Work Text:
Like every other day, Ruskin woke up early in the morning. He didn't stay in the bed after his eyes opened up, he immediately stood up and started dressing, ready to begin his work. Ruskin was the personal secretary of the media mogul Charles Augustus Milverton and he loved his job. He tried to fulfill his tasks perfectly, even those responsibilities that he took up by his own will. In his job description, only assisting Mr. Milverton in his business - and other, straight up evil matters was written and Mr. Milverton did not expect other things from him. But Ruskin loved his employer from all his heart and he liked taking care of him. Therefore, he woke up early and spent the time until he needed to wake up Mr. Milverton with making sure that he will be pleased at the beginning of his day.
Ruskin's first crowd led to the kitchen where he made sure that the servants were preparing Mr. Milverton's breakfast, exactly how Ruskin ordered them to do so. If he found everything right, he could go to Mr. Milverton's dressing room to choose what he would wear for the day.
The right appearance was important for someone in such a powerful position as Ruskin's beloved employer, but today, Mr. Milverton worked from home so he was allowed to be more leisure. Ruskin picked comfortable, but at the same time, elegant clothes for him. He liked watching Mr. Milverton from the corner of his eyes whom he found to be breathtakingly beautiful.
Then finally the time had come when he could wake up Mr. Milverton. It was a sacred ritual for Ruskin, his heart always started to beat faster when he saw his employer opening his golden eyes and looking up at him. Ruskin smiled down at him, his hand was still on his shoulder, which he shook gently to get his employer back from the land of dreams when he said.
"Good morning Mr. Milverton."
Mr. Milverton smiled back when he responded.
"Good morning, Ruskin."
Unlike Ruskin, he kept lying in the bed for a little longer until he fully woke up and Ruskin just stood there, enjoying the beautiful sight. Mr. Milverton's curly, silver hair always became a complete mess in the bed, but the sunlight was still sparkling brightly among the hair locks. It was Ruskin's job to comb Mr. Milverton's hair as well - his chosen duty, at least - and he was obsessed with this task. He loved getting lost in the touch in Mr. Milverton's soft hair while the playful curls tickled his skin. There were two locks that kept falling into Mr. Milverton's face and what Ruskin was never able to order, but he loved them the most. It highlighted the hidden mischievousness of Mr. Milverton's nature and when he laughed, they got messy again and Ruskin was allowed to order them with his fingers. Ruskin lived for these little touches. It made him happy.
After the hair-combing ritual, Ruskin helped Mr. Milverton dressing up. It was also one of the activities when he could get infimate with his beloved employer and Ruskin never forget to grab the chance to enjoy it to the fullest. When Mr. Milverton was finally prepared for the day, it was time for their shared breakfast. They always ate together - only Ruskin could get the honor of sharing a meal with the head of the household - but they never talked during it. Ruskin liked sitting silently with Mr. Milvetton who got lost in his evil thoughts. Ruskin found him irresistible when he was wondering about something and crafted his plans, and he sometimes forgot eating while he got lost in the sight. But they eventually got to the study to start the work.
During the day, Ruskin kept assisting Mr. Milverton and fulfilled all his orders, but he also paid attention to his employer's mood constantly. It was important for Mr. Milverton to be pleased and his stomach to be full and his appearance to be ordered. So Ruskin did everything to maintain Mr. Milverton's good mood. He personally made his afternoon tea and the strawberry cake to accompany it. Strawberries were Mr. Milverton's favourite food and he had a serious sweet tooth Ruskin made sure to satisfy. Mr. Milverton loved his desserts and he kept praising Ruskin for them. The little afternoon break was the favorite time of the day for both of them.
In the evening, Ruskin helped Mr. Milverton bathing. He made sure that the water was the right temperature and if he asked, he also washed him down. It rarely happened, but it always made Ruskin almost fly from the ecstasy. He was the only one who was allowed to see or touch Mr. Milverton's perfect naked body and he viewed it as the greatest honor and the example that Mr. Milverton completely trusted him.
After the bath, Ruskin escorted his employer to his bedroom and made sure that nothing would disturb Mr. Milverton's sleep. His day came to the end when he said goodnight to him and he watched as Mr. Milverton closed his eyes and falls into a peaceful sleep.
Then Ruskin returned to rest as well. He slept with a smile on his face, knowing well that he took care of Mr. Milverton and made him happy during the day.
