One night was like another. Cid had taken his nightly shower and was ready to go to bed, towel wrapped around his waist as he exited the bathroom and approached his bed.

One night was usually like another, but it wasn't as such ever since he had started dating Rygdea. His usually empty bed was taken over--almost in its entirety--by the younger man, who looked utterly content to take up as much space as he possibly could. Cid stared down at him with a look that would be classified as disdain if he really was that upset at it; at this point, this was just another night.

"Rygdea."

"....nn."

"Move."

"'m comfy."

"Unless you would like me to use you as a mattress, I suggest that you move over."

The brunet cracked open an eye, looking at the being that dared to ask him to move.

"Oh. You're naked. Alrighty, you can use me as a mattress."

He got a harsh shove for that, and very nearly toppled off the other side of the bed. Even despite that, he was bubbling over with laughter, eyes smiling up at the less amused Brigadier General standing across from him. It was expected behavior, bordering on routine, but it didn't exactly get old.

"Can't blame a guy for tryin'," Rygdea chuckled as he scooted back onto the bed, stretching out. This time, though, on his own side. "You're no fun, Cid. No fun at all."

Cid resisted the urge to hit him with the still-damp towel before placing it aside, climbing into bed next to him. "Someone has to be the adult out of the two of us," he muttered, shifting a little but not moving much otherwise as the younger of them scooted closer and draped an arm around his chest. The two lay there in silence, Rygdea leaning in to place a few kisses along Cid's jaw but otherwise remaining still.

"Ya look tired. Go to sleep," Rygdea murmured before yawning himself. Looking over at him, Cid couldn't help but be a little surprised. After all, Rygdea barely ever simply wanted to go to sleep once getting into bed each night. "Yeah, yeah," the Captain said with a roll of his eyes, noticing the surprised look. "I'm bein' nice. Besides, I'll just molest ya in the morning."

"...charming."

One night really wasn't always like another, but as long as Rygdea was with him, Cid didn't really care.
