PROMPT: Cuddles (naked)
RATING: PG 13, there are some heavy implications
DISCLAIMER: I don't own anything!
Terra isn't fully awake when she registers the warmth beside her.
She's confused at first, but the less awake part of her mind is telling her to enjoy it, to relax into it. So she does.
Then she thinks, 'Where did I fall asleep last night?'
It's a legitimate question; ever since she started sleeping with Slade, every night it was a question of who made the first move, where would they sneak away to, and so on...
And, in a moment of dismay, she realizes she's in his bed. Which means-
"Terra?"
She slowly opens her eyes, takes in his bare chest, which she has pressed her face against. Her right arm is tucked between her chest and his side, with her left arm casually draped across his abs.
She was cuddling up to him. And he was letting her? Terra tried to think; should she pull away and pretend to be asleep, should she sit up and try to play it cool-
"Terra, I know you're awake."
Plan B then.
She shifted her right arm to try to sit up, but Slade gently pulled her back down. Terra panicked very briefly before Slade murmurs, "It's fine, Terra." And he wraps one muscular arm around her, pulling her closer. "It's fine," he repeats. His rumbling voice rolls right through Terra, who relaxes as much as she can.
She settled back into her previous position, taking care not to rest her arm too low across his stomach as she was now all to cognizant of the fact that neither of them had gotten dressed since they-well. She blushed at the thought. She didn't know how long it was supposed to take for her to adjust to the idea of sleeping with Slade. She was barely comfortable being alone and naked, now here she was, exposed, to her mentor.
Her mind began to drift as she felt Slade stir slightly beside her. He did say it was fine, so it must be okay? Right? She allowed herself relax fully as Slade squeezes her left shoulder. "Good girl," he murmurs, and Terra lets herself drift back off to sleep.
