| Jurgen indulges in one of his favourite pastimes. | 2007-05-11 23:23 |

Jurgen wipes the last of the water from his face and scrubs the towel over his head, letting the heat dry the remains of dampness from his shower as he wanders back to the bedroom.
He can't help but smile at the sight that greets him. Who could, and why should they bother? A naked Ben is definitely a reason for smiling. Even – or perhaps especially – a naked, sleeping Ben, sprawled across the covers and drooling onto his pillow. Jurgen pads quietly closer, just watching him. It's not an indulgence he gets often – Ben seems to have a sixth sense about Jurgen watching him, always waking up quickly. Not that that does not also have its advantages!
Last night, though, was a late one, and fraught for his love. A telephone call from the children, and one of those calamities that seems so very important when you are eight - the kind that only your father can solve. Jurgen ghosts a hand over Ben's hair as he carefully sits next to him on the bed. Ben is very good at solving problems, and very good with his children. And also very good at berating himself for not seeing them often enough.
Ah, Love. Jurgen pets his hair again. Do you think they could ever forget how very much you love them? He hears their love in every phone call, sees it whenever they run to greet him on holidays. Well, he amends with a smile, Katie runs; Drew, naturally, is beyond such a thing these days. He shakes his head; they grow so fast.
Jurgen makes a mental note to find out when the children will be joining them this summer. There is a bit to be done yet in order to make their flat once more hospitable to children; it would never do to be caught out as Mona caught Isabel! He trails his fingers over the leather cuff on Ben's wrist, the reminder he seemed to need last night that his burdens were not his alone. Change this for the more public leather wristband, lock away the toys and Club paperwork… He should make a list.
Right now, however, he would rather catalogue other things. He brushes his knuckles up Ben's arm, smiling at the shiver he gets. This body, this face…this wonderful, precious man. He makes a list in his head, each reason he loves Ben, and every quality he treasures. And for each, he sets another thing next to it – how he will remind Ben of it, so that he does not forget. He glances at the clock, calculating how much time they have left in the weekend.
This should be interesting.

In that case, I have a bit more shopping left to do.
I will see you this evening.

I would never dream of it.
You do know that right now, you are asking to be teased for quite some time tonight, and to be quite unable to sit tomorrow?

Good lord, how did I miss that?
I suppose I shouldn't worry about him reading this, in that case.
And yes, he does list himself as exclusively interested in female partners. More's the pity.

Cheating? The thought had never crossed my mind! I only worry about their knowing the less well-accepted of our habits, Love.
Although, now that you should mention it, the picture of you and Chris together is quite a nice one...

And why are you noticing his muscles? How bruised would you like your ass before tomorrow?
Precisely how worried should I be that he is reading this? Am I perhaps better off not knowing which of your friends are close enough to see what we are talking about?

No more flashes? I should damn well hope so!
Tell Chris to stop protecting you; that is my job.
I am almost done with the shopping; how much longer will you be bruising your ass before I can do it for you?

I am rather partial to eating.
Why have you been falling? Are you being careful?
