Momentary Bliss // Van fluff
Hey friendos, this is a really really rough blurb but I thought it’d be better to try and jump back into writing now rather than never, so please understand that this is not my best work but just a little fluff of a fic. I think the world needs a little fluff right now anyways so please enjoy and let me know how much you hate it lmfao. I’ll be back with more work if this picks up a bit so please do let me know if you’d continue reading my work.
Sincerely, timeforaciggy.
The apartment was freezing, the only warmth was cuddled into van’s chest. He knew you had to get up but there was nothing more that you wanted more than this moment to last forever. You both begin to start to wake up more and more when the sun finally starts to shine just right through the crack in the blinds illuminating the bedroom you shared, or rather the mattress on the floor of your bedroom you shared. You can feel him gently lay his thumb on the side of your cheek and a gentle kiss on your eyelid. How could you open your eyes and start your day when all you ever wanted was these moments of bliss to just last forever?
“Love, you think your boss will seriously really mind if you're late just one more morning?" he asked, genuine desperation in his gravelly voice made your heart almost ache in awe of how precious he sounded. “Yes, Van. I honestly do-” but of course as soon as you started to trail off as to why, you felt his chest rise and fall as he lets out a heavy sigh. He’s been so understanding and thankfully for the time being it’s not like your job is your absolute main priority, it was mostly spending time with Van, before he went off on to start another leg of festival gigs.
Knowing you wouldn't be able to tag along with him on another tour because of school and your other priorities that just can’t be dropped out of nowhere you knew you had to make a judgement call. Either possibly lose your part time job for being late again on account of not wanting to leave your damn bed and more importantly leave your damn man in bed without you, or, have to get up and deal with another day in a world that lacks so much luster these days, go to a job you hate, and then of course regret not being with the person that actually does give your world luster.
In the end, the decision you made was to spend the time you know you could never buy back with the money you made from your shitty job in the first place. And all you had to say was what Van said when they called to tell you not to bother even coming in the next morning, which of course was just two words, “worth it.”
