Javier's in a foul mood by the time he finally makes it home. He tugs and kicks his boots off with an almost viciousness, then shucks out of his jacket and drops it on top of them. The puddle that's spreading out from the sodden mess is ignored in favor of peeling off his dripping socks and unsticking his clammy t-shirt from his chest. The fabric clings unpleasantly and he's nearly snarling by the time he starts trying to work tight, soggy denim down over his thighs.
He stumbles forward a little bit, and one of his boots is sticking out just far enough that his foot skids over the heel and he topples down hard onto his side.
"God damn it!"
He's struggling back up onto his feet when Kevin appears in the doorway leading into the kitchen. The once over he gives Javier is almost tangible, and one eyebrow goes up when he crosses his arms and asks, "Bad day at the office, dear?"
"Don't even," Javier says, shaking his head and hopping as he finally succeeds in getting his left foot untangled from his jeans. "You know exactly how shitty my day was; you were there for most of it."
"Hmm," Kevin intones thoughtfully. He slinks a little closer, close enough that Javier can see exactly how dark his eyes have gone. "I did think the thing with the blue kool aid was a bit over the top."
A shiver that's only a little to do with the chill goose pimpling his skin works its way through his body. "It was, and you took our umbrella when you left early."
"I did, didn't I." Kevin moves in close enough that he can slide a hand up Javier's chest, the heel of his hand pressing down hard on a nipple as he moves over it. His hand settles on the back of Javier's neck. His grip is firm, but careful, a solid, grounding presence that Javier leans back into. "I'm sorry about that. Let me make it better?"
The tension in Javier's shoulders starts to slowly unknot and his eyes flutter close.
"Let me take care of you," Kevin says, his voice lower than it was before. "I want to take care of you."
And when Kevin's fingers tighten and he gently presses down, it's as blissfully easy as breathing to drop down to his knees and deep into headspace.
Thank you for reading! Feedback is always appreciated!
First commenter gets to pick the next prompt! When requesting, please keep in mind that I try to keep these between 100-500 words. For a list of my fandoms and squicks, go here. The list is worth checking out again even if this isn't your first rodeo, because it's just gone through a major overhaul. AUs, crack, genderbending, etc are all welcome in addition to more canon compliant prompts.
IMPORTANT: I'm embarrassingly behind on, well, pretty much everything at this point, so please keep the spoilers for the latest season anything still airing that's on my list AWAY from my journal in your prompts and comments. Thanks!

(Honestly, I wasn't expecting to get the prompt again, lol. Just happened to refresh my flist in between episodes and lo and behold, fic appeared! I'll have to think a bit on the prompt, I think. Got nothin' at the moment.)
(Edited because I need to remember to actually *use* the icon I made especially for commenting on R/E fic XD )
