he notices that you’re practically falling asleep while you two are having a meal together
your head is drooping so low that he has to catch you from falling face-first into the food
“hey, watch it, idiot! your hair’s getting in it.”
declares that you’re too tired to eat and wraps up your food for you so you can eat it later
if it seems like you’re so tired that he has to drag you to bed, he’ll just go right ahead and pick you up to carry you the rest of the way there
but don’t think that he won’t still put a stop to your mumbling protests
“it’s obvious that your dumbass is too tired to walk so shut up and let me help you.”
he places you down in bed and begins to tuck you in before he notices that you still have makeup on
he looks around the room briefly for whatever you use to remove it
“hey, don’t get too comfortable yet. how do you take that stuff off your face?”
after deciphering your vague pointing and mumbled directions, he finally locates the bottle of micellar water and the little reusable pads
you giggle as he begins to clean your face off and tickles your skin
“hey, hold still for a minute, you idiot. i thought you were tired.”
peeling off your fake lashes is probably his least favorite part
they’re so annoying because he always finds them stuck to him or in a place they shouldn’t be and he’ll mistake it for a spider
“i’m going to put these stupid things in your desk drawer where they WON’T get STUCK to ME.”
tries to be gentle when rubbing off your eye makeup but he wants to make sure he gets everything off so he finds himself scrubbing a little harder
but he makes sure he doesn’t get anything in your eyes
his favorite part, though, is cleaning off your neck
he’s got this weird hyper fixation about it...he just thinks you have a nice neck okay
once he’s done, he takes a clean pad and does one more pass over your whole face and eyes to make sure he got everything
“okay, there. now you won’t get that shit everywhere in the bed.”
puts the remover stuff away and gets into bed with you
finds his favorite spot, resting his head on your shoulder with his face hiding in your neck
“i love you. now get some rest, dumbass.”
he returns from class or training and unexpectedly finds you in the same spot as he left you
“oh, hey, pebble! didn’t expect to find you still here.”
class was canceled so you were just trying to catch up on some work
he observes your slumped figure and droopy expression
this was seemingly not the cute and smiley s/o that he knew
he always thinks you’re cute but you just looked especially fatigued, that’s all
once he watched you sigh, yawn, and rub over your face and eyes all within a few seconds
that’s when he sees that you seemed to forget that you were wearing makeup and smeared it a little around your eyes
he couldn’t continue to hesitate from saying something
“babe, i think you need to sleep. why don’t you take a little nap and i’ll get us some food and you can eat when you wake up?”
but first, he’s gonna clean your face off so you can relax
you’re barely conscious at this point, luckily he knows where you keep your makeup wipes
after a few swipes across your face, he’s amazed as he sees all the product coming off onto the wipe
“whoa, babe, i think it’s working!”
he’s acting like he just discovered gold or something
“that’s so cool. isn’t it crazy that it’s taking off all the dirt and stuff-- i mean, your face isn’t dirty but, like, it’s getting rid of the stuff that could make it dirty. gotta make sure my pebble has clean pores!”
unlike his exploding friend, he’s more gentle around your eye area
lets you know when he’s going to put more pressure and tell him if he’s rubbing too hard
but now he understands why you rub your eyes raw to get all your mascara off
he does the best he can without causing you any discomfort
when he thinks he’s cleaned it all off, he lets you know he’s done by kissing your cheek many times which makes you giggle
“all clean! are you ready to get some sleep?”
insists on carrying you or at least helping you to bed
he isn’t someone who likes to take naps but he’ll lay there with you and rub your back until you’re fast asleep
the day had been long and hard, one that left you exhausted both physically and emotionally
your muscles ached and your eyes felt strained from being awake and alert all-day
but if you want to take a nap, your boyfriend would love nothing more than to be lazy and chill with you
and once denki gets into a cuddly, sleepy mood, he’s glued to your side
literally follows you everywhere until you’re relaxed in bed or somewhere comfy with him
he goes to the bathroom with you so you can remove your makeup beforehand
he likes to stand behind you, hugging you from behind but his close presence is only making it harder to stay awake
he sees that your movements are becoming more sluggish and you’re beginning to lean back into him more
“do you need some help, gorgeous? here, sit down for me.”
he’s kinda nervous about using the putty balm stuff that you use to remove it because he’s never seen anything like it
he’s seen you take off your makeup a few times but he checks in with you to be sure
“okay, so i can just put this right on your face, right?”
once he starts, he gets into it and enjoys rubbing the stuff onto your cheeks
“haha this is so fun! you have such cute cheeks, babe.”
even though it’s kinda messy, the balm actually does a great job at taking off your makeup easily
but he’s kinda hesitant about using it on your eyes and doesn’t want it to get in them
luckily there’s not much left on your eyes, having been worn away from the day’s events
“whoa, your eyelashes feel weird with mascara on. very pointy.”
his observations never fail to amuse
when he’s done putting it all over your face, he realizes that he doesn’t have anything to wipe it off
has you keep your eyes closed as he washes his hands off and locates a towel
“sorry, babe. hang on one second. okay, here we go. now you’re getting clean!”
he’s amazed that, despite being a thick balm, it wipes off your face real easy
“huh, i guess that’s why they call it a ‘makeup melter--’ okay, all done!”
rinses out the towel and hangs it to dry then holds you from behind again, steering you out of the bathroom and into bed
places a small kiss on the corner of your mouth before spooning you
you love learning new dance moves from mina but there are days when you feel like you don’t even have the energy to watch her dance
which is sad because you love watching her more than anything
but she’s the greatest girlfriend and understands as she promises she’ll show it to you later
(next, she’ll have to show you how to keep up sheesh)
for her, being tired is not an excuse to skip skincare before bed
or at least taking your makeup off before bed
“babeeee, you know that’s, like, so bad for your skin. not to mention that it’ll get your pillows dirty!”
she grabs the micellar water and methodically swipes over your face, not pulling or pressing too hard
this is the time when she likes to pay you the most compliments, even if you’re half-asleep
“oh my god, you have to tell me what lashes these are. they’re so fluffy and pretty!”
“your skin is so smooth and glowy, sweetheart.”
“i love this shade of lipstick on you. makes your lips look so kissable.”
takes every chance that she can to kiss you
in fact, every spot she cleans off, she’ll kiss
it’s like a secret code that it’s clean
and that’s every spot because she doesn’t want to miss any
she’ll even clean off your lashes by picking off the glue and letting them soak in micellar water for a few minutes
“i like doing your makeup but this is so much more satisfying.”
like bakugo, she’ll do one more pass all over your face, placing final kisses in some spots as well
but even when she’s done, she’s not done
first, she’ll get you comfy into bed, lying down on your back
she’ll grab that stone she uses to massage her face, the gua sha
she absolutely swears by it and credits it to her killer jawline
and she’ll lightly massage your face with it while you fall asleep
it’s the epitome of relaxation, especially when she rubs it over your jaw and does little circle motions at the end
she’ll lay down with you when she’s done and you’ll usually turn over to spoon her, pressing your face to rest between her shoulders
behold, it’s bnha night! inbox is ready for requests..
