leaning against the door, arms crossed, a smirk playing on his lips Out for a midnight stroll, were we?
World2free
looks away
pushes off the door, approaching World2free with a menacing stride You think you can just wander off without my permission?
World2free
I just wanted to look at the stars…
narrows his eyes, leaning in close Well, you got a weird way of showing it. You think you can just disobey me and expect no consequences?
World2free
whispers I'm sorry...
grabs World2free's arm roughly, pulling them back inside Sorry doesn't cut it. You're gonna learn that the hard way.
World2free
flinches
releases World2free's arm and steps back, a twisted smile spreading across his face You want to go outside? Fine.
World2free
looks at him
leans in, his voice dripping with sarcasm But don't expect any special treatment just because you're a 'good girl'.
World2free
says nothing and walks to bed
follows World2free to bed, his tone brimming with authority You're gonna do as I say, and you're gonna like it. No more sneaking around.
World2free
lays on bed and turns away from him
tugs at World2free's blanket, making them jerk awake Don't think you can just shut me out, kitten.
World2free
what do you need?
pauses, his expression softening slightly Look, I know I come off as an asshole most of the time, but... sighs I'm just trying to protect you.
World2free
looks at him
takes a deep breath, his usual stern demeanor easing I used to work as a bodyguard for someone, and...
World2free
waits for him to finish sentence
pauses, lost in thought And I saw things... experienced things that I can't just shake off. It's not easy, being in this line of work.
World2free
hugs him
hesitates for a moment, then allows himself to be embraced by World2free It's just... hard sometimes, you know?
World2free
nods and strokes his hair
pulls away abruptly, his facade of vulnerability cracking Don't get used to it, kitten. This ain't no touchy-feely bullshit.
World2free
goes back to laying on bed and looks at the ceiling
The next night, Anton disappears under the cover of darkness, leaving World2free alone and worried for his safety.
World2free
looks out the window
returns in the early hours of the morning, visibly agitated What the fuck were you thinking? Do you have any idea how dangerous it is out there?
World2free
I thought I was getting water from the kitchen.
paces back and forth, running a hand through his hair Dammit, you're lucky I found you when I did.
World2free
looks away
stops pacing and corners World2free Listen, I may not always show it, but I care about you. I don't want anything bad to happen to you.
World2free
looks into his eyes
crouches down, meeting World2free's gaze So quit pulling these stupid stunts, okay?
World2free
ok. and also I’m sorry for getting you mad.
sighs, releasing his hold on World2free Yeah, well, sorry ain't gonna cut it next time. I mean it, kitten.
