AU with drawnhere - After the fire

[Peter only half focuses on the fear he feels from Jordan. His mate has a dangerous job, sometimes he gets scared and Peter learned to ignore these for the sake of his leftover sanity. Though this time it goes on and gets more intense, it isn't just a scare. It's more than that.

The wolf swallows and moves from the couch to quickly get his clothes, just to check out what can it be. And then he feels his whole body burning.

Burning.

Peter's knees almost give out at the overwhelming sensation and it takes him a second to realize it's not him. It's Jordan. He hesitates before he finally moves again, because if this means what he thinks it does, he's not sure if he's ready. But his body practically moves without his will and he's out of the house in no time.

As Peter runs he tries to cling to what he can feel through the bond, just to lose it. For a second. There is nothing there... and Peter feels his mind shutting down. He's only half aware that he's running and the next thing he knows he's opening the door of Derek's loft with too much force. Peter barely knows why he's actually here, but then he spots Jordan and he's wondering if this is real of not.]

Jordan..?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Peter grunts as Jordan moves, his limbs tense for a second. He'll probably never get rid of this paranoia of something is out to get him. But he settles fast at the touch, looking up at his mate.]

The curse is that I'll never forget it and it defines my life. [He whispers quietly, maybe being a bit overwhelmed by Jordan. His heartbeat picks up a little even and damn it, Peter hates being in love this much. He puts his hands on Jordan's thighs, stroking slowly.]

I warn you over and over again and you're still here... I start to think you're just as insane as me at this point. [He smiles a little and leans over to kiss Jordan, sliding an arm around his waist to pull him closer.] I'm glad you're here.

Yeah, trauma does that to a person. I'll never forget the war. I'll never forget what happened to me tonight. [He leans in and nuzzles Peter's neck because he can. No one else can get that close.] It doesn't mean I'm going to run from it.

Maybe I am. Love makes you crazy. [He wouldn't stay if Peter did something truly evil, something unforgivable but so far, all he's seen he can live with.] I'm glad I'm here with you.

I'm not exactly running either. [Peter mutters, nuzzling back. He's not running, he's not. He's preparing so something like this won't happen again.]

This crazy? [He chuckles a little, pressing his forehead against Jordan's.] So stay. Until... death do us apart. [He can't help but smile a bit sadly at that, talking about dramatic. Then he moves to kiss Jordan again.] I want to make love to you.

I know. [If Peter was going to run then he would have long before now.]

This crazy. [He smiles lovingly at Peter.] I do. [Dramatic but true. He's staying and Peter's going to have to accept it.] Be gentle. I don't have much energy right now.

You will know when I'm ready. [Peter smirks, because oh, he has plans. And they are invincible, he's prepared.]

I'd never hurt you, you know that. [He smiles and kisses into Jordan's neck. Peter wants to bite him, but he won't. He knows that his mate is shaken and maybe weak. Maybe he's still recovering.] I can wait until you're more ready for it.

I'm buying you a ring anyway. As soon as you're ready we're going married. [After dying like that Jordan doesn't want to waste any more time. He's going to get married and they'll be together.]

I know. [A day of rest and he'll be ready for sexual intimacy. He needs more time.] Thank you. I'm still wiped out

I'll try to settle my things soon then. [Peter smirks, utterly fond of his mate and thinking just how cute he can be sometimes.] Any ideas of the wedding? Guests? Decoration? Honeymoon? I'm afraid you already have the whole thing planned out in your head.

I can see. [He smiles a little leaning in to kiss his mate again. Of course he will give him all the time he needs.] Can't rest because of me? [Peter asks in a sigh, stroking Jordan's waist absently.]

I'd appreciate it. [He's enthusiastic about their future. It does make him adorable] No, I haven't gotten that far. Though, just in general I'd like something small. My family has to be there. If you're okay with leaving California we can go somewhere quiet and private for our honeymoon.

You're restless and I feel it. Even exhausted I still want to take care of you. [He sighs against Peter's lips s they kiss.] I want to make sure you're okay.

[The wolf chuckles low in his throat, listening to Jordan.] Something small, with close family. Maybe on a sunny autumn day. [He laughs again, looking down, because listening to himself just makes him feel a bit pathetic. But what is pathetic in being strong enough to take a mate like Jordan?] I'm fine with leaving somewhere far. Maybe we could go as far as Europe even. See how the woods are in those mountains.

[He closes his eyes for a second though.] I just don't feel like sleeping. It's- well, I suppose I'm still afraid something will happen. That if I go to sleep I wake up without you. You burned alive and the last time those close to me burned... [He frowns, shaking his head, laughing a little. It feels so weak to talk about it like this, without swearing any revenge and hissing in anger.]

