Downtime

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

Enzo and AndrAIa were both tired from the game and the meeting with the system's command dot com. Fortunately, it was a decent system and the citizen's offered the game hoppers a place to sleep for the night. It wasn't fancy, but it had clean sheets and working utilities so they were more than happy.

AndrAIa had finished washing and entered the bedroom wearing Enzo's shirt. His shirt was a lot bigger on her than they used to be. He seemed to be constantly getting bigger. She shook her head; at the rate he was going he wasn't going to fit in his sleeves anymore.

She smiled when she noticed he was already asleep. He had been working too hard, was too hard on himself, that AndrAIa was grateful whenever he could catch some downtime. He was on his side facing toward the door. AndrAIa supposed that was as much downtime as he was going to allow himself to get. She slipped under the sheets next to him.

He jerked at the sudden change in pressure on the mattress. "It's okay; it's just me. Go back to sleep." He mumbled something in response and his body relaxed. AndrAIa ran her fingers through his hair to sooth but they slid over his ear, past his neck and onto his back. She was continually fascinated by the strong lines on him. She placed her cheek to his shoulder and felt his skin under lips as her fingers swept down his side and up his spine.

"I thought you wanted me to go back to sleep." AndrAIa paused and looked at him. His eyes were still closed but he had a little smile on his face.

She grinned and petted his arm. "Maybe I want you to go back to sleep so I can have my wicked way with your unconscious body."

Enzo rolled onto his back and grinned back. "I could pretend to be asleep, if you'd like."

AndrAIa swung a leg over his hips. "You're not that good of an actor, Sparky."

Enzo rather thought he was but declined to comment.
