It's ritual for Caleb to come home after a long day and just smother himself against you.
"Missed you, pips," he sighs against your neck, and you giggle as he flops down bed, lying on top of you. Nuzzling your skin for comfort, he slides lower down until his face is level with your thighs. The contact isn't always sexual, just that the feel of your soft skin after a long day is comforting.
"Did you do anything fun today?" He smiles up at you, hands absentmindedly slipping under your sleep shorts. You hum in thought, fingers running through his brown locks.
"I had a few missions I had to deal with. But I ended up finishing early."
"Mhm," Caleb's nose nudges your thigh softly. He caresses the curve of your stomach.
"So Tara and I also went out for dessert afterwards."
"That's fun." A blissful exhale escapes his lips as you comb through his hair just right. His fingers inch further down, inching to sink into the rough curls he knows are situated just-
"And I also-"
"You shaved your bush."
The line is so blunt yet laced with such a betrayed tone that you can't help but laugh.
"What?"
"Your bush. It's...gone."
"Yeah, I did shave it off in the shower earlier. Had to clean out the drain all by myself."
Caleb's eyes get all misty- this time not at the idea of you doing things by yourself, but the image of your poor bush hairs having to be wrenched out of a shower drain like they're not his greatest comfort.
"Why? Did I make you feel like you had to?" He demands, but it comes out in a more mopey, disappointed tone.
"No, of course not. I just got a bit irritated with the feeling. Wanted something smooth for a change."
"Oh, okay. You know, I love your body either way, pips, it's just...just..."
"Just what, Caleb?" Your tone softens. You look down to see him hide his face against your stomach, but it doesn't muffle the sniffle that's wrenched from him.
"Oh my God. Are you crying?"
