Chapter Text
He was already snoring by the time you got to his room.
You weren’t surprised. Copia hadn’t gotten much sleep the night before and judging by the increasingly irritated texts you’d received from him as the morning went on he was paying the price. The last one he had sent made your heart ache for your Papa:
I miss being on tour.
After seeing that you had resolved to making sure his one free afternoon this week was as stress free as possible. You’d gotten lunch delivered from his favorite Italian restaurant in town and you’d snuck into Phantom’s room to take back the video game he had borrowed from Copia. An afternoon of Italian food, wine and his favorite racing game was just what you thought he needed.
You debated waking him up but he looked so peaceful you couldn’t bring yourself to do it. After storing the take out in the fridge you went over to Copia and started helping him out of some of his clothes. He grumbled as you stripped him of his shoes and shirt, swatting at your hands when you attempted to undo the laces of his pants.
“Leave it, amore.” He grabbed at your hands and tugged you hard enough you toppled across him. “Sleep now.”
“Copia, I’m still dressed.”
“Shh.” You snorted as he wrapped his arms around you and rolled over, effectively trapping you between his body and the wall. “Sleep.”
“Just le—“
“No talking.”
“Ok ok, fine.” He hummed happily, burying his face in your neck. It didn’t take long before his breathing began to even out and you ran your fingers through his hair to help him along. “Sleep now Papa. I’ve got you.”
You weren’t far behind, lulled by the comfort you always found in his arms.
There’d be time for Italian food and video games later.
