Enough of me for you

[hey35andholding]

It's late.

Probably somewhere past midnight, but she hasn't really noticed the moon's movement. Normally, after a good screw she falls right to sleep, but she's lying there instead, smelling Sam's skin and listening to him breathe as the night wears in.

So she lies still and lets time pass.

She can't even remember what month it is anymore.

He moves slowly and then feels her as he then looks down at her as he runs his hand over her back. He's a little groggy, a little tired and not all the way awake. But he knows that she's not sleeping like she should be.

Clementine will never get that - what it is about him. Under normal circumstances she would've been demanding presents, or commitments. Instead she just watches him in the dim light of the bedside table, running her finger over his scar.

"Go back to sleep," she murmurs. She's in a very serious mood, and not entirely sure she wants him to see her that way.

"I don' t think I can do that. You should be resting up Doll. Or talk to me give me a hint."

He whispers. He's been in over his head before and he's always found a way out or the out was left for him but this time he's falling and isn't looking for the safety net or parachute

"I can't sleep. It happens." She tucks her head against his chest. "I don't usually sleep with the guys I screw, y'know. You're special." It's really an old scar, poking at her, calling out from the past. But she's fallen asleep with Sam more than she's ever slept with anyone.

Sam then rubs her back then looks at her."Yeah, I understand do you need me to go to the couch so that you can rest?"

He wouldn't offer if he really didn't care.

"Never," she demands, hooking an arm around his waist. "You know I sleep better when I'm with you." Her hand rubs up and down his back in turn. He's sweet like this, and she hasn't really seen that side of him.

Sam smiles and then looks at her and touches her cheek his fingers running through her hair slowly and then looks at her.

"Okay just making sure. I will do what you need."

[hey35andholding]

Oh Sam, you're going to make her say it.

She mumbles it instead, into his chest, hopefully where he can't hear it.

"Don't leave me." She's asking things of him she's never asked of a man. It's sort of scaring her.

Sam then touches her cheek and then looks at her. "I won't leave you Clem, I don't have any intention of leaving you. I want you for a long time."

Part of her's relieved he heard her; the other part's just plain embarrassed. "I'm okay," she says. She watches him curiously. "For as long as it lasts? Or for as long as we want each other?" Crucial conjunctures.

Sam then kisses her slowly. " I know and you know I think it will last as long as we want each other."

It's just how he feels

[hey35andholding]

She can't even imagine not wanting him.

That's how serious this is.

She leans into the kiss, feeling his skin against her. It's a dreamy feeling, kissing him half-awake; timeless, classic. "I've left plenty of men before." She leans into his neck. "But not you." Never him.

Sam then kisses her cheek and then looks in to her eyes as he holds her against him and rubs her back.

"I don't want you to leave me. I don't want you to ever leave me. I don't see my ass ever leaving you."

Ohh if they only knew.

What's that old song about fools falling in love?

Clementine never did learn the words to that one. "Good. Then stay." She burrows against the solid warm softness of his chest and starts to drift to sleep.

Sam kisses her then hugs her to him and then lets his eyes close as he drifts off. Holding her as his heart is as warm as the bed.
