from jade: baby's first leon kennedy fic! π₯Ή no beta, we all just die. wrote this with re4!leon, death island leon, and re9!leon in mind heh
dsoβs golden boy, legendary agent leon scott kennedy is reduced to nothing but a human pillow. donβt fret, though. heβs exactly where he wants to be in life.
itβs no secret to anyone that leon kennedy has a physique that most women and men simp for. they can gawk however they like but touching him? that right is reserved for you and you only.
leon knows youβre a touchy person by default. first time he met you, he was immediately engulfed in the warmest hug known to mankindβhis knees buckled just a little but thatβs a secret heβll take with him to the grave. when he drove you home after the first date? another hug and a kiss to the cheek that he felt even after days passed. he almost didnβt want to wash his face but thought about your preference for hygienic men.
after four years of dating and three months being engaged, your physical love meter has amped up intensely. before, the most heβll get is a kiss to the corner of his mouth. now? leonβs lucky if he can even get up after getting mauled into the bed due to your sudden urge to βkiss him all over and eat him up and chew him all up.β
this leads us to now, early morning with the sun peeking through the blinds. leon insisted on a blackout curtain but your argument of βyou canβt live in darkness foreverβ resulted in soft baby pink sheer flower patterned curtains.
it was one of those rare times where you awake earlier than him. to be fair, he just came back from a month-long mission in europe.
youβve always known leon kennedy was pretty but in these instances of serenity and peace, heβs looking extra gorgeous under the warm sunlight. you lay on your front, head slumped over his stretched out bicep. your cheek is skin-to-skin with the muscle, firm yet comfortable. leonβs on his back, chest rising periodically in deep breaths.
glancing at the clock on the nightstand, you decide itβs time to wake him up. you turn your head, open your mouth, and thenβbite. hard enough to jolt him awake but not so much that it bleeds out.
you grin as you watch him rub the sleep away from his eyes. βhi, baby. good morning.β
leon squints at you for a moment, still caught up somewhere between dreaming about flowers with faces chasing him and actually facing the prettiest flower ever (you), before he pinches your cheek.
then he registers the dull ache in his arm.
he stills, contemplating on whether to ask you about it or not. instead he settles for, "...mornin'.β
his voice comes out rough, just the right about of deepness and softness that makes your heart flutter. you lean forward to kiss his stubbled jaw.
the arm you were laying on slips under your shirt, calloused fingers caressing the smooth skin.
usually, leonβs internal clock is impossible to shut off, especially after a mission. years of training have hardwired him into waking up the second heβs conscious. most mornings, heβd already be halfway to the coffee machine by now.
instead, he lets his arm flop back onto the mattress, right in front of you. then stares blankly at the ceiling.
you blink. once. twice. "breakfast?β
the answer comes immediately, accompanied by a sleepy exhale.
leon scott kennedy, the man who survived thousands of bioweapons, government conspiracies, parasitic cults, and whatever the hell europe decided to throw at him this time, was choosing to stay in bed. voluntarily.
"iβm tired." his eyes remained at the ceiling.
thereβs no complaint in his voice. just a simple statement of fact.
"you should rest, then.β you hummed. he curls his arm loosely around your shoulders in response. for a second there, leon thought he heard purrs of content from you. huh, he must still be dreaming.
you settle comfortably on your stomach again, phone balanced in front of you. your legs swing back and forth behind you as you load up your game, leon snickers at the sight.
a few seconds later, you lean down to take another bite of his bicep. not enough to hurt. never to hurt him.
leon sighs. βi feel like a chew toy.β
βyou are. my chew toy.β
βis that all i am to you?β
βmost times, yeah.β and another bite. it doesnβt even faze him anymore.
βlove you too, i guess.β
βaw, thank you, lord kennedy.β
you grin triumphantly before returning your attention to your phone. one hand taps away at the screen while your cheek remains pressed against his arm like itβs the worldβs most comfortable pillow. the 4000 dollars pillow currently on the floor glares at you with scorn and betrayal.
every now and then, you absentmindedly nibble at him. to which, he retorts with faux annoyance.
the room falls quiet after that.
only the sounds of your game, the rustle of sheets, and the occasional bite to his arm interrupt the silence.
leon keeps staring at the ceiling.
not because he's thinking about work. not because he's replaying mission reports. not because he's wondering when headquarters will drag him into another disaster.
for once, he's letting himself do absolutely nothing.
he can feel you beside him. your legs kicking lazily in the air. your weight against his arm. your teeth occasionally finding his bicep because apparently that's become a normal thing in this relationship.
and when you shift closer and practically drape yourself over him, leon doesnβt complain. he never does. youβve got a soft spot in his heart, after all.
he just lets out another slow breath and settles deeper into the mattress. he reminds himself that heβs home. to you.
and if that means another hour of being a chew toy and a human pillow, leon figures he can deal with that. after all, heβs been through worst situations than this.
