This one shot is the product of two prompts: Henry and Elizabeth get into a pillow fight or tickle fight and Elizabeth and Henry share a pillow. The opening dialogue is not mine. It comes from episode 4.15.
"Oh Henry, you are in a hole. Just quit digging, would you? Elizabeth fluffed the pillow just laying her head down when Henry pulled her over to face him.
"Never. Goodnight beautiful." He kissed her. She grinned at him.
"Goodnight handsome." Rolling over, Elizabeth closed her eyes. Her thoughts immediately returned to how awkward Henry must have looked and she started giggling again."
"Not funny," he grumbled. For a second she thought he might be mad, but then the pillow landed square on her back. Clutching the offending pillow she rolled over.
"What the-" Thump.
"Pillow to the head. Direct hit!" Henry laughed.
"Oh, now it's on," she said swinging his pillow and getting him in the side where he stood next to the bed. He tugged the pillow she had, but she hung on. Now on her knees in the middle of the bed, she grabbed wildly for the pillow behind her where she'd been laying.
They both held tightly to the pillow that had now become the object of a tug o war. Henry swung the pillow in his free hand and Elizabeth ducked and pulled backwards. Henry wasn't ready for the change in momentum and stumbled forward, falling on Elizabeth and the pillow, blowing the seam on it shooting feathers across the room.
They both gigged uncontrollably. She whacked him on the back with her pillow. Henry just grinned devilishly. "You do realize you are in a very compromising position, right?"
The hairs on the back of her neck stood up as she lay there trapped under his weight awaiting his next move. He kissed her as he ran his hand along her torso. His touch was electrifying even through her pajamas. He slipped his hand between them. She held her breath.
Leaning into her ear, Henry whispered, "I want you to remember what happens when you tease me." He smiled as he kissed her ear and then he tickled her inner thigh causing Elizabeth to shriek and squirm under him. She squeezed her eyes shut and flailed her arms swinging the pillow she held, hitting his back with it repeatedly. At some point that pillow ruptured as well.
"Stop! I can't take it anymore!" Henry laughed heartily as he rolled off of her onto the bed.
Elizabeth opened her eyes, "Wow! This is a mess," she said. Feathers were still floating about the room. "I think we need to call it quits, since we only have one good pillow left.
Henry leaned in and kissed her cheek. "Truce," he murmured against her face.
Elizabeth smiled, "Truce," she said, turning so that their lips touched.
Sitting up. Henry helped Elizabeth off the bed and they shook out the covers, throwing most of the feathers on the floor. Henry tossed the remaining pillow against the headboard where it fell in the middle of the bed.
Elizabeth grinned at him as she crawled into bed and pulled at the covers. "Looks like we'll have to share."
Henry slipped in beside her. "If I had known this would be the result, I would've hit you with a pillow long ago." He rested his forehead against hers. "Goodnight beautiful."
Elizabeth leaned in and kissed him. Instinctively their hands joined between their chests and fingers interlocked. "Goodnight handsome."
