Mornings

Saruhiko is beautiful, especially when he sleeps, or so Munakata thinks. It’s such a rare occurrence, getting to see the other like this, asleep, tucked under the blanket. Saruhiko usually stays up far later than him, which is surprising because Munakata rarely sleeps. Though lately, he’s been sleeping better, with Saruhiko by his side.

His eyes are closed, and his chest moves up and down slowly, rising and falling in time with his deep breathing. Saruhiko’s hair is messy, tossed about on his head from all the rolling around he did against the pillow. Against the gentle morning light peeking through the curtains, his skin looks pale and soft, and it’s all Munakata can do to stop himself from reaching out to touch him all over.

Munakata slips his fingers into Saruhiko’s dark locks, trailing his digits through his hair. He tries to remember what it was like to sleep alone, without Saruhiko’s warm presence next to him. His body was probably colder, his bed large and lonely.

This is much better.

Saruhiko’s eyes flutter a bit as they open, and he yawns, staring up at Munakata with a slightly displeased look on his face. “Captain…what are you doing?” he grunts, stretching one arm up.

“Oya…Saruhiko…I woke up and you were looking very cute,” Munakata beams. “I couldn’t help myself.”

“Creep,” Saruhiko scoffs, clicking his tongue, but Munakata thinks he isn’t that bothered by it, since he reaches up and presses his palm against the back of Munakata’s head, pulling him down for a kiss. Their lips connect, and Munakata hums softly, not minding how dry Saruhiko’s lips are as he is just waking up. He runs his tongue along Saruhiko’s lower lip and pulls away, still smiling.

He hopes these mornings together never end. He loves to wake up and see Saruhiko’s sleeping form next to him. He wants to kiss Saruhiko every morning, wrap his arms around him and keep him safe.

“Good morning, my love,” he whispers.

“Good morning, Reisi.“
