Hey darlings, [Noctis chuckles, taking off his shoes and then picking up Valentino. And yes, he said it in plural. That was for you too, Ezio. The black kitten, of course, is the first to get his attention though. Because it's been two hundred years since he got the pets.

With a smile, he walks over to Ezio, scratching Valentino behind the ear and pressing a smirking kiss on his boyfriend's lips.]

Only him?

[Valentino has a very difficult life. Very neglected. Totally unloved. Forced to eat the very best kitten food the city had to offer and spends every night asleep on Ezio's pillow. And he only gets pets for four hours every day.

Please help him.]

Not only him. [Denying that he missed Noctis would be a lie, and out of everyone, he was one of the only people Ezio was completely honest with.]

[The totally unloved kitten gets another nuzzle from Noctis before he puts him down on the floor. Because his boyfriend probably won't be satisfied with just a simple peck on the lips.

Noctis grins, wrapping his hands around Ezio's neck and leaning fully against him.]

Missed you too, mentore.

[That poor kitten, in all his neglect, scampers off to play with the quickly growing mountain of toys that have been purchased just for him.

Ezio's own hands fall onto Noct's hips, fingers flexing softly once, twice, as the space between them closes and that title is uttered and it makes his own lips curl upwards into a smirk.]

What would my student like to learn today?

[Noctis' fingers play with Ezio's hair, while he pretends to think what he would want.]

I want to learn whether that tub can actually hold both of us.

[He requested it and he's not backing out from it whether they can or cannot fit. But if he saw correctly, then it's big enough.]

I'm really curious.

Then allow me to satisfy you.

[His hold falls away from Noctis, catching one of his hands within his own at the last moment, fingers interlocking perfectly, as though they had been created solely for this purpose. Body twisting, he leads them to the stairs and up, past the bed they so often share and into the already prepared bathroom.

Candles flicker, casting a soft glow around the room, heat from the scented water rising into the air invitingly.]

[Noctis grins as Ezio leads them up the stairs and into the bathroom. However, the scene that awaits him is not something he expected to see. With a soft hum, he lets go of Ezio's hand and shrugs off his jacket, letting it fall to the floor, as he approaches the bathtub.]

My boyfriend is such a romantic...

[He looks over his shoulder and smirks, pulling the shirt over his head and tossing it away.]

[For a long moment all he does is watch, brown eyes slowly darkening with each piece of clothing that falls away. No matter times those inches and inches of beautiful pale skin were revealed to him, he was always completely entranced by it, unable and unwilling to look away.]

Your boyfriend loves you.

[That word spilled forth so easily now, falling from his lips as his fingers began to work upon the buttons of his shirt, shrugging it off and letting it land where it may.]

[He's doing all of this slowly, and on purpose, because he knows that Ezio is watching him intently. And it makes tingles go all over his skin and down his back.

Still not facing him, he starts working on his pants, with a small chuckle.]

Loves me? Mmmm... [he kicks off the pants to the side and turns around to walk up to him.] And Ezio's loved back. With all of his boyfriend's heart.

[Thumbs hooked into the waistband of his pants, tugging them down slowly before letting them fall into the pile along with his shirt, leaving him completely bare.

It's instant, the way he reaches out for Noctis, the way his arms wrap around him, drawing him in. The way his heart skips a beat as skin presses against skin. The way everything within him positively lights up, sings in delighted pleasure and makes him never want to let go.]

Ti amo con tutto il mio cuore, bello.

[Noctis visibly shudders the moment their skin touches, and he doesn't even bother to hide how much he loves the contact. How much he soaks up the warmth of Ezio's skin, of how much his body gets riled up in pleasure every time the fingers cross over his hips, his waist, his back.

Ezio speaking to him in Italian is probably the most wonderful thing ever, but it's the 'bello' that always gets to him. It always draws out a shy, yet happy smile from him.]

Kiss me...

[There was nothing in the world that could compare to the beauty contained within Noctis' smile. And he found himself becoming lost in it, falling down deep into the light that shone through. Felt his chest tighten as the love contained within his heart grew exponentially, until it felt as though he would surely drown in it.

It's a soft command, issues in the he's of the moment and he answers in kind, both hands lifting to cup each side of Noctis' jaw, finger tips gentle as he dips forward. As lips press against lips and something sparks between them that has a shower running down the length of his spine.]

[He's always so gentle with him. Even when things are fast and rough and needy, Ezio's always so gentle to him. Taking perfect care that Noctis is feeling only happiness and pleasure in everything they do.

And now too. The kiss is so soft and it sends a wave of warmth through his body. And every time he kisses him, it always feels like it's the first time. Like he's never done it before. He sighs happily, hands tightening around Ezio's neck- getting his body completely pressed up against the other.]

