Summary: Your winter vacations started & the best way to spend it is with your older boyfriend
WC: 3.2K
It was the last day in college before the winter vacation started and it was already so cold you wondered why they didn't give out the holidays a week earlier.
And to be perfectly honest, you really didn't have to go today, since many students don't really prefer it, so the classes stay pretty empty. So if you also had taken the day off no one would have cared.
Which is what was going on your head as you glared daggers at the clock hanging on the wall of your lecture Hall.
The professor was somehow still talking even though his lecture was only supposed to be 45 minutes but now it was almost an hour. You were sure he had a personal vendetta against students because why was he taking so much time to leave the students? Did he not have a life?
So, when the clock on the wall finally spelled out the time, which finally prompted your professor to start packing things and grumble “That's all for today.”
You were out of the class at a speed that would put even Usain Bolt to shame.
A heavy sigh left your lips, grumbling a light. “Finally.” You finally made your way out of the college & decided to call the ‘driver’ who was supposed to take you home.
“Leon, please tell me you're here by now?”
You hear his warm rough laugh on the phone that has your cranky mood improving by the minute.
“Hello to you too, princess. Cranky much?”
You groan. “Sorry, tiring day. The prof was taking foreverrr.”
He chuckles once more and clicks his tongue, his voice feigning sympathy. His voice low and smooth. ”Oh poor you. Need daddy to pick you up and treat you?”
Your cheeks flush hearing his words. You could almost feel his smug smirk after he said it. He knew that you loved his voice and he took unfair advantage of it.
“Umm… yeah. Would you please come to pick me up and treat me?”
“Already here, meet me in the parking lot.”
Your heart flips on its own and eagerly reply back. “Okay! See you in a minute.”
You hang up the call with a big grin on your face & with a spring in your step you make your way to the parking lot. This day couldn't get any better, just you, Leon, relaxing in the holidays. Surely nothing could go wro—
“Heyyy, long time no see.”
You get startled by the voice behind you and you turn to find the source. Your eyes narrow in response when you find out who it was.
Fucking Tom. God, why was he here? This guy was worse than a cockroach, even after rejecting him so many times to dates, he couldn't take a hint.
He grins and gives a wave. “Hey, what are you doing?”
“Leaving. Obviously. College’s over.” You shake your head and start walking a bit faster towards the parking lot. But that idiot follows you.
“So, what plans do you have for your vacations?”
“Sleeping.”
“Ha! Me too. But I was thinking we could maybe grab a bite to that cafe nearby? You know, since it's break, I hoped we could–”
“No, I have to be home early. Thanks though.” You grumble and finally walk into the parking lot, searching for Leon's car.
“Well then, maybe we could meet up—”
Your brain stops listening to his words the moment Leon comes into focus. He was wearing his warmest black jacket, looking cozy and hot at the same time. He was leaning back against his car, his dirty blonde hair framing the side of his face which highlighted the features of his face, tapping his foot on the concrete, waiting for you.
Your lips curve in a smile, tensed shoulders relaxing at the simple sight of him. You raise your hand and wave excitedly at him.
Leon's eyes finally flick back to you, he stands up straighter and then waves back in response.
“Wow, I didn't think your dad was picking you up.” Tom said when he saw who you were waving at.
You scoff and look back at Tom. “What?”
Tom shrugs. “That's your dad right?”
Your first response was to tell him off, tell him that he was an idiot for thinking Leon was your dad but then...
You grin back at Tom, eyes glinting with mischief. “Uhh.. Yeah, totally. I gotta go now.” And you leave him behind without waiting for a response.
You run up to Leon with a big grin and hug him tightly. Wrapping your arms around his neck, you bury your face in his neck. “I missed you.”
You feel his arms sliding around your waist, his warm calloused hands tracing your body as he hugs you back. His breath tickles near your ear, his warm voice relaxing you further. “Mmm, missed you too, sweetheart.”
He pulls back just enough to look at your face and gently cups your face with his hands with a warm expression. And kisses you in greeting.
Your arms tighten around him as you kiss him back, his stubble gently pricking your skin, the kiss overwhelming your senses, so when he pulls apart, your lips chase him for seconds.
You hear him chuckling, his thumb pad tracing the soft skin of your cheek as he whispers. “Ready to leave?”
Your cheeks flush at the gentleness of his touch. “Yeah, I'm good to go.”
He softly kisses your forehead and pulls back fully. “Get in then.” And opens the car door for you.
You get in his car & sigh as you realize how warm his car was in contrast to the cold outside. He walks around and settles in the driving seat as he starts the car back up.
You glance back outside through the car window and bite back a laugh when you see Tom's stunned expression. Now he was definitely gonna stay away from you.
Leon starts to drive out of the college’s parking lot, his hand sliding up to your thigh and asks. “So, how was the college today?”
You roll your eyes and groan. “Exhausting, thank god for winter holidays.”
His lips curve into a smirk & replies. “Aww, so hardworking, aren't you? Good thing I bought something to treat you.” And picks up the packed drink from the cupholder and hands it to you. “There you go.”
