Cliff woke up to him spooning you
It was 7:00 am now
And he had no clue how
he happened to start spooning you
He saw his hand on your thigh,
He took it off quickly
Until he remembered,
You were sick last night
Your thighs and back ached
He wanted you to feel better

Oh.

He held you closer
He didn't actually want to let you go
This was the relationship he wanted with you
But he didn't know
He didn't know if you would say yes
Let alone date him
You were sick
And he felt bad for taking advantage of the situation
And snuggling you
But really
He wasn't doing it for personal benefit
He was trying to make you feel better
He was holding you to make you feel better
Cause you were sicker than a damn dog
He continued thinking, his head rambling as he
Stared at your sleeping figure in his arms
Until you stirred in your sleep.

"Cliff."

You said, suddenly

Cliff stopped thinking to hear what you needed
"Yeah?" He said quietly

No answer
You were sleep talking
You said his name in your sleep

"mm.."

Cliff looked at you, blank dead ass stare
He was shocked
And also confused
What could something like that mean?
He grabbed your waist and pulled you closer
Only to feel you back yourself into him further
He said in his normal voice,
which wouldn't wake you up usually,
you were a heavy sleeper
"Are you fuckin' jokin with me?"
He looked at your face
Not a part of it twitched
You were dead asleep.

Cliff pulled away from you curiously
Only to be surprised yet again
You whined his name in your sleep
And you rolled towards him

Cliff held you for the rest of that morning
That's what you wanted...hopefully
