â summary-youâve always watched Elvis with his cigarâtonight, at Graceland, you finally decide to try it yourself.
â pairing- elvis presley x fem reader
Graceland always had a way of feeling alive at night.
Even when it was quietâwhen the phones finally stopped ringing, when the laughter from the living room faded, when the house settled into its familiar creaks and sighsâit still felt like it was breathing. Like it was watching.
You loved nights like this.
You were curled up on the couch in the den, legs tucked beneath you, wearing one of Elvisâs shirtsâan oversized, soft thing that smelled faintly like his cologne and something warmer. Something unmistakably him. The television was on but muted, some late-night show flickering uselessly as background noise.
Elvis sat in his favorite chair, legs stretched out, one arm draped lazily over the side. He looked⌠comfortable. Relaxed in a way he didnât always allow himself to be.
And he was smoking a cigar.
That was what had your attention.
Not the TV. Not the soft hum of the house. Not even the way his dark hair curled slightly at the nape of his neck.
The cigar.
It was thick, held between his fingers with casual confidence, the end glowing softly every time he took a slow drag. He didnât rush it. Never did. Elvis treated cigars like a ritualâslow inhales, gentle exhales, smoke curling lazily around his face.
You watched, fascinated, as he exhaled a perfect ring.
It floated in the air for a moment before dissolving.
You blinked.
ââŚOkay,â you murmured.
Elvis glanced over, eyebrow lifting slightly. âOkay what, baby?â
You shifted on the couch, biting your lip, eyes still locked on the cigar. âI think I wanna try that.â
The room went very still.
Elvis lowered the cigar slightly, turning his head fully to look at you now. His expression was⌠unreadable. Somewhere between amused, surprised, and suspicious.
âYou wanna try a cigar?â he asked slowly, like he wanted to make sure heâd heard you right.
You nodded, a little sheepish but determined. âYeah. Just once.â
He stared at you for a second longer, hesitation clear in his eyes. He tapped the cigar lightly on the ashtray, then ran a hand through his hair. âI dunno, baby⌠Theyâre kinda strong. I donât want you coughing your head off.â
You smiled softly. âIâll be careful. I just⌠wanna try it with you.â
He studied you, his blue eyes warming, and then let out a long, low chuckle. âWell⌠alright. But donât say I didnât warn ya.â
You grinned. âI wonât.â
âWell, Iâll be damned,â he said, shaking his head. âDidnât take you for the cigar type.â
âI didnât take me for the cigar type either,â you shot back. âBut you make it look⌠nice.â
That earned you a look.
One of those looks.
His lips curved slightly as he leaned back in the chair. âThat so?â
You shrugged, trying to look casual while absolutely failing. âYou look all⌠relaxed. Mysterious. Like some kind of movie star.â
He laughed properly this time. âBaby, I am a movie star.â
You rolled your eyes. âYou know what I mean.â
Elvis studied you for a moment, his gaze softening. There was affection thereâdeep and warmâbut also something protective. He took another slow drag, then tapped the cigar gently against the ashtray.
âYâknow these ainât exactly candy,â he said. âTheyâre strong.â
âIâm not asking to smoke the whole thing,â you said quickly. âJust⌠a puff.â
He hummed thoughtfully, eyes flicking back to the cigar, then to you again. âYou ever smoked anything before?â
âNope.â
âNot even a cigarette?â
You shook your head. âUh-uh.â
He laughed again, disbelief clear in his voice. âLord have mercy. Twenty-four years old and still pure as the driven snow.â
âHey!â you protested. âThat is not true.â
He smirked. âCouldâve fooled me.â
You grabbed a throw pillow and lobbed it at him. He caught it easily, still grinning.
âAlright, alright,â he said. âDonât get feisty.â
You scooted closer on the couch, eyes hopeful. âSo⌠will you let me try?â
Elvis sighed dramatically, like he was being asked to hand over a state secret. He stood up slowly, crossing the room toward you. Up close, the smell of the cigar was richerâearthy, smoky, oddly comforting.
He stopped in front of you, looking down with a fond shake of his head. âYouâre gonna cough,â he said, teasing. âAnd youâre gonna look all cute while you do it.â
âProbably,â you said, grinning.
âYouâre gonna make a face.â
âDefinitely.â
âAnd then youâre gonna tell me itâs gross.â
âMaybe.â
He chuckled. âStill wanna try?â
You nodded. âYeah.â
He leaned down, bringing himself to your level, and held the cigar out carefully. âAlright. But listen to me, sweetheart.â
You met his eyes, suddenly very aware of how close he was. His gaze was intense, but there was a sparkle of mischief there too.
âDonât inhaleâwell, just a little, alright?â he said gently. âJust donât overdo it.â
âOkay,â you said, smiling nervously.
âAnd donât rush it.â
âOkay.â
He paused, his eyes scanning your face. âAnd if you hate it, you donât gotta pretend you like it just âcause I do.â
Your heart softened. âI know.â
He smiled at thatâreally smiledâthen positioned the cigar properly between your fingers.
It felt strange. Heavier than you expected.
âLike this?â you asked.
âYeah,â he said softly. âJust like that.â
You brought it to your lips, glancing at him nervously. âYouâre watching me like Iâm about to defuse a bomb.â
âFeels about right,â he teased, giving your hip a playful nudge.
You took a small pullâand inhaled.
Immediately, your eyes widened and a coughing fit hit you. Smoke burned your lungs, but there was also a strange thrill to it. You gasped, waving your hand in front of your face.
âOhâwowâokayâoh gosh!â you laughed between coughs, tears prickling your eyes. âThat isâoh my godâthat is strong.â
Elvis burst out laughing, stepping closer and rubbing your back. âEasy, baby, easy! You did it! Look at you.â
âIt tastes likeâlike wood and fire and regret,â you managed between laughs.
He laughed so hard he had to turn away for a second. âRegret, huh?â
You nodded emphatically. âImmediate regret.â
He took the cigar from you, still smiling, and set it down safely before pulling you gently to his chest.
âYou alright?â he asked, amused but concerned.
âYeah,â you said, still giggling. âI donât think Iâm built for cigars.â
He wrapped an arm around you, pressing a kiss to your temple. âThatâs okay. More for me.â
You leaned into him, grinning. âBut I get why you like it.â
âOh yeah?â
âYeah,â you said softly. âIt suits you.â
He looked down at you, eyes warm and affectionate. âYou suit me.â
You smiled, resting your head against his chest as the room settled around you againâquiet, comfortable, full of love.
And somewhere in the air, a faint trace of smoke lingeredâsweet, warm, and just a little bit funny.
