Small arms wrapped over him and warm small body pressed against his back. He could hear and feel the soft snore against his skin.

Slowly turning, he made sure to keep the small arms around him. Pressing a kiss to smooth forehead, he closed his eyes and waited until the sun rose, bringing them closer to the final chapter.
