Suite 518/520, Monday morning

[demonbelthazor]

Bel awoke a little disoriented (to say the least). He was clinging tightly to Anders, and Phoebe was on the other side of the bed doing the same thing. His head ached a little from residual sugar crash.

Then he remembered waking up five or six years old Saturday morning. Going off and searching for Phoebe when she wandered off. Returning that evening for dinner and . . . snuggles.

The next day he and Phoebe had snuck over to Wilson and Phale's, where he'd talked to Blair and threatened the fish and let Marie borrow his powers until Anders came to collect them.

With a groan, Bel rolled over and pulled the covers over his head.

Phoebe made a soft whimper as the covers moved. "No moving. No classes today."

[demonbelthazor]

"Good," Bel mumbled. "Don't have to leave room."

[sensethevisions]

"Staying in bed all day sounds like a good plan."

It was possible the events of the weekend hadn't penetrated her brain yet.

"Noooooo," Anders protested in a muffled voice, "where'd my snuggles go?"

[demonbelthazor]

Bel winced and elbowed Anders.

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe made a muffled noise and wrapped her arms around whichever person was closest to her.

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Which would be Anders, who snuggled back while scowling and poking at Bel with his foot.

"Wait . . . you guys're normal size again!"

[demonbelthazor]

"Don't remind me I wasn't," Bel grumbled, rubbing his forehead.

[sensethevisions]

And that would be when Phoebe started remembering parts of the weekend.

"Oh goddess," she moaned, hiding her face.

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Anders laughed and moved to put an arm around each of them. "Nothing to be embarrassed about. You guys were frakking adorable."

So not mentioning the pictures. Nope.

[demonbelthazor]

"I was never really that small," Bel said, still in denial.

[sensethevisions]

"Gahs... the things I did... or ate..."

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

The things Anders had on camera . . .

Trying his best to keep a straight face, he said, "If it's any help, I promise not to hold any of what you did as little kids against you."

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe held tightly to both of them as she tried to get the giggles under control. "Must have been traumatic to go to bed with us... and then woke with us as much younger versions." She shook her head. "And whomever put the bright idea into my four year old self to climb trees and ropes and jump into the pond..."

"I was not happy when I woke up on Saturday," Anders grumbled. He had absolutely no shame about pouting at Bel over his shoulder for the complete lack of sympathy he was getting from the boyfriend.

[demonbelthazor]

"It was just a dream, never happened," Bel said. Yep, still in denial.

[sensethevisions]

"But, love, you were so nice and shimmering me places, not letting go of me unless there was someone you trusted there..." She didn't mention the blushes or the shyness from when she kept hugging him the first night. "And wow did you want to hurt someone for getting me wet..."

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"And you shared your hamburger with me," Anders added. Then, grinning, he couldn't resist pointing out, "And you totally said you loved me."

[demonbelthazor]

Bel jerked his head up. "I did not!" he said.

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe bit her lip and then looked up at him.

"Sweetheart... I heard you..."

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"See? It wasn't just me." Anders still wasn't mentioning the note in his wallet. "It's okay, I won't tell anyone," he added mischievously.

He promptly pulled the covers over his head so neither one of them could see him grinning.

[demonbelthazor]

"I was five!" Bel flailed in protest.

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe leaned over to kiss him. "It's okay, sweetheart. I'm not upset." She smiled. "Just don't go around telling anyone else. I'll share you with Anders, but that's where I draw the line."

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Anders smirked under the covers and reached over to run his fingers across Bel's chest. "It's okay, baby," he said, choosing the words deliberately. "I love you too."

[demonbelthazor]

Bel smacked Anders's hand away again. "Shut. Up," he growled.
