Jerome was in his cosy dorm room, enjoying the lazy Saturday. He felt a sense of tranquillity and freedom from the usual commitments. The open window allowed a warm breeze to flow through, bringing fresh air into the room. The sunlight spilt in, casting a comfortable glow on everything, Jerome lays happily half hugging his pillow where he missed his girlfriend, she was only upstairs in her own dorm room in Anubis house... but he still missed her. But he didn't need to miss her long
"Psst" Y/ns little voice whispers,
It caught Jerome's attention, "Y/n?" he called out softly being careful not to wake Alfie, a smile already forming on his lips. Jerome's heart melted at the sight of Y/n kneeling on the rug, wearing her pyjamas, looking up at him with innocent eyes. He chuckled softly and reached out, ruffling her hair affectionately. "Good morning, sleepyhead. What are you doing on the floor?" he asked.
"I was being sneaky," she whispered resting her chin on his mattress,
Jerome chuckled softly, "Trying to be sneaky, huh?" he teased lightly, reaching down to gently pinch her cheek. "Why are you being sneaky, hm?"
"because I wanted to come to see you without getting in trouble," she said softly
Jerome chuckled again, a mixture of amusement and affection in his eyes. "Well, you're here now," he teased playfully. "And you didn't get caught."
"So... Could... Could I?" She asked tenderly tugging on his duvet
Jerome smirked, "Hmm... I don't know," he said dramatically, pretending to hesitate. "You're not supposed to be here, you know. But since you were so 'sneaky,' I suppose I can let you climb in."
she giggled and moved under the duvet,
Jerome chuckled as he watched Y/n disappear under the covers and slither up to the top of the bed, her head popping out beside his own. "There you are," he said, his voice soft and warm as he put his arm around her, pulling her close. "All snuggled up under the covers, huh?"
she nodded and nuzzled up with him happily rubbing her nose against his shirt
Jerome chuckled softly, He wrapped his arm around her, pulling her closer, enjoying the warmth of her body against his. He leaned down and planted a soft, affectionate kiss on the top of her head. "You're like a little koala," he said, continuing the playful teasing.
"a koala?"
Jerome chuckled and nodded, his eyes gleaming playfully. "Yeah, a koala," he explained, squeezing her affectionately. "You're clinging to me like a koala clings onto a tree trunk. And you're just as cute as one too, with those big, innocent eyes and that adorable nose rub."
"... Ohh, does that mean I get to eat you?" She giggled playfully bitting his arm,
Jerome laughed out loud at her playful response. "Hey, hey, hey!" he exclaimed, pretending to be shocked. "No eating allowed! I'm not on the menu, you cheeky little koala bear!" He gently tapped her on the nose, still chuckling. Despite his playful protest, he couldn't help but love her adorable, playful demeanour. He continued to hold her close, their bodies pressed together in a warm, comforting embrace. "Just stick to cuddling," he teased,
she nodded and nuzzled even closer "Goodnight Jerome..."
Jerome's heart melted "Goodnight, my little koala bear," he whispered Tenderly, kissing the top of her head. "Sweet dreams."
she smiled and happily began to drift off to sleep in his arms
Jerome held her close, feeling her body relax as she began to drift off to sleep in his arms. It was a familiar and comforting feeling, one that he never took for granted. He gently stroked her hair, his fingers running through the soft tresses slowly, not wishing to disturb her tranquillity. He listened to her gentle breaths, feeling a sense of peace and contentment wash over him as he held her in his arms.
after a while, Y/n spoke up again "Jerome?"
Jerome roused from his half-asleep state at the sound of his name. He shifted slightly, looking down at Y/n as she spoke up. "Hmm?" he replied softly, his voice still carrying the tone of sleepiness. "What is it, sleepyhead?"
"... I love you" she whispered so quietly he could barely hear her
Jerome froze for a moment, the words barely reaching his ears. He blinked, unsure if he had actually heard her correctly. Her whisper was so soft and quiet that it almost seemed dreamlike. But then the words sunk in, and a smile slowly spread across his face. He reached down, gently cupping her cheek in his hand, his thumb tenderly caressing her skin. His voice was soft and full of affection when he spoke again. "I love you too, Y/n."
