Arise
content: over 1.3 words of unedited suggestable fluff, helping Levi get ready in the morning
"Come on sweetheart." You're in bed, leaning over your partner who has just slept through his alarm three times.
Levi mumbles but doesn't move. You smile and kiss his shoulder and neck and are suddenly being wrapped up in his embrace, making you giggle.
"I'm so tired." He says, snuggling into you.
"I know, but after today you have three whole days off." You remind him as your fingers caress his cheek.
"Just five more minutes." He isn't ready yet.
Levi has been working a lot of overtime the past two weeks with no days off in between, and his insomnia has finally been pushed aside due to exhaustion.
"You're already running late. Come on, I'll get your things ready for a shower." You pull yourself out of his grip while he sighs dramatically.
"You're so mean." He doesn't actually mean it, and it makes you chuckle.
Truthfully, even though you have work most days too, you've been very supportive and have taken good care of him, even when he's come home late every night. It's the least you can do as he always takes care for you.
"Oh, am I now?" You ask playfully, pulling the covers away from him and pulling him upright.
Levi finally opens his eyes, blinking multiple times at the light.
He shakes his head. "No, not really." He leans forward to try to cuddle you and you move out of his reach.
"Come on love, shower time." You head towards the bathroom, sure that he'll follow shortly.
Levi sheds his night clothes and steps into the warm shower that you have put to the exact right temperature for him.
In the meantime you lay out his clean clothes, take the dirty ones up and make the bed.
"Thank you." You hear from behind as a damp Levi calls to you from the bathroom.
"You're welcome. Dry off, I'll get your tea." You had put it on after the first alarm went off, and it should be just to his liking right about now.
Heading to the kitchen you pour the tea into his favorite cup just as a stylish Levi comes in and slumps into the chair.
"You still tired?" You ask softly, pushing the cup towards him.
Levi takes a few sips and let's out a breath. "Less so." He looks up at you lovingly, and you scratch under his chin. He closes his eyes and leans into your palm.
"Freshly shaved." You note the whiskers you felt earlier are gone.
"You like it better." He might leave it more often but he knows it's not your favorite.
You kiss his forehead. "Drink up, I'll get your lunch."
"Thanks." He adores the sweet smile you give as you turn to get his bento box ready.
"I promise I'll make it up to you." Levi can't help it. Though he loves when you take care of him, he likes it best when he can do it for you.
"It's okay. I know." It is rare you get to pamper him and savor this time.
He sits watching you for a few more moments before coming over and wrapping his arms around your waist, kissing your neck, completely interrupting your actions when you squeal in delight from his touch.
You turn around and plant a slow kiss on his lips, careful not to put your hands anywhere they could stain his fresh outfit.
"Levi!" You giggle when you pull away. "Come on, you're already late." You point to the wall clock.
"So what? Let's just stay home." He leans in for another kiss and you shift your head so he gets your cheek.
"Stop it. Tomorrow we'll do whatever you want. Today? You go to work mister." You say sternly.
Levi raises an eyebrow. "Whatever I want?" He grins at your laugh, and you bump your hip into him.
"Go run a comb through your hair. I'm almost done." Somehow his hair always seems to look perfect already, but you've got to get him moving out the door.
"Yes ma'am." He jokes, giving your hip a squeeze before going back into the bathroom.
You stand there with a smile on your face for a moment, going back to finish his lunch, grabbing a sticky note and a pen.
You just get everything together when Levi comes back in.
"Hey, what's that?" He asks as he sees the small yellow paper just before you snap the box closed.
"Part of your lunch." You pat the box, going into the fridge.
"But I want it now." He says like a child, shoulders falling. Your notes are his favorite part of his work day.
"No, you'll wait." You insist, pulling out the overnight oats. "And eat your breakfast soon." You give him directions. You don't want him skipping it in favor of lunch. He should he able to get it down in just a few minutes at his desk.
"Okay." He promises, watching you put everything into a lunch bag.
Levi really wants nothing more than to call off today and spend the day showing you how much he appreciates everything you do for him and how much you mean to him. But he knows it's just one more day.
You turn towards him again and blush at the look you see. "Levi." You say almost as a warning.
He shakes his head and wipes the tempting look off his face. "Sorry."
You curl your finger, motioning for him to come closer.
He shuffles over and puts his arms around your waist again, as yours go wround his neck.
"One more day sweetheart. I have some work to do today, but I'll make you an amazing dinner tonight, and I promise, the next three days are all yours."
"That sounds like a good offer." He kisses your mouth briefly.
"You're such a good boy." You smirk at the look this gives Levi.
"Don't do that." He groans, pushing himself away from you, because otherwise he won't be able to.
"Shall I save it for tomorrow?" You give a suggestive sensual smile, batting your eyes.
Levi nods, crashing his mouth back into yours. "Yes, all of it. I'm not letting you out of bed. You hear me?" He whispers against your mouth.
"I look forward to it." And with that you hand him his bag. "Get going, working man. Come home to me quick."
You move to get his keys and jacket as well, resting the jacket over his shoulder and pushing the keys into his free hand.
Levi hums. "How'd I get so lucky?" He still doesn't know.
"I ask myself that every day." You kiss his cheek and go stand at the front door.
Levi gives you another fond look. If only everyone else knew for all the irritable looks he gives to them, he saves all of his softness for you. Chances are some of his friends have a good idea, anyway.
"I love you." Levi gives you one last cheek kiss before heading out.
"I love you too. Have a good day. Eat your breakfast." You remind him, earning you another smile.
"I will." He calls to you, settling in for his drive to work.
You shut the door behind him and stand by the open window, blowing him a kiss when he looks up.
You wait for him to leave the driveway before going about your day, making sure everything is ready for when Levi comes home tonight.
Once at work Levi eats like you told him before starting in, but he can't stop himself from also opening his bento box for your sticky note.
He stares down at it, trying to keep himself composed. You can't wait for his three days off either, it seems.
He sends you a quick text, tattling on himself that he's seen your note.
"How dare you write this." How's he supposed to work?
You send him an innocent smiley back. "Told you not to read it yet."
Levi smiles to himself as he puts his phone down and cleans his desk area.
Oh how he can't wait to get home.
a/n- The title is eh, but I got this out real quick before work. Sorry for any mistakes. Enjoy!
