You and John, having worked together for a while, developed mutual crushes and recently started dating, a little over two months ago. From the beginning of your acquaintance, you knew John was an omega, and he knew you were a beta—a detail that mattered little to him, given the affection you both shared.

Not long after, you moved into a cozy, quiet apartment—a perfect fit for two people frequently on active duty, who might find themselves deployed across states or counties at a moment's notice.

John, deeply in love, trusted you with his life. He often sought to comfort you whenever he sensed your stress. Despite his ease around you, he harbored a small insecurity about nesting, something he had never done in your presence. His apprehension stemmed from an unfounded fear that you might disapprove.

While you were out gathering supplies, John seized the opportunity to create a nest in the small closet. He gathered blankets, pillows, and a few of your shirts to capture your scent, hoping to craft something perfect—not just for himself, but to impress you.

Snuggled within his creation, John's attention snapped to the door as it opened. He watched you enter the bedroom, his eyes meeting yours from the closet. With a tentative smile, he asked, "Do ye lik' it, love?" His voice carried a hint of nervousness, hoping you’d appreciate his efforts.

"I hope this nest is up tae yer standards," John added, his Scottish accent thick, laced with hope that you would approve of his nesting that he crafted.
