A small smile tugged at the young woman's (s/c) lips as she felt his strong arm still tightly wrapped around her waist even when he was at the depths of his slumber. The first rays of sunlight shone rather brightly through the partly covered window leaving the division far more illuminated than she would have liked, however she did not dare move to go and fully cover it to completely keep the light from entering the room.
This was one of the rare days when the man couldn't help but sleep in due to exhaustion, and she wished to avoid disturbing his sleep no matter what the cost was.
It greatly fascinated her, the sight of him soundly sleeping. More frequently than not, he would stay up until far later at night than she would and would wake up long before she did; meaning she only had a chance to observe him in such a state on extremely rare occasions. Like this, he looked so calm, so peaceful, so vulnerable; she felt glad, honoured even, for being allowed to see this side of him that was and had been available to eyes of so few.
The brunette's fingers twitched ever-so-lightly in his sleep and she sensed a light tingling on the place where his fingers softly brushed on the skin of her back. His lips were slightly, almost unnoticeably, parted; his hair was a mess, grandly dishevelled; his warm and comforting breath lightly tickled her neck every time he exhaled. At that moment, she took notice of just how much heat his body radiated, just enough to keep her warm and cosy even in the wintery coolness of the room. It was these little things, along with many more, that she would always fail to notice when not in such moments.
A very faint groan echoed from the Gandor's throat before he rolled over and onto his back, then rubbing the sleep away from his groggy eyes.
(F/n) felt happy as she would finally be able to start her relaxing day with him; however, she also felt somewhat upset upon finding out that he would not be sleeping any longer. She believed him to need all the sleep he could get...
"Good morning!" greeted the (h/c) with a loving smile.
"How long have you been awake?" inquired the capo, his arm tightening the strong grip around his companion's waist.
"A while..." she responded truthfully.
He readied himself to get out of the bed but, rather quickly, the young woman took a hold of his arm, keeping him from doing so.
From the moment he got up, she knew, he would either dive into work or go to his brothers for a 'break' (meaning card games while speaking of work); it was most likely what he wanted, but not what she did.
"Please, stay...!" she begged quietly, right before he complied with her wishes and slowly laid back down next to her. "Just for one day. Stay with me!"
"You know I have things to do, (f/n)." he sighed softly, his sharp brown gaze fixed on her for a few moments.
"I know... but can't you rely on Keith and Berga for one day and take care of the other things tomorrow? Just for today, I would like to spend the day with you; if you need something done so we can do this, then tell me what it is and I'll do it!"
For a single split second, he looked as though he was going to argue again; instead, however, he simply let out a silent sigh and made use of both arms to pull his lover closer to him. Comfortably, the (h/c) nuzzled her nose on the crook of his neck and, in response, he gently placed a kiss on the top of her head.
This was the most caring and affectionate side of Luck's personality, one side that she couldn't help but love dearly the most and one side that she sincerely hoped would never change or disappear.
"Hm... I would detest to even imagine how horrible my life would be without my little love." he muttered under his breath; (f/n) honestly doubted that anyone, even herself, could guess what was going on inside the man's mind at that instant, for him to utter such a thing.
A faint yet noticeable blush dusted the female's cheeks as he voiced such thoughts; full to the brim with loving happiness, she couldn't help herself from moving her head slightly upwards to press her softer lips against his rather thin ones in a small and cute peck.
"Don't think about it then, I'll always be here for you!" she assured.
