    Summary

    After a gruelling ten hour PR junket and gala, Charles returns to their apartment completely drained. His social battery is empty, his jaw aches from faking smiles, and he doesn't have a single word left to give. Luckily, Carlos doesn't need words to know exactly how to take care of him.

    A quiet evening of truffle risotto, heavy rain against the glass, and the absolute relief of surrendering total control to someone else.

    Summary

    rafael's sound asleep in charles' lap when he finally feels eyes on him. lo and behold, in the doorway stands carlos, arms crossed with his sleeves folded up. he swallows around nothing, glancing back down at his sleeping son. "you missed dinner," he says, as neutrally as he can manage, which isn't very much at all. "and the match, too."

    carlos strides over until he's standing right in front of charles and now he has to crane his neck up to look at him. he swoops rafa up into his arms, and his baby doesn't even flinch, snuggling more into his father's neck. "was he very upset?" he asks charles. "did he miss me?"

    "yeah," he says simply.

    there's a fire in carlos' eyes, the same ones he's passed down to rafael and sophie. "and you?"
