Time flies. Tempus fugit.
It certainly did whenever Alex was with Reid. Twenty-four hours in every day wasn't suffice for him. It was hard to think that he had been with Reid since the night before - it didn't feel like it. Reid's overtime had passed in the blink of an eye, and so had part of this morning.
Alex had invited Reid over this morning to grab some breakfast and just get ready for work in general. An excuse to see just a little more of him before they both left for work. The next time they'd probably see each other woule be at band practice this weekend. Alex wasn't sure what he was going to do about that yet. He'd get around to telling th other two... Eventually. They just needed some space to see if this worked out first.
"Okay. Coffee and waffles sound good?" Alex chuckled, closing his front door behind him. The first three things he did was fill Tootie's food bowl, refill her water bowl and pop the kettle on. Alex fished down two ceramic mugs down from the cupboard. When he placed them on the granite counter they made a small clatter - his hands were shaking. Alex was a bit nervous. He hadn't had Reid over yet while they were together. He couldn't help it.
"I hope its okay that I go get a wash in a minute." Alex smiled, wrapping his arms around Reid's neck. Out of the corner of his eye he saw his black cat perch herself on the windowledge, eyeing them closely. "Just don't let Tootie bully you now.

Reid looked around the living room. It was the same as the last time he had been here. For some reason though, it seemed different. It was probably due to them being a couple now. He wasn't sure why it was different or why he felt a little nervous about it all but he didn't like it.
He wrapped his arms around Alex. "Coffee and waffles sound fabulous. Why don't you go clean up while I finish the coffee. And I promise, I won't let that cat of your bug me this time. I don't know what it is, but he just doesn't like me." He kissed him briefly before pulling back. "You better go before I think better of it and decide to join you."

"You stole her spot once, Ree." Alexander chuckled, shrugging off his Healer robe and hooking on a coat peg. He swept back over to Reid for a quick kiss. "Tootie never forgets."
Alex glanced back over at the cat sat calmly on her spot in the sofa, the part which got the most sunlight for longest. Cats had an uncanny talent for finding the cosiest spots in the house. Alex nodded in agreement that Reid finishdped the coffee while hd jumped in the shower, blushing lightly on hearing his last comment.
"Well, I'm not stopping you." The spaniard said with a shrug and a wave of his hand before disappearing into the bathroom. "But you can't use my soap." It was a clean freak thing. No one got to use the same soap as him. They couldn't without fearing an ugly hex. Alex couldn't tell if Reid had been joking or not before... He had gone along with it in his own way - joking but...not so joking at the same time.
As he got ready for a shower, Alex shook his head. Reid wouldn't.

Reid looked at the cat after Alex had left the room. "Bloody cat. Seriously what was it with this cat." He was really tempted to go join Alex in the shower but the soap comment kind of put him off. The man didn't want to share his soap? Really? How was he suppose to get clean if he didn't use soap? Sometimes that man really didn't make much sense.
Instead he stayed in the kitchen making sure to stay away from the bloody cat. He finished making the coffee while he waited on Alex. He knew the man was a pretty boy so it was likely to take a bit. He poured himself a cup of coffee and waited til Alex came back...which was a while to say the least.

Alex stood there in the shower for a moment, his hand on the faucet at the ready to blast on the water. He was checking for any telltale noises that told him that he wasn't going to shower alone. With a shrug, he heard none. Alex couldn't help but feel a tiny bit disappointed - it looked like Reid had been joking around before.
A good while later, Alex emerged from the bathroom, shampooed, conditioned, groomed, clean shaven and smelling pretty.
"Silly, Ree." Alex smiled, poking him teasingly in his chest. "You ought to of joined me." He stood back for a moment, buttoning up his white, pressed shirt and tucking it into his work trousers.
"Gracias for the coffee. I'll get onto those waffles now." Alexander glanced at the clock mounted on the kitchen wall and nodded, they were doing fine for time.
"You hopping into the shower? I have some shower gel you can use." He murmured into the other man's ear, kissing his neck, nuzzling it and nipping it, while his fingers began to fumble with Reid's top button. "I'll...help you with this, should I?" Slowly but delibrately, he went button by button, undoing them and gently letting his cool fingers brush Reid's chest as he did. He came to a stop by his trousers and smirked into Reid's neck - he didn't want to get in the shower with him before? Alex wanted to make him wish he had.

