He was a heavy sleeper, often so worn out from whatever the day had entailed that he'd drift off in a matter of minutes. You were the opposite, laying awake next to him, mindlessly tracing your fingers over his arm as it lay across you, your mind racing with worries.
It was hard not to worry about Angel. He could look after himself, of course. You knew that, and you trusted that. But his life was dangerous, and he was often putting himself on the line in ways you couldn't, and didn't, want to imagine.

It wasn't often, however, that he fell asleep on the sofa. But a long day with the club left him exhausted and once you'd gotten a warm meal into him, sleep was sure to follow.

As much as you hated going to bed without him, you decided not to wake him.
Instead you took the blanket draped over the sofa and pulled it over him, making sure his tall frame was covered.
With a whisper of 'Goodnight' you pressed a kiss to his forehead before slinking out of the room.

It was well past midnight when your eyes fluttered open.
The glowing red numbers on your alarm clock glared at you and you rolled over.
You burrowed under the blankets and closed your eyes.
Something didn't feel right.
You slowly opened your eyes and peeked towards the door.

The dark figure loomed at the foot of your bed.
For a moment your heart stopped, and you froze as panic washed over you.
A scream rose in your throat but before you could make a sound, it spoke.

"Why you leave me there by myself?"

You blinked rapidly and sat up.

"Angel?! You gave me a fucking heart attack!"

As your eyes adjusted to the darkness of the room you noticed the blanket wrapped around him, his hair disheveled as he looked at you through hooded eyes.

With only a grunt in response he shuffled around the bed and slid under the sheets.
Leaning back into your pillows you wrapped your arms around him as Angel buried his head in your neck.

"I don't like sleeping without you," He mumbled into your skin. "I missed you mama"

You couldn't help the smile forming on your face and your kissed the top of his head.

"I know baby, I missed you too." You stroked his head softly. "Didn't miss your fucking snores though."
