Wondertrev + Sleeping in
It is early enough in the morning that the skies carry that specific patina of the night hours clinging on to the dark. Soon, Steve knows that morning light will begin to slide through their curtains and another day will begin.
There’s about a million things he will need to do - and that’s just the things off the top of his head - coupled with the fact that they’ll be having friends over for the weekend, it all adds up to a very busy day to come. If anything, it would make sense to get a head start in tackling it.
But as his mind races with his list of chores, he hears the soft pats of snowfall finding home on the ground. Their bed is so very warm and the quiet of their room is punctuated by the harmony of the radiator humming away and Diana’s steady inhalations and exhalations next to him.
Steve can’t help the soft glow of happiness that spreads through his chest at the thought of Diana. Turning to her, he uncurls a stray lock of dark hair that had fallen over her eyes in her sleep, gently tucking it behind her ear. She stirs a little under his touch and he shuffles closer to her when she reaches out to him, still unwaking.
Wrapping an arm around her, he pulls her to his chest, comforted and lulled a little by the way her shampoo fills his senses and the weight of her against him. Steve kisses her on the crown of her head, closing his eyes. Maybe it would be okay to just sleep in a little.
