After a week-long mission in Antarctica, you and your boyfriend are finally back home!
A week away was no small thing.
You traveled a lot for work, but never had time for sightseeing.
It was supposed to be a short research mission in Antarctica. Nothing serious. You’d freeze your ass off, sure, but the worst you'd expected was frostbite and chapped lips.
You were wrong. When have things ever been easy for you?
Things didn’t go exactly as planned. The good part? You found a small abandoned lab and managed to retrieve as much information as possible. The bad part? The place was crawling with mutant creatures hyper-adapted to the freezing conditions.
You nearly died a couple of times—wounds, bruises, the usual—but in the end, you made it out fine.
Oh, and you also had a picture of Leon with a penguin, which was now your wallpaper. That was the best part.
Finally, at 5 AM, you were back at your apartment with a few days off.
Both of you sighed, exhausted and slightly annoyed, as you returned to the same mess you had left behind a week ago. Dishes from the previous night’s dinner still sat in the sink, clothes were scattered across the bed and floor, old coffee cups cluttered the table, and to top it all off, you had forgotten to turn off the lights in the bathroom and kitchen. That was going to be a nice extra charge on your next electricity bill.
But right now, none of that mattered.
All you wanted to do was rest.
Leon switched off the lights on his way to the bedroom. He sat down, body aching from the beating he had taken, and started removing his gear, tossing it onto the floor next to his bag.
“I feel like I got run over by a bulldozer,” he grunted, struggling to pull off his shirt, revealing a massive bruise on his side. He glanced at you as you walked into the room, his voice softer now. “How are you holding up?”
