Y/N sighed heavily as she trudged up the gravel path leading to her cozy cottage. The day had been an exhausting one, filled with endless paperwork and a string of minor yet infuriating inconveniences. All she wanted was to curl up in bed and forget the world existed.As she reached the front door, she noticed a soft glow emanating from the living room window, the gentle flicker of candlelight casting warm shadows on the walls. Y/N's lips curled into a small, involuntary smile. Her boyfriends, Remus and Sirius, always had a way of making everything better, even on the worst days.She quietly unlocked the door and slipped inside, carefully hanging up her coat and setting down her bag. The aroma of freshly brewed tea and the faint crackle of a fire greeted her, along with the soft hum of a familiar melody from the wireless. She padded softly down the hallway, the plush carpet muffling her footsteps as she peeked into the living room.The sight that met her eyes melted away the day's stress in an instant. Remus and Sirius were cuddled up on the sofa, their limbs entwined in a tangled mess of warmth and affection. Remus had a book open on his lap, but his attention was firmly on Sirius, whose head rested on his shoulder, dark hair spilling over Remus' arm. They were wrapped in a thick, patchwork blanket that Y/N's grandmother had gifted them, its vibrant colors dulled slightly with age but filled with love.Y/N couldn't help but pull out her camera, quietly snapping a photo of the serene scene before her. The soft click caught the boys' attention, and they looked up, identical grins spreading across their faces."Well, well, if it isn't our hardworking Y/N," Sirius teased, his gray eyes twinkling with mischief. "Come to join our cuddle puddle, love?"Remus chuckled, the sound like a gentle rumble that sent warmth flooding through her chest. "You look like you could use it, darling. Tough day?"Y/N nodded, unable to keep the weariness from her face. But the affectionate gazes of her boyfriends lifted her spirits, filling her with a cozy, cherished feeling. "Long day. But seeing you two like this makes it all better."She moved closer, and Remus extended an arm, inviting her into their embrace. Y/N sank onto the sofa, snuggling into Remus' side as Sirius shifted to rest his head on her lap, his hand finding hers and lacing their fingers together."You're home now," Remus murmured, pressing a tender kiss to her temple. "Let us take care of you."Sirius hummed in agreement, eyes half-lidded as he looked up at her with pure adoration. "Yeah, we'll cuddle you until all the bad stuff goes away."Y/N smiled softly, the tight knot in her chest loosening as their warmth seeped into her. The fire crackled in the hearth, casting a golden glow over them, while the wireless continued to play a slow, soothing tune.Remus set his book aside, his other arm curling around Sirius to pull him closer. The three of them fit together perfectly, like the pieces of a well-loved puzzle. Y/N felt Remus' steady heartbeat under her cheek, the rhythmic rise and fall of his chest a calming presence. Sirius, ever the restless one, idly traced patterns on Y/N's hand with his thumb, his touch feather-light yet grounding."You know," Y/N began softly, her voice muffled against Remus' sweater, "I don't think I'll ever get tired of coming home to this."Sirius lifted his head slightly, smirking. "Well, we are rather irresistible, aren't we, Moony?"Remus huffed a laugh, rolling his eyes fondly. "I suppose we are. But only because of you, Pads."The banter, light and familiar, washed over Y/N like a warm blanket. She couldn't help but giggle, the sound bubbling up unbidden as the day's tension melted away. Sirius grinned up at her, his eyes dancing with mirth. "There it is—our favorite sound."Y/N playfully flicked his forehead. "You're ridiculous.""But you love us anyway," Sirius countered cheekily, pressing a kiss to the back of her hand.Remus' fingers carded gently through her hair, the motion lulling her into a tranquil state. "As we love you," he whispered, the sincerity in his tone making her heart swell.Silence settled over them, comfortable and soothing. Y/N's eyes drifted closed, the combined warmth of her boyfriends and the fire making her drowsy. She felt safe, protected—a precious treasure cradled between them.The minutes stretched, the only sounds the soft crackling of the fire and the gentle rustling of the blanket as they adjusted, seeking ever closer contact. Y/N's breathing deepened, the exhaustion of the day catching up to her.Sirius was the first to notice, his gaze softening as he took in her relaxed form. "Looks like we've got a sleepy kitten on our hands," he murmured, reaching up to brush a stray strand of hair from her face.Remus smiled, a tender expression reserved solely for his loves. "Let her rest," he said softly. "She deserves it.""But not without us," Sirius replied, shifting so he could rest his head against Y/N's shoulder, his arm draped over her waist. Remus pressed another kiss to her temple, his lips lingering as if to imprint his love into her very skin."Never without us," Remus agreed, tightening his hold on them both.Y/N sighed contentedly, her body sinking further into the cushions as sleep tugged at her. Even in her drowsy state, she could feel the unwavering affection of her boyfriends, a beacon of light on even the darkest of days.Hours later, Y/N stirred awake, the room dimmed as the fire had burned low. She glanced at Remus and Sirius, both of whom had drifted off, their faces peaceful in slumber. The sight made her heart flutter with an overwhelming wave of love and gratitude.Unable to resist, she pressed a gentle kiss to Sirius' forehead, then turned to do the same for Remus. They stirred slightly but didn't wake, their bodies instinctively cuddling closer to her."I'm the luckiest person in the world," Y/N whispered, the words meant for no one but herself.And as she nestled back into their embrace, the soft murmurs of her boyfriends in their sleep reassuring her, Y/N knew that no matter how tough the world outside became, she would always have this—this sanctuary of love, warmth, and the boundless affection of two people who made every day worth living.
