Black friday

Chapter 32 #31 Mutual Respect

The next day, when Clement woke up, he found that the person beside him got up earlier than him. Clement climbed out of the coffin, opened the door, and saw no one. It stands to reason that this weekend, Reid couldn't get up early in the morning and leave without saying goodbye, so Clement went to the lounge to take another look. As expected, the other party was sitting diligently Read a book on the sofa.

Clement said, "Spencer, you got up so early?"

Reid, still wearing Clement pajamas, said: "My biological clock is used to it."

Clement nodded, and then said to him: "It's the first time you've spent the night with me, let's go wash up first, I'll look for something."

Reid walked up to him, and Clement found out from the dark cabinet some extra toiletries that he bought when he knew Wednesday was coming and gave them to Reid.

The way the two get along in the morning is different from the Addams brothers and sisters. They don't have such a deep-rooted family understanding and living habits that are still very different after many years.

Not to mention that Clement started later than Reid, Reid naturally wouldn't rummage through other people's things, even if Clement was his lover - Reid's upbringing wouldn't allow him to do so unless they entered into a marriage contract.

Clement led Reid to the bathroom. The bathroom was huge. Clement had always enjoyed the feeling of spaciousness, and today he also enjoyed the benefits of spaciousness.

Two men who were extremely similar in size and height stood side by side in front of the sink, each holding a toothbrush, brushing their teeth and washing their face in front of the luxurious but old mirror. Reid brushes his teeth strictly according to scientific statistics, while Clement follows his mood, and he is willing to follow Reid's strict operation when he is in a good mood.

Leaving aside the little story that happened during the washing process, the two of them went out of the bathroom door and exchanged a good morning kiss with the scent of tea. Clement asked Reid's taste and made a delicious one for the two. breakfast.

This was the beginning of the morning, and when they were full of wine and food, Clement and Reid began to find things to do according to their own habits.

The place where Clement spends the most time at home is not the bedroom, but the studio and painting utensils that he misses so much. Reid also has his own affairs. His desire for knowledge and reading is far beyond ordinary people. With his super memory, he can read several books in a day. This is the result of his intentional restraint when reading literary works and his unwillingness to swallow them whole.

However, the two of them were in the same warehouse, but it wasn't good to have their own affairs, so Reid also followed Clement into the studio, and the two found their seats and sat down.

The way of getting along is different from brother and sister, but it seems to be different from ordinary couples. After starving at each other for food at noon, the two finally realized that there are too many differences in their daily life.

"Yesterday doesn't count." Reid analyzed rationally: "I was affected by Elle's resignation yesterday, so you didn't paint but played chess with me all afternoon."

Clement is also very calm: "But judging from our respective situations today, it is obvious that this is a way of life that we are passionate about and adapt to when we are alone."

Reid said: "That's right, when we wake up in the morning, we are in the most energetic stage both mentally and physically. At this time, our mood will generally be better than other times, and thinking in the morning can also benefit the brain. The cells are active, so I like to read and look up things during this time."

Clement also said: "Morning and midnight are the two time periods when my inspiration is extremely bright."

Reid is very calm: "This is what it should be. We must seize the opportunity and not let them go away in vain."

Clement deeply agrees.

The two were sitting at the dining table and talking, Clement had a glass of water in front of him, Reid used the same style and different color cup as him, and it contained coffee with double sugar.

They stared at each other with deep meaning flowing in their eyes.

Clement folded his hands and took the lead to break the silent and stagnant atmosphere: "Now I think it is necessary for us to talk about some of our concepts, values ​​or other things. We have to seek common ground while reserving differences. This is what a couple based on marriage should talk about. made."

Reid raised his hand and said, "I agree."

Clement added: "I know that Addams' values ​​are not quite in line with universal norms, but we all are, and we are proud of it."

Reid responded to him seriously: "I can understand you, everyone in the world has the right to choose how to live, and you are still living so well."

There was more envy in his eyes: "The family is the source of your pride, you don't have to, and you don't have to have the obligation to please other people, I also like your character, and Wednesday——I mean... I would probably like your family a lot."

"They must all be lovely."

Clement curled his lips and said, "Yes, they are all cute, as cute as you, and you will definitely like them."

"You don't know yet," Clement vaccinated Reid and said, "I've made an appointment with Wednesday unilaterally. During Halloween or Christmas, if you're free, I'll take you home to play. I would love for you to be part of the Addams family as my other half."

Reid was at a loss: "Uh, I mean, I..."

He stumbled and staggered, and finally blushed and said, "If there is a holiday."

Clement reciprocated: "Tell me about your family, Spencer, and I am looking forward to getting to know your family."

