Chapter Text
It had been a year.
365 days had passed since Rex found Chad, and he couldn’t believe how different his life was.
They’d retired. They’d both retired. Rex gave up a life of villainy for Chad, and Chad hung up the cape and cowl of his own free will.
Chad kept his little home, for a while, worried about Pebbly adjusting to a new living space. They’d settled on Chad and Pebbly staying for the weekend, every weekend, until they felt the old girl could be moved without stress.
It took six months, and Rex spent every day wishing he could wake up with Chad in his arms every morning, but eventually Pebbly came to love Rex’s mansion— and more importantly his yard— and the two moved in without haste.
Rex felt a hand drop on his shoulder and a kiss pressed to the top of his head.
“Zoning out again?” Chad asked, amused.
Rex turned his head to the side so he could look at his husband and smiled. “Yeah. Sorry about that.”
“Don’t be,” Chad said, pressing another kiss to his forehead. “How about we watch a movie?”
Rex felt his smile grow. “A movie sounds perfect.”
Chad leaned down and kissed him, and Rex kissed back.
He’s never been happier.
