Puzzles blinked awake, warm sunlight filtering through the curtains, making the room seem softer than usual. He looked over, seeing WPNZ lying beside him, still asleep. The showman smiled and reached a hand over, brushing the back of his hand against his cheek, feeling the warmth radiating off him. Puzzles took his hand off and lied it onto his stomach, bringing his other over to fiddle with the sheets as he stared up at the ceiling.
Last night was… amazing. It was everything Puzzles had hoped for, the fancy restaurant, the dancing, the proposal... everything was too perfect for him. He remembered the necklace and reached up to bring it up to the light, inspecting the lock with careful thought.
He noticed how the other end slipped down the chain and he moved his other hand to pick it up as well, watching as the light shimmered off it as he twisted it this way and that. Curiously, he tugged on the lock end, noticing how the chain tightened ever so slightly against his neck; his eyes widened immediately, a blush quick to spread across his face. Of course WPNZ would get him something like this, his partner was so unbelievably freaky it was hard to expect much less.
Looking back over at WPNZ, he smiled; he always loved watching him sleep, sure it might’ve been weird, but Puzzles always loved watching his relaxed expressions; he rolled onto his side and brought a hand over to cup the side of the gunman’s face, thumb brushing just under his eye, smile growing wider as he watched as WPNZ slowly blinked his eyes open, looking around for a moment before his eyes looked up at Puzzles, a lazy smile forming on his face.
“Good morning, my star~” Puzzles purred, eyes softening as he stared into the gunman’s warm, yellow eyes.
“…good morning to you too, darlin’,” WPNZ said, voice rumbling as he brought one of his own hands up to lay over Puzzles’. “How’d I do?”
“On what?” Puzzles asked.
“On the date, Y’know. Did I do good pickin’ out all the stuff?” WPNZ asked, genuinely curious if Puzzles enjoyed himself or not; the Meggy part was a big downgrade, but he hoped he got it on track afterwards.
"Of course you did, dear," Puzzles said, voice soft as he stared into his partner's yellow eyes. "You did absoluetly perfect." WPNZ smiled, a low purr starting to rise from his throat as he let his cheek be caressed by Puzzles, closing his eyes.
Puzzles snickered at him and scooched himself closer, bringing WPNZ into his arms and squeezing the gunman lovingly; WPNZ's purring only grew louder, now Puzzles could feeling the rumbling through where there bodies touched, and he let out a small purr of his own, making the assassin chuckle and hug him close as well
They stayed like that for at least an hour, closed eyes, warm breaths, and soft purring filling the air as their arms hugged onto each other, legs tangling together, making Puzzles realize, once again, that they both were still naked; but this time, he didn’t mind all that much, the feeling of the gunman’s warm thighs pressed up against his bare wired legs was a pleasant feeling to his sleepy mind.
WPNZ realized that they were naked too, his eyes snapping open to stare into Puzzles’ chest, forcing himself to not look down and see how close they were to each other. He shut his eyes again, squeezing Puzzles a bit closer as he nuzzled his face into the taller’s soft skin, drawing a giggle out of him.
They both let out a relaxed sigh, shoulders relaxing as they held each other, breaths mingling together as their eyes slipped closed. WPNZ was really glad that Puzzles enjoyed the date, even though things went a little rocky. Tilting his head into Puzzles’ shoulder, he breathed in the smell of copper and oranges there. Oh, how he enjoyed moments like this, just the two of them cuddled in each others arms, even if they didn’t even have a shred of clothing on their bodies.
Actually…
WPNZ slowly untangled himself from Puzzles, making the taller whine at the loss of heat. “Don’t worry, jus’ grabbin’ some clothes.” WPNZ said, grabbing his hands and giving it a light squeeze before letting it go and walking over to his dresser; he paused, and looked back at Puzzles, still lying on the bed. “Do you want some clothes too?”
“Yes, please.” Puzzles said, shooting him a small smile as the gunman turned back to rifle through the dressers.
WPNZ thought about giving Puzzles one of his shirts, just so he could see how cute he was in it; that thought alone made a huge smile spread across his face, and he nodded to himself, pulling out two of his shirts and closing the drawer, now moving to the lower one’s.
Puzzles watched him, a lovestruck smile plastered on his face as he watched the gunman grab various articles of clothing. This was a nice start to their day, some snuggling in bed before deciding to get dressed, maybe they would watch a movie on the couch later too! Puzzles giggled at the thought, being able to watch a movie while lying on top of WPNZ sounded so fun and relaxing right now.
