"Whatever helps you sleep at night. Speaking of which, you should do so. It's late and we both know how grumpy you get when you don't sleep."
Jay took a deep breath, the scent of the cafe's baked goods filling his nose. "That smells so good right now."
"what about you, though. Are you going sleep?" Logan asked, already settling into their comfy bed. He nuzzled into Jackson's chest and pressed a gentle kiss to his skin. "I do not get grumpy." He whined, snuggling into the warmth of the blankets and against Jackson.
"it really does." Raz agreed, looking around for an empty table to sit at. Surprisingly, not many were open, despite it being late at night.
Jackson rolled his eyes with a smile. "Sure you don't bean. Whatever makes you feel better. But yes, I will sleep. It just might take me a minute."
Jay pulled him over to an empty one in the corner by the counter, settling into it with a contented sigh.
Logan weakly poked at Jackson before relaxing in his fiance's hold and slowing his breathing. "Alright, I love you, angel." He murmured. "Forever." He pressed a soft kiss to Jackson's mouth before closing his eyes and drifting off to sleep
Raz settled into the chair across from Jay. Picking up one of the menus, he looked through the options, finally landing on the doughnuts Jay had mentioned before. "Which one were you thinking of getting?" He asked, already finding one that caught his attention
Jackson smiled softly. "I love you too bean, more than anything." He whispered, knowing Logan couldn't hear him. He closed his eyes, willing himself to relax and sleep.
Jay looked it over for a minute before pointing to one that caught his eye. "That one. That looks so good right now."
Logan fell into a deep, comforting sleep throughout the night, despite the cup and a half of coffee he had consumed a few hours before.
"It does. I think I'm going with the punkin spice doughnut and a chai tea." He decided, setting aside the menu and relaxed into the chair, taking a moment to relax for the night
(Y'all the friends are back and I'm not okay 😂)
Jay hummed, nodding along with his selection. "Good choice, that sounds really good. I'll just take my doughnut and we can chill out."
(they really do mess with ya😂)
Raz chuckled softly "if our two rromates find out where we and what we're about to eat, I'm fairly sure they won't forgive us until the wedding." He reached over and gently took Jay's hand, lightly skimming his knuckles with his thumb.
Jay waved him off nonchalantly. "Details, details. I'm sure they'd do the same thing in our position and, to be fair, we probably wouldn't forgive them either. Although I'd be more offended that they didn't offer to get me one rather than them going out for doughnuts altogether."
"so that probably means we should order a few donoughts for them too." Raz reasoned with a laugh. "Probably be best since we never brought them the chocolate strawberries from the honeymoon." He pulled the menu back over with his free hand and played it flat against the table. "Which ones do you think they'd like?"
"Jackson will takes the s'mores one. That will be gone in seconds with his chocolate marshmallow obsession. What about Logan? What do you think he'd like?"
"coffee anything of course but lately he's had a craving for lemon flavored foods so I think the lemon glazed cream donut would be good for him. Want to take some cinnamon roles for breakfast tomorrow?" He asked, making eye contact with a waiter and waving them over
"Yes, absolutely. If the smell of warm cinnamon doesn't wake Jackson out of the deepest sleep, he's dead. He loves cinnamon rolls." Jay laughed.
"it definitely explains why he's marrying Logan." Raz laughed. "Hopefully it'll wake us up too. After going to sleep so late into the night, i'm not sure I'll want to get up from our warm bed."
"That's very true. On both statements." Jay laughed, resting his head on Raz's shoulder. "What would I do without our little family. At this point, I don't know anymore."
Raz wrapped his arm around Jay's shoulder, finger twining into his hair. "That's not something you have to ever worry about, My king." He murmured softly, pressing a kiss Jay'a head. "We'll always be by your side, not matter what. I promise."
"I know you will. You don't have a choice in the matter. You are stuck to me even if you didn't want to be. Remember, soul bond." Jay chuckled, nuzzling into his warmth.
"how could I forget? But still, with or without the bond, I don't think I'd ever want to apart from you. That bond isn't what's keeping me tied to you. It really never has been." Raz replied. "That's the case for Jackson and Logan. They're not bound to you but they still choose to share their lives with us." He gave a soft smiled and idly combed through Jay's hair.
"I know that, my prince. I'm just saying that regardless of what time says or tries to do to us, it'll never be able to take you away from me. Never. It can try but it'll only be for a few minutes at best."
Raz nodded slightly, shivering at the mention of his death. He hugged jay a bit closer and pressed a gentle kiss to Jay's head. "Whatever happens, I'll try my best to get back to you as fast as possible." He promised, glancing up and giving the waiter a small nod in appreciation when he set their plates of donuts down and left without a word.
"I have no doubt you would. I would too in a heartbeat. You mean far too much to me." Jay sighed quietly. "What do you think Logan and Jackson will want to do for their wedding? I know one thing for sure, it'll be very colorful."
"honestly that's the only think that we can guarrentee. And of course Lo's photos will most likely be incorporated. As fir the venue or even the theme, I'm not entirely sure." He murmured, breaking away from Hay for a moment to get his donut. "Have any ideas? I was thinking of finding an outdoor venue fir then since Lo isn't religious. Ooh or maybe ruins? There's an old castle we found a few years back in college. It's a bit far but it really is beautiful."
"Yeah, definitely. Plus, y'know, Jackson. It's why I insisted on us not having a church wedding. We'll burst into flames upon entering." He chuckled as he bit into his doughnut. "Okay, not quite true but it causes some…discomfort and priests give both of us the creeps."
"somehow I feel like priests feel the same." Raz laughed softly and broke off a piece of his donut for Jay to try. "Churches are nice I guess, many can be beautiful but I feel like there are so many more venues that are just as lovely without having the overbearing religous expectations."
"As we should." Jay hummed pridefully, popping the piece of donut into his mouth and letting out a sound of contentment. "Wow, that's really good."
Raz nodded excitedly as he set aside another piece for Jay and then started eating the rest of the donut. "Any idea as to where Jackson is taking Logan on the honeymoon or has he not thought that far?" He asked, licking off the glaze from his lips
Jay popped the piece into his mouth, mumbling around it. "Nah, he definitely has, I just have no idea what it is. I took a shot in the dark last time, I really don't know."
"then I guess it'll be a mystery for all of us until they actually go on the honeymoon." He rested his head against Jay's shoulder, pressing a sweet, sugary kiss ti his cheek. "Thabknyou by the way.I've missed this, just going out and enjoying ourselves."
"Aw, don't thank me, my prince. I'm your husband, it's my job to take you out and treat you nice. You can't thank me for doing my job, you'll spoil me." He chuckled, nudging into his affection.
"and do you not deserve to be spoiled as well, my king?" Raz asked, pressing another to Jay's temple. "Besides, if I don't spoil you, who will, hm?"
