You're warm. Content. Mostly asleep. There's just a small bit of your brain awake enough to be aware of your partner.
Crosshair is sprawled on your couch. You're tucked between his lean form and the back of the couch, perfectly safe and relaxed.
The two of you had been watching a holomovie. When he'd started dozing, you turned off the movie and tucked the blanket around the two of you.
Now, if only tomorrow would never come. You sigh and tuck your face against Crosshair's neck, your hand resting over his heart.
You're just about gone when Crosshair shifts on the couch. A spike of panic flares in your chest, bringing you to full wakefulness. Crosshair isn't very cuddly on the best of days, despite the two of you having been dating for almost a year now. Had your movement been enough to wake him? Would he be upset you'd taken advantage of his sleepy state to snuggle?
Rolling on his side, Crosshair pulls you against his chest and drapes one of his long legs over both of yours. His hand smooths down your spine to rest on your lower back.
"Go back t'sleep, princess," he mumbles.
The tension melts out of you and you let out a soft huff as a smile lifts your lips.
"Okay," you whisper.
You gently kiss the angle of his jaw, then tuck yourself under his chin and let yourself drift into sleep.
