    Summary

    “Nesta!” Cassian’s voice carries from the hallway. “Nes, you awake? It’s me! Your husband!”

    “I’m aware of who you are,” she calls back, turning a page.

    “Oh good, you are!” he replies, bright and delighted, like he’s surprised to find her in their own home. He appears in the doorway to the living room with his arms spread wide like he’s expecting a standing ovation, his grin so bright it could power their entire building. His hair has fallen out of the bun he’d left in, dark strands tumbling past his shoulders in complete disarray. His shirt is untucked on one side, sleeves rolled up to the elbows, and there’s a sticker on his chest that says “HELLO MY NAME IS” with “SEXY” written in Rhys’s distinctive scrawl. “I missed you!”

    “I can imagine. You’ve been gone for four hours.”

    “Four hours too long!” He starts making his way around the couch with the exaggeratedly careful steps of someone who’s very aware they’re drunk and trying very hard to appear sober. “That’s like, what, two hundred and forty minutes? Without seeing your beautiful face?”

    —————

    Cassian comes home drunk from a night with the boys and can’t stop confessing his feelings to Nesta.

    Summary

    “Are you…” Nesta started, her voice nothing but a raspy whisper. “Are you real?”

    She said the words as if she couldn’t bear to speak them fully aloud, as if she didn’t quite believe that he was.

    Cassian blinked, brows furrowing. Not once had he ever seen her like this, not even when Elain had been put into the Cauldron, and not even during the war that followed. This was a level of horror he’d rarely seen in anyone, let alone this female, who was stoic until the last moment, always. And so, he heard himself say,

    “I’m real. I’m real, sweetheart. See?”

    Her eyes flicked down to his chest again, as if she didn’t believe him, and he reached for her injured hand gently, moving it so it could rest over his sternum, where his heartbeat rapidly.

    “What is it?” He asked again. “Was it a dream?”

    Her eyes met his, tears still streaming down her face. In a voice that was almost childlike, betraying her own confusion, she asked,

    “You don’t see him?”

    Summary

    “Come here,” he said. So close to a plea. “Everything else aside, just…come here, Nes. I’m still here.”

    He wasn’t—he’d been more distant than ever. Coming to bed late, and leaving for the dining room before she even had the chance to wake up properly. It felt like their last conversation had been ages ago, before the girl fell onto Rhys’ lawn.

    She remembered the night before it all happened. Their last night together: her hands held above her head, and him smiling and whispering words against her neck while he made love to her.

    “You are the most precious thing in the world to me,” he’d said, under the bright moonlight.

    She missed his steady presence, and the physical comfort he gave so easily.

    She missed him.

    ***

    Or, Nesta and Cassian struggle to come back to each other after the events of CC3.
