[He pulls you closer, a hand on your side, the other shoved under both your heads as another pillow. Funnily enough, he actually swings a leg over you just to make sure you both flush against each other.]
[That only happens maybe an hour and a half later, when there's a knock on Nico's door: one of the Zashiki-Warashi, bringing food and a gentle reminder that he'll have to roll out three hours after that.
Squirming a bit, then sighing before kissing you on the cheek and pushing himself up. There's food for the both of you.
[ He's going to get up too, if you're leaving then he's got to get ready to go as well. Scrolling through his phone for a booking back to Falner after your port.
He's nuzzling at your neck briefly before he finds something, grabbing some of the food on the tray. ]
I'm telling the Hounds and Mamita when I get back. S'that okay?
[ If he's silent and blinking, it's because this has never come up before, nor does it really matter... His family loves you, and has been supportive since they learned of it. ]
Speaking if Xi Wang... What kind of cigarettes does she like? Or her favorite drink?
[ Kaz owes her a lot by his own estimation. Plus he'd like to think they are friends, if not two people with the common goal of seeing Nico fulfill his dreams. ]
[It doesn't take him all that long: he just checks his bag one last time after suiting up, and then sweeps the room to see if he's forgetting anything important.
Once he's done, he's rounding back to you with a smile. It's that kind of smile that he puts on when he's trying to show that he's all right when a part of him isn't.]

[Now rolling over, to bury his face into your chest. You smell so good.]
...Almost as good as you letting me sleep in your arms for about another hour.

[Blinking a moment, though.]
You don't think your grandmother will mind... right?
[She's kind of scary.]
no subject
[ It will be, trust him. ]
She's never not liked you, anyway.

[Huhu, food time.]

What's wrong?

[Blinking right back.]
Just, your family's approval means a lot to me.

Y-yeah... Same here.

Kissing you on the forehead. He can't help it.]
Great. Guess, uh, I should text them...
[Getting that phone now.]
no subject
Lemme know when you want to go, so I can take time off... Um... Seeing as I'm asking for your hand in marriage, it should be soon right?
no subject
[Even if Tian is pretty damned busy. Xi Wang is a fair woman.]

I'll have to find a nice mix just for her, then. I'd take you back to Tian myself, you know... But there's stuff waiting for us Hounds too.
no subject
[He smiles, and leans in to kiss Kaz on the forehead.]
Things are different now, but that doesn't change what matters, eh? I'll still find time to see you when I can.
[And you'll do the same, as you have now.]
no subject
[ Tactile puppy that he is, he does love waking up to you. ]
But yeah, there's time now. Lots of it.
[ He glances at the clock, thinking 'It'd be great if you could stay another hour.' but it's almost time. ]
no subject
When he breaks away, his voice is husky.]
I should go and get ready properly.
no subject
Mmh, okay.
[ It really shouldn't shock you that your kisses short his brain out. ]

I guess I'm good to go.
[Goodbyes are hard.]
