How you sleep

David:

You both fall asleep in each others arms. Often, you tell him stories of all your travels and adventures which lulls him into sleep. And once, he's asleep, he's asleep.
He's such a heavy sleeper, it's almost ridiculous. Paul and Marko have a bet going on for a while now where the first one to wake David up will win. They've tried everything already. Screaming into his ear, dragging him around the room, letting Marko's pidgeons loose – all that without success.
Unfortunately for you – sleeping next to David – you have to endure their pathetic attempts as well. Rarely, you get a good day's sleep without suddenly waking up to Paul and Marko randomly screaming in your room or throwing objects around.

Dwayne:

You usually sleep on his chest with him having an arm wrapped around your back, pulling you close to him and enjoying the heat you provided.
He would never admit it, but he can not fall asleep without you. Before he met you, he had no troubles just falling into his bed and closing his eyes, immediately dozing off. But ever since he knew how it felt to have you in his arms, he couldn't do that anymore. He got so used to falling asleep with you that he felt empty without having you by his side.
So when you announce that you're going to stay overnight with him, he's a little extra happy.

Paul:

You two also fall asleep in each others arms. He usually wraps his arms around you from behind, burying his face into your hair and pulling you close – often squeezing the air out of your lungs.
There was one problem though: once he falls asleep, there's no way of escaping his grip. Like at all.
Say goodbye to randomly turning around to sleep on your other side because Paul won't allow that.
Seriously, there is no way you can pry yourself out of his embrace. He'll just keep holding you close.
Fortunately, he usually wakes up before you, still, you have missed important appointments before due to being unable to free yourself from his arms.

Marko:

He usually draws in his sketchbook before he falls asleep. You'd sit next to him, reading a book or talking to him while he would be engrossed in his art.
Once, he'd grow tired, he'd put the book under his pillow (he swears that this keeps bad dreams away) and pull you close to him before slowly dazing off.
Unfortunately, Marko is a very light sleeper. And once he's awake, it would take him half an hour to a whole hour until he'd fall asleep again.
He randomly awakes at night, tossing and turning in the bed to find a more comfortable sleeping position. Then, he'd sigh deeply, wondering what he should do now until he would fall asleep again.
Sometimes, he just lays there, either staring at the ceiling or at your sleeping form, thinking about random stuff until he'd doze off again.
But sometimes, he gets these random energy bursts that almost forced him to stand up and do something. Most of the time, he'd just pull out his sketchbook and review his sketches – sometimes even starting new ones. Sometimes, he'd get up and look after his pidgeons, maybe teach them a new trick or two.
But sometimes, he'd be so full of energy that he'd start zooming around the room in his superhuman speed. Oh, how you hated that.
There was nothing worse for you than to wake up from a peaceful dream to him jumping on the bed and just taking turns around the room, sometimes even knocking things over behind him.

Michael:

Michael is insanely warm when he sleeps. Seriously, he's like a personal human oven.
During winter, that obviously comes in handy. He's like a heater right next to you and there's nothing better in the world than cuddling to that heater while it was ice cold and snowing outside.
But boy, is it unbearable during summer.
You usually throw the blankets to the ground, moving to the other side of the bed to get as far away from him as possible and sometimes not even that works.

Star:

Both of you move a lot while sleeping which had caused a few accidents happen before.
Usually, you fall asleep in a cuddling position. That doesn't last ten minutes though because one of you ends up moving, either rolling over the other to move to the other side, or turning away.
Soon, you two end up in a tangled mess of limps and clothes. Either you had your hand in her face, or she accidentally kicked you away – the possibilties were endless.
Waking up next to her is always an experience. There were times when she was lying on the wrong end of the bed, or times were you ended up sleeping completely on top of her to a point where she wasn't able to breathe anymore.
A few times, both of you had ended up falling on the floor.

Sam:

Sam dreams a lot when sleeping. And he has wild dreams. Often, he finds himself in the DC-Universe, having to fight alongside Superman or Batman – or as both of them – the amount of comics that he reads throughout the day definitely inspiring him.
Dreaming a lot means also talking a lot. Sam was a certified sleep-talker.
Often, you'd doze off into a peaceful slumber, only to get waken up by him mumbling something. Sometimes, he would speak full sentences, sometimes he would mumble random words. Either way, you'd get an insight on who he was fighting at the moment.

Edgar:

Edgar had a really big problem falling asleep. Usually, he lays down next to you and everything is fine for a while. You start to doze off into a peaceful slumber – but then he starts to move.
He tosses and turns, claiming that every sleeping position was uncomfortable. And then he starts to complain about every single thing possible. The room is too hot, the moon is too bright, the windows are creaking too loudly. He always talked to himself, trying to be quiet but you'd be fully awake by now.
Usually, sleeping over at his home ended up exactly one way: Ýou'd grab your blanket and pillow and walk downstairs to sleep on the couch. (He doesn't let you though. Ten minutes later, he runs downstairs to drag you back to his bed.)

Alan:

Alan Frog never takes a break from hunting vampires. Not even in his sleep. Even his dreams were filled with the monstrous creatures and he of course had to hunt them down.
You never get a full nights sleep with him by your side as you always end up getting hurt somehow.
You remember one night in particular: You were sleeping peacefully, your back towards him, until you woke up to him mumbling something. Then, his body tensed. „Take that, vampire!" He then suddenly exclaimed, his voice muffled by the pillow, and not even a second later you were shoved in the back, causing you to roll down the bed and onto the floor.
Your surprised gasp and the sound of the soft thud when you hit the ground caused Alan to wake up.
Confused, he looked around, not seeing you anywhere in the bed with him until a groan from the floor gave away your whereabouts.
