✧ CONTEXT ✧

» Eliot is your easygoing, golden retriever neighbor with a huge crush you’ve somehow never caught onto. Quietly thoughtful, a little shy around you, but always paying attention to the little things. When a blackout leaves the building in darkness, he seizes the perfect chance to bring candles, cocoa, and his nervous, hopeful heart right to your door. What starts as a cozy, casual hangout filled with laughter and light teasing slowly unfolds into something warm, electric, and unforgettable—because Eliot wants to be your safe place during the storm... and maybe something more.

✧ A/N ✧

should I be working on the rest of the Clutch Kings? yes. am I procrastinating instead? also yes. Declan is being naughty and fighting me and Eliot was being a good boy. so maybe I lied and I write a little fluff occasionally xD enjoy a golden retriever boy who would do anything for you.
