Kris: It’d been a long day for you. Life was shit, people were even shittier and overall you’d spent the majority of your day feeling overwhelmed. The weather had been getting hotter and hotter, leaving your clothes sticking to your skin and making you feel even more disgusting. You’d come home exhausted, toeing your shoes off and putting your bag down before even thinking about greeting your boyfriend who was somewhere in the apartment. You felt warm arms wrap around you and a face nuzzle into your neck, your body automatically relaxing upon realising it was him. You sighed and turned around in his hold, wrapping your arms around him and snugly making yourself comfortable under his chin. He hadn’t said much; he muttered a soft greeting to you but otherwise let himself be quiet, waiting for you to talk. That’d come eventually, whether it be now, during dinner or later in bed when you’re both ready for sleep, he’d listen and make sure you know you’re heard.

Bojan: He gets being exhausted. He himself is a person who tends to get overwhelmed, tired and just feels upset so he recognises the signs before you do sometimes. When you come home you find fresh flowers in a vase with a card addressed to you as well as your boyfriend coming up to you to pull you in a hug and a kiss. he rocks you two back and forth as he asks about your day but doesn’t pressure you to answer, letting you decide if being held was the only thing you needed at that moment. Later when you’re ready he’ll offer to wash your hair and to let you unwind, perhaps a massage or a cuddling session, whatever it is he’s well equipped and understanding of your needs.

Jan: He senses something’s wrong the moment you reply to his text about dinner with a little less excitement than usual. He ditches the plans for his original dinner idea and makes your favourite meal instead, quickly going to the store to pick up one of your guys’ favourite reds. He gets home before you do and sets up the plates, cleans the kitchen in advance and waits for you to get home with a freshly made dinner. He greets you at the door with a kiss and a hug, letting you rest against him for a while before gently leading you to the dining room so you could maybe vent about your feelings like he knew you usually did. He was a good listener; he’d learned a while ago that you sometimes don’t need a solution but a listening ear and a comforting hold to just get back up in your feet after a long day or after a particularly difficult situation you encountered.

Jure: If there’s one thing he’s good at it’s being innovative. What is something that would make you feel better or something that had been on your mind that would add onto your already pre-existing stress if you had to worry about it? When you come home he reassures you that it’s okay for you to take a nap and that you really need to get some rest, that he’d be fine on his own. In the meantime he assembles that coffee table you’d bought a while back, fixes a shelf and oils some door hinges so they no longer squeak when you open the door. he fixes the living room blinds that were bothering you because they didn’t fully close and spent the second portion of your nap taking out the cardboard box from the coffee table, sweeping the floor from the mess he’d made as well as make sure that you couldn’t tell that he’d turned you apartment into a makeshift construction site. he just hoped it’d make you feel better. gave you a very proud tour of the apartment when you wake up and nods along as he explained how he fixed what. Bathes in the thank you hugs and kisses.
