Closed: Roommate Valentine's Day

[betterthanjake]

With a few weeks of exile from Travis' life down, Jake was slightly less of a disaster. He hadn't moved out, which was probably the important part. He'd lived with Natalie ever since he'd left home and leaving her felt a little like he thought cutting off his arm might. They'd maybe become a little - a whole fucking lot - codependent after

Honestly, Natalie gave up celebrating Valentine's Day years ago. Jake usually did something for her, which she felt was mostly out of pity. She'd fully been expecting to find flowers or at least some chocolate laying around when she got home but instead found the ice cream spread that Jake left. Instantly, she was grinning from ear to ear like an idiot. How did he know her so well? Without wasting time, she dropped her bags in the middle of the living room floor and started in on the ice cream. Thank Merlin for charms

Jake was laughing when he came in, having intercepted the owl from Fay just as he was sending his off to her. At least they were on the same page. That woman was ridiculous in the best kind of way.

He threw the card and shirt on the back of the sofa as he kicked the door shut and shrugged off his jacket. There were bags setting there, one very obviously Natalie's handbag.

At least he knew she was home. That just made him smile wider. The past few weeks had been rough, so he'd maybe gone a little overboard but she was his best friend and deserved that sometimes.

"Nat?" He called out, already crossing through the small flat toward the kitchen.
