Hellena woke up too early for her taste. For once she had slept through the night completely at peace. She felt an arm wrapped over her waist, pulling her against a firm, warm entity. Her husband lay quietly behind her. She couldn't tell if he was awake or not.
Rubbing the sleep from her yes she reached out and grabbed her phone. It was about eight in the morning. She opened the phone and Sherlock shifted behind her. The arm around her waist tightened and brought her even closer into his chest. She felt cool lips on the back of her neck, sending shivers down her spine. "Sherlock, what's Lestrade's number? I want to call and see if I can get my job there back." She asked. She felt a rumble in his chest and his hand lazily removed the phone from her hand before gently tossing it across the room Hellena sighed. "That was rude." She rolled over to look at Sherlock. His eyes were half open.
"Mycroft and Lestrade are already doing the necessary paper work. You can go back to work when John clears you." Sherlock all but mumbled before kissing her gently. Hellena accepted the kiss and relaxed into him. He gently rolled them so he was on top. He held himself above her, one leg between hers and both hands around her face.
He slowly released her lips and rested his head on hers. Hellena opened her eyes halfway and looked into her husband's eyes. She could feel his breath on her face, the heat of his body just close enough for her to feel. Her hands reached up to entangle themselves in his dark curls.
"I have missed you, Hellena." He breathed quietly. She smiled and brought him down for another deep kiss. Sherlock slowly lowered himself to press against her, gently pinning her on the bed. She hummed pleasantly. She loved the feel of her husband on top of her, the comfort of him being there, enveloping her in his warmth and strength, keeping her safe.
Hellena could feel herself beginning to drift back to sleep. "Sherlock." She mumbled into the kiss. His lips left hers and trailed along her jaw and then neck. He hummed in response. Hellena closed her eyes and relaxed even more with the kisses. She was falling asleep.
"You need to make me coffee if you want me awake." She said quietly. Sherlock smiled into her neck and one hand traveled to her waist. The other wrapped around her and brought her closer. "Sherlock." She said in a warning tone. She needed coffee if she wAs going to stay awake. He sighed. "No."
He continued kissing her neck softly. "You need sleep." Hellena rolled her eyes. "I don't want sleep." Sherlock chuckled deeply, the rumbling noise was felt by Hellena. He lifted his head and smiled at her grumpy expression. His ,hand on his waist rested on her cheek, the thumb caressing cheek. He kissed her deeply. He worked expertly on her lips, trying to kiss her back into sleep. He could feel her begin to relax even further and moved back to her jaw and neck. Sherlock left a trail of kisses down her neck. He gently nipped at the skin right above where her pulse could be found. The hum of a response told him she was drifting back to sleep. He began to kiss and suck on the spot until a decently sized hockey had formed. He smirked at his work before kissing the spot.
Hellena had drifted back to sleep. She would be irked with him when she woke but she did need to rest. He briefly remembered the other times he had to kiss her to put her to sleep. It was rather odd. Most people would be woken up quickly but for Hellena, the kissing was relaxing and comforting. It was the best way to get her to sleep.
Sherlock placed a kiss on her forehead before climbing out of bed and beginning his day.
