[Part 2/2]

[K i r i s h i m a ]

It's still early... and I'm starting to pick up on a pattern.
He's used to sleeping early, isn't he?

The clock stroke 8:25... and he began getting quiet.. and slow with reactions.
Now, that it's past 8:30, he's fast asleep. 
And he hasn't moved from my chest. I'm not complaining one bit...

I'm just... in complete awe...
My heart is stolen...- I feel in the clouds, I'm in that much awe.

It's the fact that...
he felt comfortable... and safe... to fall asleep in my arms.
Specially after he told me he has such bad insomnia... he fell asleep so easily.

He could've simply gotten up and walked back to his dorm,- Hell, I even told him to get up when he began feeling tired-!

But he just laid his head against my neck and just... fell asleep.

I can't help myself...
I'm peppering the side of his face with small kisses...

He doesn't stir, or wake up... of course, if he did, I'd stop. 
He's so comfortable, though...
He smells good... soft..
His body is warm... his skin is soft...

His soft little snores... 

Did I mention he's still holding onto my hands...

I may have told everyone I wanted to focus on studies... and wait until after school was over to find someone...
But I'm so happy right here... 

Why wait out a normal life if I can live a happy life with him?
I may have just found the definition of perfect--

He slowly flipped over, and clearly got out of his comfortable position. I was starting to fall asleep as well, but I easily got out of the dazed, comfortable state to make sure he got back into comfort.

"Okay... let's lay you down properly, yeah? Get you comfortable and warm... so your body doesn't hurt--"
"K-...Kiri...?"
"Yeah, Baku- I'm here."

He rubbed his eyes and looked around in a daze. 
His eyes finally land on me, but they're squinted and coated with pure sleep. I bite back possibly the widest smile I could shine.

"I...- I gotta.. go back to my room--"
"No, you're okay. You can stay over."
"Are... are you sure..."
"Of course, cutie..." I chuckle. "Can you lay down though? So you're comfortable-?"
"I am.. comfortable-"
"O-Oh,-- Well, I mean...- More comfortable. Stand up for a bit, let me fix the bed."

I try to be quick, so he's not standing for too long. He fell back on the bed and tried to snuggle back against me-
And he smiles. So cutely. When I pull him close to me...

"Comfortable?"
"Mmmmhm..-"
"Good..." 

My heart's swelling while I put a kiss on the top of his head. 

"Mmmh-!" he whined in protest. I chuckle softly. 
"Good night Baku... sleep tight."

I've never had a better night's sleep... then tonight. 
He calmed me down... so effortlessly. 
I took a nap.

I've... never... done that before. I've never been able to do that before.

I could feel his heartbeat.. against my back... I really liked it. 
Cuddling. 
I really like cuddling... with him.

I didn't want morning to come when he's hugging and cuddling me like this... he's really attached to me, but I don't care.

Anyone who tries to take him away from me will fucking get it.

"Baku? Baaaku..."
"Mmmnh...-"
"We got school, Baku. Time to wake up already-"
"Noooo-"
He laughed quietly, "It makes me really happy and calm to see you sleeping so much like this. You slept a full night, Bakugo...!"

He made it sound like... an accomplishment.

"I... can sleep... more... if--"
"But you can't skip school..."

He's not in the bed anymore.
He's changed already,--

Meaning...
He let me sleep a bit longer? Even after the alarm..?

I... didn't even hear an alarm though...-

But he's kneeling beside the bed, and has a hand over my arm.

"C'mon, Baku. We gotta get up."
"Ugghhh..." 

●

The sleep and drowsiness left me as soon as I got up. 
It's the warmth... I fucking know it--

Of course, today was just... normal.
But any time he interacted with me, he would make it just that one bit more special...

I couldn't wait until school was over... 

I...
I'm tired.
I want... to sleep. Finally, I want to sleep again.

In his arms... with him hugging me.
It's like... that fucked up memory.. of the past... fades. When he's with me.

I want to sleep again because he makes me feel safe.
Yeah... I'll let him know that.
