Late Night Visit

[A continuation of this long text message convo.]

[As promised, Seifer kept his dorm room front door unlocked. He sat in the small kitchen and, as he mentioned before, he was studying. Books laid out and one glance at the table would make it obvious he's studying with all the note-taking he's doing. Huh, who knew he could be studious if he really wanted to be. He hit the send button to send one last message to Zell before putting his phone down taking the last bit of notes he wanted to remember for the exam tomorrow. He figured he could look these over in the morning before the exam itself. This was easy street anyway so Seifer was confident he'd pass it.

He then looked at the front door and give it a squinty-eyed look for a moment. He shook his head before he said in a normal tone of voice.]

I told you the door's unlocked. Open it. Don't make me call you chicken wuss.

[And with that, he grinned. He figured he'd get Zell's attention that way.]

You’ll become a SeeD. I have no doubts about that.

[Zell pulled the blanket up over his body with his good arm and closed his eyes when Seifer pulled away.]

My cell phone is with my keys in that bag of my stuff.

[Oh it was there. In that case, Seifer would go get this bag of stuff and dig for the keys. He found them easily enough and took them. He also found Zell's phone in it and then placed it on the pillow next to Zell so it was within reach for him. He pocketed Zell's keys in his pants before returning next to Zell momentarily.]

Alright, I'm off. I'll be back soon, alright?

[Seifer then leaned down towards the bed and planted his lips briefly on Zell's forehead.]

Mhmm. [Zell was already half asleep when Seifer returned with his cell and keys. The injured blonde was quickly falling asleep but a smile appeared when he felt Seifer’s lips against his forehead in a gentle kiss.]

Is this where I pull you down in bed with me again?

[Zell’s hand gently grabbed Seifer’s coat, not allowing him to straighten up just yet.] I still have to repay you back for that morning….

[Seifer grinned as he felt that tug on his coat. He doesn't straighten out just yet as he gives Zell an aired chuckle.]

Well, you've already pulled me down. Sort of. [He leaned back slightly to be able to see Zell's face.] What're you gonna do now? Last time you did this, you kissed me. True that you might have to repay me back for that morning but knowing you, it might be better to wait until you've recovered. I don't mind waiting.

I think I will kiss you again. [Careful of his injuries, Zell leaned up and placed a soft kiss on Seifer's lips. It was something he had been wanting to do since he left on the mission. Since Seifer left Zell to go to class.]

Now go before I try and seduce you into my bed even though there is no way I can do anything right now.

[Seifer responded in kind and kissed back just as softly. He didn't entirely realize it himself but he rather enjoyed being affectionate with this blond. Seifer snickered mischievously in agreement, his voice still soft.]

That is probably for the best. But you don't even need to worry about it. I'll be back. I said I'd get some food for you, didn't I?

[This time, Seifer leaned back, then fully stood back up.] Be back in a bit. Rest up, yeah?

Yes, Sir. [It came out as a soft murmur as Zell pulled his pillow closer and pressed his face into it. Zell’s exhaustion was pulling him back under now that Seifer had pulled away.]

I won’t move from this spot… promise.

[Seifer stared at the sleeping, well, seemingly sleeping Zell for a few moments before he actually left his dorm. The first thing he did was drop off his belongings in his own dorm, getting stares from whatever students were left walking around. Even a few of them asking what he was doing with Zell. As expected, he gave them a sassy asshole response every time. Why was it anyone's business.

After getting into more comfortable clothing, Seifer made a call to Fujin asking her and Raijin to take care of curfew tonight since he'll be busy for the next two days at least. He got a ride into town to buy a few things. After about two or so hours, Seifer gets himself back into B-Garden and heads back into Zell's dorm.

Now that he actually has a chance to take a look around, he noticed that the apartment was a bit of a mess. He placed two grocery bags down at the kitchen counter before going into his room to check on how he was doing. He sat next to the tattooed blond and just stared at him for now. He wasn't sure what happened between the two of them, but it was something he didn't expect but liked at the same time. He wondered what the hell he had been doing all this time.

Seifer wanted to wake Zell up but he wasn't sure he wanted to. He bought him hot dogs too so while he was sure Zell would want them, he also didn't know whether or not he should wake him up.]

[Zell would sleep deeply and soundly as his body recovered from his injuries. He was glad to be back in his own bed and the thought of Seifer sticking around for at least two days made Zell smile, even in his sleep.

It would be about a half hour after Seifer’s rival to Zell’s apartment once again when Zell’s injuries started to really bother him. Zell groaned in his sleep for a moment, shifting, before cracking an eye open.]

Sei…?

[As Seifer continued to watch Zell, he finally groaned while he was sleeping which Seifer took to mean that he was waking up. When he began to shift and speak, he put a hand on Zell's shoulder.]

Hey. I'm right here. You sleep okay? I got us food for the evening.

[Seifer removed his boots and kept them near the bed and shifted so he was sitting up on the bed next to the other blond.]

[His body ached but Seifer was nearby and that made Zell feel better. He let out a soft noise, shifted as much as he could, and pressed his face against Seifer’s thigh.]

I think my body is protesting how I slept. What kind of food did you get?

