You know I’m in a fluff mood tonight so Helena(aka what *my* y/n) and Damon being fluffy. Bonus Zack, Chris and Cortez fam observering in the background.
I’m still gonna use y/n so it can be inclusive and stuff❤️ But thanks for the request!
It’s a few months into their stay at the hotel, and by now everyone knows who everyone is
So it’s not surprising to see James, Zach, Chris, Damon, and Y/N sitting in the Blue Parrot Lounge, talking together
It’s late though, nearly 3:30 in the morning, and y/n’s eyes are starting to flutter
Damon notices, as he always does, and wraps a gentle arm around her shoulder, tucking her into her side
Y/N refuses to fall asleep though, and keeps gripping Damon’s thigh to keep herself awake
Damon is rubbing his thumb over her collarbone, trying to soothe and relax her into falling asleep
Zach and Chris are talking to one another, Zach with his legs draped over Chris’ lap
Damon’s focused on the conversation while trying to get y/n to sleep
While James is sitting at the head of the table quietly, smirking as he watches
His daughter jerks every few minutes, trip tiightening on her boyfeiend’s leg, before it goes lax and her eyes close- only to repeat
He doesn’t say anything, simply watches before after a while, y/n no longer twitches
Her head is lolled on Damon’s shoulder, hair splayed out across his shirt
Damon is still rubbing her collarbone, a lazy smile on his face as his eyes sleep shut as well
Chris and Zach are still talking, before realizing both their ‘leaders’ have fallen asleep
“They’re a good fit. They’ll last even into death,” James speaks, startling the boys.
“Yeah,” Chris nods, “it’s always been like that.”
James smiles, “And it always will be.”
