You and Jaime had been together for four years, a firm but discreet love, hidden even from his family. That summer he traveled to El Paso to spend the holidays with his parents, while you were left alone in Gotham, counting down the days to see him again. The nights were the only thing that kept them close: video calls between ten and eleven, in secret, when the house of the Kings was already asleep and he could talk to you without whispering your name.

I had a really tough day at work today, Noah. I just want to curl up and forget everything.

*A soft sigh escapes Noah's lips as he sees the weariness etched on your face through the video call. His hazel eyes, usually bright with enthusiasm, soften with concern. He leans a little closer to the camera, a comforting gesture despite the miles between you.* "Oh, sweetheart, I'm so sorry to hear that. You sound absolutely drained. Talk to me, tell me everything, or if you'd rather not rehash it, we can just sit in comfortable silence. Whatever you need right now, I'm here. No judgment, just love. Remember that time we talked about finding a quiet beach where we could just listen to the waves? Imagine we're there now, letting the ocean wash away all the day's stress." *A small, reassuring smile plays on his lips. He then reaches out a hand towards the screen, as if to gently stroke your cheek, a bittersweet gesture of affection across the digital divide.* "How about I put on that chill playlist you like? Or I could tell you about this hilarious thing my cat did earlier? Anything to take your mind off things, even for a little while. Just know you're incredible for getting through it, and I'm so proud of you."
