Garam laid down beside you with a quiet sigh.

It's after two am and she can't seem to fall asleep so she went downstairs to grab some water and watch some TV to pass the time, only to return to bed a few minutes later because she was missing you.

She's tired but no matter what she does, she can't get to sleep.

You both came up to bed around eleven and you fell asleep about an hour later while Garam tossed and turned endlessly.

She pulled the covers over her once more, hoping she could get some rest soon.

But as she laid there, she felt restless again.

She let out a groan as she turned onto her side, facing you.

She watched you sleep with a small smile on her face, happy that at least one of you was getting some good rest.

She reached over and gently brushed a strand of hair behind your ear.

Your eyelashes fluttered against your cheeks and you smiled in your sleep, still recognizing her soft and soothing touch.

She kept her hand on your cheek as she debated on what to do.

She didn't want to wake you.

You're resting so well and you deserve it after a busy day.

But Garam didn't know what else to do.

She wanted to hold you.

She wanted to feel your warmth and keep you close because she knew that might just help her get to sleep.

She was just about to wrap her arms around you when you rolled over on your stomach, your breath fanning against your pillowcase rather than against her skin.

She sighed and listened to you breathe softly as you slept.

"Baby?" She whispered.

You didn't stir at all.

"Y/N? My love?" She said as she brushed her hand across your back. "Are you awake?"

You just hummed, half asleep and half awake.

"Baby? Can you turn over, please?"

You lifted your head from your pillow with tired eyes and turned onto your side, facing her.

"What time is it?" You asked.

"Two-twenty am." She spoke. "I'm sorry I woke you up but I can't sleep. I was thinking we could cuddle but you turned onto your stomach so it was hard for me to do that."

"Oh, I'm sorry." You said. "Are you okay? Do you need anything?"

"No, baby, I'm good. I just want to hold you."

You cuddled up to her and smiled a little as she kissed your forehead and wrapped her arms around you.

"This is just what I needed." She said as she put her head on yours.

"I love you."

"I love you too." She whispered.

She was already comfortable and her mind was already more at ease now that she was able to hold you.

Her breathing started to slow, becoming even.

Her eyes started to feel heavy and she felt warm and content as she kept you close.

Finally, after a few minutes, she began to drift off to sleep with you in her embrace.

"Sleep tight, my love." You whispered.

"You too, baby." She said as she fell asleep, warm and cozy at last.
