Cole watching Nya

The breakfast table was quiet as the ninja sipped coffee and enjoyed the waffles, bacon, and eggs that Zane had whipped up. Everything tasted phenomenal, as per usual with Zane's cooking, and everyone was chewing contentedly. Cole, chewing on a piece of bacon, suddenly realized that it was past nine o' clock. Nya was usually up at eight, so he excused himself and went to check on her.

He walked over to her room, where the door was shut. Slowly, he grasped the brass handle and twisted it open so the gears wouldn't click as noisily. He peeked inside to find her sprawled out on her bed, black hair splashed on the pillow. Her body is hidden beneath a tidal wave of blankets. He walked over to her bed and kneeled next to her.

He can't help but let out a small giggle. There was a little bit of drool hanging out from the side of her mouth. Her eyes were closed, and her face looked so soft that he couldn't help but run his hands over her forehead. She looked like she was ten years old. There was a dreamy expression rooted on her face.

Cole muffled his laughter as she muttered something about kicking someone's ass. She shifted onto her back.

He studies her face again. He sees she has two tiny, practically non-existent freckles on the lower part of her right cheek.

"You're so cute," he whispered, "you're adorable. I love you so much."

Nya watching Cole

Nya grunted as she slipped out of bed, landing on the floor with a thud. Quietly, she walked down the hall, then turned into the ninja's room.

A chorus of snores fill the room. She walked to Cole's bed, then kneeled down next to him. Cole's snores were louder than the other ninja's. His were cuter than the other ones, Nha thought. Cole's were loud, and had a rhythm to them. Whenever he snored, his nose wrinkled up a bit. When he wasn't snoring, his mouth hangs open a little bit. He looked like a little baby. If you touch him, he might wake up and throw a tantrum.

His coal-black hair is tangled up in a jumbled mess. For some reason, he looks like he's pouting.

She smiled, gently placing a small, chaste kiss on the tip of his nose, which wrinkled up after I kissed him. I giggled, then I stand up and go outside, knowing the ninja will be up within the hour.
