Author's Notes: Hey guys, some of you may know my story Army of One. These are just little one-shots that I would never be able to put in the actual story because they would just get in the way of plot development. So enjoy them if you love this pairing as much as I do. You have been warned, these will usually be very fluffy and romantic, so prepare to have diabetes when you are done reading them.

Blanket

Lightning snoozed on the couch in her apartment where she resided within the League. She had been summoned for three consecutive matches today. Each of them had been more strenuous than the last and she was beat.

When she had gotten back to her apartment the soldier had eyed her bedroom but then decided that the couch was much closer, so now there she laid halfway between blissful sleep and ever so slight consciousness. A dream was just beginning to form in her mind when a soft knock at the door pulled her back to reality. With a groan she sat up and stared at the door tiredly.

"Who is it?" She called weakly.

An all too familiar voice answered her, and it was one that she was happy to hear after the day she'd had. "Lightning? It's me."

"Come in Ashe. It's unlocked." Lightning called back before she flopped back onto the couch and attempted to blink away her weariness.

Quietly the door opened and the Frost Archer entered the room, brining with her the slightly chilling air that seemed to follow the woman everywhere. Lightning always figured that it was due to her innate frost affinity. But she had never questioned Ashe about it. She knew that the archer would explain it someday when a need arose.

Lightning watched through one half open eye as Ashe crossed the room to her side and sat on the coffee table next to the couch and smiled down at her.

"Did I come at a bad time? You look tired." Ashe commented on the obvious as she gently brushed her fingers through Lightning's bangs and out of her eyes.

A shake of her head was Lightning's answer as she reached out to take Ashe's free hand in her own and tried to tug the archer closer, earning her a soft chuckle from the other woman. "I can't exactly fit next to you." Ashe said as her smile broadened.

Lightning looked confused for a moment, and then realized what she meant. With a little effort the soldier turned onto her side and pressed herself up against the back of the couch. " There, all better." A tired smile followed her words as she patted the space next to her.

Instead of moving to the couch, the archer grinned wryly at her and stood up. " Hmm...you make a tempting offer Lightning. But...I could always just go in here..." Ashe walked toward the bedroom of the apartment while Lightning reached for her weakly and called half-heartedly for her to come back.

For only a moment the archer disappeared into the bedroom, but soon returned without her trademark cowl, gloves, and boots. In her arms was a bundled up blanket which she shook out on her way back to Lightning who watched her curiously. "Whats that for?"

Ashe answered by tossing the blanket over Lightning who groaned and flailed weakly until she was able to claw the blanket down so that her head was above it again. A light shake of her head moved her now messy bangs away from her face. She then looked up at Ashe who looked thoroughly amused.

"Much better." The archer said as she sat down on the couch and then slipped under the blanket and into Lightning's waiting arms.

Cuddling wasn't exactly something that Lightning was all that familiar with. But since she had been with Ashe she had grown to like it more and more. Ashe however seemed to take any opportunity that she got to snuggle up to Lightning when they were able to spend their nights together.

It always started out this way, with Ashe finding her comfortable spot in Lightning's arms with her head tucked under Lightning's chin. Despite Ashe's frost magic, the woman was surprisingly warm and now with the blanket over them, her originally just convenient napping spot was now a nice and cozy little space for the two of them.

After a while of simply enjoying each other's company and closeness Ashe looked up at Lightning who had nearly drifted off to sleep again. Soft lips pressed against hers and they instantly convinced her to try and stave off her exhaustion once again. As they kissed the archer's hands drifted up to unbuckle the pauldron from Lightning's shoulder and unceremoniously toss it in some unknown direction. Normally, Lightning might have cared about the miss use of her clothing, but when it came to Ashe, she rarely complained about anything.

Next came the buckle that held her uniform closed and that too was soon discarded to the floor. Now Ashe was free to let her hands roam over the soft skin of Lightning's body and send little shivers up her spine. Softly the archer trailed her fingers up Lightning's back until she came to the vest that the soldier still wore.

"Ashe...what are you doing?" Lightning questioned in a teasing voice.

"Whatever I want." Ashe replied with a smile as she nuzzled Lightning and then kissed her again so that she could unzip the vest without the soldier stopping her. As she pushed the fabric away Lightning made a feeble attempt at protesting.

