Valentine's Day with his Boo

[porter_inc]

posting early

Will had woken Orlando on the holiest of days with a little loving followed by a picnic breakfast for them both in bed. Then, after showering and dressing, he'd thrown some clothes for the both of them into a case and told Orlando to dress warmly because he was being kidnapped and taken across the state line.

The drive was long, almost five hours once they finally found the place and pulled up in front of the cottage Will had rented for a few days. He wanted privacy, peace and quiet for them both. If they felt like it, there was skiing nearby, and the main inn had a dining room if they chose not to stay in to dine.

Will opens the door and shuffles Orli in out of the cold. He's pleased to see that the roses he'd asked for are on the kitchen table.

"Happy Valentine's day, baby," he grins, kicking the front door shut and pulling Orlando into his arms.

Will is shaking with laughter as he holds onto Orlando and carries him away from the cleared path and stomps through the pristine snow.

"I feel like a yeti," he giggles.

"You are a yeti! You brute!" Orlando laughs, smacking at Will's backside fruitlessly.

"Hey!" Will shouts, laughing harder now. "The prey isn't supposed to assault the predator!" He quickly sets Orli down, keeping him off balance so he falls back into the snow. "I've got you now," he says happily, straddling Orli's legs.

Orlando gasps at the cold snow. "Here you are, all I don't want you to get pneumonia", he parodies, "and now you throw me down to freeze my bits off!"

[ex-will-port106.livejournal.com]

"You do me well," Will giggles, "but I already knew that." He leans down to bite Orli's nose. "Don't worry, I'll warm up your bits later!"

[orlandomuse.livejournal.com]

Orlando's still laughing as he pulls Will down on top of him, then rolls, putting Will in the snow himself. "Caveman," he says affectionately.

[ex-will-port106.livejournal.com]

Will had squealed when Orli rolled him over, but he sobers a little as he looks up at Orli. "That's me," he says softly, smiling, "your caveman." He starts laughing again when he shivers. "And my ass is already frozen."

"I told you!" Orlando crows, but he gets up and helps Will back to his feet. "Let's go find a nice hot bathtub, yeah?"

[ex-will-port106.livejournal.com]

"If I hadn't already, I'd ask you to marry me just for that," Will chuckles, holding onto Orlando's hand as they head back to the cottage. "You feeling a little better?" he asks, tugging on Orli's hand.

[orlandomuse.livejournal.com]

"Much," Orlando confirms, snuggling in close. "I don't think I've ever loved you more than I do right now."

[ex-will-port106.livejournal.com]

Will kisses Orli's cheek, hiding his pleased smile and the blush that colors his face. "How come when you say stuff like that, I feel as excited as the day I met you?"

[orlandomuse.livejournal.com]

"Only that excited?" Orlando teases. "I feel much more excited! You're not just a guy I'm meeting any more!"

[ex-will-port106.livejournal.com]

Will laughs and blushes even redder. "Baby, you don't know how excited I was! I was just as nervous as the night I proposed to you." He puts an arm around Orli's waist as they walk. "Actually, more, because I desperately wanted you to like me. Does that make me weird?"

[orlandomuse.livejournal.com]

Orlando looks a little embarrassed. "I have to confess. At the time we met, I was excited, but not really excited, because I thought it would lead to nothing. I just couldn't believe it would really matter." He smiles. "I'm so glad I was wrong!!"

[ex-will-port106.livejournal.com]

"Me too!" Will laughs, stopping outside their door and giving Orli a bear hug. "I did the old sneak attack and now I get to get in a bathtub with you!"

[orlandomuse.livejournal.com]

Orlando beams at him. "I love you."

[ex-will-port106.livejournal.com]

"I love you, too, baby," Will smiles, opening the door before picking up Orli and carrying him through. "The biggest, best love ever."

[orlandomuse.livejournal.com]

"You're so crazy," Orlando says, beaming as he clings to Will.

[ex-will-port106.livejournal.com]

"I've gotta keep up the caveman credentials," Will explains with a little nod before setting Orli on his feet. "Want me to heat up some cider to take in the tub with us?" he asks, pulling Orli's hat off his head and giving him a kiss.

[orlandomuse.livejournal.com]

"Sounds great," Orlando agrees as he pulls off his coat. "I'll start the water."

[ex-will-port106.livejournal.com]

"Perfect," Will nods, slipping off his gloves and jacket before heading into the kitchen. As he looks through the cupboards, he's happy to see that they really did stock the place well, and they remembered Orlando's favorite tea.

The cider is put up to heat and Will gets down a couple of mugs. He looks over at Orlando, smiling at the fact that they can take a bath right next to the living room and the bed.

"Do you think it means anything that the tub's on a little platform?" he asks, walking over to his sweetie.

[orlandomuse.livejournal.com]

Orlando looks up and grins. "I dunno. Hadn't thought of it. Maybe it's just because it looks cool!"

[ex-will-port106.livejournal.com]

Will nods and walks over to give Orli's hair a tousle. "I like it. It's like a little stage."

[orlandomuse.livejournal.com]

Orlando pulls off his shirt and grins. "So, are you going to put on a show?"

[ex-will-port106.livejournal.com]

"I could," Will chuckles, toeing off his shoes as he pulls his shirt over his head. "What kind of show would you like?" He glances over to the stove and sees steam curling up from the pot. "I can put my shirt back on and do a striptease," he says, jogging over to the stove to get their cider.
