Do you want me to give you a sweet dream tonight?
( there's something so genuine in the soft way he asks the other, blue eyes searching his face as he does. )
[Wade's brown eyes meet blue as those fingers trace his face, shivering a bit under the gentle scrutiny. It's a level of intimacy that he's not really had here. He's slept with plenty of people, sure, but nothing even approaching this.]
I would like that... [If only he could do the same for Nate.]
[He stares back. Why Nate wanted to do all these things for him is causing no shortage of wonder for Wade. There are ways he's like Cable, but in this way, he's very much not. He's kinder, more like Colossus, maybe? Wade settles into his pillow, sneaking an arm to clutch the dip of Nate's waist, as his eyes close.
Having nice dreams for a change, not ones haunted by pain? It's almost better than sex.
