May 4 - cozy - 399 words - @platonic-multifandom-microfics - Jean Moreau & Neil Josten
Jeremy wasn't freaking out. Of course he wasn't, he's totally chill.
He just couldn't find Jean anywhere. The Frenchman had disappeared soon after dinner, that was four hours ago. He thought Cat had stayed with Jean. Apparently Cat thought he was with Laila, she thought he was with Cody, and Cody thought he was with Jeremy. Overall, a hot mess.
Okay, so maybe he was freaking out a little bit. But can you blame him? After that encounter with Grayson, Jeremy was just being cautious. He knows Jean can take care of himself but Jeremy would prefer if he didn't have to.
And now he was running out of places where Jean could be. He decided to try the pool, just in case. It was definitely a long shot but Jeremy was desperate. He scanned into the pool room and opened the door.
The muggy air and smell of chlorine hit him first. The sight of Kevin and Andrew arguing in the pool greeted him second. They both paused, looking at him. Andrew was stoic as ever but Kevin smiled slightly, climbing out of the pool to greet him.
"Jeremy!" He smiled in response.
"Kevin, Andrew. Nice to see you guys. Have you seen Jean? I can't find him." He asked a little frantic and tired. Andrew scoffed from to pool, pointing a thumb to the corner of the pool room.
"Neil stole him over there, last time I looked." Jeremy, a bit confused, padded over to where Andrew pointed.
And there he was.
Jean always looked more peaceful when he was asleep. The crease between his eyebrows smoothed and his jaw relaxed. He and Neil were so intertwined, it was hard to tell where one stopped and the other began.
The Fox was awake though, presumably an Exy game pulled up on his phone as he lay on Jean's chest. Neil scowled as Jeremy came into view, pressing a finger to lips in a shushing motion. As if Jeremy would ever have the heart to wake Jean up. He looked so cozy there with Neil, surrounded by towels on a pool chair.
"Send him up to room 235 when he wakes." Jeremy whispered. He only gets a nod back before Neil buries back against Jean.
As he walked out, he waved goodbye to Kevin. He headed to his room, smiling and shaking his head.
"Hates Josten my ass."
