Jake X Reader #3

This day is terrible.

You thought as you trudged down the sidewalk on your way home from work. You were exhausted and today just wasn't your day. You kept walking, passing under streetlamp after streetlamp after streetlamp. After a while of walking with your hands in your pockets, you felt something wet touch your nose. Looking up at the clear night sky, you realized that it was starting to rain.

Sighing, you put the hood on your jacket up and continued walking. You could feel your shoulders grow heavy and your body grow weary from everything today but you didn't care. All you wanted to do was get home.

The rain started pouring harder and the pacing of your steps stagnant. There was far too much on your mind.

By now, you were drenched in the rain, but you didn't care. You were already home anyway.

Fumbling around your jacket pockets, you searched for the keys to your apartment. Finding them, you quickly moved to put the key in the hole to open the door. After a while of struggling with it, you gave up in frustration. Dropping the keys back into your pocket, you knocked on the door a few times and sat down on the steps of your porch, hugging your knees.

A few seconds later, the porch light blinked on and you heard footsteps.

You looked up just in time to see the door open.

In the doorway stood a male figure with dark messy hair.

"Good Lord, [name]. You're drenched." He said with a crisp British accent

You said nothing and moved not, too exhausted to do anything. You heard your love sigh and walk towards you. He knelt down next to you so that you two were at eye-level, his green eyes staring into your own, sparkling with love and concern.
"Jake." You managed to let out and leaned forward towards him. He caught you in his arms and carried you bridal-style into the house you two shared.

He sat you down onto one of the kitchen chairs and he slowly took your jacket off you. A draft of cold air came in through the windows and you shivered. Jake noticed it and left the kitchen to bring you a towel. When he came back, he placed the towel around your shoulders and over your head. From there, he walked you to your shared bedroom and into the bathroom where he helped you undress and when he washed you up and dried you off. You were starting to feel a bit better, but still exhausted nonetheless.

Seeing as your mood improved, even just a little bit, he cracked a smile and handed you your bedclothes, which he helped you put on.

After you were dressed, you both slowly headed to the bed. You sliding into it first, followed by Jake, who, while facing you, immediately wrapped his arms around you.

"I love you, [name]." He said and kissed your forehead. You felt your eyelids start to droop. You smiled and drifted off to sleep.

"I love you too, Jake."

Maybe this day wasn't so bad after all.
