Russia x reader: Thank you

You didn't know how you got into this situation, but your Russian boyfriend Ivan braginski had blindfolded you, and taken you to an undisclosed location that was a 2 mile walk, claiming it as a 'surprise'.

~

"Right this way." Ivan said. You pouted with impatience.

"Can I take off the blindfold now?" You asked, clawing at the cloth over your eyes.

"No." Ivan said sternly, smacking your hand away. Not so much as to hurt you, though. You groaned irritably and audibly.

"Oh hush." Ivan said.

Well I mean, you had been walking for about two hours, and your legs were starting to hurt, and your patience thinning, you had alot to complain about. After about seven minutes of silence Ivan spoke again.

"Alright, you can take it off now."

"Finally."

You untied the cloth only for your jaw to drop in awe. You couldn't believe the sight before your eyes. The sky was stained with pink, orange and red hues and better yet, large sunflowers littered the ground standing proud, tall, and beautiful.

"Oh Ivan.." You breathed. Tears pooled in your (e/c) orbs. Ivan, taking this as a bad sign, frowned and leaned down until he was face to face with you.

"What's wrong, sunflower?" You shook your head. "Nothing, it's just.."  Your voice trailed off.

"Just what...?" Ivan felt his confidence wavering.

"It's just nobody has ever taken me someplace so.." Ivan felt his patience mocking him at you not finishing.

"So..?"

"Beautiful!" You cried, throwing your arms around his large and tall frame. Ivan sighed in relief and returned the gesture. You pulled away suddenly, smiled, and inhaled deeply.

"The air.. it's so clean and fresh, I love it!" You exclaimed "nothing like the city!"

"Da," Ivan grinned "I'm glad you like it."

"Like it? I love it!" You threw your arms up in the air and giggled. Then you ran off into another direction, ready to explore until your legs gave out from exhaustion.

"Wait! Hold up!" Ivan cried, trying to catch up to you.

"Come on you slow poke!" You ushered, making your way through the tall green stems. By the time Ivan found you he was out of breath. You were lying on an open space, staring at the sky. Ivan plopped down next to you.

"Have you ever wondered what it's like to live on a cloud?" You asked, deep in thought. Ivan shrugged.

"Not really, I mean you'd die of hypothermia, asphyxiation, and probably starve." You punched his arm lightly.

"You're no fun.." You mumbled. Ivan laughed and began to pick some of the sunflowers that were the closest to him. Your eyes drifted to his, which were focused on the sunflowers, which you noted he was making a flower crown out of. You propped yourself up on your elbows.

"Your eyes.." You started. He looked up from his work and glanced at you. "Hm? What about them?" He questioned.

"I just never noticed how lovely they are y'know..purple..like an amethyst."

"Amethyst?" He tilted his head cutely.

"Yeah, you know..the gem stone." Ivan looked shocked. Never in his life had somebody ever complimented his eyes. Everybody was too scared or intimidated to look into them let alone compliment them, which hurt. A lot. But here you were, laying down next to him, smiling, laughing, making him happy. All his life he felt empty, lonely, his heart cold and frosted over, but then you walked into his life making him smile and laugh and feel loved. You didn't cry in his presence or falter when he spoke to you. He felt tears start to form in his eyes. You shot up.

"Ivan..what's wrong? Are you okay?" You placed your hand on his cheek. Your hands were warm and loving, he noted. He shook his head.

"Nothing, I'm just so happy.." He said. Your eyes softened.

"Oh Ivan.." You took the blindfold and wiped his tears away, smiling gently while Ivan held your hand.

"Where would I be without you?' He mumbled. You smiled.

"I don't know." You laughed. He laughed too and pulled you close.

"Thank you.."
