They were laying on the floor. Healy had already questioned the choice of fucking surface like twenty times but sex was fantastic as always and now he just stared up at the ceiling and thought. March right beside him, playing with his unlit cig.
"You make me .. soft" Healy dropped
"I didn't do anything man you already been like this when I got you" Holland giggled
"Oh fuck you! You know what I mean. It's like my drive is aggression and you .. loving it out of me"
"L.. loving it out of you??"
"I couldn't say fucking, sorry"
"It's not like Holly's in here or something"
"She's always here"
He smiled and they made a long eye contact.
"C'mon man.." March was familiar and warm near him and his voice so open and happy. "You know how it goes. We fuck like rabbits for a couple more months and then everything settles up and we fuck more thoughtful and tender.. and.. there was I... Ah, what I'm trying to say is everything is alright, Jack. You are still you and I'm still me and Holly is still Holly you know, and we all are who we are but like.. together"
After this Jackson just hugged him, closed his bear grip around March's chest, heavy and suffocating but so good. Everything he could dream of. So Holland hugged in return, wrapped his arms around Healy's shoulders and breathed in the smell of his hair. He couldn't feel it exactly, but he knew it's there, he felt the warmth and tickling on his cheek and wetness from his own eyes.
"Healy, I love you man. Please, don't leave us"
"What?" Jack pulled away a little to look in March's eyes "What the fuck are you talking about? I would never leave you. How can I leave Holly with a guy who calls himself a detective and can't even snoop, ha?"
March laughed through tears
"Better tell me how can you read my mind so well"
"I know you"
"Thank you. Jack. Really, thank you... " he was crying again
"I got you man"
"Th- than.."
"Now stop it. I'm here for you. And I mean both of you. I want to keep you safe and I will do my best, here's my word. And you better stop thanking me because I'm not doing it for something in return, it's for the three of us"
March sobbed and held him closer
"I love you man"
"I love you too. That's what I'm trying to say. I love you. And my aggression can go fuck itself. If i have to fight somebody, this time I'll do it not out of anger but out of love. For you."
Holland's face became still. He gazed dizzily at Healy's face but at the same time through it.
"Hey?" Jackson broke sudden silence with a soft voice. He watched March's face came to life again.
"Nothing. Nothing.. I just thought" he laughed "I'm so happy right now!"
