Just Days

JN: This title is SO going to change... :) I'm just brain dead right now... Anyway, I stayed up late last night, and this is what came out. This is just a drabble series involving my favorite couple. They'll all connect, though I imagine that most of them will be able to stand alone. I don't plan on going anywhere with it; just adding to it endlessly.
It takes place a little while after they've been married, though I don't know how long yet. I didn't give them any kids becuase I don't think they'd have any while working for Preventer.
Title: Finding Sleep
Word Count: 150
Summary: Noin has trouble sleeping after an argument.
Noin awoke with a start sitting straight up, drenched in sweat and slightly trembling. The room was pitch black save for the sliver of light that peered through a crack in the tightly drawn curtains of the window.
Remembering the nightmare, she quickly turned to her left to check on her husband. Scooted on the other side of the bed, he was watching her with his ice blue eyes, back facing her.
He reached up to stroke her back, "Are you okay?"
The argument they'd taken to bed with them forgotten, she laid down and snuggled closer to him making him turn on his back. "You better hold me or neither of us will get any sleep tonight," she kissed his thinly-clad-in-cotton chest before laying her head in the crook of his arm.
He smiled gently and placed a kiss in her hair before they both drifted off to sleep.
