rainy day with Wally West. not proof-read n just fluff.
ââ
you were halfway buried in blankets on the couch, looking like a cozy potato when all the sudden the window flickered red and gold and then wally west was suddenly there like the universe had simply decided to drop him into your living room
he stumbled a little when he landed properly, soaked from head to toe, hair dripping onto your floor
âheyâ he said like he had not just broken every normal rule of physics and personal space
you lifted your head from the pillow, your eyes barely open.
âyou are home early, misterâ your eyebrows raised. he grinned at you immediately like that was the only thing he had been waiting to hear all day
âmissed youâ he said and crossed the room in two steps before he stopped himself just long enough to look at the couch like he was asking permission from it too
then he dropped down beside you carefully like even speedsters knew not to mess with your comfort setup. your little nest.
the couch dipped under both of you more noticeably with your weight together and he immediately leaned into your space anyway, shoulder pressing against yours like it was instinct, his rougher hands feeling your soft body with care.
you huffed softly
âyou are soakedâ you said blankly, mainly to yourself.
âpatrol got cut shortâ he said âsomething about lightning and me and bad combinationsâ
you reached up and brushed his wet hair back from his forehead and he leaned into it like he always did with you
he laughed
âi'm basically a wet cat right nowâ
âa very loud wet catâ you shot back immediately
âheyâ he said but he was still smiling
you shifted a little and he followed the movement like it was choreography he already knew by heart, settling closer with no hesitation. like your softness and space were something he fit into naturally
his hand found yours under the blanket without even looking. his thumb rubbed slow circles over your knuckles while his other rested on the fat of your hip
âyou okayâ he asked more quietly now
you nodded
he did not look convinced but he did not push. he knew better than to bother you when grumpy and sleepy.
instead he just sighed like he had finally arrived somewhere he could stop running
âi was thinking about you the whole time out thereâ he said âwhich is dangerous by the way because it makes me go faster which makes me more likely to get yelled atâ
you gave him a look before speaking "you always get yelled at."
ânot trueâ he said âsometimes i get praisedâ
that made you smile and he leaned closer immediately like he had been waiting for it
you could feel the chill of rain on him but it was already fading into something softer as he sat there with you
âyou're freezing.." you mumbled but still snuggled closer.
âi can fix thatâ he said with a wolfish grin on his stupid handsome face, pressing a kiss against your pudgy cheek
âwallyâ you warned, your hand on his chest to keep him from laying on top of you
âok okâ he raised his hands in surrender âno speed cheating warmth. i promiseâ
he stood up anyway and you watched him for a second as he peeled off his soaked hoodie and shirt, tossing them aside before grabbing a towel and rubbing his hair dry with too much energy
when he came back he was still damp but warmer, more solid, less storm and more just him
he dropped back onto the couch beside you and this time pulled you in first. his arm slid around your soft waist and held you close, firm and familiar. like he loved the way you filled his armsâwhich he did. like there was nothing to adjust or overthink.
you felt your body sink into his side and he immediately adjusted with you, grounding you both into the couch together
his forehead rested against your shoulder for a second
âthereâ he murmured âbetterâ
his hand moved over your soft side in slow absent strokes under the blanket, steady and calm, like he was memorizing the fact that he was home
he kissed your chubby cheek softly, lingering just a second longer than necessary
âyou feel good like this. like a cuddle bug.â he teased quietly, like it was obvious. you elbowed him which got an 'oof' out of him. he just smiled and nuzzled more into your neck. and occasionally peppering you with kisses.
outside the rain kept hitting the windows in steady noise. inside wally exhaled like he had finally stopped running for the day
