"Would you like me to take your cup, Adrian?" asked Adrien as though it would be a privilege he was begging to have bestowed upon him.

He took it with two hands and scrambled off to the kitchenette, giving Divine a what?? look, cowed and terrified, in response to her briefest flicker of the eyes towards him.
It's not my fault what am I supposed to do? he implored silently before turning towards the sink, washing.
The cat in the cupboard meowed at him some more and then barged out, pregnant, rubbing against his legs and then heading off to sit on a cushion on the floor, glare at him, and clean herself.

Adrian regarded the cat with mild interest.
"She looks ready to pop."

Adrien giggled and smiled back at him in half-astonishment, biting his lip.
On his way back he abruptly went to snatch Adrian's hat from the coattrack and put it on jauntily. Then he went and slid easily into Adrian's lap and curled into his arms.

There was no sense in resisting at this point. Adrian smiled and looped his arms around the boy, holding him snugly.

Adrien opened one eye and gave Divine a smile before folding his own arms around Adrian's neck.

He pushed the brim of the hat up to allow himself to see Adrien's face a bit better.
"Tired already, are you?"

"Oh, no," said Adrien, sounding surprised. "I just feel comfortable." A little hesitantly, "don't you?"

He paused, but ended up smiling. "Oh good."
And - you could have predicted this easily - he leaned in to kiss him.

Some things were just not worth the energy one would expend arguing about it.
Adrian sighed a little, and then kissed him back.

He pushed himself up, hands on Adrian's shoulders, so that his head was tilted down for once, and slid closer.

Oh, lovely. He'd acquired a passenger.
"Are you certain you wouldn't rather simply lie down and go to sleep, at this point?"

Adrien just barely shook his head. "Mm-nnh."
