Pairing: Arthur/Eames

Word count: 100

Carol prompt: Deck the Halls

Summary: As Louis C.K. once said, "The meal isn't over when I'm full. The meal is over when I hate myself."

Arthur's belt is digging into his waist. In hindsight, it wasn't wise, eating and drinking that much.

 

He contemplates the crudity of unbuckling in public, before deciding: fuck it. If it tanks his burgeoning relationship with Eames, they were never going to work out anyway.

 

But Eames simply says, "Thank Christ," and follows suit. "I need to get horizontal, asap."

 

"God, I hope you don't mean that in a sexual sense. I'll puke if we try anything."

 

Eames laughs, then groans slightly. "Come on. Let's go to bed and roll one another into the recovery position."

 

Arthur grins. "True romance."
