He's perfectly happy to keep ignoring it forever, and just keep making small sounds and tilting his head so Lev's hand is where he wants it. 

Permalink

Sasha making small sounds is literally the best thing that has ever happened to him

Lev wants to kiss him, and wants to say "I love you", and wants to get down on his knees and pull off Sasha's pants and make him come, and wants to beg him to never never leave, but he does exactly none of these things. Instead he says, "do you want to watch a movie?"

"Movie sounds great," he says, without taking his head off of Lev's shoulder.

Can they walk with Sasha's head on his shoulder. Probably not, but Lev is willing to try.

Permalink

Well, if Lev keeps petting his hair they're not going to get much of anywhere.

With a tremendous feat of willpower, Lev takes his hand off Sasha's hair. "Wait, did you get dinner?"

Permalink

"I did not." 

Permalink

"We should get dinner and watch a movie! --Uh, I mean, if you want to, I shouldn't assume that you want to, sorry."

Permalink

He smiles into Lev's shoulder. "I would love to get dinner and watch a movie with you." 

Permalink

This requires extricating himself from Sasha enough to use his phone. 

"What do you want?"

Permalink

"I'm not picky, whatever's good and nearby." 

Permalink

"...I have a cook. You can in fact have anything you want, although if it involves buying groceries you might have to wait a bit."

Permalink

"Seriously, I am not picky, whatever's easy.

...although I have had enough scrambled eggs to last several lifetimes so maybe not that." 

Permalink

"It's your first day here, I thought... it would be nice? If you could have whatever you want?" His voice is really uncertain.

Permalink

"You're sweet, but I genuinely don't have preferences about food."

Maybe if he comes up with a preference then Lev will be satisfied he's telling the truth? "Uh, unless you put hazelnuts in everything, one guy did that and it wasn't torture or anything but I'd rather not." 

Permalink

"I won't put hazelnuts in everything! --Are grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup okay?" He's texting Edith, the cook.

Permalink

Oh good, normal food that normal people eat. "That sounds wonderful." 

Permalink

Lev finishes texting Edith. "She'll bring us the food when it's ready." He starts walking out of the library, pauses, doubles back, and holds Sasha's hand.

Permalink

He's really, really cute. Sasha laces their fingers together. 

Permalink

He makes a little happy whimper.

Permalink

...depressing, but also cute. 

Sasha doesn't know his way around this house yet but he will follow Lev to the movie theater that he apparently has. 

Permalink

It turns out, if you are stupidly wealthy and really like movies, you can actually just have a movie theater screen in your house. And a popcorn machine! And movie theater snacks! And a giant, incredibly soft couch to flop on while you're watching your movie theater screen!

"What do you want to watch?"

Permalink

"My favorite is Pan's Labyrinth, but Ocean's Eleven and Howl's Moving Castle also good if you don't want to watch weird historical fantasy in Spanish with subtitles." 

Permalink

"I would want to watch weird historical fantasy in Spanish with subtitles even if it weren't your favorite."

He has to go over there to set up the movie! Which is good, because if he sat down, then Sasha might sit down next to him, and that is terrifying.

Permalink

He picks a spot and sits in it. If Lev doesn't sit next to him, he'll move so they're next to each other anyway.
