Tailor Made, Just For You [Raegan/ Kori]

[ode]

Kori leaned into the room, laughing. "You make wonderful clothes, you are an excellent brother, you fuck like a God and now you play piano? Is there anything you don't do?"

[praiseofblood]

Raegan looked up to see his mate fully dressed and smiled a bit, stopping his fingers on the keys and making ready to stand. "What?" he asked, shaking his head

[ode]

"Nothing. Listen, baby, I need to head back to my ship for a few hours. I have seriously got to get some work done if I hope to keep my job," he said as he walked into the room. Dropping a kiss on his mate's lips, he said, "Love you?"

[praiseofblood]

Raegan placed a hand on his mate's cheek, kissing him back. "Yeah, love you too." he said as he pulled away.

[ode]

Kori's brow furrowed at the odd reaction. It seemed so odd for Raegan to pull away after he said such, but he didn't question it and headed out the door and to his ship.

[praiseofblood]

Raegan went to sit back at his piano, biting his lip as his fingers rested on the keys. He had a mate that loved him, and soon a son...yet...

[ode]

Kori felt that his mate was unsure and didn't know how to take it. It made him feel like he wasn't a good mate. That he wasn't making Raegan happy. SIghing, he plopped down in front of his main computer and started in on some long over due work.

[praiseofblood]

Raegan just sort of let his thoughts fade as he played his instrument. Over time, he realized he was being just a bit foolish, because who wouldn't consider themselves lucky to have a mate like Kori? He played for a while more, before biting his lip. He wished his parents could see them all, grown up and happy and--Raegan's fingers stopped. Today was the anniversary of their death. That was why he was being so depressive.

Raegan headed from the house and to the florist to pick up a pair of black earth roses.

[ode]

Kori focused intently on his work, sensing that his mate needed a bit of time alone today.

[praiseofblood]

Raegan had headed out to his parents' memorial, cleaning off the site and placing down their roses before sitting for a while, like he did every year.

[ode]

Kori finished his work with surprising speed and rose only to pause. Perhaps his mate needed more time alone...

[praiseofblood]

Raegan sighed as he stood to head home to cook dinner. Kori would probably be home soon.

[ode]

ori slowly made his way to Raegan's house. Not quite comfortable calling it home just yet. Stopping by a market, he picked up a good wine before continuing. He hoped to the heaven's his mate was in a better mood.

[praiseofblood]

Raegan was cooking dinner, his hair tied back into a ponytail and his sleeves rolled up as he hummed.

[ode]

Deciding against knocking, he entered the unlocked door and immediately followed the scents to the kitchen. Placing a hesitant smile upon his face, he went over to sit the wine on the counter. "Good evening, Raegan."
