Today is the third day in a row where Veneziano is hurriedly apologizing for his having to be busy. But at least it's the last one before he doesn't have to worry about it for a good few days. And America can see it in his eyes that his apologies are honest, and how tired the brunette really looks. Veneziano's amber eyes were not as bright as they normally were, and he could see the signs of not enough sleep as well.
So, later that evening once they are together again on the couch, getting settled in to watch a movie, America chooses to not bring up the couple of times he notices the brunet almost nod off. He knows first hand how busy and demanding their jobs can be. While getting the blanket they were to share situated, their eyes met and without a word needing to be said they moved to come closer together for a kiss. It was a simple, lingering one that left them with feelings of love and warmth in their hearts and after they have pulled away from one another, with some hesitance, Veneziano cuddled up to America, and the blond rested his arms around him and set the movie to play.
The movie isn't even half-way in when he notices that Veneziano has, and unsurprisingly, fallen asleep. His eyes are shut, breathing low and even and his body is completely relaxed against America's. Seeing as the other country could use the rest, he says nothing and makes no move to move or wake him. For the moment, America turns his attention back to the movie, the good parts just barely starting.
