[Okay... good.. he's calming. Something's finally helping rather than intensifying Cater's anxiety.

Riddle allows himself to relax into the position as well, one shorter leg lightly tangling with a longer one. He'll continue the kissing until Cater's fully calmed down... if that's possible.]

[It's hard to say how long they carry on like that, the room quiet save for nothing but the sounds of their mouths and breaths in the dark. One of Cater's hands ends up resting at the back of Riddle's neck, fingers winding through his hair. When he finally does break their locked lips, he doesn't go far, his breath still hot against Riddle's skin.]

...I'm keeping you awake.

[chopoffyourhead]

[After that bout of kissing, Riddle can't help but pant a bit. Damn... they probably shouldn't be getting worked up so late at night.

Yet the words only get a soft noise of amusement from him, and he kisses the corner of his mouth.]

Feeling a little better now?

[caycay]

Yeah.

[For now. Sooner or later, the same anxieties will come creeping back...but right now, he feels soothed. Without really thinking about it, he finds one of Riddle's hands with his own and threads their fingers together.]

How about you?

[chopoffyourhead]

[A softening of his features at that response.]

Good...

[Gently, he slides off Cater and back to his side, keeping their hands intertwined. He snuggles up against his side.]

Much better. Thank you.

[caycay]

[Cater smiles to himself, shifting to his side so he can properly fit their bodies close together. He doesn't know if he'll fall asleep, but in this moment he has peace. The loneliness monster has retreated back into its cavern. Face in Riddle's hair, he murmurs a reciprocal:]

Thank you.

[chopoffyourhead]

[He gives a happy little hum, nuzzling into him. Though... they both still had quite a bit of stress, didn't they? Hm...

He pulls back.]

Actually... speaking of the diffuser, Jamil gave me one to help with sleep.

It's helped me get back to sleep after nightmares before.

[He presses a kiss to Cater's forehead, then pulls away to go set that up.]