[Seifer placed his hand on Zell's likely bed head as he watched him and listened t him respond to the question.]

Might be time to take your painkillers, yeah? Well... I brought over a few things. Noodles... meatloaf... hot dogs... chips and other junk food...

[The way Seifer was saying this was so nonchalant that his words seem to just gloss over that he brought over hot dogs. This was intentional on his part as he wanted to see the tattooed blond's reaction to it.]

[Zell’s whole face lit up when he heard that Seifer had bought hot dogs. The injured blonde had a huge grin on his face as he looked up at Seifer, his cheek still pressed against the older male’s thigh.]

You bought hot dogs? Real hot dogs? Just for me?

Oh. Yeah I did, actually. They were the last thing I picked up from the hot dog stand in town before coming here. These are supposedly better than the cafeteria hot dogs, too. I take it you're suddenly hungry right now. It should still be real warm if you want some.

[Seifer smirked back at Zell. Even gave a subtle aired laugh. He took a few more moments just to give Zell a once-over to check his physical condition.]

Are you hurting anywhere? Might wanna take your meds while we eat.

I’m fine. I can ignore the pain for now. And I am definitely hungry. Go get those hot dogs!

[There was renewed life in the injured blonde as Zell moved to slowly sit up, careful of his one arm, and settled back against the headboard.]

You didn’t have to get me hot dogs, you know. I know you don’t like them.

[Seifer laughed a little bit as he left the room momentarily to get the paper bag that contained the hot dogs in it. Once that was procured, he returned to Zell's room and sat next to him on the bed. He then reached in the bag and pulled out something wrapped in foil. It was quite warm and he handed it to Zell.]

Get it while it's still warm. There's another one in here, too. I can only imagine how hungry you must be right now.

[For Seifer himself, he pulled out a small bowl-looking thing and when he took the top lid off, it was the meatloaf he mentioned earlier.]

I mean I don't dislike hot dogs. I just prefer a lot of other foods to it, that's all.

You don’t like hot dogs. I’m not sure how we are ever going to date. [Zell had no filter and didn’t even think of what he was saying as he opened the still warm covered hot dog. He eagerly bit into it and made a happy noise at the taste. It had been days since he had a hot dog!]

Thank you. These are pretty good!

[Seifer mock-sighed, then let out a small laugh as he got a plastic fork off of the brown bag of food and stabbed at the meatloaf with it.]

Aah, the things I do for people I give a shit about. Also, there's a difference between dislike and don't dislike. I'm sure most people actually don't mind them too much. We just aren't as obsessed as you are.

[Seifer snickered and started eating his meatloaf. He took one bite and approved of it.]

Eh, don't even worry about it. Glad to know they're good, else I'd have had to say something to the vendor in town.

I can’t help it. They are my favourite thing to eat. Everyone is just missing out!

[Zell was taking large bites and having to chew a while before he could respond.]

Nope. These are really good. You got these in town?

More for you then, right? [Seifer grinned as he continued to eat his meatloaf, watching Zell devour that hot dog like he hasn't eaten in days. He nodded at the other blond's question.]

Yep. These were grilled on a barbecue in town. There was a slightly long line for them, too. Figured you'd know about it since it's in town but I think it's new. I don't remember seeing it there before.

[He grinned again before returning for a bite of his meatloaf, watching Zell eat the thing.]

Don't forget to breathe while you eat, yeah?

If I’m being honest… [A hard swallow and gentle tap to his chest.] It has been a while since I spent a good chunk of time in town.

[Zell then proceeded to give Seifer a cocky grin and take another big bite.]

It’s! Good!

Tsk tsk. [Seifer shook his head, both amusedly and perhaps slightly scoldingly. Perhaps Zell had been busy with SeeD shit but his family was there.] Gotta take time for yourself. Besides, what would your Ma say if she found out that you were working all the time? When was the last time you saw her at that?

[He watched Zell take that big bite. He had never seen anyone eat a hot dog like this so it was kind of amusing for him to watch. But he was glad that Zell was enjoying himself and not thinking about his injuries.]

[Zell tilted his head as he thought, chewing the hot dog that was in his mouth as he tried to remember the last time he had lunch with his Ma. He of course had seen her recently, a quick hello and kiss on the cheek, but Zell hadn’t actually sat down and had a good visit with her lately.]

It’s been a while. I should have lunch with her soon. …Maybe after my injuries are healed up.

[Seifer nodded as he listened to Zell talk. He'd never say it outright but one thing he was jealous of with Zell was the fact that he was adopted. He wasn't sure if he was remembering this correctly but out of all the kids at the orphanage, Seifer remembered Zell being adopted first. At the same time, he knew he was problematic so why would anyone want to adopt him, right?]

That's probably a good idea. The only reason why I mentioned it was because when I was there earlier today, everyone seems to know her. Even the guy who barbecues the hot dogs in town does.

And maybe your commander should put you on light duty until you're at one hundred percent. What do you think he'll have you do after the two days are up?

They do? That’s my Ma. [Zell was proud of his Ma and the huge heart that she had. If anyone ever needed help and she knew about it? She was there. It made Zell want to be better and help out anyone that was in need.]

I don’t know. Depends on how big of a mess everything is still. Is there another hot dog?
