Edward x Reader [ Cuddle Buddy ]

"Don't move a muscle"

"But-"

"No. It's too risky for you to move"

" But (Y/N)....I shoulder really get going...can't we cuddle sometime after?" Edward said with a little sigh escaping his lips, the two of us were laying in bed with the curtains drawn so the morning sunlight wouldn't reach us. With Edward finally home, I wasn't going to have him slip away to some crazy pirate adventure so easily. I kept my arms firmly wrapped around his body with my cheek pressed against his chest, listening to his heart beat. For some odd reason, listening to Edward's heart was sort of calming, in a odd way. He released a sigh, shifting underneath my weight and the blankets. He had said he wanted to head out today, to check on the ship to make sure everything was alright for his departcher.

But I haven't seen Edward in what felt like forever, and staying at his island in this big mansion basically by myself wasn't exactly pleasing. I am left with nearly nothing to do expect roam around the island and just being up right stupid. I much rather join Edward on his cool pirate assassin trips and nearly getting killed but sadly he says No (Y/N) it's too dangerous and then goes on about how he couldn't bare the thought of me being hurt or whatever. It's nice and all but when you hear it exactly 15 times, even after proving you can shoot off a pistol without hitting anyone, you tend to get a bit frustrated about it. So today is gonna be a stay in bed day, if I can't go with him then he can at least give me this one day.

"We can't cuddle afterwards because I'm pretty sure you'll spend most of your time with that bloody ship...." I muttered, my arms tightening around him when he began to move again. I cast a glance up to those eyes, his blonde hair all messy and his lips pulled in a little pout. But he settled down after a intense staring contest, his arm resting around my shoulders and pulling the blankets further over us. I let out a happy sigh, trailing my nails down his chest and in little patterns. He goes nuts when I do that, the feel of skin on skin or rather my skin on his. I enjoyed it, not just for the sexual pleasure but also because it was just so comforting. The smell of sea that always lingered around him, the sun kissed skin and the tattoos that I loved to trace. The sound of his heart beating was soothing and just...it was comforting to have him here. And to not be alone anymore, trapped on this island to just wait out for Edwards next letter to come.

We were silent after that, just laying in bed, cuddling with each other. The wind knocked against the windows and the curtains swayed slightly to give way to some sunlight through the curtains. Just me and him, sometimes he would talk but it would be a whisper as if I was sleeping and he didn't want to wake me. I think at one point he thought I was asleep but didn't want to move. Didn't want to disturb me. He just scooted down so he could press against me more comfortably, whispering in my ear. His breath tickling my cheeks and making my nose twitch slightly. He would chuckle and let his fingers dance across my shoulders and face. Like he was making a map of my body. Just like one of his treasure maps...

And it was just the two of us in that world of silence.

Authors note

Hey~! So I somehow found the time to type up a short, yet fluffy story of the reader and Edward cuddling in bed. I don't know if I have ever done a story like this one before but I don't care. I thought I should get back into the swing of things considering winter break is coming very soon ( In fact as soon as I'm done with my projects and my math final next week I'm free  so I'll have a lot more time to get things done. And I'll be able to continue with this story and also even American Huntress. Sorry if this story seems a bit rusty, I haven't played AC4 in a while

Speaking of AC4 I wanna give a shout out to Missymay82  because she has a story based on AC4 called Twisted Time. Go check it out if you are in the mood for pirates and Edward Kenway.
