"Sure, if you'd like to," Dari said with a nod.
Toby added: "It's off-season. It'll be a little cold but there won't be many people there."
Dari liked the sound of that. Less people to spot him. Maybe he wouldn't have to get all made-up. "I'm just glad we're all back. Together."
Toby smiled to him. Yeah, they did make a good team didn't they?

Cold. Right. It was fall. She kept forgetting it was no longer summer. "We don't have to swim if it's too cold," She said. They could go stargazing together.
She gave Dari a smile. "This time, we'll stay together," she assured him. "Do you want to skip the movie and start on the stir fry?" she asked Toby.

Toby pulled Maia closer and kissed her shoulder.
"No. We can wait. Unless you're hungry?" He turned to catch her eye.

Maia snuggled into Toby's hold. "Waiting's good with me." she said. Toby didn't seem to want to move. "Dari there's a bag of marshmallows in the kitchen for you."

Dari didn't much respond, instead just getting up to go find said bag and returning with it in his lap. Marshmallows and a movie. Sure. He could get behind that.

Full of dinner and warm from being in Toby's arms, Maia started to nod off. She leaned against him yawning.

Toby could feel Maia tipping at the same time as her character began to list to the side. He chuckled softly and turned to her, kissing her forehead.
"Had enough?" He was a bit tired himself. It wasn't as if either of them had gotten any sort of good sleep last night, at least if his own destroyed sleep schedule was any comparison.
Dari turned to the couple and smiled. They were cute. He was glad it had worked out, and all at his fingertips. He felt clever.

"Hm?" Maia blinked at him. "Yeah." She sat up up, stretching. "Ready for bed?" She hadn't gotten much sleep, having been too excited to sleep.

Normally one might guide one's girlfriend out of the room to discuss private matters. Toby, on the other hand, was well used to Dari being able to hear him through walls and across streets, so he played with Maia's hair right there on the couch and smiled to her.
"Can I ask you something?"

"Yeah?" Maia smiled at him. "What is it?" She leaned against him again. Wasn't he tired? He couldn't have slept much better than she had.

"Do you want to maybe... share a room? Just tonight. See how it feels."
Dari, as ever, pretended he wasn't paying attention even though he could see the two of them through the side of his own head and hear them immediately beside him. It was just a front to make Toby more comfortable, and the werewolf was totally aware and appreciative. He did, however, smile slightly.
"Nothing sexual, I mean. Just share a bed." Like when she had been frightened, but this time without the fear.

"Okay," Maia agreed, kissing his cheek. She stood, stretching. She offered him her hand. "Ready?" She asked. Nothing sexual sounded good; maybe cuddling like during the thunder storms?

Really? It was that easy? Toby looked plainly surprised for a moment and then took Maia's hand.
"Are you okay?" he asked Dari," Do you want me to help you clean up?"
Dari was already navigating through screens out of the game, "No, no. Go ahead." He smiled up at Toby. "Really. I've got this." He didn't know what it felt like to hold another when you were in love, but it had to be pretty nice. He wanted it for them.
Toby offered an appreciative smile and tangled his fingers in Maia's as they headed upstairs, and he guided her toward his room.
"You're sure you're okay with this?"

"Hm?" Maia was surprised by Toby's question. "Yeah," she smiled at him. "We've done it before." The only thing different was that they were in a relationship. She gave his hand a squeeze.

Well, she was technically right, but there had always been other reasons. That and they hadn't been officially in a relationship at the time. He'd already set forth that there's be nothing sexual going on, though, so maybe that was it. Maia was just comfortable with him.
Toby began to pull off his shirt, looked to Maia, unsure if she'd be comfortable then, and then pulled it off the rest of the way. She'd seen his bum before. She'd be fine. He yawned and stretched and smiled.
"I didn't get much sleep last night."
