D&D AT LINCOLN'S [OPEN]

[lincolnmiller]

"I'm coming," Lincoln called out, half swearing as he woke up at the sound of knocking-pounding- at the door. Wiping the drool from his mouth, he reached out to hit his alarm clock, and groaned when he saw the time. He'd slept through all his alarms which meant that was the guys, which meant he hadn't set anything up. He was the worst player in the world. He was the worst friend in the world.

Struggling to get his jeans on, he ran down the hall and opened the door.

"Hey, sorry slept through alarm. I know, I know. Guys, DM set up the board. Park, grab the snacks they are in the kitchen. Bowls where they usually are. Hey," Lincoln smiled at everyone, letting them all through even as the other guys wolf-whistled at his lack of shirt and bitched about having to set up. Smiling, he pulled his shirt on slowly before shutting the door. Tonight was going to be a good night. Once they got going. "I have beer."

Lincoln offered a beer to the nearest person, tugging his shirt down and covering up.


OOC: Open to anyone who is Lincoln's friend, likely to be involved in SC D&D team, Firefighters who might be invited to said D&D games night, and of course Roosevelt.

"Yeah. I've seen that face before. When kids fall asleep in class." She teased. Lee watched him smile at his phone and wondered who he was texting, considering the majority of his friends were in this room right now, but got distracted from that train of thought by the fight that broke out in the game. Straightening up a little, she rolled for her damage dealing and kicked the crap out of two would-be bandits.

She nodded along with his thoughts. "I think we'll be lucky to get gold out of this quest." She leaned in to whisper in his ear. "I think the GM was annoyed with us running through his scenario so quick and killing off his mobs too easily." Lee held out a fist for him to bump.

[lincolnmiller]

"I doubt you could put any of your kids to sleep," Lincoln murmured, turning into Lee's body a little and resting his chin and mouth on her her shoulder. Pressing his lips together in a little kiss motion against her shoulder, he sighed when it was her roll and sat straighter. Yawning, he faced the table and stretched out in his chair.

Rubbing his hand against Lee's side absent-mindedly, Lincoln leaned towards her as she sat closer to whisper in his ear. Smiling at her comment, he pressed his lips together wryly and nodded.

"He should be better prepared for us being so awesome," Lincoln agreed. His free hand reaching out to make a little fist for her to bump. "We should re-group, assess our situation, then consider investigating taverns next. For local gossip of course."

[thediceloveme]

"Don't kid yourself. I'm a school network admin. Everything about my job would put a kid to sleep." She smiled at the lazy little kiss on her shoulder. He was doubly adorable when he was exhausted because he was absently touchy-feely. He forgot about any boundaries. Lee thought she became a bit of a living teddy bear, not that she minded one little bit. She did the same to him on the long nights after one of her club activities when his place was closer and he let her crash in his guest room.

His hand was making idle circles on her side and she found herself swaying into the motion. "And beer." She said, toasting him with her bottle. "Taverns are really important resource gathering places." Across the table the thief started arguing with the cleric and the GM sighed tiredly. Lee grinned at Lincoln. "Do you think we're going to have to separate them?"

[lincolnmiller]

"I don't know about that, I bet half your kids are secretly in love with you." Lincoln replied, sitting up straighter as he rolled to attack with his cold iron greataxe. The GM was sighing, Lincoln was pretty sure he was going to have to physically separate Park from the others and tempers were fraying. "I think we're going to have to separate them or pizza break? Pizza break."

Lincoln cleared his throat, squeezing Lee's side a little before calling the rest of the group to attention. "Guys, why don't we take a pizza break?"

[thediceloveme]

"They're fifteen and they're boys. They're in love with anything with boob shaped lumps on their chests. Small mountain ranges in geography class turn them on." She said, watching him roll and beat his little group of bandits. Laughing she nodded. "Pizza break."

Standing and squeezing his shoulder as she passed, she grabbed her wallet from the overnight bag she'd dumped at door and came back, handing him a twenty. "I owe you for last time." She said as she bumped him with her hip getting into her seat. How did they end up practically on top of eachother?

