drag me along.

the small boy slid into bed quietly and pulled his pink, fluffy blanket to him, nearly freezing to death from the temperature in the shared apartment. He quickly gave the other a small peck on the cheek to let him know that he was there with him and then closed his eyes and leaning his body gently a little bit more towards the Nastel for more comfort.

He fell asleep as he had before but this time with a little less fear and vulnerability to the dark, being that the whole reason he had gotten up in the first place was to simply turn on the night light on the other side of the room. But while doing so he grew much more afraid of the darkness and went out into the kitchen to get a glass of water and then ended up standing in there for quite a few more minutes than planned.

the other male that had been fast asleep woke up to the boy that was rested under his arm, his eyes were too tired to notice anything other than the fact that the small boy had moved from where he had been, remembering that once the boy goes to sleep he never moves throughout the night. he ignored the fact and kissed the boy's forehead and pulled him closer to him.

Nastel grew to acknowledge that now that he was awake that he probably wouldnt look forward to going back to sleep. so he held the pink-haired boy without a peep and didnt think another thought about it.

the older boy began to feel movement around him, so he opened his eyes, seeing that the smaller boy was getting up and that the sun had risen.

"baby, where ya going?" Nastel said in a tired, scratchy voice.

"...not tired no more." the boy replied about to pull his blanket to his body and stand from the bed.

"mmmn...baby, cant you cuddle though?" Nastel questioned, outstretching his arms so that the boy could come back and be in them.

"...hmmm...let me think about that." Ave, the younger boy, said raising his pointer finger to his chin gently to go with the cute thinking expression that came across his face.

"oh, please." Nastel said sarcastically and pulled the giggling boy to him playfully.

Ave moved his legs slowly in the sheets, happy from comfort. Nastel then kissed all over the squirmy boy's face, a few smirks appearing and disappearing on the other male's face as the Nastel made an effort towards making sure that that the boy's face was completey red by the time he stopped. Ave's face was burning red and so he hid it in the pillows, not to be seen, gaining more redness from embarassment.

"i'll get you for that..." Ave demanded and was then beginning to feel the light trickles of Nastel's finger tips making their way up the boy's shirt and begin tickle him. "noooo..." Ave whined, not being able to help but to laugh at the feeling.

Nastel stopped shortly, knowing that the boy didnt get much sleep and that he would be a little more grouchy. the smaller boy let his head fall down into the pillow behind him, yawning with his eyes starting to water.

"awww." Nastel said, not being able to control himself from saying it around the adorable boy.

"i cant help it..." Ave said defensively even though he had no reason.

Nastel laughed at the thought that Ave somehow thought that he was blaming him for yawning. "baby, i know that you didnt get much sleep last night, but you should have woken me up if you werent able to, i dont want for you to be up all by yourself like that..." Nastel said softly.

"im sorry, daddy...you just were so tired and peaceful." Ave said, looking down at his fingers that fiddled with the lace of his socks.

"you'll wake me up next time, correct?" Nastel questioned.

"yes, daddy." Ave nodded and Nastel gave the boy a kiss on the cheek.

"did you drink some water in the last thirty minutes?" Nastel asked, seeing the glass of water behind the boy on the night stand.

"no...that was from an hour ago...but i dont wanna."  ave pouted and crossed his arms, looking over his shoulder slightly at the glass of water.

"baby, you have to. there's no way around it...and then i need to take your blood pressure and you have therapy." Nastel said firmly, Ave was never disobedient but he could get very grouchy from always being awake and not getting enough sleep.

"...mk." Ave mumbled and Nastel handed him the glass and let Ave take it but left his hand on it just to guide the smaller boy because it was a big boy cup. Ave took a few large sips, gulping them down to get it over with for the one millionth time.

Ave rested his head on Nastel's chest after the water was set down and then he closed his eyes.

"i know it's no fun, baby." Nastel said to the tired boy and kissed his cheek gently.
