Bad Luck: Frozen - tags Danny

[Riley Adams]

Warm.

That was the only thing he was thinking as he rolled in closer to his fiance in bed. Nuzzling the smaller man's neck, Riley breathed Danny in with a smile. The man was warm under the blankets and Riley didn't want to leave the bed. But he knew he should since he had to go to work soon.

With a soft kiss at the back of Danny's head, Riley rolled over and got out of bed, already missing the warmth as he took a quick shower and a quick breakfast, writing down a note for Danny before going down to start his car.

What he found made him groan. His truck was iced all over! The door handle wouldn't even budge. Blowing a disgruntled breath, he went back up to his apartment to wake Danny up.

"Augh, but he looks so peaceful." He whispered to himself before kneeling beside the bed and shaking his fiance up. "Danny...honey I'm so sorry but could you help me?"

[Danny Silverman]

Danny had gotten rather used to keeping his own hours. Unfortunately, this meant that he was used to sleeping in, sometimes later than others. Sometimes he was sad about this as it meant he missed Riley’s leaving. But when he was so comfortable in bed, it was very, very hard to move.

For that reason, he hardly stirred as Riley got up to get ready. And his eyes hardly fluttered open as Riley shook him. He peered up at his fiancé, looking quite disheveled with his curly hair all over the place and a five o’clock shadow on his chin. “Morning Riley. What…aren’t you late?” He rolled over to fetch his glasses from the bedside table and peered at the time. “You are late.” He sat up and hid a yawn behind his hand. “What’s up? What do you need?”

[Riley Adams]

Smiling as Danny stirred awake, Riley ran his fingers through the other man's curls with a sheepish grin. "I am...a little. But I called Rina earlier so it's okay." He shrugged before scratching the back of his head with a little laugh to himself.

"My car got iced over. Do you have like...a battery operated dryer?" Riley asked.

[Danny Silverman]

Danny nodded. “Shame you can’t stay later.” He kissed him, then sighed and rolled out of bed, stretching and running a hand—with difficulty—through the coarse black curls. “Um. I dunno. I have a blow-dryer from my days in LA—“ he didn’t really blow-dry his hair now “—but I don’t know if that would do the job. Electric blanket, maybe?” Now that was ridiculous. Danny grinned. “I’m sorry. I still haven’t learned to deal with snow that well. I tended to just walk everywhere. Um. Want to try mine? I have chains.” 

[Riley Adams]

"I could be persuaded." Riley teased lightly, bumping his nose against Danny's after their kiss. He stood up only to sit on the bed.

Danny's reply made him laugh and he shook his head in amusement. His suggestion made Riley sigh a little but agree with it. He hadn't wanted to put Danny out. "Maybe I'll just wait for you and we can go together?"

[Danny Silverman]

Danny laughed. "Don't say that or I'll do my best to persuade you." It wasn't as easy for him as it was for Riley to lean across the bed to give him a lingering kiss, but he managed. He pulled back to rest his forehead against Riley's, then sighed. "Only downside to this weather is my glasses fog up." He straightened up, rubbed them clean with his shirt--he'd do something more official later--then smiled at him. "I don't mind. Just give me a minute to shave. Or maybe we could work on something inventive! What do we have that can heat things?"

[Riley Adams]

"And maybe I say it because I want you to." Riley shot back with a chuckle, sighing into the kiss, not getting tired of kissing the man at all. He closed his eyes at their closeness and smiled when Danny spoke about his glasses.

"Take them off baby." The biological manipulator suggested with a grin. "I'll guide you around."

When Danny mentioned shaving, Riley scrambled to stop him. "No...I love your scruff." He pouted slightly as he cupped his fiance's cheeks.

"I actually don't know. Does hot water work?" He asked. "I usually park my car down in the garage but last night was...well...you distracted me." Riley blushed lightly.

[Danny Silverman]

Danny groaned softly. “Riley, you’re making it really difficult for me to want to help you get to work today. I don’t—no.” he sighed. “I promised to help you.”

He couldn’t help a grin at the idea. “I like that. But later. Remember? Later. When you’re back from work.” Which apparently he was going to unshaven, as Riley stopped him. He hummed at the contact and offered a smile at him. “If you insist.” He pulled away, then rubbed a hand through his hair. “Um.” He blushed as well, then shrugged. “It’s worth a shot, right? I’ll go heat up water in the kettle.”

[Riley Adams]

Riley couldn't help but chuckle at his fiance's gripe. He was so adorable when he grumbled. "Yes you did. Come." He stood up and offered his hand for Danny to grab.

"Okay, later." He chuckled and walked out of the bedroom. "Oh, why don't you get ready first? I'll have the water boiling. Then we can go and try." He spoke over his shoulder and went into the kitchen to fill up the pot.

[Danny Silverman]

Danny smiled at his fiancé and took his hand, letting Riley help him to his feet. He really didn’t want to leave now, but he had promised and Danny believed in duty even when he didn’t want to do something. He hid a yawn behind his hand, then nodded. “M’kay. I’ll be down soon.”

He ran a comb through his hair, rubbed his glasses clean, brushed his teeth and put on clean clothes. By Riley’s request, he did not shave, but came down the stairs rubbing his chin absently. “Hope you don’t regret this later,” he told Riley, coming up behind his fiancé and pressing a kiss to his neck. “How’s the water coming?”

[Riley Adams]

Riley couldn't help but sneak in another kiss on Danny's cheek before moving to the kitchen. He was humming a little tune when Danny came in. The kiss made him shiver and laugh. "Nothing to regret." Riley responded in a sing song manner.

"Almost done." The landscape artist chirped just before the kettle started singing. "Ah, there it is." He grinned and grabbed the kettle and set it aside. "Okay...should we put it in a bottle first? Or just pour it over the car from the kettle?"

[Danny Silverman]

Danny laughed back and lightly nudged him with his hip. “I like it when you try that sing-song thing.”

Danny turned to look as the kettle started whistling, then looked at him. “Um. Should we just pour it out of the kettle? Will that do any harm? Do you think it’s cold enough for it to come out of the spout frozen?” Danny seemed taken with this thought, then shook his head. “No, let’s give it a try. You got a coat?” Danny would’ve borrowed one of Riley’s, but wearing it made him look like a child of five wearing his father’s coat. So instead Danny grabbed his own and went looking for Riley’s. “I never regret moving here, but it’s been really cold this year.” 

[Riley Adams]

Riley had to chuckle at Danny's response to his childishness. The younger man was much too good to him sometimes. His answer to Riley's query made the landscaper squint his eyes in thought before shaking his head laughing lightly. "I hope not." He shook his head in amusement before verbally responding in the positive when Danny asked about his coat.

Grabbing it from behind the door, Riley shook it in Danny's direction to show that he'd found it. "It really has, huh?" Riley nodded as he shrugged his coat on and grabbed the kettle. He held the door open for his fiance. "Good thing we have ways to keep warm." He beamed.

[Danny Silverman]

Danny smiled at Riley as he found his coat and nodded, shrugging his own on and sliding under Riley’s arm to head out the door. He laughed at his statement and leaned up to kiss him again.

“Yup,” he said. “Now hurry up. I think I’m already getting frostbite.” He’d moved here for the snow, certainly, but sometimes he really regretted that decision. Still, everything was going quite well.

((And wrap!))
