••IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT••

Jordan tosses and turns restlessly in his sleep also hurting himself.
He whines and flinches turning to face Lowell's side and then drifts back to sleep.
Lowell is half asleep and is aware of what is happening around him.
He opens one eye and watches Jordan as he is peacefully asleep and soft snoring across his face few inches from him and he sighs sinking undercovers to lie on his back and face the wooden ceiling instead.

He has lost his sleep and he can think of a reason why, he will lose his only friend and he will be back to being alone all over again.
And that really sucks.
Even though that is what he wanted at first but now he doesn't want it to happen because he has grown closer to Jordan and he just doesn't want to go back to being a dull human that is feared and hated by everyone that he comes across..
He just wants his life to continue like this, with Jordan in the picture.

Jordan groans colliding his body on Lowell's side. He snuggles on Lowell's chest with a faint grunt and then flinches from pain but yet he remains sound asleep from being tired.

Lowell: Arg you stupid bastard, what the hell are you doing?... You will hurt yourself.

He grunts trying to push him off but Jordan's arms are tightly locked around him not giving him a chance to even move.
He huffs defeated and lets him be.
After all he could use the body warmth anyway and avoid hurting Jordan any longer since he has been hurt enough by his actions.

Jordan is fast asleep and seems to be having a silent nightmare judging by the tosses he is making hurting himself on the process.
Lowell brushes back Jordan's hair stroking it softly in between his fingers as Jordan rests on top of his chest slowly drifting back to sleep as if he weren't troubled in his sleep a moment ago.
Lowell smirks sniffing on him.

Lowell: Your hair smells like vanilla, you're one big neat freak that I have ever came across you know..
Lowell: You're fucking heavy too I can barely breathe dammit.

He sighs going quiet and then shrugs.
Lowell: This is pointless....

He covers Jordan's back and rests to sleep too continuing to stroke Jordan's hair and before he knew it, he was lights out asleep as well.
But as long as his friend is still on his side tonight, he can never be happier.
