Bright rays seeped through the blinds, forcing Leon to bury his face further into the pillows.
A low and tired groan slipped past his lips. It was too early in the morning for this.
His hand instinctively reached out, searching for a familiar warmth in the sheets next to him.
Somehow through his groggy state, it registered in his mind that he was the only one in bed.
His brows furrowed before he opened his eyes. You weren't there. The mattress was cold and empty.
A tight grip suddenly appeared in his chest. It wasn't like you to get up earlier than him.
His mind immediately thought of the worst, even though he knew it shouldn't.
Leon wasted no time and quickly got up.
Maybe it was his nightmares finally catching up to him. Despite being on vacation in his own home, far away from anything related to work, he simply can't put his mind at ease.
Suddenly, the faint smell of coffee caught his attention, momentarily pausing him.
He picked up his feet again, walking down the hallway and into the kitchen.
You were humming to yourself, tapping your fingers along the kitchen counter. The only thing you wore was Leon's old sweater, paired with your favorite slippers.
Relief washed over him as he sighed contently at the sight of you.
You turn around upon hearing him, smiling so softly. "You're awake," you spoke, "I was hoping I'd surprise you with—"
In a blink of an eye, Leon made his way towards you. His hand gently held your waist as the other guided your face closer to his.
He pressed his lips against yours, kissing you tenderly.
It was slow, passionate, the kind that left you giddy.
You couldn't help but thread your fingers through Leon's messy hair, subconsciously smiling against his lips.
Eventually, the two of you pulled away. His forehead rested against yours, you could feel his breath fanning your face.
"Good morning to you too," you giggled breathlessly.
Leon mumbled back in response. His eyes were still shut, hands softly caressing your skin like he was trying to take in every detail about you.
"You weren't in bed," he whispered.
"I know," you replied. "I was gonna make us some food and head back before you woke up."
Leon kissed your cheek briefly before resting his head against your shoulder. His arms wrapped around your body, pulling you closer.
You loved quiet mornings like this. Both of you, especially Leon, needed it.
After a moment, you lean back slightly, taking in Leon's appearance. You lightly pushed his bangs out of his face, revealing more of his ocean eyes.
"You look cute," you uttered absentmindedly.
Leon scoffed. "I look like a mess."
"You must be out of your mind to think that this looks cute."
You simply hummed. "Maybe I am."
Your hands cupped Leon's face as you grinned.
"This side of you is something only I get to see. Makes it even more special."
Leon smiled in return, turning his head a little to kiss your palm.