[Always. Because this play, this back and forth between them only worked if they both enjoyed it. If they both felt the care and appreciation that flowed between them for what they were able to share.

That kiss slowly turns deep, vast like the sea, and Ezio's lips part, tongue snaking out to tease the seam formed by Noctis' own. A distraction for the way his hands slip down, settle onto hips and begin to move them backwards. Step by step, across the open expanse towards the welcoming steam billowing from the tub.]

[The wonderful distraction works because Noctis doesn't even notice they have come close to the tub. He's too preoccupied with the wonderful lips on his own to care about it. But once the back of his legs hit the tub, he breaks the kiss with a soft groan and a grumble.]

Mmm... you first. [He smirks-] I want to sit in your lap.

[How is he supposed to pass up an opportunity like that? To have Noctis in his lap, surrounded by glorious, soothing hot water.]

As you wish, your majesty.

[But he takes his time in releasing his hold, fingers slowly slipping from hips, trailing low over Noctis' stomach, barely brushing against blossoming hardness before finally falling away. Steps around him with the same tactic, taking his time to lift a leg and slide it into the water, to let out a soft moan at the heat of it.

Even when he begins to lower himself down it's with the same speed, still maddeningly slow, soft sounds coming from parted lips as teeth dig into the bottom, eyes opening a mere fraction to glance over Noctis.]

[That title calling again. Noctis just rolls his eyes with a huff. The mood would be completely botched if Ezio isn't taking very slow steps to immerse himself in the nice, warm bath.

Gods, he loves watching him move like this. He's not even aware that he was biting in his own lower lip until Ezio looks at him. Right- he should join him, not just watch.

With a light flush, he steps in the tub himself (not as graceful as Ezio though), and lowers himself right between Ezio's legs, back pressed against the chest. It's amazing and, by everything that is holy, he'd remain like this for days.]

[Hands instantly lift to brace against hips, holding steady until Noctis slips against him, back pressed against chest and they fall away. Arms wrap around shoulders, smiling as he nuzzles into the warmth of his neck, lips pressing against a pulse point as he speaks.]

Is my student satisfied?

[Noctis shivers when he feels lips descend on his skin and sighs, eyes closing. This feeling is beyond perfect. He'd stay like this forever, given a chance.]

Yes... thank you, Mentore.

[He tilts his head slightly so that angle is just enough to press a short kiss on Ezio's lips.]

[Muscles begin to slowly relax, heated water seeming to seep into his very bones and soothe away the aches that had settled so deep. Even the weight of Noctis leaning against felt like nothing, bodies weightless in the surrounding water.]

What should I teach you next?

[Spoken low, lips moving against lips, before catching Noct's bottom between his teeth and tugging softly.]

[Noctis lets himself get lost in that kiss, warmer than the water they are sitting in. It easily makes him moan softly, almost happily and there's a content sigh when Ezio pulls back.

His head falls back against the shoulder, and Noctis looks up at him through half-lidded eyes.]

...teach me how to stop falling for you over and over again.

[Why did Noctis have to say things that tore into his heart and made it bleed from the pain of it? That mended another wound that had been made so long ago, sealing it shut and leaving it whole?

Ezio had fallen deep, fallen fast and easily, like a leaf falling from the trees in the fall. He had always either loved intensely or not at all.

But there was something about the way that he loved Noctis that was different. That made even those words which were meant to be tender inspire pain. Because in the end this wouldn't last and it would be nothing more than another loss, another hole to bear.

And he would suffer it silently, gladly, just for these moments.]

I could not teach you that. No more than I could teach my soul not to be the mate for yours.

[Of course he can't teach him that. It's not something that can be taught. Noctis isn't even sure why he asked that, really. It came out of him before he could catch himself.

Falling for Ezio... he was trying to catch himself, but every time they speak or spend time together, it's like the ground is removed from underneath his feet and he's left falling into the abyss.

They are doomed. To love each other but never remain together.]

Just... promise to not forget me... okay?

[There were so many promises that Ezio wanted to make. So many things he wanted to make a certainty, to act as if he alone had the power to make it so.

But he didn't have the power to make sure he would remember Noctis anymore than he had the power to keep him from dying.

So he lied, the words sounding desperate and heavy, like he was trying to convince himself just as much as he was trying to convince Noctis.]

I won't. I promise. [Because surely his heart would remember, even if his mind forgot.]

[Noctis knows that his request is unreasonable, that there is nothing out there that will make certain they will remember each other when they go back to their worlds.

Still, hearing it makes him feel more at ease, and his eyes slip closed.]

Thank you...
