Work Text:
As you lay in bed late one night, browsing your phone for nothing in particular, your semi-sore eyes glance towards the top corner of the screen for a split second. You catch a glimpse of the time flashing two thirty in your face, reminding you that you have to get up for work in about three hours.
You give up the notion of getting any sleep tonight- it's not like you tried very hard in the first place, you think with a dry chuckle. Whatever, sleep is overrated. (You will regret this decision come morning, but that is simply not your problem right now.)
You move to continue scrolling when the bed dips violently, causing you to nearly drop your phone on your poor sleepy boyfriend. His screen flickers dimly, bathing you in his florescent light as he grumbles incoherently.
He (metaphorically) blinks at your sheepish expression, and before you know it a large paw is plucking your phone out of your hands and tossing it out of reach. You shoot him a playful glare and he simply shrugs in response, scooping you into his chest with a satisfied grin.
You sigh, tucking your head into his neck as he drags his claws lightly down your back, antenna bobbing against the top of your head. He's always liked the scent of your shampoo, often swooping down to sniff your hair in his own way. Some would find that a tad creepy, but along with most of his odd mannerisms, it simply comes off as cute to you.
He shifts to curl around you further, cocooning you into his warmth as his screen goes dark again. Your own eyes begin to drift shut even as you struggle to stay awake, wanting to hold onto this moment forever.
