This night was suppose to be more active. We had finished dinner and cleared up the table. Now we were snuggled up together under my blue throw watching anime. Not sure when but she had fallen asleep. Not a big deal but we were sitting up and she had my arm pinned with her head. I don't object to her sleeping on my arm. In fact it is my preferred way of sleeping, holding her close to me. But sleeping sitting up would not be good for her neck and back. Plus the blue throw wouldn't keep us warm all night.
I can't get a warmer blanket. I can't carry her to bed. Not unless I pull my arm out but that would wake her. I can't bring myself to do that. I don't normally get to see her sleep. Feel her body so soft and warm against me, leaning on me for support. Run my fingers thru her hair without her fussing at me for ruining it.
I finally work up the resolve to move so I can carry her to bed and tuck her in. I place a soft kiss on her forehead. As I pull back I see that smile. I know she's been awake. How long? I burn with a pink flush and kiss her again.
