Work Text:
The night air was cool as you ushered Foggy outside of Josie’s and started the journey back to his apartment. He stumbled slightly on the step down but gathered his bearings with a proud smile.
“Alright, Foggy, let’s go.” you laughed, shaking your head at your boyfriend’s antics. It was nice to see him let loose after working so hard on such a high-profile case with Matt and Karen.
Foggy stopped in his tracks and threw his arm around your shoulder. “I love you, y/n. Did you know that?” he asked.
Looking into his eyes, you saw the sincerity there even in his inebriated state. “I do know, Foggy.” you told him gently. “And I love you too.”
The grin that spread across his face at your words lit up like a billboard. “I love you so much that I would do anything for you.”
“Oh, is that so?” you asked, as the two of you continued on down the sidewalk, hands down linked swinging back and forth.
Foggy nodded wordlessly and leant his head against your shoulder. The two of you walked silently for a few moments before Foggy looked up to the sky and stopped in his tracks as though he had the greatest idea in the history of the world.
“I really would do anything, y/n. Just name it. What do you want? You want the moon? Just say the word and I’ll throw a lasso around it and pull it down.” he told you, ready to do so at your word.
You couldn’t help the giggle that slipped past your lips as you looked up at the full moon then back down at Foggy. Yes, Foggy’s actions and words may have been exaggerated, but you also knew that even though Foggy might be a bit bashful tomorrow morning by his words, they would be just as true.
“The whole moon? I don’t know about that.” you played along. “But I appreciate the gesture nonetheless, though I think a simple kiss on the cheek would be sufficient.” you suggested, leaning your cheek out towards Foggy.
He complied happily before falling against your shoulder. “Let’s get you home there, George Bailey.” you teased. “I think some sleep will do you some good, and then we’ll see about lassoing the moon tomorrow.”
