I can’t seem to decide if I actually really like this or do not like it at all. Rather than using the game for reference, I actually used the face model for Kaidan as a reference, so there are some subtle differences and I had to make up what I thought looked appropriate for the uniform that was similar to in-game stuff.
I’m not sure I’m going to get a smut prompt filled today (I’ll try to do a short one!), because instead, I wrote this after work. I… don’t know what genre it is, because there’s a little of everything in here (except full-on smut, although it does give me an idea). Whatever.
Rating: M. 1158 words. Kaidan Alenko x Hazel Shepard, ME3.
Hazel comes back to consciousness slowly for once, leaving her dream naturally instead of being forced from a nightmare. She blinks her eyes open and then closes them again without moving another muscle. She’s in her cabin, in her own bed, and Kaidan is with her. He’s sitting up at her side, one hand combing slowly through her hair. His other hand is holding a datapad up to his face, and he’s watching something on it with the sound muted. The movement of his fingers through her hair is a steady rhythm, and she doesn’t want to risk disturbing that by letting him know she’s woken up.
She sits and enjoys the warmth of his body next to hers and is almost asleep again for a second unscheduled nap when his body suddenly flinches and his hand stops its soothing movement.
He resumes again, but the spell is broken. Hazel opens her eyes again and peers up at him, turning her head just enough for him to notice she’s joined him.
“Hey,” he says, immediately shutting the datapad off. He puts it on the bed next to him, on his other side where she can’t see it, and brushes a strand of hair away from her forehead. “I was wondering when you’d wake up.”
