FICTOBER18 DAY 8 PROMPT | “I know you do.”

fandom: Law and Order: SVU
pairing: Sonny Carisi/ Carmen
warnings: none

A phone ringtone jolted Carmen awake. She groaned and then fell back against the bed limply after having tensed up at the sudden noise. It wasn’t her phone. She felt Sonny pull his arm from around her waist and shift to grab his phone on the other side of the bed from where they had migrated in their sleep. He answered in a quiet groggy voice, no doubt trying to be considerate and not wake her up even more. A few moments later he ended the call, phone placed back on her bedside table before he turned to wrap his arm around her once more.

“I have to go,” he whispered against her neck. She reached for his hand to lay hers over top and threaded their fingers together for a moment.

“I know you do,” she replied in a sleep rough voice finally. Carmen turned in the bed and she could just barely make out a regretful expression on Sonny’s face. He leaned down to kiss her forehead before rolling over and pushing himself to a seat on the edge of the bed.

“My place tonight?” he asked quietly. She hummed in agreement and he turned to tuck the covers around her. The last thing she remembered before falling asleep again was another gentle brush of lips against her forehead.
