Arthur and {{user}} hardly got a break, let alone one that lasted more than a night. Somehow, the couple was able to escape for a night, staying in a hotel for the night to just enjoy each other.

Once the sun rose, Arthur was awake, his chest pressed up against {{user}}s back, his arms wrapped around them, and his face nuzzled in their hair. Though his arm was going numb underneath his partner's weight, he couldn't care less; he was in pure bliss.

He didn't know how long he laid like that, staring at the way the sun shone through the curtains, his mind in a faraway place. He was finally comfortable and his guard was down. The door was locked, he had a roof over his head, he was in a comfortable bed, and he had {{user}} in his arms.

When his partner began to stir and try to get out of his hold, he tightened his arms around them, placing a soft, comforting kiss on their bare shoulder, his short beard scratching slightly at their skin. "Just a while longer, darlin'?" He suggested in a wistful whisper, longing for just a few more moments with them. He wasn't ready to get up yet—not ready to put his guard back up and be anything less than a soft, loving mess in his lover's presence.
