A/N: Hi, so I've had a few drabbles floating around in my head and I decided it was time to get them down on paper (kind of). I've already written another two of them but they are the ones I want to put nearer the end so bear with me. More updates to come though! Reviews are really appreicated as I'm fairly new to writing drabbles and I want to know what you guys think. Also if you have any prompts for drabbles you want written, I might be able to add a few of those here too! Thank You XO

Luke never could understand how Nick could spend so much time on one game.
It didn't matter how busy Nick was supposed to be, Even with the barest fifteen minutes of free time, Luke could find him sat on his bed, headset on and controller in hand, shouting orders down the mic. Sometimes, Luke brought round a six pack to Nick's house, picking up the spare controller so they could play against each other.
Othertimes, he would bring his pencils and sketch pad, sitting down with his back leaning against the foot of the bed, his lips curving upwards into a smile as a shout of victory from above interrupted his shading.
Even when they were working, Nick would never shut up about that game. He would happily talk about his escapades for hours as they went about their jobs, only stopping when his hair was soaked through from the heat of the sun and he had to go sit in the shade to cool back off, pushing his damp hair back repeatedly from his forehead.
When the parcel came in the post, two days before Nick's birthday, Luke knew he had found the perfect gift.
Nick's eyes lit up when he tore the paper off the red hat, his finger tracing the game's logo embroidered in yellow onto the front.
'Thanks man!' He responded a huge grin on his face as he jammed it eagerly onto his head. 'I'm never taking this off!'
Luke smiled.

Nick loved going round to Luke's house for dinner.
He'd never outright said it, but Luke could tell by the way Nick's mood changed around his family: how his smiles became more frequent, his laughs easier.
Every Thursday without fail, Nick would ring the doorbell to Luke's house to be greeted by Luke's smiling mother, handing her a small bunch of flowers as he passed.
In the main room, he would find Luke sat on the floor, playing board games with his younger sisters, who giggled and beamed at Nick as he sat down besides them. Luke's father would wave at him from the kitchen, grinning as he diced carrots with a giant knife.
Luke gave Nick the best smile though. Nick would join in the games until dinner was ready, then they ate quietly together, making only small conversation.
After dinner the two of them took the opportunity to escape up to Luke's bedroom.
Luke would always apologise to Nick about having to spend so much time with him and his sisters, but Nick didn't mind: they were family.
