You weren't woken by the alarm or the light, but by a heavy, comforting warmth pressed firmly against your stomach.

As you began to run your fingers through his messy red hair, his breathing hitched. "What are you doing?" he murmured, his voice a low, gravelly rasp of sleep that vibrated against your skin.
