The girl smiled softly, the darkness of his chest sort of overtaking her and eventually pulling her off to sleep. It wasn't long until she felt Sage tugging on her hand, though, and gave a heavy sigh before moving to pad up to bed quietly, eventually flopping down ontop of him with a heavy sigh, kind of burying her face into his chest and wrapping her arms tightly around him with a small huff of air.

Sage sort of felt bad moving the girl, but the bed would really wind up being much more comfortable than the couch. He flopped onto it quite happily once they got to the bedroom though, curling up with Mari and moving the blankets over the both of them once she'd flopped onto him. He was out pretty quickly after that, slipping into a deep sleep.

The woman let out a heavy breath after a moment, moving to bury her nose into his chest and eventually just slipping off to sleep... thankfully, a rather deep one. She had a few passing dreams, but nothing of importance thankfully enough. She woke up pretty early the next morning, though, just breifly before curling back up into her husband and just slowly falling back to sleep. It would be a nice day... they only had another day or so left, so admittedly being able to relax for a bit would be wonderful.

Sage was out like a light, and he stayed that way for quite a while. He only woke briefly through the night, before rolling to curl up more and drifting back off again. He let out a sort of groan when Mari moved the next morning, half asleep. Though, when she settled down again he slipped off after her again gladly. He stirred a couple of hours later again, fingers tightening slightly around her as he sort of slowly woke.

The woman gave a small groan when she felt him shift, though curled up into him when he tightened his hands around her. She woke up slowly... it was admittedly pretty late in the day, and she sort of loved that she didn't feel like she had to be anywhere. She sighed and once she was a bit more awake moved to run her free hand up and down his side with a small sigh, sort of moving to press a very tired and sloppy kiss to his shoulder.

Sage was dimly aware of her groan, though he wasn't quite awake enough yet to respond. He sort of just tugged her into him a bit tighter, letting out a kind of tired grunt when she moved to kiss his shoulder. He moved to sort of just bury his face in her chest with a huff of air, not willing to wake up quite yet. She wasn't getting up yet obviously, either, but he was more than content to fall back asleep if given the chance.

The woman gave a small, tired chuckle before settling back down and running her nails lightly up his back, though eventually started to drift off to sleep again, her soft breaths sort of slowing down as she got comfortable. She had to admit, this was wonderful... she loved being at home with the kids, of course she did, but she also loved getting to spend some time with the man she loved more than anything. Quite often she thought back on when they first met... if she'd been more sour towards him, even a little, she might not be in this position, which sort of amused her.

Sage settled down quickly enough once Mari had seemed to half drift off again too. It was quite fine with him ....he did enjoy just cuddling like this. No responsibilities, no chores had to be done, no kids waking them up at the crack of dawn. Mari let him sleep in pretty often, of course, but it wasn't quite the same without her there with him. He did miss the kids and the horses, and of course little Amber...but this was nice too. After another hour or so though, he'd sort of moved to stretch a bit, more awake now than before, though still rather lazy.

The woman just drifted off again, really just getting comfortable... soon enough, though, it was about lunch time when she started to wake up and surprisingly she just wasn't hungry at all. She sighed and moved to look at Sage before shaking her head, a sort of tired smile across her face as she moved to peck his lips, really just happy to be around him for a little while. She sort of sighed and moved to peck his nose, then flopped down on his chest, admittedly still a bit tired.

Sage had settled down a bit after stretching, peering over at Mari still somewhat sleepily, but mostly lazily. He hummed lightly when she pecked him, a dumb grin spreading itself across his face. He sort of flopped over onto his back, letting Mari stay on top of his chest, just sort of laying there and letting himself slowly wake up more as time went on. They had plenty of time, after all, and they were comfortable so there was really no reason to get up.
