You come to wakefulness slowly, the enticing lull of sleep displaying a strong grip on your consciousness. Eyelids leaden, you open them with great effort to see the small beam of sunlight that had slipped past the curtains through the hair-thin gap sprawl across the ceiling, a brilliant golden glow illuminating the otherwise shaded room.
Warmth presses on on you from all sides - the heavy quilt and the extra throw on top, the small form curled in on his side, half-sprawled atop you, head tucked beneath your chin and cheek squished up against your sweater. With arms that wrap tightly around your midsection and one leg hiked up over your hips, Levi clings onto you in his sleep with all the force of a tiny, angry limpet.
(He’d threatened to turn you inside out like a sock when you’d made that comparison out loud. That, however, did not stop you from thinking it, especially in his sleepier, cuddlier moments.)
With a sigh, you smile, the free arm that wasn’t wrapped around your boyfriend’s muscular back coming up to stroke his messy hair that splays out across your chest like dark ink. His firm torso flush against yours, you could feel the warmth of his skin, the steady rise and fall of his chest, and you give into the urge to press the lightest of kisses onto his exposed forehead.
Grinning to yourself, you continue to gently slip your fingers through his hair, lightly scraping your nails against his prickly undercut. It always seems to make him sleep deeper, somehow. Your eyes flutter shut, unable to stay open for much longer, and you let the soothing lullaby of his deepened breathing lull you back into slumber.
You wake an hour or so later, the day having grown hotter, the heat under the sheets and from your boyfriend teetering on uncomfortable. Blinking sleep away from your eyes, you shift, trying to move the covers so that you could stick an arm or leg outside and go the hell back to sleep.
At the movement, Levi stirs, slowly lifting his head from where it had rested tucked under your chin. “What are you doing?” He slurs hoarsely, eyes barely open, hair askew. His cheeks always go puffy in the mornings and you can’t help but pinch them lightly, and grin at the sleepy glare he retaliates with.
“It’s roasting in here. Just wanted to stick a leg out or something.”
He huffs, lying his head back down, firmly tucking himself at your side. “’s warm.”
He yawns, eyelids drooping. His grip loosens and his head lifts up off your chest again, letting you readjust yourself, leg poking out the side.
“Better?” He mumbles, as you settle back down and guide Levi back down to rest in the same position, content.
“Mm hm.” You nod, closing your eyes, your hands slipping up underneath his sleep shirt and aimlessly rubbing circles into his back.
“That feels nice,” his voice is muffled by your shirt, and you feel his face nuzzle your chest slightly, and his lips dropping a kiss onto your clothed skin. His hands slip under your sweater, returning the favour by slowly massaging your stomach.
“Love you,” you yawn, feeling yourself growing limp under his gentle ministrations.
An incoherent mumble vaguely resembling the same phrase is what you hear in response. His breathing evens out soon after, and you eagerly follow him into the land of dreams.
