As promised, here is the little Evak ficlet I was writing.  It’s not beta read at all, just an impulse thing I decided to throw out into the world.  So any mistakes are absolutely mine, and I’d appreciate if anyone wants to point them out to me.  This is one of the fluff prompts from back when I asked for them, and is long overdue because of that, but I hope you enjoy even if it is late!

“Snow lives like we do.”

It’s freezing when Isak finally makes his way into their apartment after a long and shitty day of school and work.  He’s the first one home, and so he bears the brunt of the iciness of their home.  This is the one downside of living alone with Even: no-one else is around to keep the place warm when they’re out.  So here he is, shivering as he potters around, turning on the wall heaters with fumbling fingers.  He’s focused on the small irritations that come with winter.  The too-cold rooms, the freezing noses, the numb hands.  It all adds up to an unpleasant mess, making him grumble as he works.

Even breezes into the room just after Isak is done and has huddled under a woolen blanket on the couch.  He’s loud and cheerful, his laugh booming out and his voice excited as he bursts through the door.

“Isak!  It’s snowing!  Isak! Come look!”

Isak rolls his eyes, but he can’t help but be pulled from his irritation by the enthusiasm Even is showing, smiling at his antics.  Even strides across the small room and throws the doors to their tiny balcony open, sending a blast of frigid air into the room and losing the tiny bit of heat Isak had managed to coax out of the heater near the door.

“Fuck that’s cold!” Isak complains, burying his nose under the blanket.  It’s not exactly warm under the covers, but it’s staved off a small amount of the cold air and is his only protection from the rough bite of the elements.  He’s unwilling to move from the security of this blanket, but Even is insistent, dragging the rough wool away from Isak’s body and hauling him to his feet.
