smiled, he couldn’t join them just yet, (no matter how much he wanted to) he went to the bathroom to finish doing his bedtime routine first. Meanwhile Morph got comfortable, they turned off the main light and turned on a small lamp on Piotr’s night stand. They evened out the blankets and puffed up the two pillows, quickly testing them for comfortability before moving onto stretching their arms out and letting out a big yawn. Piotr came out with only his boxers on, Morph noticed and grinned like a pervert at him, “No funny business” Piotr whispered climbing into bed, Morph pouted sticking their bottom lip out exaggeratedly at him. He draped their shared blanket over his body and turned to Morph, he continued, “Snowball, can you not keep your libido down for a day?” Morph thought about it for a second, “Well, not when you’re in your underwear in bed with me” Piotr rolled his eyes with a small smile, and playfully pinched where Morph’s nose would be, “Im simply getting comfortable” Piotr said quietly, now laying fully down, he opened his arms up, “Come close now”
“Whatever you say, almost fully naked guy”
Morph whispered and eagerly scooted over, now their cheek close to Piotr’s chest, they let out a big sigh. Their head was resting on his bicep, Piotr closed the gap quickly. His big hand cradling Morph’s head to give them a long kiss on the lips, Morph went to deepen the kiss with additional tongue. Piotr gladly accepted it, making Morph let out a cheery noise, kiss now becoming sloppy. Piotr could feel how Morph’s flesh became malleable under his fingers, a sign of deep relaxation. When he pulled away, Morph grinned at him like a dummy. Piotr huffed and pressed a kiss into their head. Then they snuggled up close, Piotr’s head leaning on Morph’s, “I hope your sleep is peaceful tonight” Piotr whispered sweetly, Morph gave a single nod and small noise of agreement, their eyes struggling to stay open they mumbled out, “Good night, Piotr” They lazily smiled at him, even if he couldn’t see it, “I love you”, Piotr flushed up a little, “I love you too, Snowball” With a click he turned off his lamp, letting the room cover them with a blanket of darkness.
