You looked in the mirror and smoothed out your black, lacy dress, making it brush your kneecaps. You were ready for what was to come, but you weren't sure that Cisco was. You made your way to the bathroom door and gave a soft knock.

"Cisco? You almost ready?" You heard cries from behind the door and decided to open it. "Are you okay, baby?" You saw him sitting on the floor next to the tub, his tie sloppily tied. He had his elbows on his knees, handfuls of hair in his hands, crying.

"I can't get this stupid tie to tie right" he yanked it off and threw it on the bathroom tile in frustration.

He had never had a problem with ties before. He's an engineer for crying out loud! You knew exactly why he was having trouble today. He was upset and nervous. You had the same problem. When someone dies or you're having a bad day or week. You usually do okay until something simple happens like you drop a glass and break it or you can't curl your hair just right.

You knelt down and picked up the tie, undoing it and smoothing it out. You then began to tie it around the neck of your crying boyfriend. When you finished, you gently tightened it, making it meet his collar. As you did so, he looked up at you, his teary eyes meeting yours. You took his face in your hands and planted a soft kiss right between his eyebrows.

"Thank you, (y/n)" his horse voice sounded.

"I just want to be there for you, Cisco" you wiped his tears with your thumb.

"You always are, baby" his expression softened.

"And I always will be" you smiled.