You open the cup lid and the scent of chocolate immediately fills up the car. A surprised chuckle leaves your lips as your voice turns excited. “You got me hot chocolate!” You take a sip of the drink and groan in satisfaction, your body warming up from the hot chocolate. “Oh god, yes. This is what life's supposed to be about.”
Leon chuckles at your reply, shaking his head fondly. “No thank you?”
You roll your eyes and lean closer to drop a quick kiss on his jaw. “Thank you, Leon.”
His hand gently squeezes your thigh. “Don't mention it.”
You relax further in his car seat and drink the hot chocolate and ask. “So what are we doing today?”
Leon simply shrugs and says. “You tell me, your vacation just started, we should enjoy it. Plus, I'm free too, which is rare.”
Usually you would have said to shop, but right now sitting in his car with the heaters on, drinking hot chocolate, you didn't want to be anywhere else. So you simply shake your head. “No… I want to stay home today. Oh, wait, I know what we can do!” You look back at him with a mischievous grin. “I have plans…”
Leon takes his eyes off the road for a second, meeting your gaze & he knew what was coming. He laughs. “Oh no no.. I know that look.”
You grip his hand that was resting on your thigh and plead to him. “Pleaseee, you don't even know what I'm gonna ask…”
Leon scoffs. “That's what I'm worried about.”
You scoff. “You don’t trust me?”
Leon rolls his eyes. “I didn't say that.”
“Yes you did, I ask for one thing and you say no… you're so mean.” you pout and turn in your seat, facing away from him.
You wait for a few moments and could hear him audibly sigh at your tantrum. “Fine, we can do whatever you have planned at your place & I won't question it. Happy?”
You bite back a smile at his defeated tone & still pretend to be offended. “You could sound a bit happier about it, you know?”
He rolls his eyes, glancing at your curled up form, facing away from him and chuckles to himself. He feigns disappointment and says. “Fine… fine. I am excited & happy about it. Good enough.”
He sees you shrug your shoulders and reply. “I also want you to order take out when we're there.”
He scoffs and replies. “Of course, I will. That wasn't even up for debate."

“If I knew this is what you're planning I'd have suggested going to the mall.” He lets out a long heavy sigh, while his rough yet warm hands gently grip your hips to make you comfortable on his lap.
“Oh come on, it's not that bad.” You reply as you apply the thick, cool facemask on his face, fingers evenly spreading the liquid & avoiding the stubble area, your face scrunched up in concentration.
A part of him was amused that you were so focused on painting his face green with your skincare products. To see you so bothered over the fact that he rarely takes care of himself and you trying to fix it, it gives butterflies in his stomach. Not used to being doted on.
He wouldn't admit it, but a small domestic moment like this makes his heart race. Honestly, he would have said yes to anything you planned to do, cause he can't refuse his sweet dollface, especially not when she's sitting on his lap so prettily.
He rolls his eyes and scoffs. “I look like the grinch, right now.”
“Well, you're being a grinch right now, by arguing about this.”
Leon smirks. “See, it's working already, I'm turning into a grinch right now & it's all your fault.”
You roll your eyes and finish applying the face mask. “It's done.”
Leon looks at himself in the mirror & rolls his eyes. He was wearing one of your cloth headbands which had cat ears on it, so his hair didn't fall in front of his face plus his face was green.
“Great, now I look like a kitty grinch. Does this actually help the skin like you say?”
You scoff. “You don't trust my word? I apply that too, my skin looks good, see?” you place your hands on your face and pout.
“That's cause you're young.” he retorts back.
“You're just jealous that my skin looks better than yours.”
“Yes, I'm green with envy.” He deadpans. But his eyes give it away of how proud he was of himself for that.
You couldn't help but chuckle at it but groan too because God, he could be so lame. Good thing he was so charming, he could make dad jokes look endearing.
You start to close the lid, he grips your hand to halt your movement. He smirks at you. “What? You're not gonna give me a chance to do the same to you?”
“Oh now you want to get into the spirit of it?”
He shrugs and takes the container from your hand. “No, I just want a chance to make you grinch too. Now sit still.”
You grin and sit up straighter on his lap. “Aww, we will be happy grinches together.”
He shakes his head fondly, as he scoops some of it like you were doing earlier and gently starts applying it on your face, starting from your cheeks. You close your eyes when you feel the cool material brace your skin.
He was so gentle with you, doing a domestic thing that he rarely got to do. He was grateful, to you, to this moment. His two fingers gently dab it on your face and spreads it evenly. His heart beats faster when he sees your closed eyes, he could feel the trust you had in him, he leans in to plant a soft kiss on your forehead before he covers that area with the face mask too.
Both of you turn to look at yourselves in the mirror and Leon can't help but grin widely at the sight he sees in the mirror. Reflection of two people with green face masks plastered over their faces & wearing matching cute kitty headbands.
You playfully nudge him and tease. “Look at us, a grinch couple.” you feel his chest vibrate with laughter as his hands tighten around your waist. “Mm.. I guess it does feel nice.”
“See? I told you it'd be worth it.” you said while looking at yourself in the mirror.
You look down to see him already staring at you amusement in his eyes, his fingers gently caressing your thighs as you continue to use his lap like a comfy chair. “So what's next?”
