angelâs phone shakes on the edge of the nightstand, alarm screaming for them to wake up. david grumbles into his pillow with discontent, brows pushing together as he fights hard to ignore the disruption. normally, they would snooze it almost immediately, but a minute passes and it continues to ring.
âshut that damn thing off, will you?â
he tries again, a bit more heft behind his voice. âangel.â
âhey.â rolling onto his back, he blindly tosses an arm over them only to grab at empty space. his eyes crack open to find if they are, in fact, missing from bed. he should have noticed the lack of body heat pressed flush against him sooner. they never could seem to let him go when he would leave early in the morning for work.
but today isnât a work day; itâs a wednesday, one of his few blessed ones away from it all where he can spend his time preferably doing what he wants. and yet, the one person he would like to spend his day with is notably absent.
he stretches across their side of the bed and grabs their phone, finally quieting the alarm with a swipe of his thumb. his free hand rubs at his tired eyes, nails scratching at the stubble peppering his jaw in a five oâclock shadow.
balancing on the backs of his forearms, david pushes himself upright, covers falling down around his waist. a low grunt mumbles past his lips as his arms extend high above his head to relieve the stiff exhaustion clinging to the muscles. looking left and right, he surveys the room for a sign of angel and findsâŠnothing.
where could they have disappeared to?
the floorboards creak beneath his bare feet as he shuffles his way out of the bedroom and down the hallway. the closer he nears the kitchen, the stronger the rich scent of brewing coffee and buttered toast grows. he turns the corner to see them standing in front of the stove, spatula in hand and weight leaned on one hip.
so this is where theyâve gone; he shouldâve guessed.
their hair is damp, tiny droplets dripping onto the old t-shirt of his they most definitely swiped when he wasnât looking. sunlight pours in from the window above the sink and drapes them in gold. the sizzle of food and purr of the coffee machine timidly interrupt the otherwise undisturbed quiet.
heavy footsteps thumping against the floor, he drags himself up close behind them, arms looping around their stomach. he squeezes them back into him as his head ducks into the curve of their shoulder.
âhe lives.â they free hand runs through his already ruffled hair. âsleep well?â
âi was before a certain someone decided they no longer wanted to without telling me.â
a light chuckle shakes their breath. âaw, âm sorry handsome. at least you had my alarm for some company.â
davidâs head lifts from itâs hiding spot to send a hard glare in their direction. angelâs giggles bubble into full belly laughter, their head tipping back against him. cupping his cheek, they lean in to press an apologetic kiss to his jaw, then another to his lips,. he steals a few more before letting them turn away.
âany plans for your rare day off? aside from dragging me back to bed to sleep some more.â
itâs his turn to laugh this time, a short puff of air through his nose that tickles their cheek. he offers a plain, âmmm.â
theyâre quick to fill in the quiet. â well, i think staying in for the day sounds nice. that way no one really bothers us, we can relax, and most importantly, i can have you,â they grab the hand resting below their chest, fingers sliding into the space between his, âall to myself.â
he doesnât fight the smile that brightens his tired features; if angel notices, and heâs sure they do, given the tiny twitch at the corners of their mouth, they donât say anything. sighing deeply, he turns and places a long kiss to their temple. âthen a day alone for us it is.â
