in the log cabin lodge ian and mickey fall asleep near the warm fire all tangled in blankets and every limb wrapped around another limb kmf
ian wakes up in the middle of the night to find the fire burning low, and it’s kind of cold out so he figures he should get up to restart it but mickey’s head’s on his chest and his arm’s over ian’s waist and his legs are securely tucked through ian’s. ian doesn’t really know how to get free without waking him, and mickey looks so peaceful that he just doesn’t have it in him.
but he doesn’t want him to get cold either, so he tries to gently extricate himself but mickey presses closer to him in his sleep, wraps himself more tightly around ian, and ian sighs and ruffles mickey’s hair and mickey snuffles in his sleep and ian’s resultant laughter wakes him up
and mickey’s kinda grumpy but kinda happy and peaceful, and hes like, “the fuck do you think you’re going?” and ian’s like “shh babe go back to sleep, i just need to get the fire going again”
and mickey nuzzles against him even more and mutters “you’re warm enough” and ian sighs because he knows he’s really not going anywhere
and ian may be a little cold that night but it’s worth it, really, to have mickey laying on him so sated and warm ^.^)
