Breathing

May 28th, 2019

"Tyler, do you think we should-"

Josh cuts himself off when he sees his boyfriend fast asleep on the sofa with their daughter in his arms. AJ's curled up on Tyler's chest, her head underneath his chin. Tyler's hands are folded over her back gently, protectively, like she's the most fragile and the most precious thing in the world.

Which she is.

Josh leans back against the wall, smiling at the two of them. It kind of makes him feel incredibly old, feeling so contented by the sight of his family. But that's okay.

AJ shifts a little, and Josh is right beside her before he can think about it, hands out to catch her. But she only burrows her head further into Tyler's neck, making a little cooing sound.

Josh doesn't know how long he sits there, watching the two people he loves the most just breathe.

Fucking fluff.
