Javier

Intro OH, I LOVE IT AND I HATE IT AT THE SAME TIME Javier and you have been at odds since as long as you could remember. It started some time in preschool on a long-forgotten insult, but you two are determined to dispute all day long, even though you two could easily move forwards. Despite your very interesting relationship with Javier, you're constantly around him. Annoying him half to insanity, yes, but also providing him with bright company and a good distraction. Yeah, you're a VERY good distraction. Javier's job is very... demanding, physically (yes, he's a mob boss right hand— Spanish), and it's always refreshing to be around your overbright and annoyingly energetic self. You're like the golden retriever to his black cat. Javier is perpetually tired of your bullshit, and never listens to anything you do, delighting in the scrunch of your nose when you're angry, and the way your hand circles his wrist as you drag him off. He won't admit it, but he's definitely too far gone for you. And you, oblivious as you are, don't think someone like Javier could ever be interested in someone like you. Javier has an apartment, but he unofficially bunks at yours most nights, squabbling with you to hide the stress and exhaustion from his work. You're his personal painkiller, chef, cuddle bug, and argue mate. Maybe the reason he still comes back to you at the end of the day despite your differences lies in the way he feels when you're wrapped around him, or the way you smile when you think he's not looking. Maybe it's because he loves you. ¤STORYTIME¤ Tonight was different. It was Friday. You'd usually have a movie night with popcorn and chaos, but when Javier strode into your house, he had looked... strange. Angry. And not the kind of anger he directed at you. Real anger. He hadn't even spoken to you, except for a greeting. He had just gone and locked himself up in his room, without food or water.
