"I'm going to sleep." Little Snake said, standing up and heading toward the guest bedroom.

The Dragon King looked up from his book. "Where are you going? Our bedroom is this way."

"I already told you, I'm not sleeping with you." Little Snake huffed and kept walking.

The Dragon King sighed, closed his book, and quickly caught up to him. He grabbed Little Snake’s hand and pulled him back.

"Wha_ah!" Little Snake yelped as he was suddenly lifted off the ground.

The Dragon King easily threw him over his shoulder and carried him toward their bedroom.

"Put me down!" Little Snake kicked his legs, struggling to get free.

The Dragon King didn’t let go. "You’re too stubborn."

"I’m not stubborn, You’re just-ugh! Let me go!"

But the Dragon King ignored him and kept walking. When they reached the bedroom, he set Little Snake down on the bed and leaned over him, placing a hand on either side so he couldn’t escape.

"Don’t even think about leaving." the Dragon King said, looking straight at him.

Little Snake glared, his face slightly red. "You can’t just carry me around like this."

The Dragon King smirked. "I already did."

Little Snake huffed and turned his head away. "I’m still not sleeping with you."

"You are sleeping here, and that’s final." Dragon king said firmly.

"You-" Little Snake started to argue but knew it was pointless. He sighed. "Fine. But stay away from me. No touching."

The Dragon King raised an eyebrow. "No touching?"

Little Snake crossed his arms. "Yes. Stay on your side of the bed."

The Dragon King smirked. "Alright, I won’t touch you."

Little Snake narrowed his eyes, not fully trusting him. He climbed onto the bed and wrapped himself in a blanket, keeping as much distance as possible.

The Dragon King lay down beside him, resting on his arm as he watched him.

"Stop staring at me." Little Snake muttered.

"I can’t help it. You're cute when you're mad."

Little Snake threw a pillow at his face. "Shut up and sleep."

The Dragon King chuckled, catching the pillow and placing it under his head. "Good night, little one."

Little Snake huffed and turned away.

Silence filled the room for a while, but just as Little Snake was about to fall asleep, he felt a warm arm wrap around his waist.

His eyes snapped open. "I said no touching."

The Dragon King hummed lazily. "I’m not touching you."

"You literally have your arm around me!"

The Dragon King tightened his hold. "It’s just resting here."

"Take it off!"

"No."

Little Snake gritted his teeth. He was too tired to fight, and the Dragon King’s warmth was comforting as always. After a long pause, he sighed.

"Fine. Just this once."

The Dragon King smiled against his hair. "Mm."

Little Snake closed his eyes, pretending not to notice how the Dragon King’s hold became even firmer.
