Random rays of light slanted through the blinds to line the top of the bed. He scrunched his eyes tighter against the intrusive sun and fought to sink back into dreams. He turned from the light and the scent of jasmine rose from the cloth beneath his cheek, making any thoughts of sleep disappear.

The first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was pink. Long pink hair stretched across not only her pillow but his too. It tickled his nose and its scent wrapped around his senses. It was an odd mix of her shampoo and that integral part that was pure Jinx. The closest thing to a name or description could only be "nirvana". When this scent surrounded him he knew he was home.

The next thing he saw was her smile, small lips curving up just a bit coquettishly in her sleep. Her small tongue slid along her bottom lip, leaving it temptingly kissable. It was a temptation he was too weak to resist.

Curved around her or her around him, Kid Flash brushed a soft kiss against those lips, smiling when she murmured and tried to pull him closer. She wore only the long-sleeved top to a pajama set, the bottom of which he wore. They'd moved in sleep, the top sheet and coverlet sliding down to their knees. The shirttails just barely reached her thighs when standing and in bed the entire shirt slid up high enough to bare her taut pale stomach. His pajama bottoms had slid down far enough to reveal the top of his hip bones, strikingly apparent because of his extreme lack of any body fat. Honestly, he had to eat at least 5000 calories just to avoid emaciation.

Normally when he and Jinx retired to bed, usually at about three a.m. after patrolling, they'd curl up "spoon-style", his front to her back. That's how they'd started out earlier this morning but during the morning hours she'd shifted so that now she faced him, her legs intertwined with his.

Kid Flash brushed his hands along her stomach, smiling to himself when it jumped and tensed under the gentle touch. She whispered in her sleep, her breath rushing over his neck as she slid sinuously against him. Long sinewy legs rubbed under the sheet, the sound echoing through the too-quiet room.

Again he brushed his thin harder lips against her luscious soft ones, tantalized by the rush the contact gave him. Slowly, like watching the sun rise, her eyes opened. Hot pink eyes quilted through with darker rose colors reflected his face back at him, tan skin with reddish stubble covering his cheeks and chin. Her eyes were out of focus and blinked lazily though her arms slipped quickly around his neck.

He nuzzled her cheek and wrapped her tighter in his arms. "Good morning, beautiful."

She smirked and closed her eyes again, resting her cheek on his shoulder with a sigh. "What time is it?"

Kid glanced at the clock over her shoulder. "Almost noon."

"Mmmmm," she hummed, blindly reaching for the covers.

He let her struggle like that and pressed kisses against her neck. "We should get up."

"Why?"

"There's a meeting at Titan Tower in an hour."

Jinx's back arched under his hand creeping under her shirt and up her bare back. "Don't want to."

She finally got a hold of the covers and started to pull them up over their heads.

"We should get up."

Jinx smiled against his lips and crawled on top of him before cuddling into a crook of his shoulder. "Let's sleep in."

"We shouldn't."

"Do you always do everything you should?" Her voice asked from under the covers, still slurred with sleep.

"Yes."

She lifted her head up, peering at him from the small opening the covers created as they bent around her. "I'll be a bad influence on you then."

He cradled her face and brushed his thumb down her cheek. "Maybe I'll be a good influence on you."

"Maybe we should sleep a little more."

"Maybe we should."
