i looked over my shoulder, glancing at the alarm clock which read 2:48 AM.

my eyes darted back to isak who was on the brim of falling asleep. he always tried to stay up late with me because he knew about my insomnia, but could never make it too late.

i was glad though- as sweet as the gesture was, i didn't want him staying up too late for me anyway, being all exhausted before school.

i decided that i'd use this time of me being fully energized and wide awake to help my boy get a good nights rest. i let out a soft sigh and softly pressed my lips to his forehead. his eyes were shut closed and he couldn't find the energy to speak, so instead, he just hummed happily.

"you know, you look so adorable right now." i said quietly in a soothing tone, admiring the features on his innocent looking face.

a subtle smile tugged at the corners of his lips and he scooted a bit closer to me, snuggling up against my chest and throwing his arm around me.

my hands found their way to his blonde locks, gently running my fingers through them in a comforting manner and when done with that, i caressed the soft flesh on his neck with my thumb.

light snores escaped isak's lips after a few minutes, clarifying that he had drifted off to a deep. every little sound he made when he was asleep caused me to smile and i hoped to never let go of the precious boy in my arms.

i traced his cupid bow with my thumb and wanted nothing more than to shower him in kisses, but i knew that would only wake him and i didn't want to do that.

as gently as possible, i leaned down so that our noses barely touched, giving him the softest eskimo kiss i could possibly give without waking him up.
