Saim adjusted his eyesight before opening his eyes to the beautiful sight of his wife cuddled up against his chest, making a soft smile to appear on his lips. He noticed that the t-shirt was pulled down from her shoulder due to it being oversize, so he covered her up, placing a soft kiss on her forehead. As he turned around to check for the time, he was pulled back making him realise of her hold on him. He looked down to witness her clutching onto his t-shirt tightly. With a satisfied smile on his face, he wrapped his arm around her bringing her closer if it was even possible.

He gazed at her, noticing her face a little swollen, the reason all too well known to him. He caressed her cheek, pushing back her hairlocks making her move. She moved her face a little, before moving her face more into his warmth if it was even possible.

He sighed in relief before pecking her forehead several times, letting his lips linger onto her for some time. He could feel her nose brushing up against his clothing while her soft breaths onto his chest.

He heard the alarm to his fajr salah go off making him hurriedly put it off while he glanced at Yusra to see whether it had disturbed her in her sleep.

She stirred in his embrace moving a little to move away from him but Saim kept her steady in his arm until she had stopped trying and pulled her more into him. He adjusted the duvet onto her, pulling a little onto him too as a mean to keep her warm.

He gazed at her way, taking in her facial features, as though he was securing it in his memory when he heard a slight knock. Alert, knowing Yusra's habit he pulled her a little closer in an attempt to close her ear to not disturb her. It was hardly two knocks and the person had thought to not disturb them making him sigh in relief.

As he moved in her direction to adjust her head properly he felt slight wetness on his chest making him to move his head to notice her drool. He chuckled slightly moving his hand to wipe her mouth when she stirred again, rubbing her eye while he adored her as she opened her eyes.

Yusra took her own time to open her eyes, arching her body to remove the laziness that she felt when her eyes locked with his. She stared into his shiny black eyes before realization dawn upon her making her eyes go wide in astonishment. She blinked several times her eyes moving to her hand before she hurriedly let him go. She slightly pushed herself back in an attempt to create distance between them but failed as his one move made her stop.

"Stay still." He whispered while she stopped herself looking up at him, not sure of what she had heard, "Ah?" She questioned not knowing what she was supposed to do.

"5 minutes." He spoke calmly, his hand moving in her hair, while she glanced at him before closing her eyes.

"Yusra calm down. Control your heartbeats." Yusra whispered to herself biting onto her lips before she felt him letting free her lips making her open her eyes. As she dared to open her eyes, she found him with his eyes closed, a small smile lingering onto his lips instantly making her flush.

She was startled as the alarm went off making her to look for it and she found it on his side. Slowly and carefully she moved his hands escaping from his hold making her heave deeply. She turned off the alarm with herself slightly hovering over him, her hand still in the air to be back in her position when she lowered her eyes, to have a glance of him to only have his gaze fixed on her with amusement filled eyes. Her eyes widen at her act before she gave him a timid smile, noticing his lips curl up in a smirk, embarassed at the situation.
