Petra held down her giggles as she crept into Rivaille's room. She and the rest of the group only just came back, an hour or so before dusk had hit. Earlier in the day, Hanji had dragged them all off in hopes of finding new bits of knowledge or research materials. Rivaille had denied, saying he had far too much paperwork to do, and the rest of them went off, proving a fruitless expedition.

Coming back to find him like this was certainly a nice treat after a hard and incredibly annoying day, filled with Aurou and Erd's silly teasing, and Hanji's rambling.

She bit down on her lip as she looked at her leader admiring himself in the mirror. Pants slung down low on his hips was all he wore, his thumbs hooked around where the harnesses would be attached, shoes placed near the door and shirt neatly folded upon his cot. She smiled fondly as the man peered at his reflection, an eyebrow raised.

Despite the fact that he was so serious all the time, the man was incredibly vain. He knew he was good looking, and he certainly used it to his advantage sometimes. Smirking, the ginger haired woman began to slowly tiptoe over to him, knowing that the stone floor wouldn't make a single noise to give away her presence. She watched as he took a hand and ran it through his hair, shaking his head after a beat and looking out the window.

Clearly not one to talk to himself, he only huffed in annoyance and stretched out, his muscles sharp and defined, even in the dull light of almost dusk. As his eyes closed and a yawn slipped from his lips, Petra pounced, her hands wrapping around him and pressing her entire body against his bare back, her chin lowering to his shoulder, making it so that he would know it was her, without doubt.

In the mirror, she watched his eyes snap open and then relax upon seeing their jointed reflection. He rolled his eyes and set his hands atop hers.

"You came back early?"

"Mmmmmmhm. I thought I'd surprise the man of stone." she said, a slight giggle passing her lips.

"I'm assuming the mission was fruitless if you're this giddy. Hanji only brings bad news with her "discoveries".

"Well, to be fair, there certainly is nothing GOOD about those monsters." she replied before she, too, yawned, resting her cheek against the crook of his neck.

He allowed the slightest twitch of his lips to pass as he looked at the reflection again. The woman's eyes were closed, but he was sure if they were open, the golden brown orbs would be glowing. He shook his head and turned, making a note to memorize the image that he had seen. His hands found her waist and he settled his gaze against her affectionate expression.

He might have looked good in that mirror, but the two of them looked even better.


Hello everyone! I'm starting a little Rivetra drabble-dump. Whenever I write a little itty-bitty bite of Rivetra, it will go in this. :3 This will cover tragedy, comedy, drama, fluff and anything in between.

I hope you enjoy!
