Hard Time Challenge 100 #25 - Mr. Sandman: Send Me a Dream
S5 Keller pining for his Sweet Baboo...
~Send Me a Dream~
Sprawled out in the big hammock out back, Chris tightened his hold on Toby just a fraction, beyond content with Toby warm and sleepy in his arms, bright sunlight filtering through the leafy branches of the trees. Toby's head moved against his shoulder and Chris stroked his hair, smiling at the grumbly/sleepy sounds coming from him.
He didn't want to wake him -- but part of him did, and he ran his hand through Toby's hair again, ruffling it, scootching around so they were facing each other and he could cup his hands around Toby's face and kiss his mouth--
CLANK
He raised his head, the dream slipping away, reality kicking him in the gut in the form of Officer Howell standing outside his cell, knocking her nightstick against the bars.
