The Snoozing Padawan
#1: Sleep Snuggles and Shared Habits
It was the Middle of the night. Hera She was on her way to bed when she decided to check on Kanan. They'd just rescued him a few days ago, and she wanted to make sure that he was okay. She walked to Kanan's room and opened the door.
When she walked in, she found Kanan laying on his back, mouth agape, and snoring softly. However, he wasn't alone. Hera was surprised to see that Ezra was sleeping beside him. The blue-haired teen was facing the wall. And he was breathing deeply.
"After everything that had happened in the last few days, he must've wanted to be as close to him as possible", thought Hera.
She couldn't blame the teen, though. She knew how close two of them were.
She decided to watch them for a while.
After a few minutes, both of them began to stir. Kanan stopped snoring, and Ezra rolled over. Then, Ezra moaned softly and rolled over. He mumbled something unintelligible and snuggled up to Kanan. Then, he wrapped his arm around him, hugging him tightly in his sleep. Kanan unconsciously wrapped his arm around Ezra. After a few minutes, the boy relaxed again. As he drifted back into a deep sleep, his mouth opened slightly.
Hera smiled at them. She was just about to leave the room, when she heard a soft sound.
"Snmmzz…"
Hera froze.
"What was that?", she wondered. She listened for a minute.
"Snmmz.."
Then, she realized that one of them was snoring.
It can't be Kanan", Hera thought. "His snores don't sound like that."
She turned around and looked at the two of them again. Then, she heard it again. This time, Ezra was the one who was snoring. The boy snored softly through his nose when he inhaled, and then he exhaled through his mouth.
Hera was surprised. Granted, she'd only seen the blue-haired teen sleep a few times since he'd joined the crew, but she'd never heard him snore before.
After a few minutes, Kanan began to snore again. Hera noticed that Kanan's snores were slightly louder than Ezra's. However, neither one of them was loud enough to disturb the other. In fact, both of them were sleeping so deeply that Hera doubted anything could wake them up at the moment.
"They have even more in common than I thought", Hera said to herself.
She smiled at them.
"Good night", Hera whispered.
Then, she left the room.
The End.
