A Quiet Haven

The door to the otherwise dark flat swung open, letting in some light from the stairwell. Darkness quickly settled into the small hallway again with the click of the door. Stumbling over the shoes, you finally managed to fumble for the light switch on the wall, making the hallway bright again. The sudden brightness made you squirm a little, but apart from the mild photophobia, the glaring light was the least of your worries.

Today had come close to finishing you off, so much so that all you felt like doing was getting those damn clothes off yourself and lying down where you stood. Although the thought of a warm bed was just as tempting.

You shook your head gently, snapping yourself out of your trance. One thing at a time - after all, much to your dismay, tomorrow you were up for an early morning again. If you wanted to wake up at all, you should start moving, no matter how heavy your body felt.

You threw the bags you had to bring home off your shoulders. They fell to the floor with a loud thump, followed by your sigh of relief. Finally at least some of the weight was lifted of your shoulders (quite literally). You would have been happy to push the task of storing equipment to one of your colleagues, but this time it was not an option. With the amount of work that came with the approaching deadline, you knew all too well that others were in no better shape than you. Everyone did and took everything they could to help.

At least there is only one day of this hell left. When you get home tomorrow you will be able to fall into a coma for the next two days and no matter how much the world burns and crashes nothing will pull you out of your warm bedding.

Quickly, thinking about the time you could have spent in bed instead of here, you threw off your coat. The garment fell to the ground, and you had no energy to bend down and hang it up. No matter what, you'll have to be in it again in six hours, so it shouldn't bother anyone if it stays on the floor until then, right?

Now, you were only the shoes away from a well-deserved rest. A goddamn shower could wait until the morning.

Encouraged by the thought of getting rid of that last piece of clothing, you hurried to remove it, disregarding the limits of your tired body. Trying to remove a shoe from one foot a little too quickly, you lost your balance – at least the hallway was small enough that tipping sideways only knocked you against the shoe rack. Loud, but no doubt preferrable that to falling on your face.

“Okay… okay maybe I should sit” you muttered under your breath, feeling the pain spreading through your body. The last thing your already battered body needed. Not falling on your face might have been preferable, but additional bruises weren’t. What the fuck did you even need a shoe rack for when the shoes were scattered all around the hallway!

Frustrated, you leaned against the door and slid down it to the floor. From here, removing your shoes was no longer a problem, however, another obstacle appeared in your way. You had to get up. Or at least move forward and crawl into the room on all fours. You liked the second option a little more, although you knew that if Leon saw you rolling into bed on all fours, he would never let you live it down.

As if on cue, you heard a shuffle coming from your bedroom, and after a moment you saw Leon's head peeking out from behind the door. The poor thing had his eyes barely open and strands of hair sticking out in every possible direction. You would have cursed yourself for waking him up if you didn’t feel blessed by how cute he looked in this state.

“Peanut?” he asked, voice sill laced with sleep. It was obvious that he was not yet fully in touch with reality, partly still in the dreamland from which he had been so brutally pulled.

“Oh, sorry, didn’t mean to wake you sweetheart” in the future you really should come up with as ambitious a nickname for him as he has for you. Peanut. Cute, isn't it? If only! He came up with it one day as you were visiting your parents. Someone – your mother – came up with the amazing idea of looking through family photo albums.

'Leon is already like family anyway! Nothing he wont eventually see' she replied to your protests, pinching his cheek. Many albums were looked at that day and, to your misfortune, one photo caught Leon's attention for longer.

A photo of a Halloween night when you were ten and insisted that dressing up as a peanut had been your biggest dream. It was indeed, a Halloween night to remember, and you had a great time, but Leon also seemed to have a great time listening to your mum’s (slightly exaggerated) story. In the beginning the nickname annoyed you, he went from calling you sweetheart or love to… peanut. But with time, you actually came to like it, keeping the façade of being angry from time to time.

"It's late," he said, after looking at you for a while. Since you sat down on the floor, you continued to put no effort into getting up. Leon yawned, slowly walking closer to you. He squatted down next to you. "Tired?" he asked, as if the bags under your eyes weren't enough of an indication.

You nodded, leaning towards him until your head was resting on his shoulder. Leon was warm and smelled like sleep. You breathed a sigh of relief, feeling how his presence helped you to relax. He was the exact opposite of the hours you had spent away; warmth and relaxation practically radiated from his body. Or maybe you were imagining that from lack of sleep, you couldn’t be sure. Either way, imagined or not, his presence seemed to be enough to make you feel even more sleepy.

