One of the first times Ceylin realized that Ilgaz might be a little obsessed with a certain part of her body was the morning after their first kiss and well... first other things too. She remembers waking up on that little sofa bed in her office, feeling relaxed and pleasantly exhausted after the events of last night. She furiously blushed as the memories of what transpired between her and Ilgaz last night flooded her brain, suddenly feeling hot all over her body. Of course, some of that heat was coming from the man who made her see stars just hours before and who was currently sleeping peacefully beside her. Or judging by the unusual weight on her chest – was sleeping partially on top of her. Looking down, she could spot the dark curls that adorn the top of Ilgaz's head. Overcame by the urge, she freed one of her hands from the tangle of their limbs to hesitantly bury it in his hair. It was surprisingly soft to the touch, and she found herself running her fingers back and forth on his scalp, enjoying the feeling. She never thought that such a simple action could make her so giddy, but she shouldn't be so surprised, everything she feels around Ilgaz is stronger and more potent than anything she felt before. She knew it was because she's in love with him, but she preferred not to dwell on the "l" word too much or on the scary implications that go with it. She much more liked just living in the moment and seeing what life will bring them.

Stirring in his sleep, Ilgaz tightened his arms around her and cuddled even closer to his new "pillow", sighing with content as he did so. Now with his head turned like this, she could see his handsome face and she almost didn't recognize him with that completely relaxed and boyish look. He even had a small happy smile on his lips and her heart melted in her chest at the absolutely adorable sight.

The weight on her chest was a bit heavy but in that comforting kind of way. It was so cozy and peaceful to feel Ilgaz's warmth around her and she wanted to stay that way for as long as she could but to her disappointment woke up not long after.

"Hi," she said, suddenly feeling unusually shy.

"Hi," Ilgaz said back, and it took her some effort not to shiver at how deep and hoarse from sleep his voice sounded. He looked at her with so much love and happiness that she wanted to cry, she really couldn't believe how this incredibly sweet and perfect man could have fallen in love with her, and she was still afraid of messing all of this up, but she was grateful for him and his love anyway.

"We should get some curtains for those windows," Ilgaz mumbles after they both get rudely blinded by the rays of the morning sun. Trying to hide from the offending brightness he turns his head and buries it more firmly against her chest.

"Are you comfortable?" She chuckles with amusement. It seemed that Ilgaz really enjoyed his new "pillow".

"Mhm," Ilgaz mumbled, snuggling even closer and the movement made her giggle as his hair tickled her skin.

Only then Ilgaz must have understood where he was lying down. His head shot up, a mix of shyness and embarrassment evident on his blushing face. "I'm so sorry, I didn't want to crush you down like that, you must have been uncomfortable, I didn't know..." It was the first time she had seen Ilgaz rambling and although it was an adorable sight, she decided to help him out by covering his lips with her own in a soft kiss. It was not only effective in shutting him up and calming him down, but also was very pleasurable for them both.

"I don't mind, Ilgaz, in fact it's the opposite. I liked having you there, it felt so comforting and safe so you're welcome to use me as your personal pillow anytime you want." She smiled and gently pushed his head back towards her chest. Ilgaz still looked unconvinced, and it was only a matter of time before he would start to argue with her, but she found a great way to distract him. Her hand found its way back to the top of his head, soothingly stroking through his hair and the motion made Ilgaz sigh with contentment while his eyes flutter closed at the sensation.
