Home Is Where You Two Are (RivarminFar)
I wrote this today on my way home from university and before I’d have to do more uni stuff at home :’) Enjoy some hella rare rarepair fwuff.
This might or might not have been inspired by the fact that I am someone who doesn’t like freezing weather or winter at all haha
“I’m home.” Armin called out in the direction of the hallway as he closed the door and took off his parka and boots. He hummed to himself, singing a song that got stuck in his head today.
“We’re here!” Farlan shouted from what appeared to be emitted from the inside of the living room. Armin exhaled a last heavy huff to shake off the coldness he had carried along all the while during his walk home. Winter approached closer and closer and Armin fancied the thought of being home after work more and more. Nothing could convince Armin to trail in nostalgic comfort other than the moments of being cloaked around in a fluffy blanket, a cup of hot coffee or cocoa glowing his fingers warm, and the fireplace blazing tranquil flames in the background. Nice addition – and cherry on top – is either an intriguing book by his side or a fourth source of warmth and coziness that would come from his dearest beloved ones.
Having reached and halting by the threshold of the living room door, Armin figured that they had already made preparations. He whiffed a petite small to that lovely image.
Cocooned in a big bordeaux blanket, Levi and Farlan were resting on their couch—Farlan leaning against the armrest, Levi against his chest. The latter had his eyes closed and Farlan was streaking his fingers soothingly through Levi’s undercut, a content beam layered on his face.
“Welcome home, Armin, darling.” Farlan’s voice sounded off in coos through the still living room, as if the melody were to heal every wounds and cleanse every mind.
Home sweet home, Armin thought and produced a bigger mirth around his lips.
Of course he didn’t want to miss the chance to have some of Heaven on earth that was presented to him. “I’m freezing. It’s so cold outside.”
“Come ‘ere.” Levi eventually spoke, with eyes still closed he made a beckoning motion from under the blanket that one could assume as such. Listening closer, Armin could swear Levi had almost whined; as if desperate for more body heat to be shared with him.
Armin chuckled. He closed the distance between himself and them, dreamily sauntering. Levi had opened his arms wide for Armin to slip under the covers, which he did. He tilted his head high until he could see in Levi’s slightly parted eyes that were about to settle on resting closed again. Levi took the hint, leant in and pecked Armin’s cheek. He also gave him a warming hug, embracing with all of the blanket surrounding them. “You’re damn cold, how are you not frozen yet.”
“I’m close to, though.” Armin giggled and found a comfortable position against Levi’s body until…
“Hey,” Farlan remarked, pouting, “We’ve snuggled for a long while now, Levi, I wanna cuddle with Armin too.”
Levi clicked his tongue groggily. “Rude-ass spoiled brat.”
Armin nudged Levi’s ribs playfully, but moved to switch places with Levi anyway. Levi played along only reluctantly, deliberately taking his time to move to the front.
Armin and Farlan exchanged a welcome kiss, smiles plastered on both’s mouth as they parted before Armin scooted Levi closer to him, giving him a crushing fond hug. His neck was peppered by pecks until Levi rolled to the side and snuggled into Armin’s chest.
Light warmth that felt as soft and pure as bittercold snow shimmered around them.
Not only Armin, but especially Levi, and Farlan too, did like the momentary happiness that came in form of innocent close togetherness.
And nobody could take that away from them.
This was their definition of showing some love that didn’t need words.
Farlan pressed a candid smile on Armin’s head and leant back, Armin blushed with sweetness and Levi drifted off to another world in his mind (even if with a slight frown from the previous inconvenience); far away from this reality, but ever so closer to his boyfriend’s hearts.
Given that all three of them had kind of fallen into a reverie together – and because of the other’s pleasant presence –, the thought of them slowly wheeling into their own little world wasn’t so untrue.
