“Again?” Beniro whines out as his arms were wrapped around Akita’s waist. Lloyd was sitting on the couch as Akita had invited him over, once again.
“Yes, Beniro. My people need me.” Akita notes, Beniro know she puts her people as her number one priority but it’s been getting ridiculous lately. “I promise I will return soon, for now hang out with Lloyd.” Akita says as she points to the blonde.
Beniro lets her go and waves her a goodbye which Akita returns and closes the door.
The pair was now once again alone in the cabin.
They know the thoughts of the other, the last times they “hung out” they’d basically ate each other’s face. If they wanted to do it again there would be no foreplay between the two.
But, Lloyd seemed to be shivering which is weird. Beniro has the fire going as he’s making lunch for the three of them and there isn’t a storm coming through,so why?
Beniro’s eyes landed towards Lloyd’s gi. It was definitely not made for the cold weather of the never lands. The top layer was definitely heavy enough to keep them warm but it was a short sleeve. The bottom layer was way too thin to keep anyone warm.
His eyes travel down to the hybrid’s thighs, he had on shorts and leg warmers that turns into leg wraps as it went farther down. His warajis weren’t giving him any warmth that’s for sure.
Beniro sits next to Lloyd on the couch. Lloyd immediately shifts away from the formling. Beniro, on the other hand, can feel the coldness of Lloyd’s tail on his leg. He takes off his orange coat, forcing it onto the hybrid’s shoulders.
Lloyd looks over at him, blush airbrushed on his pale cheeks. “What are you doing?” Lloyd tries to sound intimidating but it was more so akin to a small kitten hissing.
Beniro pulls the coat closer to Lloyd’s torso, trying to make it engulf the cold dragoni. “You’re colder than a wet cat in this weather. You could get sick.”
Lloyd’s tail wags under them which Lloyd is quick to step on it. “I don’t get sick.” Lloyd scoffs and turns his head away from Beniro as they hold the coat closer to themselves.
Beniro walks away to the small fire in the cabin that had some food over it. Beniro grabs another container, a pot to be exact. Lloyd looks over to him as he puts the pot on the cooking rack.
What was in it? Lloyd didn’t know, and he for sure isn’t going to ask.
“It’s an Italian penicillin, should help with your cold that you’re no doubt going to get.” Beniro says as his gaze shifts to Lloyd.
Lloyd was going to say that they don’t sick until, a sneeze racked their body. Some snot came out which Beniro was quick to grab a tissue and wipe their face clean.
Lloyd’s legs suddenly shot up to his chest, trying to huddle up for what little warmth his body provided.
Beniro goes to a corner with a small, long box and picks something from it. He goes back to Lloyd and wraps a thick blanket around Lloyd’s shaking form.
Beniro sits next to Lloyd and place a peck on their cheek.
Lloyd’s face heats up and hides their face in the blanket Beniro gave him.
Beniro laughs at Lloyd’s reaction, he is swiftly hit by Lloyd’s tail. Beniro grabs it and moves it into the blanket.
Lloyd lays on the armrest which Beniro lays on them and gives them another peck on the cheek.
Lloyd shakes him away and gets into a sneezing fit. Beniro gets another tissue for them when they’re done.
Lloyd sneezes a few more times before it goes to a stop.
“Bless you Mx “I don’t get sick”!” Beniro chortles at Lloyd’s pouty face.
After Beniro cleans them up again Lloyd fully hides their face, only leaving their horns and the top of their head to be seen.
Beniro stands up and bends over Lloyd, he places a few kisses over Lloyd’s head, most of them being by Lloyd’s horns.
The hybrid shakes their head and pop their head fully out.
“There you are, thought I lost ya again!” Beniro expresses. Lloyd blows a thing of hot air at the formling.
“My horns are cold, the blanket is going nothing!” Lloyd spits at Beniro.
“I actually have something for that, hold on!” Beniro notes and leaves to another room, quickly coming back with a hat. His fox hat.
Lloyd groans when Beniro puts it on their head. Yes it was indeed warm and they weren’t destroying it thanks to it being made with Beniro’s ears in mind, but still it’s Beniro’s the stupid fox Akita was going to marry. Lloyd huffs out a small ‘thank you’ under his breath.
Beniro places a hand over his ear. “What’s that Lloyd, I can’t hear you.” Beniro teases the cold hybrid.
“THANK YOU!!” Lloyd yells at Beniro. They hide their face once again. Beniro is sort of stunned at the that.
He looks over at the food and remembers he has to be actively by it.
After making sure the food wasn’t burnt he goes back to Lloyd, picking them up and bringing them to the fire.
Beniro softly drops Lloyd on the ground before getting back up to retrieve some dishes.
Benrio moves the cooking rack to the side as to not burn himself and so he can keep the fire going for Lloyd. He picks up the food with a tong and plates them. He uses a ladle to get some of the soup out for Lloyd. The food is placed infront of Lloyd which they immediately digs into.
Beniro is happy to see Lloyd eating. They were surprisingly easy to pick up, Beniro had held sacks of ice heavier than them. He pushes the thoughts away and digs into his own food.
———
Lloyd is the first to finish. He lays back, being supported by his hands. They don’t notice when Beniro finishes and takes his dishes.
Beniro comes back to Lloyd to sit next to them. They haven’t argued for about a few minutes now which was a record.
Lloyd’s tail makes contact with Beniro’s. They intertwine them together, both contend to just sitting there enjoying the warmth the fire provides.
Lloyd lays on Beniro’s shoulder which Beniro responds to putting his hand on Lloyd’s hip.
They both know once Lloyd gets over his sickness they will go back to arguing. But the pair just sits there, enjoying the other’s company.
