After a short 16-hour nap, Abaddon opened his eyes to see a very unexpected sight.
Somehow, Bekka was awake before him, and running her fingers through his hair.
"I must have been more drained than I realized if even you've beaten me up."
Bekka went from caressing her husband tenderly to pulling on his ear. "You were cuter when you were asleep and weren't trying to pick on me needlessly."
Abaddon started to laugh, but that only made Bekka tug his ear harder.
Eventually, she relented when his hands suddenly traveled beneath the covers to more familiar territory.
"...Have you noticed that it takes much less stimulation to set you off since you ascended again?"
"I will not be blamed for this, since you are the ones who insist on sleeping naked."
"So we should cover up is what you're saying?"
"Don't put words in my mouth."
"What would you like me to put in your mouth?"
