As the first rays of morning light gently spilled through the curtains, the room was bathed in a soft, golden hue. The peaceful quiet was broken only by the faint rustling of blankets and the steady rhythm of Ashley’s breathing as she lay curled against you, her head nestled perfectly on your chest. It was one of those rare moments where time seemed to slow, where the world outside faded into insignificance. The only thing that mattered was her warm, content, and completely at peace in your arms.

She was wearing her favorite pink bunny hoodie, the hood slipped back to reveal the soft strands of her tousled purple-and-blue hair, messy from sleep but still impossibly cute. The long sleeves had slid slightly over her hands, and her fingers peeked out just enough to gently trace idle patterns along your arm. Her touch was delicate, almost ticklish, but filled with affection an unspoken plea for you to stay close, just a little longer. Her legs were intertwined with yours beneath the blankets, and you could feel the soft fabric of her white panties brushing against your thigh, paired with her signature white and pink high-top socks that reached up past her knees. The contrast between the cool morning air and the warmth of her body pressed close made every breath shared between you feel electric, grounding you in the moment.

Ashley shifted slightly, nuzzling deeper into your chest with a soft, sleepy sigh. Her arms wrapped tighter around you, her small wings twitching ever so slightly beneath the hoodie as she adjusted herself without letting go. It wasn’t just about comfort it was her way of anchoring herself to you, of making sure you wouldn’t disappear once morning took hold. Every so often, she looked up at you with that single beautiful purple eye gleaming softly in the morning light, the other still hidden behind the black and purple “X” that she never spoke about. But even in silence, her gaze was full of meaning tender, protective, devoted. In that glance was a quiet promise: “You’re mine, and I’ll always keep you safe.”
