And I can feel the warning signs

<div align=center>"I know." William answered quietly, at least Gabe was being honest with him about it, that was nice. He giggled, pet names were his favourite thing in the world, or at least one of them. It'd have to happen at some point, anyhow, better sooner than later, maybe I should have practiced. He thought that was cheating though, it would have been a better idea, pain and hassle would have been reduced, but William hadn't thought of that. Gabriel wasn't going to mock him or laugh at him though and that made him feel better, he trusted Gabe more than most other people, he wouldn't hurt him, not on purpose.

"Thank you." He mumbled, his intentions perhaps weren't as innocent as they could be, other things were on his mind, and he was more or less sure that Gabe knew that those things were. He perhaps would have preferred to make this into a date though, Gabe and Bill had never really been on a proper date before, though William didn't really want to go out, it was too cold, and it was supposed to snow tonight, he would have preferred to curl up and watch movies with his boyfriend, his dorm room was cosy, and the mess gave it a lived in sort of feel, though Bill would probably end up tidying it up over the course of the evening. "I would like to stay here." Gabe's bed wasn't really big enough for both of them, but William liked that, he liked being close to Gabriel, and besides, he provided beloved warmth.</div>

<div align=center>William drew his hands out from underneath Gabe's shirt, and slowly pushed himself to his feet, leaving Gabe sat on the floor. He smiled softly, and leaned down to kiss him on the top of the head. He shuffled over to a cupboard and took a mug from it, "tea?" He asked, "coffee?" He switched the kettle on and set his mug down, Gabe didn't really have a kitchen, but there was a tiny fridge plugged in that was set on the side, when Bill opened it he found it was mostly filled with alcohol, which made him frown, but there was a carton of milk in there too, and that was what he'd been looking for.

He poured water into his mug, and dropped a teabag into it. If there was one thing William could live off, it was tea. He loved it. He stirred milk in it and added sugar, a large amount, the boy had a sweet tooth, regardless of what he was eating or drinking, it tasted better with a mountain of sugar in it, his mother had always told him his teeth were going to fall out. Well look at me now, mom. He took a sip from the mug, my teeth are just fine.</div>

<div align=center>William laughed, "idiot." He shook his head and made what Gabe had asked him to. He took a moment to stir in the coffee powder, Gabe's stupid jokes were cute, they were always cute. He took another sip of tea, purring softly at the warmth of it. He shuffled over and passed Gabriel a mug. "You'll be up all night." He warned, tutting at him, though he wondered if that was going to be the case anyway. The boy laughed, and sat himself next to Gabe on the floor. He leaned forward and pressed a small, warm kiss to his lips, his mouth would have tasted like tea and sugar.

"I'll maybe need to get pyjamas," he shrugged, or he could just sleep in his underwear, either way worked fine. He liked having his pyjamas though, they were comfortable and warm. He wanted to cuddle and watch movies, Bill most likely wouldn't take supper, he wasn't really hungry right now and probably wouldn't get hungry over the course of the evening. Bill never really ate very much, which most likely explained his stature, he was almost unhealthily skinny, it perhaps would have been a little worrying to someone if they looked close enough.</div>

<div align=center>"Why?" The boy laughed softly, lifting an eyebrow and bringing his mug to his lips again. He'd perhaps not made his tea milky enough, but he didn't feel like getting up and fetching the milk again. He knew Gabriel's underlying intentions, he didn't mind one bit, that was more or less fine by him. He placed his mug on the carpet next to him, William didn't think he could wear one person out quite that much, regardless of situation, he wasn't really all that much hassle to look after, all he needed was cuddles every now and then and a constant supply of tea.

William didn't know if that was a good idea or not, maybe not, he didn't think Micheal would be there and besides, it wasn't fair to make Gabe go all the way back to his dorm just to get pyjamas, he'd do it later maybe, "no," he answered, smiling just a little, "I'll go and get them later, it'll be okay for now." He patted Gabe on the head affectionately, "you can do that another time, you don't have to do it right now." He told him, picking his mug up again and taking a tentative sip from it.</div>

<div align=center>William laughed at Gabe's confusion, he shook his head, and lifted an eyebrow. "You are silly." He chirped, finishing off the last of the tea and pushing himself back up to his feet to go and wash his mug up. "Bring your mug to me when you're done, I'll clean it." Now was probably the time he'd end up cleaning everything in Gabe's room, it wasn't something he did to be rude, it was just an instinctive thing he did, he liked a tidy environment, it made everything that much nicer, though it took away some of the coziness of the room if you made it too tidy.

He wanted so badly to make the bed, the covers were messed and one of the pillows were on the floor, it didn't look like someone could sleep in it and William didn't like that. He shuffled over to it and placed the pillow back up on the bed, picking up the duvet and flattening it, tucking it underneath the pillow and tucking the loose bits of sheet that dangled out from the bed. "You should tidy more often," William stated, nodding a little, "it's shocking, you know." He beamed at Gabe, and giggled.</div>
