Could I get 7 from the kisses list with uhhhhh CHASE AND HENRIK please???
cw(s) for readers: none!! its fluff :ā)
Ā Ā Ā Ā Chase wished he was waking up to birds chirping with sunlight draping over him. But instead, what he woke up to was his poor four-month-old daughter was crying her heart out.
Ā Ā Ā Ā He sighed, sitting up in his bed. āWhat time is it?ā He looked at his window for a clue as to what the time was. It had to be early morning at best, as the moon was still up with the stars. āOf course, Maxine wanted to be an early bird today,ā He chuckles softly to himself. It wasnāt every day that Maxine woke him up so early. In fact, she slept in a whole lot, just like her dad! Though, he was trying to fix that (purely for her sake.)
Ā Ā Ā Ā He slung his feet over, feeling the cruel wrath of the cold wooden floor. Shivers snuck up on his skin, making him retract his feet for a moment. He slowly places his foot on the floor, wishing he had socks to protect him. He presses on and swiftly walked across the room to his daughter, where the carpet was able to keep his feet safe.
Ā Ā Ā Ā This is when Chase begins to panic. Maxine wasnāt in her crib.
Ā Ā Ā Ā His heart and stomach started to twist with the worst sense of dread. He darts for the window, seeing if maybe he left it open. Much to his surprise, it was shut and locked securely. He immediately turns around to leave the room to further search the house, but he ends up bumping into something- no, someone. Before Chase gets the chance to start thrashing or yelling, they begin to speak.
Ā Ā Ā Ā "Good morning, Chase.ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā A painful sigh leaves chest as he covers his fast-beating heart. āGood⦠Good morning, Henrik."Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Now that Chase calmed down, he was able to recognize Henrikās⦠er, silhouette. In his defense, he only lived with him for about a month now and rarely saw him in the house, as he was a doctor. Now that he thought about it, he never saw Henrik in other than his work clothes⦠Well, up until now, at least. A small babble got his attention, making his eyes dart to who Henrik was cradling in his arms. Maxine!
Ā Ā Ā Ā He began to connect all the dots and wanted to cry either out of relief or because he began from cracking under the stress that he had to deal with under the last ten minutes.Ā "Oh, wow- um, did she wake you up?ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Henrik sighs, starting to bounce Maxine in his arms. āYes. But thatās alright, donāt worry.ā He laughs softly. āIt, um⦠It feels nice, to calm down a baby at ungodly hours of the night again.ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Chase smiles awkwardly and nods his head. He didnāt know much of Henrikās life, but he did know that he got custody of his children every other weekend. āYeah, Iā¦Ā You kinda scared me there, you know?ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā "I thought you heard me come in?ā He frowns at him slightly. "I suppose my footsteps are quietā¦ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā "Oh, um⦠I didnāt even hear the door open!ā He laughs nervously, and Henrik chuckled along with him. "Not with all that crying, anyway.ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā He nods and looks down at Maxine, then back at him. āI assume you would like to hold the little one?ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Chase nodded quickly, scooping her from Henrikās arms, careful not to make her upset and go into another fit. He planted a soft kiss on her temple, freezing up when she started to stirā¦
Ā Ā Ā Ā A sigh of relief escapes him and Henrik when Maxine relaxed again, drifting off in what hopefully would be a deep sleep. Right now, a nice long nap seemed like the best thing since sliced bread to the poor man. He carefully drifts over to her crib and sets her down, draping her blankie over her sleeping body. He carefully began to sneak away from her and back where he stood by Henrik.
Ā Ā Ā Ā "You got it from here?ā His voice came as a gentle whisper.
Ā Ā Ā Ā "Yeah. I sure hope I do, at least.ā Chase sighed doubtfully. āThank you, by the way. You didnāt-ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā "Itās fine,ā Henrik interjected. "Youāre doing amazing consideringā¦Ā well, your situation.ā He rests his hands on Chaseās shoulders. āI barely knew what I was doing when I had my first child! I just think you should be proud of yourself, is what Iām trying to say.ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Chase couldnāt help but smile at his words. It felt nice being told that, especially after the whole⦠fiasco, from earlier this month. He mumbled an awkward 'thank you,ā and made sure to make it loud enough for him to hear.
Ā Ā Ā Ā "I think Iām going back to bed since you seem fine alone,ā Henrik said. "I only got three hours of shut-eye from the last⦠two? Two, days. Goodnight, Chase.ā He planted a small kiss on his head and left, easy as that. He didnāt bother to question him, as he had found himself aching to curl up under his sheets again.

āwestern media wont talk about this but the vietnamese government is helping citizens fight the coronavirus by offering free /proper/ meals for people in quarantine areas and free groceries/necessities for a whole neighborhood in lockdownā
āāāāāāāā
ā- here people will be placed in quarantine due to travel history, showing symptoms or recent contact with current patients - the neighborhood in lockdown is because the 17th patient, possibly a āsuper spreaderā, resided thereā
āsome korean travelers are also in quarantine so they were given korean meals because what if they arenāt used to vietnamese foodā
āi ran out of characters but this is also meant to poke fun at how the usa and some european nations respond to this outbreak, both their government and people. anw if you constantly think of countries in the global south with your shallow eurocentric bias then karma will get you.ā
āMuting this now reach me through DM if you need to! Appreciate all the good sentimentsā
āyour gov may be shitty but extend your appreciation and support to doctors & healthcare workers on the frontline of this crisis! if you cant wear masks, wash hands often, avoid touching MEN (Mouth Eyes Nose), and avoid crowds (PLEASE). the system is in shambles so be proactiveā
āāāāāāāā
āThe Vietnam government makes sure the neighbors of the āsuper spreaderā number 17th has enough food for 14 days. The citizens in quarantine be making friends, cleaning up the place together, giving out roses for women patients for International Women day, even fall in love lol~ā
