fluff but naked, sleep
They’re feeling lazy tonight. And. It’s just one of those nights where they consider sex, but when they strip down, one yawns and suddenly both of them are yawning and wiping tired tears from their eyes.
“Let’s just… sleep. And in the morning, maybe?” Charlie looks exhausted, though he still admires her.
“Well, I don’t…” Yaaaawn. “You know, maybe that’s an excellent idea, darling. Let’s grab our pajamas…”
“Wait, hold on.”
“Hold on?”
She sees his face redden a little more than it had been—he’s always been easy to get a blush out of—and he rubs his neck and laughs to himself. “What if we just slept like this.”
“Uum…” She feels her own cheeks pink. “Well…”
Charlie turns off his lamp and slides under the covers before opening his arms for her. She can’t say no to those puppy dog eyes! With a laugh, she turns her lamp off and cuddles in close. It’s warm, and there’s something nice about just being close like this. He kisses her gently and smiles before his eyes slide shut.
His skin… his firm body… such a safe place to be. They tangle their legs like always, one of his sliding between her thighs to support the leg she hoists over his side.
Sleepiness catches up with Thandi. His heartbeat calms her. His arms reassure her. His even breathing sets the pace for her.
She falls asleep with a smile.
