Chapter Text
“Thank god that cold snap is over”, Charlie entered the bedroom dressed in his usual nightclothes of shorts and a T-shirt for the first time in a while.
Nick smiled at him from the bed.
Charlie got in and leaned over, kissing Nick’s neck gently. His hands roaming Nick’s body. With the recent cold weather Charlie hadn’t wanted to have sex. But now he most definitely did.
“Sorry Char, not in the mood tonight”, Nick backed away.
“Oh. Ok”, Charlie sat up and reached for his book. Consent and communication was a huge part of their relationship. Sometimes they would try and convince the other if there was a hint of hesitation. But the seriousness of Nick’s tone told Charlie he meant it. Charlie was disappointed but there would be other nights.
Nick laughed.
“I’m kidding! Come here you!”
He made grabby hands at Charlie.
“Menace!”, Charlie said as he moved to straddle Nick.
“No, that’s you! I’m cute!”, Nick fluttered his eyelashes as he started removing Charlie’s T-shirt.
“If you say so!”, Charlie rolled his eyes.
“Shut up and kiss me Spring!”
Charlie did.
