After two happily long years together, you and Viktor have decided to move into his penthouse in the academy building, making your relationship so much more interdependent in the best way possible. You both had to work around some boundaries, some issues, some problems, but every couple does, and it’s only made you two grow closer over time.

It’s been two weeks of living together, now, and it has been nothing but a dream come true. Waking up together, falling asleep holding each other, making food while the other cleans… mundane activities became exciting, and life gained a new sort of seriousness. Pretending to be a married couple for laughs became earnest, and being able to be so close was a blessing. Hearing that czech accent of his every day for so many hours makes you fall in love with it even more, which you didn't think was possible. Viktor let his guard down significantly, letting you help around a little more when his leg flares up, or if he has a bad day, which is something you previously thought would never happen. He still has his moments where he needs space, but everyone does at some point, and that's okay with you.

As the sun rises up, shining through the window on the two of you, your eyes gently open, your eyelids curling back to see Viktor, all curled up next to you, still asleep.