WPNZ eventually turned back to Puzzles, handing him a pile of clothes. Puzzles sat up on the edge of the bed, inspecting the pile as WPNZ started getting dressed. There was a shirt that was obviously WPNZ's, since it was like triple his size, a pair of his pajama pants, boxers, and.. one of his binders? He looked up at WPNZ, confused on why he had been given a binder.
“Oh yeah, I gave ya one ‘cause… uhm, well ya always seem, uh…” WPNZ trailed off, rubbing the back of his neck as he tried to think of the words, a thin blush forming on his face.
Puzzles smirked up at him, a matching blush creeping onto his screen. It warmed the showman’s heart that WPNZ had noticed that, and he stood up, bringing the gunman in for a tight hug.
WPNZ let out a small, surprised squeak as Puzzles squeezed him, making his face press into the taller’s stomach. Puzzles held him there for a moment longer before letting him go, letting WPNZ regain his balance before leaning down and kissing him on the lips.
WPNZ was blushing heavily at this point, Puzzles was just kissing him like nothing else mattered, and his hands were set on his shoulders, thumbs rubbing at his warm synthetic skin. Soon enough he hummed and leaned into him, his eyes slipping shut and body relaxing into the feel of Puzzles’.
Puzzles eventually pulled away, keeping their foreheads pressed together as he stared into the gunman’s eyes.
“You are so cute,” Puzzles said, a hint of tease slipping into his voice as one of his hands moved up to caress the shorter’s cheek.
“no ‘m not…” WPNZ argued, though the sleepiness filling his voice and the low purring coming from his throat was an indicator that he was definitely wrong. Puzzles gave out a small titter and stood back up, and the assassin give out a small huff of air when the hand that had been holding his head up was gone.
“Well, dear, shouldn’t we get dressed?” Puzzles questioned, fidgeting with the end of a pant leg as he stared down at the partially-dressed gunman. He nodded, only half listening to what his fiancé was saying as he just admired his beauty. He snapped out of his trance-like state when Puzzles set down the pile of clothes and pulled on the boxers, shimmying them up his outrageously long legs.
He shook his head and turned back to his own pile of clothes, pulling a shirt over his head. He grabbed his pants then paused, he didn’t have to go on a hit today, but he did tomorrow. He grinned and set the pants back down on the dresser and turned back to Puzzles, who was struggling with the binder.
“Need any help there, Shakespeare?” WPNZ asked, taking a stepped towards the showman. Puzzles shook with head, and with a grunt, he finally pulled it over his TV head, a breath leaving him as the pressure of it settled on his chest; he could admit that the feeling of the binder did feel nice, and calm the buzzing feeling of anxiety that was gnawing at the back of his mind. He readjusted it for a moment before picking up the shirt that was totally not WPNZ’s. It went over his head much better than the binder and he gave a little nod to himself, satisfied with the outfit.
He heard WPNZ give out a little chuckle, and he turned around, looking down at the assassin with mild confusion. WPNZ only stepped closer to him, now standing right beside him, and hooked an arm around him, tugging him close to his side. Puzzles’ eyes widened, but he relaxed into the touch, letting WPNZ guide him out of the bedroom and into the living room, where Puzzles took the opportunity to flop himself onto the couch, burying his screen in one of the pillows on it.
WPNZ chuckled at his silly partner and walked into the kitchen to prepare some breakfast for them. Puzzles waited until WPNZ’s footsteps faded, then rolled over onto his side, watching as the sunlight danced across the ceiling in warm rays. He hummed, a familiar tune, A Lovely Nightby Ryan Gosling & Emma Stone. He really loved this song, mainly because it reminded him of WPNZ and himself. He closed his eyes, still humming the song as he relaxed into the couch more fully.
WPNZ smiled and picked up two plates, both with three slices of French toast on them. Walking towards the doorway and paused, hear a faint humming coming from the living room. He hesitated for a brief moment, then continued making his way over to the couch.
Finally reaching the couch, he discovered the source of the noise; Puzzles was humming… something… and gently bobbing his head to the beat. WPNZ smiled down at him and set both plates down on the table, turning to Puzzles afterwards. Letting out a small, soft chuckle, he leaned down, cupping a hand over a corner of the showman’s TV head.
Puzzles’ eyes snapped open at the touch, looking up at the weapon with a blush on his display.
