Work Text:
Will and Connor were infamous for their fights. Their first interaction had been snappy and they, along with everyone they knew, thought that so would be their last. But isn't that the goal? To even find love in the arguments and screams and anger? Will and Connor did not need to find that love. Love had found them, disguising itself as every emotion that arose within them whenever they looked at each other, spoke to each and touched each other. And when they were in bed, there was not a moment of opinions clashing or anger boiling. It was the complete opposite- a land of which one would dream of in heaven, maybe.
Will woke up early to go to the gym. He looked at the Connor, all bundled up in the blanket that he had somehow managed to hoard last night from him. All Will could feel in that moment was pure happiness. Even if this moment, he knew, was ephemeral, the love that flowed like a river in his life since the night he had worked up the courage to kiss Connor, was perennial.
He did not notice Connor stirring and blinking his eyes open as he travelled back in time to those first very special moments.
"You know it is a bit creepy for someone to be staring off into space at 4 in the morning, right?" said Connor in a sleepy voice.
"Fuck!" exclaimed Will, definitely a bit shook,"You scared me, love."
Connor snickered, "Sorry about that. Where are you off to at this ungodly hour?"
"Firstly, it is definitely a Godly hour, every productivity Guru out there has been screaming at the top their lungs about this. And secondly, I missed most of my workouts last month, I need to get back on track. Wouldn't want you drifting off towards hotter bods out there now, do we?"
Connor simply scoffed at Will and said," I could only ever want you, William. And I am more likely to stay with you if I get your body heat keeping me alive in these Chicago winters."
Will rolled his eyes at that and gave Connor a look.
"Plus, I don't think it is possible for someone to have a more attractive mind or a sexier heart than do you, baby boy. So come back to bed," said Connor, patting the space next to him.
Will could only smile brightly at that.
"Now c’mere… want snuggles,” murmured Connor while reaching out to Will with grabby hands.
And how, in the whole wide world, could Will ever resist that?
