11: Nightmares and a Kiss

(YES PEOPLE YOU READ RIGHT.)
Crowley & Aziraphale:

It seemed like Crowley was driving to Anathema's cottage, but when Aziraphale asked him about it, he got a scoff and grumbling.

Although when they arrived and entered the cottage, Aziraphale was surprised to find neither Newt nor Hastur.

The two of them still didn't have a proper conversation, they just settled down in the living room, Aziraphale reading a book and Crowley being on his phone.

'Why are you staying with me?', Aziraphale eventually asked.

Crowley looked up from his phone for a moment.

'I had movie tickets for today.', he finally stated.

Now, that was confusing. 'Why tickets? You could've miracled yourself a seat.'

'It was a gesture. They were for us.', he answered, looking back at his phone.

The angel lit up a bit. 'Which movie do you choose?'

Crowley sighed. 'The Barbie movie.'

(of course he would go to the barbie movie, partly because he once met ryan gosling. they took a photo together.)

'I thought you weren't interested in it.', he earned a confused look from Aziraphale.

Crowley looked at him, annoyed. 'And I thought you would choose us over Heaven. We all assume something from time to time, angel.'

And before Aziraphale could protest, Crowley got up and walked to the kitchen. He was getting alcohol, of course.

He grabbed a few bottles, putting one of them in front of Aziraphale, and settling down on the sofa.

Aziraphale took the bottle and got a glass, going upstairs. He felt Crowley was better off without him right now.

And although he slept very rarely over the past millennia, Aziraphale felt like it right now. He took the room he saw Crowley in earlier that day, settling down, and closing his eyes.

Although it was a very weird thing to do, Aziraphale actually smelt Crowley's scent on the covers.

And although it was an even weirder thing to feel, he felt strangely comforted by it and fell asleep rather quickly.

When he woke up again, he had the pulsing urge to go and tell Crowley what actually happened.

He went downstairs and he looked for him, but he just couldn't find him.

So he called and when someone answered, he started ranting.

He talked about everything. About how sorry he was, about their time spent together and about he thought it was the Metatron who forced him to do what he did.

And when he finished, he turned around, facing Crowley, who suddenly stood there.

'Can you forgive me?', he asked, on the verge of tears.

Crowley looked at him. And once again, Aziraphale hated that he couldn't see his eyes because of his shades.

But he took them off, and the look he gave him was even worse.
