"I could now if I could be bothered to get up," he said, considering it before shaking his head and relaxing. "However, I can't be bothered to, a bath or a shower will do later. Maybe a shower, baths don't really make people clean."
Adrian frowned when he realised Stephen had gotten him exactly where he wanted and he sighed before nodding. "All right but you better go back to sleep. I only don't want to because you have a problem going back to sleep," he answered. "And I don't care if you lived on no sleep; I like having you not-sleepy with no unattractive dark circles or bags under your eyes."
He sighed. "Baby, I never left. I went away for a couple of hours to cool off and then it turned into the next day and you hadn't sent me an owl or turned up so I did something stupid and sent an owl to Rodolphus," He snorted. "Hardly my wisest idea. But I was always coming back; loved you too much, still do."