[lincolnmiller]

"Well, they're- I'm not answering that without sounding like a jerk. Or Roosevelt," Lincoln began before pressing his lips together. Shaking his head to shake the thought of Lee's mountain range out of his head, Lincoln added to the stats sheets before leaning up to hand over his share of the money to Park who went to order.

Reaching up to touch Lee's hand, Lincoln bent over the table as he began to scribble away. Looking up as he felt her hands brush his, Lincoln went to catch her as she bumped into him. Knee brushing hers, he tugged her close as she climbed into her seat. Draping an arm around her, he sighed and took the money.

"You owe me nothing but I will take this gold to sacrifice to the 'Za gods." Lincoln replied like a dork. "I am wiped tonight, I am kind of hoping we're not at it all night. Not that I don't love going at it with you all night, I'm just... tired."

[thediceloveme]

"Don't sound like Roosevelt." Lee said, shuddering dramatically. "Roosevelt sounding like himself is more than enough."

The break in play seemed to be just what they needed. Lounging back in Lincolns arms, she grinned at his dorky joke, rapidly followed by a fierce blush that she was glad he couldn't see at the 'all night' comment. The beer was to blame for that. It always raised her temperature. She's not sure what she was going to blame for the vivid images now flitting randomly through her head, but she'd think of something. He did sound tired though and she craned to look up and back at him. "Night shift all week kicked your ass, huh? I think the guys want to tear through this though. I bet they're gone by like ten." Lee said, taking the hand that was draped over her shoulders and squeezing it.

[lincolnmiller]

"Hey, that's my bro in my bromance you're talking about. But I know, I'll be good and won't mention mountain ranges of any sizes." Lincoln replied, leaning back and tugging Lee in close as they lounged back together. Looking at her puzzled as he noticed the fierce blush on her cheeks, Lincoln's nose wrinkled. "Yes, it did. Just got to keep remembering that I love my job a lot."

Lincoln yawned. He could power through until the guys left and then he didn't mind staying up for a little longer to talk with Lee like always. Just a regular Friday night.

"We had a couple of fires during our sleep patterns so it was go time. Not the greatest, I'm all tense and tired." Lincoln murmured, threading his fingers through Lee before drawing his arm around her back and waist.

[thediceloveme]

Pressing her cold beer bottle against her cheek to cool the flush, Lee laughed. "You're so kind. Besides, I think yours are technically bigger than mine anyway." She teased, twisting to poke him in the pec.

Lee turned in his arms and looked at him concerned as he talked about his call outs. "You're okay though? No injuries?" She said, sitting up a little to look him over in case she'd missed something. He didn't generally get hurt at work, but there was a first time for everything and Lee took his health and well-being kinda personally.

[lincolnmiller]

"Then I think you need to get your eyes tested Lee, yours are-" Lincoln felt his cheeks flood with colour as his eyes went to her chest and then straight up to her eyes. Mock wincing when she poked him in his chest, he caught her hand before lifting her up and onto his lap. Where he could keep her hands perfectly captured and she couldn't poke him. "And don't worry about me, I'm fine. It's not the fire I'm ever worried about, it's the smoke, and I have a very good oxygen set up so I'm good. No need to worry or anything."

[thediceloveme]

For a big guy, Lincoln moved deceptively quickly and Lee suddenly found herself perched on his lap, blinking down at him while he talked earnestly about how she didn't have to worry. She nodded, freeing one of her hands to place it on his shoulder and keep herself upright.

"Okay." She said, huffing. "Fine. I won't worry." She kept up the silence for about ten seconds before she shook her head. "Nope, that's a lie. I'm totally still going to worry. But I promise to not be weird about it." She paused again and in the brief second the doorbell rang and the others crowded to get at the boxes of delicious smelling pizza. "Although if you ever get hurt I'm absolutely going to lose my mind and kill all humans." She added in a rush. "Oh hey! Gimme! Over here!" she called, taking one of the boxes and setting it on her knees. If he wanted her to move, he could do it easily so she just grinned at him and gave him an innocent face. "Pizza?"

