Another day of pain and annoyance. Izzy lays out on the sofa, cursing yesterday's dinner choice as Stede flutters around him, trying and failing to help. "Just fuck off Stede. Nothing you can do to help." As soon as it left his mouth, Izzy knows it sounded harsher than he meant.

Stede folds and climbs onto the couch behind Izzy, trying not to jostle him too much. "Just, like this." Izzy says as Stede wraps his arms around him and Izzy places Stede's hands on his stomach. "Your hands are cold, its nice." Stede rubs Izzy's aching belly gently until Izzy falls asleep. End
