Getting injured on the job is pretty common with your line of work. Working in SOLDIER is risky business. Laying on your couch since last night left your back feeling all stiff. Getting up was going to be difficult with a newly broken leg. Crutches hurt like the devil after using them for a couple days.
You've been given strict orders to stay off your leg as much as possible but you had to get stuff done. First was a proper shower. Slowly crutching to the shower you begin to take your clothes off and get into the shower to realize you can't get your cast wet.
"Well this is going to be interesting."
Balancing on one leg while leaving the other outside of the shower you start to scrub off all the smell of the hospital and grime from the other day. Slowly but surely you get the job done and wash you hair and grab a sponge and wash gently what you could of your leg.
After a difficult but much needed shower you make your way into the kitchen to make breakfast. Already being tired and out of breath you try to reach for a pan to cook eggs in but can't quite reach it. "Why did I have to put the pans on the top shelf?" Stretching as far as your arms could go you can just touch the pan you need and hear a voice coming from behind you causing you to scream and make every pan you own fall out the cabinet.
"What do you thing your doing" a voice asks half scaring you to death.
"Well I'm trying to make breakfast but it's not really working out so great" you tell the long silver haired boyfriend of yours.
He gently picks you up from the mess you caused and takes you back to the couch. You know your in trouble. Folding your arms you pout "I'm capable of making myself breakfast you know."
"Well I do know that you are very capable of making breakfast in your normal condition I'm not so sure about your current condition" Sephiroth stated looking back at the pans all over the kitchen floor and smiles at you.
That damn smile. He knows I can't stay made at him when he smiles. Letting out a big sign you unfold your arms and get comfy on the couch yet again. He makes his way into the kitchen and starts by cleaning up your mess.
You got to admit, it's a lot harder than you imagined having a broken leg. You can't move as fast and the crutches cause your arms to hurt like something awful, and the worst part is when you have an itch and can't scratch it.
Normal daily routines go out the window because it's either too difficult to do or your super tired and sore to do so. Having Sephiroth home is definitely a plus but you can't help but feel guilty for not being able to fully take care of yourself. Your doctor told you it gets easier as the time goes and once you lose the crutches you'll feel like a new person. (So damn true)
"Here you are love." Handing you a plate with eggs and pancakes with a glass of your favorite juice. He takes a seat next to you with his own plate and starts to eat.
Leaning to his side you give him a quick kiss on the check and a "thank you" causing the great Sephiroth to blush. If there's anything that makes you happier than him smiling is that you can make the sword wielding badass blush.
You giggle and start to eat your breakfast and make small talk about the past few days.
Deciding it's best to follow the doctors orders and stay off your feet the both of you decide to have a lazy day together full of watching movies and eating snacks and playing games.
While watching a movie you notice how beautiful a hairstyle is and get the great idea. You look over to your boyfriend who has lushes long silver hair and grin.
"What" he replies eating a piece of pop corn. You can't help but giggle at the idea of playing with his hair and look back at the movie.
Not really catching on he looks at you with a very confused face and then you run your fingers through his hair.
"You can't be thinking what I'm thinking" he says.
Not being able to hold a straight face you ask "what could I possibly be thinking?"
"My hair is not for playing with (y/n)"
"Please Sephiroth" you beg using your best puppy eyes "I've always wanted to try it"
Knowing puppy eyes were his weakness he finally caved in and you slowly grabbed everything you needed to play with his hair.
You begin by brushing his hair out and to your surprise there was hardly any tangles. You start by doing a simple braid and move on to and fishtail braid and start back over and get a great idea.
You section his hair and and makes two separate braids while leaving hair underneath. You pull at the braids to make them bigger and creating more volume to his straight hair.
You take a picture and show him your handy work. Even though you know he won't admit it, he probably loved the feeling of you playing in his hair.

After many snacks and movies later you begin to get sleepy and lay your head on his shoulder. Maybe the broken leg isn't the worst thing in the world. It's given you a lot of time off so you can take a breather from the stressful work environment and plus Sephiroth treats you like a queen. A girl can get used to this kind of treatment.