[lincolnmiller]

Dropping his arm round her waist, Lincoln leaned back with Lee comfortably on his lap. Watching as the other guys squabbled over pizza in his kitchen, he raised his eyebrow as they gave Lincoln the usual roll eyes look that they did when Lee was around. He honestly had no idea what their problem was half the time.

"You know I'm more likely to have a car accident than to get injured at work, right? Or get eaten by a shark," Lincoln murmured as he watched her lose her own shit over the pizza brought in. "Well, I can't let that happen. What about the poor humans Lee, the poor humans."

Pressing his chin on her shoulder, his bottom lip pouted a little as she set it on her lap. "I would love some," Lincoln murmured in Lee's ear. Breath blowing against her neck.

[thediceloveme]

Lee opened the box and breathed in the smell of the fresh, hot pie, laden with meat and cheese. "The humans deserve it for letting you get hurt by being dumb and not watching their fire safety." She said, relinquishing her grip on his shoulder and shuffling in his lap to get comfy while she pulled a slice free. "And you're not allowed to get hit by a car or eaten by a shark either." She was about to take a bite when Lincolns chin hit her shoulder and his lips brushed her ear, warm breath ghosting over her shoulder and neck. The hair on her neck stood up and a slow shiver rolled through her, making her breath catch in her throat for a second. She turned to look at him, finding his pouty face inches from her own. "Jesus, Lincoln..." She laughed and offered the slice to him. "Just take it if it'll take that hangdog look off your face."

[lincolnmiller]

"This is true, there are some very dumb humans but there are also some unlucky humans who deserve to be helped out. And if I can save one person well, it's worth it." Lincoln murmured, breathing out as Lee squirmed about in his lap. Pressing his fingertips a little tightly against her side, he cleared his throat and subtly shifted so she was comfortable but not actively squirming anywhere. "So, duly noted. No cars or sharks."

Lincoln smiled as she started at his face so close to hers.

"Thanks Lee," Lincoln murmured, leaning forward and pressing his pouting lips against her cheek. Kissing her cheek gently even as he stole her pizza slice and sat back in his chair comfortably. Using one hand to eat, the other still wrapped around her keeping her close and steady. "You're the best. And I don't have a hangdog look."

[thediceloveme]

"God, you do so have a hangdog look. I'm pretty sure there's not a person on the planet that could withhold pizza in the face of that look." Lee said, taking a new slice of pizza and devouring it unselfconsciously.

Even the kitchen went quiet as people ate. Lee passed slices to Lincoln from the box on her lap and matched him slice for slice. She might be small but she ran marathons and she could put away as much as anyone when she was in the mood. And she was absolutely in the mood tonight.

Eventually the box was empty and Lee sighed happily, licking the grease off her fingers. "That was amazing." She said, eyes lidded. "I'm going to fall into a food coma and sleep for a week but it was absolutely worth it."

[lincolnmiller]

"Really? That's good to know, is it exclusive to pizza or can I take advantage of you at other times?" Lincoln asked, smiling as he watched Lee for a moment. Despite the pizza in his hand, he rested his head on her shoulder and breathed out slowly. Content for the moment to just watching her before he finally turned his head and began to eat.

"Same, if I wasn't feeling tired before..." Lincoln murmured yawning as his free hand slipped beneath an exposed bit of shirt. Fingertips rubbed against Lee's side as he rested his heavy head on her shoulder. Everyone seemed tired, sleepy, and ready to head home a lot sooner than he expected. Which suited Lincoln fine.

[thediceloveme]

"I know. I think we might have to put a pin in tonight. I don't have the brain for this." Lee said and leaned further in to his chest so that his head rolled deeper into the hollow of her throat and shoulder. He was drawing lazy patterns, rhythmic movements on the skin of her side and maybe another time she would have examined how intimate the touch was, but tonight she just couldn't give a crap, too comfortable and cosy to care. Her fingers found their way to the hair at the base of his head and started scratching there gently.

