Chapter Text
The morning sun is seeping into the white room through the makeshift orange curtains and all the warmth in the world is wrapped in his arms breathing silently in deep sleep. Even’s face is buried in the back of his neck and his nose is smushed up against the pale naked skin that is resonating the heat of the blood pumping through his veins and into the fire that burns within Even’s embrace. Breathing in the euphoric smells of the morning and Even’s natural smell that gives him a one way ticket to sleep. Isak turns into said embrace, crushing his face into the flush chest, and allows himself to drift back into half sleep.
All Even can see is the beautiful curls that sit on the younger boy’s head. Leaning in to press a kiss into loose curls, stirring more restless movements from Isak that are electrifying his chest with such heat that he feels as though this is the only place he’ll ever allow himself to reside in for the rest of his life. He knows now that Isak is awakening from his sleep, as a slight yawn escapes his slender lips, Even pulls back just enough to see the end of this childlike awakening - body slightly contracting and furrowing brow - that is coming from this small boy, but not enough to completely lose his warmth.
“Where are you going? Come back!” Isak whined with his eyes still shut, arms stretching into Even’s chest, wrapping around his waist and pulling him back in, chasing his lips so that they are only a couple centimeters apart. All he can do is laugh, this boy, this grumpy non morning person is so sweet and unbelievably everything I’ve ever wanted.
“I wasn’t leaving, I just wanted to see you, baby,” Even’s voice whispered into his ear, an audible smile rolling off his lips, Isak’s eyes fluttered open.
“You are weird, come back to sleep,” he complains while staring into Even’s pleased eyes, “Nei baby, I’m getting up and I’m never coming back,” Even teases but continues to shift away from Isak’s touch, “If you leave me to freeze in this bed, there will be consequences, severe consequences, my dear.” Isak’s eyes had closed the moment he had begun speaking. He nuzzled himself back into the bed and pillows with what I would prefer to call a false confidence in my inability to resist him. However, realistically, I realize that he is basically 100% correct in my inability to resist him. So in defeat I lay myself down onto the bed but make the decision that I will not fully satisfy my lover boy. I scoot all the way to the very edge and rescind all contact with his skin as I lay onto my back and close my eyes.
My shit-eating grin lighting up my face as I lie in wait for Isak’s desperate disapproval. In what I can only imagine was .2 seconds tops, Isak shoots up into a sitting position, “What are you doing?” My grin has doubled in size at this, “Hmm, just enjoying the morning, what are you doing?” I open my eyes to give him a sideways glance and to deliver my oozing confidence. “ Hey, Even?” I have since closed my eyes, but since hearing his insecure stammer, my eyes have shot open in alert. “Baby?” I plead in questioning, “Love on me?” he whispers while cracking a smile and turning red from ear to ear.
