[windeity]

I know, but call this a special occasion. I wanted to make up for not doing this before. [But he's immediately moving in for the kiss and he lingers as long as he can.]

It was fun.

[parodeity]

Before when? [ WHAT ARE YOU EVEN MAKING UP FOR, JOHN. ] You do realize it's only been thirteen days?

[windeity]

All of the other times I resisted? Duh. [He knows it's only been almost two weeks, and yet.] It feels longer than thirteen days, dude. In a good way.

[parodeity]

Weirdo. [ to some part of that? ] It feels different, I guess.

[windeity]

It feels better. [He knows he's weird, fuck off.] It's the best parts of dating and having a best friend.

[parodeity]

Datin' your best friend doesn't guarantee that, you know.

[windeity]

I already knew I was lucky though. That's the best part of it. [He doesn't move and he doesn't let go, content to stare up at him instead.] It's also not a thing I plan on taking for granted.

[parodeity]

Dude. [ how sappy can john get ]

[windeity]

What? I'm serious! [He moves to press a kiss to Dave's nose solely to keep embarrassing him.]

[parodeity]

I’m not five, you know.

[windeity]

I know you aren't. [Face-nuzzle.] ...I think I'm ready to head back. Are you?

[parodeity]

Sure. Christmas Eve is over? [ or is he being dragged into other things, he means ]

[windeity]

No, but the rest of Christmas Eve is going to be spent in our room since everything else is there. Is that okay?

[parodeity]

Why wouldn't it be? Need help cleaning up first?

[windeity]

Mm-mm. I can come back and clean all of this up later. They don't need the room again for a while so I could leave it until after Christmas, unless you want to take some of the origami back for the room.

[parodeity]

All of it?

[windeity]

[...snort.] Okay in that case, yes, I maybe need a little help cleaning up. They should be easy to dismantle though and we can decide what to do with them from there once we get home.

[parodeity]

A'ight. Give me a few seconds. [ he's faster... ]

[windeity]

[Reluctantly he lets go.] Do your thing. I’ll grab the phone dock.

[parodeity]

Gotcha. [ it shouldn't take more than a few seconds, or minutes tops. SO. ]

[windeity]

[And there he goes to grab everything including the phone and the dock, leaving Dave to grab the origami. He trusts him to be careful and he's already thinking of where to put them, but he'll patiently wait near the door when he's finished.]

[parodeity]

[ dave is in fact careful but has everything in his dex quickly as he meets john at the door. ]

Home and apparently more stuff?

[windeity]

Yeah. Don't get too excited, what I have planned for home is a little more lowkey than ballroom dancing. [He holds out his arm to escort Dave again.]

[parodeity]

[ ...he likes the stupid escort stuff so he takes johns arm without complaint. ] Lowkey is always okay with me.

[windeity]

Cool. I think it'll be nice just to wind down after this anyway. [He has Dave on his arm and he closes the door as they exit, locking the room and they head for the car where he opens the door for him and everything. He's doing his best to be as gentlemanly as possible for some reason and with that he's driving them back to the dorm.]

Footloose next time for sure though, promise.