They must have stayed like that for a while because the next thing she knew there were murmurs of goodbye and she looked around to see the others gathering their things and waving their own sleepy goodbyes. Tonight had been ambitious after the weeks they'd all had. She waved back and then looked at Lincoln, smiling and pressing her lips to his hair.

"Hey Linc...the guys are leaving."

[lincolnmiller]

"Everyone gets a gold 'we tried' star," Lincoln murmured. She was right though none of them were really in the right frame of mind. Breath coming steady and even, his head fell forward until his nose and mouth were pressed intimately against Lee's neck. Groaning into Lee's ear as she scratched his head, he barely cracked an eye open as the guys left. "Bye guys, see you next week."

At the sound of the door shutting behind them, Lincoln's hand slipped further up Lee's side. "Bed or couch?" Lincoln murmured tiredly, holding Lee close for the moment.

[thediceloveme]

The groaning and the lips on her neck made Lee close her eyes and lick her lips, breathing out a contented sigh of her own. The way Lincolns hand moved up her side made Lee arch a little, curving her hip into it and pressing her free hand over his so it splayed out over her hip and waist. She slotted her fingers between his and just enjoyed the feeling of him all around her.

He murmured to her in that low voice, words vibrating against her skin and it took a minute for her to find her own voice to answer him. "Are you going to be able to last long enough to have a conversation on the couch?" She asked quietly. "Because I can't drag you to bed if you fall asleep there."

[lincolnmiller]

Lee arched into his hand, his fingers moulding against the slight curve of her hips before spreading out against her hip and waist. Letting out a soft huff of breath, Lincoln rubbed his stubble against her neck and took a deep breath in as she threaded their fingers together.

"Maybe, maybe not." Lincoln murmured honestly, yawning as he wrapped one arm beneath Lee's legs before making sure she was secure in his arms and standing. Glancing over at his bedroom and the spare room, Lincoln trudged over to the deep, L shaped couch. Lincoln sat before lying back on the couch and taking Lee with him. Until he was lying on his side, with Lee curled up in front of him. "If I fall asleep leave me here, if you fall asleep then I'll take you to bed. Deal?"

[thediceloveme]

The rough stubble against her neck made Lee gasp and that turned into a laugh as Lincoln manhandled her across to the couch. She had no intention of resisting him, following his lead until she was cocooned by his body, wrapped up in him.

"Deal." She said when he'd finished moving. She shuffled around and pulled his arm around her waist. A thought struck her and she craned to look at him. "Can I borrow a shirt? I think I actually forgot something to sleep in."

[lincolnmiller]

"Although it would be funny to see you try lifting me," Lincoln murmured smiling as she pulled his arm demandingly around her. Pressing against her back, he swallowed as he felt how she curved- fit against him as they stretched out. Ignoring, or at least trying to, when she shuffled about, Lincoln buried his face against her neck and nodded when she tried to turn to look at him. "Mmmm, sure. There should be something clean in my room just get it later, unless you wanted to change now?"

He didn't want her to but that was because he was kind of comfortable like this. He missed sleeping with women like this, sex was great and everything but he kind of just missed snuggling and holding someone.

[thediceloveme]

The thought of dragging him to his bed made her laugh. "You'd be asleep. You'd see nothing. I could bring in friends to move you just so you wouldn't know how I did it." She teased and reached up to scratch through his hair. He loved that and she knew it. Years of friendship and the slow growth of this odd intimacy they shared meant she knew what made him tick. And he knew her too.

"I'm comfy though. I'll grab the shirt later, thanks." Lee said, making a contented noise and closed her eyes. She wasn't going to sleep but she was enjoying this mutual physicality. Lee didn't date much. The last few times she'd tried it had ended badly. They could never understand the way she was with her computers, the way she devoted herself to a new game or to playing with her friends online or in person. She tried but she couldn't stop being who she was for the sake of someone else. Lincoln understood that and that's why she loved spending time with him.

