Wise men say
Thor held Bruce close under the soft moonlight, swaying slightly, calming down his boyfriend.
Only fools rush in
He ran his hand through his soft curls, burying his nose and inhaling the smell of his shampoo. He could feel Bruce shaking slightly.
But I can’t help
‘Bruce.’ He whispered, just enough so that Bruce could hear him. Bruce brought his head out of the crook of Thor’s neck, his big brown eyes staring into Thor’s blue ones.
Falling in love with you.
‘Love. Come here.’ Thor slipped one hand around Bruce waist, and the other gripped the smaller ones hand to arrange him in a dancing position. Bruce glanced at him softly.
Shall I stay
He slowly started moving his feet, Bruce glancing down at his own to try and follow along with Thor. His cape hugged his body as Thor spun slowly, Bruce following him, smiling a little bit.
Would it be a sin
He rubbed the back of Bruce’s hand, his calloused thumb grazing Bruce’s soft skin. As he stepped back, Bruce followed, keeping his eyes mostly glued to his feet. Thor lowered his forehead to meet Bruce’s, forcing him to look up.
If I can’t help
As they danced around, the worldly slowly faded away from them. Their eyes were locked. Thor just wants to stay like this forever, getting lost in his boyfriends’ brown eyes. Everything seemed peaceful for a moment; Thanos, the Avengers, Loki… they were forgotten as they danced under the stars.
Falling in love with you.
It was the first time in a while that they let themselves do this. To let go, to stop thinking, worrying about how the public might perceive them. To give themselves a moment to be themselves fully. Not a god of thunder and a rage monster, but two ordinary people. Just spinning and dancing around one another.
Like a river flows
They were pulled back to reality when a rumble of thunder echoed across the universe. They looked up, seeing storm clouds form overhead. A flash of lightening lit up the night sky. As Thor looked back, he could see flashes of lighting crawling up his arm, some jumping quickly to Bruce.
Surely to the sea
Thor looked back to his boyfriend, who was laughing quietly. He grinned slowly, watching his boyfriend giggle at his unintentional storm. ‘Thor, you’re practically glowing!’ Bruce smiled, resting his head on Thor’s shoulder. He adjusted his head so he could look up at Thor, who, in turn, was resting his head on Bruce.
Darling, so it goes
‘My apologies, Bruce. I didn’t mean to-‘ he gestured to his arm, which was drawing with raw energy. Another flash of lightening scared Bruce enough to jolt up and accidentally knock Thor on the jaw. ‘Create this storm.’
Some things are meant to be.
‘It’s ok. It’s pretty cool.’ Bruce reached out to touch the strips of light. He stroked his arm with the hand that was being held out, moving down until he touched a rather large bolt of lightening. He jumped back, Thor catching him with his remaining arm before he fell.
Take my hand
Bruce’s hands softly grazed Thor’s sleek armour, feeling the battle-worn patterns traced into it. He looked up to Thor, who was smiling down at him. His chin just grazed Bruce’s head, but his eyes were glued to him. He smiled a little, before going up on his tiptoes, lips ghosting Thor’s mouth.
Take my whole life too
Thor leaned down the rest of the way, catching Bruce’s lips in a soft kiss. It was relaxing and nice, like a homecoming. Thor took his hand from Bruce waist to cup his cheek, tilting his head to deepen the kiss. Bruce happily complied, wrapping his arms around Thor’s armour, the cold metal pressed onto his arm.
For I can’t help
When they finally pulled back, Thor rested his forehead on Bruce’s. They stared at each other for a moment, before Thor spoke. ‘I can’t imagine my life without you, Bruce.’ He whispered the words, as if he was worried that if he spoke too loud Bruce would shatter into a million pieces.
Falling in love with you.
‘I can’t imagine my life without you, either.’
