Movie Night

oOo

The movie droned on, the tv the only light source in the room. It was a documentary about the development of western medicine, Mamoru's choice for movie night. But neither of them were watching the movie. Instead, Usagi had fallen asleep, curled under his arm, wearing only one of his long sleeve shirts, snoring softly against his chest. And he was watching her sleep, the hint of a smile on his lips as his fingers trailed through strands of her gorgeous blonde hair.

He watched her eyelids flutter open before she blinked a few times, adorably dazed. She lifted her head just slightly, confusion written on her beautiful heart-shaped face as she tried her best to focus on the tv.

Her eyes widened as the realization that she'd fallen asleep dawned on her, and she tilted her chin to look up at him, her expression twisted with regret. "Mamo-chan!" she exclaimed regretfully. "The movie! I fell asleep!"

Mamoru chuckled softly, wrapping his arm around her waist. "It's okay, Usako."

She vehemently shook her head, hair cascading down her shoulder like a curtain of silk. "It's not, though! Tonight was your choice for movie night, and I fell asleep during your documentary… again!"

Mamoru smiled as he shook his head slowly. "Really, Usako. It's not a big deal. I'm just…"

"No," she interrupted, shoulders squaring with determination as she sat up a little more, still leaning mostly against him. His eyes shone with amusement as he kept his arm around her, pulling her close. "I'm really going to stay up this time. I'm going to see the whole movie." She turned her focus back onto the screen, staring hard, eyes narrowed, lips adorably puckered. He couldn't help the grin that slipped onto his lips as he tenderly kissed the top of her head.

He watched, amused, heart fluttering in his chest as, within minutes, her blinks became longer as her eyelids got heavier. She slowly sank back onto his chest, her hand curling up over his heart. He chuckled again, tightening his grip around her waist, hugging her snugly against him.

"It's okay, Usako," he whispered. "Go back to sleep."

She nodded, already snuggled back into him, her head lolling against his chest. He reached beside him and grabbed the remote to turn off the tv. With all the gentleness in the world, he carefully moved her, rearranging her, drawing her onto his lap. Then he stood, carefully balancing her in his arms, bridal style.

She nestled closer, and he heard a muttered, "sorry, Mamo-chan."

He smiled, kissing the crown of her head as he headed to their bedroom. "We'll try again tomorrow night, Usa."
