Arthur blinked before opening his eyes and looking at the window. The sunlight fell on his face.
Not able to withstand the light, he squinted his eyes. 'Is it 10 o'clock already? I slept too long,' he thought.
Without moving, he looked down at his chest. Someone was soundly sleeping cuddling to his chest. She was breathing softly.
Her silver hair spread all over her back and his chest. Her long eyelashes hid away the dark circles under her eyes. Her lips were dry and swollen.
He caressed her smooth back under the comforter for a long time. However, she didn't even blink.
As he promised, they were playing till the sun was up. Later, he teleported to the bed and then cleaned their bodies.
Veronica was so tired that she fell asleep right when her back touched the soft mattress.
'I don't feel like getting out of the bed,' Arthur thought. He fondly smiled at the sleeping beauty and stroked her back.
