The morning sun painted warm hues across the room, its gentle rays slipping through the parted curtains to kiss your cheeks, rousing you from a deep slumber. For a moment, your eyes fluttered open to a world that felt unfamiliar, disoriented, and confused. Your surroundings slowly took shape; you were in Eren's bed, naked, nestled in his chambers, a place you never expected to wake up in.

A rush of fragmented memories flooded your mind, the echoes of last night's confession and the passionate kiss you had shared with Eren. You were left dazed, struggling to reconcile the reality with the dreamlike quality of the evening.

Turning your gaze, you saw the space beside you, now occupied by Eren, who was sound asleep. He lay there, with his long brown hair in slight disarray, his green eyes veiled by the weight of sleep, and a stubbled chin and jawline that emphasized his masculinity. Your heartbeat quickened as you took in the sight, and the memories of last night rushed back to you.

The two of you had confessed your feelings, shared the deepest of your emotions, and made the decision to move forward together. Last night, the passion and vulnerability between you had led to an intimate connection, a bond that transcended words. The realization of what you had done left you both vulnerable and undeniably close. It was only supposed to be a night where the two of you found comfort within his chambers, the crackling fireplace keeping you two so very warm... but no it led to unspeakable acts. Acts of what many could consider true undeniable love.

You couldn't help but smile as you looked at Eren's peaceful expression. He had stayed with you, chosen to be right by your side, his bare skin pressed against yours. It was a testament to the emotions that had stirred within both of you.

As you shifted closer to him, a delicate blush painted your cheeks, and the memories of the previous night filled you with warmth and tenderness. You wiped the sweat off his brows and laid back down within the comfort of Eren's warmth and bed. The shared closeness, and the promise of the future made your heart swell.

You knew that the journey you had embarked on together was filled with uncertainties, but in this moment, as you gazed upon his peaceful slumber, you were reassured by the depth of your connection. The love that had bloomed between you was a force that defied doubt and fear. Nothing could get into that flourishing bond the two of you possessed for one another. So at that moment you laid in bed with him and turned over on your side and hummed in contentment. You grasped the silk pillowcases from under you and just felt yourself melt into the silken sheets of his bed.

The silence enveloped Eren's chambers like a warm, comforting embrace. Suddenly, the bed shifted slightly as Eren's muscular arm encircled your body. His chest pressed against your back, and he nestled his head against your shoulder, leaving a trail of soft kisses. His voice, deep and slightly raspy from sleep, gradually emerged.

"Are you awake?" Eren murmured, his lips still brushing against your shoulder. You responded with a contented smile and turned to face him. "Hello, Darling... you look absolutely stunning."

"Do I?" you replied, your smile mirroring your appreciation of his words. You yawned gently. "I've been awake for a little while now, to be honest... just savoring the moment."

"Really?" He smirked his arms tightening his grasp around you. You turned over and began to run your hands in his hair as the two of you stared at one another. "Was it enjoyable? Hm?" You looked away with a laugh.

"Now why would I tell you that, to uplift that high ego, is that it?" Eren scoffed.

"We've announced our love for one another and you already have quite the attitude." You smiled in response and kissed his lips.
