Chatper Twenty - Seven

- [F/N's] POV -

I get up from the couch after wiping off my chest and stomach, chuckling at how embarrassed Gavin seemed to be. I glance at him as he walks down the hall before I get up and join him in my room, hugging him.from behind before he gets the chance to sit on the bed.

"Was it enough?" I ask, resting my chin on his shoulder. He tenses a little and gives a slight nod, clearing his throat. "It was fine, let's not talk about it." He mutters, gently pulling away from me and getting into the bed once he had stripped to his boxers. I raise an eyebrow, realising that this was the first time Gavin had actually slept without being dressed in a mountain of clothes. I climb in next to him, gently running a hand through his hair while he lightly closes his eyes, tilting his head up into my hand for more contact. I shimmy a little closer to him, pulling the man against me. His hand gently rests his head against my chest, laying a hand over my side and snuggling up to me.

"You know, when you're not a grumpy bitch, you're quite cute," I mutter. "Wow, thanks, that means so much to me." He snorts, pulling me a little closer. He stays silent for a long while, me almost asleep before I jolt awake a little when he speaks again, "So, what are we exactly..?" He asks, voice soft as if he was nervous of the newer. "Hm, just very, very gay friends..." I mumble out, half asleep and not thinking clearly. He nods, breathing out a slight sigh and before I know it, it's the next morning.

I sit up and stretch, seeing Gavin still sleeping soundly. I press a kiss to his cheek then get up, deciding that today was the day I was going to speak to the Captain and get things sorted for Gavin. I already had a plan in my mind for what I wanted to happen and I was silently praying it would go as I think it will.

I shower, dress and get a cup of coffee into me before I notice a titer Gavin shuffle towards me.

"Why are we up so early?" He questions me, looking at me as he stretches. I give a light smile, shaking my head, "There's no " we" in this, you can go back to sleep, Gav, I have a couple of things I need to do today." I explain, deciding that I wouldn't mention the photos. Gavin seemed to mostly be in a tired mood which was fine, I didn't need to make it worse. He gives a confused nod before sitting on the couch, almost instantly falling back asleep.

I gather the photos, putting them in a little clear bag before carefully putting them in my jacket pocket, stealing Gavin's keys and going down to the car. Starting the engine, I mumble to myself as I drive.

"Right, go inside, go to his office and show him the pictures, he might be your captain but he needs to be told he was wrong." I keep saying that to myself, trying to build up my courage as I wander into the station, taking a couple of deep breaths before stepping into Fowler's office.

"Sir? Can we talk for a moment?" I ask, stopping in front of his desk and watching as he looks up at me, confused, "you're not supposed to be here today, [F/N]. What is it?" I take the photos out of my pocket and place them on the table, looking at him. "You were all wrong about Gavin's case, sir, and I'm here to prove it to you. We were cleaning Gavin's bungalow and we found these." I say, pushing the bag toward him. Fowler picks up the bat, confused and flicks through the photos, scrunching up his features.

"How do I know this isn't some form of sick joke?" He asks. "I take one of the photos and point to the date on the bottom of it, "It's not a joke and honestly,  how dare you, of all people, to assume it is! He came to you in a time of need and you were all such, excuse my language, but you were all such fucking cunts about it! He was so desperate, do you even know what he's been through? That poor man was suicidal, hurting himself constantly and none of you fucking noticed because all you were fixated on was the fact that you didn't want the publicity of having an officer raped by a damn android!" I snap, just as surprised as Fowler by my outburst.

"I mean... You... These..." Fowler clears his throat, not entirely sure what to say. "You can't be so quick to assume, it wasn't just us that didn't want the publicity, Cyberlife didn't want it either." "I'll expose you both, don't think for a second that I won't. I think you really need to make it up to Gavin, and quickly." I retort, looking at him. Fowler clears his throat again, nodding, "What do you suggest?" "Pay for all of his therapy, and give him the money for all the medications he's been on since then, it's not fair that he had to pay to keep himself Alive all because you assholes didn't believe him," I state, crossing my arms and watching as Fowler goes to argue, shuts his mouth and gives a final nod. "One more thing paid leave until he's better to come back. And apologize, for fucks sake." With that, I scoop up the photos, putting them back in my pocket before leaving the office.

Once I was outside, I let out a deep breath, slumping against the building and closing my eyes. How the fuck do I still have a job? I think to myself before looking at Gavin's car, a smile coming to my lips when I realise that hey, I may have actually done something seriously good. Climbing into the car, I see that I missed a call from Gavin. I hum, ignoring it before going to shop, deciding that I would do something nice for us for the night.

- Gavin's POV -

I stare at my phone, having only woken up moments ago. I toss it to the side when I realize that [F/N] isn't going to call me back. I curl up on the couch before looking up when I hear the door open, seeing [F/N] step through.

"Hey, Gav, I have some good news for you." He says, a bright smile on his face. I get up and take a bag off him, bringing it into the kitchen. "What's that, then?" I ask, humming before staring at him when he speaks again. "I showed Fowler the photos and now you're going to have few therapies, paid leave and your money back for all your meds. Also, now he's going to apologise and things should hopefully go back to normal for you, no one is allowed to mention that anymore." He says, grinning at me and placing some things on the table, "Oh, and I bought us somethings too. We can have a nice night in." He beams, putting the things away while I still just stare at him.

"What's wrong?" He asks, looking worried. I tear up a little, an overwhelming emotion taking over. "Why would you do that?" I question, looking at him as he steps closer to me, cupping my cheeks. "I told you before, Gav, I was serious when I said I'm falling in love with you..." He simply states, leaning down and pressing a light kiss to my lips. I lean up, pressing against him more and cupping the side of his neck, making it a little more intense.

"Wait, wait, you're seriously going to make me needy if you don't stop." [F/N] mumbles against my lips, pulling back a tiny but whole I suck in a breath. "Sorry, sorry..." I mutter, pulling back and clearing my throat, feeling... Relieved, really, at what [F/N] had sone for me... I still don't fully understand how that man could be feeling so strongly for me but I had to admit that I was most certainly beginning to feel that way about him as well, I'm just way too scared to admit it.

"So, I bought junk food because who doesn't want junk food, so I have an idea." He grins, rushing off into the living room and closing the door. "Don't come in!" He calls out and I stand outside the door, baffled before it swung open. "Alright, come on." He grabs my hand and tugs me inside, the couch had a few pillows and blankets set up on it and there was a couple of candles lit on the table. He had a few things set out for us, including some drinks.

"Why did you do this- wait, never mind, I know the answer..." I mutter, smiling like an idiot as [F/N] sits me on the couch, kissing my forehead, speaking

"Now, let's just have a nice afternoon, yeah?"

"Sounds good to me..."
