Lying on the couch in her lover's arms she was between the state of wakefulness and sleep. The fleece blanket wrapped around the both of them added to the heat that the fire emitted from the stone fireplace. Sighing in contentment she slowly opened her eyes, the flames reflecting in their azure depths. Outside the walls of her top floor apartment the snow blew and the wind howled but here, in the security of her boyfriend's arms she felt warm and safe. She turned her head to the side, flushed cheek pressing into his shoulder and she smiled as his thick fingertips trailed down her black curls before resting against her bare back.

The scene was sexy, two naked lovers basking in the warmth of their body heat, but it was also cozy with the thick blanket covering their forms and the light of the fire dancing on her bronzed skin and his light green. Sighing, she let her eyes droop once more, aware of the rattling windows but not caring as her bare chest pressed against the textured from battle plates of his front. Smiling once more as his fingers danced up her spine she pressed a kiss against his plastron before trailing her hand down his unmoving arm.

Fingertips brushed before connecting, five slim fingers wrapping around three thick. Once again his free hand found her curly, out of control hair and gave it a playful tug before his hand found her scalp and started the sensual massage that usually put her to sleep, something he started long ago to keep her nightmares away. Even now, her eyes grew heavier and she was just barely able to register that it was past three in the morning before her eyes finally closed.

"Be here when I wake?" she asked softly, almost timidly, fingers clenching against his.

"Always," he answered, lips caressing her temple right before the darkness overtook her in the safety of his arms.
