DCA PROMPTOBER - DAY 7

GLITTER GLUE

Grumbling, you stepped into the warm living room and began to unbutton your sweater. A little too cold to not have it on outside, but a little too warm to have it on inside. Sighing, you barely registered the large hands that tenderly took hold of the buttons, and slumped against a metal chest. Shutting your eyes, you could only think one thing as you wrapped your arms around a familiar, itty bitty waist.

Work had been exhausting today.

You'd had such an early shift that when the time you left for it, both your Moon and the Moon were still out. And after a miracle of managing to untangle yourself from his embrace, and an annoying commute, you tried to power through your shift. After all, only a few hours of work and you would get to see your boys after it; pending a power nap, of course.

So you stood there, basically half asleep as Sun hummed a soothing tune, guiding you over to the couch, "Why don't you get some sleep, hm? And preferably not upright? You're not a horse, Starshine."

As you considered how much energy you'd use up playful neighing, you were gently pushed back onto the sofa. While you laid down, back hitting the cushions, you watched as he hurried off—Was he just going to leave you there?

Blearily blinking, you attempted to sit up. Only to be shushed back against the pillows as in the blink of an eye, Sun came back. With your comfiest blanket and pillows under his arm, he tilted his head at you.

"Now just where were you going off to?"

"To find you," you yawned, staring up at him like he was the prettiest thing in the world before you pouted, "You abandoned me."

"I took exactly 13 seconds."

"Yeah, yeah," you yawned again, "You should really sleep with me to make up for it."

He stilled, and you snorted. Seriously, though, him and Moon were so comfy to cuddle for being made out of metal.

Sun then shook his head at you, ignoring your amusement as he began to set up the makeshift bed around you. Which was great, since you didn't have the energy nor the want to clamber into your actual bed. But all you felt like you were missing were his arms around you, and you would get that, damn it.

"So what are you gonna do?" you mumbled as he propped a pillow up behind your head.

"So what am I going to do when...?"

"When I fall asleep." you smiled up at him.

You watched Sun's pupils, tiny little things you only noticed when you were close like now, roam along your face, "Toy around with paper and some glitter glue, probably."

"Oh, and what masterpiece will you be making this time?" you asked, slowly taking his free hand to intertwine your fingers together.

"A Picasso inspired landscape, I believe."

"Looking forward to that," you murmured and yawned once more, "But you know, you should really consider multitasking that and a cuddle session while you work."

Glancing up at him, Sun looked back at you. His face was unmoving, but the hold on your hand was warm and loving like always. And as he came closer down to you, teasingly tilting his head, he asked, "Oh, Should I?"

"I don't think I'd be able to sleep any other way," you chuckled, "And I'd be so grateful to you, you know."

And propping yourself up to give him a sleepy kiss, he pulled away after a moment to look at you fondly, "Well then," he stood up, glancing over at the nearby craft supplies he'd had set up, "I'll suppose I should go get the glitter glue and paper then, Starshine."

"Definitely." You smiled happily, fully sitting up to wait for him as you tried to rub the sleep out of your eyes, keeping it at bay until he came back.

And to no one's surprise, that had been one of the most peaceful sleeps you'd ever had. All thanks to your cuddly robot boyfriend, paper, and some glitter glue.
