Fandom Snowflake Challenge (Day 6)
Day 6
In your own space, create a fanwork. A drabble, a ficlet, a podfic, or an icon, art or meta or a rec list. A picspam. Something.
So it HAD to be a drabble.
The Love In His Eyes
He can cover his mouth with a hand to hide a smile. The distance of a phone link can disguise butterflies, an offhand quip to reassure himself that his voice remains level, that he's holding onto decorum. He's not afraid of sentiment, not anymore, but he gets the sense Finch finds it unseemly. John lifts the lid only when Harold needs it, a reminder that Reese needs him, that he is his 'someone new'.
When their gazes meet, it all surfaces. There's no burying everything he feels. Harold's eyes drink it in and reflect his love back to him, multiplied.
