Work Text:
When Gavin came home, he was absolutely shitfaced. He had a fun night at Tina's birthday, but fun usually meant lots of drinks.
Gavin did not have a clear recollection of coming home, but he did remember Chris, one of his closest friends, driving and being piled in his car with his other friends: Tina, the celebrant and another one of his closest friends, Valerie, Tina's wife, and Sixty, his one of his boyfriend's brothers.
His boyfriend, Nines, who is an android, was waiting for him at home. He had decided to lay back from the party as he greatly disliked crowds. However, he did trust Chris to make sure Gavin did not do anything that would cost his dignity or reputation.
Upon coming home, Gavin actually manages to get up the weird ass set of stairs that he was too lazy too consider changing. Nines had suggested it, but Gavin also happened to think that there were better things to spend money on. The stairs were almost never an issue.
He then continues to crawl into bed with Nines, who is no longer in stasis. Although, the android doesn’t give mind to how his boyfriend smells like alcohol and is clearly not sober. He'll deal with that in the morning.
He falls back into stasis.
However, at 4am, Gavin wakes up: his head is pounding and really needs to pee. He gets up, gives a glance to the stairs, then starts crying, half-awake, in pain, and about to piss himself.
Nines is startled out of stasis by crying, which he recognizes is Gavin’s. He’s sitting down on a step, clearly distressed and still slightly drunk (he came home maybe an hour ago). He asks what’s wrong and gets “stairs” as a response. Smiling, Nines helps him stand then goes on to carry him bridal style down the stairs. After Gavin’s done using the restroom, he carries him back up.
When they’re nestled in bed again, Gavin gives Nines a sleepy smile. He pecks Nines’s lips and wishes him goodnight. Nines smiles back and Gavin’s already snoring very very softly before he could respond.
“Goodnight, my love,” the android says.
