sleeping with aki headcanons? sfw! but feel free to do it maybe some after nsfw!!
aki hayakawa x reader; reader's pronouns are not specified + body isn't described. non-explicit nsfw utc, but minors don't interact.
first and foremost, aki is a light sleeper. years of devil hunting have taught him to stay ready on his feet, even when in bed. trouble can brew at a moment's notice, and being flat-footed in this profession and world is asking for . . . unpleasantries.
on top of that, he also has difficulties falling asleep. while it's not medically diagnosed insomnia, aki will frequently lay in bed for hours and and just . . . contemplate. if it's not power or denji keeping him awake with their constant tossing and turning, then it's his own mind that won't leave him in peace.
on nights that he spends with you, separate from power and denji, aki regrettably can't say that he sleeps any better. against him, your body is the warmth one wishes for on a summer day: he buries his face between your shoulder blades, and drowns himself in you. you, a tether to the good that's left in this bleak reality. you, the soft lull of a beach tide before dawn breaks.
(sometimes, he hopes to dream of being at the beach with you, power, and denji.)
"is something wrong?" your voice floats acorss the night of the room, concerned. in response, aki will shake his head, no matter what he's tossing internally. you don't need to trouble yourself with those sorts of things.
he greatly enjoys it when you play with his hair. fingers carding through dark strands, brushing against his scalp, makes him cutely pliant. when you stop, he might make a barely-there, subdued noise – mild discontent, however he doesn't pry for further affections.