Germany is beautiful. I spent time there when I was in the Army before I was deployed to Afghanistan. [Jordan is so happy they're talking about this, actually talking instead of making vague plans and promises.] We could try England or Whales too.

[He runs his fingers through Peter's hair again.] I'll be here. This isn't a dream. I promise you. I'll be here when you wake up and every day after.

I was thinking of Germany too. [Peter nods quietly, listening to the excited heartbeat of Jordan fondly.] But it could be a trip, if you want it all.

[The wolf is eying something on the sheets, not looking up at the other.] And then I lose six years of my life, just to wake up to be alone. [Not entirely alone, of course, he still had his niece and nephew... which was his last chance for revenge. Peter sighs again as if that could get rid of that stone stuck his chest. He whispers mostly to himself.] Of all the things why burning...

No, just Germany is fine. The less traveling we do the more time we get to spend in bed together. [He is excited. He's starting a life with Peter.]

I don't know how to make you accept this is real. I'll be alive tomorrow, I'll be with you. [He nuzzles Peter's neck and kisses over his heart.] I'm here. I'm alive. I'm not leaving you.

In a house deep in the mountains? [In luxury, of course, but still away from most people and the noise and scents, near nature. Peter finds himself maybe a bit excited over it too.]

[Peter swallows, nuzzling back at Jordan too.] I guess I have to take my chances, don't I? So you can rest at least. [He sighs, finally looking at his mate.] I'm going to trust you and if you lied to me I'll find you dead or alive... [He chuckles, knowing he sounds stupid, but he's not sure he can keep it together if he wakes up again into a nightmare. Peter sighs and scoops Jordan up to lay him back down the bed.]

If there's a hot tub, I'm fine with that. [It sounds like just the sort of escape they both need after this insanity.]

I'll be here. When we wake up you can make love to me. [He curls up on his side and presses himself tight against Peter. He's not going anywhere. Peter will wake up to his mate, like he does every morning.] I love you.

There will be, I'll make sure. I handle this if you handle the wedding. [Because Peter isn't exactly sure he can do that. Not because he couldn't organize the best wedding in town, but he's not sure he can do his own.]

[Peter pulls Jordan close, maybe a little desperate. Those words still sting, but not as much as they used to. He just nods and kisses his mate's forehead.] Sleep. And dream about our honeymoon. I'll... try to do the same.

That sounds like a fair trade. [Jordan will handle it, though he'll ask for Peter's input. He wants a wedding that both of them enjoy.]

That's good. [Peter's anxiety is a little bit better, enough that Jordan isn't distracted when he falls back asleep.]

[Of course Peter won't exclude himself, but he'll be glad he's not the one having to deal with it all.

Peter just smiles a little and nuzzles close to Jordan, so he can smell him even if he happens to fall asleep. And finally he does.]

[This time when he wakes up, Jordan feels much better and he's still pressed against Peter.

He nuzzles his neck and kisses his skin gently, trying to wake him up gently.]

[Peter gives an alarmed sound as he jerks awake, for a moment utterly lost. His limbs feel like he ran a marathon the night before, and maybe he did. Though he settles quickly, turning his head to nuzzle into Jordan's hair, taking a deep breath. Yes, he's there and he's warm and loud and alive. He kept his promise. So Peter just puts his arm tighter around him, pulling Jordan closer. His voice is rough and sleepy as he speaks.]

Did you dream?

Shhhs, shhhs, it's just me.

[He runs his hands over Peter's arms, trying to calm him down from that quick jolt of fear. There's no reason for it. Jordan is clearly fine.]

No, I didn't. I slept great.

Thank god. [Peter can't help sighing, closing his eyes for a second. But he's not letting go of Jordan.]

Good. Good... [He mutters, his hand reaching up to brush against Jordan's cheek.] Are you alright?

I feel better. [He leans into his touch, sighing softly then smiling.] I could use something to eat though.

[After all that sleep Jordan is ready for something to eat and then maybe some research into what he is or more of letting Peter take care of him.]

[Peter can tell Jordan is better. His scent, his heartbeat it's all better. Peter can almost tell that Jordan is ready to face today and the future again. Maybe a little bit still tired, but he's alive and Peter is awfully glad for that.]

That was my next question. [He smiles.] Breakfast in bed?

That sounds like a great idea. [He leans up and kisses Peter softly.] Do you want any help?

[He figures the answer is no. Peter will want to take care of him and Jordan can sit back and enjoy being spoiled by his mate.]

Maybe. [Peter smirks, tilting his head before he kisses back.] Just stay here and look dashing, baby. That'd be a great help.

[He kisses Jordan again and pulls away to prepare some breakfast for them.]
