âYa know Iâm not the most brilliant warlock out there⊠Iâm mostly handsomeâ he said with a chuckle, nudging Orion softly enough to not cause him any pain. How he had managed to be friends with him, sometimes he wasnât sure. Tucker guessed it was more persistence and patience, and knowing when to give Orion his space. Despite that rocky start, he couldnât imagine having to live there without the ice witch. âI can be murderous too. Ya donât mess with my boys without consequencesâ he said solemnly before smiling at him. âAnd I call always say ya rubbed on me. Ya are looking quite cuddly in this bed if ya ask meâ he said with a grin.Â
Tucker went to held Orionâs hand for a second, and squeezed it hard. âI know. But ya know how it is. Thereâs lil, almost no line between a scar and a fatal woundâŠâ he said, looking down, and then back again at his friend, and his blue, sharp eyes. âYeah⊠yaâd look better in my bed,â he said with a wink. They had never done anything, but that didnât stop Tucker from being a bit flirty from time to time. âIn all honesty⊠this one canât be that comfortable. Donât ya miss yar own bed?â he asked, raising his eyebrows. âYar own space? Yar own⊠I donât know⊠deadly weapons on yar nightstand?â he joked.Â
The Russian only rolled his eyes at Tuckerâs joke. He couldnât really say no, but his friendâs self-confidence in self-proclaiming himself as handsome was a bit of a stretch. âYouâre lucky I can put up with you at this point, or Iâd freeze you over myself,â Orion grunted, pushing himself upright. âOh, Iâm sure you could be dangerous, but letâs leave the brooding stuff for me, yeah? You canât have everything, Tucker, or what do I have left?â he teased, wiggling his brows a bit at his friend. The dark-haired man snorted at his best friendâs next response. âOh really? What are you, twelve? Iâm pretty sure I havenât cuddled with you in bed since we were students,â he shot back.
âIâm sure I can tell the difference, Tucker. Iâve had my fair share of scars and such, no?â He trailed off though at his friendâs flirtatious remark. Usually, Orion would ignore it, but couldnât he have his own fun with flirting? âIâd look good in any bed; you just havenât had the luxury of my company yet,â he chuckled. The ice witch only shrugged, squeezing on his friendâs hand again. âSure. Though I donât have any sort of weapons on my nightstand. But I always found that what matters most is the company, you know? So this isnât too bad at all,â the Russian teased; this was perhaps the most flirtatious heâd ever be.
