"When You Sleep"
His breathing was always even in sleep. The ragged breaths that he heard during the day long since gone, replaced by a soft sound that would tickle his ears as he lay down next to him, bare bodies barely touching under the sheets.
The moonlight danced over his face as Alfons let out a sigh, a smile forming on his features.
"Edward…"
The whisper was low enough to not be heard at all, but Ed was all ears, still wide awake and listening to every word:
"…Hand me that blueprint on the table…might…might find a way to fix….the engine design…"
"All right." Ed brought himself to whisper with a chuckle, lying back down and watching his lover's features still as he drifted into sleep.
