" I love you too " she whispered back
He kissed her forehead and hugged her close.
She nuzzled her head into his neck
He hummed happily, even though her breath tickled his neck slightly, and gently ran his fingers through her hair.
She hummed in content
He let his eyes close and cherished this moment.
She held him close
He smiled and kissed her forehead.
" i love you " she whispered
“I love you too, my dearest.” he whispered back with a smile.
She nuzzled close to him
He held her close and kissed her forehead.
A few days passed and Betty's alarm went off for work and she reached over to shut it off
Lysander stirred as the alarm reached his ears. He waited until Betty turned it off before rolling over and hugging her.
She turned her head to look over her shoulder at him
His eyes were still closed as he was currently not fully awake yet.
She gently tried to slip out of his grasp
He let out a soft moan as he slowly woke up.
"Sorry" sge whispered
”What time is it?” he asked softly, his voice a little hoarse.
" four thirty " she whispered back to him
He groaned again, finding that to be far too early. ”You have to leave so soon?”
"Yes Ly" she said
He sighed lightly and slowly loosened his hold. ”I’m not going to get to see you in the mornings, am I?”
"I work late too" she said
He let out a tired chuckle. “I’m a night owl, mon amour. I can stay awake till dawn if I wanted to.” he gently kissed her shoulder. ”I’m just not an early riser.”
" i see that" she said
He chuckled again and yawned as he rolled on to his back. ”Sorry, Betty. Habit from not having a sun ring for centuries.” he smiled sleepily at her.
She smiled and got out of bed
He sat up a little. ”Can I ask you a small favor before you leave?”
