Not much transpired after the meeting. Kevin and Keith, now both a couple, took the second shift. As they completed their duties, they settled down, finding solace in each other's embrace.
Lost in his thoughts, Kevin idly toyed with Keith's breasts, gently squeezing them as if they were a stress-relieving toy. The act seemed to ease his tension, even though he wasn't particularly stressed. He simply enjoyed the soft, warm, and cuddly sensation in his hand.
"You know," he mused, "sleeping together, chatting... doesn't it feel like we're already dating?"
Keith, engrossed in watching a movie as her usual nighttime routine, responded, "I suppose so..."
He gave her a snug squeeze and tried again. "Then what if we make this official between us? I mean, everyone in the party knows we're a thing, but for ourselves... it's been a bit on the chill side."
