It was around 3:00 in the morning. You were sound asleep beside your husband, Sasuke. Suddenly, he woke up, propping himself on his one elbow. He looked down at your peaceful form as he brushed his jet black hair off of his face. He leaned down your towards head, his warm breath fanning onto your cheek.

Sasuke: Dobe... he murmured in a hushed voice, watching your sleeping form with half-lidded eyes.

He watched how your messy blond hair was fanned against the pillows, how your chest heaved up and down as you breathed. He took your hand in his while you slept and kissed it before placing it gingerly on his cheek, fingers intertwined.
