It had been a long day. Long day, long week, long month. Work had been getting just uncomfortably busy as of late, and you just had to keep reminding yourself that every evening spent away from home and every weekend tacked on too was only adding to your bank account and the reserve of compensatory time off you had been saving up. A few more weeks of this, and you'd finally be done with the worst of it all and swore you were going to take a whole month off and sleep straight through the first week of it. Even with the finish line in sight, though, you needed a break, and badly at that.
And you weren't the only one who seemed to think so.
Remy had been a little busier on his end of things, too, but not enough so as not to notice how you practically dragged yourself through the door each day or sounded absolutely dead when you were on call with him. Today had seemed particularly rough, coming home late on a Saturday evening, short pumps in your hand that you had taken off before even driving home and had just carried up the driveway with you. But with all that misery, it was the littlest glimmer of hope in the fact that you had the next day off. A lovely little blip in your hellish schedule, and god, did you intend to make the most of it.
Cuddling with your boyfriend had definitely been prominent on your mind as a good place to start and had honestly kept you going through the final half of your work day. Opening the door to confirm that he was actually, in fact, there had been quite the blessing, too. Realistically you knew he wouldn't take off without at least a text shot your way at the bare minimum, but seeing him there with your own two eyes just cemented the knowledge that you were going to finally have a damn good day off.
"Lookin' good, but ain't lookin' too hot," he commented, glancing up from whatever he had been doing on his phone, looking you over with something close to sympathy that only grew closer when you answered him with an exceptionally eloquent groan that perfectly conveyed 'I almost wish I had just been hit by a car on the way home so I wouldn't have to deal with this anymore'.
"I feel like death," you announced, dropping your poor shoes unceremoniously right beside the door and then kicking them a little further away from the entry for good measure.
"Already got dinner goin'. Be done soon."
That was enough to lift a little extra weight off of your shoulders as well, and you sighed for it.
"That's why I love you," you murmured, drawing close to press a small smattering of kisses to his lips and cheek before figuring you'd go and change before sitting down to eat.
"Love me for plenty a' reasons," Remy retorted between kisses, smile permanently affixed to his lips throughout.
"Mmm, no, just that one," you teased, laughing slightly when he caught you around the waist to keep you from wandering too far off.
"Just gotta remind you a' the rest, don't I?" You knew exactly where he was going with that, and admittedly, it sounded pretty damn good, but you were already struggling with wanting to stay awake as it was.
You leaned in to give him one more kiss before moving to step back again. "You can remind me tomorrow."
Your efforts to go and change clothes were once again thwarted by his grip tightening a touch more, and when you glanced back at him, his smile had lost its teasing edge.
"C'mon chère; let Remy take care a' you, yeah? Been runnin' yourself down, let me do the work tonight."
Fuck, if that didn't get you.
Somehow dinner was enjoyed at a relatively normal pace before he was dragging you off to your room, dishes to be ignored until tomorrow. Remy kept up with his words too, hardly letting you lift a finger as he grabbed a change of sleep clothes for you and helped you out of your work clothes. You had thought just immediately crashing with your entire body tangled around him would be a perfect end for the night, and that was entirely off from what was happening now. Though admittedly, being stretched out on your bed, thighs locked around his head and fingers curled into his hair as his tongue pressed expertly into you, lapping up everything you had to give and then some was an even better option.
