A Tiny Problem (6/6)

"She looks really healthy." Newt said with a smile, as Percival held Tiny up for him to inspect. She licked his cheek affectionately, and Newt's face lit up. "You're doing really well, aren't you girl? Percival is taking such good care of you, isn't he?"
Percival couldn't help feeling a glow of pride in his chest at those words. It made him feel better.

"She's been doing a good job looking after me." He informed Newt. "We both missed you a lot."
"You missed me?" Newt asked cautiously. He looked surprised.
"I missed you a lot." Percival answered. "But... you're here now."
Newt nodded, reaching out and squeezing Percival's hand.
"I am." Newt's face scrunched up nervously for a moment, before he leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to Percival's lips. "I missed you too."

Percival wrapped his arms around him, brushing his fingers through Newt's hair. It was surprisingly soft and springy. Newt looked up curiously, a fond smile on his face. Percival leaned in and kissed him back, then laughed as Tiny slithered her way between the two of them and making her way onto Percival's shoulder.
"Think we could go out somewhere later?" He asked. "As a date?"
Newt considered, then shook his head. Percival tried not to feel like his heart was sinking. He clearly didn't manage to completely hide his emotions, because Newt shook his head and reached for his hand.

"I think it'd be better to go into the case... at least for now. We can talk there." Newt answered. "If I'm out in public, I'm always worrying about what people see. In the case, with you, I don't feel like that. If that... If that's alright with you?"
"It sounds brilliant to me." Percival answered. Newt looked happy at that moment, and Percival would have agreed to anything that made him smile like that.
"Can Tiny come too?"
"Tiny can come too." Newt answered with a nod, as Pickett clambered out from his pocket. "I'm hardly going to separate the two of you. Now, come on-"

***

It turned out that occasionally Newt would separate the two of them. Mainly because Percival felt self-conscious with being naked around her, and over the past month the relationship between the two of them had led to some nudity.

"Tiny." Percival spoke softly, frowning at the occamy who was currently as tall as he was, bobbing from side to side. "It's for one night. You can stay outside for one night." He pointed at the soft pile of blankets that he had put in the corridor outside the bedroom. "You'll be perfectly comfortable. You're being childish."

She tried to dart past him again, and he moved to block her, sending her back to the bed with a frown.
"You are sleeping here tonight Tiny. I'll see you in the morning, and you have a snack, here-" He put out a handful of cockroaches on the blanket. "You'll be quite comfortable. Now, you can stay out here, can't you."

He turned towards Newt, frowning when he saw Pickett on his shoulder.
"Is he going to stay?"

Pickett stuck his tongue out from his place on Newt's shoulder, and Tiny hissed.
Percival sighed.
"He's got a tree. Look, just for tonight." He walked into the bedroom, closing the door behind him.

"You okay?"
"I'm fine." Percival insisted, and Newt smiled.
"She'll be fine."
"Tell Pickett not to look..." Percival teased, before leaning in and kissing Newt. Newt threw a blanket over Pickett's tree to keep him from seeing, and then reached for Percival's shirt buttons.

Percival mirrored the action, gently kissing down Newt's chest.

***

Percival laid back on the bed, Newt curled up beside him. Newt's head was resting on his shoulder, their legs tangled together. Percival kissed him again. Newt smiled, then raised an eyebrow.
"What?" Percival asked.

Newt was grinning, and he pointed to the door. Percival watched as a shape slithered underneath the door, crawling up onto the bed. Tiny grew to a larger size, about the length of Percival's arm, and cuddled up beside Newt.

Percival chuckled, kissing Newt's forehead.
"I can put her outside if you want."
"She'll only come back in." Newt pointed out. "Anyway, I don't want to upset her by keeping her from her family."

Percival paused. "I'm going to have to get used to this from the two of you, aren't I?" He asked softly. Newt nodded, and Percival chuckled and shook his head, but he made no attempt to move Tiny away.
