You woke up to a quiet winter morning as the overnight snow had dulled even the softest sound, snuggled up against Hakim, chest to chest, your heartbeat slowly catching up to his as if your bodies reacted simultaneously to your warm touch. It was a Monday morning and Hakim had training but it was referred to as off because of the snowstorm that took place the night time earlier than. Snowstorm, it rang in your head, you remembered Hakim's promise, he didn't let you play in the snow yesterday late at night but he did promise to let you in the morning.
Eyes still puffy and sleepy, you escaped his ensuring arms heading towards the window, the backyard was all white and you couldn't help but jump With great enthusiasm. You switched your gaze to the sleeping bag sprawled on the bed, you hurried to him, he was snoring lightly, his lips slightly parted, he looked adorable, and your heart squeezed, you didn't want to wake him up from his deep sleep but your enthusiasm got the best of you. You tried to wake him up by poking at his shoulder but he didn't respond, being the heavy sleeper he is. So you were left with no choice but the hard way. You climbed up the mattress, straddling his back, you watched as he made a face, groaning at the discomfort he felt, you then laid your stem on his, bringing your hands to tickle the soft skin of his neck. And thank god he woke up, turning his head to the side, his eyes fluttered open. You lifted your hips a little bit to let space for him to lay on his back.
"Why are you up this early?" You smiled at his confusion as you brought your hands to squeeze his cheeks.
"Babe, you promised yesterday you'd let me play in the snow."
" I did? I don't remember making such a promise!" He exclaimed, clearly teasing you as his warm hands were flicking at your bare thighs.
"HAKIM" You whined, smacking his shoulder lightly as he laughed. He loved teasing you and what added flavor to it is that you are easily irritated.
" Okay okay, lemme just wash my face."
You got off of him, jumping excitedly.
" I can't wait for you, I'll go out first you follow me!" You preened already making your way through the door but the sooner you were stopped, unable to move! Hakim was blocking you as he grabbed the hem of your t-shirt.
" Where are you going?" He barked accusingly but he was met with your confused face.
" Awa3di yana ! Sh3andk o ntina 9abtni hayda. Fokni yana kont masha berra."
He nodded as he let his eyes travel around your fit. You were wearing one of his T-shirts along with some shorts. He already knows that you don't like layering a lot of clothes, which is understandable because there is a heater in the house. But he's not letting you go outside in this fit. And to play in the snow? Over his dead body!
" Go put on some clothes, It's cold outside! I don't want you to catch the flu."
The knot between your eyebrows untied as you nodded, quickly making your way to the dressing room. Soon afterward, you exited wearing a long white puffer coat along with some high-platform ugg. Hakim was nowhere to be found and you assumed he was in the bathroom. You hurriedly made your path outside, to the backyard.
The icy air whistles around your ears, causing the bare skin of your hands to tingle and sting. Your fingers were numb, but it was a good feeling. Snug inside your puffer, nothing can spoil the overwhelming feeling of being taken back to childhood. The urge to make a snowball is all consuming and you had to restrain yourself from lying down on the floor and making a snow angel. Every step you took left a fresh, crisp footprint in the snow. Snowflakes fell gently from the sky, tickling the end of your nose and tempting you to stick out your tongue and have a taste which you did! Sticking your tongue out your hands snug inside your puffer's pockets which made look like a child. It was such a cute sigh for Hakim who burst out a laugh whichever made you switch your gaze to him. He was wearing a puffer coat just like you! You waved at him to join you and as he was making his way to you leaned down to create a snowball and threw it at him. Everything happened so quickly that he didn't have time to process it. He just stood there dumbfounded, his hand soothing off his face. It was like the silence before the storm!
" You just claimed war against me." He accused as he leaned down and started making a big big snowball to take his revenge. You didn't notice since you were laughing hysterically and boom! You felt the cold ball hit your face, your eyes watered at how freezing it was! And with that, the battle started and it didn't end until you gave up when you had enough.
" You really had fun, hadn't you?" Hakim beamed as he wrapped his arms around your stem, admiring your features. You lifted your head up and nodded at him.
" Well, I did! But let's just skip the parts when you'd hit me with these giant balls! "You nagged sassily and he lifted his eyebrow in a challenging manner.
" So you're telling me that I shouldn't have defended myself when you attacked me first."
" Exactly! It was set to test gentleness but you failed. Shame on you my love."
You wept, shaking your head in a fake disappointment.
" Excuse me! I am a gentleman." He defended himself.
" You're abusive! " You huffed, crossing your arms and you earned a laugh from him.
" Alrighty! I'm sorry babe, I shouldn't have defended myself, I should have let you bury me here in the snow without protesting! Does this apology fulfill your disappointment, my lady?"
" Very much! Thank god you knew your fault." You exclaimed sassily and you earned a chuckle from him.
" Let's go home, your hair is all damp ! I don't want you to get sick." He appealed, putting an end to your small talk as he leaned slightly, his arms wrapping your thighs and he lifted your upside down on his shoulder. You yelped at his unexpected move, clutching at his coat.
" What are you doing? " You taunted surprisingly.
" A gentleman behavior darling! "
