xavier is a breath of fresh air in more ways than one
a/n: feeling sad and missing xavier so have some comforting fluff :P
you always seem to feel relieved after talking to xavier. his soft voice and gentle eyes help take the weight off your shoulders as you talk to him, even if it isn’t about whatever is bothering you. his reassuring words always seem to land right where they need to, making your heart race slightly in the best way possible. his soft touches and fun anecdotes make you smile until your cheeks hurt.
xavier always manages to coax you out of your home, even on days when you don’t want to. especially on days you don’t want to.
“the weather is really nice, wanna join me on a walk?” he sounds hopeful over the phone, your chest hurts as you pull your blanket tighter around yourself.
“I’m really tired today, sorry xav,” you mumble, tears pricking your eyes as you try to end the conversation quickly.
“that’s okay, we don’t have to walk much. there’s a nice bench under a tree we can sit at?” Xavier’s voice is just as gentle as always as he speaks, a hint of hope still tinging his tone.
“maybe another time? i just don’t feel like it right now,” you reply, “ill text you later, okay?” you say quietly, hanging up before he can question you.
two minutes later there’s a knock on your door, you answer with red rimmed eyes and tear stained cheeks. xavier feels his heart break in his chest as he hands you your favorite candy.
“you know being outside for even 10 minutes helps boost your mood?” his small sheepish smile makes your lips twitch upwards slightly.
the two of you sit together quietly on your balcony, not saying anything as the sun warms up your skin.
“the weather is really nice,” you finally say, eyes shifting around the cityscape as you stare over your balcony, xavier smiles at your words.
xavier smells like fresh laundry. the smell of his laundry detergent and cologne permeate your bedsheets and throw blankets after he’s been over. it makes you miss him even more when he’s not with you.
after a long day you find yourself seeking out his scent, inhaling the lingering smell that is uniquely xavier on his side of your bed. you pout as the hole in your heart isn’t filled, reaching over and sending him an ‘i miss you’ text. he’s by your side in seconds.
you don’t hesitate to throw your arms around him, shoving your face in the crook of his neck and breathing in deeply. he smells like himself, he smells like home. your mind stops racing and your heartbeat settles into a familiar rhythm. your lips turn upwards as they meet his.
“missed you angel eyes,” you whisper, cuddling further into him, letting his entire body engulf you.
“i did too, starlight,” he mumbles back, placing a kiss to the top of your head, strong arms wrapping around you securely.
xavier was your breath of fresh air, always there when you needed him most.
