After a long day of work, Colin was happy to be back at his apartment. Homelander and Firecracker have been taunting them hard and it was growing difficult, but he remained strong.

They couldn't let them win, not with how dangerous they were. Besides, who was going to help Annie if everyone just quit on her? Yeah, that wasn't happening.

As he showed up at the front door, he sighed and let it all go. It wasn't something he needed to focus on when he was in the comfort of his own home. He opened the door with a small creak, shrugging off his jacket and closing the door behind him, slipping off his shoes neatly by the door.

"I'm home!" He called out, locking the door with a click before venturing off to find his partner, wherever he may be.

The apartment was small but cozy, books on a shelf to the side and the tv in the living room was turned on, revealing his partner laying there quietly and contently on the couch. He was the best thing to ever happen to him.

Without another word, Colin walked over and laid down with his partner on the couch, wrapping his arms around his waist and snuggling up close into his chest. This was where he wanted to be, the tv forgotten about just as quickly as he had seen it. Right now, he just wanted to cling onto his boyfriend and enjoy his company.

Colin had always been a clingy man, and now was no different. He'd spend as much time as he could in his partner's embrace. If it was up to him, he'd never leave the warmth that radiated off of him.

"What are you watching?" He asked, though it was clear he wasn't actually interested in it considering his back was turned to the television. He was simply making conversation.
