No morning light greeting them and Saleairy readjusted Carth as he used her for a full body pillow. She was too short for him to use as a mattress pad and mumbled so as she shifted him and gasped for breath.
"What?" He asked, eyes bleary and a lopsided grin on his face.
"I said you're as convenient as sleeping with a crateful of Gizka." Saleiary said, kissing the bridge of his nose. She got up and stretched, her pajamas stretching up from her midriff. Carth's grin widened and she tossed a pillow at him.
"What are we doing today?" Carth asked.
"Griff is landing in a few hours. We should probably go with Mission so she doesn't start beating him up." Saleairy stripped to her underwear and donned new clothes, buttoning her shirt and sitting down.
"How did you find him?" Saleairy grinned as she finished adjusting her collar.
"We sent Daniel for him. He was on the smugglers moon a few planets over." Saleairy grinned.
"When did you send him out?" Carth asked.
"Sometime yesterday." Saleairy said.
"Fast tracker." Carth pouted.
"That's not the only fast aspect of that Shifter." Saleairy rolled her eyes and Carth laughed. "You should get dressed. Everyone else is up and wandering around."
"We don't really need to play hosts you know." Carth said, getting up and stalking over to her as she sat on an armchair.
"Oh? What else would we do?" She baited. He sat on her knees and kissed her, his whiskers tickling her until she pulled away, laughing.
"Apparently I should use the time to shave." Carth said, smiling.
"Maybe. I should go check on my new student and tell him that his father is a cheery morning person." She kissed him and laughed.
"Now I get to have another Jedi bashing me." Carth said, getting up and tossing his arms up as a sign of surrender. Saleairy followed him and peered into the bathroom as he got ready to shave.
"I'm nice to you. If I read your mind, I don't tell you." She smiled.
"Tell Dustil you're a morning person too." Carth said, starting to shave.
"Should I wait for you? There isn't much to do until breakfast." Saleairy asked, not looking at Carth.
"There's always things to do." He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her, smearing shaving cream on her. She pulled away and spit some of the foam out, coughing.
"Smooth." She laughed at Carth's flush and brushed her teeth to clear the soapy taste from her mouth. Carth finished shaving and washed his face.
"Could I try that again?" He asked.
"All right." Saleairy said.
"Ahem. There's always something to do." Carth wrapped his arms around her and kissed her, pressing her into the counter as he held her close.
"Second time is the charm." Saleairy mumbled as Carth kissed her neck.
"Don't say that." Carth kissed her and his tongue caressed hers. "Every time is the charm."
