#its lunas fault btw that my minds so in the gutter abt any royalty setting..... blame her!

[alienaiver]

its late and im tired but the thought of royal advisor sugawara is keeping me afloat. hes cunning and has been the apprentice of the former since he was very young, knowing the robes early on. you're close in age and tragedy strikes, making you the heir to the throne in an age much too soon for your own liking. you latch onto him and he helps you, becomes your right hand in a matter of months. he proudly wears the symbol of your kingdom even when he's off duty and spends more time than advised by his peers and family, supporting you because he believes in you. he believes that you can rule your kingdom in a favorable way to your people and grow into the throne.

one night you're going through maps of the coastal regions where trouble is brewing but its late and the duties have been never ending the past few days. suga's next to you, writing down notes from your thoughts and brainstorming of your joint plans when he suddenly feels a weight on his shoulder. with a tense expression he turns his head and finds you soundly asleep, the quill that was in your hand now displaced and rolling over the map, spreading ink. he clears his throat before he dares speak but before a word can leave his mouth he sighs instead, trying to relax his posture and make it more comfortable for you. takes a moment to be selfish like he never is and breathes in your scent, admire the way your mouth moves in tandem with your slow breathing.

restraining himself from caressing your soft cheek proves harder than he thought and a shaky breath leaves him before he says your name to try and gently stir you awake.

when you whine and cuddle closer, he swears his soul leaves his body. "can't be helped then," he sighs out and pats your head gently, deciding that his very own royal highness deserves their rest and if he can provide even an ounce of comfort to his beloved ruler, he would sacrifice whatever it took.
