After a long day of doing absolutely nothing, you and Tartaglia decide to relax your bodies by cuddling
🌸 Fluff Saga: Episode 2
-------------
It's been a few months since Tartaglia and I had started dating. Despite the differences in our careers and schedules, the two of us managed to make this relationship work.
The one day that we both had off this week was a loud thunderstorm that shook the ground with its loud crashes of lightning.
I snuggled closer to Tartaglia, his warm body acting as a comfort zone to soothe my uneasiness. I disliked thunderstorms. I disliked loud sounds in general, my ears were far too sensitive for them.
I felt an arm snake its way around my waist and hoist me up. I giggled as I felt myself plop into Tartaglia's lap. I smiled as my (E/C) orbs locked with his ocean blue orbs.
"Hmph, I'm boooooooored, " I moaned, hugging Tartaglia close to me and pressing against him. He wrapped his arms loosely around my waist and hummed.
"What do you want to do then?"
"Hmmm, I dunno.. anything that involves spending time with you seems fine to me. After all, I've made it my goal to stare at your cute face for as long as I can today."
"Wouldn't a picture last longer?"
"You can't sit still enough for me to paint you.."
He chuckled, burying his face in my neck. I thought for a bit about some stuff that we'd both be interested in that involved working together.
"Hmm," he hummed softly, lifting his head, "Since we have the whole day to ourselves and it's not like we can go outside in this downpour, how about some cuddling?
I huffed, pulling away from the hug to look at his face as I answered the question.
"I suppose... that there is nothing wrong with it, " I answered, giggling softly at the small blush that found itself dusting his cheeks
"Tar-tag-li-aaaaaaaaa!" I moaned, playfully stressing each syllable in my boyfriend's alias as I tugged slightly on his shirt collar.
"(N/N)!~" He sang, pulling me closer to him and using one of his favorite pet names for me. I blushed as he smirked up at me.
I kissed the tip of his nose and then hugged him. Small moments like these felt great when we weren't interrupted by any of the other 10 harbingers.
His arms tightened around my waist as he relaxed into the hug, burying his face in my chest, and letting out a relieved sigh.
I played with his beautiful ginger hair, feeling the soft locks slide through my fingers. I lightly tugged on his hair, causing his head to snap up at an alarming rate.
"(Y/N), what was that for?" he questioned, pouting at my amused expression.
I cupped his face in my hands and brought it closer to my own face, a small smile graced my features.
"Sorry, Ajax, I couldn't help it, " I giggled, his name sliding off my tongue playfully and easily. He whistled slightly as I said his name.
"You're not mad at me, are you?" I asked, feigning guilt. He chuckled his soft, airy chuckle as he looked me right in the eyes, his beautiful ocean blue eyes wore a soft expression, one fitting of an angel.
"Of course I'm not mad, why would I be mad?" He chuckled, sliding his hand playfully up my shirt. I blushed as he wrapped his hands around me again.
He picked me up, carrying me carefully to our shared bedroom. Carefully maneuvering his way towards the bed, he laid me down carefully in the soft, fluffy domain of the bed before laying down next to me.
I snuggled up under him, wrapping my arms around his waist as he did the same, and we laid there, enjoying each other's presence.
"Hey (Y/N)?" Ajax broke the silence, calling my name softly. I hummed, letting him know that I was still awake and listening.
"Why did you choose me?"
I paused, wondering what he meant by that.
"What do you mean...?"
"I mean, why did you choose me when you had so many other men; men who did plenty of good deeds in their lives. Why choose me over them?"
I thought about it. Why did I choose him? He wouldn't be satisfied with the "It just felt right" answer. So I attempted to explain it better.
"Well, none of those other men gave me an adrenaline rush, or felt so unpredictable. Most of those men were either too good, or hiding something."
"You were open about who you were and most of what you did. Your unpredictability made you never appear boring. In fact, that was what drew me into you."
"You have times where you're mischievous and reckless, which made me want you. And then you have times, like now, where you're an absolute angel, which makes me want to not let you go"
"Either way, I made the right choice in confessing a few months ago, hehe," I giggled, hugging him close to me and breathing in his minty scent. He was wearing the cologne I got him for his birthday last month.
He pulled me closer, resting his chin softly on the top of my head. His breathing was syncronized with my own. I closed my eyes as I relaxed into the blankets and the sheets.
"Good night, (N/N)~" Ajax yawned, his voice laced with sudden exhaustion.
I nuzzled into his chest, my body exchanging warmth with his own.
"Good night, my angel, " I sighed, drifting off to sleep with him, our breathing steady and more in sync than ever before.
