Work Text:
You woke up on Christmas morning around 10 am, enjoying the realization that you weren't in a rush to go anywhere and could just enjoy the slow morning and stay in bed at least for a decent while longer. After all, the person next to you was still happily asleep. You stretched and slowly turned on your side so that you'd be facing him. Freppa was sleeping on his side, left arm resting on the edge of the pillow. He looked so peaceful and you had to hold yourself back so that you wouldn't have leaned in closer to kiss him and most likely woken him up in the process. Still, you gently brushed a stray strand of hair off of his forehead. He stirred a little and moved closer to you, but didn't seem to wake up. All of that just made it so much harder to stay on your side of the bed. Freppa then mumbled something in his sleep, but it was too quiet and unclear for you to make out any of the words. But he moved his hand, as if he was searching for you. That was when you couldn't help it any longer and placed your hand on top of his. A little, subtle smile lit up his face as he linked his fingers with yours. He really was so adorable like that.
After a few more minutes Freppa finally opened his eyes. You were the first thing he saw, and his smile widened as a result.
"Good morning, Freps,"
you greeted him in a soft, quiet voice and finally leaned in closer to kiss him.
"Morning,"
he mumbled in response, eyes still half-lidded.
"And Merry Christmas.."
He still sounded so tired.
"You feeling like being a snuggle bug this morning?"
you inquired with adoration in your voice. Freppa mumbled something that sounded like he very much thought it was a good idea.
"We're not in a rush to go anywhere, right..?"
You shook your head and said to him:
"No, we've got nowhere else to be. We can just take our time and enjoy the day at our own pace. Tommy and Määnin are coming here for dinner, but that obviously won't be until much later."
Freppa nodded sleepily, head still comfortably on the pillow.
"I can go make you some coffee if you want?"
you offered after a few comfortable minutes. Freppa gave you a little nod.
"That sounds great, thank you.. I'm going to stay here and wait for you to come back."
You smiled as you got out of bed, put on your warm, fuzzy socks and headed towards the door.
"You sleepyhead. Alright, I'll be back in a bit."
As you walked back into the room with two mugs filled with coffee, you saw Freppa still under the covers, as comfy as he could get.
"Bug?"
you called out gently and saw him open his eyes as you walked closer. He then sat up and took the mug from you, gifting you a smile.
