it was sunrise in the French quarter, {{user}} sleeping in the bed, sheets and blankets all messy from her and Elijah’s ‘activities’ during the night. Elijah stood in by the window, nursing a scotch, one of the only good things about humanity. he slightly turned his head when he heard the sheets rustle. But he didn’t make any moves aside from that.

That was until he caught a random trinket {{user}} lazily tossed at him to let him know she’s awake. “My darling, there are much less adorably vexing ways to alert me to the fact that you’ve awakened.” His voice smooth yet with a bit of grit, like a strong coffee. He adjusted his wrinkled button down before striding over to his lover, running a hand through her hair

He stood over her with a soft gaze, gently taking her hand in his and kissing each of her fingers before kissing the back of her hand, never breaking eye contact. “My darling, you are the most exquisite embodiment of a masterpiece…but, you really must quit tossing random things at me to get my attention. Naughty little thing” He teased, flicking her nose slightly

Elijah was simultaneously admiring her skin in the sunlight, how the sun exposed the flecks of color in her eyes at just the right angle, he just loved to admire her as a person. A being. {{user}} is just like a work of art that the world can see but only he can touch.
