The ABCs of Family

by a.touch.eclectic

A series of unconnected one-shots for each letter of the alphabet revolving around the growth and love of the Grant family I hope to see very soon. Most are set after season 11.

Getting warm on a cold night

Elizabeth turned over, and pulled the blanket up to her chin. The winter chill had sunk in, frosting the windows and creeping in through to her toes. She curled around herself tighter, attempting to capture all the warmth she could. The bed dipped as another occupant entered it. Then she felt impossible hotness at her back. She rolled towards it and pressed herself to the blessed warmth, just as she had every night he had to be out late. How he could be out in the cold and snow, and somehow still be so warm was a mystery she loved feeling every night. His arms came around her, taking her chill as he gave her warmth. He pressed a kiss to her hair and mumbled a greeting. But she didn't respond, she had already fallen back asleep.

I had originally planned to post every Wednesday and Saturday, hoping to finish this series before season 12 premiered. But with the January 5th premiere date, I will have to post more like every other day. So expect these fast and furious!
