A/N

I couldn't help myself since being sleep deprived, I pictured a sleepy, cranky Constantine in my mind and one thing led to another plus I love him and his mischievous little thief Sneaker plus I love Constantine and Ricky Gervais together as they act like brothers/ best friends.

In this little story, Constantine has been up all night or for a lot of nights pulling mischief and heists but sleep deprived which both Ricky and Sneaker can see and try to convince him to take an nap before he hits the wall.

I hope fellow Constantine fans enjoy.


It was early morning as a certain master thief entered his friend Ricky's house where he and his daughter Sneaker was living since being a thief, it was hard for Constantine for get a place of his own but Constantine had been out late most nights, pulling mischief among other things like heists yawning plus there were dark rings under his eyes which was a sign of tiredness hearing mischievous laughter seeing Sneaker up hugging his leg making a tired smile cross the Bad Frog's face because his little thief made him happy to be her father..

"Wow, Daddy you look really sleepy, you were out all night right?" Sneaker said to him seeing him nod drinking coffee since it would wake him up seeing Ricky there too who was worried for him making breakfast plus Sneaker had school today, seeing Constantine quiet.

He knew his best amphibian friend was exhausted but he wouldn't admit it seeing Sneaker pour herself Lucky Charms seeing Constantine tired and snapping at him seeing Sneaker sigh because she loved her Dad and he always had energy to play or teach her thief skills or help her with school stuff and karate so seeing him tired and cranky made her a little sad seeing him tired and sluggish because that wasn't him.

"Uncle Ricky is right, Daddy you need an nap like Uncle Sam when he's grumpy and Jean makes him take an nap so he feels better." Sneaker told him seeing her dad yawn while drinkimg coffee but caffeine wasn't the answer to his sleep problem which Ricky agreed with because he cares about him, and his well being.

"Yes but Bad Frogs don't take naps!" Constantine to,d her hearing Ricky snort at that knowing all living beings needed sleep to function whether or not they were master thieves who also happened to be a father seeing Constantine clutch his head mamimg Sneaker worry.

"He just has a headache because he hadn't been sleeping very well, which is proof he needs an nap." Ricky said making Sneaker underdtand that this was one of the days where her dad needed an nap seeing him zone off but she threw milk on him to wake him up chuckling but Constantine grinned at his little thief knowing she was trying to help.

"Uh-oh school bus, gotta go!" Sneaker said grabbing her stuff and leaving making Constantine chuckle yawning but seeing a whole lot of jewels everywhere making him excited unaware he was imagining it because he was so tired jumping into them unaware the jewels were actually the couch with Ricky on it .

"Oi what's the big idea mate?" Ricky said stunned realising Constantine had been seeing things because he needed sleep, lots of it but he didn't mind being on Ricky's lap because it was actually kind of nice...

Ricky then heard gentle snores realising Constantine had finally hit the wall and asleep making him happy knowing he would probably sleep for a while plus Ricky had been talking to Kermit on Skype before Constantine had dive bombed the couch knowing Sneaker would find that hilarious later but he had errands to run so was carrying a sleeping Constantine to his room tucking him in, putting a certain stuffed turtle that Constantine slept with beside him, leaving.

Later that week, around Saturday, Constantine began to stir yawning and stretching unaware he had been asleep for the last few days but felt better getting out of bed going to the bathroom since he hadn't went in a while making Sneaker very happy because she had been wanting him to wake up so they could have fun hugging him.

"Hey sweetie, how long was I asleep for?" Constantine asked.

"A few days, give or take but it's Saturday now." Sneaker to,d him seeing him do a spit take.

"Woah I was asleep all that time, no wonder I feel like I can heist again." Constantine said as ideas swam through his mind knowing they hadn't caused mischief on Kermit or Tne weirdos in a while chuckling seeing Sneaker get the firecrackers.

Things were good again, in Constantine's world.
