Nights when you and Eren were way too drained from work to even lift a foot happened pretty often these days due to all the extra stress. Once giving each other the all knowing look as you clambered through your front door, Eren was already dialing the local Chinese takeaway, and you were collecting piles of blankets for the couch so you both could sit there for hours.
The two of you grabbed a couple paper plates, clearing the cluttered coffee table and setting them down, Eren had grabbed the case of beers sitting in the fridge placing it on the table as well. The two of you begin to eat, occasionally laughing and drinking at each other and the tv show, both of you letting your stresses and worries melt away with alcohol and grease.
You had no idea what time it was, the living room was pitch black as the tv had auto turned itself off. Looking over to your side Eren's leg were tucked underneath yours, his head laying sloppily on your shoulder, low snores were leaving his mouth. Checking your phone, lighting it up showing the notifications and the big number's '1:43a.m' flashed back onto your face.
"Eren....Eren... we should go to bed, s'late," merely mentioning your bed a deep yawn gets pulled out your throat. "hUh..." Of course Eren answers back half awake, groaning from begin awake his arms tightening around your waist. "C'mon let's sleep in bed." His arms giving you another squeeze before glancing up at your equally tired face. "Go without me I comfy." You groan at his childish words, sure he was cute when he was tired but it's too early in the morning. "But I can't sleep without you."
His head slowly poking back up raising a single eyebrow up at you, "I think you drank too much babe." A frustrated sigh escaped your mouth, pulling on a single one of his arms in hopes to get him to move with you. "Please Eren, I need to cuddle with you," a small smile is blissfully placed on Eren face, taking one of his hands, resting it on you cheek giving it a loving stroke. Normally Eren would of just gone with you without any hustle but he woke up and choose violence.
"Dunno, m'comfy right here... besides you kick me when your drunk sleeping", he couldn't help but grin at your pouty face and whines. "I don't care if you don't like it, jus' need you to come cuddle in bed', the two you slowly waking up shaking off any tiredness both of you were feeling, Eren liked seeing you all riled up in such a sleepy slow state.
He pushed his way up on the couch, untangling his arms around you and leaning against the soft cushion so he could clearly watch you. "It's a real shame I know, but I ain't moving." You scrunch your nose at his sudden southern accent, kicking a single leg at him jabbing at his side and laughing at his groan. "See? That's what you get", your face only lit by the moonlight drifting in from outside let’s Eren see your lips wrap up into a smile letting him know you think you've won this little scuffle.
But feeling where his hands were resting, one on your calf and the other around the base of your foot, he did what any sane person would do in this situation.
Out of no where, Eren starts frantically moving his hands, wrigglingly them up and down your foot and leg, reaching out further his hands begin to tickle your waist. Eren soaked in your laugh, the deep belly laugh only he could bring out of you and he loved that, that laugh that ripped through your chest was so beautiful to him. It just sounded bright and cheerful, his cheeks automatically stretching in a wide smile to join your frantic laughs.
After regain your strength from begin trapped in shock for a couple seconds, you pull his wrist away from your body, huffing and frowning in a overdramatic tone. "That was uncalled for", Eren let out a deep velvety laugh that sent pools of warmth to your stomach, he couldn't help but laugh at your disheveled hair and flushed cheeks.
"Didn't realize your feet were so ticklish", he tells you trying hard to keep himself from bursting out in laughter again. You grunt in response, turning your body to the side and craning your neck to look away from his face, "M'not ticklish," "oh really, then you wouldn't mind if.." Eren's hand slips back underneath your left foot, jutting forward you kick him softly in the stomach, "No! I already said I'm not ticklish dummy." Eren smiles warmly at you again making you easily forgive his antics, still embarrassed from him finding out how ticklish your feet really were.
In one swift motion Eren grabs your arm lifting you up and off the couch, feet landing on the cold hard floor beneath you both. Then suddenly yanking you up so he was holding your bridal style you gasp, glancing up at his face that held a goofy grin, "what are you doing?".
"M'taking us to bed? Cuddles remember?!?"
