[It's a rarity for Reeve to willingly get out of bed -- all the moreso for any bed Anita is in -- but he got up this morning to watch the sun rise. Just to be sure it would.
Returns to bed, settling the covers more firmly around Anita before curling up behind her and pressing a kiss to her shoulder.]
She doesn't bother to stifle a yawn as she snuggles back down under the covers. Hazy eyes blink open as she turns to lay on her back, grumbling at something pulling gently at her hair.
He adjusted himself so he was resting against her side, one arm tucked snugly around her hip. With his free hand he gently moved her hair where it wouldn't get caught under them, his lips finding hers in the semi darkness as they settled together.
"Mmmm, I'm not," she murmured softly, the question hanging between them as she pliantly leaned into the kiss. Her hand shifted to slide along his chest.
Anita wanted coffee and something to eat since dinner the night before had consisted of Lestat's conjob to get them both down to the Cafe, but she was still tired enough to relish the thought of warm covers and several more hours of blissful sleep.
Still really half-dozing, her lips curled into a slow smile as he leaned in, returning the kiss with subdued enthusiasm. She let it deepen slowly, fingers stroking his skin just as gradually.
"... sleep is a good thing. So's waking up like this."
He kept trying to tell her to go back to sleep, but how could she? The man she loved was curled up close to her, telling her he loved her and kissing her and, even in her half aware daze, she wanted nothing more than to stay right where she was, sleep or no.
She met him halfway, hands moving to slide along his shoulders.
Honestly, sleep was starting to slide away from him, now. He nuzzled into her neck, his skin prickling under the touch of her hands.
He pressed in against her, gently coaxing her lips apart so he could deepen the kiss. His fingers worked into her hair again and tugged gently at the strands as he stroked over her shoulders and neck.
She was rapidly waking up more with each moment he touched her, lips parting under his gentle guidance as her hands settled on his hips. She tugged a little in silent invitation, wanting him as close as possible.
He pressed in against her, tightening his arms around her hips to pull her closer.
He wanted her badly, but it was getting lost as he relished just having her in his arms, lying with him. He nuzzled in, trailing kisses over her cheeks and throat.
She tipped her head a little, shifting against him with a soft murmur. As much as she wanted him, she was content to be pressed close to him. The day before, she wasn't sure she'd ever be able to be like this with him again.
He leaned up, kissing her again. His hands continued their exploration of her body, pushing the hem of her shirt up so he could trace over her stomach with his finger tips.
She was beautiful. He could never forget it, but it washed over him more every time he saw her. "I love you."
Again, she wriggled, laughing breathlessly as she took a playful swat at the offending hand. Nose crinkled with laughter, she looked up at him, letting the smile soften.
Have one sleepy Anita

Have one laughing Reeve.

Worry about it in a few more hours.
Anita says no laughing at her.
Date: 2009-02-10 08:42 pm (UTC)"I'm awake now."
He'd never!!
Date: 2009-02-10 11:31 pm (UTC)He adjusted himself so he was resting against her side, one arm tucked snugly around her hip. With his free hand he gently moved her hair where it wouldn't get caught under them, his lips finding hers in the semi darkness as they settled together.
Riiiight.
Date: 2009-02-10 11:38 pm (UTC)Oh come on, look at this face!
Date: 2009-02-10 11:41 pm (UTC)"You're not. You're looking forward to snuggling down and dozing off for another several hours." His lips brushed against her skin when he spoke.
It's a cute face, but it's a SNEAKY face!
Date: 2009-02-10 11:50 pm (UTC)Hmm. Coffee or sleep?
"And how do you know this, hmmm?"
Surely you're mistaken. He's the soul of honesty!
Date: 2009-02-11 12:03 am (UTC)Of course, no one told him there might be coffee.
He leaned in for another gentle kiss, threading his fingers into her hair gently.
No, I do believe I'm sure it's him!
Date: 2009-02-11 12:08 am (UTC)"... sleep is a good thing. So's waking up like this."
It can't be true!
Date: 2009-02-11 12:26 am (UTC)"I definitely agree, on both counts." His hand moves down her hip, caressing gently. He was looking forward to many more mornings like this.
It is!
Date: 2009-02-11 12:39 am (UTC)"... I really like the bed. Nice and comfy."
It is!
Date: 2009-02-11 12:46 am (UTC)He traced over her tummy gently, gently tugging her against him.
"Glad you approve."