Reid groaned. "Now he mentions the shower gel. Why couldn't he have mentioned that earlier." His head filled with all the things they could have been doing while 'taking a shower'. Oh they would have gotten clean...eventually, just not right away. They both wanted it, but they both were trying to wait a bit longer.
He stood there, with his arms around Alex, while his shirt was unbuttoned. "You know, if you had mentioned the shower gel before I would have joined you in the shower. But now, "he said letting his shirt fall to the floor, "now you get to cook breakfast knowing that I'm naked and wet just down the hall."
He pulled away from Alex, giving him a good look at Reid's upper body. He didn't work out much, but he still had abs and a good bit of muscle. He gave Alex a quick kiss and walked towards the bathroom. Just before he left the kitchen he turned to Alex. "You'll soon realize love that I can be a tease too." He left to take his shower, wondering if that was enough to get Alex back into the shower.

"You'll soon realize, love, that I can be a tease too." Alex didn't doubt Reid for a second. The young man could only bite his bottom lip when e gave Alex a small teaser of what he was going to miss out in the shower. It wasn't fair. Reid was too hot for his own good right now. Alex could only watch with longing as his friend sauntered out the kitchen. What did he do? Go after him? The temptation to do so was extreme.
Alex made a whimper noise and flopped forward onto the counter, covering his head with his arms. It wasn't fair. Alex was weak for these things. He stayed like that for a moment, having an inside arguement with himself. Part of him didn't want to yet, but the other part was....well, you can imagine, almost chafing at the bit.
Shrugging and sighing "fuck it", he bounded after Reid and paused at the door. Alex snaked his head around the frame with a deep crimson colour staining his cheeks.
"I could....maybe....have another?" God, Alex couldn't believe himself. Well, he could, but he liked to think that he was stronger than he was when it came to things such as these. He obviously wasn't. "Tat is.... if you don't mind."

Reid turned on the shower when he got to the bathroom, letting the water warm up while he got undressed. He slipped out of his shoes and socks, and just taken off his pants when Alex opened the door. He wasn't all that surprised the man decided to join him.
He walked over to Alex in nothing but his boxers. He pulled the Spaniard in and closed the door. "Why would I mind? I was hoping you would join me." He kissed him, unbuttoning his shirt as he did. He hesitated a bit as he went for Alex's trousers, before deciding to just go with it. He let them fall and stepped back. Gosh this man was beautiful. He finished undressing himself and walked to the shower. "Come on Jay, let's get me all nice and clean. Who knows, maybe we could have a little 'fun' doing it." He smirked at Alex. He knew this would be a very fun shower.

A silly little smile curved the corners of his lips on being dragged into the bathroom. At least he wasn't the only one that wanted this. Alex tried to help Reid undo his buttons, fumbling slightly due to the fact that his hands were shaking a teeny bit, kissing Reid fervently all the while. His eyes sprung open for just a moment when Reid went for his trousers, his face deepening in colour. He wasn't embarrassed about the prospect of being unclothed in front of him, hell, all the band was bound to of seen Alex naked at least once, his clothes had a tendency of becoming none existent when he had had too much to drink. He put it down to the fact that it was Reid. Reid, his best friend for the past....how many years?
"Just a little fun.... we both have work." Alex giggled quietly, slipping into the shower, pulling the curtain across behind him. "I didn't last very long dressed, did I?" The Spaniard gave Reid the once over with his gaze, quickly looking up and covering his face with his hands. Okay, he was maybe a embarrassed, nervous too.
But those feelings quickly dissolved away with the warm water drenching his skin when he wrapped his arms around Reid. Alex's breathing quickened a notch - he coudn't explain how good it felt to have his chest pressed against Reid's.
"Ree..." Alex began, leaning his face into his neck, nipping gently. "...remember that you do have to shower, too."

Reid smiled as he looked at Alex. This man was beautiful, there was no doubt about it. "And he's all mine. Gah...must remember that I can't get carried away." He almost moaned when Alex attacked his neck. "Damn this man!! He could make me lose it just doing this."
He tried to pushed Alex away but he couldn't find it in him, he was enjoying it too much. "J-Jay, we s-shouldn't stay in here long." He really didn't care. As long as he got a shower in the end.
After what was a very interesting shower, Reid and Alex walked back into the kitchen in hopes to make a quick breakfast. He really hoped that there was still time for food. "Jayyyyyy" he whined "Do we have enough time to eat? I'm even hungrier now than before my shower." He smirked at Alex. It was all his fault for that too.

