[ For him, once sleep begins to take hold of them both, pulling them down and away from awareness and headed towards rest, he is content to let it do so. He does not need much sleep, maintaining that he can get by with a handful of hours. But that was before he had someone to share his bed with: someone to hold and be held by while resting. Perhaps he does not need to sleep for extended periods of time, but he is finding that he wishes to, solely because it is more time that he gets to spend with her.

And when he inevitably awakens before her, he is quite content to lie there and observe her, watching the way she shifts occasionally in her sleep and smiling when he notes that her ears and tail twitch at intervals.

As he watches her sleep, he thinks to himself that he would do anything and everything to ensure that they continue to be able to have moments like this: uninterrupted time together with nothing coming between them. Perhaps it is unrealistic and impractical, but they are a pair, and he does not wish to be separated from her for any reason at all. If only he had the power to ensure that his wish could be fulfilled.

But grasping for too much would only set himself up for disappointment, and so he wills himself to be content with what he has. He lightly places one hand against one of her ears, stroking it with a fingertip until he sees that she has begun to awaken.

When she shifts and begins to stretch, a warm smile crosses his face. He truly does love her because of who she is, and her little movements and stretches only endear her to him more.

Once her chin has settled upon his chest and she is looking into his eyes, he looks downward to meet her gaze. ]


Good morning. I hope that you slept well.
