Work Text:
You blow the last candle out and crawl into bed beside Lohen. He is lying on his side, smiling sweetly up to you. You can not resist giving him a small peck on his cheek before lying on your back and looking up at the ceiling, waiting for sleep to claim you.
Not even a second of ceiling staring later, Lohen is above you with his hands planted beside your head.
"Just oooone more", he pleads, not waiting for your answer before taking what he wants. It doesn't stay with just one kiss, though. Without leaving room to breath, he connects his lips with yours again and again, deepening the kiss each time. You put your arms around his neck and do your best to keep up.
When he gives you room to breath, he is moving down to pepper small kisses on your jaw and neck.
You attempt to speak "Isn't it en-mmh-" but are promptly shut up by his mouth on yours. This goes on until you are running out of air again. You grab a fistful of his hair and yank it up harshly. He is grinning from ear to ear and breathing as hard as you. Taking a moment to gather your thoughts, you let go and run your fingers through his hair.
"I'm not going anywhere. It's late. We need to wake up early tomorrow."
"Hmm..."
Lohen tilts his head.
"I prefer kissing you over lying awake and only thinking about kissing you."
You firmly plant your hands on his shoulders and push him to the side and on his back with ease, reversing your position.
His eyes look at your lips, then at your eyes. You sigh but can't hide a smile. You lean down and press your lips on his for the last kiss.
"You're not getting any more today. Rest up for tomorrow."
Then you lie your head on his chest, lie down on top of him, and make yourself comfortable.
Lohen's arms hover at you sides for a moment and then engulf you in a hug.
"..."
For minutes, you enjoy silence. He almost convinces you that he accepts to go to sleep. You almost nod off yourself.
If not for a voice to suddenly wisper "Can we pretend that airplanes in the nights sky are like shooting stars?"
You feel obligated to continue and whisper back. "I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now ... and that is to sleep. Archons, I hate you. Don't ever become normal."
"For that I would have to not be normal."
"You are not normal. Please don't ever change."
You cuddle closer and nuzzle into Lohen's neck.
"Love you."
Lohen holds you a little tighter and turns to his side, putting you next to him. He creates a little distance and kisses the top of your head lightly.
"Guess I'll allow you to get some rest", he says in a voice so soft and affectionate, it makes your heart beat higher and your temperature rise.
It is too warm to fall asleep and too comfortable to move. Not that you can, with his arms wrapped around you. His heartbeat so close it feels like your own. There is no place safer than this, right here.
