"Only had to bribe you 5 minutes, too." He smiled to himself, hoping he wasn't blushing too hard.

She smirked, eyes closed and sleepy. "Pretty sure I went over my limit."

He shrugged. "A little, yeah. But who's counting, right?"

She smiled, curling herself close to him and slowly drifting off. "You, for a little bit."

"Yeah," he said with a huff, "I lost track of time real quick."

She pressed a sleepy kiss against his skin. "G'night Runner," she said with a hint of a chuckle.

"Goodnight, love." He fell asleep with a happy smile on his face.

Time Skip

In the morning, Tessa didn't rest feel like getting up. The bed was too cozy and the warmth next to her was too good to leave.

Runner mumbled something in his sleep, his face twisted in a very unattractive but very funny manner.

Tessa groaned, knowing they had to get up soon. She gently pokes his side. "Runner," she whisper-sang.

"Mmmmmfph." was her response as he rolled over.

"I feel ya," she muttered, then said fuck it and snuggled into the covers, begging sleep to come back. It didn't work. But at least she was content to just lay there.

"What….time is it?" he mumbled, shoving his face into his pillow.

"'Round nineish," she replied without looking at a clock. She could feel the position of the sun in her bones.

He agreed that they needed to get up, but he really didn't want to. "Mhhhhhph."

"Ditto," she chuckled.

"Do I….gotta get up?" he asked.

She nuzzled the crook of his neck. "Mmmm," she hummed against his skin.

He shivered slightly, but didn't pull away. "Take that a a no?"

"It's not a yes," she said coyly.

He snorted, slowly snaking an arm around her side and pulling her closer to him.

"I kinda just want to stay here," she sighed, wrapping her own arm around him.

"But we probably got stuff to do." It was a weak argument, one Runner wasn't very sure why he was making.

"School's out today," she mumbled.

He settled back into his spot, smiling. "Lazy day. How long has it been since we've had one of those?"
