Nights on the couch watching old re-runs, drinking beer, and eating ice cream were their favorite kind of nights. Tonight though, all they wanted to do was sleep. They definitely needed it. Today's case was beyond exhausting. Between explosions, car crashes, chasing the bad guys on foot, and blending in to the scenery going under cover, they could only do one thing now.

When they finally got home, both of them got ready for bed and crawled under the covers. She forgot how comfortable sleeping with him had become. She loved being close to him. It felt even better when they were so close that she could feel his body heat radiating on to her. Tonight she felt like she needed that.

He always slept facing her, that way if anything ever happened he would always have her in his sight. Not that looking at her was all that hard, even if her back was towards him. She was beautiful from every angle. He loved sleeping with her too (along with other things). He loved having his arms wrapped around her. So, that's precisely what he did.

They both fell asleep within minutes, both facing the some direction. They were practically on top of each other. His hand was still on her waist. She was still sleeping when she grabbed his hand and pulled it across her body, placing it just at her shoulder. She laced her fingers into his, and tucked their hands under her pillow. He snuggled up even closer to her. So close that their heads were both on her pillow. She didn't even wake up when he said,

"I love you Kens, goodnight."

About a minute later after he had fallen asleep, still half asleep she whispered

"Love you too", and tugged his arm tighter around her

Now we can sleep they both thought.
