"Heeey, you've reached Yang! Well, actually, you didn't reach far enough, 'cause I'm not here right now! But don't yang up! Just leave a message on this baby, and I'll get back to you soon enough, okay?"

[Naoki smiles, touching the backs of his fingers against her cheek.]

Yeah, do. [She deserves that, after all she's done for him, gosh.]

[flaredo]

I will, I will! I'll brag about it, too.

[ Don't think she won't. ]

[masakados]

I never doubted that.

[Amused, he flicks his fingers against her bangs, smiling as he takes her in. He's thinking again how glad he is to be back with her and then something else comes creeping in from the corners of his mind--]

...Ah, Yang? [...] Your sister. We should probably check on Ruby.

[flaredo]

[ GRABBING HER DEVICE, which is conveniently within reaching distance to-- text her sister, yes. ]

Gimme a sec--

[masakados]

[...She could've gotten up and gone to the next room to check on her. Texting in the house...

Naoki wraps his arms tight around her and cranes his neck to try and see what she's texting.]

[flaredo]

[ enjoy reading it, Naoki. Yang's managing to snuggle closer and keep up a conversation, isn't this impressive-- ]

[masakados]

[PURSING HIS LIPS.]

That makes it sound like I've got you trapped. [And, kissing the top of her head:] I can let you go so you can check on her.

[flaredo]

If she's joking with me, she's okay. And if I check on her now, I won't be back in here with you for awhile.

[ She appreciates the consideration, though, moving one hand to clasp his. ]

[masakados]

Oh.

[Naoki grips back at her hand, squeezing gently. Yup, just the "oh", but if Yang says it's fine, he'll be content.]

[flaredo]

... You're sleeping with me tonight though, right?

[ She might demand it this time. ]

[masakados]

[He's giving her a look.]

There's no way that I wouldn't be.

[flaredo]

Just checking! That'll make it easier to ditch you if I have you to come back to.

[ She says... so lovingly. ]

[masakados]

I'm so glad. Always good to know when you can ditch me without worrying.

[He says incredibly dryly...]

[flaredo]

Well, someone's gotta keep the bed warm for me.

[ But she's just going to kiss him, because of course he knows she's far from serious. ]

[masakados]

[Naoki murmurs her name, eyes closing as he leans into her, returning the kiss.]

Bed warmer, at your service.

[flaredo]

You're the best boyfriend ever.

[ Mumbled into his lips, yes. ]

[masakados]

I try.

[Ah, he's full of warm fuzzies just hearing that.]

[flaredo]

... I should check on my sister, though. I'll be back, okay?

[ For tons of snuggles. ]

[masakados]

Mmhm. [He shifts a hand to slide under her chin, to kiss her once again, lightly.] Take your time-- I'm gonna make sure those robots are gone.

[And make some not-robot made breakfast. But after that it's back to warming the bed!]
