Prince Sakusa (SakuAtsu story)

Counting sheep (Chapter 7)

         Authors note : This chapter will be kind of short since I've been really busy recently. I will probably write more soon once things calm down for me. Anywho hope you enjoy the story.

Sakusa sighed, crossing his arms and staring at the ceiling. In all the years of his life, he had never slept on the floor, until today that is. When Atsumu asked him to stay, he had said yes without thinking, but now he was starting to regret that decision. Atsumu had offered to give Sakusa his bed and sleep on the floor, but though Sakusa was a cold person he would never steal a bed from someone who needed it more then him.
       Rolling over, he adjusted his pillow for the seven millionth time, and flopped back down on it. It still wasn't comfortable, but Sakusa hadn't expected it would be, he wasn't that lucky. But it was worth it,this way he got to be- no not be with,watch over. He was watching over Atsumu, he totally wasn't here just because he wanted to be near the blonde boy. No way.
        Draping his arm over his face, he tried to force the thought of sleep into his mind, but despite not having slept the previous night it still refused to come. Maybe he was suffering from insomnia, or something else that prevented sleep, but it definitely didn't have anything to do with the gentle snoring he could hear from his left. And even less to do with the angelic person who was making the soft sound. No he wasn't angelic, he was handsome but not angelic. No wait... That was still wrong, Atsumu was normal. Just someone who Sakusa wanted to help. Yep, that was totally all that Sakusa thought of him. He totally didn't like the boy. 
         Clicking his tounge at himself, Sakusa quickly scanned through his memories trying to remember how to get to sleep. He could listen to some soothing music, but wait he didn't want to wake Atsumu with the noise. He could try to close his eyes and think of happy memories until he dozed off, but no that would take to long and he would just end up lost in thought. Well that left only one thing for Sakusa to do. He wasn't five, but that was fine, what he was about to do wasn't just for children. Even though he told himself this, he still felt his cheeks heat up in shame with each sheep he counted as it jumped over the fence.
         His mother had once sat beside him while he did this, when he was about seven years old and having nightmares. He usually fell asleep when he reached twenty, but on bad nights he could make it much higher. He hadn't counted sheep in years, but he was desperate for some sleep, and desprate to get his mind off of.....something.
        " Twenty two, twenty three, twenty four" good he wasn't that high over his usual number yet. Still his mind remained restless.
     " Ninety seven, ninety eight, ninety nine" He had almost reached a hundred, his eyes were beginning to drift closed, but his mind still churned with questions that Sakusa didn't want to address.
       " one hundred and three, one hundred and four, one hundred and fii....." The numbers trailed off as Sakusa's mind began to enter sleep, but one last thought wandered through his tired mind before he drifted off to sleep. Maybe I really do like Atsumu.
