Summary
“Fuck!” he shouts again. It’s not helping him get the door open, but it does make him feel better.
The door to 7B opens and David’s neighbor pokes his head out. He’s dressed in pajamas, his hair rumpled and his eyes sleepy, and David finds it extremely annoying how much that look is doing for him. The neighbor—Peter or Paul or some P name that David couldn’t be bothered to remember—gives him a bemused smile.
David gets locked out of his apartment. His neighbor offers to help.

Summary
Patrick had never given much thought to what a miracle David’s hands are, not until now, as he’s sliding a single gold band over David’s left ring finger. David’s hands are soft and smooth where Patrick’s are rough and calloused, and yet, they’re quick and clever and capable. David’s hands have taken Patrick apart and held him together. Their hands together have built this life up brick by brick.
For the prompt: calloused hands in soft hands

Summary
It’s been one year, four months, and thirteen days since David had a good night’s sleep.
He’s tried everything—melatonin, pot, even some benzos that he scored from Mutt. Hell, he even tried exercise, which Stevie mocked him for mercilessly. But nothing helps. He’s resigned to the fact that he just can’t sleep alone anymore.
Or else, he just can’t sleep without a certain person in his bed.
It’s been one year, four months, and thirteen days since he last said goodbye to Patrick.

It’s been years and he still finds himself thinking how lucky he is to have found this man.
A small, late-night moment of domestic bliss in the kitchen of the cottage.