Reid said obediently: "My parents separated when I was young. My mother suffers from paranoid schizophrenia. She used to be a professor of literature and is now recuperating in a hospital."

His eyelids trembled when he said the last sentence, but he didn't dodge his lover's gaze in the slightest.

Clement didn't think much of it either, and just said, "I'd really like to meet her if possible."

He just knew it. Reid smiled slightly, and looked at him very gently: "There will be a chance, I usually communicate with her, our matter, um, I also mentioned it to her, maybe you can write to her next time A letter, and I think she'll like you."

"Because I like you too."

Clement has never known modesty, and smiled: "Really? I must say Spencer, your compliments really benefit me."

They exchanged a few love words back and forth before moving on to the previous topic.

Reid said: "My work is very busy, always very busy, and it is out of season, regardless of time and place."

When he said this, he thought of other people in BAU. Morgan and JJ were still single. Hotch's job brought a lot of troubles to his family. Occasionally, he saw the picture of Hotch missing and calling a few times. Vividly remembered, Reid didn't want this reason to cause him and Clement to part ways in the end, so he put the ugly words in front.

Interestingly speaking, Reid has never been a person who will take the initiative to fight for something, but he will always work hard for what he wants. It used to be a degree, and then entered BAU, and now of course it is the relationship with Clement. There was no doubt that Reid liked Clement, and there was no doubt that Reid was working hard for it.

Clement said it was nothing to him, he could accept it.

Clement said, "As long as you're with me in your free time, nothing else matters."

Clement smiled slightly and said: "You see, painting and BAU work are no different for us. They are both work and our hobby. I paint because of love, and you join BAU because of love."

The fact is that the salary of BAU cannot buy the life of the next doctor with a super high IQ, but dreams and love can. The same goes for Clement, he is a noble son from a wealthy family with no shortage of money, if it is not because of love, why should he be a long-distance traveler, working hard outside for many years without going home?

Reid's eyes were filled with joy, which was undoubtedly something he had been worried about for a long time, but maybe he was lucky, he and Clement were a same-sex couple, and they didn't have any troubles about children. support each other.

Reid hugged the coffee cup and said, "What about Clement, I still want to say thank you."

Clement changed his posture to look at him, with a smile streaming out of his long and narrow eyes: "If you really can't help it, you can give me a kiss."

So Reid stood up and kissed him, "Kiss!"

Clement said: "Kiss!"

After this kiss-me-me-sweet episode, the two moved to a more comfortable rug to talk about lighter topics.However, although this topic is easy, it is also a hurdle in their daily relationship.

Clement said bluntly: "This is different from a matter of principle. We have to talk about what can be changed and what cannot be changed, what can be tolerated and what cannot be tolerated."

Reid scratched his head: "Ah, it should."

On these complicated and important details, Reid was far less articulate than Clement, and he spoke clearly, and he just waited for Clement to teach himself a lesson.

Clement put on a serious face: "First of all, we must respect each other."

Reid listened intently: "Hmm."

Clement said: "Generally I spend the most time drawing when I'm at home, but you're still resting."

Reid said: "I can read it too, that's..."

Clement said: "This is very important!"

Reid: "Huh?"

Clement said: "Look, following today's template, we haven't spoken all morning."

Reid said: "But it's very quiet and very harmonious." Dr. Reid of the science and engineering department couldn't say more adjectives, but said: "I think it's very happy to get along with you just like this."

Clement laughed, "Me too."

The next moment he maintained his expression and said, "But you ignore me too much."

It's a hot day, but Reid thought about it carefully and felt that he was wrong, he said: "I thought it would be fine to stay with you in the studio."

He humbly asked for advice: "Do you think I only read books and didn't read you? Or something else? I dare not speak out for fear of disturbing you."

Clement said, "I don't think it's enough."

He said frankly: "When I paint, I often don't recognize my relatives. When I am in a good mood, I will selectively listen to the sounds of the outside world. If I am in a bad mood, I will automatically block all noises."

He said: "But you have to know that I am always in a good mood when I am with you, and I would like to listen to your voice and draw."

Reid laughed: "Then I will make my voice out when I read from now on, and I will discuss with you when I encounter problems, okay?"

Clement said, "Of course."

He couldn't hold back his expression anymore, with endless affection in his brows and eyes, he stared at his favorite Spencer and said, "If it's you, everything will be fine."

Reid smirked twice, and said: "From then on, I will accompany you to draw, and you will also accompany me to talk."

Clement toasted him, water and coffee rippled in different sizes, matching their deep and shallow smiles: "Congratulations on reaching a consensus!"

The author has something to say:

Sleep and sleep, argue and argue.Will living together be far away?
