Chapter Text
The Sun is warm upon his face as he slowly comes to. Robert's body is warm next to him. He smiles, sitting up, thinking about how lucky he is, and how stupid he had been. He could have had this for years. But no matter, he has him now. And he will make the most of it. He watches his chest rise and fall, traces the freckles that he adores. His bangs move in his face. Since when had the gotten that long? And why was it blonde?! Fuck. He turns around, gazing at his reflection. The face of Edward Hyde stares back. He startles, falling off the bed and crying out as his bones crack, limbs shifting back to his regular form. What the fuck?!
Robert jerks up and stares at him. "Henry?" he asks, bleary eyed and confused," darling, what are you doing on the floor?" His brow pinches in concern. Oh no! He's worrying him! "Don't make him worried Jekyll, you daft idiot we'll figure it out later, I have a theory," Hyde hisses from the mirror. Henry pushes his fears away, smiling up at his boyfriend as he says," oh, I accidentally rolled off the bed!" Robert laughs, face softening. He reaches out a hand, which Henry takes, and helps him up. He climbs back into the bed, snuggling close to Robert immediately.
Robert puts an arm around him and presses a kiss to his forehead, smiling. Henry tucks his face into Robert's neck. He lets out a content little sigh, determined to bask in his embrace for as long as he can. Robert curls around him, running a hand through his hair before gently resting it on the nape of his neck, causing a little shiver to run through him. Suddenly, they hear alarm bells ringing, and the sound of whistles. Henry falls out of the bed again with an oof. Are they being arrested!?!The noise passes. It would seem that the police are busy this morning.
Robert sighs and says, " well, at least we don't have to go into the station for statements now, sounds like they'll be occupied for a while." Henry gets up of the floor before admitting sheepishly, " honestly I had forgotten that they asked for statements today. " Robert laughs and pulls the covers back again, Henry presses a shy kiss to his lips as they settle once more. Robert grins at him, and he beams back as Robert pulls him into another kiss, longer this time, holding him close.