[lincolnmiller]

"Maybe I have cameras in my apartment, you don't know." Lincoln murmured, letting out a soft groan into Lee's ear as he felt gentle fingers scratch his scalp and run through his hair. Hand pressing against the flat of her stomach, his thumb brushed against skin as he shifted a little against her. "Just no judging my art print choices when you go in. Or the state of my room."

It was pretty tidy. Lincoln was a pretty tidy kind of guy. All his furnishings were wood or leather, comfortable and worn. But Lee had never really been in to his room before. She hadn't seen the big bed or the Star Wars prints next to the Lord of the Rings ones. Or the piles of books stacked next to his bed. He didn't mind her seeing room, she just hadn't really before.

"Me too, comfy." Lincoln murmured, rubbing his jaw against Lee's neck. His hand slipping beneath her top just a little and pushing it up slightly as he settled against her. "You want me to stick a movie on? Or we can just stay like this?"

[thediceloveme]

"You're a neat freak." Lee said, smiling fondly and shifting with him as he rearranged himself. "It's one of the things I love about you. Makes me seem less of a weirdo. When I want to order my action figures by serial number."

The groan that escaped her when he rubbed his stubble into her neck wasn't quite obscene, but it was close. Of course the hand under her top wasn't helping, but the little flare of arousal was a distant thing. It was Lincoln. It wasn't hard to be aroused around him. Clearing her throat, she nodded, rubbing her cheek against his temple. "Do we have to move to get the movie? Because I set up the entertainment server last time I was here. I gave you a tablet to control it all and everything...Don't tell me you broke it already?"

[lincolnmiller]

"I am n- okay, I am. But I still think you should order them alphabetically or by series then alphabetically." Lincoln murmured, taking a breath in at the small noise she made when he rubbed his stubble against her neck. Rubbing against her again to see if she made the same noise, Lincoln shifted and pressed his hips against her ass as she rubbed her cheek against his temple.

"You don't have to move, her let me get it." Lincoln murmured, pressing up onto one arm and letting Lee fall gently back onto the couch. Stretching over the top of her, Lincoln grabbed the tablet before pulling it to them. Looking at Lee laying beneath him, Lincoln smiled down at her before resettling himself beside her. "Shall we watch Galaxy Quest? I haven't watched that in ages."

Her top had pulled up a little from where his hand had been, hesitating a moment he placed his hand back where it had been and snuggled up beside Lee. "Or you can pick, I don't mind." Lincoln murmured against Lee's ear, his lips brushing against her bottom earlobe.

[thediceloveme]

"I concede that ordering by series makes a little more se-..." She paused to bite of another groan as he nuzzled her again. "More sense." Lee finished on a sigh.

Her body was betraying her a little, more when she rolled to her back and he was hovering over her. She arched up under him a fraction before she caught the movement and relaxed back. He smiled down at her and she crooked one back at him while he settled next to her again.

"There's never an alternative when Galaxy Quest is on the table." She murmured, lifting the tablet she thumbed through the options absently until she found the movie and set it playing.

Lifting her legs, she hooked them over his thighs, levering them so he was curled closer around her. His voice against her ear was a purr of noise that made Lee feel warm all over. His hand was a warm weight on her belly and made the muscles jump as she covered it with her own.

"We watched this together like three months ago, you know." She said, stroking his arm idly. "Is that ages?"

[lincolnmiller]

Knee sliding between Lee's, he leaned into her body as she drew him closer. Pressing her close so that her back was pressed against his chest, he breathed in calmly and tried to ignore the way blood was being diverted elsewhere at their closeness, at the way she kept groaning in his arms like that. He didn't pull away though, just tried to make it less obvious that he was semi-hard.

Breathing out against her neck, he nodded at her question and let his jaw scratch against her neck. Smiling when she covered his hand, he sighed and tried not to yawn. Shivering a little when she lightly stroking his arm, his lips brushed her earlobe just a fraction.

