2nd Chances

~{One year special}~

He woke up to the feeling of a certain someone laying on top of him.

His eyes slow to open as they were could immediately see the one who had taken the liberty to use him as a place to rest atop.

He internally couldn't even so much as groan as he saw Shinobu sprawled out all over him. His wife's sleeping habits never seemed to change, how she moved so much in her sleep was a mystery that alluded him to this day.

He couldn't really move either as he felt his right arm being held onto by someone.

His eyes shifted right to see a little figure covered mostly by blanket sleeping to his side.

Giyuu much in contrast to earlier faintly smiled as he looked to his beautiful little girl. Her small childlike arms were so cute with the way they could wrap around his.

He knew well that his daughter took after her mother in her sleeping routines and habits.

They were one in the same in that regard, although she was a bit cuter than her mother when she slept.

Giyuu stayed still as he took a few controlled breathes realizing his situation was hopeless.

They had moved into positions that made it impossible for him not to wake them if he tried to get out of bed.

He decided to take his slim chances as he very carefully and slowly tried to wiggle his way out of bed.

"'Mmmmmm."

No luck, it sounded like Shinobu had woken up.

Immediately he froze and tried to play it off like he was sleeping. His eyes closed once more as his heart rate jumped just the tiniest bit at the thought of being caught already.

He could feel her moving on top of him before he felt a finger tap his nose.

"My head's killing me, but even still, you can't fool me." She said in a whisper hardly loud enough to be heard with a finger lightly placed on the tip of her husband's nose.

He sighed quietly with his eyes shut before opening them to see her laying flat on her stomach on top of him.

Her clothes were a bit loose and hardly covering her body. Not that he hadn't seen all of it many times before, but still, it was a nice sight for a second before he refocused his attention.

"What gave it away?" He asked in the same whisper volume as her.

"Your eyes, you were closing them too hard." She said with a small muffled giggle.

"I give up." He conceded in defeat.

She crawled a little tiny bit further up him as she reached her arms further forward against the pillow and stretched almost like a cat.

"Good." She yawned before sitting up still being on top of him.

He didn't really move in response as she pressed her hands against his chest. Shinobu pulled back his clothes a bit to reveal more of his skin as she practically untied it allowing his full chest to be exposed.

A finger slide across his skin smoothly as it stopped just above his heart.

"And this, I could hear it get faster." She said with a small teasing smile.

He was completely beat, Giyuu hardly knew why he even tried to get out of this, his wife was too observant for him to simply get away unnoticed.

He let out an even smaller sigh as he took his left hand and brought it up wrap around her lower back.

"Whatever, go drink something, I let you do something you shouldn't have yesterday." He said as he stared up at her purple eyes.

She automatically knew what that meant, that was his code phrase for "you got drunk".
