Tailor Made, Just For You [Raegan/ Kori]

[ode]

Kori slid his head aboce the water and, resting his head against the side of the tub, slowly drifted off.

[praiseofblood]

Raegan waited around a bit for his mate to re--emerge, but eventually he just put the food in the refrigerator and getting ready to go to bed.

[ode]

Kori continued to sleep, head rested on the side of the tub mindless of the cooling water.

[praiseofblood]

Raegan sat up in their bed, feeling like shit. Did he do something to make Kori not want to be with him?

[ode]

Kori awoke an hour or so later freezing. getting out of the water, he dried off and wrapped the towel aroudn his waist before walking back into the bedroom. He was rather surprised to see his make wide awake. "Can't sleep?"

[praiseofblood]

Raegan jumped a little, surprised that Kori had entered the room.

[ode]

Kori smiled a bit at the reaction and moved further into the room. Sitting at the end of the bed, he ran a hand through his hair and sighed. "I'm sorry I've been such a jerk today."

[praiseofblood]

Raegan looked at the male, his legs criss-crossed as he bit his lip. "Was it...something I did?" he asked hesitantly.

[ode]

Kori shook his head. "No, I just... I feel sometimes that you could do better than me. I know that sounds cliche', Raegan. But I mean it. I don't feel like I make you happy."

[praiseofblood]

Raegan's brow furrowed in confusion. "What?" he asked, frowning. "What in the name of Blanserta would ever make you think that?!" he asked, frowning.

[ode]

Kori stared at the floor and shrugged, "This morning and... we don't share many interests and... Mate's should share things. The only interest we really share is fashion. I just... I can name a dozen guys off the top of my head who would be better for you than me. Plus I'm so much older than you and-" he cut hiimself off and sighed.

[praiseofblood]

Raegan sat up, moving towards Kori and making the male look at him. "Look at me." he said, holding both sides of Kori's face. "Do you not want me?" he asked, slightly hurt by the male's doubt of their bond.

[ode]

"I do want you," Kori said passionately, eyes seeking his mate's. "But what I want shouldn't matter in comparison to what you need."

[praiseofblood]

"You are my mate." Raegan frowned. "Not anyone else, not your brother, or any other of the dozen males you can think of. I need you."

[ode]

Kori leaned into his mate and buried his face into Raegan's neck. "I love you..." he whispered.
