[Alhaitham is quick to cuddle the older man in close to his side, his fingertips travelling idly over warm, sweat-damp skin and his head tilting against Kaveh's hair. He closes his eyes and just breathes, sinking into the novel but entirely comfortable sensation of having Kaveh with him like this, and only after a few minutes have gone by does he move to press a kiss to Kaveh's hairline.
He doesn't speak. He's decided he's going to let Kaveh have the first word, just in case anything he might say spooks the man out of expressing his own thoughts.
As for Alhaitham, though... he doesn't think he's ever felt this kind of contentment with another person before. It's one thing to find solace and peace in books and something else entirely to be lying boneless and sated next to your lover. Something he had never really given much consideration to before.
But something he is definitely going to be thinking more about in the future.]
