"I will stand up for you, no matter what you're going through. I'm still on your side..."  
Who? [livejournal.com profile] foundmywayout and [livejournal.com profile] tommyboyk
What? Spousal comfort
When? A couple of days after this
Where? The Karofsky-Kennedy home

It had been a long busy day at work for Tommy, who worked in the office of the Mayor of New York City. There was always something going on that required him to be constantly busy, but it paid well, and helped him and Dave to get their home transformed into the kind of place where they could be ready to bring a baby home. They weren't fabulously wealthy by any means, but they were well enough off to provide a good home for their soon-to-be-born baby, and to make sure that all of his or her needs were met.

But Tommy had honestly been worried lately. Dave hadn't been himself ever since he found out about his friend's illness, and Tommy would never forget the heartbreaking sobs that his husband had cried in his arms that night, and how impossible it was to find a way to comfort him. It was just too much. At their age, they shouldn't have to worry about whether or not a friend was going to die, but Dave was facing that very worry, and it ripped Tommy to pieces not knowing how to make it better.

Still, when he heard his husband's key in the door, he couldn't help the smile that crossed his face, even if there was still worry in his eyes. Meeting Dave at the door, Tommy slipped his arms around his husband's waist and pressed a gentle kiss to his lips. "I warmed dinner up for us. We can eat in the living room if you want. How was your day?"