"But...What do I get to do?" She asked in a mockly disappointed voice with a pouted lip as she pressed herself against the archer and adjusted them so that Lightning was above Ashe.

"Hmm...I'm sure I could think of something." A mischievous smile played on her lover's lips as she tugged Lightning down for a more intimate kiss.

Lightning took her opportunity to unlace the back of Ashe's black and gold battle dress. With a practiced hand she slipped it off of her, and mirrored the other woman's way of dealing with removed clothing. Which was to simply toss it somewhere to be found later. Leaving Ashe in only her silky black panties.

Ashe pulled away for only a moment so that she could move her lips to Lightning's neck while the soldier's hands explored her body. "You're beautiful, Ashe." Lightning whispered into her ear as she cupped the smaller woman's breasts in both hands, earning a tiny gasp from the archer and many more as her lips too began to travel south.

"You are too, Lightning." Ashe whispered back as her hands gently stopped her lover from kissing further down. Instead she pulled her back for a deep and loving kiss.

Slender fingers found their way into the soldier's fuescia colored hair and tangled themselves in it as Ashe pressed herself against Lightning. It was obvious that the archer wasn't going to let her stop kissing her lips any time soon, so she turned to her secondary plan of action.

Lightning broke their kiss and then quickly moved so that she could capture one of her lover's

nipples between her lips. Ashe's finger nails became like claws in her back as the archer let out a surprised gasp. An amused chuckle rumbled in the soldier's chest as she lightly flicked her tongue over Ashe's nipple and massaged the other between her fingers.

At first, Lightning had been surprised that Ashe was so fond of her breasts being touched or played with, but over time, this had become her favorite way to tease her lover. While her lips were busy kissing over every inch of delicate flesh that she could find reach, Lightning's hand found it's way between Ashe's legs.

To her disappointment, those silken panties were still in the way, so she quickly fixed that problem by tugging them down and off of her. Once they were gone, Lightning brushed the very tips of her fingers along Ashe's inner thigh. A happy sigh fell from the archer's lips as she parted her legs slightly, wrapping one around Lightning.

A little nibble on her ear brought Light's attention back to where it belonged, at least in Ashe's opinion, and they found themselves lost in another series of heart pounding kisses.

Ashe pulled away only to breath a heavy sigh of pleasure as Lightning brushed her fingers over the tender spots between her legs. Her sighs became soft moans when Lightning began to lightly stroke her fingers over Ashe's clit. No more than a feather light touch at first with each consecutive one a little more intimate than the last and she knew it was driving her girlfriend wild. The archer wrapped her arms around Lightning's shoulders as her breaths grew shorter and her heart began to beat out of control.

"Lightning...please..." Ashe breathed, her hips bucked up into her lover's hand while she clawed at the skin of her back.

The hand that had been playing with Ashe's breasts moved so that Lightning could wrap her arm around the snow haired woman. Her occupied hand continued to tease Ashe until she was convinced that the woman couldn't stand it anymore and she finally decided to give her what she wanted.

A soft moan filled Lightning's ears as she dipped two fingers into Ashe. Her rhythm started out slow and steady but built up until the whole apartment was filled with the sounds of the Queen's pleasure. Lightning drove her higher and higher with each stroke of her hand until she felt the leg that was wrapped around her begin to quiver, and Ashe's breaths became shaky and ragged.

Lightning couldn't help but let a throaty moan escape her lips as Ashe dragged her claw-like nails down her back, as her body tensed and shivered while she nearly screamed the soldier's name in the midst of her climax. Spurred on by Ashe's cries of pleasure, Lightning gave her more, pushing her over the edge on a wave of ecstacy.

The minutes wore on to what seemed like hours until Lightning had absolutely no idea how long she made love to Ashe that night until they finally laid in each other's arms, completely spent.

Ashe was almost completely wrapped around Lightning with her head once again tucked under the soldier's chin with a blissfully happy grin on her face that mirrored her lover's. She purred in satisfaction as Lightning played with her long white tresses.

Eventually, before Lightning finally did fall asleep that night she looked down at Ashe and kissed her softly on the lips. "I love you Ashe." She said before laying her head back on the pillow.

"I love you too Lightning." Ashe replied in a sweet voice as nuzzled her nose against Lightning's.

"Oh...and by the way Ashe. Thanks for the blanket."