You shrug. “I mean we have to wait till before we take it off but maybe we could get something to eat while we wait?”
You pout at him. “…preferably some takeout, you know my favorite order.”
Leon shakes his head fondly at your words, feigning exasperation. “So dramatic.” And gently presses his lips against your pouty lips, stealing a quick kiss. “I had already ordered the moment we got here. It should be right about…” He pretends to be thoughtful as he snaps his fingers. “Now…”
And as if on cue, the door bell rings.
Your eyes widen and you give him a puzzled look. “How could you have possibly timed this out…”
He laughs wholeheartedly seeing your incredulous expression, his crow feet eyes get more pronounced as he laughed.
He drops another kiss on your lips and grins. “Now, now, I can't reveal all of my tricks, baby. Got to keep a firecracker like you on your toes.” His hands gently pat your ass, silently asking you to get up so he can get the food.
When you do, he stands back up, stretching his arms and groaning lightly. He leans down and kisses your head. “I'll be right back.”
Soon both of you were settled on the couch, your legs resting in his lap & eating take out food together, with face masks on.
Leon quietly ate his food while you vented about your college being an absolute shitty place with shitty people. He didn't interrupt, didn't try to give you logic while you told your problems, he was simply by your side.
But when you noticed, him quietly eating his food looking unbothered.
A quiet insecurity creeped up in your mind, what if he was simply trying to enjoy his food and hated your constant complaints but was nice enough not to say anything? After all, he rarely got his peace and quiet.
You clear your throat and end your venting by saying. “So…yeah that was all.”
Leon paused mid bite of his pizza slice and turned to you. “What was that?” He asked.
You shrug, poking at your food, not meeting his eyes. “What was what?”
Leon frowns and says. “That shift…I'm not old enough for you to make a fool of, doll. ” He puts his pizza back down and wraps his arm around your waist, pulling you in his lap. “What happened?” His calloused fingers gently grip your chin and tilt it so he could see your face.
You avoid his gaze and shake your head. “It's nothing. There was nothing more to say.”
Leon notices your avoidance and says. “I can tell doll, you're not fooling me anytime soon. Come on, tell me, was it me? Did I do something?”
You shake your head. “No…you were good.”
His other hand gently rubs your back and says. “Then? What is it?”
A low sigh leaves your lips as your eyes finally meet his. His warm ocean eyes showed sincerity and affection. You shrug. “I don't know… you just looked so calm & peaceful? I thought I was disturbing that by my useless yapping.”
Leon hesitates and then asks. “What does yapping mean?”
That gets a small laugh out of you, it was adorable that he didn't keep up with day to day slang and simply asked you what it meant. It was in moments like these you remembered the age difference between you two.
You look back at his face and smile. “It just means a person constantly talking and just yap yap yap.”
Leon nods and says. “Ohh… okay.” He hums as he thinks and says. “And you thought by ‘yapping’ you were disturbing me?”
He saw you nod in reply and sigh. “Well, that's silly.” He chuckles and gently taps the tip of your nose. He kisses your temple and smiles. “I looked ‘calm & peaceful’ because I was listening to you talk.”
His other hand continues to gently rub your back in a smoothing motion and softly adds. “I love listening to every other story you have. Trust me, If I wasn't feeling like it, I'd have told you. Plus, I came here to spend time with you. So, that includes listening to you talk, holding you like this, eating together & letting you use me as an experiment mouse.”
You laugh and feel your chest warm back up at his reassurance, maybe it was a bit silly to think he'd be disturbed when he came especially to meet you.
His own smile gets wider when he sees you laughing. He would never want you to think you were an inconvenience at any point. He had too many ‘quiet’ moments in his life where he spent it alone & he'd rather fill that silent void of his life by your words.
He waves at his face, pointing at his face mask, which was nearly dry by now. “You think, I'd let just anyone apply this shit to my face?”
“Okay, that's called skincare, sir. It wouldn't kill you to use it here and then.”
He scoffs. “Okay, so now you're calling me ugly?”
You groan & roll your eyes. “I didn't say that.”
“That's what I heard.”
An exasperated laugh leaves your lips. “Ughh.. I just said that you should take care of your skin!”
“Too late, I'm now offended and hurt that you called me ugly.”
“God, you make me crazy.”
Leon grins and says. “Good. Cause you drive me crazy too.” and winks at you.
You stare at him, exasperated by his antics. “Was this your way of flirting?”
“Yes. And distracting your pretty mind” And gently taps the side of your head. “You'll never be an inconvenience, sweetheart. Not when I'm with you.” And leans in to kiss you sweetly.
You kiss him back, wrapping your arms around his neck as your heart beats faster in your chest, feeling much lighter now that you talked about it.
When you both part from the kisses, he taps your nose once more and says. “Guess the mask has done it's job, ready to wash it up?”
You nod & tease him. “Yup. And I bet your skin will glow when you remove it.”
He rolls his eyes and says. “It better. Or I'm never letting you apply this to my handsome face ever again.” He doesn't let you get off from his lap and instead carries you to the bathroom with him.
Having a nice warm indoor date was just what you two needed.
