"How is your hair so soft," you whisper to Ellie, playing with her hair. She was laying down just beneath your chin and you were spooning her. "Because I use your hair products," she looks up and quietly says, blinking at you. "So thats were all my shampoo goes?" you giggle and continue playing with her hair, your other hand resting on her shoulder.

Her hand searches the bed for the tv remote, successfully finding it seconds later. "What should we watch?" she sleepily asks. "Anything you want," your other hand reaches for her hand, holding it in yours. After several minutes of searching, Ellie finds a film and begins to play it. "Are you tired baby?" you ask her, knowing exactly what she was going to say. "No, not at all," she replies, trying her hardest to suppress a yawn. You could only giggle and pull her closer.

"Come on, come lay on my chest," you suggest, patting your chest. She hums in agreement, crawling onto you, wrapping her arms around the back of your neck. "You smell good," she murmurs, falling asleep. "Well it's your sweater," you whisper back, cradling her even more.

After five minutes, all that could be heard from Ellie was her breathing and soft snores.

The film had ended and you shut off the tv. Ellie had woken up slightly and took a deep inhale. "Go back to sleep baby, I'll be here when you wake up," you whisper, playing with her hair again. Soon enough, she does. Not long after, you do too.
