James woke to the soft tapping of keys to find Connor staring at his laptop screen. “Connor?”

“Mmmm?”

James sat up and tugged Connor against him, sighing softly at the screen full of graphs and monitors and a tiny picture of the ADD. “They are capable of looking after things, Connor.”

“I know, I just... this would be the perfect opportunity for Philip to plant something, James. A virus or... I just need to keep an eye on it.”

James kissed him. “Making yourself tired won't help, Connor. Set an alarm if any vital readings change and get some rest.”

Great use of the prompt. Connor's worry is understandable, but James is right; he needs his rest.

Glad you liked it. *nods* True on both points, but I'm sure the boys will win.

Thanks for reading.

Knowing what we do of Philip, Connor is probably quite justified in his concern but hey, he's got a brand new husband there in his bed who might be getting a bit chilly and in need of warmth... just sayin'... Well done.

Hee, I'm sure the boys kept each other warm earlier ;)

Thanks for reading.

That's dedication :D

*nods* And on his wedding night too ;)

Thanks for reading.

Really Connor! Just set the alarms. There's such a thing as too much dedication to duty when you're in bed with Lester.

LOL. Connor's very protective over his ADD, but you're right, there are 'better things' he could be doing ;)

Thanks for reading.

Connor is definitely the worrying type!

Connor is, but I'm sure he and James will be fine.

Thanks for reading.

They've made it to their honeymoon! Yes, Con, set the alarms and make sure that your webcam isn't set to 'send' either, in case the ARC get feedback they really don't want to see *G*

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-10-09 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
They have. James is looking worriedly at Connor and asking him that now ;)

Thanks for reading.

Connor needs the comfort.

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

Nice use of the prompt! I hope they do enjoy their honeymoon.

Good to know it worked. James is going to do his best to ensure they do.

Thanks for reading.

Oh, Connor, always worrying, even when he should be happy.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-10-13 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm sure Connor is happy, he just can't help worrying about Burton.

Thanks for reading.

The wariness is understandable.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-03-03 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Connor can't relax, not even on his honeymoon.

Thanks for reading.
