꧁꧂꧁꧂꧁꧂

sighing heavily i lay my head on the steering wheel. luckily i had just parked the alexis and i's driveway, yet i hadn't moved.

it was a hard day to say the least. nothing went right. literally pretty much everything that could go wrong, went wrong. the only thing that could've been worse was nuclear warfare.

but honestly, that idea sounded kinda relieving after a day like today.

finally lifting my head off the steering wheel, i blink away any tears that might've been noticeable. then i unlock the car, open the door, and get my bag from the passenger seat and climb out of the car. i close the car door with my side, pushing it closed. i locked the car before i head to the front door.

inside, our cat runs up to my feet, weaving her way between my legs. i smiled softly, setting my things down in the entrance, too fed up to actually put anything away right now. i squad down, petting her softly.

"hi, heart," i whisper out a greeting. "where's alexis?" i ask, as if she'd answer. i let out a small hum, walking back towards his recording room. without thinking, i open the door and open my mouth to greet him. yet i stop in my tracks as i see him, talking into his microphone.

"chat! no chat! stop calling me flatty patty! i'm not-" he cuts himself short, looking up at me. "hi. i'm streaming." i see him look down, pressing his mute key.

"sorry." i say, backtracking my steps, walking back out. he instantly frowns.

"no, come say hi!" he encourages. then his face drops. "what's wrong?"

it's like he could read me like a book. even if i didn't vocalize it, he knew. i shake my head, fully stepping out of the room to close the door.

"can i get a hug?" he asks. a soft, and comforting smile played at his lips. "please?" i let out a sigh.

"yeah." my voice came out softer than expected. yet i come back into the room and cross to his chair. i hug him, leaning down a little. he loops his arms around my back. at first the hug was soft, yet warming. then after a few seconds he tightened his grip for a few seconds. as if he was saying it'll be okay. without a word i duck my head into the crook of his neck.

tears threaten my eyes again, and alexis lays his head against mine. his headphones hitting my head, causing me to laugh into his neck. he rubs his hands up and down my back, soothing me more.

i go to pull away yet he tightens his grip again. i let out another laugh. i tighten my grip on him for a few seconds. finally, he loosens up and lets me pull back.

"i love you, alexis." i say before walking to the door again.

"i love you, too." his voice a little lower than usual, he pauses for a second. "im proud of you (y/n)." right as he drops that i freeze in place. i bite my lip to keep back any tears or audible 'aw's. yet he goes to unmute himself in stream.

"sorry chat, i'm back!" he goes back to his cheerful voice. i decide to stand in the doorway for a little longer, watching him get back into his stream.

"thank you for the donation! yeah," he pauses, listening to the text to speech. "oh yeah you guys know (y/n), my significant other. they needed a well deserved hug." he continues talking but i can't help but reflect on the past minute. i stay there for another minute, the boy across the room sneaks smiles up at me every once and a while.

i finally leave, letting him focus on his stream. it wasn't long, maybe forty minutes, until he entered our room. i was laid on the bed, scrolling through twitter when he jumped on the bed.

"sorry for disrupting your stream." i say, putting my phone down and turning to him.

"don't worry, they like you more than they like me." he jokes, making me let out a small laugh. "are you okay, though?"

"yeah," i reassure him. "just a bad day. i feel better now." as i let that sentence out our cat jumps up on the bed. she moves in between us, finding comfort in the warmth.

"well, hi heart." he coos, petting her head. she purrs, rubbing her head against his hand. a smile breaks my face.

suddenly, the worries and stress of the previous hours faded away.

this is what it's about. this is nice.
