Fucking Finally Friday (affectionate)

So I finally worked on an actual WIP for the first time in weeks. Here's a snippet of the RWRB Bones AU:

“Don’t you worry that pretty blonde head of yours, sweetheart. I made it very clear that no one is allowed anywhere near the remains until you get there.”

Henry stops short, his Kensingtonian badge held out in front of him, since he needs it to call the elevator, “You told them that?”

“Yep.” 

“Thank you, Alex,” 

The sudden sincerity in Henry’s voice is disarming. Alex just shrugs, “I know how this works. We’ve been working together a year now, after all.”

The way Henry is looking at him could only be described as “fond”, but before Alex can say anything else, Henry playfully smacks himself on the forehead, “Is it our anniversary already? And to think, I didn’t get you a gift!”

”Nope! And that will be listed in our divorce settlement under “reasons this whole thing was a mistake.”

Henry laughs at that. Alex loves making him laugh. It wasn’t easy, in the beginning, but over time he’s learned. It’s one of the many things he’s learned about his partner.

It took longer than he cared to admit, but Alex has come to realize that what he once assumed was a cold and standoffish demeanor was just insulation. A way to compartmentalize. Henry valued the work he did and he did it well. But if he wasn’t careful… If he opened that valve a little too wide, the grief of it all would swallow him whole. It was better to stick to the facts. The science. The tangible truth of a situation. That was the only way through. 

Alex has learned, over time, all the different shades of Henry’s moods. He knows now when to push, when to let go. It’s like learning a new language. One that only Henry can teach him.
