You're right.

[Just give him a minute. Just-- Just a minute. To wind his arms around Adrian's waist and bury his face against the dhampir's neck. The gratitude -- and his need -- overwhelms him at times, but he doesn't have to pay mind to it. He's a dab hand at refusing to acknowledge all other emotions, after all; why should this be any different?

With a regretful parting squeeze, Trevor takes a step back. With a steadying breath, he motions for Adrian to be on his way if he so chooses. He'll be following the dhampir upstairs to change, in any case.

[Adrian's removed the jacket, at least. If that's as comfortable as he's willing to get at the moment, Trevor won't question it (tempting though it is to suggest the leggings again), and he won't allow Adrian to remain so lonely there on the couch either. The jacket was nice while it lasted, as was the bowtie, but Trevor makes quick work of them both, drapes them over the coffee table and toes his shoes off before flopping down beside Adrian.

Trevor has a tendency to do that. Flop. It's indelicate at best, but Adrian's never complained, so--

The current sprawl finds him cradled in the corner of the couch, looking every bit a big inviting pillow for Adrian to climb over. Though all the actual invitation he gets is an extended hand and a vague beckoning motion of Trevor's fingers.

Come here.

[Trevor will take this. Really and truly, he'll bear it without complaint. Adrian spoils them, and so he deserves to be spoiled, particularly when his spoiling involves something as simple as curling up on the couch with-- Hell, is this smooth jazz? Trevor doesn't know, but...

It's soothing, and Adrian's weight on his chest is comforting, even if he takes forever to curl himself up into the tightest ball possible, and Trevor doesn't understand how in God's name that could be comfortable. And damn his hair, Trevor's gone a few hours too long without a strand to stroke. It's slow going with one hand, but he manages after some careful maneuvering, loosens the tie around the bun, leaves the braids, and gingerly combs his fingers through the veritable cornsilk that tumbles across Adrian's back.

That's better; sinking a hand through and down Adrian's hair, everything is infinitely better. And just in case the dhampir has any ideas about escape, Trevor drapes his other arm securely around Adrian's shoulders. Holding may be the wrong word; cradling seems more accurate, particularly considering how Trevor shifts his legs to settle Adrian more comfortably between them.

It could turn salacious. Would, if Trevor weren't reminding himself that this is enough. Though, surprisingly, it is. He could drift off to sleep like this, stay here all night, wrapped around Adrian and shockingly content. Because this...

Monsters are verifiable; Trevor's seen and slain hundreds of them. Angels? Miracles? Those, he's yet to meet. So for all that Trevor's been raised in the light of the Lord, he's never been sure of the notion of Heaven. But laying here, trapped beneath Adrian's weight, lost in his softness and his scent-- This is the closest to Heaven he's ever felt.
