Quinn had realized that Dream had woken up, but seeing as the Ninetails seemed adamant about not opening his eyes, the hybrid figured the other was just worn out and wanted to stay as close to sleep as he could, never once imagining that Dream thought he was imagining things.
There was a rumble the next morning at the kiss to his cheek, Quinn was a surprisingly light sleeper, and he let Dream go after playfully holding him back a brief moment to hug him. He'd get out of bed in a bit, for now this was comfortable.
It was the sound of the shower turning off that had Quinn getting up with a yawn and rummaging in his bag for a few things. A set of clean clothes for both of them were dropped onto the edge of the bed about the time he heard Dream ordering room service, and he lumbered over to the smaller teen and wrapped an arm around him from behind, pressing light kisses to a bare shoulder. "I'll brush your hair out for you once I use the bathroom." he pressed another kiss to Dream's skin before he went in and used the toilet and washed his face a bit. He'd shower in awhile. First, he wanted to tackle that hair, and those tails before they got all manky.

When Dream emerged from the bathroom, still chatting with the room service, he couldn't help grinning from ear to ear. Just seeing Quinn in person had put an actual bounce in his step, but to feel his arm around him...Dream was just lucky he'd hung up when the moan slipped out like it did. He lifted his arm to cup Quinn's head, running his nails over the others scalp while the kisses left little scorch marks on his skin.
"I'll hold you to that." Honestly, he was touched beyond words. To have someone else that concerned with his hair of all things was...amazing. After the drive, the fight, the distance, Quinn was still here. When Quinn moved away to use the restroom, Dream used the opportunity to play a little grab a** before slinking off to get dressed.
The clothes were worn in, and ones that he hadn't seen in ages. A plain-ish pair of form fitting jeans and a soft v-neck. All of which smelled like the man he'd yearned to be around. Dream picked up the front of his shirt while standing in the middle of the floor and smelled it with a smile, hair and tails drooped with water.

The moan that had come from Dream made Quinn want to skip his shower entirely, and coax more of those noises from the other. It'd been quite awhile since they'd seen one another after all! Still he knew room service was on the way and decided to play nice for the moment. "That's not the only thing I want you to hold to me just so you're aware." There was a grin on Quinn's face, looking more relaxed than he'd felt in a long time. Sure, it was easy to see this latest separation had been hard on him, but he looked more rested even after driving for hours, than he had sleeping at home all alone. It was amazing what the other being there could do for his well being! The grabbing of his a** brought a laugh to Quinn's lips and he playfully swatted Dream's hand away before he was stepping into the bathroom. Once he was done, he came back out a brush in hand, and a towel so he could siphon off any excess water as he brushed. "C'mere and sit your sexy a** down while I get to work on you." oh the ways that could be taken! But he meant with the brush...for the moment anyhow. There was plenty of time to see to other... needs.

Dream couldn't keep himself from laughing. It was so random and free that it couldn't have been anything other than natural. The first real laugh in a long time. The smile that followed was instantaneous.
He moved to sit on the floor, curling one leg underneath himself while fanning each tail out to it's proper place behind him. No sense in getting the bed wet before it's time! "So, did you mean what you said on the phone about staying?" Dream looked to Quinn, the water from his hair staining the shoulders of his shirt. There was a lot of hope in those eyes, and more than a little desperation.

It warmed Quinn to hear Dream laughing, the laughter than had happened on the phone or video chats hadn't been so free sounding, so....happy. No, this sounded like the Dream he knew and loved. As he dried up and pulled on shorts, he turned to Dream settled on the floor and gave a nod while toweling his hair dry. "Of course I meant it. I'm going to sell the office, store anything I don't need. I'll keep the house, it'll be a good for us to have a place when you get time off from work. We can get your sister to look after things there, and I'll go into the personal protection business. It and bounty hunting aren't mutually exclusive, and I have the gear. I'll just need to look more presentable, and not smell like a drunk." He was of course referring to the first time they met when he'd looked like a slob, and smelled like an alcoholic garbage can. It wouldn't be hard, he'd just get some tailored suits and all. He could pull off big and imposing, easily. "So long as my being around all the time isn't going to bug you, or put a crimp in your life now." he snagged the brush off the counter as well as a couple of towels and moved to sit behind Dream then, a towel used to start drying a tail a bit more before brushing. "But truthfully, there's no where else I'd rather be, than with you no matter where it'll take us. Life has had no meaning without you there.

Dream's gaze softened considerably. For all his vanity and bravado he really was on the edge. There were too many stress factors in his life for him not to be, and having Quinn by his side...It meant the world to him. "And make sure you don't chase me down the street into any more bike racks. I have enough bad press." He teased. Thinking back on those times brought a smile to his face. There had been so much awkwardness and rage, but now it was as fond of a memory as their trip to the beach for his sister's wedding. "I don't mind you smelling like a drunk from time to time, though. So long as it's in a bedroom, of course~"
Dream reached for Quinn's hand and squeezed it. "As if. I'm not saying you won't annoy me, or that I won't annoy you. I can't promise a perfect time, but I can say that I wouldn't ever wish for you to be anywhere other than here." He chose that moment to turn around, grabbing up his own brush and choosing a separate tail to work on. "I'm ready to give this living together thing a try. Who knows, maybe I'll get over your snoring." He grinned.

