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.

Orlando nods. "I will. I can do it, now that I'm on the right path. I'll find that pot of gold," he says, and he smiles. "I will need you, Will Porter. Even if it feels like I'm pushing you away, I will need you."

"And I'll be right there with you," Will nods, pressing the palm of his hand to Orli's chest. "You're my boo," he smiles. "You won't get rid of me unless you sneak out of town in the middle of the night." He narrows his eyes as if thinking about that. "Of course, I'd track you like a bloodhound, so not even then."

Orlando laughs. "I might try it sometime, just to see if I can do it!" His eyes sparkle with mischief.

"Yeah, you do that!" Will giggles and gives Orli a kiss. "I guarantee you'll get tossed over my shoulder and carried back home."

"Oh really?? I might be tricky, you know," he teases, bouncing on the balls of his feet as if he were going to make a run for it now.

"Not on my watch!" Will laughs, quickly bending down and putting Orli over his shoulder as threatened.

Orlando squeals and wriggles, not trying very hard to get away.

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.

[orlandomuse.livejournal.com]

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

[ex-will-port106.livejournal.com]

"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!"

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.

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.
