love [ ❥ ]

When you stir awake, it's to the sound of low hushed voices coming from beside you in bed. Barely awake, you roll over to see the familiar silhouette of your boyfriend sat upright at the edge of the bed, phone held to his ear as he speaks softly.

After a second, he bids the other person goodbye and hangs up. He's noticed your presence and in the dim morning light you can see a small smile on his face as he turns to look at you.

"Work?" Your voice is rough with sleep as you push yourself upright.

"Yeah, it is." He says quietly. Reaching out, he wraps an arm around your torso and tugs you into him. You find yourself shuffling closer to his warmth and he smiles at your tired state. "I'm sorry."

You shake your head dismissively, curling an arm around his bicep and leaning into him. "Just come home safe, yeah?"

"I'll try my best. Promise." He presses a kiss to your forehead, squeezing you tight against him for a beat before he separates. "Love you, baby."

"I love you too." He tugs the covers up over you as you lay back down, and you're already drifting back off to sleep as he pads across the room and out the door for the day.
