It was bedtime. I always hated bedtime, I would have much rather stayed up with Chris the whole day. Chris had tucked me into bed.
"Goodnight marshmallow" He whispered, as he kissed my forehead.
"Goodnight" I replied yawning. I was quite tired, and I still didn't want Chris to leave, but I didn't have the energy to stop him. What could I do?
---------------------------------
Chris' POV
I was getting into my own bed, careful to be quiet, as Louise was probably fast asleep by now. I got into the bed, the sheets cold against my skin. Closing my eyes, I began to drift off into a peaceful sleep, until I heard footsteps at my door.
"Daddy" A small voice came from the darkness.
"Can I sleep in your bed?"
I turned on the lamp near my bed and motioned for Louise to come in.
"What's up?" I questioned, worried that she had a nightmare, or felt unwell
"I felt lonely." Louise replied quietly, clearly tired. I moved to make space for her as she began to get comfortable in the bed. I watched as her small frame rose up and down with each breath she took, and as tiredness consumed her, she quickly began to fall asleep.
"Sleep tight" I whispered, before I turned around and also fell into a peaceful sleep .
