Kale
He awakes from yet another nightmare. He is panting and curled against the shivering body of his lover. He quickly raises his body tempurature, mentally chiding himself. He presses his mouth to his lover's ear, huskily whispering apologies. The other man makes a small noise in his sleep and cuddles closer, still fast asleep.
He smiles, and craddles his lover's body in his arms, trying to memorize evert detail, before the impending doom strikes. Here in this room, in this comfy bed, lying next to his lover, it is like he is in a coocoon, protected from the world. He feels safe, as if nothing matters but himself and his lover. He presses his face into his lover's chest, trying to fall asleep.
He gives up after only a few minutes. He looks up, into his lover's perfect, unguarded face, and feels a small genuine smile grow across his face. He leans up and gently, so not to wake the other man, kisses his lover's eyelids, then cheeks, and finally presses his mouth to his lover's in a gentle kiss.
The other man's eyes slowly flutter open. He hugs his lover close and hums a lullaby into his ear, lulling him back to sleep. He chuckles at the slight childish demenor of his partner before resting his head back on his partner's chest, listening to his heart. The rhythm lulls him into a dreamlike state. It is not quite sleep, but it is close enough.
He whispers, his husky voice shattering the glass-like silence, gracefully, like ripples in a pond...
"I'll be here forever. I love you, Kei..."
