Okay so... I'm bored lol

Honestly just spent some time playing Overwatch with my friends and my girlfriend is passed out soooooo I ended up thinking up this and I hope you guys enjoy it! Much love, mates!

If there was one thing that Jim never gets enough of, it's sleep.

I slowly stroke at the boy's hair as I held a book Douxie told me to read some practice spells from in my opposite hand.

He never slept much on our way to Jersey. Though, that must have been to his altered form for the most part. Beyond that though, there was not a time in my life knowing Jim personally where he slept more than four hours a night. The most he slept in one sitting after becoming the trollhunter was a medically induced sleep and even that was only for six hours after I first found out about his title and his new world.

I stopped stroking his hair for a moment to flip the page within my book before my brain wandered off once more. My hand going back to combing through his hair as his head laid still within my lap.

I convinced him to take naps at times. But they were only for thirty minutes at the very most. He couldn't handle anything more than that.

I felt Jim shift a little under my hand so I glanced down to make sure he was comfortable. The tired boy, fresh from his final war, was curled up in a blanket on his mother's couch. His head was placed upon my thighs as his hands were hidden away under the blanket with the majority of him. He looked rather peaceful though. With his eyes shut gently but his breathing still indicating that he was wide awake.

Looks so soft for a warrior.

I couldn't help but smile at the thought as I continued to stroke his hair. The movements pulling a pleased little murmur from the tired trollhunter.

Though he is much more than just a warrior.

My smile only widened as I brought my eyes back to my book.

And a good warrior needs a readied team. This book is supposed to help me get there faster. Douxie has taught me a lot within the time we had in Camelot, but as he's off in New York trying to keep Nari safe and sound, he can't quite teach me as he had. He was able to gift me this the last time I saw him for lessons and he said reading and practicing the spells within it can help me be a better witch. It'll take time, for sure, but he said these should speed up the process. Jim needs me to be ready. Everyone needs me to be ready. We never know when the next battle will come and I want to be as helpful as I can be.

I looked back down to Jim as I suddenly noticed that he was silent and still for a bit there. My eyes were met though with a peacefully sleeping Jim who had a small smile tugging at the corner of his lips. His easy and steady breathing tickling my leg just a little through the thin leggings I was wearing.

But I'm sure we have a little bit of time. Not much, but a little.

I closed my book with both hands and placed it on the table before us. Making sure not to wake the sleeping boy in the process. Once the book was out of the way, I bent down and placed a small kiss to the side of Jim's head. An action which only caused the boy to nuzzle his cheek further into my lap.

And I'm more than glad to spend each and every second of it with him.

A short one today but I felt fluffy before heading off to bed and I wanted to share lol Might be a little bit of a mess, but I hope that's alright mates lol

See ya around, loves!
