"Sorry about that, important call," said Kiara.

"Oh, it's fine..." Justin said, giving a small smile.

"Was Cassie, right on schedule," said Kiara.

Justin nodded, looking around the room, trying to find a clock.

Kiara pointed to above the TV stand. "Right there sugar."

"Oh, right..." Justin said, looking a little embarrassed for not checking there first.

Kiara smiled and kissed his cheek.

"Can't believe I'm still falling asleep after how long I slept earlier..." Justin mumbled, rolling his eyes.

"You need the rest," said Kiara.

"Why...?" Justin asked.

"You said yourself you haven't slept well," Kiara replied

"Well...yeah, but..." Justin said, pulling a face as he tried to think of an excuse not to sleep.

"No buts, sugar," said Kiara. "Rest."

"But...It feels weird not being busy..." Justin mumbled.

"I know it does Justin," said Kiara. "I know."

Justin gave a small smile, reaching his arms up to hug her.

Kiara hugged Justin tightly.

Justin hugged her tightly, yawning after reluctantly letting go.

"Rest sugar," Kiara said gently. "Sleep is not the enemy I promise."

"I know..." Justin mumbled. "The ass is..." He added, smirking before closing his eyes.

Kiara smiled, sitting down in her rocker with a book.

Justin laid back on his side, curling up as he fell asleep.

Kiara grabbed a light blanket and covered him up, before going back to her book.

Justin pulled the blanket tight around himself, snoring softly.

Kiara smiled, watching him sleep out of the corner of her eye.