“Hello, amore mio~” Puzzles whispered up at him, tilting his head into the gunman’s hand, making WPNZ blush even harder, his pupils dilating a fraction. “Come here…” Puzzles said, tugging on his arm, eventually getting him to lay down on the couch; Puzzles maneuvered himself on top of the gunman, nuzzling his TV head into the shorter’s chest, a low purr leaving him.
WPNZ stared down at him in surprise, admiring him for a moment before wrapping his arms around him, burying his face in the place in between the taller’s antennae; Puzzles jolted a bit at the sensation, he didn’t expect WPNZ to do that, and he also didn’t expect that place to be so fucking sensitive. He let out a small giggle with every breath WPNZ took, a shiver running down his spine.
“I see you made some food?” Puzzles said, looking over at the plates on the table. WPNZ let out a hum, nodding a little as he scooted himself up the couch, now sitting up against the armrest.
Puzzles leaned over and grabbed the plates, carefully rolling onto his back and setting one of the plates on his stomach, reaching up and handing the other to WPNZ, who took it with a quiet ‘thank you,’ carefully balancing it between his chest and Puzzles’ TV head.
The pair fell into silence, the soft whirring of Puzzles’ internal fans filled the quiet, and the assassin let out a pleased sound, relaxing into the couch while eating his food. This was such a nice moment, just the two sitting with each other and eating their food, no talk necessary.
After a little bit, Puzzles leaned over and set his now empty plate on the couch, grabbing the TV remote while he was at it, bringing it back over to the couch and turning it on, making the assassin look over.
“Whatcha gonna put on?” WPNZ asked, looking down at the showman nestled between his legs.
“You’ll see~” Puzzles replied, flicking through the various channels until he settled one, putting the remote back on the table and snuggling into his boyfriend’s lap, humming as the intro started to play.
WPNZ also watched, although he was still eating, and also trying not to just watch Puzzles the entire time, because he knew how mad the TV host would be if he didn’t watch the movie he put on; because last time, he was forced to watch the whole movie again, and he definitely didn’t want to do that again.
“Really? Hamilton again?” WPNZ chuckled, the Didney intro being taken over by an array of ticks and other noises, and soon the actual intro started playing.
“Yes! It’s a good movie! And you’ve never watched it with me.” Puzzles huffed.
“Yes but-“
“Shush! It’s starting!” Puzzles interrupted him, slapping a hand over his mouth, making the assassin grumble.
The sound of music filled the silence, and the couple watched, one with more boredom than the other.
WPNZ had to admit, the actors and stage were impressive, the amount of care that was clearly put into the movie showed, and it made him sit up a little straighter, watching more fully.
WPNZ eventually looked down at Puzzles, wondering why the TV was being so quiet, when he was usually talking on and on about whatever movie or show they were watching. Puzzles was fully enamored by the TV, humming along to the movie with wide eyes. WPNZ chuckled and set his plate on the couch before sliding down to lay down more fully, tugging Puzzles up his chest so he could nuzzle his face into the top of his head, making the other let out a small giggle, frame shaking with laughter.
At the intermission Puzzles looked up at WPNZ, a wide smile on his face.
“So, do you like it so far?” He asked, a childlike demeanor lacing his words as he stared up at his fiancé.
“I mean, music’s great, don’t get me wrong, but I don’t think it’s really for me,” WPNZ said, waving his hand around to try and convey his emotions better.
“Ah, well, would you watch it again?”
“With you, definitely.”
Puzzles smiled somehow wider, and looked back down at the screen, just as the timer was hitting zero.
Puzzles was mainly happy that he finally got WPNZ to watch it with him, and also happy that he could cuddle with him whilst watching it! He let out a soft giggle, and he reached an arm up to wrap around the assassin’s neck, bringing his body a little farther up the gunman’s chest, and WPNZ placed a hand on his side, rubbing it gently.
Once it was done, Puzzles reached over and shut the TV off, soon snuggling back WPNZ. The gunman only chuckled down at him, as the showman had nuzzled his screen right into his upper chest, and it looked pretty cute.
Gently setting his hand on the top of Puzzles’ head, he started toying with his antennae, rubbing the smooth metal softly, making the taller let out a titter, but he didn’t pull away, letting WPNZ continue his movements.
WPNZ laid his head back on the armrest, staring up at the ceiling as he caressed one of Puzzles’ antennae. It was peaceful, and relaxing for the both of them, and sooner or later they both fell asleep, gentle purring and fans whirring filling the air.
