Welcome to Gaia! ::

When Heidi awoke she was glad it wasn't because of the snores she was hearing, they were more tolerable right now than the morning before. But it did take her a minute to remember where she was. Right, right. Tuck's bed...again. Heh. She blinked and just watched him, not minding one bit that she was being squished to his side. Heidi simply cuddled close and rest her head against his chest, closing her eyes.

...Why did she feel skin? Hadn't he been wearing a shirt? Yeah, he had. A green one. Right.

Where did his shirt go?

She lifted her head enough to make sure Tuck was sleeping, trying not to fidget enough to wake him right off the bat. He was sleeping, he said he didn't sleep well, she didn't want to wake him. Instead she settled down again with her head on his chest, just watching Tuck sleep with a little smile. At least he didn't sound like an angry bear monster today.

Oops. Did she do that?

Heidi smiled anyway. "Morning. Sleep okay?" She hoped so! He was snoring again, that had to mean something. Heidi folded her arms across Tuck's chest and rest her head atop of them, humming thoughtfully. This was nice. The awkwardness of the night before was finally gone. She felt better.

Kinda was better than not at all! Progress, he was making progress. "How come you have trouble sleeping?" She hoped it wasn't too personal of a question but it did worry her when Tuck had explained his usual sleep routine. He didn't sleep enough, that just wasn't right.

Her content little look narrowed into a suspicious squinty-eyed stare when Tuck said she snored. "I was about to ask for a kiss but you just blew it, Rumbleroar."

Was she teasing?

Proooooobably.

"Oh," was all she said to that. Just a simple little oh. He didn't want to talk about it. Understood, understandable. Nightmares were enough to keep a person awake, it was a legit thing. She wouldn't push it.

Besides, the look in his eyes had her feeling worried. "..What are you doing.." Heidi quickly sat up when she felt Tuck moving underneath her, eyeing him suspiciously again. "Yeah, well..maybe I was just being a gentleman and letting the lady make the first move."

Yeah...that was totally what she was doing. Totally.

Whaaaat was he doing...

Heidi giggled. "You're so weird." She moved to sit on her knees, stopping when he told her she was in charge. Oh..right. She was in charge of any, uh, inti--no. She was in charge of kissing.

And so she moved to sit at the foot of the bed, putting a hand on his chest in an effort to stop him. "That's not how gravity works, Tuck," Heidi scolded him mildly before leaning down for the kiss they were talking about.

There was a brief moment where Heidi actually tensed before she relaxed again, holding the kiss long enough to enjoy the feeling of his lips against hers before she lifted her head away. Heidi giggled helplessly and flopped down beside Tuck, not moving her hand from under his. She nuzzled her face against his cheek with a huge smile, curling up beside him. "Good morning," Heidi repeated without thinking, realizing right after what she'd done and snorting. Stupid. She lifted her head to give him one more quick kiss before she sat up, her hand still clasped by his.

"Why were you sliding down the bed?"

..Oh, right. Yes, don't roll over her. Heidi was appreciative of his decision now. "You'd probably crush me, and that'd suck." She put her head on his shoulder, drumming her fingers on his chest while his hand still held hers there. "But I did want a kiss. And maybe I want another one." Heidi pouted her lips and moved closer, kissing the corner of his mouth.

"Mmmm..no. I'm kicking yours," Heidi corrected him haughtily before she moved in for another kiss, attempting something more like the kisses he had been giving her before they'd gone to bed. Only one, too many would just uh...raise problems.

Right.
