It's storming, which always sets Reggie off. He guesses it shouldn't matter so much now, because he's a ghost, and can poof around if he doesn't want to walk in the rain, and even walking in the rain doesn't make him wet, since the raindrops fall right through him. Plus, he can't get struck by lightning, he assumes.

Sometimes Reggie feels quiet. It's hard to explain it any way other than that; he's looked for a word his whole life and never found one, this sensation of curling up inside his own head and falling silent. He's usually so energetic, so talkative, so intense (too much of all of these things for a lot of people, he's found, he just can't help it) — so it's strange when he has these moments where his head feels fuzzy, his mouth gets jumbled, and rather than to chat his friends to (another) death, or bounce off the walls, he just wants to sit.

It hasn't happened so much since they died, and when it does happen, he often poofs out and finds Ray, pottering somewhere around the house or working on his computer. Reggie will curl up nearby, letting Ray's presence weigh on him, keep him grounded.

(It doesn't work as well as it used to. Ray's not the same as — anyway).

He just hasn't wanted the boys to have to worry about it. Luke loves him to pieces, Reggie knows that, but Luke's not great at feelings to begin with, and he's even worse when there's nothing proactive he can do to help, so Reggie knows that just sitting there would drive Luke crazy.

And Alex loves Reggie too, and Reggie knows that as well, but he and Alex never crossed these lines when they were alive. Never pushed past bickering and reassuring, bouncing between the two things in a rhythm only Alex could master, on one hand never hurting Reggie's feelings but on the other never pushing him for too much disclosure.

Maybe he should ask Alex. He just doesn't want him to worry.

So it's raining. Reggie's sitting on Julie's window seat, gazing out her window, knees pulled up to his chest and chin resting on his arms. Julie's at school and Ray's at work and Reggie didn't know where else to go to feel quiet. As many times as she's given them the boundaries talk, Julie softly told him once that if he ever needs to, of course, he can come to her room. It feels safe in here, the same way Julie feels safe, warm, and nothing like Reggie's own childhood room.

There's a knock on the door. Reggie lifts his head and frowns to himself. Julie and Carlos should both still be at school, and Ray's at work. Tia Victoria wouldn't come up here if she dropped in, because she knows they're all out.

"Yeah?" he calls, hesitant.

"Hey. Uh. Can I come in?"

Reggie'd know Alex's hesitant, comforting voice anywhere.

"Sure," he calls back, wincing a little at how despondent his own voice sounds.

Alex physically opens the door to come in, and closes it behind him because he's the weirdest ghost in the whole entire world. Then he puts his hands in his pockets and looks up at Reggie through his fringe, and oh, no. Alex's eyes are so gentle, analytical, concerned.

Reggie's seen that look in them before but rarely aimed at him. Almost always at Luke, when the fights with his parents were bad; sometimes at Julie, in the time since they've met her; occasionally, a long time ago, Alex would sometimes look that way at — anyway.

"I'm fine?" Reggie offers, automatically, and it comes out meek and small. When Alex's brows pull together into a confused frown, Reggie realises that Alex hadn't even asked yet, and shuts his mouth.

"...Okay," says Alex. It's deeply sceptical. The familiarity makes Reggie's shoulders relax, a little, less out of his depth than he was with Alex's gentle look before. Alex says, in the stage whisper that's been an in-joke between them for as long as Reggie can remember, "What are you doing up here, anyway?"

"Julie said I could." Reggie's voice is not a stage whisper, it's a real whisper. He doesn't mean it to be like that. He also knows that what he said offers no real explanation, but Alex goes ah and nods as if it does.

Crossing the room, Alex slumps onto the other side of the window seat, one leg hanging off, toes still on the ground. Glances out the window. "It's pouring out there, huh."

Reggie nods. Puts his chin back on his arms and hopes that's enough of an answer. He feels fuzzier again, muted like someone is twisting his volume dial down and it's out of his control, or like he's a TV channel that's only picking up snow. He can feel Alex looking at him, but he doesn't return it, doesn't want eye contact at that moment.