"Very," you replied after a moment as your eyes closed. With his closeness and the level of fatigue you had reached, you were ready to fall asleep on the floor.

Something he would never allow. With a quiet laugh, he slid his hands under your knees and back, carefully lifting you off the floor.

“C’mon, let’s get you to bed” he chuckled, kissing you on the forehead. You couldn’t help but smile. He was a godsent angel and you couldn’t understand how you got so lucky to be with him. Not only did he not get mad for being woken up in the middle of the night, he decided to carry you to bed. You’d need to thank him properly once you regain the energy.

You groaned, when he placed you among the bedding, quickly slipping right next to you. It was heaven in it’s purest form.

“Thanks” you murmured, cuddling up closer to him. The feeling of your bones finally stretching out was everything you had dreamed of since the start of this day. You groaned when the pain caused by standing for most of the day finally drained from your body. It was perfection.

“Anything for you, peanut” Leon whispered as he pulled you closer against him. A soft kiss was placed on the top of your head, before he snuggled his face into the pillow. A muffled chuckle escaped his lips as you playfully punched his chest. “Ow, that’s the thanks I get for taking care of you?” he chuckled. Oh, he knew damn well what he was doing!

“That’s the thanks you get for calling me a peanut!” you tried to sound angry, but the amusement was clear in your voice.

You could only laugh at his incomprehensible answer, muffled by the pillow his face was hidden in, before the sleep came to claim you into it’s embrace.

here’s a little bf!leon fluff for the simps (i’m simps) 💗

leon kennedy x gender neutral reader

…

leon lays on the couch, his long legs stretched out across every cushion. the tv is on but he’s hardly watching. just dozing off, fighting to keep his eyes open. waiting for you.

you come home, holding a little tray of coffee. you knew leon would be coming home extra tired. he often works odd hours, not getting off work until early in the morning. this wrecks his sleep schedule, so you decided to treat him with a little caffeine.

you see leon stretched out on the couch. you can clearly see his rib cage rise and fall through his tight black shirt. his breath is in the cadence of someone perfectly asleep. you set the drinks down on the coffee table and and kneel down on the floor next to him. “leon, sweetheart, i’m home” you whisper, trying not to startle him. his heavy eyes open slightly to see you adoringly sat next to him.

“c’mere” he is still half asleep. he pulls you by your arm, beckoning you to join him. you lay with him on the couch, your stomach pressed against his side. you nuzzle your head into his chest, breathing in his familiar clean, masculine scent. “i missed you” you whisper into his chest. he simply responds by running his hand through your hair. twisting a strand around his fingers. the feeling of your body pressed up against his is pure bliss. he couldn’t ask for anything more.

you feel leon’s hand rest at the cradle of your neck as he falls into sleep. you admire his angel like face, it’s always a welcoming sight to see your boyfriend seem so at ease. you drift off too, cuddled closely to him.

never mind the coffee.

Leon sleep headcanons(wholesome) :)

random thoughts hehe

-When Leon's by himself/on a mission/etc. I feel like he'd be able to catch tiny bits of sleep without anyone even realizing it. He'd clock out standing up, body still passively on alert.

-However, when he's with someone he deems safe, it'd be the complete opposite. That man would sleep in the most f*cked up positions.

-Chris walks back to hand him another beer, finding Leon face down on the couch, face pushed so deep into the corner that Chris is surprised he didn't suffocate. Think family guy meme positions. Arms bent awkwardly, grabbing parts of his hair, legs twisted and intertwined with whoever's next to him, etc.

-it just makes me so soft thinking abt him putting his guard down with people he deems safe hehe

Sharing a bed with Leon for the firs time (SFW)

*Leon gets under the covers nervously; he’s never shared a bed with anyone before, much less the person he was dating.

*He starts to get nervous about how to sleep with two people in a bed as he snuggles up next to you.

*You lay on your back as he rests his head on your chest, breathing deeply. As cute as he is, you know you’ll never sleep with his wild purple hair tickling your face.

*you try being the little spoon, tucking yourself against his chest, feeling his steady heartbeat on your back. He’s so warm. Leon gets distracted playing with yohr hair instead of sleeping.

*You both turn over so that he’s the little spoon, despite his height. He sighs happily as your arms wrap around his waist, finally falling asleep quickly.

I feel as though our Leon has some massive #little spoon energy 😂
