Hey there my dearies! ^-^
This is one of four drabbles I have [had] stashed; the other three are still in edit-mode, which can take a while. Now, this piece was something small and insignificant, kind of a sketch-drawing version of writing. It was just an idea that came to mind and I thought I could make an itty bitty drabble out of it so that I can give you all something to munch on while you wait in my slowness land :3
Admittedly, this is a cutesy type piece, which happens to be common with me, and I am sorry for that. Buuuuuuuuut hey, I heart the adorable moments and they make for good short pieces. *shrugs*
Enjoy the eye noms!

Prompt Inspiration: 'try to close someone's eyes like a corpse when you're bored of talking to them.'
Titled: Sleepy Puppy
Kagome rolled her cheek against his silk covered chest, the warm haze of sleep floating around her. Inhaling peacefully, she mumbled to herself, "mmm, must have fallen asleep."
She remembered slipping into Sesshoumaru's lap, cuddling him a little, and subsequently distracting his work. Really, she wasn't intending to upset his reading, she simply wanted to snuggle and breathe him in for a bit. It soothed her, adding weight to already tired eyes. Rather than move her, the demon drew her in close, shifting his scroll to the side where it draped over her. The edges of her mouth twitched into a soft grin as she curled against him further.
Her eyes languidly drifting open and shut, rose petal lips matched the smile from her memories. Turning her gaze up, she saw he was still looking down on the scroll, which had remained loosely blanketing her side, and also seemed to be held equally so in his limp hands. His eyes were relatively opened, however, she could tell. Yes, he was asleep.
She smirked. Ages ago he had taught himself to rest with his eyes open, as he commonly travelled through dangerous and/or enemy territory. The trick kept intruders off and on their toes until he stirred at their impeding aura pressing in opposition to his own. It was an impressive skill, but could be a little unnerving, or, as in this case, somewhat humorous.
Easing free a contended sigh, she carefully raised her hand towards his blank features and brushed closed both magenta-striped eyelids, much as one would on a person who has just passed away.
After doing so, she returned to her dreamy state and huddled into his hold yet again, like fluffing up the pillows when you roll over mid-sleep. Tenderly, she felt him coil around her, his now relaxed face pressing on her raven-haired head.
Then, in but a few moments, sleep returned.
Author's Note:
Don't forget!
Curious what is going on with this collection and why chapters are so slow? Are things still going on? What is happening woman!? D:
Something you may not know is that I have ALWAYS had the statuses and information about any updates and/or progress of this 'series', or any of my stories. These updates are written on my profile in the top under the 'Status Updates:' section, much like a journal post, with the date of the post at the end so you know how recent the information is :3
