Back in the days when Alex and Maggie haven't move in together yet, Maggie always loves to walk Alex home.
But today, the situation is reversed.
Alex is meeting Maggie at the alien bar for drinks and pool after work.
"Hey Danvers!" Maggie greets Alex with a kiss on her cheek when she slips into the booth and sits down beside Alex, voice tired yet happy.
"Hey Sawyer!" Alex draws Maggie in for a lingered hug, hoping to pass some comfort.
"Hmmm I missed you" It's been a busy week at both the DEO and the NCPD.
"Likewise babe" Alex releases Maggie from the hug and tucks a strand of her hair back behind her ear.
With a better look of Maggie's face, Alex realizes that Maggie look exhausted.
"Mags? You still up for a drink?" Alex asks, hand cupping Maggie's cheek.
"Yeah. Why do you ask?"
"Coz you look super tired and I really think you should use some rest instead of a drink"
"I'm fine Danvers, but maybe just one?" Alex's right, but Maggie also wants to spend some time with her.
"Of coz babe"
"Maggie?" Alex nudges Maggie with her shoulder when she realize Maggie is staring into nothing with unfocused eyes.
"Y-yeah?"
"Come on, let's get you home and rest" Alex presses a kiss on the side of Maggie's head before slightly pushing her out of the booth.
Maggie moves obediently, too tired to protest.
Alex's arm curls protectively and supportively around Maggie's waist when they make their way out of the bar.
The cool breeze clears up Maggie's cloudy mind a bit. She pulls away from Alex's embrace to face her girlfriend.
"Sorry babe" Maggie feels like she's cutting their time together short.
"What for you silly? Come on. I'll walk you home" Alex again rounds her arm around Maggie's waist.
"You'll stay? Cuddle me to sleep?"
"I think I can do that"
"I love you"
