Alistair huffed. "When you say it like that," he grumbled, sinking onto the couch and kicking off his shoes. He was going to try and pretend to be disagreeable, but it was a difficult proposition.
Ava frowned. "I could've...alright," she said, picking up the tray too and walking into the kitchen, where she set all her things into the sink. "Thanks, Lance, you didn't have to help with that."

"You know I'm only doing it because I'm worried..." He said as he followed Ava into the kitchen and set the mug in the sink. "Aha... It's kinda second nature for me. I help out a lot at home so..." He shrugged one shoulder lazily. "It just kinda, carries over where ever I am."
Then he walked back into the living room and knelt in front of Alistair again. "Hey.. I'm sorry... I don't mean to be so demanding.. You know how I get." Lance could get pretty damn stubborn sometimes, and it got worse when his fretting mode kicked in. "...Wanna help me pull this out? Or did you just wanna stretch out on the couch as is?"

Alistair rolled his eyes. "I know, you're doing it because you care." And given everything, he couldn't exactly blame Lance for fretting. He turned his head and pressed his lips briefly to the blond's, before sliding off the couch. "I can get it pulled out, at least," he insisted.
Ava rinsed out the mugs and then sort of...left them in the sink, going back to the living room to help her guests with the fold out couch. "You just pull off the cushions," she said, "and then get your hands up underneath and I mean, a fold-out couch is a fold-out couch, yeah? I can go get some blankets, just a sec," and then she darted off again, this time to get bedroom, to dig out a spare blanket or three for the boys.

Together the two managed to pull and set the couch bed up, and Lance laughed lightly as he turned from stacking the cushion when Alistair flopped over on the bed with a tired sigh. Scooping the brunette up once more, Lance dragged them to the center of the bed before flopping over himself.

Alistair curled up against Lance, settling in his boyfriend's arms. This was already a thousand times enter than sleeping alone - he felt safe and warm and comfortable. "Love you,'" he murmured softly.
Ava came back out with blankets and pillows, and instead of saying anything and disturbing them, she simply deposited the things on the sofa bed. "Night, guys," she said, walking back into her room. She already felt better, having two tough fellow Dark Mirrors in the next room. Nothing was getting her tonight, that was for sure.

"Love you too." Lance said, one hand going to stroke Ali's hair as the other reached over and pulled pillows and blankets closer. "Good night Ava. Thank you again." Wrapping a blanket around Ali, he kept his voice low. "...I know I've asked a few times but... Are you alright? I mean really." He hugged Ali close, kissing his forehead. "I was so scared when you fell."

"I'm okay, really," Alistair said, reaching up to run his fingers through Lance's hair. "I'm sorry I scared you like that," he said, "I certainly didn't mean to." He tucked his head under Lance's chin, eyes closing. "That whole thing was...terrifying. Awful."

"It's over." Lance said, his hand moving to brush over Ali's throat gently. "And we're both okay now..." Pilling over a pillow for himself, he got comfortable. The blonde just pulled Ali closer, letting the smaller man rest against against him.

Alistair nodded. "We made it," he said, and one of his hands went to catch Lance's as it brushed his throat. "Really. I'm alright," he murmured, bringing Lance's hand to his lips and pressing them to each finger, one at a time.

"Alright... I'll stop touching it.." Lance just pressed a kiss to Alistair's head. "You should sleep Ali."

"Well, you did have to watch that thing try to kill me," Alistair murmured, "and I can't blame you for being worried." He kissed Lance's hand again, and then he released it, tucking himself tight against his boyfriend.

"I came back to it.. I got distracted with a stupid apple last time I checked..." Lance brushed some of Ali's hair out of the way before wrapping an arm around his boyfriend, making sure they were both covered. "Good night love... Sweet dreams alright?" He murmured, snuggling his face into the crook of Ali's neck.

"Still," Alistair murmured. Not once, but twice, Lance had seen that thing with its hands around his throat. The feeling was engraved in his mind - he was sure the sight was in Lance's. "You too, love," Ali said, lips pressing briefly to the top of Lance's head before he closed his eyes and drifted off.
