I'm getting better at this! (I think)

These are becoming more and more random, I'm sorry. Oh well.

If there's something one of you wants me to write, or if you have a prompt you'd like me to add to this series, let me know in a review or pm. I will gladly take all the inspiration I can find.

Tender is the Night: Shinji's POV


I watched you sleep with a slightly amused expression. There was a softness in your features when you slept, a sort of peacefulness that seemed out of character for you. In my mind I compared the violent, every-day image of you to this sleeping beauty. It made me smirk.

I then shoved your body as a loud snore interrupted my contemplation.

"Wha's happenin…?" Orange hair tickled my arm as you lifted your head lethargically, looking up at me.

I bit back a grin. "Idiot, ya snore like a congested Hollow."

"A… a what?"

"Never mind." I turned my body to wrap my arms around yours, pressing your bare back to my chest.

"Mmmh…" Burying my face in your shoulder, I grinned and lightly kissed your skin.

"Are you serious? You wake me up to tell me I snore and then do this?"

I chuckle, slowly moving my mouth to your ear. "Got a problem with it?"

"Maybe I do…" you retorted, the annoyance in your voice weakened by the visible shiver wracking your spine.

Allowing my hand to wander up your chest, I moved to trail tender kisses down your spine.

"I… think y-you should stop now…" you whispered shakily.

I grinned, slowly releasing you and rolling back on my stomach.

"G'night, Ichigo."

"Wait... what?" you replied, still panting slightly.

"I said g'night."

You turned over to look at me. I saw the disappointment in your eyes and grinned.

"Ya seemed tired. Go back to snoring."


I didn't know where to stop it. So this is where it stops. Review? Comments?
