It was a drizzly night in East London. I'd decided to go up for the week from my house in  Paris to visit with Dom. We'd been best friends for ages, but with both of our lifestyle we didn't get to see each other as much as we'd like. However, Dom had a couple months off tour and was recording and working on his new album. I took the TGV to London from Paris, and shot Dom a text when I was about 20 minutes from pulling into the station. I had my weekend bag and slung over my shoulder, that was much heavier than I had anticipated when I packed for the trip.I never knew who'd we be seeing or doing to i often over packed clothes.

Dom had texted that he had arrived at the station almost exactly when I got off the train, which was perfect timing. I was in black ripped jeans, a black and white striped shirt, no bra (I'm French, so fuck the system) a leather jacket and black boots. My auburn and orange hair was lightly curled and I wore a red lipstick. I walked as gracefully as I could with my heeled boots and my bag making my a bit unsteady. When I got to the public part of the station I saw Dom waiting with Flowers, a goddamn angel. He had his red hair pushed out of his face with his sunglasses and was in a cute pink  jumper, black jeans and his creepers, chains around this neck and rings covering this fingers. I trotted over to him, dropped my bag and wrapped him in a huge hug. He smelled like his favorite perfume and cigarettes, honestly he smelt like home. He was one of the people in my life that made me feel so safe, like hugging him melted all my stress away.
"Hi Darling," Dom had pulled me back at arms length,smiling wide, "you look gorgeous!"
"Thank you, as do you, I missed you!" I kissed both of his cheeks. I went to reach for my bag so we could leave but he grabbed it for me and held my hand playfully as we walked to the tube to head to his house. It was drizzling outside, typical, and Dom held an umbrella over us. As we walked we discussed trivial things about what we'd been up to since we last saw each other, possible ideas for the week, and dumb jokes.

Once on the tube we sat next to each other, Dom setting the wet umbrella on the ground. The good thing is we wouldn't have much to walk to his house once off the metro.
"Wanna listen to music?" Dom nudged into my shoulder with a headphone in his hand.
"Please!" I loved when Dom played me music, often stuff I hadn't heard before, but this time we listened to Disintegration by The Cure, one of my favorite albums. I took a deep breath, tired from travelling and cuddled into Dom's shoulder. He looked down at me and smiled, resting his head on mine. I must have dozed off because I woke to Dom gently touching my cheek, my eyes opened and Dom had my bag over his shoulder and was knelt in front of me when people walked out behind him.
"Our stop, sleepyhead." He helped me up and we walked onto the platform. My eyes fluttered with exhaustion as we walked the stairs to the city top out of the tube. My pace slowed so much, I felt as I could fall asleep while walking.
Dom turned to me, seeing me lagging behind.
"Alright, come here, sleepy." He came to me and offered me a piggy back ride. I was too tired not to accepted and got on his back and held the umbrella for us. Luckily his home was only 3 blocks away, but despite me telling him I could walk he insisted on carrying me. We made it to the front door, bright pink, and walked in. Welcomed with a walls full of art, brick, and lovely interior. Dom set me to my feet in the foyer and offered to take my coat. He tossed both of our jackets in the closet and we walked up the stairs to his living room.
"You want some tea?" Dom had already walked to the kitchen to start the kettle for himself as I sat on the couch.
"Please, thank you Dom." I turned to smile at him in the kitchen. Then a yawn escaped my mouth.
"Darling if you're tired you can rest." He was sincere.
"I don't want to ruin our first day together." I contrasted him, though I really did want a nap.
The kettle sounded and before I knew it Dom was handing me a cup of tea and sitting himself next to me. I took a cautious first sip of the steamy liquid and settled in. Dom made the best cup of tea. I set the glass on the coffee table when Dom said "you would not ruin the day, we could always go out later, plus we have a whole week. Please don't worry about it, come here." Dom pulled up a soft blacked and I cuddled into him on the couch. I tried but I couldn't manage to get comfortable. I was all over the place trying to find a spot of comfort. After struggling for a while I sighed giving up, getting kind of cranky from my exhaustion.
"Can't get comfy?" Dom asked putting his hand on my hand, rubbing with his thumb soothingly. I shook my head. "Wanna go cuddle in bed?" He was gentle and quiet, something I didn't experience often. I nodded and he then scooped me into his arms and brought me to the room, him holding me and listening to his heart beat through his jumper made me even more exhausted.
Dom opened the door to his room and set me on the bed. "Want a t-shirt and boxers to be comfy?" He was at his closet and already had stuff in his hand. "That would be great, Dom." He set them next to me and said that he'd give me time to get dressed and would come back in. I got changed and under the covers making myself comfy knowing Dom would join me.
He'd changed himself into Pj bottoms and a cropped shirt as well. "Got all tucked in, good. Mind if I join?" I loved how he asked me for permission even in his own home and bed. "Of course, Cheri." He set on a record, lit a candle, shut off the lights and cuddled in. He wrapped his arms around me gently and I fell asleep.
