Beshte x Bunga Oneshots

[1] - {Sleepy}

Bunga sighed heavily, rolling over in his den. It was a long day, and he was tired, but he just couldn't sleep. He rolled over on his back, sighing once again as he closed his eyes. He was so tired, but it felt like something was missing. Something was off. He reached a tender paw out, and realized what was wrong. He didn't feel the warmth of Beshte next to him. That's what was missing.

He sat up, looking around for the bigger hippo. He spotted him, whittling away at a tiny twig.
"Beshte? What are you doing?" Bunga questioned.

Beshte looked up, seeing the sleepiness on Bunga's face.
"Just whittling. You need something?"

Bunga couldn't form words, and all he could do was motion next to him. Beshte caught on, waddling towards the small honey badger. He flopped down next to him, wrapping himself around the tiny creature.

With that, Bunga's eyes grew heavy. As he gently ran a paw up and down Beshte's arm, he filled himself being lulled into a soft, deep, yet comforting sleep.
