A/N: Awww! Thank you so much!! That seriously means a lot to me! And if anyone reading this has any suggestions for mental health imagines please don’t hesitate to ask!

You’re reading a book in Marcus’ bed, one leg draped over his, your head on his shoulder. He’s sketching in his sketch pad, the one he doesn’t really let anyone see, even you hadn’t seen the whole thing.

It’s getting close to lights out. His digital alarm clock reads 12:57 AM in red. You’ve seen the little yawns from him, the way his blinks have gotten slower and heavier.

You’ll have to head home soon, leave your boyfriend to get his beauty rest while you stay awake and stare at your ceiling per usual.

Marcus turns his head and presses his lips to your temple. He mumbles a sleepy “I love you.”

And you know you need to leave him. You turn your head and press your lips to his. “See you in the morning?”

He frowns, flips the sketchbook closed and leans to place it on his bedside table. He rubs an eye with his fist.

“You don’t have to go.”

“I know,” You respond, a smile touching your face. He’s adorable like this, like a puppy. “You need to sleep.”

He nods, agreeing that sleep is a good idea. “You don’t have to go.”

You kiss him again, and drag your fingers through his hair. “You won’t go to sleep if I’m here babe.”

He frowns at you, his bottom lip popping out. “I know you don’t sleep. Not that you don’t sleep well. But that you don’t sleep. I’ve seen it on your face, whenever you take your makeup off. I don’t know what’s keeping you up or why but I want to help. Talk to me.”

It’s a lot for someone who looks like they’ll pass out in the next couple of minutes.

“I have insomnia.” You offer.

He nods, putting together the pieces even though his brain is muddled. “That makes sense. Have you been prescribed anything? Does Melatonin help you? How can I help?”

“I’ve tried everything. Absolutely everything. But… I feel relaxed with you.”

“So stay with me tonight! I’ll play with your hair. We can leave a movie on in the background. You can wear my shirt. Anything you want.”

Your eyes drift to his shirt and he laughs and does the hot guy thing where he reaches for the back of his shirt and pulls it up and over his head. He hands it to you and you peel off your own shirt, shed your bra, and tug it on. His scent envelope you immediately.

You snuggle up closer to him. His arm goes back around your waist and he tugs you closer so your front is pressed against his side. You tilt your head up and situate your face into his neck.

“I’ll stay up as long as you need me too.”

You hum, “No you need your sleep.”

He hands you the remote and you immediately go to netflix and pick Criminal Minds. You flip to a random season and a random episode and then nudge your boyfriend. “Spencer gives you a run for your money.”

He scowls and flicks your arm. “JJ gives you a run for your money.”

You stick your tongue out at him and settle in for the intro. Marcus makes it through a whole episode before he drifts off. But something about him being close, your favorite show, his shirt, and possibly the meds, you’re starting to feel the drowsiness set in.

Halfway through the second episode Marcus wakes up and starts apologizing profusely and but you lull him back to sleep by running your nails across his scalp.
