[He shivers a little, softly - leans into it, like an affectionate cat]

[His thumb drifts idly back and forth across her rib cage, very gentle]

[unbr8kable]

[Her skin twitches under his touch, but she doesn't attempt to move away]

[She just continues to pet him, almost drowsily slow]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[His own touch is just as slow, just as idle; it stutters to a stop, before too long, instead just resting against her]

[unbr8kable]

[She knows she ought to get up, clean them off, perhaps think about how they're supposed to get out of here unnoticed, given the current state of their clothes... Instead, she just settles into the pleasantly heavy warmth of him, and lets her eyes fall shut]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[He doesn't seem much more motivated to get up than she does. He nuzzles in closer - murmurs something sleepy and entirely unintelligible]

[unbr8kable]

[Whatever it was, she hums agreement, thumb still swiping slow and hopefully soothing lines over his back]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[If she's going for soothing, it seems to be working]

[It isn't long before his breathing evens out to something slow and steady, a solid weight against her as he drifts away to sleep]

[unbr8kable]

[Despite her drowsiness, she attempts to stay up longer, perhaps to ward away any nightmares, or perhaps just not to miss a moment of this utter contentment.

Whatever the reason, it's just too lazily comfortable to last for long. And she nods off to the soft rise and fall of his chest against hers]
