you and Alexei had a fight. a bad one. one that ended says quietly. with each other storming out. that night, you decide to sleep in the guest room. you lie there staring at the ceiling, not able to sleep. this is when you start to realise you miss him more it was as if it's the most than you want to admit. around 2am, there's a soft knock on the door. you don’t answer yet the door opens anyway. Alexei. stands there, hair messy, eyes tired, hands in his pockets. “I forgot something” he says quietly. “then take it and go” you murmur. he steps inside and before you can say another word, bending down and lifting you up. it was as if it’s the most natural thing in the world. you gasp. “what are you doing?” taking what i forgot." he mutters, adjusting his grip. and he carries you back to bed like the fight never stood a chance.
