Chapter Text
Jet Star was barely two steps into the diner before their vision became obscured by a flurry of shocking red hair. They stumbled back into the door, winded as Party Poison threw themself at them.
“Hey, love,” Jet gasped, wrapping their arms around Party.
There was no response from Party, he tucked his head to Jet’s chest and squeezed them tighter.
“You miss me or something?” Teased Jet lightly.
“Didn’ stop mopin’ th’ whole time you w’re gone,” Fun Ghoul informed Jet from the booth he was sitting in.
Neither of the two ‘joys at the door acknowledged Ghoul. Jet slid one hand up to rest in Party’s hair, holding them tight. They knew that Party was listening to their heartbeat, they did this every time they got back from a long run.
After a minute, Party loosened their grip on Jet’s torso and looked up at them properly. Only for a second, though. Then they pushed up onto their toes to peck Jet on the lips and flash them a small smile.
“Welcome home.”
Jet returned the smile tenderly, they swiped a thumb over Party’s cheekbone before pulling him into a deeper kiss, not as deep as they would have liked, but Fun Ghoul was right there and probably would have had something suggestive to say about it.
Even still, Party was out of breath when Jet broke the kiss.
“Good to be back,” they smiled.
