The storm crashed around them that morning, well, what was suppose to be morning but looked like night. Keaira pulled the covers over her head and sighed. She just wanted to sleep in. Five freakin' am. She growled at the alarm clock and curled up in a ball under the covers holding her teddy bear tight to her chest. Why couldn't she sleep? IT wasn't because Rei was supposedly sleeping in the room across the hall. She sighed. Yeah, so it was tempting to go get in bed with him...after all he knew how much she hated storms. She used to do that when he'd sleep over, if his parents were gone on a trip...or he'd even go as far as to sneak in through her window to keep her company. She smiled, how she'd missed those days....
"Hey...K..." She heard his voice as he walked in. Rei pulled the covers up and crawled in bed with Keaira, he held her close and they didn't speak for nearly an hour. She felt safe for some reason, something about him....
She shook the thought. No. She wasn't going to think about that...
"I remembered how much you hated storms growing up..." he kissed the top of her head and held her against his bare chest. Funny how she hadn't thought about him being in his boxers only, just about him being there.
"You're warm..." she said quietly as he just stroked her hair until they were both fast asleep.
