As his lids slowly peeled open to reveal the glistening morning light, they only came to see a tent of snowy sheets about his figure and over his head as if it were protecting him. Inhaling sharply as he began to shift from his comfortable position, he tossed the sheets off of his form and squinted once he got a full view of the intense light.

 He propped himself up on his elbows, shuddering at the sudden draft reaching his exposed abdomen, yet he reluctantly widened his eyes to intake his surroundings, just as he had left them the night before. His shirt was tossed neatly over the back of a chair.

He continued to argue with himself whether to stay in bed for an extra five minutes or to get up and use that extra time to tidy up around his home, a familiar perfume wafted over his senses, forcing a small grin to etch onto his features.

 Glancing over to the side, his grin grew in size as he saw your figure laying beside him, utterly motionless other than the steady rise and fall of your abdomen.

Although you had your cheek pressed to the pillow quite ungracefully, he still found beauty in the way you seemed at such a relaxed and innocent state.

His fingertips lightly brushed over your exposed palm, tracing the indents of your skin and memorizing its unique pattern as if it were a vital piece of you he needed to engrave into his mind. You innocently pressed your cheek against the plush milky color of the pillow, allowing your hair to messily fall around your face and onto the mattress to mimic the grace of a lion's mane.

Tongue dragging over his incision-laced lips, he hesitantly raised his hand, brushing the silky locks away from your face as he inhaled shakily, seeming almost nervous despite his practice of the action.

He wrapped his arms around your twitching frame, enveloping you into his comforting embrace as he drew you close to his chest. His name rolled off your tongue, slowly and sweetly as you began taking cautious strides from your dreamland and into reality. The intoxicating scent of his musk surrounded you, a mixture of fresh leather and mint that somehow helped you relax.

You murmured something inaudible, something closer to a groan than anything coherent.

"What time do you have to be there today?"

"Seven."

"What time is it now?"

"Six thirty."

"Do you have to go and get ready now?"

"Mhm..."

Unsatisfied yet understanding with his response, you simply allowed your lids to flutter shut as you pressed a delicate peck to his lips and rolled back over onto your side.

"Come back to me without a single scratch or else I'm going to talk to-"

"Don't worry, I always come back," he said "I gotta stay by your side right?".

"Of course. You don't have a choice."

Convinced by his statement, you burrowed yourself back into your tent of blankets, earning a small chuckle to emit from his lips. "Sweet dreams in your fortress of solitude," he hummed, making sure to tuck you in and press a kiss to your lips.
