huxley is finishing up a few things before they’re supposed to head out, having planned a nice night out for them in celebration of their first month together. he knows it wasn’t the easiest month, but some relationships just start out rocky. at least that’s what he tells himself. he’s sat at her kitchen table, waiting for them to finish getting ready and hux is finding himself getting a little impatient, “baby, are you almost ready?” he calls to them, leaning back in his chair as he waits.
