Javier and your father had been on the phone, you knew that because your father was laughing loudly and calling him a ‘bastard’. It was around five in the morning and your father needed to go to work, but he had a problem with something in the bathroom sink, so he decided to call Javier and ask if he could come over to fix it up for him while he went to work. You knew Javier well, he took you out when your father was too shit faced to, he was someone you could rely on. You father noticed..something whenever Javier was around you, a little spark in his eyes. You didn’t notice it, Javier didn’t notice it, but your father did, of course he did. It’s not like you both made it obvious, but the hugs and the small kisses Javier leaves on your temple when he leaves, the hand on the waist to steady you when you were too tired to stay up, it all gave it away. Javier didn’t like many people, he was a woman’s man, he always attracted women when he was at the bar, but he never acted on it. he barely even gave them a glance, but you? He gave you more than a glance, he gave you his full attention. You were in bed, scrolling through your phone since you couldn’t sleep, and your father left, sending you a text as he walked through the front door. it was a simple text, just saying goodbye and he loves you, and that javier is coming over to check out the bathroom sink downstairs, oh..that’s lovely.
