*Komui slept close to the edge of the bed nearest the window, because that was where Ai's crib was. He'd fallen asleep with two fingers hooked in the wooden bars, as she'd been grabbing clumsily at them before she'd fallen asleep herself. Now she slept content, and Komui slept as well, if a bit less contently. Just before his fiancee entered the room, he rolled over in his sleep, hand trailing away from the crib. He was still fully clothed, glasses folded on top of the pillow next to him, and his long hair had fallen into his face. He'd cried on that pillow earlier, until Ai stopped him by crying herself, and he found comfort in finding and feeding her a bottle.

Now, he lay, limbs splayed awkwardly, looking gangly as ever beneath the covers and taking soft, quiet breaths.*