"I know when we were alive," Alex begins slowly, and Reggie thinks here we go, "that storms made you feel weird. And, uh, that Bobby would—" Reggie closes his eyes against the hurt in his chest at Bobby's name. He doesn't know if it's grief, or anger, or something else entirely. Alex must notice, because his sentence drops off, and instead he just murmurs, "Oh, Reg."

Reggie swallows, tries to find his voice, tries to say how much he misses Bobby even though he should be furious, and how Bobby always used to sit with him no matter how quiet he got, understanding and stoic and solid, just his being there like a weighted blanket on Reggie's mind, soothing and secure. He tries to say how much storms scare him because they always meant being stuck in the house no matter what was going on downstairs, meant he couldn't just jump out his window and go wandering around the neighbourhood or down by the beach when his parents screaming got too loud. But when he goes looking for his voice, it isn't there.

A hand settles, very softly, on his elbow. When Reggie blinks, Alex isn't looking right at him, but instead at Reggie's arm. Rubs his hand from Reggie's elbow up to his shoulder, and back down. Alex's hand is big and he feels so warm even through Reggie's flannel. "I know I'm not Bobby," Alex says. "I don't have the magic touch for this like he did. But that doesn't mean I don't want to be here for you, when things are bad, okay?"

Reggie wants to croak they're not that bad, but finds himself choked up, so he doesn't. It just feels so nice, not to be alone. To have company.

"I can't do anything to help, really, but can I sit with you?" Alex asks, and meets Reggie's gaze this time, his eyes clear blue and hopeful. "Til the storm passes?"

Reggie has known Alex long enough to read everything in his expression — recognition, worry, love. It's not just that Alex is company, he realises. It's not just that Alex being here makes Reggie not alone. It's that it's Alex, goofy graceful snarky Alex, who Reggie has known forever and would trust with anything. Who only offers himself up when he means it.

So Reggie nods. Shuffles over so he can rest his head on Alex's chest. Alex lets out a breath and puts an arm around his shoulders, fingertips tracing a pattern on Reggie's arm.

They watch the rain fall outside the window.

[caswellseyes]

halfway in love

this is my @jatp-secretsanta gift for @relighthatspark! hope you like it :) the full fic is on ao3, i’ll put a link in the reblogs!

“This really cool person asked me out!” Reggie exclaims, waving his phone in Julie’s face, displaying a phone number. “They had this really cool tie dye crop top and super pretty hair and they winked at me and gave me their number and they said they liked my flannel and we’re going out for ice cream tomorrow cause we both think coffee dates are overrated!”

Julie immediately jumps up and starts dancing around with Reggie, clearly overjoyed for her friend. Luke is quick to join in, wrapping himself around Reggie and chanting in his ear. And then there’s Alex, still sitting on the couch, feeling like he’s in one of those movies where the music cuts out and all you see is people laughing and dancing, surrounding the protagonist who has horror dawning on their face.

Look, he knew this day would come. Of course someone would be smart enough to ask Reggie out at some point. Reggie is smart and kind and funny and beautiful and super talented, and Alex might be a little biased because he’s been halfway in love with his best friend for years, if not longer, but he knows these are facts. Reggie is a catch and if Alex wasn’t so sure that Reggie doesn’t like him like that at all, he would have asked him out months ago.

Once you get this you have to say 5 things you love about yourself, and then send this to 10 of your favourite followers/mutuals/blogs. SPREAD THE LOVE 💝💝💝

now you must do the self love thing!!!

Thank you for the difficult task of thinking of five things I love about myself 😂❤️

I have a good memory, generally speaking, which comes in useful sometimes

I’m good at music and I especially like that I can sight-read pretty well

I’m good at writing

As annoying as it can be, I actually like how I get obsessed with really into certain things or certain fandoms or whatever

I like my eyes - bit of a different one to the other things I’ve put lmao but I’ve actually always thought I’ve got nice eyes

I’m just going to tag ten lovely people because sending asks gets confusing when it comes to sideblogs and main blogs and whatever so here, in no particular order:

@penguin-writes-books @willex-owns-my-heart @williexmercer @nickalicious @nicksreggies @star-astro @bexxy @relighthatspark @flynnandcarrie @dustin-ghoulsby

I think that’s ten. No pressure to do this, lovelies, just know that you are all wonderful people and deserve to love yourselves <3