"That's a lifetime for a film classic like this." Lincoln replied, watching as his tv began to play the movie. "Never give in, never surrender."

[thediceloveme]

"Fair point." She said and like the total dork she was, Lee made the salute from the movie.

She didn't even need to watch it. She knew every line. It was their go to movie when they were both exhausted and not up for concentrating, just letting it wash over them, the familiarity comforting.

Of course, now that she wasn't paying attention to the film, Lees mind was wandering. Lincoln was nuzzling closer, practically kissing her ear, his thigh between hers making her wonder idly what it'd be like to sleep like this with someone like this every night. That train of thought made her frown a little as she tried to fix an image of a man she'd like to do this with every night and her brain kept coming back to Lincoln.

The thought trailed off as he scratched his chin against the curve of her throat and made her huff a sleepy laugh. "You need a shave."

[lincolnmiller]

Yawning against Lee's skin, his fingertips rubbed in slow, absent-minded circles against her skin as the film started. Laughing tiredly in the same places as always, Lincoln mouthed the lines along with the actors as they watched it.

Inhaling the soft, feminine scent of Lee's hair, Lincoln dozed a little and buried his head against Lee's throat. Waking when she sleepily laughed at scratch of his beard against her skin.

"Sorry. You don't like it?" Lincoln asked, knee pressing higher between Lee's legs as he turned into her body to look at her. He hadn't been clean shaven in years but he probably normally kept it shorter or tidier than it was at the moment. He probably should trim in the morning if it bothered her though.

[thediceloveme]

As he leaned over to look at her, Lincolns knee shifted higher, a firm, warm pressure between her thighs that made her hips roll with the movement to accommodate him. She didn't feel trapped though, and she wasn't about to pull away at all, even if she thought maybe she should. Instead she stretched languidly into the couch, letting his weight anchor her.

Lee rolled her eyes at the look on his face. Even tired as he was, he still managed a pretty effective set of puppy dog eyes. She reached up and ran her fingers over his cheek lightly. "I like it a lot. I'm just concerned you're going to start a fire if you accidentally catch it on my shirt or something." She teased, smiling at him. "And that'd look bad, you being a fireman and everything."

[lincolnmiller]

He could feel the tops of his cheeks warm with heat as Lee shifted beneath him, her hips rolling against him until they were pressed close together. Taking an almost shaky breath in, he forced a tired smile onto his lips even as he knew soon she would probably noticed how tired and aroused he actually was.

Leaning into the hand at his cheek, he turned his head so that his mouth brushed a chaste kiss against her palm. Yawning, he smiled at her teases and laughed at the comment.

"I doubt my beard is going to start a shirt fire, if you're that worried though you could just take it off." Lincoln murmured, head dropping against the hollow of her neck sleepily. It only took a minute for him to realise how that sounded. "I didn't mean- not that- I'm shutting up. Ignore me, I'm tired."

[thediceloveme]

Lee thought she'd imagined it, she really had, but they were pressed so tight together now that she couldn't miss the fact that something other than his legs was pressing against her butt. Lee panicked for a second. As much as she might not be experienced in the sex department, she had access to the internet and she wasn't an idiot. This was straight out of some YA novel or something on the CW. If she was in one of those books or shows, she'd know how to say something appropriate, maybe make light of it and excuse herself from the situation. Did she even want to do that? It wasn't that she didn't find him attractive. Blind, deaf and dumb people found Lincoln attractive. It wasn't even like the thought of having sex with him hadn't crossed her mind, but it'd been an idle 'what if', not really something she'd seriously given a lot of thought. Now suddenly she was giving it serious thought. Suddenly she could see the way they fit together, physically and personally. Vivid images of them doing something other than lounging on this couch started presenting themselves and she swallowed hard, trying to stay as still as she could so that she could clear her mind.

