Today had been long. Exhausting, actually. oh well. at least you got to come home to a man who understood pressure.

Sylus had greeted you once you walked through the door but, in your foul mood, you snapped back in return and headed to the bedroom where you proceeded to change into something more comfortable.

Angry and in need of something to take your mind off of the day, you decided to go on a run. searching for Sylus to let him know where you were going, you found that he had locked himself in his office to work. so, you left for about an hour and half and came back when it got dark.

the best idea you’d had all day hit you- a warm shower. except on your way to your shared bathroom, you met Sylus changing out of his suit. he turned to you, bare chested with a shirt in his hands. you stood there for a second before you walked to him, sincerity in your eyes

“i’m sorry for snapping earlier. i had no reason to take my day out on you and if it hurt your feelings, i really want to apologize for it. you haven’t done anything wrong but you just happened to be there. that’s no excuse for it.” He watched you, crimson eyes studying your face

“i have no more excuses, Sy. i’m sorry, and i won’t sn-“ you were cut off by a kiss, making you shut up. when you looked at him, he had his signature smirk on his lips

“Calm down, sweetheart. it’s not that big of a deal.” his voice was like velvet and you melted “Now go get in your shower and i’ll meet you in the kitchen.”

your shower was long, to say the least. the only reason you got out was because you were hungry. so, you met Sylus in the kitchen where he already had some pans set up. tacos, you assumed from the ingredients.

you set your phone up on Netflix and pulled up a movie Sylus hadn’t seen so you could distract him. you took over cooking, watching the movie out of the corner of your eye. Sylus’ arms found their way around your waist, his chin atop your head as the movie continued.
