Lingering Before Sunrise

Summary:

Two attempts to escape before it turns into a walk of shame, but he fails.

Notes:

FFC 26 prompt 12: lingering

Kodit/Kordit is called Kor and I decided I liked Two as a better spelling than Too or Thu I think I saw as well. Mainly it's about the visual of Bank and Kimmon that I can't get out of my head.

Un/official gift for Keeper.

Work Text:

It's not even light outside when Two slips out of bed, but he has to get to work and it's at least twenty minutes from here to his house. At least his mother won't think anything of him being out all night. Hopefully.

He picks through clothes on the floor, quietly piling those which are not his on the settee by the window. As he bunches fabric in his hands, he feels frantic energy building. Why can't he find his underwear?!

"Morning," comes a sleep muffled greeting from the direction of the bed.

So Two is standing there awkwardly, a bundle of clothes pressed to his middle, while Kor blinks at him.

"Where're you going?" Kor turns to the clock on his bedside, squinting at it. "Shit, it's not even six."

It's too close to six, Two wants to retort. "I have work…"

"Right, right." Kor is craning his neck, squinting a bit, his hair all mussed and fluffy. He's got too many pillows piled around him. He smiles. "Right, some people have real jobs."

"Um, right."

Two doesn't agree, but this isn't the time, especially since staring at Kor is bringing to the forefront certain memories and furthermore certain ideas that came about last night. He needs to leave before leaving becomes impossible.

He turns away and moves to the side of the bed Kor is on, staring desperately at the floor.

"I'm just looking for my underwear."

"These?"

Kor holds up a pair of briefs that look familiar and the problem is that Two is now looking at Kor again. He's mostly covered by blankets, but Two knows he's naked under there, last night he got a very good look at his legs and ass in fact, and is now thinking about waking him up properly, that sleepy smile and puffy eyed expression melted away in bliss.

"Didn't you say you had work…?" Kor asks with more confusion than amusement.

Chucking his clothes aside, Two says "Later" as Kor's smile breaks into a grin. His hands are warm as they catch Two, letting him straddle Kor. They shuffle the blankets out from between their bodies, bed warmth meeting unwilling morning cool. And Two remembers what it's like to kiss someone who wants you as madly, badly in return.

Thank you for reading!

If I am very fortunate, this is not the last ficlet I will post today, but we'll see.

I mentioned that a few days ago I overtaxed myself emotionally/mentally, and I know for a fact that today I am at risk of doing that again so I'm trying to take it easy. That said, in my room after breakfast I had the strongest urge to organize my books. But again, not gonna overtax myself.

I didn't have any ideas for this one until I looked at my list of dramas I have not yet written for. And I still was feeling bad that I left Kimmon out of the fic for day 3 (practically implied that I killed him actually 😅) so I guess it's only fair that Job gets pushed out of the spotlight in his show in return.

I just do not know how to convey to you that seeing Bank and Kimmon in City of Stars makes me a bit feral! I've been slowly watching it with Keeper (Kimmon Completionist Accomplishment Sought) and every time Kimmon is on screen I melt. Bank too. I'm curious to see what happens with them canonically, but there you are. No spoilers please!

It would be nice to write more Kimmon. I get a lot of practice thinking about him because of the RP (which is on temporary pause because of FFC, but also we haven't updated in a while because time and energy are limited). Anyway. Nice vibes. I hope you enjoyed this one!

Talk soon (I hope),
