Clorica x Doug, 8: cuddles if you can!! Sorry to bother you!!
I’m here for the cuddles!! <3
“Doug… come to bed…”
Clorica opened an eye, peeking at Doug’s back from beneath her mountain of covers.Â
Doug cursed, shoving once again in vain at the window in their bedroom that had been stuck open since that morning.
“I can’t get it,” Doug huffed, “I don’t wanna freeze to death.”
“We won’t freeze to death. Just hold me. We’ll be warm.”
Their cheeks both reddened, but Doug sighed and gave up, replacing the scarves that had been stuck in the sill to keep the cold out. Then he padded back over to the bed and Clorica’s smile widened.
Doug returned a small smile and slid beneath the covers.
Clorica’s hands found him, and Doug pulled her close as her cheek came to rest atop his chest.
Clorica sighed happily, burrowing her face into his chest.
“See?” she murmured, grinning, “Perfect.”
Still, he relaxed, and they melted into each other, seeking each other’s warmth.
Soon the cold was all forgotten, and Clorica fell asleep on his chest, breathing quietly with her fingers curled into his pajama shirt.
Doug smiled, stifling a chuckle as to not wake her up, and closed his eyes to quickly follow her into a deep, warm sleep.
