Nexus: Eights Part 3

Jul 25, 2007 23:37

Anna's been gone for hours. Clark doesn't know whether to be frustrated, worried, upset, scared, furious, nervous, or just plain angry. So he takes turns with each one ( Read more... )

Clark hasn't slept as well as he just did in a long time. From the way Anna's still conked out beside him, he hopes she'll be feeling the same way.

It's still pretty early - he doesn't have to get up quite yet - and so he just lies there, stroking his hand lightly along her arm.

She's awfully cute when she's asleep. And this isn't the first time he's thought that.

A sleeping Anna is downright adorable. All the facades she puts on while awake fall away, leaving nothing but the woman herself.

She cuddles up to Clark in her sleep, mumbling wordlessly, her face lit by a contented smile.

He drops a light kiss on her forehead, hopefully careful enough not to wake her. Clark won't do that until he absolutely has to to get out of bed himself. But there's a little time before that, yet.

She would seem to still be asleep, yes.

Nonsensical mumbling (anyone in the vicinity with a good pair of ears will hear something about how the lemonlopes must be rescued) corroborates that theory nicely.

hero_farmboy July 29 2007, 02:59:52 UTC

Lemonlopes? Clark snorts and settles himself back against the mattress, folding his free arm under his head.

It's Clark shifting away from her that finally brings Anna back into the land of the waking.

She opens her eyes, blinks up at him, and turns to give him a kiss on the cheek, grinning as though she's the happiest she's ever been.

It may very well be the case.

hero_farmboy July 29 2007, 03:11:39 UTC

"Morning," he says softly, grinning back at her. He looks pretty happy himself.

"I didn't wake you, did I?"

downsidedarling July 29 2007, 03:14:41 UTC

"I was going to wake up anyways," she points out reasonably, kissing his other cheek for good measure. "Morning. Sleep well?"

hero_farmboy July 29 2007, 03:19:32 UTC

"Yeah, I did." He says this very seriously, studying her face. "You looked pretty peaceful yourself."

downsidedarling July 29 2007, 03:23:14 UTC

"I'm glad to hear it," she says softly, smiling.

Then, with a curious tilt of her head, "Peaceful?"

hero_farmboy July 29 2007, 03:36:08 UTC

He nods. "Yeah. You looked all cute and happy while you were asleep."

Then he grins. "Especially when you were mumbling about lemonlopes needing to be rescued."

downsidedarling July 29 2007, 03:42:56 UTC

"I... have no idea what that was about," admits Anna, chuckling. "I don't remember my dreams, usually."

A third kiss.

"Merci, mon cheri. T'es chouette aussi-- or am I not allowed to thank you for compliments, either?"

hero_farmboy July 29 2007, 03:55:33 UTC

"I don't remember most of mine, either. Except the flying ones." Beat. "Or the ones induced by various meteor infected things."

He gives her a squeeze. "I'll give you a pass on that one."

downsidedarling July 29 2007, 03:58:49 UTC

"Oh, excellent," she says dryly, eyes twinkling. "Clearly this is a cause for celebration."

Where by celebration, of course, she means yet more kisses. Look, there's one. And another.

hero_farmboy July 29 2007, 04:08:17 UTC

Celebrating is a very good thing. Clark likes celebrating.

The fact that it's naked celebrating makes it even better.

downsidedarling July 29 2007, 04:10:31 UTC

Anna couldn't agree more.

Except for the fact that there's a bit of blanket between them. That, she could do without.

Ah well. Easily fixed, really.
