Sorin had to chuckle when Bayani lamented their lack of sex as humans. "You hated me back then. Or at least very much disliked me." He leaned in close to say the rest in a lower voice. "But... I would have really made you feel it to get that mean scowl off your face." Sorin nipped at Bayani's ear.
Sorin had tried and failed many times to make peace with Bayani in the castle. The boy was too hot tempered and it got him in a lot of trouble with the staff. Sorin, despite how Bayani had spoken out against him and their plan to get out, was terrified that the doctors would kill him before they could escape. Sorin had seen many patients in the asylum act out and never come back to the general population.
But now they were here. They were safe. And they were in bed together. Sorin could now be a little more lighthearted about their relationship before the break out.
Unlike Bayani, Sorin was a tactile person. He liked to touch people and freely gave affection. He wasn't reserved in the ways that Bayani was. He believed in making others feel better. Having known Bayani before, before all these changes, he knew that it was a significant thing when the boy voluntarily offered affection without bring prompted. Sorin listened to Bayani's words, his brows drawn together with worry and hurt, that there was something about himself that was wrong, and he leaned into Bayani's arms to accept the comfort.
Sorin knew he had a problem with being a people pleaser. Bayani had pointed it out to him before, so had Sidro, but try as he might, he couldn't stop wanting to put other people's needs before his own. The fact that Bayani was right, that he was hurting others for not feeling the same way for them as they did for him, caused the summoner to sigh and close his eyes. "If it's not my fault, why do I feel so terrible about it?"
Leaning into Bayani, feeling a rush of love and affection for the vampire for his words, that he was enough for him, Sorin's worry began to fade some. He even laughed a little, nudging Bayani in the ribs playfully. "But you are so good at the pep. I am thinking you should look into a career as a motivational speaker." Sorin grinned and turned his head to kiss Bayani's cheek, then his lips. He let his hands release the sheets and glide along Bayani's thighs.
