(A/N): Picture above is what Blackbeard looks like. Blackbeard is a Black Anubis pharaoh hound.
Jim wakes up to the feeling of something moving slightly on top of him.
Jim's eyes shoot open and he looks down notice Ember's body resting peacefully on top of his.
Jim gulps, he doesn't exactly know how he got in this situation or how to get out. He doesn't want to wake Ember.
Ember's hair frames her face, her arms lightly stretched out. Her hands rest on Jim's chest and stomach. Her small body rises and falls with Jim's breathing.
Jim hesitantly rests his arms on Ember's lower back.
He smiles at how peaceful she looks.
Jim looks over at the tv and notices it's still on. They must have fallen asleep.
Jim sees Blackbeard laying on the floor breathing lightly.
He strokes the dogs back.
Suddenly he feels Ember move.
His attention snaps to her as she stretches against him.
He hears her yawn and then her eyes slowly open.
She looks up and her eyes go wide as she sees him.
"Jim! Hi. Crap, sorry," she panics as she sits up.
Jim shrugs.
"It's fine," he chuckles.
Ember's cheeks are red as she looks back over at Jim.
"How? What?" Ember says in confusion.
"I think we fell asleep on the couch," Jim laughs.
Ember looks at the still on tv.
"Oh," she mutters.
Ember grabs the remote and turns off the tv.
"Jim I'm really sorry. I hope I didn't make you uncomfortable," Ember rambles in a panicked tone.
Jim chuckles.
"It's all good Ember. No need to apologize. I don't really mind," Jim shrugs.
Ember shakes her head.
"I don't usually do that with people. I'm sorry I don't know what's up with me," Ember says again.
Jim shakes his head.
Jim reaches for Ember. He places his hand on her thigh.
"Ember look at me," Jim speaks calmly.
Ember looks into his eyes.
"You're fine," Jim tells her.
Ember takes a deep breath and then nods.
"Plus you're really small so I hardly even felt you," Jim chuckles as he stands up.
Ember shrugs.
"What can I say, I'm a small person," Ember chuckles.
Jim laughs.
"You're cute in your sleep too," Jim complements.
Ember's blushes and looks away from him.
"Thank you," she mutters.
"Are you going to stick around for breakfast?" Ember asks.
"Sure," Jim chuckles.
Ember stands up and walks into the kitchen.
