Warnings: This one is pure fluff people. It's so sweet that it's liable to cause cavities. So if you can't stand that kind of stuff, don't read. Oh yeah, there's shonen-ai of the Syaoran+Eriol variety...and I think that's it for this one. See 'chapter' one for the whole list.
Disclaimer: I own nothing!...except the plot...Clamp owns everything else.
Time Frame: A year or two after Remembrance.
Perfection
It was six o'clock on a Sunday morning and Syaoran was lying in bed awake. He had woken up about a half an hour ago and had been unable to go back to sleep, so he was indulging in one of his favorite hobbies, Eriol watching. To Syaoran, his lover was beautiful in everything he did (a belief that Eriol often scoffed at), but when he was asleep, Eriol was absolutely breathtaking in Syaoran's opinion. He looked so peaceful and perfect when he was asleep, completely at rest, not bothered by the problems and nuisances of everyday life.
Currently, Eriol was curled up on his side, facing Syaoran. The sheets had slipped down to his waist, baring his bare upper body to Syaoran's wandering eyes. Syaoran lay facing Eriol, watching him. He didn't really understand why watching his boyfriend sleep could keep him occupied for hours, but it could. He smiled as Eriol shifted closer to him, mumbling something in his sleep. A few minutes later, sleepy blue eyes fluttered open and blinked at Syaoran. "Mmm... time is it?" Eriol murmured tiredly. "Ten after six," Syaoran replied softly, shifting so that he was lying on his back. He reached for Eriol, pulling his boyfriend down to lay against him. Eriol sighed contentedly, curling up against Syaoran.
They stayed like that for a few minutes, just lying together, Syaoran absently stroking Eriol's hair, before Eriol propped himself up on one arm so that he could look down at his lover. "Why are you up so early?" he asked. Syaoran shrugged, "Couldn't sleep." Eriol shook his head. "You were watching me again," he said knowingly. Syaoran nodded. "Mmhmm. I like watching you sleep." Eriol just shook his head. "Whatever makes you happy I suppose. I still think you're weird. I'm not that exciting to look." Syaoran shrugged again. "I beg to differ. I think you're very interesting to look at." Eriol smiled and leaned down so that his forehead was resting against Syaoran's. "Well, it's good to know that you don't think I'm boring," he murmured. Syaoran smirked. "You, boring? Never," he replied before pulling Eriol down for a kiss.
When the two broke apart a few minutes later, Syaoran pulled Eriol back down into his arms. "Love you," he said softly. Eriol smiled and snuggled closer. "I love you too," he replied. Syaoran kissed the top of Eriol's head. This, he decided as drifted back to sleep, is definitely perfection.
A/N: Yay! Another one. So, yeah...this was complete fluff...but I was in a fluffy mood. Hopefully it wasn't too bad. And that's it...it's 1:15 in the morning, I need to be in bed seeing as I've gotta be up at 6:30 for work...ugh...well as always, read and review please!