She opened her mouth to say something, anything that would break this train of thought, when she caught the shaky breath he pulled in followed by the yawn and the lazy sweet kiss against her palm and yet another yawn. Relief flooded her. Train of thought thoroughly derailed, so much so that she felt bad for thinking those things in the first place. He was tired...really bone weary and not really thinking straight. The t-shirt comment just proved it. He didn't really want to have sex with her. She was just a warm body and his body was reacting without conscious thought. She was tired too, for that matter. That was why she was thinking these sexy thought about her best friend. It was silly really.

Somewhere deep inside a little part of her wailed in despair but Lee ignored it and smiled at him instead. "Smooth, Lincoln. Did you get that line from Roosevelt?" She asked him quietly, half expecting to get nothing but a snore from him in return.

[lincolnmiller]

"No, that one was me being an idiot." Lincoln murmured, yawning. His back arching and arms tightening around Lee, drawing her closer to him he pressed more comfortably against her and slipped his knee a little more comfortably between her legs.

Eyes drifting shut, he pressed a light kiss against Lee's neck and tried not to fall asleep mid-movie. It was kind of hard when she was so warm, comfortable, and when she felt so good in his arms though. It was kind of hard to do anything but murmur quietly to her.

"We should probably go to bed but I don't want to move." Lincoln murmured, hand stroking her stomach gently as he struggled to stay awake. "We should do this more often."

[thediceloveme]

"That's nothing new, Linc..." She said, trailing off when his knee between her thighs shifted again. She tried to say his name but it was turned into a laughing gasp as he pulled back again, burying his face in her neck. His voice had gone husky with sleep, vibrating low and against her skin. He was warm and all around her and she just wanted to give in, just fall onto her front and have him lay over her and sleep like that.

As much as she liked that idea, she had a class tomorrow morning for her degree and if she didn't get some kind of sleep she'd never take in anything. "We watch films together all the time." She said, yawning and blinking her eyes open trying to muster the energy to move.

[lincolnmiller]

"Lee used teasing, it was super effective." Lincoln murmured as her voice trailed off. He let out a soft laugh as he thought she gasped and laughed at his terrible Pokemon reference. Rubbing his knee between her legs, he sighed and held her tight. "Yeah, I know. But this, I like this. Sleeping with you. It's nice."

Lincoln yawned, brushing his lips against her neck as he settled his head against her. Eyes growing heavier.

[thediceloveme]

"Mmmm..." Lee mumbled, eyes falling closed again as his breathing started to even out and hers started to sync up with it. "S'nice. Really nice. But...bed. Should get to one." She opened her eyes again when he nuzzled against her. If she was honest, she'd love to just stay here. Common sense was a total bitch sometimes.

"Linc?" she asked quietly. If he was asleep she'd make the herculean effort and slide off the couch and head to his room to grab a shirt. She would not look at his bed because it would be closer than the guest room and she'd never make it. The plan was a good one. She turned her head to look at him and tried again. "Linc?"

[lincolnmiller]

Eyes closed shut, Lincoln tightened his hold on Lee in his sleep as he let out a quiet single snore before mumbling against her neck. Nuzzling Lee's neck, his hands slipped up her top a little more before he finally lay still against her. Happily sleeping away with Lee in his arms.

[thediceloveme]

It took Lee another thirty minutes to gather the strength to slip out of Lincolns grip. He was warm and his weight against her was comforting in a way she hadn't realised she'd wanted so it was an actual effort to gently lift his hand off her stomach and roll away. It wasn't elegant but she managed to slide to the floor and then sat up, watching to see if she'd woken him. He snuffled a little, brow creasing for a second before it smoothed out.

Standing, Lee couldn't resist reaching out to smooth a hand through his hair, brushing it out of his eyes before she grabbed the soft, familiar blanket and spread it over his sleeping form.

Lee walked on shuffling feet to Lincolns room, yawning as she hunted for a t-shirt to change into. She gave herself a pat on the back for making it to the guest room and just barely had time to change before she collapsed into the bed, dead asleep before her head hit the pillow.
