That... a perfume…? a natural fragrance…? Whatever it was, my lips curled into a small scowl. My eyes peeled open with the coming of light, and she- Celeste groaned in my grip. Knowing the kindness I felt for her. Knowing that I wouldn't kick her from the bed - all because I had given her some measure of affection.
And how right she was.
"G'morning…" she mumbled. Her words still jumbled in the echo of sleep.
I responded with a warm smile.
"Yeah, g'morning"
I curled a finger over her hair, pet it back and brushed the curls and little knots out. Again and again until she finally woke fully.
"My- my~" her smirk was devious, almost sultry in nature. "Was sleeping with me so great~?"