Looking slightly flushed in the face, Alex dug out his wand from his Healer's robe and bounded over to the kitchen. He glanced up at the clock on the wall - if he hurried they'd be able to eat calmly.
"Yeah...I'll just be a ,moment." Alex's voice was airy, much more relaxed, after that shower. "And I bet you are. I am too, a bit." Alex flicked his wand and set about multitasking. He never liked using magic for cooking and he didn't like using premade batter for waffles and pancakes. But, given the rush, he chose magic to save time. He prodded the two cups of coffee with his wand to reheat them before quickly directing his attention to the mixture that was prepared in almost a minute.
"And...you should just shower here...if they're going to be like that one." Alex said with a shy smile, glancing over his shoulder at Reid. He suddenly frowned and pointed at his neck. When Alex had told Brent on the tower that he liked to bite, he hadn't been joking. "But you should get rid of that mark. I have some paste for that in the bathroom cabinet. Go do that while the waffles cook."

Reid quite liked the idea of showering with Alex. It wasn't just the 'fun' they had in the shower either. He really liked spending time with Alex, the mornings were no different. "Hmm...maybe. I wouldn't mind spending my mornings with you." He smiled over at Alex.
He brought his fingers up to the hickey Alex had left on him. While he knew he should get rid of it, but he kind of liked it there. "You know what, I think I'll leave it. My robes should cover it and if they don't, well everyone at work will just know that I belong to someone."

The idea of seeing Reid in the mornings like this appealed to Alex greatly. He smiled at his friend from the waffle maker in the corner for a moment. Everything was going better than Alex could of ever imagined. He was here in his kitchen making breakfast for the man he loved. Loved. Alex felt his cheeks burn hot pink. Why on earth had he waited so long to have something like this?
On hearing that Reid planned to keep the lovebite, Alex shook his head slowly while he pushed a couple of waffles his way.
"Ree..." He snickered, passing him syrup, jam and other such toppings. "If you're sure...its just cause, I don't know, it just doesn't look too, uh, professional." Secretly, he liked the fact that Reid wanted to keep the territorial mark. Reid was Alex's. The young man began to giggle to himself, running a hand through his damp hair. Maybe he was still asleep on the sofa or something. This felt too good. He didn't deserve anything like this with someone.
"If you're doing overtime again...I'm not going to be able to slip by again. I have a couple of late shifts in until the weekend." Alex gave a small frown while he spread honey on his waffle, sipping some coffee before taking the first bite. "Filling in for some witch. But then I'll be getting a few extra days off at some point. So its all good." Alex spoke covering his mouth with his hand, chewing waffle in his cheek.
"See that we've got band practice this weekend? We going out the same night or the day after?"

He frowned a little when Alex tried to have him get rid of it. Sure it wasn't exactly professional but he thought Alex would like that he wanted to keep it. He took his waffles and the toppings before he said anything. "Well if you want me to get rid of it..." He let the sentence go, subtly telling Alex that it was his decision to make. Reid personally didn't care whether others saw it or not. He knew it was there and that's all that mattered to him.
He frowned even more when he heard that Alex had to work extra shifts. That meant they really wouldn't see each other til band practice. That sucked, majorly.
He thought about their date. He knew that there was no way to know how long band practice would be. Trying to have a date on top of that might not be the best idea. "How about we go out the day after. I was thinking dinner and a movie. How does that sound?"

Alex could tell that Reid wanted to keep the bruise-like blemish. And who was he to tell him what to do with his body? Besides, Alex didn't mind if he kept it. He liked the idea of Reid being marked by him in a way. Alex had only had Reid's best intentions in mind.
"Keep it if it makes you happy." Alex leaned over and gave it a small kiss, leaving a small part of his skin sticky with the honey from Alex's top lip. "I'll remember for next time not to leave them in visible places..." The young man gave a casual wink and went back to his waffle, finishing it in a few bites. Normally he'd only have the one but this morning he had worked up quite the appetite, plus, the last thing he had eaten was what had been leftover from making Reid pasta yesterday evening.
"Dinner and movie?" Alex repeated in a faint whisper, looking up from his cup of coffee. "That sounds...perfect." And he couldn't mean it more than he did. A whole evening, just Reid and him, doing stuff that couples did together...his stomach gave an excited flip. He couldn't wait. This was going to be the best weekend ever. Band practice and then a date with Reid.
"These last few days are going to go so slow..." Alex mumbled into his cup, stabbing his second waffle with a fork. "Even if I were to see you everyday...it wouldn't be enough."
