"BedMates" Drabble
Ok, I've been fiddling with this one since 11/19. Just over a week. I think I finally like it enough to share. So without further ado...
Title: BedMates

Fandom: Anita Blake
Type: Drabble

Author's Note: Written for the Weekend Drabble Challenge at thepard. Requirements: 200 words, sex, food, or sleep. My drabble is a combo of "sleep" and "sex".
Sleep
Anita agreed to let the wolves come stay with her, sleep with her, to keep her beast from trying to slip her skin. Something about her beast being as much wolf as it was leopard. The situation was still new, a bit awkward, and it had lead to a strange complication - Anita could never keep track of her bedmates.
It used to be easy. Cotton sheets meant home. Nathaniel pressed to her front and Micah curled around her back. Silk sheets meant the Circus. Since she didn't sleep with Jean-Claude or Asher after they died for the day, she usually had Nathaniel or Micah along, or she crashed with Jason, or (rarely) she slept alone.
Tonight Anita was home early. The house and her bed were empty. She was too tired to mentally track everyone down. Too tired to think, to worry, to care. Someone would join her... or not. It had been a long week and sleep wouldn't wait.
*****
Anita only half woke when she felt the bed shift and two warm naked bodies press up against hers. All that registered was warmth, strength, and safety. Anita cuddled between their bodies, ready to drift back to sleep.
Sex
Only, they didn't settle down. Hands roamed over her body, urging Anita's arousal. One set of hands gently pulled her panties down, while another set slid under her t-shirt to cup her breasts before working her shirt over her head. Warm wet kisses trailed down her legs and up her spine. She shivered with pleasure.
Clothing gone, the men returned to their task, teasing Anita back to consciousness. She moaned and writhed beneath the twin assault, but made no move to open her eyes or to reciprocate.
After a few minutes, the kisses and caresses stopped. The bed shifted again. She shook off sleep to find her companions had abandoned her ... for each other.
Jason and Nathaniel were kneeling over her, passionately kissing each other. As she watched, Jason fisted his hands in Nathaniel's hair, pulling Nathaniel's head back as he kissed down the leopard's neck.
Anita must have sighed in appreciation, because they broke apart and met her eyes. Blue and lavender eyes twinkled with mischief. Nathaniel tilted his head down, peering through the curtain of his hair, looking slightly bashful. Jason openly grinned.
"Wake up sleepy head," Jason teased. "Your puppy and your kitty want to play."
