[Milliways]: Reunion

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus had dutifully eaten, if not as much as Steve wanted him to, at least enough to be able to say he was taking care of himself.

And after...well, upstairs had seemed like a good idea. Especially good considering this was the first time it was Orpheus who hadn't seen Steve in over a month rather than the other way around. He tugs Steve into the room with a smile, not willing to let go of him even for a second.

Orpheus laughs softly. "Of course. When I'm with someone seriously...that's it for me."



[ooc: Off to choir.]

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve kisses him again, still smiling. "We really are serious."


[ooc: Kaykay.

[golden_lyre]

"Yeah, I guess we are," Orpheus says thoughtfully.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve touches Orpheus's chest. "This has been a hell of a day," he says softly.

[golden_lyre]

"It has," Orpheus murmurs. "How are you doing?"

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"Not knocked off my foundations," Steve says. "Kind of the opposite."

[golden_lyre]

"I'm glad," Orpheus says quietly, leaning in to kiss him softly.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"Will you say you're mine?" Steve whispers into the kiss. "Just say, 'Steve, I'm yours'?"

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus hesitates a moment. This is where things get complicated for him.

"I can say that I give you everything that is mine to give," he says quietly. "Is that enough?"

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve's smile fades a little, but he whispers, "I'll take that," and kisses Orpheus tenderly.

[golden_lyre]

Part of him will always belong to Eurydice, as far as he's concerned, but he will give what he can.

He cups a hand around Steve's cheek as he returns the kiss.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve nuzzles his cheek against Orpheus's hand.

"I'm yours," he says, though the question wasn't asked.

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus smiles at that and kisses Steve's forehead, almost like a blessing.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve closes his eyes as Orpheus kisses him.

[golden_lyre]

He kisses between Steve's eyebrows next and the bridge of his nose.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve gives a soft chuckle.

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus kisses the tip of his nose then, smiling.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve's still smiling, and he settles against Orpheus, loving the attention.

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus brushes his lips along Steve's cheekbone and his eyelids.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve purrs. His fingers trace little circles on Orpheus's back.

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus kisses along his jawline next, and the tip of his ear.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"Hmm," Steve murmurs.

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus' lips linger by Steve's ear and he hums a simple tune of pure affection.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve purrs again, his feet stroking Orpheus's calves, his sounds even warmer and happier.

[golden_lyre]

Orpheus presses a kiss behind Steve's ear and moves to settle at Steve's side.
