"Is my doll off to bed?," He leaned to your doorframe. Turning to face him you smile, nodding as you pulled the blanket higher against your lap. It's this time of the night when Kanato would come over, checking up on you before you sleep. The purple haired came to do it enough to consider it his thing, and he realized he can't sleep without checking if you are. Better yet, he can't sleep before you do. He has to see you safe and sound first before he thinks of himself. You pat the space beside you, and instantly he went to you, sitting next to you and sliding between the sheets. Placing Teddy beside him and not in between you two, he placed a hand on your thigh. "Sing me a song," you whisper, laying your head on his shoulder. When he takes your hand in his and started singing, slumber took over you. His voice sounds so good as always, like a lullaby cradling you from your sleep. You noted you can listen to any other song, but nothing's simpler than Kanato's singing voice. You'd listen to it, listen to him until you're ears give out. "Oyasuni," Kanato kissed your temple long after you're asleep, staying right by your side.
