Guardian Jackknife

His Responsibility

Having nothing to hide when they were already this close, Jack nussled his nose against Tasuku’s fluffy, sky blue curls, his own arms winding around his petite waist loosely. “Yeah... Tasuku’s scent is so.. gentle.” Humming sleepily, Jack was quickly lulled by the feel of Tasuku’s form against his own, losing more and more consciousness with each passing second. “Hmnm... wake m’up... later.. I've gotta cook... hmn..”

His Responsibility

Much to his own chagrin, Jack’s cheeks turned a sharp variant of pink, ashamed that he was so easily read. Of course he reveled in being close to Tasuku whenever he could, but to readily admit he enjoyed something like cuddling was...! He resisted a grumble and instead sucked back his pride. He was far too tired to argue... “Fine...” Politely removing his favorite blazer and setting it aside, all the while loosening his tie too, Jack sluggishly crawled onto the mattress beside his Buddy. Already he could feel his warmth radiating towards him, making his susceptibility to the wiles of sleep all the more prominent. “Is this... okay..?”

His Responsibility

Applying pressure to the bridge of his nose in attempt to ease his headache, it was far too difficult for Jack to deny his sleep depravity. “Nng... I know, I know, but I’ve been worried half to death.” Heaving out a big sigh, Jack sprawled out his torso across the foot of the bed, arms stretching across Tasuku’s blanketed lap. His head just fell short of reaching the other’s thigh, half burying his face into the soft duvet. Heavy lids drooped over Jack’s amber eyes, almost sheepishly peering up at his Buddy. “But now that you’re stabilized some, I guess it wouldn’t hurt to try and take it easy a bit..”
