Title: Sleep Rating: PG Length: 191 words Competitor: Wyldon Round/Fight: 1/A Summary: Wyldon wakes in the dark. Part of the 'New Hope Proxy' drabble series.
---
It is still night when Wyldon wakes. His mind is groggy, a combination of grief, exhaustion, and too much wine. Still, it takes him only a moment to realise he isn't alone. The body next to him is warm, sleeping comortably in his arms. He closes his eyes and the memories come; Heart's death, the wine, the rain, the soft kisses, the heady pleasure. Opening his eyes, he looks closer, and he knows it is her, with her short cropped hair, long lashes, and soft skin. Her breath is warm against his chest and she makes a small sound of contentment when he wraps his arm around her again.
Wyldon knows he should wake her up and send her back to her rooms. But he can't bear to disturb her, telling himself that she needn't wake for awhile yet. Worse, he enjoys the feel of her against him, the warmth of her soft body as she sleeps in his arms. It doesn't take long for him to fall asleep again, despite the emotions warring within him. He knows that what he is doing is wrong, but it feels so very right.

<3 This is such a lovely accompaniment to Kel's similar wrong-but-right feelings after Heart's death. I love it!
