My padawan is a restless sleeper. If it weren't so sithly cold, I'd move away from him just so I could get some sleep.

Who am I kidding?

Obi-Wan rolls, his head landing in the crook of my neck, breath warm on my throat. One arm lands across my chest as he snuggles closer, instinctively seeking the warmth of my body.

I wouldn't move away for anything in this galaxy or the next one.

The moon is swaddled in a thick blanket of clouds. It is so dark that I can just barely make out his fine features.

But I don't need to see him.

For I can hear him. Each soft breath he takes is a comforting and familiar sound. Many is the night when I have stood in the doorway to his room listening to the quiet in and out of his breathing.

And I can smell him. He smells of wood smoke from the fire. The strong scent of a long day's walk clings to his skin. The spicy tang of the shampoo he uses has long worn off, but there is still a trace of his own unique scent lingering in the soft hair I nuzzle into.

I can feel him. His warm body still presses against mine, shifting incessantly, trying to expend the excess energy that leaves him tossing like a small boat on an angry sea. Always in motion, my padawan is.

I long to taste him. To press my mouth to his, to bathe his exquisite flesh with my tongue, gathering up all the flavors of Obi-Wan. I wonder what his mouth tastes like? His throat. The soft skin behind his ear. I long to savor his nipples, his belly, his cock. Everything. All of him.

Too much. I want him too much.

And it can never be.

Can it?
