Sleep Together

[Olivia Darling]

Olivia couldn't really be certain what happened to her last night. She went to Aldrick for the same reason she ever went to him, for a release from the stressful life she had chosen for herself. What happened next, though, was slightly less typical than she had gotten used to. And it was mostly her fault. Something about the sound of his voice and the way his eyes pierced hers broke away any barriers she held outside his bed and for the first time in a long time she gave away the control she held so tightly. With every new order he gave she felt herself losing it more and more until she wasn't sure how she was going to take it anymore. It was good. Better than good. Aldrick was always good. This was amazing.

Laying in bed the next morning, Olivia was slowly starting to wake, back pressed against a bare chest she was getting to know very well. This was normal and almost as good as the sex. It was always easier to go to class and get through her day after spending the night in Aldrick's bed. He was warm and comfortable and never stopped holding her tight in his arms. This all should have been degrading. He ordered her around, physically moved her where he wanted her and most mornings when she told him he had to go he dragged her into a quicky against her complaints. She was a strong, driven woman who had broken more boys just by shooting them down than most girls had in bed. She was not supposed to enjoy submission. She didn't even know that was how she was. And the idea of any other boy treating her like that disgusted her. So why was Aldrick different? She had no idea. That was the beauty of it all. She didn't have to care when it was all done. Stress relief, remember?

For a moment she considered opening her eyes but quickly pushed it away. She was too comfortable. Olivia wasn't one to sleep in but for right now she decided to make an exception. Shifting just a bit she managed to get even closer, settling in for him to be the one to wake them up.

[Aldrick J. Montag]

Last night was unlike anything Aldrick had done in a long while. No, it wasn't the first time he'd done something like that. Nadja liked to play games. And when she asked, Aldrick hardly chose to say no. But this was different. Like it was the first time he'd truly meant it. It didn't quite make sense. But he didn't care to figure it out. It had felt good. And that was all that mattered. Better than all the other times with her. Just better than...well...

And Aldrick never broke hearts. When he was with women they knew it was only physical. And when it wasn't, they broke apart on good terms. There wasn't a time where he'd treated a girlfriend ill. No bad blood to get in the way.

Sleep had been wonderful. He always seemed to get a good nights rest when Olivia stayed over. Possibly because they were so tired from the sex the night before. Possibly. Or because it was just that comfortable.

No matter.

He felt her shift, bringing him to a slight consciousness. She moved closer, and he brought his arms tighter around her. Fully intent on keeping her there. He wouldn't be getting up. Not yet. He was too busy nuzzling into her hair.

[Olivia Darling]

This was an example of only physical. Olivia did not date. She had never been interested in trivial things like that. Not now. There were much more important things to take care of first. She needed to finish school and then get the job she wanted. Maybe after all that. Maybe. For now she just needed, well, to relieve stress. And Aldrick was better at that than any boy she had ever been with. So far he was lasting much longer than the others. Normally she slept with them a few times, got annoyed, and moved on. Aldrick was better than that. He knew what he was doing. He knew women and he didn't think she loved him. It was perfect.

She felt him nuzzle into her hair and couldn't help but smile a bit. He was always right there in her hair. She hadn't been wearing it up lately because of that. Not that she really knew that. It had just happened that way.

She sighed softly, contently, despite trying to pretend she was still asleep.

[Aldrick J. Montag]

Aldrick didn't sleep around, per say. He slept with a number of women. Yes. But he did care for them. In at least a platonic manner. He made his friends feel good. Which made him feel good.

He liked feeling good.

Her hair smelled good. She smelled good. There was nothing about Olivia that was unappealing. Even in his sleep he could tell that. She was intoxicaing.

Slowly he was becoming more aware. Unfortunately. He was enjoying his sleep. But this was alright too. He smiled a bit, eyes still closed, nuzzling a bit more.

Too comfortable.

[Olivia Darling]

Olivia couldn't help but wake up. It was her damn internal clock. It said get up, get ready, get to work. Aldrick's arms said otherwise, though, so she stayed. She could feel him moving a bit behind her, obviously not asleep anymore, but she wasn't about to let him know she was up just yet. Then he would know she was sleeping in. Normally she would have made a comment about him and her hair but this morning she held her tongue.

He nuzzled a bit more and she kept her eyes closed, unable to hold back the smile making it's way onto her lips.

[Aldrick J. Montag]

He didn't need to wake up. This was all he needed. To be in bed, comfortable. School could wait. Life could wait. For the most part.

And he liked her hair, sue him. It was pretty, and smelled good. It suited her well.

And it made for a wonderful pillow. But he was sure she knew that. It was, after all, always under her head when she slept.

A bit more of a nuzzle, before he sighed a bit. Soft, quiet sigh. But a sigh none the less. That says he's not sleeping any more this morning.

[Olivia Darling]

He nuzzled and she not only heard the sigh, but she felt it too. Near her ear and almost enough to make her shift a bit. Maybe, if she weren't so comfortable. It did sneak up on her, though, and it made her chuckle before she could stop herself. It was just so fed up. He was awake and she knew it.

[Aldrick J. Montag]

Aldrick would have left her alone. Really he would have. Except for the fact that she chuckled. Which meant she was awake. The liar.

Not that he minded that much. It was okay.

It just meant that he had to chew on the back of her neck for a moment. Then he was done.

[Olivia Darling]

Not a liar! Whatever.

He chews at her neck and her lip catches between her teeth. This was why she slept with him the first time. He was so damn good at getting to her. She tensed a bit, letting out a soft sigh when he stops.

[Aldrick J. Montag]

And there he goes. Smirking again. He can't really help it. It just comes out. Especially when he does something good.

Another quick bite for good measure.

"Good Morning."

[Olivia Darling]

Not good. Obnoxious. That's all he was.

She inhaled sharply at the new bite, unconsciously melting closer. She meant to say something snarky back to him but for some reason it just wasn't in her right then. She was comfortable and she liked where she was. She simply smiled a bit, eyes still closed. "Mhm."

[Aldrick J. Montag]

Fantastically good.

He smirked against her neck. She could pretend she didn't want him all she wanted. He knew. They all knew. Her body wouldn't react that way to him if she didn't. And he enjoyed that little fact.

"Sleep well?"

[Olivia Darling]

Whatever.

She chuckled, nuzzling into the pillow under her head a bit. "Mhm."

[Aldrick J. Montag]

Whatever nothing.

"Go back to sleep then."

[Olivia Darling]

She sighed a bit again, comfortable again. After a moment she spoke, trying to convince herself as much as him, not that she sounded very sincere, "I have things to do."
