Summary
"Just leave me alone, James. Go take your incessant talking elsewhere. Not in the mood for your smiling face right now."
Alex's voice was muffled, but it also sounded scratchy. James could tell immediately he was hiding and hurting. Still wasn't a reason for Alex to be so petulant.
"Absolutely not. Get up off that couch, Alex."
"Nope."
"I can make you," James said lacing his voice with a light touch of the steel he occasionally needed to breakthrough to his stubborn partner.
"Didn't I ask you to leave already? Do you need me to say, please? Please, James, get the fuck off my bus and leave me the hell alone."
"I will spank your ass, Alex for this behavior. Race tomorrow or not."

Summary
"James, you might want to get to Alex's bus as soon as you can."
"Why? Isn't he with the Team?"
"I just watched him walk back from his box to the hauler, all by himself. Then get on his scooter a few minutes later and head towards the bus lot. For someone who showed so much emotion just a bit ago and should be very happy with his run today, he looked absolutely miserable."

James sat them both down at the kitchen island, pieces of blank white paper and ink pens in front of them.
"I want you to make me a list of ten things you like about yourself, things that make you happy."

Summary
When James came out of the bathroom following his shower, he just paused and stared.
The two loves of his life were curled up around each other, Alex holding Pato like his own personal teddy bear. Both were already asleep, Alex making snuffling noises into Pato's hair on occasion, the cold he had still congesting him pretty bad.
There had been a lot of cuddling happening in their house over the last two weeks. First it had been Pato, who'd come back from overseas with a nasty cold that knocked him down for about a week. And since neither himself or Alex really took a whole lot of precautions, his other partner was the next to get sick.

Summary
“Alex, he needs to rest. He won’t listen to me but maybe he will listen to you,” Pato said coming into the great room, having just come from the gym and letting James know he was back.
Rolling over from his spot on the couch, Alex looked up, “I tried earlier, Pato. He told me he will rest when he returns from Road Atlanta before he heads to Austin.”
“He needs to rest now. Those circles under his eyes are not healthy. His skin is so pale, kind of like yours baby,” Pato said sitting next to Alex on the couch, rubbing over his stomach and down his cheek. “Headache?”
Sighing, Alex said, “Yeah. And I know. Not sure how we are going to get James to listen. He’s only home for a day, maybe a half day more if we insist.”
“Then that’s what we do. Dom our Dom. Don’t give him a choice. He does it to us, we turn it back on him.”

Summary
“It's my birthday, Alex.”
“I know that, James. The meal I cooked for you and the wake-up sex we gave you this morning made that pretty obvious. But Pato won’t tell me what dessert is,” Alex complained as they made their way from the proper dining room and back to the kitchen itself where Pato had already headed.
“And your meal was very lovely, babe. That chicken marsala rivals anything I have had recently. Pato got the dessert around this afternoon when you went to work-out. But it still needs to be plated.”
“Umm, do you want me to serve you? I can, I guess. You just have to tell me what I am getting.”
“You're my plate. Dessert is on you tonight.”
“I'm your what?”
