Authors Note: Sorry it's so short but it was too much of a sweet moment from Gavin to keep in with how angsty the previous chapter had been.
He found Nines in the kitchen with a fresh cup of coffee made for Gavin, knowing the Detective would be in dire need of something after the stressful few hours. Sitting at one of the barstools at the kitchen counter, Gavin groaned and rubbed his face as Nines took your phone and switched it off completely before sliding it back to Gavin.
"Nines? Uh... listen – uh, thanks for everything today. Didn't mean to rope you in with all this shit."
"You're quite welcome. I'm just relieved to know that Y/N is home."
"Yeah. Me too."
A quiet moment transpired between them as Gavin sipped away at his coffee and Nines running his regular internal checks with his system.
"'M gonna marry her Nines."
The statement came as no surprise to Nines, he was well aware how smitten Gavin was for you, but he hadn't expected to see the tips of Gavin's ears turn pink at the statement. Gavin's face was turned slightly from Nines' complete view, but Nines knew this was something that Gavin was embarrassed to confess but clearly wanted to open up to Nines about.
"I know, Detective."