"Fortunately I haven't had to drench myself in alcohol for work since you." he chuckled softly as he said that. "No chasing you into a bike rack, got it." he was grinning now as he talked. That had been a one time thing as well. There was a soft laugh from Quinn as he squeezed that hand back. "It's normal to annoy others you live with, especially ones you love. I'm sure we'll work it out, though it'll take some work." He continued to brush the tails carefully, making sure to dry them as he went so they'd fluff up properly. Of course as he worked on brushing once in awhile his hand would trail and he'd brush fingers over the others back, and such. Gentle touches. "I'll sell the office, and invest in some new suits is the main thing I need to do, I think." which made life easy really.

"You mean I'll see to it that you have properly tailored suits that highlight your physique, as well as a decent hair cut that doesn't tell the world about your split ends." Dream stated pointedly. "You'll need a decent pair of shoes as well, maybe a few dozen, something with arch support, but class. Boots are a must have, but it isn't the season for them..."
He dropped one of the many tails that were being worked on into his lap, and leaned back onto Quinn. "And you'll have to teach me how to drive. I've had a car for months that's just sitting in a garage somewhere. Some red flashy thing." Waving his hand in the air, he carefully looked at his nails, wondering when they had gotten so tattered. That would need to be taken care of too.
"I refuse to own a leather couch, I will tell you that much up front. I prefer white, it suits my complexion." Smiling a little, he snuggled up to the larger man.

Quinn listened to Dream rattle off everything he'd need and couldn't help a low laugh of amusement. "Yes all of that... and if I'm in a suit, I imagine boots wouldn't look too bad depending the type. Nothing with laces. I don't want to have a lace untie on me in a critical moment. Something zip up. Or pull on. I'll leave that to your judgement. I imagine you'll choose better than me anyhow." His arms curled around Dream and he pressed his lips to the others neck, a content sigh from him. "I can teach you to drive yes...so you can drive your flashy red thing. That likely won't fit me easily." he laughed softly. "I'll even teach you to drive the beast...it'll handle differently than some pretty thing." "Okay so no leather couches...and white furniture. Thankfully the only leather I own is my recliner and I need a new one anyhow. I can be convinced not to get a leather one. Still not so sure about white. I'm not exactly the....daintiest of men. Though with a new job I shouldn't come home as filthy as I have in the past." he laughed softly then arms squeezing gently. "Gods I've missed you."

Dream nodded his head in agreement. "I detest laces, so you'll be good without them. You're not in the military so there is no need for them." He would have to look at designs to see if a zipper would be too tacky, or if the slip ons would fit over Quinn's calves or not. There were so many variables in fashion that it made his head spin.
He felt a shiver from Quinn's lips. Dream turned his head to peck Quinn on the cheek before cuddling closer into him. It was funny, how he had always assumed he would be the big spoon because of his size. Being the little spoon and feeling protected was a far better feeling, in his eyes. "You are kidding me," He laughed. "You're asking for dents in your new ride. Can't say I didn't warn you."
Furniture was comforting talking, but being around Quinn was like a drug. He never wanted this high to end. "I've miss you too, baby. I can't believe your really here. It feels like I'm in a dream and someones going to come in to pinch me awake."

"I trust you to help me look fashionable as well as intimidating." he grinned as he said that. Sure there was a hint of teasing to his words, but he did mean it. Still it felt good to joke around like this, to feel so lighthearted for the first time in...how long now? "Dents can be fixed up, and I think I'd feel better you learning to drive in the truck than some flashy little thing. It's bigger and sturdier so if something did happen, you would be better protected." he wasn't about to have Dream smushed inside a flattened tin can if there was an accident while he learned to drive. "Someone other than me pinches you, I'll bite them." he was laughing softly as his lips pressed to a shoulder, and he bit lightly, a n** more than anything. "I'm here, and I don't plan on being far away from you again for very long if I have my way." nope, he was miserable and useless without Dream around.

That was just like Quinn to think of him even when he was stressed. Dream had seen mar of a hard few months etched on his lover's face more than once, but no matter how much he tried to get the big lug to think of himself first it always came back to him. It was enough to make a guy feel week at the knees.
"If you keep that up we won't be leaving this room for a very long time." Dream threatened with a low laugh.

Painted Moose Hehehe that does scream Dream & Quinn! "Good. I don't think I want to leave the room any time soon. We have room service to bring us food after all. There's a different sort of hunger I want to take care of now." his words were low, and his arms tightened gently. "But first, we need to finish brushing out your tails so they don't get all matted." there was a low laugh from him as he said that, knowing it was completely opposite to him telling Dream he wanted to take him to bed and make up for lost time.

"You are such a tease."
Dream quirked the corner of his mouth in a sly smile. In truth, for probably the first time in his life, he didn't care about the welfare of his appearance. All he wanted was to attach himself like a barnacle onto the man beside him and never let go.
Still, he sat there like a good boyfriend and tenderly brushed out his fur, taking care even in his detached mental state. Dream was a model, after all, and looking good was supposed to be at the top of his list, but the reason he took care of himself was for another reason, as well. He never wanted that fire to die out of Quinn's eyes. It was selfish, he knew, but Dream had never been into letting those things pass him by.
Never before had he been so attached to another and he never wanted it to end. Dream leaned back against Quinn as he brushed, his love pouring out as a warming heat. If they ever had to separate he would lose his mind. Not like he hadn't already, as wrapped up in Quinn as he was.
And he wouldn't have had it any other way.
