Mina relaxed into him as he pulled her close, wrapping his arms around her both affectionately and protectively. It was a welcome gesture, much needed after a tense evening. Truthfully, she believed that it might be awkward being so close to him in this way. It seemed silly, considering she had sat on his lap, had kissed, and embraced. She closed her eyes, a content smile making her appear peaceful even at his mention of Terra, which might have stirred up feeling of jealous had she not been so tired. “Perhaps she’s right then. I wouldn’t know, of course.” She yawned, meaning to say more before her exhaustion got the better of her.<br/><br/>The next morning she awakened after a night of being in his arms. It was the first time she’d done so by herself in quite a while. Usually there was some kind of tussle or negotiation involved, but she was surprisingly rested and energized. For a while, she enjoyed the feeling of his body against hers. Her hips were flush to his, able to feel the hardness and heat of his member as it pressed against her round cheeks. She planned to ignore it, though she was aroused and intrigued by the stiffness. He must have realized that his manhood was erect since he pulled away from her for the first time in several hours. The warmth of his body leaving her made her feel cold, though blankets were draped over her hips.<br/><br/>Mina rolled onto her back, staring up at the crystal chandelier above her bed before looking over at Syn on his stomach. “Good morning,” she whispered, pushing herself up so that she was sitting. Peering over at him, she noticed traces of pain in his expression. “Syn, are you alright? You look . . . uncomfortable.” There was confused tone about her voice, but she wasn’t as oblivious as she might have tried to convey. “I wasn’t a wild sleeper, was I?” She asked with a smirk, knowing that years of having an entire bed to herself might not have made her the most accommodating bed companion.<br/><br/>Mina kissed his cheek and rubbed his back softly. “Would you like me to massage you?”
