Charms yawned as she laid down on her bed. Looking to the time, she wondered how on earth Cameron even had this much energy at this time for such things. She rolled her head to the side in an attempt to look at him, he had brought some of his work back into their room with him to translate.

Charms hated when he brought work back to their room, it kept her up at night... and not in the way she liked.

She eventually sat up and walked over to Cameron, who was looking at a page with such attention he didn't even hear Charms' attempt to break him away from it. "Cameron?" she repeated snapping him from his trance. She yawned again as she pulled at one of his hands, "enough, let's go to sleep already."

Cameron looked to the page again, "nothing is keeping you from sleeping, Charms," he replied.

"Sure there is," she replied, "you."

Cameron raised an eye brow as he looked back at her, "I'll be there in a minute."

"You said that an hour ago."

"I never said which minute."

"Well I'm gonna make you pick this minute."

He raised an eye brow, "what?"

She snatched the page from his hand and raced across the room. Cameron groaned but didn't give chase as she stood on the bed. He had other sheets he could decipher instead of this one, but she knew he hated skipping parts. He had blown up at her when she skipped to the end of the book to know what had happened, she sometimes did it deliberately just to annoy him.

Cameron stood up and sighed. "Charms, now isn't the time for this."

Charms folded her arms, "and now isn't the time for you to work," she replied. She plonked herself on the bed and sighed, "I'm here, this is our bedroom and it's a time for sleep Cameron. You haven't been doing enough of that lately."

"Yeah because of you," he countered as he snatched the sheet back from her.

Charms frowned as she rolled onto her stomach. "So you haven't been sleeping very well?" Charms' voice was laced with worry. Cameron didn't like to sleep sometimes because of his nightmares.

Cameron froze halfway through his walking and sighed as he simply sat back down on the desk, Charms was quickly sitting on his lap. "Cameron?"

Cameron didn't like talking about what he dreamt about, and Charms knew that better than anyone. He had been having nightmares since he was younger. Charms had the occasional one, but his were ones he had to deal with on a daily basis... or more a nightly basis.

Cameron tapped her on the nose. "Go to sleep Charms," he instructed picking her up and walking over to the bed and attempted to place her there. But her hands never left his neck, forcing him to lean over her petite body.

"Only if you do too," she replied.

Without much time for preparation, Charms gave him a soft kiss on the lips that felt like a butterfly landing and then retreating. Cameron blushed slightly and looked away from her.

Charms let off a giggle at his sudden shyness as she kissed him on the cheek and snuggled her nose into his face. Cameron was quick to return a sweet kiss to her and leaned into her, sending her whole being into the blankets and sheets beneath her. She felt Cameron's cool fingers find her face and his other remain on her hip. She felt her stomach begin fluttering under him and felt his gentle caresses.

His lips lingered from her own and touched her soft cheeks and neck before finding its way back to them. He got bold once or twice and travelled further down, only to tease her and come back up.
